PRIDE BEFORE THE FALL

Be very careful who you step on, spit on, or lie on to get to the top, because you will pass them on the way down. One supervisor once told me that, a person must be careful of the foot they step on, because it might be connected to the buttocks they are kissing. Both  statements are true, and Biblically connected. Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honor is humility (Proverbs 18:12; Psalm 10 :2). Isn’t it amazing that when a person has no education, no job, nothing of value to their name, they can be so humble, kind, meek and compassionate, with  all the good attributes that a person should portray, but as soon as they get that degree, job, house, car or some money to their name they are a changed person, they develop the Jekyll and Hyde personality, and totally forget who they were and where they are coming from.

We should never allow the pride of our hearts to deceive us, because it will bring us down (Jeremiah 49:16); one thing I want you to understand, If God won’t get the glory then you don’t have a story. However if we give God the glory, then it’s automatically a success story, we can do nothing without God, He owns and controls everything (Proverbs 28:25-26); lets not allow the fortunes of this world to change our concept of who we are and whose we are. Don’t get high-minded or arrogant when we get to the top, and putting all our hopes and trust in uncertain riches (1 Timothy 6:17-19). The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil, and the more you crave it, the further you get from God, which in turn brings sorrows into your life. You must remember that, we did not bring anything in this world and we definitely can’t take it with us; another thing you must realize, is that you can’t use money to buy your way into heaven, or out of hell; it does not buy you eternal life, or keep you from death, so why gain the world, and lose your soul. Godliness with contentment is great gain( 1 Timothy 6:6-12), so why not seek God, and let Him take care of you.

I give all glory, praise, honor, and thanks to God for using me to get His message out to His people.

SPIRITUAL SUPER-DADDY

In life most people depend on a job, spouse, parents, a sugar daddy or sugar mommy to take care of them, which means they have to do something to keep the supplier of that money, food, clothes or shelter going. Some people do some unimaginable things, that is unethical, unrighteous, and plain disgusting, when you have to sell your soul to the devil, because of pride or greed then it’s unholy.

However, I must introduce you to my spiritual  super-daddy, who is also my sugar-daddy, my God, my redeemer, and my King who we all can depend on, trust, and who never leaves or forsake us. A sugar-daddy or mommy is not going to give you anything, if you are not connected to them in someway, or doing something that will merit the rewards; Our Heavenly Father is some what the same way, the big difference is we are not required to perform duties that is not Holy, acceptable, or reasonable to God;There is no father like Him,none that can be compared to Him,He is one of a kind.

Our Fathers requirements are simple: Delight yourself in the Lord,and He will give you the desires of your heart(Psalm 37:4); ask, seek, knock,and He will answer (Luke 11:9-10), but before you can do all that you must first accept God’s gift of His only begotten son Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17), then confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the  dead then you will be saved (Romans 10:9); Here is another gift, ‘repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit’ (Acts 2:38).

Now that you established a relationship with God, He has taken on the role as your super daddy, spiritual daddy, and your sugar daddy, so for you to start receiving those good, and perfect gifts which only comes from above ( James 1:17); we must present our bodies as living sacrifice, Holy and acceptable unto God which is our reasonable service (Romans 12:1). Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and everything will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33); but my God shall supply all of my needs according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19); and whatever we ask, we receive of Him, because we keep His commandments, and do those things which are pleasing to Him (1 John 3:22); and whatever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the son. If ye shall ask anything in my name,I  will do it (John 14:13-14); He told us to ask and it shall be given unto us, seek and we will find, knock and it will be open unto us (Luke 11:9-10).

Trusting in God has afforded us the privilege, confidence and trust in our spiritual super daddy, that come what may He is able to see us through, King David tells us that, he will trust  God until his calamities have ceased to exist (Psalm 57:1). Would you like to be able to say that too, then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the sweetest day of your life, and better as you seek Gods will .

Now to the King Eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be the glory, praise, honor, and thanks, for using me to minister to His people, now and forever, in Jesus Name, amen.

