On my own faith

“Son of man, if a land sins against Me by committing unfaithfulness, and I stretch out My hand against it and destroy its source of bread and send famine on it and cut off from it both man and animal, even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job were in that land, by their own righteousness (right standing with God) they could only save (deliver) themselves,” says the Lord God.

~ Ezekiel 14.13-14 AMP

This reminds me of Jesus’ parable about Lazarus the poor, a rich man, and Abraham (Luke 16.19-31)

We are saved individually on account of our individual faith and obedience to Jesus. It is my free will to exercise and the decision is mine and mine alone. Once saved, I am called to show the way to others, but I cannot carry them with me. Only Jesus can and it is up to them to surrender their own lives to Jesus.

Dear God
please help me live my life
as to show the way faithfully
so others will follow you
