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……….

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...
