BE CONSCIOUS

BE CONSCIOUS!
To be conscious means to be alert. It means to be aware and not caught unaware. If our adversary the devil roaring like a lion and walks about seeking whom he may devour, then we have to be vigilant and sober. 2 Peter 5 vs. 8: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour. The devil’s mission is to steal, to kill and to destroy. John 10 vs. 10: The thief comes not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. CHRIST came that we might have life and have it abundantly. We are to be conscious of these; CHRIST came that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3 vs. 8: He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the son of GOD was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. We are not to be ignorant of the devices of the enemies. We are to be conscious of his fiery darts and devices. Many find it difficult to forgive others, be conscious if GOD can forgive us who are we not to. Be aware the devil might outsmart you with that. The devil looks for means, ways and devices to outsmart and sieve one as wheat. 2 Corinthians 2 vs. 10 -11: To whom you forgive anything, I forgive it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of CHRIST. Lest Satan should get an advantage of us, for we are not ignorant of his devices.

               Moreover, JESUS told his disciples in Matthew 26 vs. 40-41: And He comes to the disciples, and finds them asleep, and say to Peter; what could you not watch with me one hour? Watch and Pray, that you enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. We are to be conscious by watching and praying, we are to pray and not faint. Luke 18 vs. 1: And He spoke a parable to them to this end that men ought always to pray and not to faint. If JESUS was tempted by the devil after fasting for forty days and forty nights, then we should expect his temptations too. JESUS was conscious and replied the devil with: It is written, men shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of GOD. It is written again, you shall not tempt the LORD your GOD. It is written, you shall worship the LORD your GOD, and Him only shall you serve. All these are GOD’s words and law. CHRIST was conscious of these and defeated the devil with them. Are you conscious of GOD’s words? 1 Thessalonians 1 vs. 16a : Let the word of CHRIST dwell in you richly in all wisdom. Kindly 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...
