NO vested interest

 

Matthew 5:8

King James Version

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: 

for they shall see God.

As I share Scripture with you, I have no vested interest.

As born again, I only accomplish what SPIRIT wants.

That we be born again, and know GOD's WORD.

That we believe in JESUS.

That we live by the Bible.

That we love GOD.

But first, what is vested interest?

Here are some definitions:

"a special concern or stake in maintaining or influencing a condition, arrangement, or action especially for selfish ends"

-- Merriam-Webster

"a personal stake or involvement in an undertaking or state of affairs, especially one with an expectation of financial gain"

-- Google

By ourselves, we have no power.

All power comes from GOD.

Which He gave to JESUS.

Only through JESUS can we do anything.

As these verses show:

Matthew 28:18

King James Version

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, 

saying, 

All power is given unto me 

in heaven and in earth.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.

John 17:1-3

King James Version

17 These words spake Jesus, 

and lifted up his eyes to heaven, 

and said, 

Father, the hour is come; 

glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, 

that he should give eternal life 

to as many as thou hast given him.

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Ephesians 2:8-9

King James Version

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; 

and that not of yourselves: 

it is the gift of God:

9 Not of works, 

lest any man should boast.

Colossians 2:8-10

King James Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you 

through philosophy and vain deceit, 

after the tradition of men, 

after the rudiments of the world, 

and not after Christ.

9 For in him dwelleth 

all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10 And ye are complete in him, 

which is the head of all principality and power:

Let us not be carried away.

With pride, vanity, illusion, delusion, and desires.

Let not the enemy's twisted works nest upon us.

Let JESUS govern our souls.

Now and forever.

That we may be worthy when He returns.

1 Thessalonians 5:23

King James Version

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; 

and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body 

be preserved blameless 

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Which can happen any moment.
