EXPECT TEMPTATION

EXPECT TEMPTATION Temptation, temptation , temptation. What a word, what is temptation? Have you being tempted? Were you able to overcome temptation? The questions above were asked because everyone on one instance or the other have being tempted; even myself have being tempted before. If you have not being tempted before, expect it; if you have once being in temptation, expect more. Temptation is the strong desire to do or have something that you know is bad or wrong. You know it is wrong, yet a desire comes to do it; that is temptation. It is an evil act. A portion of the lord’s prayer says “ lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil ”. If you have being tempted before, you will have the impression at first to do the thing, and then before you know it; you see yourself doing it. However, behind every temptation there is a tempter, the tempter is the devil. He moves to and fro looking for whom to devour and tempt. He is behind the persuading act; he persuades one to do things which are wrong and can’t give one a happy end. You notice if you have being tempted before, there is this constant conviction all over you; before you know it you agree and consent. JESUS CHRIST was tempted thrice by the devil when, he had fasted for forty days and forty night. The tempter came to him, and JESUS overcame him by the word of GOD. If JESUS can be tempted , expect temptation; if JESUS can overcome the tempter by the word of GOD, then obviously we can too. JESUS knew temptation will surely come, that why he told us to watch and pray that we enter not into temptation. Don’t only watch, pray likewise; because our flesh is weak, very weak and can be easily tempted. But when you watch and pray, you surely won’t fall into temptation. Also, the scriptures said “resist the devil and he shall flee”. When you hear a voice convincing you to do what you know is a sin before your maker or wrong, it is the devil, resist him immediately and he shall flee. Temptation comes not only from the opposite sex, you can be tempted to change a document in your place of work or steal; it comes in diverse ways. Be prepared for it, because it shall come. Remember, if JESUS was tempted you can’t escape being tempted; and if he overcome it, then you can also overcome. Stay blessed…….share to others

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

THE UNLIMITED GOD 2

THE UNLIMITED GOD 2 I start with Psalm 34 vs.8: O taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man that trusts in Him. Only those who have tasted the Unlimited GOD’s signs and wonder can say. The Israelites saw His mighty works. At a point He rained manna from heaven that they may be fed. He is ALL SUFFICIENT. When you are looking at a way, He has diverse of other ways. His ways are not ours; neither are His thoughts ours. As the heaven is far from the earth, so His ways are. GOD’s power cannot be limited and confined. It is far beyond human comprehension. When He does something, He does to be glorified. The whole world sees and know of a surety this is the hand of GOD. I can’t write all about GOD’s supernaturality. It is beyond extraordinary. It is paranormal. It is preternatural. Ephesians 3 vs. 20: Now to Him that is able to do exceeding, abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works is us. GOD by his power work within us and does far mor...
