WHAT'S GAIN 1



WHAT’S GAIN 1
A gain is suitable, profitable and of great benefit. Ellen G. White says “if you lose heaven, you lose everything; if you gain heaven, you gain everything”. Something’s are worth gaining, some are worth losing. The world is not worth gaining, but heaven is worth gaining. Matthew 16 vs. 25: For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. Vs. 26: For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? JESUS told his disciples denying themselves, taking up their cross and following HIM is great gain. When a man denies himself of worldly things, bringing his flesh under subjection and doing the will of the Father GOD, it is gainful and profitable. Gaining the whole world is not profitable, it is a great loss. Not denying yourself of worldly things is not profitable, it is a great loss. A man can miss and lost everything, but missing heaven is the greatest loss. A quote goes thus; sometimes the best gain is to lose. It is a great gain, when a man loses things that will destroy his life. It is a great gain, when a man does the will of GOD. It is a great gain, when a man lives a sin free life. It is a great gain, when a man lives a righteous life. It is a great gain, when a man disassociates himself from worldly friends. The bible said evil communication, corrupt good manners. It is a great gain, when a man set affection on things above and not below. It is a great gain, when a man delights in the law of GOD. It is a great gain, when a man tells other about CHRIST. It is a great gain, when a man studies the word of GOD and does what is written therein. It is a great gain, when a man sees CHRIST in glory. It is a great gain, when a man inherits the kingdom of GOD. Matthew 16 vs. 27: For the son of man shall come in the glory of his father with his angels and then, he shall reward every man according to his works. It is a great gain, when a man finds wisdom and understanding from above. Proverb 3 vs. 13-14: Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver band the gain thereof than fine gold.
                       Gehazi was greedy of gain, he lost everything. He should have gotten a triple portion of anointing from Elisha, but he lost that because he wasn’t conscious of what to gain. We must be mindful of what we gain. Not all things are worth gaining; most things are worth losing. Proverb 15 vs. 27: He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. We have unjust gains and just gains. The unjust gains is worth losing, but the just gain is worth gaining. It continues tomorrow….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...
