DO YOU WANT A LONG, GOOD LIFE 3?

                         DO YOU WANT A LONG, GOOD LIFE 3?
Psalm 34 vs. 14: Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace and pursue it. Turning from all known sin is a key to life. The bible refers the soul that sinneth as the wicked. Ezekiel 18 vs. 4b : the soul that sinneth, it shall die. A soul that keeps sinning cannot live long and have good life. It is better to flee from all appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5 vs. 22: Abstain from all appearance of evil and pursue it. This is for one’s benefit and generations to come. There is a saying that the evil that men do live after them. Why not pity your generations yet unborn, hold fast unto what is good, abstain from all sort of evil that might come back to haunt you. Show me a man that abstains from all appearance of evil and I will tell you he will have a long, good life. Show me a man that abstains not from all appearance of evil and I will tell you GOD’s face will be against such and will cut off such from the earth. Psalm 34 vs. 16: The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. A man that abstains from all appearance of evil will have long, good life because GOD’s eyes will always be upon him, because GOD’s ears will always be open to his cry; because GOD will always deliver him out of all troubles; because though he his afflicted, GOD will deliver him out of them all and keep his bones that not one will be broken. Psalm 34 vs. 15: The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous and His ears are open to their cry. Psalm 34 vs. 19-20: Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the LORD delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones not one of them is broken.

              However, 1 Thessalonians 5 vs. 21: Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Being a righteous is a good thing. Walking in the Spirit is a good thing. Abstaining from all appearance of evil is a good thing. Loving your neighbor as yourself is a good thing. Reading and meditating GOD’s words and doing accordingly to what is written therein is a good thing. Following peace with all men is a good thing. Being identified as the sons and daughter of GOD is a good thing. Matthew 5 vs. 9: Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the children of GOD. Peace is one of the fruit of the spirit. A spirit filled being will be a peacemaker and not a troublemaker. Hebrews 12 vs. 14: Follow peace with all men, and holiness without which no man shall see the LORD. Do you want a long, good life? Then abstain from all appearances of evil, hold fast unto what is good and do it, live in peace with all men. Has this post blessed you? Kindly share with others, there is love in sharing. It is well with us!!!!

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
