LIVING GOD’S WAY,STRENGTHENS US.

When the man of GOD lives by every word of GOD, it strengthens his entire life and weakens the enemy plots against him.You can’t be glitchy. As ‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭2:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ warns us. ” lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.”

‭‭” Therefore, submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. [8] Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” (James 4:7-8 NKJV).

‭‭ “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” (Acts 16:31 NKJV).Believe / belief must always be constant without interruption

”But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”(Matthew 19:26 NKJV)

”Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”(
Mark 9:23 NKJV)

”Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”(John 6:28-29 NKJV)

LISTEN

When a man gets in agreement with GOD, nothing can break that agreement.

The Word of GOD is law
The Word of GOD is the final authority
No man can obey and live the word of GOd without first having love (take it 5 leves deep) for GOD.

The Bible is written in the condense version and He (GOD) gave you all the information in the Bible to figure out what is in there.
You can figure out what is there by his grace

God is a GOD of order and sequence

For man to say that the Bible has mistakes he has disgrace GOD, GOD can watch over his word to performed.

When it comes to the things of GOD man cannot be lazy or procrastinate

Believe / belief it must be constant, cannot have interruption, the moment you break it you will mess up the entire operation

Peter walking on water is the example ”So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”“
Matthew 14:29-33 NKJV

”Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”“
Luke 18:6-8 NKJV

It takes faith to get salvation and it takes faith to keep your salvation.

We have to have all out faith for everything.

Why my faith?

1 John 5:4-5 ”For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?“
I John 5:4-5 NKJV

My faith is world overcoming faith

Jesus said, “Peter, I pray for you that your faith doesn’t fail.”

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

PRAYER

PRAYERS GO WHERE YOU CAN NOT GO,DO WHAT YOU CAN’T DO, BECAUSE YOU GIVE GOD ACCESS TO DIVINELY INTERVENE ON YOUR BEHALF.

PRAYER is a dialogue that goes two ways,you talk to God,then you listen. In John 10:27 Jesus said,”My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me”. Then in John 10:5 He said,”And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers”. As disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ we are to know His Voice and His vocabulary (His Word).We must intentionally listen to hear the voice of God.Consistent prayer, study and meditation in God’s Word helps us to hear his voice.

Remember prayer is not to just tell God what you want in Jesus Name and run. After we have prayed. We need to wait and listen for God’s Voice. Prayer is also dialogue between God and us.Exercise this discipline consistently to hear God’s Voice and it will change your entire life for the better. Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

All the benefits of prayer empowers our lives. Prayer is not a monologue (just us talking to God). Prayer is a dialogue. We speak to God and God speaks to us.
+++Consider putting thanksgiving and praises before your petitions in prayer.
+++In prayer it is more important for us to hear God, than for God to hear us.
+++In prayer the will of God is more important than our personal desires, Luke 11:1-4.
+++In prayer we experienced the presence of God and we develop intimacy with Him.
+++In prayer our hearts and minds are in sync with the Heart and Mind of God.
+++When we leave prayer we are Informed, instructed and corrected.
Our hearts and minds are touched with enlightenment, inspiration, encouragement and strength.
Luke 18:1 …men ought always to pray, and not to faint…
Continue instant in prayer.
Ephesians 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit…

‭‭James‬ ‭5:15‭-‬16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ tells us this :
[15] And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. [16] Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.


+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen! Enjoy the rest of the day.

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

LOVE

LOVE can’t be bought nor sold. Flowers, diamonds, nor gold is not a substitute for love,nor proof of love. Verbal ,physical, nor any type of abuse is not love . Don’t get it twisted.

HERE ARE DEMONSTRATIONS OF LOVE ,GOD’S WAY.

‭‭” For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”(John 3:16 NKJV).
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”(Mark 12:30-31 NKJV)

‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭13:1‭-‬13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ clearly tells us what love looks like,and feels like:
[1] Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

[4] Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; [5] does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; [6] does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; [7] bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. [8] Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

[9] For we know in part and we prophesy in part. [10] But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. [11] When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. [12] For now, we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. [13] And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Then ‭‭I John‬ ‭4:16‭-‬21‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ went further to say :
[16] And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God and God in him. [17] Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. [18] 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. [19] We love Him because He first loved us. [20] If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? [21] And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

‭‭I John‬ ‭2:15‭-‬16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[15] Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

LIVING BY THE SPIRIT

‭‭” 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.Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”(Romans 8:9-17 NKJV).