QUICK ANSWERS

Did you know that God also uses caller I.D.? If you are a person, who always murmurs and complains, do you really think God wants to listen to you all day; Some people  are just never happy or satisfied, it seems like they always have problems, always fussing about something, or someone. The Bible says, bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of christ(Galatians 6:2), yes the Bible did say so, but it does not mean murmuring, complaining, fussing, and fighting. I must tell you the truth, that’s a tactic of the devil to keep you in the wilderness for forty years, or till you die; murmuring, complaining, and fussing is of the devil, and that’s sinning against God, and Jesus did not intend for us to bear other people’s sin, sorry you are on your own. Don’t you just love it when people quote scriptures out of context, so you can correct them. Stop listening to the devil, if you want quick answers to your prayers, it requires some adjustment to your attitude and lifestyle, which are : righteousness, effectual and fervent prayers, then back those up with thanksgiving, praise, and worship to God. Let me break it down to you, the Bible says the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much ( James 5:16). Righteousness my friends is to be in right standing with God, a relationship with him, a righteous person does not allow sin to dwell in them, their motto is : “If  we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness”(1 John 1:9). A righteous person knows that the eyes of the Lord is on him, and God’s ears are open to his prayers (1 Peter 3:12), King David furthered by stating,”I have been young and now old; yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread “( Psalms 37:25). Then Jesus tells us,”To seek God first and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you”(Matthew 6:33). Now lets put them all together to work for our good: Effectual means effective, fervent means a strong feeling, righteous means you are favorably right with God, availed means it’s already a done deal, then to put the icing on your prayers, just start singing, dancing, praising, and thanking God. Just in case you didn’t know, the Lord inhabits the praise of His people (Psalms 22:3). King David, praised God seven times a day, because of His righteous judgements(Psalm 119:164), that’s why David’s prayers were answered, he even dance himself out of his clothes praising God, that’s how you get quick answers folks.

To know God, you must know His only begotten son Jesus Christ, He is the only way to God, here are a few scriptures to back it up (John 3:16-17, Romans 10:9, John 14:6, Romans 3:21-24). This is a faithful, and true statement worthy of all acceptation, that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15). Don’t allow the devil to confuse, or trick you any longer, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the best decision you ever do regarding your future. All praises, glory, honor, and thanks go to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for using me to get His message out to His children.

PROSPERITY

It’s God’s desire for His children to prosper, most people love to hear about prosperity, and with most preachers that’s all they preach about. Prosperity means you are doing well or flourishing. But doing well or flourishing how? Godly prosperity means you flourish spiritually, physically, mentally, and in every way possible. The Bible says,”Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospered “(3 John 2).

God’s main concern is for our soul,”For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul”? ( Matthew 16:26). When, you seek prosperity, with no concern for your soul you are going to perish (James 5:1-6). The Bible says,”seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and He will add the rest”( Matthew 6:33); God told Joshua,”This book of the law ( The Bible) shall not depart from thy mouth, but thou shall meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written there in; for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou have good success”( Joshua 1:8).

Children of God, stand firm and declare that, the God of heaven will prosper us, therefore we, His servants will arise and build (Nehemiah 2:20); we must believe, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us ( Philippians 4:13). Godly prosperity is knowing, that because you are righteous and seek God first, that without a shadow of doubt, He will supply your needs according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper (2 Chronicles 20:20b). However, children of God, we must remember that, Godliness with contentment is great gain; for we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out….for the love of money is the root of all evil, which, while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows (1 Timothy 6: 6-10).

But thou, O children of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, Godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness; Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, unto which thou art also called and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses( 1 Timothy 6:11-12). Do you desire the things of God more than earthly possession and prosperity? Then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be worth it, because if you give God your all and best, trust me He will do the same for you.

All glory ,praise, honor, and thanks go to God, the Father of our Lord, and savior Jesus Christ, for using me to deliver His message to His children, may the God of peace, grace and mercy, bless and keep you now and forever in Jesus Name, amen.

DIRECT ACCESS THROUGH PRAYERS

Have you ever considered how many prayers go up to God per second? How many get answered, and how many don’t. Have you realized that half the people who pray for you need prayers for themselves, and the other half  don’t even pray, or remember you. That’s why it’s very important that you pray for yourself, at least you are positive, and one hundred percent sure, that your request, petitions, and questions are made known to God.

Praying is the only way, we as children of God can communicate with Our Heavenly Father. Before Jesus came, the people had to go through the prophets of God, to seek forgiveness of their sins (1 Samuel 12:19-25), and he was obligated to intercede on behalf of the people, because, if he did not, he would have to answer to God, it was also a sin, because he was appointed by God to pray for, and give Godly advise to Gods children (1 Samuel 12:23), I wonder how many bishops, pastors, evangelist, etc. realize that if  someone requests, seeks or asks for their prayers, and they don’t, it’s a sin. Why ? Because, that is part of the job requirement. However, I love to pray for myself, and others, because, the effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much (James 5:16).

