As a child of God, you can’t allow the dictates of the flesh to lead you in the Spirit. “For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

So then, those who are in the flesh can not please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now, if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” (Romans 8:5‭-‬11 NKJV).

Matthew 26:41 …the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
The spirit is willing: You are predisposed (always ready) in your spirit by the Holy Spirit to obey God. You are strong in your spirit by the Holy Spirit.

The flesh is weak: The weakness of the flesh is it’s susceptibility to sin and it’s inability to obey God.
Remember what Romans 8:8-9 says,” So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But all of you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.”

However,Galatians 5:16-17 says,
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, (let the Spirit make the decision) and all of you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that all of you cannot do the things that all of you would.
But thanks be to God you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you, Phil 4:13. “AND THEY THAT ARE CHRIST’S HAVE CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH THE AFFECTIONS AND LUSTS. IF WE LIVE IN THE SPIRIT,LET US ALSO WALK IN THE SPIRIT”{Galatians 5:24~25}.

“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” (John 4:23‭-‬24 NKJV).

Therefore, because we are born of the Spirit of God, we are filled with the Spirit of God, we must fellowship in the Spirit of God, be led by the Spirit of God, and walk daily in the Spirit of God.
Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

JESUS IS THE PRINCE OF PEACE, and more. (Isaiah 9:6).
+++Do not let the bad news of the world steal your peace,joy, and happiness. God tells us to

“Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the PEACE OF GOD, WHICH SURPASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING, WILL GUARD YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” (Philippians 4:4‭-‬8 NKJV).

“Mark the blameless man, and observe the upright; FOR THE FUTURE OF THAT MAN IS PEACE. But the transgressors shall be destroyed together; The future of the wicked shall be cut off. But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their strength in the time of trouble. And the Lord shall help them and deliver them; He shall deliver them from the wicked, And save them, Because they trust in Him.”
(Psalms 37:37‭-‬40 NKJV).

In John 16:27 before Jesus leaves the earth,He said : PEACE I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Then John 16:33 He said : These things I have spoken unto you, that IN ME YOU MIGHT HAVE PEACE. In the world, you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
+++The PEACE of God in you has already overcome all the tribulations of the world. Just relax and keep your mind on Jesus.

Isaiah 26:3-4 also reminds us that :
God will keep you in perfect PEACE when your mind is stayed on Him: because you trust in God.
Trust all of you in the LORD forever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:

“Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.” (II Corinthians 13:11 NKJV).
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

And to man He said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, And to depart from evil is understanding.’ ” ( Job 28:28 NKJV).

“Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, Than great treasure with trouble.”(Proverbs 15:16 NKJV).

“Blessed is every one who fears the Lord, Who walks in His ways.” (Psalms 128:1 NKJV).

Proverbs 9:10 reminds us that :
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom…
However, Proverbs 1:7 says, The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge…

“And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”
(Matthew 10:28 NKJV).

FEAR: Reverence; an attitude of deep respect filled with awe for the Lord.
+++People in the world have no fear or reverence for God. This means they have no wisdom, and their knowledge is corrupted.
+++You cannot make spiritual sense to them, and they definitely make no spiritual sense to you.
Psalms 14:1 tells us that,The fool has said in his heart that there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that does good.
+++Only the Holy Spirit can reveal Christ, spiritual knowledge, and wisdom to those in the world. When we preach the gospel of Christ to the world, the Holy Spirit used the word preached to enlighten their hearts and reveal the Person of Christ to them.
Matthew 10:16 reminds us to :
…be all of you, therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
Matthew 7:6 says :
…do not cast your pearls (of wisdom) before swine’s lest they trample them under their feet…

Luke 13:32 says :
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Romans 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. The Kingdom comes by the Holy Spirit, and the Kingdom of God is also where the rule and reign of God is.
Where ever you go the Kingdom of God goes with you. Angels go with you, and more importantly God goes with you. Continue to enjoy the righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. That’s the Kingdom of God and a taste of Heaven.

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” (Psalms 23:4 NKJV). +++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

“Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:29‭-‬32 KJV).

“Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (1 Corinthians 1:10 KJV).

“Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing. For “He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” (I Peter 3:8‭-‬12 NKJV).

+++Good communication is KEY to experience Victory and Success.
+++Let us all speak the same thing. There is agreement in language.
+++No division among us means we all stand in agreement and unity with the same things.
+++Perfectly joined together is compatibility. Living together consistently in harmony and conformity to Word of God.
+++The same mind is the Mind of Christ, and the same Judgement is the same decision.
Remember, communication is the basis of life. When communication breaks down, the spirit of confusion (the enemy) will enter.
Matthew 5:37 states,
But let your communication be, Yes, yea; No, no: for whatsoever is more than these comes of the evil one.

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

Christians will never grow if they refuse to do what God tells them to do.

“Study to shew thyself APPROVED UNTO GOD, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenæus and Philetus; who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. Nevertheless, the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” (2 Timothy 2:15‭-‬19 KJV).

Approved unto God, not the pastor, nor your brothers and sisters in Christ ,nor friends. “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” (2 Timothy 3:16‭-‬17 KJV).

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. As they were increased, so they sinned against me. Therefore, will I change their glory into shame.” (Hosea 4:6‭-‬7 KJV)

“For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. ” (Hebrews 5:12‭-‬14 NKJV).

