Luke 10:38-4240 But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me.”

Luke 10:38-4241 But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! 42 There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”

MARTHA MARYLESSONS
FROM
HER LIFE
- There is a proper
time to listen to
Jesus and a proper
time to work for him
- Busyness of
serving God can
become a barrier
to knowing him
personally.
![Page 9: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Are you so busy doing
things in this world that
you’re not spending any
time with Jesus?
![Page 10: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What kind of hospitality
does Jesus receive in your
life?
![Page 11: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Are you busy planning &
running your life that you
neglect precious time w/ Him?
![Page 12: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Or do you respond to Him by
listening to his Word, then
finding ways to worship Him
with your life?
![Page 13: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Do not let your service
become self-serving.
![Page 14: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Service to Christ can
degenerate into mere
busywork that is totally devoid
of devotion to God.
![Page 15: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
It is the enemy's way to make us
busy with our lives and with our
own pursuits so that we will not
have time to seek God. If we're
not making the habit of seeking
God, little by little, we're stepping
away in the presence of God.
![Page 16: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
We're doing things in our own
knowledge, in our own ways, in
our own perspectives that's why
the burden/yoke becomes to
hard for us to bear. -Ministry,
work, family, relationships,
finances, health.
![Page 17: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Come to Me, all you who labor
and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest. Take My yoke
upon you and learn from Me, for I
am gentle and lowly in heart,
and you will find rest for your
souls. For My yoke is easy and
My burden is light.” Matt 11:28-30
![Page 18: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
THE TRUTH
![Page 19: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The yoke,man's burden
comes as a result of the
things we do ok our own
strength, our own plans,
our own wisdom.
![Page 20: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The yoke is destroyed
because of the anointing-
and the anointing comes
in the presence of God.
Isaiah 10:27
![Page 21: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Jesus is inviting us to
come to him in our daily
lives. He wants us to
pursue Him first before
anything/anyone else.
![Page 22: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

DEVOTION
![Page 24: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Martin Luther understood the
importance of time spent with God.
The more he had to do in a day,
the more time he spent in prayer.
He said, “I have so much to do that
I must spend the first 3 hours of
each day in prayer.”

INTIMACY
![Page 26: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
John 15:55 Without him we can do nothing
![Page 27: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The life we live, we live thru Christ,
living out through us. Everything
we do is based on Christ in us, and
in Christ in us is based on time
spent with him.

To know God and make him
known.

COMMAND.”

NURTURE
![Page 33: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Many of us don't want to bother
God too often with our problems
and worries so we store up
problems and don't bother God
unless we have crisis. He sets it up
so we are in constant need of him-
so that we can be in a constant
fellowship with him.
![Page 34: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
GO
![Page 35: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Therefore go and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and
teaching them to obey everything
I have commanded you. And
surely I am with you always, to the
very end of the age.
Matt 28:19-20
![Page 36: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
When we seek God, all other
things will come.
![Page 37: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Any time we seek a
characteristic or ideals, we get
out of balance and a truth
replaces THE TRUTH. All balance
is rooted in HIM.
![Page 38: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Most people only come to God
in crisis situation, when they
FEEL THE URGENCY.
![Page 39: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The truth is, every moment
leaves us completely helpless
without Him.
![Page 40: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
CONCLUSION
![Page 41: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
God is calling us to Himself. More
than anything else he wants what
every child wants from their
parent. He wants what every wife
wants from her husband. He wants
what every lover wants from his
love- TIME. He wants to spend time
with you,
He wants your love.
![Page 42: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
The heart of God beats to spend
time with us. His great desire is to
have n intimate relationship with
us. God is more interested in us
doing something WITH HIM, than
doing something FOR HIM.
![Page 43: SERIES BREAK - PERSUIT OF GOD - SIS. KAREN LIMOS-MIRA – 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051520/58edc6001a28ab26538b462f/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Imagination is not enough.
Doctrine is not enough. Preaching
is not enough. God must be
experienced, gazed upon,
enjoyed. God meant for us to
experience him in a personal way
so that we can also share Him in a
personal way.
