DECREASE, AND LET GOD INCREASE

It’s so sad when a person can’t realize that, if your actions are going to lead people down the wrong path, then you must decrease so God can increase;John the Baptist did it so that Jesus was glorified,and  all of John’s actions were honorable,nothing to hide or be ashamed about(John 3:30). When you realize that people are talking more about you, than the God you serve, then you have increased and  God is decreasing, now that’s a big problem, and God is definitely not pleased with that;Don’t allow the wrath of God to come down on you ,because of disobedience(Ephesians 5:6),it will get worse before it gets better;Present your bodies to God,Holy and acceptable,that’s your reasonable service(Romans 12:1-2).

When you can’t see that you have crossed the line, and overstepped your boundaries, between the things and people of God then you are going down the wrong path. Because of greed, loss of title, loss of fame and fortune you are willing to sacrifice the souls, and lives of God’s children to sooth your ego and pride, then it’s wrong, and your supporters are blind, because they now turn from following God to following you. They that followeth vain persons is void of understanding(Proverbs 12: 11);Jesus said,’My sheep hears my voice,and I know them,and they follow me'( John 10:27).Listen people,be careful who you are following,the apostle paul,told the corinthian church,to follow him ,as he follow Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1),open your eyes,it’s not time to play games,and not be sure if you are Heaven bound or hell;God wants a glorious church,not having spot,or wrinkle,or any such thing;but it should be Holy and without blemish(Ephesians 5:27).

Listen, we are in the last days,where scoffers,are walking after their own lusts(2 Peter 3:2); God’s people don’t need no unnecessary distractions, to take our eyes off the prize, of the High calling of Jesus Christ(Philippians 3:14). We need to be watching and praying(Mark 14:38, Luke 21:36),instead of focusing on the troubles, and mess of this world,see then that ye walk circumspectly,not as fools but as wise,redeeming the time ,because the days are evil;wherefore be not unwise,but understand  what the will of the Lord is(Ephesians 5:15-17). When you refuse to decrease so God can increase, it shows that you are of the world, and an enemy of God, because you are looking at your losses, position, prestige, and not God. When a person is willing to sacrifice the souls of the people, which should be their primary concern, instead of bruised egos, then that’s a problem;The Bible says,Love not the world,nor its things,if you do, then Gods love is not in you,because in the world is the lust of the flesh,the eyes,and the pride of life(1 John 2:15-16).

 In life there is a limit to how far you can go without God, some people are successful, because someone in their past generation prayed for something, and the blessings materialized on them, because God is faithful and true to His promises, but when you misappropriate His blessings, to serve the devil, the calamity, and punishment is severe. So children of God please stop following man and follow God(Ephesians 5:1), He sent His only begotten Son to save us(John 3:16-17), because man could not do it, so lets read the Bible and seek Godly guidance, He will see you through.

If you don’t know the true and living God, or His son, Jesus Christ(John 3:16-17), then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. I don’t know who this message is for, but to God be the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to write it. It is not bashing, it is truth.

YOUR ACTIONS ,SPEAKS

For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction; But as a child of the most High God, for every action there is a better reaction; for every evil there is good, for every wrong there is right, for every bad person there is a good person, for every unbeliever, there is a believer. As believers, and followers of Jesus Christ, we will always be criticized, scrutinized and ostracized, even insulted, the Bible tell us to be happy about it, because it means the spirit of God and His glory is upon us ( 1 Peter 4:14).

However, if you are under attack, suffering, and being criticized, because you cross the line, because you open the door and let the devil in, then there is nothing to rejoice or be happy about, because your actions did not glorified or magnified God.Whatever,is done in darkness or secret will come to light,it’s always revealed; So if you suffer because of your sinful deeds, for example: Murder, robbery, gossiping, homosexuality,etc, and things that does not depict as a child of God, then our Heavenly Fathers glory,love,and compassion is not seen,and if you wish to be His child,then repentance, and transformation should be your priority,before His only begotten son return. One thing for sure, the Christian will be judged first, of every good and bad things we did (Revelation 20:12; 1 Peter 4:17). Now listen to what Peter said, “If the righteous one is scarcely saved, where will the ungodly, and sinner appear”, ( 1 Peter 4:18), it’s imperative as a Christian to be Holy, because our Heavenly Father is Holy, to be pure, as He is pure, righteous, as  God is righteous. He sent Jesus to show us it’s possible. The Bible, tells us that, If we are suffering according to God’s will, we should commit ourselves sacrificially to our faithful Creator, and continue to do good (1 Peter 4:19); we should also present our bodies as living sacrifices Holy and acceptable unto God, which is our reasonable service…(Romans 12:1-2) Here is the best part, “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in Heaven….”(Matthew 5:11-12), of course it only applies if the accusation is false. So put on the belt of truth, and allow God our great physician to examine you, before it’s too late.

