FAITH TESTING

FAITH TESTING!
I greet all readers on this platform worldwide in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. May the LORD increase the knowledge of his word in our lives. Faith as we know is the substance of things hope for, evidence of things not seen. Hebrew 11 vs. 1: Now faith is the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen. Show me a man of faith and I will tell you he is a GOD pleaser. Hebrews 11 vs. 6: But without faith, it is impossible to please Him; for he that comes to GOD must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. GOD rewards those that sincerely look to him. Anyone who depends on GOD believes that He truly is GOD. We are to always believe, trust and depend on GOD in trials and any circumstance. Trials test faith! Difficulties test faith!

Abraham’s faith was tested by GOD when he was told to offer up Isaac and he did because he trusted in GOD and his promises. GOD never breaks his promises. The bible said in Hebrews 11 vs. 17-19: By faith Abraham, when GOD tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son. Even though GOD had said to him; it is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned. Abraham reasoned that GOD could even raise the deed, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death. Trials and challenges many a times are only to test our faith, to see whether or not it is strong and pure. Many faiths in GOD is not strong, it is weak and feeble. GOD values a man of faith. A man of faith is precious in GOD’s sight. Abraham is the father of faith. He was precious in GOD’s sight. GOD for once never left him nor forsake his seeds. Are you a man of faith? 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...

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...
