THE SECRET PLACE

One thing have I desired of the Lord , that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord , and to enquire in his temple.  For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.[ Psalms 27:4-5 ]

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord , He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the Lord , which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.{Psalms 91:1-16}

FREEDOM

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
[Galatians 5:1, 13 ]

Jesus gives you Freedom,so why would you want to go back in the bondage of sin,which brings death.
John 8:36 says,
If the Son therefore shall make you free, all of you shall be free indeed.
Then John 8:32 says
And all of you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
•To know Jesus is to know Truth Personified.
•To know Truth Personified is to be set free.
•Jesus is the Person of Truth, and the Word of God is the Word of Truth.
•Jesus sets you free and the Word of God keeps you Free when you live by it.
•Freedom in Christ sets you up for complete deliverance in your spirit, soul, mind and body.
•Freedom in Christ makes you Bold, Courageous, Strong, Secure, and Wise, etc.
Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty (freedom) wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the  yoke of bondage.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

YOU CAN’T WALK WITH GOD,and do the deeds of the devil

First you must understand that:
“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon” [Matthew 6:24].

GOD SAYS:
“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.  For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.  But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.  Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.  See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,  Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.  And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;  Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;  Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;  Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God”.{Ephesians 5:11-21}

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
[2 Corinthians 6:14-18]

GOD’S ASSURANCE
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord ; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.  For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
(Psalms 1:1-6)

PRINCIPLES of WISDOM

Proverbs 4:7 says,
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all of your getting get understanding”.
+Worry is a substitute for faith and prayer. Therefore trust in the Lord with all your heart and walk by faith, not by sight.
+What we appreciate increases in value, and what we depreciate decreases in value. Where love is given value is also given.
+ If we don’t have anything good to say, don’t say anything at all. Proverb 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him..

+If we are not willing to change our behaviors when it’s necessary, then we are not ready for growth and maturation in spirit and in truth.
Hebrews 5:12 For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again…
+Problems will expose your fruit and character, and let the people around you know who you really are.
Matthew 12:33
Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit.
Luke 6:45
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

JESUS PAID IT ALL

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.(Isaiah 53:3-12).

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
[Hebrews 4:14-16]

But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners? And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
{Luke 5:30-32 }

LET GOD SPEAK

Let God’s Answer be your Answer.
Isaiah 55:8-9
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD.For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts, than your thoughts.
Proverb 3:6
In all of your ways acknowledge Him (God), and He shall direct your paths.

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 4:10-11
•One idea from God is greater than all ideas from men.
•Always go with God’s wisdom in every situation. God is never wrong and He is always right.
•Only God’s wisdom can guarantee the results you are looking for and more.
•God doesn’t only answer your questions. He also solves and resolves all your problems.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

BE NICE

It is nice to be important but its more important to be nice.
NICE: pleasing and delightful.
Philippians 2:3
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better  than themselves.
-Remember the Lord is your Rewarder. You will reap good when you do good to others.
Galatians 6:10
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
Philippians 2:13
For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

MAKING GODLY CHOICES

The Importance of Making Good and Godly Decisions.
•The good and Godly decisions we make on a daily basis, has a cumulative effect that pays good dividends for our future.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord , and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.(Proverbs 3:5-8 ).

However,Proverb 24:6 tells us that, “..in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
And Proverbs 19:20-21 says,
Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter end.
…the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
•Wisdom and Counsel are Keys to make good and Godly decisions.
•For many of us a decision is not made in a moment of time, it is rooted in our character and experiences.
•Let all our decisions be with Wisdom and Love and for the glory of God.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

FORGET THE PAST, & move on

It’s amazing how some people can’t even forgive themselves, for the mistakes they make n the past. They want to relive the hurt,and pain over and over,failing to realize that it’s preventing them from moving forward into a brighter future.

HOW DO YOU MOVE ON:
It’s simple,forgive and forget, listen ,”Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus”.
{Philippians 3:12-14 }.
REMEMBER
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
{Hebrews 4:15-16}.
LISTEN:
To forget the past and move on,you must take control of your thoughts,and this is how it’s done.
” Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
[2 Corinthians 10:5-6 ]