If you are an unbeliever, and need the true, and living God in your life, go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the best day of your life. To God be the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to get His message out to His people.

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.

WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION

It is amazing how the government, can throw words out there and we grasp it, fear it, believe it, and get into panic attack mode. Technology has gotten so advance, that  people are trying to make gadgets to control the world and everyone in it, yet failing to realize, that someone called God, already occupies that position with all power in His hands; Yet, the God who makes the world, with everything, and everyone in it, we do not fear.

Let me inform, and explain this truth and fact to the world today, the only person who has the ultimate weapon of mass destruction is God. What else does God have to do to convince you; In the days of Noah, He destroyed, the whole world, except for Noah, his family, and creatures both birds and animals of every kind, and God’s weapon was not man-made it was water(Genesis 6-9), read it for yourself. Folks, that’s what you call mass destruction, and it was not done by men, with their limited capabilities.

God has been proving Himself mighty and strong all over the globe, His omnipotence is unmatched, and unstoppable; and in these latter days He is demonstrating it to us more and more, it is sad if you don’t comprehend, or see all that’s happening around the world lately, lets not get it twisted, as to who is large, and in charge. But, like in Noah’s days there will be another day of mass destruction, for satan and all his followers, this time it will be by consuming fire and brimstone, known as the lake of fire (Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10), and only those who accept God’s free gift of His only begotten son Jesus Christ will be spared (John 3:16-17; John 14:6).

Listen, you don’t have to believe me, you can wait and see for yourself, but it will be too late; The first thing that will take place is the rapture, then the tribulation period (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18), then the battle of Armageddon, then the lake of fire. Is that where you want to end up? If not, 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 make.

All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go to God the Father of our Lord, and Savior Jesus Christ, for using me to get this message out to His people. I pray it enlightened, informed, exhort, and edified you as it did me, it’s time to get serious we are in the last days ( 2 Timothy 3:1-5).

CONTINUOUS PRAISES

There is not a person in the world, who does not like to be praised or thanked. So why would you think for a second that the God who made the universe, and everything in it, would not want to hear those appreciative words of thank you Lord. Listen, when you complain, and murmur you better know that the devil is having a party, a big celebration because you are miserable; But when you praise God it makes the devil sick, it destroys his pride, thus rendering him useless and defeated. Unless you are so mis-guided, or mis-lead into believing that you did it all, and God didn’t do anything.

I get to a point where I thank God for the things seen and unseen, because, there are things He does that’s obvious, and there are  things He does that we have no clue that, He intervened and prevented from happening to His children. Where we don’t end up as statistics, in the wrong place at the wrong time. There are so many people in the world, who ended up in the cemetery, morgue, and hospital, that was not and is not covered under the protection and shadow of the almighty (Psalms 91:1). That’s why I have to praise, and thank Him every chance I get, praise in advance, for future blessings, praise Him in the morning, noontime, evening – time, night-time, and every time, I get the time(Psalms 119:164). I have to Thank Him for waking me up everyday, He doesn’t have to, but He does it, because He loves me. I have to thank Him, for introducing me to His son Jesus Christ, so that I have access to Him, His privileges, His promises, His goodness, grace, mercies, and everything that’s good and perfect. The beauty about having a personal relationship with God is; We don’t have to wait or depend on earthly people; like a Priest, Bishop, Preacher, or anyone to go to God on our behalf. I go to Him in prayer, for myself, when I want, and how I want. It is so sad, when you see people depending, or waiting to  call their pastor to pray for them, not realizing they have the same access to Him as they do. All  they need to do is clean their act up, and start living according to His standards, and guidelines, presenting their bodies as a living sacrifice, Holy and acceptable unto Him, which is our reasonable service; we cannot be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds, so that we can prove, what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God (Romans 12 :1-2). If you are not living righteous and Holy then you are living for the devil, thus making you an enemy of God, and your prayers will not be answered, regardless of who prayed for you(James 4:2-4).