The number one thing that promotes our growth, development, and maturation in the Lord is walking in the Love of the Lord.
+The MATURE Believer will always walk in the Love of God with Truth, Holiness, Righteousness, and Faith.
+The IMMATURE Believer many times walks on the works of the flesh and thinks they are walking in the Love of God.
+1 Corinthians 13:1-3 says if you have an extensive list of good things and have NOT love, we are NOTHING.
+It also says if we have done an extensive list of good things and have NOT Love it profits us nothing.
+In other words, without God’s love in us, we are demonstrated towards God and others we are nothing.
+Loving God and each other brings God’s Value and Acceptance to all that we do.
•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!

“The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1 NKJV). So God says to the righteous.

“Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land; But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword”; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”(Isaiah 1:18‭-‬20 NKJV).

“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. FOR I WILL FORGIVE THEIR INIQUITY, AND THEIR SIN I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE.” Thus says the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day, The ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, Who disturbs the sea, And its waves roar (The Lord of hosts is His name):
(AaaJeremiah 31:33‭-‬35 NKJV).

“Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, LET US HOLD FAST OUR CONFESSIONS. For we do not have a High Priest who can not sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. LET US, THEREFORE, COME BOLDLY TO THE THRONE OF GRACE , that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:14‭-‬16 NKJV).

DO YOU WANT MERCY? God sits on The Throne of Grace. He is gracious and merciful unto us. DID YOU KNOW THAT?
GRACE is God’s unmerited favor towards us. Grace gives us the goodness of God, which we did not deserve, and His MERCY spears us from the punishment we deserve. LISTEN,
As long as we did not blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, God will always forgive us of all our repented sins and iniquities. We may feel shame, regret, and remorse but never feel condemned.

“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” (Romans 8:1‭-‬8 NKJV)

“O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever. “(Psalms 107:1).

Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen! ENJOY YOUR DAY IN THE LORD.

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” [ Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV ]

God’s Amazing GRACE is His unmerited favor towards us.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:8‭-‬10 NKJV).

So remember, it’s by GRACE, we are saved…
+Grace is God imparting His righteousness, holiness, Holy Spirit, and favor in us, upon us through us by the redemptive of His Son Jesus Christ.
+Grace is the God-given ability in us to do all that pertains to life and Godliness.
+Grace are spiritual faculties given to us in the form of gifts, talents, and abilities by the Holy Spirit.

“Who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,..” (II Timothy 1:9 NKJV).

“And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing, I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” (II Corinthians 12:7‭-‬9 NKJV).

“But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. “(I Peter 5:10 NKJV)

But He gives more grace. Therefore, He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” (James 4:6 NKJV).
+We need God’s GRACE yesterday, today, and every day for the rest of our lives.
Thank God for His AMAZING GRACE.
•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!

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24-25 NKJV]

People like to say they are not perfect, as an excuse to sin. But God made us good and perfect, and He wants us to remain good and perfect. He said, “Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is PERFECT.” (Matthew 5:48 NKJV).

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and PERFECT will of God.” (Romans 12:2 NKJV).

“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a PERFECT man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.” (Ephesians 4:11‭-‬16 NKJV).

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly furnished unto all good works.”(2 Timothy 3:16‭-‬17 KJV).

“Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1:16‭-‬17 KJV).

“There is no fear in love; but PERFECT love casts out fear because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made PERFECT in love.” (I John 4:18 NKJV). THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU NOT TO STRIVE FOR PERFECTION,AND BE PERFECT.

“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.” (Jude 1:24‭-‬25 KJV)

GOD’S WORD PENETRATE,INFILTRATE, AND OPERATES ON YOUR HEART. The Power of God’s Word goes directly to the heart, that’s why King David said,”Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You. Blessed are You, O Lord! Teach me your statutes.” (Psalms 119:11‭-‬12 NKJV)

However, 1Thessalonians 2:13 says,
For this cause we also thank God without ceasing, because, when all of you received the Word of God which all of you heard of us, all of you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in TRUTH, the WORD of GOD, which EFFECTUALLY WORKS also in you who BELIEVE.
Effectual: capable of producing all intents and purposes.
(Heb 4:12 AMP) says this :
For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power, making it active, operative, energizing, and effective…
•The WORD of God in us is Alive, Active, Operative, Energizing, and Effective. It is capable of producing all the intents and purposes of God in us and through us.
•When we take man made medication, we have no issues expecting the intents and purposes that medication is supposed to produce.
•How much more than shall we expect the Word of God to produce in us the intents and purposes of God in our lives.
•Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 4:4. Man shall not live by bread alone but by every Word proceeds of the Mouth of God.
+++Let the Word of God be the standard for your life. Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling or falling into sin, and to present you unblemished [blameless and faultless] in the presence of His glory with triumphant joy and unspeakable delight, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, before all time and now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMP].

Galatians 2:20 says:
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me…
+++Think about this, Christ lives in you. How? Through the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 reminds us:
19 What? know all of you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which all of you have of God, and all of you are not your own?
20 For all of you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

+++The Holy Spirit is in you so Christ can live through you. Remember you were crucified (died) with Christ when He died on the cross. Your newness of life now is all about Christ. When you think it’s in His mind (you have the mind of Christ). When you speak, it’s His Words, which is in your heart. When you act, it’s In His strength and the Power of His Might

“Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill: The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains; but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. What, then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice. For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose, I can not tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless, to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.”(Philippians 1:15‭-‬24 NKJV).

Then Philippians 2:13 says :
For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
+++Remember you have laid down (sacrificed) your life in Christ. Now, the life you live is for Christ and His glory.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV
