today I'm going to share with you five
Bible verses that have literally changed
my life and I trust that they will
change yours that's coming up next on
the beat hey my friend welcome to the
beat my name is Alan Parra thank you so
much for tuning in if this is your first
time here on this channel we answer
frequently asked questions about the
Christian faith we talk about dating and
relationships from a Christian
perspective and we do all sorts of other
Bible based videos as well so if you're
new consider subscribing now certainly
we should read and love reading the
entire Bible but sometimes as we're
studying the Bible there are those
verses that seem to jump off of the page
and into our heart that have a
significant profound impact on our lives
and so today I just want to share with
you five of those verses that have
tremendously changed my life and real
quick if you have a Bible verse that has
had that type of profound impact on your
life I would love to read it leave those
in the comments section below number one
on my list is second Timothy chapter two
verses 20 and 21 I'm gonna read it so
pay very close attention to what this
verse says it says in verse 20 in a
large house there are articles not only
of gold and silver but also of wood and
claim some are for special purposes and
some for common use those who cleanse
themselves from the latter will be
instruments for special purposes made
wholly useful to the master and prepare
to do any good work so think of it this
way in a wealthy home you may have paper
plates and then you also have China and
so paper plates are good they're useful
for common uses right but whenever you
have people over you break out that
special China because that is for a
special purpose so the analogy here is
pretty clear Paul's basically saying in
God's family there are all sorts of
different Christians you have some
Christians that are used for common
purposes and you have other Christians
that are used for special purposes so
Paul says the degree in which God will
use my life for a special purpose
depends heavily on me so if I have lust
and anger and bitterness and
unforgiveness and all this negative
stuff in my heart I can't pray and ask
God
do it I have to cleanse myself of these
things that are blocking and hindering
God's full anointing to flow through my
life so that I can be a special utensil
used by God for a special purpose number
two on my list is Philippians chapter 2
verses 3 and 4 and it reads do nothing
out of selfish ambition or vain conceit
rather in humility value others above
yourselves not looking to your own
interests but each of you to the
interests of the others so I chose this
verse because I personally have a
tendency towards being a very very
selfish person and so I can get in this
rut where I start thinking about what is
in it for me I'm I getting my needs met
Wow am I gonna benefit from this and
this verse just keeps me grounded in it
constantly the Holy Spirit constantly
brings us.first back to my remembrance
whether it may be in relationship with
my wife or my friends or my family
members and my co-workers or what have
you and constantly caused me to think
you know what how is what I'm doing in
the best interest of them how am i
putting their needs and their interests
above mine or am i selfishly looking to
get something out of this in return or
can I continually give up myself
without expecting anything in return
this verse has had a profound impact on
how I view my relationships with other
people and how I live my life as a
Christian the third one on my list is
Ephesians chapter 3 verse 20 and it says
now to him who is able to do far more
abundantly beyond all that we ask or
think according to the power that works
within us and this verse serves to
remind me again and again that we serve
a God that is greater than anything I
could ever fathom so whenever we realize
how big our God is we will start praying
bigger prayers will have bigger dreams
we'll have bigger visions for our lives
and we'll also start to exercise bigger
faith coming in at number 4 on my list
is Acts chapter 20 verse 24 and this
verse happens to be my personal life
verse and I would encourage you to get a
life verse as well beginning in verse 24
it says however I consider my life worth
nothing to me my
only aim is to finish the race and
complete the task the Lord Jesus has
given me the task of testifying to the
good news of God's grace
this verse reminds me that you know what
in the midst of all my other pursuits
whether it may be a career advancement
or educational pursuits or a ministry
growth or family or leisure or travel or
pleasure or what-have-you right that the
main focus in my life is not my comfort
it's not my happiness but it is me
fulfilling the very purpose that God has
on my life and similar to Matthew
chapter 6 verse 33 another bonus verse
which says seek ye first the kingdom of
God and His righteousness and then all
these other things that I'm seeking for
will be added to me so if I keep the
main thing the main thing which is my
relationship with God and fulfilling
God's purpose on my life then God will
give me all of those other things in
time if it is his will for my life and
the fifth and final verse that I chose
is Romans 8 verse 1 which says for there
is now no condemnation for those who are
in Christ Jesus and the reason why I
chose this verse is this you may not
know this but for years and years I
struggled with shame guilt and living in
condemnation because I wanted to please
God so very badly that every single time
that I would mess up fall short slip up
make a mistake whatever you want to call
it I would just lock myself away in a
prison of shame and guilt and
condemnation because I was so frustrated
with myself that I did not meet the
expectations that I had set for myself
in terms of obeying God with my life and
this verse reminds me that you know what
Jesus Christ has freed me from all of
that guilt and all of that shame and all
of that condemnation and I don't need to
live in that state any longer and so now
whenever I make mistakes whenever I fall
short all I simply do is confess my sins
to God I repent of those sins and then I
move on and move forward in Jesus Christ
no longer living in shame or
condemnation if you found this video
