FASTING PROVES YOUR LOVE FOR GOD

What is fasting? you may wonder,and what are thr benefits of fasting? Here are some insights. Fasting is sacrificing the delicacies in your life to honor God. Unfortunately most people honor God only when they want something but whatever our reasons may be God is glorified and the devil is horrified. The next question you may be asking is why the devil is horrified. Well this may be the easiest question I have to answer. The devil is horrified because he remembers that when our Lord and Savior walked on the earth, Jesus fasted and he came out more powerful and spiritually inclined.

Children of God, it is of the ut-most importance to fast because when we do we walk in the power and authority like Jesus Christ. We can exercise our God-given authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall, by any means, hurt us (Luke 10 :19). It is sad when a Christian walks around defeated because they don’t know or understand the power that they have.

Fasting tells and shows God, not people, that we love Him, and are willing to sacrifice or give up certain things for a period of time,(which is between you and God). For example certain types of food that you absolutely love, or television, this is a good one – the internet (if it’s not for His use or to honor Him), how about gossiping, or idle chatter, wow! There are so many things we could give up that we adore just to honor God.

Remember this is not something you tell everyone, this is personal between you and God. It is when you broadcast it all over the globe that you become a hypocrite and lose your reward (Matthew 6 :16-18). Fasting allows the true Christian to bring their body or flesh under subjection and eliminate the flesh with its lust and deadly desires. This is how and when James 4:7 take root and is activated, because you submit to God and resist the devil, so he has to flee, like he fled from Jesus(Matthew 4 :1-11).

How many of us as Christians really fast? Do you know and understand the crippling effect it has on the enemy? Daniel fasted, David fasted, and Jesus did too. So as believers why aren’t you? God is not worth it? If His only begotten son fasted, you are certainly no exception, or maybe you don’t love Him (God) enough. Come on children of God it’s time to take God serious, in these latter days, we need to be prayed up and fasting.

Now let me let you in on a secret, when you are on a fast, it is the best time to study the Bible; to be on your knees constantly praying, because you will hear His voice clearly, and know His will, intentions and plans for your life. Don’t forget just like Jeremiah, in Jeremiah 1 :5, He ( God) knew us before we were born. So are you for God or not? Are you interested in knowing God, then accept His gift of His only begotten son (Jesus Christ) John 3:16-17.

Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go to God, for using me to get His message out to us. May His grace, mercy, and truth be yours, and may He give you spiritual wisdom, knowledge and discernment when you read His word, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

BE FILLED WITH THE WORD

There is something magical about the word of God. Some people will get it but unfortunately some will not. First we must understand that the word is spiritually discerned, so naturally it would be considered as foolishness or nonsense to a lot of people.

Why you may ask? Well, it states in 2 Corinthians 2: 14 that the word is not meant to be comprehensible to the natural man so it is pointless to argue with others. However, for those of us who have the privilege of understanding and interpreting the word, we know a couple of things.

We know there is power and life in the word, found in Hebrews 4:12 and John 6:63. We are aware that there is healing in the word (Matthew 8:8) as well as exhortation/ advice (acts 13:15). There is contentment and security ( 1 Thessalonians 4:18), as well as truth and soberness (James 1:18 and Acts 26:25).

If you believe that I could go on forever about what the word has and what it can do then you are absolutely correct. The question I must ask you is if you understand it yet? If you do understand it then speak it in your life. Be able to explain it to or share it with someone who could use it in their lives ( Jeremiah  23:28).

Here are some helpful reminders that you may need. The word of God is quick, powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit of the joints and marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intent of the heart ( Hebrews 4:12). When Gods word goes forth it never returns to him void, it is filled with accomplishments and prosperity of what God wants and where he sent it (Isaiah 55:11).

 Allow God to order your steps in his word so that no iniquity may have dominion over you (Psalm 119:133). King David said to “Hide Gods word in your heart so that you will not sin against God “(Psalm 119:11).‘Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path (Psalms 119:105). That is confirmation from an expert on the power of the word and there are trillions of people who can attest to the facts about it. Gods word is like food , in 1 Peter 2:2 Petter called the word pure milk for the new believers. In Hebrews 5: 12-14 and 1 Corinthians 3:2,Paul said that Gods word is strong meat for the seasoned christian.  Now which category do you fall under?