Praising God my friends is a privilege not an option, He does inhabit the praises of His people (Psalm 22:3), He did it for the Israelites, and we are also His people, Jesus gave us the right, and privilege to be called children of God ( 1 John 3:1; John 1:12). Lets follow Davids example, “His praises shall continually be in my mouth”(Psalms 34:1); just remember when the praises go up, blessings are released, for our benefit (Psalms 33:1). God deserves all glory and praise(Psalms 147:1); why don’t you praise and honor Him today, by accepting Him through His only begotten son Jesus Christ, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, trust me it will be the best praise He ever gets from you. All praise, glory, honor, and thanks goes to God the Father of our Lord, and Savior Jesus Christ for using me to get His message out to his children, may it bless you as it did me.

TRUE HAPPINESS

Most people seek happiness through other people, which simply means, if that person is in a bad mood there goes your happiness. Some it’s the amount of money they have, which simple means no money, no happiness. Now with different people it varies, based upon age, color, and nationality, while for some it’s just the simple things in life, but whatever category you fall under, true happiness is contentment, and contentment is satisfaction, and only one thing can satisfy everyone, that one thing is the love of God.

True Happiness is to be in love with God, because without a shadow of doubt; He is already in love with you. Why? Because He gave His only begotten son Jesus Christ of Nazareth, as a living sacrifice, Holy, and pure as payment for our sins (John 3:16-17, John 14:6). Now the only thing we can do in return, for His gift of His son, is to present our bodies as a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable unto God, which is our reasonable service (Romans 12:1). This my friends will allow you to explore, and experience the depth of true happiness. A kind of happiness that brings joy, peace, contentment, and love that only Jesus can give. He gives you peace, and happiness that the world, or nobody in it can give, which just makes you want to praise, thank, worship, and glorify Him all the time. Now if He inhabits the praises of His people and you praise Him when you are happy or sad, you will experience a joy that only salvation can give, only then my friends will you  find true happiness.

Let me explain something to you, once you seek Him, and acknowledge Him in everything; In return, He gives you the desires of your heart. The desires of your heart makes you praise Him; because once you are happy, He is happy; and like a proud Father He loves to see His children happy. Your happiness is contingent upon the love you have for your Heavenly Father. You love Him so much, seek Him, and put Him first…here comes your desires of a good husband or wife, good job, good house, prosperity blessings overflowing and bubbling over. Don’t you want this kind of happiness? Then you have to tap into the source and supplier of happiness to receive it and then give it or dish it out.

Psalm 92:12 tells us, “The righteous shall flow like a palm tree, he shall grow like a cedar in Labanon”. Don’t you want happiness, and the benefits that comes with it? If so, then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever did. Know God, know happiness; No God, no happiness. All glory, praises, honor, and thanks go to my Heavenly Father for using me to deliver His message to His children.

GREAT CONVERSATION

Your conversation dictates who you are, some people are great conversationalists, where you could listen to them all day, and not get bored. Some people, however, use words in a  conversation that could thrill you, impress you or just plain hurt and destroy you.

Now as a child of God, we shouldn’t let corrupt communications or conversations proceed out of our mouth, only things which are good, and can be used to edify, and minister grace to the hearers (Ephesians 4: 29). When you are in a funk, feeling down, depressed, and frustrated you need words of encouragement, edification, exhortation, and comfort; Don’t tell me I told you so or I warned you, or to inflict pain or hurt on someone else, that’s just temporary satisfaction that does nothing to your hurt or pain, it will just add insult to injury.

Out  of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks, so a good person out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things (Matthew 12:34-35), which makes them a great conversationalist, which most people appreciate, and love.

But the evil person out of the evil treasure of their heart, bringeth forth evil things, which will lead to death, spiritually or physically, sometimes both. It’s so sad when you allow people to influence you to do bad, and not good, it shows how weak-minded and unstable you are. If God wanted us to think alike, He would not have bothered to equip us with a brain.

However, as Christians our minds are renewed, and we are not conformed to this world but transformed ( Romans 12:1-2); and because we are in Christ, we become new creatures, thus eliminating old habits, old ways, old conversations, and everything becomes new (2 Corinthians 5:17). People should see the difference in us, because our former conversations and conduct have changed, we are no longer lead or driven by the corruption that grew out of our deceitful lusts ( Ephesians 4 : 22-24 ).

