LONGSUFFERING 4

LONGSUFFERING 4
I start with 1 Corinthians 13 vs. 4: Charity suffers long, and is kind; charity envies not, charity vaunts not itself, is not puffed up. Vs. 5: Does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil. Then Vs. 7: Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. GOD truly is love. No wonder he sent CHRIST. He that get easily provoke has no patient, such cannot bear all things, such cannot endure all things. JESUS did bear all our debts of sin and he endured the suffering on the cross for us to be saved. Only a person that truly loves you will bear all things and endure all things. It’s just like a mother that bears all things during pregnancy and after pregnancy. The woman will go through a lot while in the delivery room. I once visited a neighbor of mine that put to birth few years back, and a woman was rushed into the clinic. Her reactions showed women go through life and death while delivery. Most endure all these just because they love their husbands and the child. They endure not sleeping until the baby sleeps, they bear a lot. JESUS did the same for us.


             

However, it is always good to exercise patient in all our doings. Impatience is the opposite of patience. It doesn’t tolerate. It is restlessness. Impatience has caused a lot of people disaster, what being patience would have resolved and calm. Moses’s impatience costed him taking the Israelites to the promise land. He couldn’t control his anger. Anger is the work of the flesh. It is a small madness and shouldn’t be exhibited by a child of GOD. A crucified body won’t get angry. Numbers 20 vs. 7-8: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying; Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock; so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink. Vs. 10 -12: And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, hear now, ye rebels, must we fetch you water out of this rock? And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice; and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank and their beast also. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children if Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land I have given them. Start this week by exercising patience and self -control in all your doings. Kindly share with others…….It is well with us

ONCE A FAITHFUL WIFE, AND NOW A PROSTITUTE

ONCE A FAITHFUL WIFE, AND NOW A PROSTITUTE! Compliments of the season from this side of the world to you all!!! Knowledge of the Truth is back and better this year. And I pray this year shall be a favorable one for us all. The word Faithful means reliable, worthy of trust, loyal and adhering firmly to a rule. It means consistency. It means fidelity. As a wife, it is expected you are reliable, worthy of trust, loyal and adhere to your husband’s rule and command. Ephesians 5 vs. 22: Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the LORD. The husband is in charge of his wife in the same way CHRIST is in charge of his body the Church. A submissive wife will be faithful without any conditions. She makes fidelity her watchword. A submissive wife obeys all her husband rule and command. A submissive wife is conscious of her wrongs. A submissive wife yields to authority (her husband’s). A submissive wife will always stand by her husband in thick and thin. A submissive wif

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

DREAMS ARE NOT DELUSIONS

DREAMS ARE NOT DELUSIONS This is a very fascinating topic, dreams are not delusions. Many do think dreams are just fictions, some see as a normal way of life. Many do not take their dream serious which shouldn’t be, some see dreams as delusions, some don’t even dream, why some forget what they dreamt about. Dream is a medium in which GOD communicates with us, he communicates to us through vision, trance and also consciences, but we are discussing about dream. Although, many a time what you are thinking about before you sleep, you might see it again; but majorly it does not continue like that. The bible said in Job 33 vs 15: In dreams, in vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they lie on their beds; he opens their ears in time like that and gives them wisdom and instruction. That is just a picture of dream, everyone has a dream land; but some’s has been tampered with by the devil. A dream land is an avenue for dreams; GOD gives instructions to us in the dream, ju