Now if you are righteous you have no problem, but my question to you is, how do you know for a fact that your bishop, pastor, or  whomever, is righteous? Which means you are gambling with your life, and taking a big risk. But if you are in a solid relationship with God, it renders you righteous,thus making your effectual fervent prayers availed mightily; doesn’t that make a whole lot of sense, why take a chance, yes it’s good when they pray, but it’s better when you do. The Bible says, ‘we ought always to pray’ (Luke 18:1); ‘pray without ceasing’ ( 1 Thessalonians  5:17). Jesus gave us direct access to God. He said, through His Name, ask whatever, and it’s done(John 14:13,John 16:23-26) now you tell me, why should I depend on someone, when I can do it for myself, as long as I am faithful, righteous, and Holy. Jesus shows us how to do it: Wake up early, find a secluded, and quiet place, away from the noise, and clutter of the world, so that you can hear from God.  Listen, before the day gets hectic, and chaotic you must find out from the master, what His plans are? What His will, and wishes are? In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path (Proverbs 3:6). Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and everything else will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33), show me in those scriptures, where it says to seek your bishop, pastor, or anyone else. You better learn how to pray for yourself, I think the bishop, or pastor would be upset if everyone tried to wake him up early to pray for them, especially if, he himself is up praying for himself.  Prayer gets your mind, soul, and body focused on your divine assignment from God, it prepares you for the battle of the day, it prepares you not to fight, but to stand with your armor (Ephesians 6:13-18) so that when God moves you move, that’s abiding under the shadow of the almighty (Psalms 91:1).

If you don’t know God or His only begotten son Jesus Christ (John 3:16, John 14:6),then you are not privileged to this access, do you want to? Then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the simple instructions, trust me it will be the best thing you ever did in your entire life. I must give glory, praise, honor, and thanks to God for using me, to get His message out the people, I pray it blessed you as it did me, and you will obey His will and wishes for your life in Jesus Name, amen.

OBEDIENCE OR SACRIFICE

Isn’t it amazing,that when we are supposed to consult with our Heavenly Father about certain things,that we don’t.Or,  when we are supposed to trust Him with everything that we don’t.Unfortunately it is when we get stuck in our trials,tribulations,aches,and pain; that’s when, we are seeking Him,praying to Him,and begging Him for help.The sad part about it is, we expect God  just to fix our mess instantaneously,when we didn’t call upon Him to begin with.Most of us can’t take it when God apply the belt of truth to our butts,I can just here God saying softly,My child did seek me first?Did you follow my instructions in the Holy Bible?Have you ever obey all my commandments?Have you acknowledge me or even trust me?Did you ever try to find out the plans I have for you? Lets look at Gods answers: It is written,”God has set before us a blessing ,and a curse..Blessings when you obey His commands,and curses when you don’t obey them”(Deuteronomy 11:26-28).  It is written,”To obey is better than sacrifice ( 1 Samuel 15:22).Now ,can you imagine all the blessings you sacrifice,just because of disobedience,and then inherit all these curses.,it’s time for a real reality check-up on yourself. Hold up, God ,is not finish yet, here is some more:It’s written,”Seek ye first the kingdom of God ,and His righteousness,and everything else will be added unto you(Matthew 6:33),let me tell you a secret; blessings add,and multiply;curses subtract,and divide;now you understand why there is so much hatred,dishonesty,sexual immorality,sickness,diseases,and a whole lot of other things.     Here is another,It is written,”Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge Him;and He shall direct your path”(Proverbs 3:5-6).Yes,the sin of this one man ,Adam,caused death to rule over us,but all who received Gods wonderful,gracious gift of righteousness will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man,Jesus Christ….Because one person disobeyed God,many people became sinners,but because one other person obeyed God,many people will be made right in Gods sight( Romans 5:12-21).Are you one of the right ones ,who is obeying God,the only way to God is through His gift,His son Jesus Christ(John 3:16-17;John 6:40,Romans 5:21,John 14:6),that’s Gods written proof,and more.If you don’t Jesus Christ,as your personal Lord and savior,go to the top of this blog,click on to the salvation page,and just follow the instructions,it will be the best decision you ever make. I give God the glory,praise,honor,and thanks for using me to deliver His message to His people,I prau it blessed you as it did me,and may you walk according to His will,and way in Jesus Name ,amen.”HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS”(ROMANS 10:15)

KNOWING GODS WILL

To know Gods will, you must first know Him; to know Him, you must know His word, and follow the word, which is His only begotten son Jesus Christ, who came to introduce us to the true, and living God (John 1:1-14). ‘For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son’ (John 3:16-17), so now we know, that it’s not Gods will for anyone to perish, but for all of us to have eternal life.

To truly know Gods will, there are certain criteria, we must follow: we must accept the gift of His son Jesus Christ(John 14:6), we need to confess our sins, and ask for forgiveness(repentance)(1 John 1:9,Proverbs 28:13), we must seek Him, and His righteousness first (Matthew 6:33).

To be righteous, you must be in right standing with God (Romans 8:10,2 Corinthians 5:21). To be in right standing with God, you must deny yourself, obey His commands and will. You see folks to know God’s will you must know Him, and the power of His might (Psalm 46:8-10). In all your ways, you must acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path(Proverbs 3:6), we know His will when we study His word, ‘study to show yourself approved unto God’ (2 timothy 2:15), we know His will through prayers, ‘confess our faults, and pray for each other, that we may be healed, the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous person availeth much'(James 5:16). ‘For I know the plans I have for you’, says the Lord,’plans to prosper you, and not to hurt you, plans to give you hope, and a future.Then you will call upon me,and go pray to me, and I will listen to you, you will seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart, I will be found by you’, says the Lord,’and will bring you back from captivity’..(Jeremiah 29:11-14).

