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…

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...

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...
