EXCHANGE GIFTS WITH THE DEVIL

The best gift for Christmas is never found under a tree, but it was hung on a tree ,shaped like a cross. So this year let’s give the devil back his gifts of the world like : depression, death,or any kind of losses, defeat,stress,cares,etc,and accept the gift of life,love,joy,peace, etc,that God gives through His Son.
This time of the year can be the most challenging for many people, especially if they loss a love one,their jobs,house,or something of value, or it could be an event,occurrence, or tragic situation that’s a constant reminder. But whatever it is there is a solution or an answer for it all. However, let’s set the record straight, you can only overcome death, difficulties, trials tribulations, debts, and every obstacle life has thrown at you, if and when you become a child of God. Why,only then? Because, when you accept Jesus,you exchange your sins,problems, burdens,and everything that keeps you down ,for His peace,joy,and rest,etc.

All it takes is you believing, trusting, obeying and having faith in God. If you can’t believe, trust and obey then you are not going to overcome anything. God never lies as Numbers 23:19 tells us; and He is not slack concerning His promises (2 Peter 3:9). However, He encourages us in Hebrew 10:23 to hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for He is faithful that promised.

So to overcome everything I mentioned above you have to believe God’s word and see yourself as His child that has overcome because of Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son. Then stand on all His promises in the God inspired book called the Bible. Get to know your Creator for yourself so that you will know for a fact that, “ye are of God little children and have overcome them (difficulties, trials, tribulations, debts, heartaches, etc) because greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.” Do you know who you believe in and are you persuaded that He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all you ask our think as 2 Timothy 1:12 and Ephesians 3:20 says?

Jesus warns us in John 16:33 that in the world we will have tribulation, but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world. So if you are not an overcomer you better stop and take a look inside to see if the Holy Spirit is living in you or if your habituous sin is blocking Him from residing in you. No I am not judging you, but if you are children of God, live like it. Revelation 12:10-11,”.. Now is come salvation,and strength,and the Kingdom of Our God,and the power of His Christ;for the accuser of our brethren is cast down,who accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,and by the word of their testimony ,and they love not their lives unto the death”. We are overcomers,it’s already written.Read what Romans 8:5-19 says. I will quote a few key scriptures, but if you love God and what to overcome go read it all. Seek God for yourself, draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. God’s Holy Spirit will teach you all things, YOU not your pastor or bishop, HE will do it,  if you want Him to. Why settle for second best when He has the best for you.

Romans 8:
5. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither, indeed can it be.
8. So they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9b. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ he is not of His.
14. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, “Abba Father”.

Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2 Corinthians 3:17). The Holy Spirt frees you from bondage of death, doubts, etc. and turns you into an overcomer.

1 John 5:4 For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

LIFE

I remember the song, “I only have one life to live, and I am going to live it.” The devil has allowed us to think that we only have one life to live so we must party, and do all kinds of illicit and immoral acts like you don’t care or you only have one life to live.

It’s amazing how we allow people and things to influence how we think, act or behave. Then we unintentionally become copy cats of the wrong things.

Please stop thinking like that. The devil comes to steal, kill and destroy your life, trying to make you think that you only have one life. But Jesus came so that we might have life, and have it more abundantly (John 10:10). So stop being fooled, because he is doomed, he wants you to follow him to hell.

This is why I say read your contract the Bible. It’s laid out for you plain and simple. Here are a few exclusive verses from the contract on life:

  1. Genesis 2:7 – God is the breath of life, and He did not say you have one life to live, and if that was the case live it for Him.
  2. Jer.21:8 – He set before you life and death. It’s your choice.
  3. Psalm 30:5 –  In His favor is life.
  4. Proverbs 8:35 – Whosoever findeth me (God) findeth life.
  5. Luke 12:15 – It’s not what you have that makes you live, otherwise rich folks would not die.

John 13:37 tells us that Jesus put His life on the line for us, so that we can live forever. So let us please live for God.

To accept Christ into your life say this prayer, “Lord, I am a sinner. Please forgive me of all my sins. Transform me from my head to my feet, come into my heart now, so I can be a new creature and live for you daily. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.”