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and His ears are open, unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil (1 Peter 3:12). Friends you must trust in the Lord with all your hearts ,and never, ever rely on your own understanding, or your friends (Proverbs 3:5-6). This is the only way you will prove, what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God (Romans 12:2). Friends if you seek Him, pray, fast, repent daily, stay in righteousness, meditate on His word, cast down every knowledge, and thought that is not of God, or in His word (the Holy Bible), you will know Gods will, and His plans for you.

If for whatever reason, you don’t know God, His gift of His only begotten son Jesus the Christ, then go to the top of this blog, click onto the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever do, in your entire life. I give God, the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to release His message, to the saved, and unsaved, I pray they will be obedient to His will, and ways in Jesus Name, amen.

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.

STOP PEDDLING GODS WORD

It really disturbs me to see how many people out there are peddling, selling, or prostituting God’s word for profit, when salvation is free. God sent, His only begotten Son Jesus, as payment for our sins, years ago. So my question is why are you peddling God’s word for financial gain?

2 Corinthians 2:17 tells us, let’s preach or teach the infallible word of God to save souls, not fill your pockets, to satisfy your own needs. I don’t mind donating to your ministry, but don’t tell me, how much to give, that’s God’s job. Trust me, if you are living in righteousness and you are walking with God like Enoch (Genesis 5:21-24) walked with Him, then God will let us know how much to donate to your ministry. Listen, it’s time to stop coaxing people to give $100 and $200 seed, just send the book, DVD or CD then allow God to manifest, and show Himself mighty. The God, I serve tells us in the Bible that, “My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19). Now, I must have a different Bible from all these folks, because the Jesus we follow tells us, “And whatever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask anything in My name I will do it” ( John 14:13-14). So why are you pressuring the children of God? We are obedient, we throw our tithes, and offerings, and most of us go the extra mile, and give more. So, what is the problem? Put on the belt of truth, and ask yourself, is personal fame and gain more important than God’s word? Is your request for donations more important than saving souls? Has your faith and trust in God deteriorated so low that you resort to selling His word for profit. Be careful, you don’t want to tell God, how many times you preach, and teach in His name, and He reply, “I NEVER KNEW YOU.”

We better start putting on the belt of truth, it’s better to hurt now, than burn later. We can’t love the things of this world, and love God (James 4:4), we can enjoy them, but not love it to a point it consumes and controls us. Let us decrease, so God can increase, and people can get saved. The only one who can save anyone is God, through Christ Jesus His Son. Do what God called you to do, and leave the rest to Him. “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and everything else will be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33).

If you read this, and you don’t know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. It will be the best decision you ever make.

I give God the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to put His message out there. I pray it will allow someone to change their life, and tactics, and allow God to lead, guide, and direct them down the right path, in Jesus Name, amen.

NEED MONEY

How badly do you want it, and what are you willing to do, or prepared to do, to get it? There is nothing wrong with money, having it is not bad. It’s when you crave for it; will kill for it; steal to get it; do anything for it, that’s when it becomes evil, and then a problem.

The love of money, is the root of all evil, yes, it’s biblical (1 Timothy 6:10). When you allow it to dominate your life, then it diverts your attention from the maker, owner, and the giver of life, who is God.

I must let you know that you can’t serve two masters (Matthew 6:24), you will love one more than the other. The ones who have money in abundance, will do everything to keep it, and get more, the ones who don’t have it, will do anything to get it, yet they both forget who really, and truly owns, and has total control of it.

How sad it is that people would rather gain the whole world, and lose their soul (Luke 9:25). People fail to realize that money fails to solve life’s biggest problems, such as death, cure for diseases, lengthen their life, or the big one, give everlasting life.  A person’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things they possess (Luke 12:15). We need to break free from the evil gravitational lures of money, and seek the kingdom of God as our number one priority, and goal, then everything else will be added to you (Matthew 6:33). The answer is simple, seek God then look for the addition of wealth, health, and eternal life. Are you interested? Do you want it?

Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, trust me you will be set for life. Hey! The streets of heaven is made of gold (Revelation 21:21), what else can I say.

WOW!

How awesome is our God.

I GIVE MY HEAVENLY FATHER THE PRAISE, GLORY, THANKS, AND HONOR, FOR USING ME, TO BRING THIS MESSAGE TO YOU. I PRAY IT BLESSED YOU, AS IT DID ME, AND YOU WILL ALLOW HIM TO LEAD, AND GUIDE YOU TO HIS TRUTHS IN JESUS NAME I PRAY, AMEN.