‘How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea sweeter than honey to my mouth!(psalm 119;103). Friends why don’t you taste and see that the Lord is good (Psalm 34:8)Receive the engrafted word of God today(James 1:21) because you will not escape hell if you keep neglecting the infallible and unadulterated word of God. If you don’t know God or His only beloved son, Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17),then it is impossible for you to be able to grasp his word. To know and understand Jesus, who is known as the word(John 1:1,14;Revelation 19:13),you have to read the word of God.

Why not start today! If you’re brave enough and ready go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page and then follow the instructions. It will be the best day of your life and there will be rejoicing in heaven. All glory, praise, honor and thanks go to  our God. Heavenly Father thank you for inspiring me to share your  message with the world.

WHAT’S IN THE GLASS

Most people don’t realize that we are born with an empty glass, and what we fill that glass with determines, our future or where we will end up in this life or the next. The sad thing about it is that some people blame their parents, friends or their environment for what is poured in their glass. But I was sent, to let you know that everyone is responsible for themselves, it is your choice, and decision as to what is poured into your glass. You can fill it with love or hate, good or bad, peace or war, now you must realize by this, that one thing is of God, and the other of the devil. One leads to eternal life, the other leads to hell.

You better believe there is a heaven, and a hell, if you don’t then I am afraid you have filled your glass with contaminated water, that if you keep drinking it, will lead to the destruction of your life. If you have filled your glass with the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life, then the devil has you on a one way ticket to hell, so you better hop off, get off, jump off, whatever you have to do, you need to be off of that train or bus. “The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord “Romans 6:23.

Stop filling up your glass with: sexual immorality, impurity, hatred, jealousy, drunkenness, violence, idolatry, murder, etc. folks who live like this will not inherit the Kingdom of God But if you fill your glass with the fruits of the spirit: Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self-control, etc, you will find that your life will be ten times better, and you are on your way to glory (Galatians 5:19-26).

For everyone shall bear his own burden….be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man sows that he will also reap, if you live only to satisfy your own sinful desires, you will harvest the consequences of sin, which is death, and destruction, but if you live to satisfy the spirit, you will reap everlasting life – Galatians 6:5-8.

Also know that the only way to God is through His son Jesus Christ (John 3:16 – 17, John 14:6) so if you don’t know God or His son go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. I give God the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to send His message out, I pray it bless’ you as it did me.

WHATS YOUR EXCUSE

                                                                                                                                                               I would love to see the report, or answers the astrologer,genealogist,cosmologist,and the scientific opinions, report or views of these people, if Jesus comes today.I can just imagine these geniuses,and their followers, trying to analyze where they went wrong,how did they missed the truth,and facts about this same Jesus.I can see the false prophets ,bailing out on their congregation,seeking to save their own soul,but unfortunately it will be too late for him also,and his congregation.Because ,God says,to follow him,as he follow Christ Jesus,not his own lust and desires.Furthermore ,you own a Bible for yourself, did you check in it to see if ,who you are following is on the path, or road you want to be on. Are you, just going to take his word for it,or are you going to seek the truth for yourself. There is a scripture that tells us to,’ Seek ye first the kingdom of God ,and His righteousness,and everything will be added unto you'(Matthew 6:33),I love this one ,’If any of you lack wisdom,let him ask of God,who giveth to all men liberally,and without reproach(finding fault),and it shall be given him.But let him ask in faith,without doubting,for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven,and tossed by the wind,let not that man think that he will receive anything from the Lord,a double-minded person is unstable in all his ways'(James 1:5-8).Sorry,there is no excuse for your ignorance or lack of knowledge,that was the first thing,Solomon ask for ,from God( 1 Kings 3:9-10),unfortunately my friends there is no excuse. It truly,breaks my heart to see people out there,behaving as if there is no God ,no Jesus,no heaven or hell,I hate to disappoint you, but these things do exist.  In the last days scoffers will come,walking after,                or according to their own lusts,and saying ,where is the promise of His coming?( 2 Peter 3:3-12). I wonder how many people out there,really think that there is no God,or think that they can never die,or even consider, what would happen if  they should die this minute, or Jesus comes back,this second.Will  they realize that it would be too late,or will they think of, how many times they reject messages like this. However,if you want to know Jesus, as you personal Lord and savior,go to the top of this blog,click on to the salvation page,and follow the instructions,trust me ,it will be the best decision you make,in your entire life. I give God the glory,praise,honor,and thanks for using me to get His message out there to the lost,and dying,I pray it was a blessing to you,as it was to me,and you will allow Jesus to be the focal point of your life,doing His will,obeying His commands,and allowing Him to direct your path according to Proverbs 3:5-6,in Jesus Name,amen.
