SETTING PRIORITIES.

SETTING PRIORITIES

Priorities ate status established in order of importance or urgency. Everyone has one priority or the other, many a time we find ourselves in conflicting priorities and will have to choose which is important to us. It is good to set priorities, but it is better when GOD is your priority. Many a time we choose other things and leave GOD behind, it is totally wrong. For instance, waking up so early in the morning going to work, you set to do list for the day before going out. Many don’t start their day with GOD; which shows he is not your priority. The Psalmist says early will I seek you LORD; that should be our watch word. Many don’t start their day with GOD, and just go out coming back home before remembering him. Get started with GOD early and He will direct you. The bible said redeeming the time, for all days are evil. It is essential to redeem the day with the blood of JESUS before going into it. GOD is Omnipotent and Omnipresence, He knows all; He is the same yesterday, today and forever. His ways are not ours neither are his thoughts ours. GOD should be our priority, when GOD becomes your pursuit, everything GOD has at his disposal become yours. The greatest contention among us humans is battle against ourselves. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. The flesh would prefer things of the world as a priority than GOD. That is why the bible says walk in the spirit, so you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh. We must kill the flesh, to set GOD as a priority. When GOD is your priority, all things work together for your good. The bible says we know all things work together for good, to them that love GOD, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Roman vs 28). Only those that truly love GOD will set him as their priority. When you set GOD as your priority, you do things of the spirit. The bible says “For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the spirit, the things of the spirit”. GOD himself is a spirit and must be worshipped in spirit and truth. My point in this write up is making GOD as your priority. Many have missed this fact and some are ignorant. Many only read the bible while in church, which shouldn’t be. Commitment to the word of GOD determines how far you know GOD. It is well with us……….

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...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

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...
