STANDING ON THE PROMISES



STANDING ON THE PROMISES
A promise is an affirmation. A reason to expect success. A hymn lyric says: Standing on the promises that cannot fail, when the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, by the living word of GOD I shall prevail; standing on the promises of GOD. There are promises and there are promises. Many a times promises from men fail, but promises from GOD never fail. GOD never fails; Numbers 23 vs.19: GOD is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent; hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken and shall he not make it good? Standing on the promises of men is trusting in the arm of flesh. Standing on the promises of GOD fails and fades not, it stands forever. The arm of flesh fails. Jeremiah 17 vs. 5: Thus saith the LORD; cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart depart from the LORD. Vs. 6: For he shall be like the heath in the desert and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. Vs. 7: Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. Vs 8: For he shall be as tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. GOD honors his words than his name; his words are his promises for us. They are affirmation for us, and application of these words with our belief works for us. Standing on GOD’s word is not sinking sand, it is a solid rock; standing on men’s promises is sinking sand. Job stood on GOD’s word; this helped him come out of his circumstances. Job 19 vs. 25: For I know that my Redeemer liveth and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. Job 42 vs. 2: I know that thou canst do everything, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. Are you in a storm? Do you still doubt GOD’s promises? Are you still paranoid about GOD’s promises? Are you in difficult circumstances? Are you scared of tomorrow? All you have to do is to stand on GOD’s promises, believing it will come to pass.
                      2 Corinthians 1 vs. 20: For all the promises of GOD in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of GOD by us. Every word in GOD’s word is yea and Amen. We just have to key into them because; they will surely come to pass. Stand on GOD’s promises and belief, it will work for you. 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
