Why would you choose to die than to live. Why choose sickness instead of healing. By Jesus stripes, you are healed,yet you choose to say you’re sick,instead of saying I am healed. Why choose doubt and fear instead of belief. Why choose to hate,instead of love. Why do you choose the devil instead of Jesus. Why choose to disobey rather than obey. WHY ?WHY ?WHY ? WHY?

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10 KJV).

The Abundant Life does not include sickness, disease, or lack. That’s s not God’s standards of living. What’s your choice?

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:..” (Deuteronomy 30:19 KJV).

“..according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: “(2 Peter 1:3‭-‬10 KJV).

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].

“And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak, knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you. For all things are for your sakes, that grace, having spread through the many, may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”(II Corinthians 4:13‭-‬18 NKJV).

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.” (Proverbs 18:21 NKJV).

“My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you. Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established. Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.” (Proverbs 4:20‭-‬27 NKJV).

“Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” (Matthew 12:34‭-‬37 NKJV).

“If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.” Then He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.” (Mark 4:23‭-‬24 NKJV).

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].

All Decisions are Important when it comes to your life.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: that thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: (Deuteronomy 30:19‭-‬20 KJV).

“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”(Joshua 24:15 KJV).

-Our lives are composed of your choices.
-A decision is not made in a moment of time it is already rooted in your character and experiences.
-Be wise in making decisions. All decisions can become habits, and all habits can become your character.
-Choose not what you want but what God has already chosen for you:
-Choose Jesus not satan.
-Choose life not death.
-Choose blessing not cursing.
-Choose health not sickness.
-Choose riches not poverty.
-Choose victory not defeat.
-Choose the Kingdom not the world.
-For an extended list of things to choose please consult with your Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation.

“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].

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

When you maintain your relationship with God,you will be promoted and elevated, beyond what you could ask,think or imagine.

“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).

“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God: “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country. “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. “The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. “The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. And the Lord will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them. So you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them. “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:
(Deuteronomy 28:1‭-‬15 NKJV).

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:25‭-‬33 NKJV).

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.” (Psalms 37:4‭-‬9 NKJV).

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” (3 John 1:2 KJV).

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].

The Importance of Living by FAITH is to enable you to walk and function in the supernatural.
+Four times God said in the Bible, “The JUST shall live by FAITH”

“Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH.”(Habakkuk 2:4 NKJV).

“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.”(Romans 1:17 NKJV).

“But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.”(Galatians 3:11 NKJV).

“Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise: “For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry. NOW THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.” But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.”(Hebrews 10:35‭-‬39 NKJV).

+The word JUST in scripture means justified ( just as it we have never sinned). It also means RIGHTEOUS.
+We are the Righteousness (the JUST) of God by FAITH of Christ Jesus. See Romans Ch-3 & Ch-10
Hebrews 11:6
Without FAITH is impossible to please God.
+It takes FAITH in the Lord Jesus Christ to live in LOVE, TRUTH, HOLINESS and RIGHTEOUSLY, and Why?
Romans 14:23 says:
…for whatsoever is not of FAITH is sin.
+To go deeper whatsoever is not LOVE, TRUTH, HOLINESS and RIGHTEOUSNESS is sin.

Galatians 2:16 says :Knowing that a man is not justified (or made righteous) by the works of the law, but by the FAITH of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified (made righteous) by the FAITH of Christ…

+We are Righteous, Justified, Sanctified and made Holy because we live by the FAITH of the Lord Jesus Christ, and FAITH in His REDEMPTIVE WORK from His Birth to His Resurrection, Ascension and Him coming back again.

+Through Faith, we live in the Resurrection Power, Healing Power, Deliverance Power, and the Protective Power of our Lord Jesus Christ for Long Life, Prosperity, and Good Success. “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].

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 FRUIT that Glorifies the Father is LOVE.
John 15:8 says this:
By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much FRUIT; so you will be My disciples.
+What is the FRUIT that glorifies the Father?
Galatians 5:22 clearly states :
But the FRUIT of the Spirit is LOVE…
+LOVE is the fruit that glorifies The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit.
+What does it mean to GLORIFY the Father with LOVE?
Glorify: to praise, honor, magnify, and represent in the Spirit of excellence.
+LOVE is the FRUIT of EXCELLENCE, or we can say Love is the EXCELLENT FRUIT.
+When walk in LOVE, we are walking before God in Perfection and Excellence, and this is for the Praise, Glory, and Honor of God.

