FAITH, TRUST AND OBEY

FAITH, TRUST AND OBEY GOD is good to mankind, he is kind; despite man’s kind sinful deeds he still remains good to them. No one is good save our GOD. No one is kind save our GOD. His goodness and kindness to us is immeasurable, unfathomable; he has just being so good to us. He is a faithful and true GOD; even while we break his promise for us. We are all liars but he is not a man that lies, neither the son of man that repented of what he has said, has he said it, will he not do, has he spoken, will he not make good. His words are always right and true. Moreover, he sent his son JESUS to take away the punishment for our sins and unfaithfulness; his son obeyed his father and died, chastised, bruised just for GOD’s anger against us to be taken away. Shouldn’t we obey and trust such a fellow? “ Through his blood and our faith in him we are saved”. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not yet seen says the bible. GOD in his goodness and kindness has shown us a different way to be saved and reign in heaven with him; not by being good enough nor trying to keep his laws, these are essential too but by trusting in JESUS take our sins; and we shall be saved no matter what we might have done. Also, all have sinned and falling short of his glory; GOD declares us not guilty of offending him, if we trust in JESUS; but we are guilty if we don’t trust him. If someone could go through all JESUS faced, then the fellow worth trusting. We are saved by our faith in him and not our good deeds; if you do good things and do not trust JESUS, you are not saved. When you trust JESUS then obedience comes in, you will surely obey him. A song said trust and obey for there is no other way to be happy in JESUS, but to trust and obey.

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...
