EVERY GOOD THING!

EVERY GOOD THING!
Good things are things worthwhile; they are beneficial and favorable. Good things make a man comfortable, and make things easy for him. A good thing helps a man thrive and prosper in his doings. Everyone desires good things, but only few enjoy good things. There are good things that matter in life which when a man lacks; life becomes unbearable. There are good things a man shouldn’t lack. Isaiah 65 vs. 21-22: And they shall build houses, and inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build and another inhabits; they shall not plant, and another eats; for as the days of a tree are the days of my people; and my elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. Building good houses and inhabiting them, planting and eating the fruit, not building for another to inhabit, not planting for another to eat, having long life and sound mind as the days of the tree and enjoying the work of one’s hand are good things. 3 John 1 vs. 2: Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. Prospering in all you lay your hands, having good health, sound mind are good things. Proverb 18 vs. 22: Whoso finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of the LORD. Having a good spouse, having good children, good job, good success, good rides, good health, sound mind, good wealth, good testimonies, good opportunities and other good things are good, but we must use them to glorify GOD.

              

However, James 1 vs. 17 (NIV): Every good thing and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. Every good things and perfect things comes from above and from THE FATHER OF LIGHT (GOD). He doesn’t change, there is no variableness. GOD is constant! GOD is stable! GOD is immutable! Oh Wonderful GOD! As children of GOD, we shouldn’t lack good thing, things that matter in life shouldn’t be deficient in our lives. Good things are meant for GOD’s children, those called according to His purpose. It is essential we ask THE FATHER OF LIGHT (GOD) when we lack any good thing. Jabez knew every good thing comes from GOD, he knew only GOD can change his sorrowful state to a joyous one, he called on GOD saying: “Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me”.  Matthew 7 vs. 7-8: Ask and it shall be given you, seek and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone that ask receive; and he that seek finds, and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Vs. 11: If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father; which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him? GOD expects us to ask, He expect us to open our mouth so He will fill it with good things. Psalm 81 vs. 10: I am the LORD your GOD, which brought you out of the land of Egypt; open your mouth wide, and I will fill it. 
                  This previous week, I have been asking GOD to fill my life with good life, sound mind, good health, good job, good rides, good houses, good children, good scholarships, good spouse, good blessings, good success, good breakthrough, good testimonies and all good things that matter in life to glorify Him only and I believe He has answered! Start this week by asking GOD to fill your lives with good things that matter to glorify HIM, don’t forget every good and perfect gift comes from HIM. Kindly, share with others. It is well with us!!!!

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...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...

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...
