Matthew 5:38-42
Jesus' example of handling demands
1. Listen to God, and not the crowd.
John 8:28- His heavenly Father was His authority.
When it is God who is saying so, then we must give and not turn away. (Mark 3:20, John 9:4)
2. Find your own mission.
Jesus was called to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.
a. You do have a mission.
If you are not investing in spiritual things, then you are not listening to the voice of God.
b. God will not call you to do something that is contrary to another calling.
3. Accept and acknowledge your human limitations and needs.
Nearly every day of Jesus' life, there were slow times.
If you are not sure it is God who is calling you, then maybe you should think about saying 'no.”
