WORK ON THE WORD 3!

WORK ON THE WORD 3!
R. Kelso Carter wrote these hymn lyrics;
Standing on the promises that cannot fail
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living word of GOD I shall prevail
Standing on the promises of GOD
Standing on the promises of CHRIST the LORD
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord
Overcoming daily with the spirit’s sword
Standing on the promises of GOD.     
GOD’s promises are in his words. The bible says He honors his words more than his name. Isaiah 55 vs. 11: So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth; it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. A man’s promises fail, but GOD’s promises never fail. Isaiah 40 vs. 8: The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our GOD shall stand forever. We are to stand on GOD’s promises which can be found in his word. When in difficulty or facing any challenges GOD’s promises are there in his word to make us overcome; we are to stand on them. When in challenges standing on words like For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. The LORD is my light and my salvation, who shall I fear. But you O LORD, are a shield for me, my glory, and the lifter up of my head. There is no wisdom nor counsel, nor understanding against the LORD. I know that you can do everything and that no thought can be withheld from you. I shall decree a thing, and it shall be established to me; and the light shall shine upon my ways. When men are cast down, then I shall say; There is lifting up, and He shall save the humble person. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why are you disquieted in me? hope you in GOD; for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. These are just few promises from GOD’s word, work on the word by standing on them in faith when faced by challenges and difficulties. Only by his word can we prevail. Only by standing on his word in faith can we overcome.
                      2 Corinthians 1 vs. 20: For all the promises of GOD in Him are Yea, and in Him Amen, to the glory of GOD by us. GOD is the FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED, His promises are faithful and fails not. His promises in JESUS were fulfilled. Paul said to quench the fiery darts of the wicked and overcome storms, trials, difficulties, problems; we must take the shield of faith, take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of GOD. Ephesians 6 vs. 16-17: Above all, taking the shield of faith, where with you shall be able to quench all fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of GOD. Standing on GOD’s promises is having faith in his word. Faith without work is dead and it is impossible to please GOD without faith. Work on the word by standing in faith in the word. Kindly, share with others. 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...
