WHAT REASON?

WHAT REASON?
This write up is a question to us all. What reason?
Reason is a motive for an action or determination. To every reason, there is a motive and action. GOD created us for a reason. He made us to worship Him and glorify Him. The bible says GOD is a spirit and they that worship Him, should worship Him in spirit and truth. GOD sent his son JESUS for a reason. He came to this world to die for all our sins. In Job 1 vs. 7: GOD said to satan, where have you been? satan answered the LORD, I have been wandering around on the earth. The devil wanders around on the earth for a reason; he wanders to steal, kill and destroy. vs. 8: Then the Lord said to satan, have you seen my servant Job? There is no person on earth like Job. Job is a good and faithful man. He worships GOD and refuses to do evil things. Vs. 9-10: satan answered and said, sure! But Job has a good reason for worshipping GOD. You always protect him, his family, and everything he has. You have made him successful in everything he does. Yes, you have blessed him. He is so wealthy that his herds and flocks are all over the country. The devil said, Job was faithful to GOD and worshipped him for a good reason. And he suggested if everything Job had were destroyed, he will curse GOD to his face. What reason! Many worship and serve GOD conditionally. We should serve and worship GOD unconditionally; because that is the reason he created us. Many are saved for these reasons; they accepted CHRIST for provision, miracles, supplication and protection. Such people serve GOD with their lips and eyes, but not their hearts. If you don’t serve GOD, you will surely serve the devil. Will you serve GOD, if all is well? Will you still serve him, if all is not? Will you serve GOD, when your soul is bitter? Will you serve him, when your soul is not? Will you serve GOD in your adversity? Will you still serve him, out of adversity? Will you serve GOD, when your joy turns into sorrow? Will you serve GOD, when your sorrow turns into joy? Will you serve GOD, when your sun set? Will you serve him, when your sun rises?
                 Job still serves GOD despite all he faced. Job 1 vs. 12: he said “when I was born into this world, I was naked and I had nothing. When I died and leave this world, I will be naked and will have nothing. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. Praise the name of the Lord! What reason! A song writer Matt Redman wrote, bless the Lord oh my soul, oh my soul worship his holy name, sing like never before, oh my soul, I will worship your holy name. The song comes up; it is a new day dawn, it’s time to sing your song again. Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me, let me be singing when the evening comes. There are many good reasons to serve GOD. The Psalmist says: I will bless the Lord at all times; his praises shall continually be in my mouth. Our motives toward GOD should be for eternity. We are to seek the Kingdom of GOD first and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto us. Job’s motive toward GOD was eternal, and GOD completely restored him. What are your motives towards GOD? It is well with us….

ONCE A FAITHFUL WIFE, AND NOW A PROSTITUTE

ONCE A FAITHFUL WIFE, AND NOW A PROSTITUTE! Compliments of the season from this side of the world to you all!!! Knowledge of the Truth is back and better this year. And I pray this year shall be a favorable one for us all. The word Faithful means reliable, worthy of trust, loyal and adhering firmly to a rule. It means consistency. It means fidelity. As a wife, it is expected you are reliable, worthy of trust, loyal and adhere to your husband’s rule and command. Ephesians 5 vs. 22: Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the LORD. The husband is in charge of his wife in the same way CHRIST is in charge of his body the Church. A submissive wife will be faithful without any conditions. She makes fidelity her watchword. A submissive wife obeys all her husband rule and command. A submissive wife is conscious of her wrongs. A submissive wife yields to authority (her husband’s). A submissive wife will always stand by her husband in thick and thin. A submissive wif

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

DREAMS ARE NOT DELUSIONS

DREAMS ARE NOT DELUSIONS This is a very fascinating topic, dreams are not delusions. Many do think dreams are just fictions, some see as a normal way of life. Many do not take their dream serious which shouldn’t be, some see dreams as delusions, some don’t even dream, why some forget what they dreamt about. Dream is a medium in which GOD communicates with us, he communicates to us through vision, trance and also consciences, but we are discussing about dream. Although, many a time what you are thinking about before you sleep, you might see it again; but majorly it does not continue like that. The bible said in Job 33 vs 15: In dreams, in vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they lie on their beds; he opens their ears in time like that and gives them wisdom and instruction. That is just a picture of dream, everyone has a dream land; but some’s has been tampered with by the devil. A dream land is an avenue for dreams; GOD gives instructions to us in the dream, ju
