IF YOU...THEN,

IF YOU….. THEN,
Proverbs 25 vs. 28: He that has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. Lack of self-control gradually destroys a man’s life. A man without self-control is as defenseless as a city with broken down walls. Sin kills, sin destroys, and sin draws a man far from GOD. The bible said the soul that sins shall die. Also, the bible records the wages of sin is death. John 6 vs. 63b: It is the spirit that quickneth, the flesh profiteth nothing. Minding the things of the flesh causes lack of self-control; because you will always want to please the flesh. We need to return back to GOD so He can release His Spirit to control us. A man with the Spirit of GOD will be led to mind the things of the spirit. Those led by the Spirit of GOD have self-control and are called sons of GOD. We need to return to GOD so we can exhibit the fruit of the Spirit. Self-control is one of them. Galatians 5 vs. 25-26 (NIV): Since we live by the spirit, let us keep in step with the spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. Many look for vain glory, honors and popularity losing their self-control. Many envy others and lose their self-control. Proverbs 22 vs. 23: If you return to the Almighty, you shall be built up; you shall put away iniquity far from your tabernacles. We need to return to the Almighty so He can build us back. Many are like a city that is broken down and without walls. He is the Potter we are clay in his hands. Only GOD can rebuild us, remold us and restore us. We need to put away iniquities, for GOD cannot behold them. Proverbs 22 vs. 24: Then shall thou lay-up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. We need to let go of the desires of the world. We need to let go of the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and the pride of life; for they are of the world and causes lack of self-control. 1 John 2 vs. 16: For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
                

Furthermore, after doing all these highlighted above; then the Almighty shall be our defense, and we shall be blessed with precious silver treasure. Then, we shall delight in the Almighty and lift our face to GOD and He will hear us. Then, we shall decree a thing and it shall be established and GOD’s light shall shine upon our ways. Then, when men are casted down, then we shall say, there is a lifting up. Job 22 vs. 25-29: Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defense, and thou shall have plenty of silver. For then shall thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shall lift up thy face unto GOD. Thou shall make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shall pay thy vows. Thou shall also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee; and the light shall shine upon thy ways. When men are cast down, then thou shall say, there is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. If you can only return to GOD, then all these promises will be yours… Return back to GOD today, He awaits your return back to HIM. Share with others. It is well with us…

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
