Pastor Sun East’s scripture of the week

In Matthew 19, Jesus rebuked the disciples for not allowing the children to come to Him.

Matthew 19:13-15
Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.

There will always be people in your life who will try to keep you, His child, from getting closer to Him. Jesus rebukes those kind of people. Do not let others keep you from running to Jesus, from getting closer to Him, from receiving His love, and spending time with Him.

Jesus always wants us to run to Him. When we come into His presence, He will put His arms around us and show us His love. Make a point to spend time with Jesus every day.

God bless you!

  1. And those people who try to keep us away from God are hurting themselves as well. They think they are protecting their independence, but they are losing great things they don’t even understand. This is all true Pastor Sun Hui East.

  2. I totally agree with Angelo about the painful outcome that will be a reality for people who want to pull us away from Jesus. It only makes sense that these people are cursing themselves as they sin this way… how can this not come back on their own heads? Thank you for posting the great scripture Pastor Sun Hui East.

  3. I know that my ex-husband was that person. When we first got married, we left Europe & came to the US. I thought things would get better. I had big plans for the two of us to serve God together. Instead, he became very difficult about anything related to church or serving God. I realize now that he had actually turned against God. Pastor Sun Hui East, he actually argued with me about joining a prayer meeting at church, yet he “pridefully” attends church every Sunday to this day.

    1. It would be really tough to have your husband react that way, I’m glad you had the strength to let him go.

  4. I have stopped allowing other people to pull me away from God. At first, it was difficult to even see that they were damaging my walk because they say they are Christians. Now I take the time to watch their “fruit”… I don’t need friends that like the world. I appreciate the good teachings Pastor Sun Hui East!

  5. Thank you for the reminder to spend time with the Lord each & every day. I truly hope, Pastor Sun Hui East, that everyone reading this blog will make a commitment to a daily prayer & Bible study time. This simple step, if kept every day, will change a person’s life & eventually set them free from every bondage.

  6. I really like this passage in the Bible. My co- worker knows I’m a Christian & suggested I look at your blog Pastor Sun Hui East.

  7. I love this passage, I missed see this post when it first came up… this blog is always an encouragement Pastor Sun Hui East. And thank you for the prayers for my daughter, she is doing much better!