“And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.” (I Peter 4:8 NKJV).

LET’S SIMPLIFY THIS PASSAGE.

“But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things, there is no law [that can bring a charge]. And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites and desires. If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.] Let us not become vainglorious and self-conceited, competitive and challenging and provoking and irritating to one another, envying and being jealous of one another.” (Galatians 5:22‭-‬26 AMPC).

“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].

•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!

Living the Christlike Life is living by every Word of God, like Jesus did. He acknowledges God the Father in everything. To live the Christ like life ,we must begin by:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil.” (Proverbs 3:5‭-‬7 NKJV).

“……present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 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 12:1‭-‬2 NKJV).

Jesus functions in the Spirit and through the Spirit of God. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” (Romans 8:14 NKJV). It’s the only way to know the things of God.

“But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 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. 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. These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 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. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” (I Corinthians 2:10‭-‬16 NKJV). Which means we have to be led by the Spirit, like Christ did.

Galatians 2:20 puts it this way :
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me…
+Christ lives in us through the Holy Spirit and His Word.
Then 1 Corinthians 6:19 says:
+The Holy Spirit is in us so that Christ can live through us while we live by every Word of God, as Matthew 4:4 tells us.

+Only then will we think things through the Mind of Christ
+When we speak, His Words will be our vocabulary.
+When we act or do things ,it is by His Strength, Power, and Authority.
As Philippians 2:13 says:
For it is God Who works in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure.
•And the Lord Said: Continue to let My WORD be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like I your Lord Jesus Christ Loves you while keeping your Faith, Trust and Confidence in Me.

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]

•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be, and to My Father, The Holy Spirit and I your Lord be all the GLORY. Amen!

REMEMBER NOTHING is impossible for God.
Genesis 18:13-14 says this :
And the LORD said unto Abraham…
Is anything too hard for the LORD?…
If this is the Lord’s question to you regarding your present problem, what would your answer be?

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” Immediately, the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” (Mark 9:23‭-‬24 NKJV).

But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” (Mark 10:27 NKJV).

DO YOU BELIEVE? Then I say unto you be encouraged ,and stay encouraged.

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.” (Psalms 37:4‭-‬9 NKJV).
-There is nothing that is too hard,nor impossible for 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].

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to Jesus be all the glory. Amen!

“And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:8‭-‬11 NKJV).

Philippians 2:3-4 tells us :
Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.

LET’S PRAY :
HEAVENLY FATHER, GOD AND FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, at the start of each day, help us to recognize you above all else. Enlighten the eyes of our heart that we might see you, and notice how you’re at work through our lives. Give us wisdom to make the best choices, fill us with a desire to seek after you more than anything else in this world. Let your Spirit and power breathe in us, through us, again, fresh and new. Thank you that you are greater than anything we may face in our day. Thank you that your presence goes with us, and that your joy is never dependent on our circumstances, but it is our true and lasting strength, no matter what we’re up against. We ask that your peace lead us, that it would guard our hearts and minds in you. We ask for your grace to cover our lives this day. We love you Lord.

Dear Lord, I don’t know who or what will cross my path today. But I do know that You are my Rock and my Fortress. You are my Shield and my Strong Tower. Help me to anchor myself to You today. Teach me how to stand strong in You and choose only Your way today. Help me walk by Your truth and not my feelings. Help me to embrace anything that comes my way as an opportunity to see You at work and as an opportunity to point others to You. Thank You that You love me and nothing can ever take that away from me! Even if I fail today and fall short, You whisper Your unconditional love deep into my soul and remind me that Your mercies are new every morning. That truly amazes me, Lord. Thank You for meeting with me today. Would You wake me again tomorrow with the same sweet whisper of Your love? I can’t wait to meet with You again. In Jesus’ Name,
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]

YOU ARE NOT HOPELESS!
HOPE: a desired belief and expectation of the fulfillment of the promises of God in our lives.
Psalm 146:5 says this :
Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose HOPE is in the LORD his God:
David says in Psalm 71:5, “For You are my HOPE, O Lord God…”

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1 NKJV).

“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:1‭-‬8 KJV).

Proverb 13:12 reminds us that :
Without HOPE the the heart becomes sick.
-You are never without HOPE in the Lord.
-Keep your HOPE in the Lord.
-God blesses those whose HOPE is in Him, and happy are those whose HOPE is in the Lord.

“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].

+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to Jesus be all the glory. Amen!