‭‭John‬ ‭14:16‭-‬17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[16] And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— [17] the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
[26] But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. [27] Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭2:9‭-‬16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[9] But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” [10] But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. [11] For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. [13] These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. [14] But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. [15] But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. [16] For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

‭‭” I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and 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 to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.”(Galatians 5:16-26 NKJV).

‭‭”But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, Anyd 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 1:17-25 NKJV]

‭‭

WISDOM

You’re not smarter nor wiser than God. So desire GODLY WISDOM.

‭‭”Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, Let not the mighty man glory in his might, Nor let the rich man glory in his riches; But let him who glories glory in this, That he understands and knows Me, That I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the Lord.”( Jeremiah 9:23-24 NKJV).

‭‭” Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore, get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.”( Proverbs 4:7 NKJV).

‭‭”Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding, But what is in the heart of fools is made known.” (Proverbs 14:33 NKJV).

‭‭”Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1:25-31 NKJV).

It’s good that you have achieved the highest level of academics , but your Ph.D., Masters, and all your degrees don’t and can’t make you smarter than God. You think you know it all .Like He said to Job ,He is saying to you :

‭‭Job‬ ‭38:4‭-‬13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[4] “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding. [5] Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? [6] To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, [7] When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy? [8] “Or who shut in the sea with doors, When it burst forth and issued from the womb; [9] When I made the clouds its garment, And thick darkness its swaddling band; [10] When I fixed My limit for it, And set bars and doors; [11] When I said, ‘This far you may come, but no farther, And here your proud waves must stop!’ [12] “Have you commanded the morning since your days began, And caused the dawn to know its place, [13] That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, And the wicked be shaken out of it?

However,I hope you know that,the world can’t teach you spiritual things ,that’s in the Bible. Jesus said in ‭‭John‬ ‭14:16‭-‬17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬:
[16] And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— [17] the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
[26] But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭2:9‭-‬16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ puts it this way:
[9] But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” [10] But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. [11] For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. [13] These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. [14] But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. [15] But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. [16] For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.



As James‬ ‭1:5‭-‬8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ says:
[5] If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. [6] But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. [7] For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; [8] he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.


+Remember Christ Jesus has been made Wisdom unto us in (1 Corinthians 1:30).
+The Wisdom of God is needed in every situation, especially during hard times.
+When you manage your hard times with Godly Wisdom, your hard times will become good times.
+But when you fail to manage you good times with Godly Wisdom, your good times will eventually start becoming bad times.
+Do all with GODLY WISDOM.

‭‭I Peter‬ ‭4:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[11] If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭2:14‭-‬16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[14] The wise man’s eyes are in his head, But the fool walks in darkness. Yet I myself perceived That the same event happens to them all. [15] So I said in my heart, “As it happens to the fool, It also happens to me, And why was I then more wise?” Then I said in my heart, “This also is vanity.” [16] For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever, Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. And how does a wise man die? As the fool!


•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

MEDITATION

‭‭” This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”(Joshua 1:8-9 NKJV)

Meditation is the basis for understanding
The 3 things you get when you meditate the word of GOD
1. You get Revelation
2. You get visions
3. You get impartation (the gift becomes active).

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭19:14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[14] Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.

When I meditate I’m extracting from the thing that I’m meditating on
When a man meditates, he is thinking about it, speaking about it, looking into it, looking over it, examining, slowly attentively repeatedly, and in the process he is extracting from it.

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:6‭-‬9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ says this :
[6] Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; [7] and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. [8] 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. [9] The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you. Stop meditating on your bills, job,spouse,money, and the things of this world. Change your focus and be at peace.

When I meditate on His word, GOD starts to communicate with me through the Holy Spirit. In my meditation, I will get visions (God gives you something to see), revelation (you get more spiritual understanding), and impartation (activation of spiritual gifts and deeper operation).

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭1:1‭-‬2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[1] Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; [2] But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night.

