COMING FORTH AS GOLD!

COMING FORTH AS GOLD!
Gold is precious and valuable. A gold glitters and sparkles. It is a jewel, but before it becomes a finished pure gold, it has undergone various processes. Gold is purified by fire. It is tried and tested just to be purified. Proverbs 17 vs. 3 (NIV): The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but the LORD test the heart. 1 Peter 1 vs. 7:  That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. Our faith will surely be tested just as fire tests gold and purifies it. Without faith it is impossible to please GOD. Faith without works is dead. Our faith is far precious to GOD than mere gold. We must remain strong after being tried in the test tube of fiery trials. There are test tube of fiery trials; Job faced such, but he came out as pure as gold. Job was tried, tested but he stood firm on his faith in GOD. To come forth as gold you must stand firm in faith! Everyone will tested and tried in trials. Your faith will determine if you will come forth as gold. Gold is tested and tried in fire, but it comes forth as Gold. Staying in the fire is not a comfortable thing, but it purifies and refines the Gold. Will you come forth as gold when tried and tested in trials?
             Many a time, trials, challenges are not comfortable; but your attitude in trials and challenges determines if you will come out as gold. Job 23 vs. 10-12: But he knows the way that I take, when he has tried me; I shall come forth as gold. My foot has held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined. Neither have I gone back from the commandments of his lips. I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. To come forth as gold, when tried and tested in trials you must be sure you can boldly say “He (GOD) knows every details of what is happening to me; and when he has examined me, he will pronounce me, completely innocent as pure as solid gold”. To come forth as gold when tried and tested in trials you must stay in GOD’s path, follow his steps and not turn aside. That is being focused on GOD. To come forth as gold when tried and tested in trials you must esteem GOD’s word than food. This implies you must chew over GOD’s word, profess GOD’s word, proclaim his words; swallow his words, ponder on his words, meditate his words, ruminate on his words. Job did these and he came forth as Gold; we are no exception for we must come forth as Gold when tried and tested in trials. Kindly, share with others. My second book “The Anomaly of Life “will be out soon, readers ensure you get a copy when it’s out. 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...

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...
