NO RULE

NO RULE

Proverbs 25 vs. 28: He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. Many a times the spirit is willing not to, but the flesh does. The bible said the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. We must bring the flesh to subjection, so we don’t expose ourselves to the devil and his cohorts and also be a castaway at the end. Paul said in 1 Corinthians 9 vs. 27: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection; lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. Having rule over one’s spirit is important. It is self-control! Many find it difficult controlling themselves; self-control mist be applied in all we do. Esau sold his birthright to Jacob, because he lacked self-control for his appetite. Moses’s anger caused him a lot; he could not get to the promise land. Joseph’s ability to control himself sexually took him from prison to palace. 1 Corinthians 3 vs. 16-17: Know ye not that ye are the temple of GOD, and that the Spirit of GOD dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of GOD, him shall GOD destroy; for the temple of GOD is holy, which temple ye are. We are GOD’s temple, He expects us to be pure and holy. His spirit in us helps us do the things of the spirit. When one does the things of the flesh, he has no rule over his own spirit, but when one do the things of the Spirit he will have rule over his spirit. Galatians 5 vs. 16: This I say then, walk in the spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. The devil looks for loop holes to enter into our lives, walking in the flesh gives him that access. Also, walking in the spirit of GOD denies the devil of that access. Self-control is easy when one is filled with the Spirit of GOD. The bible says in Ephesians 5 vs. 18: And be not drunk with wine, wherein in excess; but be filled with the Spirit. The GOD’s Spirit helps men’s spirit, provided men can live in holiness and righteousness. GOD’s Spirit only dwells in a hearts that is pure and clean, who has not lifted up his soul to vanity nor sworn deceitfully. The bible said vanity upon vanity all is vanity. Many men have lifted up their soul to vain things, things that please the flesh and does not edify the spirit. 1 Corinthians 10 vs. 23: All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. All things of the world, edifies not the spirit, but the flesh. The earlier we know this the better for us. Many are not controlled in the aspect of sleeping; they sleep when they should pray. Praying, fasting, studying and meditation of GOD’s word, speaking in the Holy Ghost edifies the spirit. Get a copy of my new book Are you a Boulder or an Outcrop? It is well with us….

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...