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

ALL ABOUT LOVE

‭‭” Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins.” (Proverbs 10:12 NKJV).

‭‭” For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.”(John 3:16 AMPC).

‭‭” IF I [can] speak in the tongues of men and [even] of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God’s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), and understand all the secret truths and mysteries and possess all knowledge, and if I have [sufficient] faith so that I can remove mountains, but have not love (God’s love in me) I am nothing (a useless nobody). Even if I dole out all that I have [to the poor in providing] food, and if I surrender my body to be burned or in order that I may glory, but have not love (God’s love in me), I gain nothing.

Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].

Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away [it will lose its value and be superseded by truth]. For our knowledge is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect), and our prophecy (our teaching) is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect). But when the complete and perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will vanish away (become antiquated, void, and superseded).

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; now that I have become a man, I am done with childish ways and have put them aside. For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection [of reality as in a riddle or enigma], but then [when perfection comes] we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood [by God]. And so faith, hope, love abide [faith–conviction and belief respecting man’s relation to God and divine things; hope–joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love–true affection for God and man, growing out of God’s love for and in us], these three; but the greatest of these is love.”(1 Corinthians 13: 1- 13 AMPC).

Then ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ tells us:
“Above all things have intense and unfailing love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins” [forgives and disregards the offenses of others]. [Prov. 10:12.]

‭‭”Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 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. We love Him because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.”(1 John 4:17-21 NKJV).

‭‭” Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]– To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).[Jude 1:24-25 AMPC].

BELIEVE OVER DOUBT

The Power of BELIEF in God
John 4:48
Then said Jesus unto him, Except all of you see signs and wonders, all of you will not BELIEVE.
+Believing before we see and received is a Powerful Spiritual Principle.
+This is a principle of Faith that is needed to be exercised in order to receive from the Lord.
John 20:29
Jesus says unto him, Thomas, because you have seen me, you have BELIEVED: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have BELIEVED.
+Let us not wait to see changes before we believe. This is counterproductive to our faith and a hindrance to receive from God.
Psalm 27:13
I would have fainted, unless I had BELIEVED TO SEE the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
+Notice in this scripture we do not SEE TO BELIEVE, WE BELIEVE FIRST AND THEN WE WILL SEE THE THINGS OF GOD. AMEN!
+Remember we walk by faith not by sight (2 Cor. 5:7).
•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!

“God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful.”
1 Thessalonians 5:24

My 🙏🏽 Prayer…
Father,
God, we believe You make things happen in our lives. You are faithful and transforming us into people who resemble Christ Jesus! Only Your miraculous hand on our lives could produce the supernatural change we experience when we seek You with all of our hearts, Lord. We are thankful for this day, which You have awakened us to live fully in order to bring glory to You.

Father, today we bring to You the impossible prayers we have been praying to You. We lay the burden of them down at Your feet, the worry we won’t see the answer we want in the time we want on this earth we lift up to You. You are in control, God, even when it feels like everything is out of control. When people are taken from us too soon, and sickness and tragic accidents seem to win, we are shaken, Father. In those moments when we feel our prayers have failed us, remind us of Your sovereignty, God. Remind us of Your goodness, and set a peace in our hearts that allows us to cope, embrace comfort, and submit to Your compassionate encouragement and faithful direction on our lives, Lord.

This is a prayer to make it happen, God. We will continue to pray for miraculous healing, even though we can’t see when it will come. Today, we choose to believe Your timing over our agenda, knowing the years of our lives are but a fast lap around the track in comparison to Your Eternal existence, God. Make peace happen in our lives today, God. We pray for miraculous reconciliation where there has been discord and division, conflict and misunderstanding. We trust Your movement in our hearts and the hearts of those on the other side of the line, God. Do what only You can do in the minds and hearts of humanity.

Father, this is a prayer to make it happen. We pray for Your will to come to fruition in our lives. Let today be a step in Your direction, and let every day we live on this earth bring glory to You, God. Show us the way You have marked out for us. Give us the courage we need and the confidence required to walk in Truth for the rest of our lives, God. Help us to notice and embrace the people You have placed around us. To apologize when warranted and forgive without being asked. Father, let our lives be a channel of Your love. This is a prayer to make it happen …by Your hand, in Your time, according to Your will.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen.

