TRUE MESSENGERS

True messengers of God don’t seek the glory, fame or fortune, because it’s not their story and they can’t save, heal or deliver anyone without Jesus Christ. They are just vessels or messengers, God uses to manifest His presence, His power, and His love for His people. Some preach out of jealousy, some out of rivalry, some out of greed and the monetary benefits that goes with it; remember God is watching.

However, true messengers of God be it apostles, pastors, preachers, teachers or evangelists always preach out of a pure heart, with pure motives and concern for other people’s soul (Philippians 1:15). A true messenger should have a heart and mind like Luke 4:18, which says, “The spirit of the Lord is upon me; because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken – hearted, to preach deliverance to the captive and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, and to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

Jesus commissioned us in Mark 16:15 to ,”Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature,” not some watered down message on prosperity; because prosperity can’t save you. Nor to be entertained by people, show me in the Bible where Jesus was entertaining the crowd, He fed them both physical and spiritual food, Jesus did not compete with anyone. His main purpose and mission was to save souls for the kingdom. Is that what you are doing, it does not matter if you are a pastor, elder, or minister your duty is to save souls for the kingdom, tell people how to get out of darkness, and operate in Gods light.

If you don’t know God or His beloved son Jesus Christ, then you are going to perish forever, John 3 : 16-17 confirms this, so if you want to know God you must go through His son (Jesus Christ). John 14 :6 tells us, that Jesus is the only way, so go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions.

All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go directly to God for inspiring me to write His messages.

CAN MONEY BUY HAPPINESS

Someone asked me if money can buy happiness? My answer, absolutely not, but it is definetly debatable. Why you may ask? Well the poor or destitute believe it can for the main reason that it would enable them to purchase the things they crave as well as do the things only people with money can do.

The affluent, rich and famous tell us a different story and paints a different picture. Keep in mind that if they were so happy there would be no divorces, cheating or scandals for the paparazzi to write about or take pictures of. Also realize that these people buy it all, do it all but interestingly enough they are still unhappy which tells us what? Money does not buy happiness.

Happiness is believed to mean a person who is contented in all aspects of their life like spiritually, physically and emotionally. Now, if you base happiness on affordability then it is only a temporary gratification of your fleshly desires which leads to physical and eternal death. Money will never buy permanent happiness, our happiness was already paid for by Jesus Christ and all you need to do is to accept and believe in Him.

It is written that:

 ” ‘No eye have seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man ( no mind conceived) the things God has prepared for those who love Him’. But God hath revealed them unto us by His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For what man aknoweth the things of a man, save(except) the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God bknoweth no man, cbut the dSpirit of God. (v.12)Now we have received, not the aspirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.”

God has revealed these things to true Christians by His Holy Spirit for the spirit searches all things even the deep things of God….We, the true Christians, have not received the spirit of the world only the Spirit of God which is the Holy Spirit; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God ( 1 Corinthians 2:9-12).

True happiness  guarantees peace of mind, it is written,”He (God) will keep you in perfect peace, if your mind is occupied with Him”(Isaiah 26:3). You can only find true happiness in God.

Will you accept Him today? Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be the best thing you ever did. All glory, praise, honor, and thanks go to God for inspiring me to write this message, and may you find the true peace, joy, love, and happiness that only comes through Jesus Christ His son, Amen.

ABIDE IN HIS LOVE

Love is the most powerful weapon in the world, when we use it appropriately, and bestow it in its proper perspective. Love will always make you do right, because where love is hate cannot manifest its ugly self. True love is contagious, and if you allow it to fester it will spread like a wild-fire out of control, then it will cover a multitude of sins (Proverbs 10:12; 1 Peter 4:8), then  the world will be a better place. Love started with God, was manifested through Jesus(John 3:16), and was given to us.

In John 15:9 Jesus said, “As the father loved me, I also have loved you; abide in my love”. To abide is to stay or remain in His(Jesus) love, you must realize that when you step out of the boundaries of Gods love, that’s when you expose yourself to all manner of hurt and pain. Jesus did not leave it at that, He told us the only way to abide in His love is to keep His commandments, yes it is the same ones that was given to Moses in Exodus 20. No my friends it’s not impossible to do, Jesus came and showed us that it’s do-able and possible way of life.

When Jesus walked on this earth, He kept His Fathers (God) commandments and abide in His(Gods) love ( John 15:10). Now if we abide in Jesus’ love, and keep His commandment to love each other, then His joy will remain in us, and our joy will be full then this world will be a better place;the devil love it when we hate each other,hurt each other,and kill each other,because he gets the glory and your chances of  having everlasting life will be doomed ,because his is doomed;The wages of sin is death;but the gift of God is eternal life (Romans 6:23).

