WHY TURN AWAY FROM GOD?

WHY TURN AWAY FROM GOD?
This is a big question before us today. Many strong Christians have turned away from GOD. Many know the truth and yet doeth it not. Many have other gods they worship and still come to worship GOD. You cannot serve two masters; you cannot serve GOD and also serve mammon. Many serve GOD when all things are blossoming and flourishing; but when things are not going well for them, they turn  away from GOD into something else. Many seek GOD’s face day and night when in a circumstances, but after overcoming the circumstances they turn away from seeking GOD. Why turn away from GOD? As a righteous man, you have battles to fight, as an unrighteous man you got battles to fight; but the Psalmist says “many are the affliction of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all; he kept his bones and not one is broken”. Why turn away from GOD? When He still remains the same. He is the same today, yesterday and forever. GOD of the good time is still the GOD of the bad times. Whether you are in a difficult situation or not GOD still remains GOD. He doesn’t change from been GOD. Why turn away from GOD? Roman 8 vs. 35 says”who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword?

            Furthermore, many accept Christ into their lives and think they won’t face tribulations, trials and challenges. He said “In this world, you shall face tribulations and trials, but be of good cheers; I have overcome the world”. He JESUS overcame the world for us, he has given us dominion over all circumstances come what may. Job faced trials, tribulations and challenges; he never turned away from GOD. JESUS himself while on earth faced trials; He never turned away from GOD. Expect tribulations, trials and challenges as far as you are on this earth, but never turn from GOD; because Roman 8 vs 37 says: “ Nay in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Paul said he is persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor power, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of GOD, which is Christ JESUS our Lord. Why turn away from GOD?

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...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
