WATCH OUT

                          WATCH OUT
Genesis 4 vs 6: Why are you angry? The lord asked him. Why is your face so dark with rage? This is GOD questioning Cain, this write up is titled Watch out. What should we watch out? Why should we watch out? These we shall know, vs. 7: It can be bright with joy if you will do what you should. But if you refuse to obey, watch out. Sin is waiting to attack you, longing to destroy you; but you can conquer it. Adam and Eve gave birth to Cain and the next child Abel. Abel became a shepherd, while Cain was a farmer. Cain brought the lord a gift of his farm produce and Abel brought the fatty cuts of meat from his best lambs and they offered it to the lord. Most of us today are like Cain, we just offer and give to GOD as we ought, to fulfill all righteousness. What we are offering is not coming from our hearts. We don’t give cheerfully, Cain offered gift from his farm produce to GOD, but not the best of his farm produce. Our GOD deserves the best! Peradventure, you want to give anything to GOD give him the best of the best, let it come from the bottom of your heart. Many instances today, Christians give currency as offering, while they keep the clean notes for special events. It is wrong!
        However, Abel Cain’s brother gave GOD the best of his lambs and not only the best, but fatty cuts of meat. Abel gave from his heart; Cain might have given out quantity from his farm produce, but not quality from his farm produce. We believers of nowadays have to watch out on that, no wonder GOD accepted Abel’s offering and rejected Cain’s. Our GOD is a sovereign GOD, he deserve the best. Cain was angry when his offering was rejected and GOD questioned him why is your face so dark with rage? Cain was angry and vexed, with no admittance of what he has done. He didn’t acknowledge GOD, and refuse to admit he was wrong. He should have admitted for his wrong doings and obeyed GOD; but instead he refused; vs. 7 emphasize: It can be bright with joy if you will do what you should. Many believers are like this, they are ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of truth. GOD loves all, though he has favorite; but he created all. He loves Cain and equally loved Abel, but Cain failed to do the right thing, his face would have been bright if he had admitted of his wrongs and re- offered the best of his farm produce. Are you like Cain today? Blaming GOD for your circumstance, you don’t need to, just admit your wrongs and ask for his forgiveness. Come back to the knowledge of the truth and all shall be well with you again…..

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
