LONG-SUFFERING

LONG-
SUFFERING
This word is a powerful word. Not everyone can exercise patience in some circumstances. Many get angry easily with just mere words, but a person that exhibit longsuffering will endure and be patience even while in pain. Longsuffering is having endured mental or physical discomfort for a protracted period of time patiently or without. A man that exhibit longsuffering is a man of the Spirit. Longsuffering is one of the fruit of the Spirit. Galatians 5 vs. 22: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith. GOD is a Spirit, He told Moses in Exodus 34 vs. 6: And the LORD passed by before him and proclaimed; The LORD, The LORD GOD, MERCIFUL AND GRACIOUS, LONGSUFFERING AND ABUNDANT IN GOODNESS AND TRUTH. Vs. 7: Keeping mercy for thousand, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the Fathers upon the children and upon children’s children, to the third and to the fourth generation. GOD is longsuffering. He is a Merciful and Gracious GOD. He is Abundant in Goodness and Truth. He long suffers because He is Merciful and Gracious.

            

It hurts GOD when his creations commit sins or go against his will; but because of his love, he still patiently waits for us to repent. Romans 5 vs. 8: But GOD commended his love towards us, in that while we were yet sinners, CHRIST died for us. GOD’s foolishness is wiser than the wisdom of men. Many take this for granted and continue in sins. Remember, Romans 6 vs. 1: What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sins, that grace may abound? Vs. 2: GOD forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? As GOD’s creation we are to follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man will see GOD. Hebrews 12 vs. 14: Follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the LORD. As GOD’s creation we are to exhibit longsuffering. There are circumstances that will show up, we must endure and wait patiently on GOD. Many find it difficult enduring or waiting on GOD when in difficult situations, remember GOD is longsuffering. Many find it difficult to forgive others that offend them, remember GOD is longsuffering. Many get angry easily, remember GOD is longsuffering. Silence is golden, patience is not foolishness. It is well with us….

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
