TROUBLED but not WORRIED

HEAVENS delights will by far outweigh earths difficulties.
“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us”.
[Romans 8:18]

YES:
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So then death is working in us, but life in you. 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.{2 Corinthians 4:8-18}

JESUS WARNED,and CONSOLE US:
These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”{John 16:33}

GOD’S ANSWER:
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. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.(2 Corinthians 12:8-10).

The solution:
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.{James 1:2-4 }

REMEMBER:
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 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, 5-8 ]

FINALLY:
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[Romans 8:35-39 ]

LOVE KILLS HATE

Love suffers long and is kind (hate have no patience  and is unkind); love does not envy(hate is envious); love does not parade itself, is not puffed up(hateful folks love to show off  and are stuck  up); does not behave rudely, does not seek its own(hateful  folks are rude,and selfish  ), is not provoked, thinks no evil; (hateful folks gets upset easy,and always planning to their revenge);does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; (hateful  people celebrates when things go bad for others);bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 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.《1 Corinthians 13:4‭-‬8 》​

GOD SAYS,

“And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.” {1 Peter 4:8 }

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 4:18‭-‬21}

However ,in Romans 12:9 it says, Let LOVE be without dissimulation (hypocrisy)…

+If we cannot Love God, we cannot Love others, and we cannot Love other, we cannot Love God. 

1 Tim 5:21 

…doing nothing by PARTIALITY (personal prejudice or favoritism). 

+Love is always without PARTIALITY. 

+Love has no beginning, and Love never ends. 

+Before we came into this world Love existed, and after we leave this world Love will continue to remain. 

+There isn’t a time when Love is not needed.  

+Love always gives WHAT is needed, and WHEN it’s needed. 

+Love is Pure, Holy, Righteous, and True. 

•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!

DON’T  LOSE FOCUS  

What are you like looking at ? Your problems,the troubles of this world?  The election,your bills. Listen : Change your focus,shift your attention, and look up.

The only  person  that ever give up their life,for you is Jesus,not the politicians , nor your friends . The only  one that never  ever break a promise  is God.  

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls. You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin.《Hebrews 12:1‭-‬4》

While  everyone  is focusing  on the election ,and their problems ,Christians main concern  should  be the coming  of Christ. “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. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you. Nevertheless, to the  degree that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind. Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern. For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that  they  are  the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is  their belly, and whose glory is in their shame— who set their mind on earthly things. For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself. 《Philippians 3:13-21》

IT’S  SIMPLE  :

If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth,{ Colossians 3:1-2}
King David, changed his focus from his trials and tribulations, and without hesitation, he declared:
” I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord , which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.[ Psalms 121:1-8].
God suggests, through the Apostle Paul says,” I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.{Romans 12:1-3}
When people around you,can’t see the things you see,pray for them,like Elisha did, ” And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord , I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
{2 Kings 6:16-17}
Finally Remember:
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.
[1 Corinthians 2:9-14]

THE WORD 

​Fundamental Principles of the Word of God 

-If something is worth doing, do it right. 

-Never murmur and complain to God. 

-God doesn’t answer murmurs and complaints. 

-God answers PRAYERS that are prayed in FAITH, and PRAYERS that are based on His WORD. 

Mark 12:24 

Therefore I say unto you, What things whatsoever all of you desire, when all of you pray, believe that  all of you receive them, and all of you shall have them. 

1 John 5:14-15

 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he hears us,And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired  of him. 

-Pray the problem don’t murmur and complain the problem. 

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

TRY HEAVEN

​Don’t let the devil choose for you.

You have a chance to go to heaven. TAKE IT
Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who  is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected forever.

[Hebrews 7:25-28]
