YOUR IDENTITY

You better know who you are and whose you are. Money, fame, or fortune, not even your education defines who you are, because you might be able to buy certain things to portray a certain image on the outside, but inside could be rotten as a spoiled egg. As a Christian your identity is from inside out. We are made in God’s image and likeness, as we read in (Genesis 1:26-28). This means our characteristics, personality, etc. should be like our Daddy/Heavenly Father. If we portray or display anything different from love and compassion then you have the wrong daddy.

Must I remind you that you are fearfully and wonderfully made. Your substance was not hidden from God, even though it was a secret between your parents, it was never a secret from God (Psalms 139:13-15). When you came into the world God looked at you and said that you are good. Which means if you don’t see and know it for yourself, then no one else will notice. Self confidence and esteem begins with you. If you can’t identify yourself, then you are hopelessly lost, to sin and the devil, because you have allowed him to cover your eyes. However, you can change all that.

First you must realize that you are a child of God not the devil. John 3:16 tells us that God so loved us, He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him (Jesus) should not perish but have everlasting life. This is where your identity comes into effect, because John 1:12-13 tells us, “But as many as received Him (Jesus) to them gave he power to become the children of God, even to them that believe on His name, who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of men, but of God.”

“Behold, what manner of love the Father (God) hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the children of God. Therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not; Beloved, now we are the children of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is, and everyone who has this hope in Him should purify themselves, because He is pure.”  ——————————————1 John 3:1-3

Don’t allow the devil to steal your identity. You belong to God and no one on earth can take care of you, love you, protect you, comfort you, and guide you like your Heavenly Father. Stand up and identify yourself. “For it is God who worked in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure, do all things without murmurings and disputing; that you may be blameless and harmless children of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom we shine as lights in the world.” (Philippians 2:13-15).

“Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remained in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.” —————-1 John 3:9-10

Who do you identify yourself with? You can change if it’s not with God. Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page and follow the instructions. For further teachings and studies on the word of God ask the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you.

Now unto Him who is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless, before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God, our Savior, be glory, majesty, praise, thanks, dominion, and power for using me to minister to His children now and forever,in JESUS Name Amen.

THE GOOD & BAD

Doing Good Always Pays Off
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.
•Let us make a conscious effort to sow in the lives of others and to do good to others as often as we can.

For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
{Romans 7:15-25 }
Remember, what 2 Corinthians 9:6 says,
…he who sows bountifully shall also reap bountifully. Therefore, if you sow a lot of good,you will reap a whole lot of good. That’s as simple as it gets.
Acts 20:35
…it is more blessed to give than to receive.
•The beginning of receiving is giving.
James 4:2
…all of you have not, because all of you ask not.
•You can also have not because you gave not.
Luke 6:38
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running  over, shall men give into your bosom…
Colossians 2:23-24
23 And whatsoever all of you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24 Knowing that of the Lord all of you shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for all of you serve the  Lord Christ.
+++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!

VICTORY

We got the victory Hallelujah.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
{I Corinthians 15:57 }
What is more important to you?
-Getting your victory or giving God the glory for your victory?
-Do you celebrate and enjoy your victories more than you glorify God for your victories?
-Don’t feel bad we all have been guilty of this at some point or another.
-Instead of celebrating the victory let us make a radical change to glorify God and let giving God all the glory be the celebration.
Psalm 34:1-3
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make its boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
-Too often many of us wait until we are in a good mood or having a good time before we can praise the Lord.
-Remember there is praise that is highly accessible unto the Lord, and that is called the sacrifice of praise.
-Even when you don’t feel like it and things are not going the expected  way make a sacrifice and praise God anyhow.
Hebrews 13:15
By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
+++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!

Prayer works

James 5:16
…pray one for another, …The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
-Father in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Beloved Son, I pray You open doors for the person who is reading this right now.
-Only you can open doors no one can close, and also close the doors that are opened that should be closed, and for that I thank you and honor you today.
-Thank you for the open doors of life, health, strength, prosperity, wealth, and love.
-Also, thank you for closing the doors of death, sickness, weakness, despair, poverty, and bitterness.
-I love and trust You Lord with all my heart and give You all the glory, all the praise and all the honor.
-I seal this prayer in Your Holy Name Lord Jesus, Amen!!
-Have a blessed day!!
-The Mighty Hand of the Lord is upon you.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

GOD’S WORD IS….

God’s word is a guide to love and happiness, if you choose to live,and obey every part of it.
King David said, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path”.
{Psalms 119:105},and he went further by saying,
“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments. Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name. Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts. Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes”.
{Psalms 119:130-135}.
LISTEN
-The Word of God is more important to our lives than oxygen and natural foods.
-Oxygen and natural foods is only for life on earth, but the Word of God is for life on earth and life in Heaven.
Matthew 4:4 Jesus said:
It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. Which was first said in Deuteronomy 8:3.

However,2 Timothy 2:15 tells us to ,Study (the Word) to show yourself approved unto God…
Why ? Because,” And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 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, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
[2 Timothy 3:15-17 ]

In John 14:23 (AMP)
Jesus answered, If a person [really] loves Me, he will keep My word [obey My teaching]…
-The more you live by the Word of God the more you will experience 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!

GOD’S WISDOM, not MAN’S

And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.  For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.  And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.  And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:  That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.  Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:  But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:  Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.  But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.  For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.  Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.  But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.  For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.{1 Corinthians 2:1-16}

So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air. There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification. Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order.
[1 Corinthians 14:9-12, 26-40]

DON’T GIVE UP,no matter what.

What do you do when you are on the road to victory and you get tired, weary, and discouraged?
-Do not give up. The Lord is still with you. He is your Victory and your Strength.
“Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint”.
{Isaiah 40:30-31}
-Remember you can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you.
-The Lord is the Strength of your life. He is your Wisdom, your Prince of Peace and your Joy.
-He has given His Angels Charge over you to keep you in all His ways.
In Psalm 27:13-14 David said:
I would’ve fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory.

GIVE IT ALL TO GOD

Have you given all your problems to the Lord?
1 Peter 5:7 (AMP)
Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him (Jesus), for He (Jesus) cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.
Matthew 12:28-30 Jesus said:
28 Come unto me, all you that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and all of you shall find  rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
-In spite of all that we maybe going through the Lord is our Deliverer, Redeemer, Protector and Provider. He will see us through to victory.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory.