So we crucify, kill or destroy the fruits of the flesh: Hatred, anger, un-marital sex, lying, stealing, cheating, bitterness, etc. And put on the fruits of the spirit : love, peace, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, etc (Galatians 5:21-22). Would you like to experience this great Christian fellowship, and experience with your Creator, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it’s the experience of a lifetime. All glory, praise, honor, and thanks goes to my Heavenly Father who uses me to get His message to His people, I pray it was a blessing to you, as it was to me.

GULLIBLE OR UNAWARE

This is another example of people who don’t read there Bible, so they accept anything and everything as gospel. It is written, for those of you who never knew, that, No one knows, not even the angels in heaven, have a clue as to when Jesus is coming. (Matthew 25 :13; Luke 21:34). But one thing for sure is that we are living in the latter days, where people are departing from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron ( 1 Timothy 4:1-3).

Little children, it is the last time; and ye have heard that the antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrist, by which we know it is the last time……who is a liar but he that denied that Jesus is the Christ, he is antichrist that denied the Father and the son ( 1 John 2:18-23).   Even him whose coming is after the working of satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivable-ness of unrighteousness in them that perish,  because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved ( 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10). Folks we are living in perilous times, if you think you will get a warning you are wrong,”Therefore be ye also ready; for in such an hour as you think not, the son of man cometh”(Matthew 24:44). But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in night, in which the heavens shall pass  away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also,  and the works that are in it,  shall be burned up  ( 2 Peter 3:10). So now you know the truth, about Jesus coming why not turn your life over to Him ,before it’s too late, just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever did. All glory, praise, honor, and thanks be to God, for using me to deliver His message to His people.

GODS WAY OR MAN

“FOR MY THOUGHTS, ARE NOT YOUR THOUGHTS, NEITHER ARE YOUR WAYS, MY WAYS, SAITH THE LORD. FOR AS THE HEAVENS ARE HIGHER THAN THE EARTH, SO ARE MY WAYS HIGHER THAN YOUR WAYS, AND MY THOUGHTS THAN YOUR THOUGHTS” ( ISAIAH 55:8-9). Be careful who you follow, and who you believe. If you are following God, you can’t go wrong. If you follow man you better be strong, because he or she will lead you to do wrong. Remember Jesus is the Way, Jesus is the Truth, and Jesus is the Life, no one goes to God without going through Him (John 14:6). Do you want to meet Him? Go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions. To God be the glory, praise, and thanks for using me to share His thoughts.

LOVE INSTEAD OF HATE

Love is the only solution to hate, but if you are full of hate, then love cannot be manifested through you. Hatred is like a venomous snake full of poison, ready to pounce on a hopeless, and helpless victim. Hate is of the devil, and its only intention is to steal, kill, and destroy. Hatred is an infectious diseases that, if it goes unattended will totally destroy you and leads to death of some kind or another. Yes, you get temporary satisfaction for your ego, but you destroy your relationship with God and others.

In society we are so quick to hate, and seek revenge, to render an eye for an eye, when God distinctly tells us that vengeance is His, He will repay. This was why they crucified Jesus, His philosophy, and teachings, because He preached love; He told us to love our enemies, bless them who curse us, do good to them that hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use, and persecute you (Matthew 5:44).

Trust me, I know it’s not easy, because it cuts like a knife, it leaves a bitter taste in your mouth, it rips your heart out, and tears you apart. But God tells us to love, Jesus came and proved to us that it is possible, and do-able; look what they did to Him before He went to the cross, on His way to the cross, and while He was on the cross, yet His only response was a prayer, ‘Father forgive them, for they know not what they do’ (Luke 23:34). That’s love that covers a multitude of sins (Proverbs 10:12, 1 Peter 4:8), Jesus’ demonstration of love to us and for us should propel us to love others (John 15:13); The only thing we should owe each other is love; Love worked no ill (Romans 13:8-10 KJV). God’s desire is for us to put on love (Colossians 3:14); Love will never fail, it’s the greatest thing ever (1 Corinthians 13:8). From the old to the new testament, God speaks of love (Leviticus 19:18, Matthew 5:38-45, 1 Peter 3:9), so if it possible let’s love and live at peace with everybody (Romans 12:17-18).

If you don’t know the God of love, go to the salvation page, then follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever do. I give God the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to put His message out there. I pray it blesses you as it did me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
