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.

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...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

THE SPIRIT OF PERSIA

THE SPIRIT OF PERSIA The spirit of Persia is a spirit of delay. It is a spirit of blockage. It is a spirit of almost there but not there. It is a spirit that withholds answers to prayers. It is the spirit behind unanswered request. It is the spirit behind cutting short of expectations. The bible says in Proverbs 23 vs. 18: For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off. The spirit of Persia prevents a door from opening and ensures a door is closed. Many a time when we pray, our prayers are answered; but a spirit called the spirit of Persia might hinder its manifestation. Many prayers have been prayed for years and has  been answered, but the effect of the answered prayers are not forthcoming. That is the spirit of Persia. Many are talented dreaming, seeing visions and have seen answered to their request, but it’s not manifesting in their physical lives. That spirit of Persia is no respecter of person, it must be dealt with for you to manifest. Romans 8 ...
