CHECK UP ON YOURSELF
We all need to check up on ourselves frequently, because nobody knows tomorrow, nobody knows what happens in an hour time or days ahead. Are you really a Christian? Do you pass the test? Do you feel GOD’s power and presence more and more within you? Or are you just pretending to be Christians when actually you aren’t ? These questions are for us all. We need to check up on ourselves, if we are still on the right path. A Christian is someone that does as Christ does, what you can’t find Christ doing, you shouldn’t do if you are truly a Christian. But unfortunately, now most Christians do not act like Christ. They behave as though they are not Christians, unbelievers at times marvel and say he/she is a Christian, because of the fellow’s acts or behavior. As Christians we are to follow peace with all men and holiness, without which no man shall see the lord. If you want to see the lord in glory as Christians, you must live peaceably with all men and live a holy life.
However, there is a test for everyone on earth; JESUS himself while on earth faced the test. 2 Corinthians 13 vs 4 says: His weak, human body died on the cross, but now he lives by the mighty power of GOD. We too, are weak in our bodies, as he was, but now we live and are strong, as he is and have all of GOD’s power to use. GOD’s power is there for Christians to be strengthened in our weakness; to live and wax stronger on earth. Expect your test, but be rest assured the power and victory is there for you. Many pretend to be Christians, I attend church daily doesn’t qualify you as a Christian, you are only a church goer. A Christian serves GOD with all his mind and heart, a church goer goes to church, just to fufill all righteousness, for eye service. You can’t pretend you are a Christian, when you are not. GOD knoweth those that are his, his foundation nevertheless standeth sure, having this seal. Let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. A church goer might be saved and might not. If you are just a church goer, and not saved; you are just wasting your time. Finally, as Christians we are to feel GOD’s presence always, as many that are led by the spirit are the sons of GOD. We are to feel his power in us. Checkup on yourself now…..It is well with our soul..
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...