BE STEADFAST

The Blessing of Being Steadfast in the Lord. To be steadfast is to be firmly dedicated ,loyal, and faithful to God above all.
As 1 Corinthians 15:58 tells us:
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be STEADFAST, UNMOVABLE, always abounding in the work of the Lord, since you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord
Steadfast: uncompromising, firmly fixed, consistent, and persistent in love, truth, holiness, righteousness, and faith.
+Being STEADFAST prevents procrastination.
Procrastination: to be slow or to be late in doing the things that should be done; to put things off intentionally and habitually.
+Procrastinating is a thief of time, productivity, prosperity, and good success.

‭‭King David showed his steadfastness by saying: ” I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make its boast in the Lord; The humble shall hear of it and be glad. Oh, magnify the Lord with me, And let us exalt His name together. I sought the Lord, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears.”(Psalms 34:1-4 NKJV).

” O God, You are my God; Early will I seek You; My soul thirsts for You; My flesh longs for You In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water. So I have looked for You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise You. Thus, I will bless You while I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.”(Psalms 63:1-4 NKJV).

‭‭” Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The Lord executes righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.”(Psalms 103 : 1-6 NKJV).

” Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), of God.
Making the very most of your time [making every opportunity profitable], because the days are evil.”(Ephesians 5: 15-16 AMP)

‭‭” Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 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. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.”(1 Peter 5: 8-11 NKJV).

‭‭”Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God can not be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.”(James 1: 12-15 NKJV)


Proverb 6:10-11
10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 So shall your poverty come upon you like a vagabond, and your want like an armed man.
+Do not go to sleep when it’s time to be awake.
+Do not rest when it’s time to be work.
Proverb 14:8
The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his ways…
Proverb 22:29
See you a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean (unclear, uncertain, unknown and doubtful) men.
+Continue to be prudent, diligent, and steadfast, and know that your short term sacrifices has long term growth, dividends and benefits.
Hallelujah!
•And 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!

‭‭Jude‬ ‭1:24‭-‬25‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[24] 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, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.

Who do you have a relationship with? God or pastor, Pope or the Bishop ? Having a personal relationship with God is key to your well-being. When you are in a relationship with someone, you want to know everything about them. Two can’t walk unless they agree (Amos 3:3). Are you in agreement with God?

It is not about being religious – rules and can’t do. It is about a relationship with our Lord and savior. Do not allow people to impose their cultural rituals on you. Read your Bible daily, go to a sound biblical foundational church, and build on your relationship with our Heavenly Father. If you are going to enjoy your relationship with God, you must start spending time with Him.

‭‭ “If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.”(John 14:15-17 NKJV).

‭‭” EVERYONE WHO believes (adheres to, trusts, and relies on the fact) that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah) is a born-again child of God; and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of Him (His offspring). By this we come to know (recognize and understand) that we love the children of God: when we love God and obey His commands (orders, charges)–[when we keep His ordinances and are mindful of His precepts and His teaching]. For the [true] love of God is this: that we do His commands [keep His ordinances and are mindful of His precepts and teaching]. And these orders of His are not irksome (burdensome, oppressive, or grievous). For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith. Who is it that is victorious over [that conquers] the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on that fact]? (1 John 5:1-5 AMPC)

Five (5) things that let me know that I’m in a stable relationship with GOD.

  • Always in every thing and in every situation I will always love GOD with all my heart.
  • Always trust GOD with all my heart (I have no room for the five enemies of faith)
  • Always obey GOD with all my heart, soul, mind and strength (not partial obedience, and not with attitude, obedience is not a bufet we must have total and complete obedience) you can read Roman’s 12:1
  • (I’m) Living the life of GOD (living in the spirit, supernaturally, miraculously, the fruit of the spirit, and the gift of the spirit. The is normal to my new life)
  • You’ll be living it in the authority and power of all mighty GOD (you live this relationship for GOD’s glory, that is for your victory and the detriment of the devil)
  • ‭‭But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. 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 3:7-14 NKJV).
  • ‭‭ 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]