Did you accept Gods gift? Do you know who or what it is ? well John 3:16-17 tells us that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son (Jesus)that whosoever believeth on Him(Jesus),will not perish but have everlasting life,Jesus did not come to condemn us but to save us,put us back in right standing with God;Listen there is no other way,or access to God except through Jesus (John 14:6);you will not escape Gods wrath and judgement when you neglect His love,His gift of His son(Jesus),and the opportunity of salvation( Hebrews 2:3).

Now is the time and here is your chance,go to the top of this blog,click on to the salvation page,then follow the instructions,trust me it will be the best decision you ever make. All glory,praise,honor,and thanks be to God for enabling me to minister to His people,a message of hope,joy,love,and salvation,I pray that God will give the readers of His message spiritual wisdom, knowledge, understanding,and discernment now and forever in Jesus name ,amen.

PREPARATION

Preparation beats elaboration any day. Lawyers always prepare for a case, before they go to court, if they plan to win. Doctors prepare for surgery, before they start operating on the patient. The soldier has to practice before he goes off to war. All occupations require the individual to study and practice as often as possible, in order to be successful at their professions. Everything we do in life we have to be prepared for, the question is, how well are we prepared? How do we prepare? and what are we preparing for?

 As children of God we must be prepared to receive God’s gifts, prepare to submit to God and resist the devil, prepare for Jesus’ return, prepare to fight the good fight of faith, and lay hold on eternal life (1 Timothy 6:12). Preparation is not an overnight thing, and it cannot be done in a day. Preparation starts with  our hearts and minds so we can receive the things of the spirit of God (1 Samuel 7:3; Proverbs 16:1).

However, as Christians we must study to show ourselves approved unto God a workman that needed not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15). As soldiers in the army of the Lord, Ephesians 6:15 (AMP) tells us to shod our feet in preparation to face the enemy with the surefooted stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the good news of the gospel of peace. We must be ready to spread the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ over the whole world(Mark 16:15-16). How beautiful upon the mountain are the feet of him who brings good tidings, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion your God reigns (Isaiah 52:7, Romans 10:15).

 We must let the word of Christ dwell in us richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms,  hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord (Colossians 3:15).Lets get it together saints, 1 Peter 3:15 tells us, “to be ready to give an answer to everyone that asked us for a reason of the hope that is in us“. We are in the last days, Jesus went to prepare a place for us ( John 14:2), are we preparing for Jesus’ return? Are we walking circumspectly, not as fools but as wise people, redeeming the time, because the days are evil (Ephesians 5:15-16). If you don’t know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions. All praises, glory, honor, and thanks go to God for enabling me to minister, His message to His people.

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.

THE BEST INVITATION

Come all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come buy and eat. Come buy wine and milk without money, and without cost; why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight itself in abundance. Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live…Seek the Lord while He may be found; call on Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his ways, and the evil man his thoughts, let him turn to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him, and to our God for he will freely pardon ( Isaiah 55:1-7).

This invitation was offered over two thousand years ago, and it is still good today, and is the best invitation ever offered to mankind. Don’t get it twisted, be misinformed, or misunderstand the invitation, it is better than ever; The Lord cannot get lost, and He will not always be near for the unbeliever or non christian, because when His beloved son Jesus Christ returns for the saints or true Christians the opportunity you have now will not be available to you. In the last days perilous times shall come, just read ( 2 Timothy 3:1-5; Jude 17-18; Revelation 3:14-22).

Listen, after the rapture there will be a tribulation period; “Little children, it is the last time; and as ye have heard  that the antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrist; whereby we know that it is the last time (1 John 2:18); anyone who denies that Jesus is the Christ, also that God is the Father and Jesus the son are liars and of the antichrist (1 John 2:22). So now is the time to turn from sin and turn to God, who will abundantly pardon you; now is not the time to be trying to figure things out, because God’s ways and thoughts are not like ours (Isaiah 55:8-9).

It’s time to stop debating about who wrote the Bible, and that you have been hearing this story for a long time, that’s just the trick of the devil to confuse, blind and bound you. Every book on earth was written by a person, but only one was inspired by God, which is useful for teaching on all subjects, tells us right from wrong, is good for rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, it tells us of all prophecies past, present, and future, it tells us about God’s only begotten son, informs us of all his promises and judgments, and the best of all how to get eternal life, and the only book that is validated by God’s creation, signs, wonders, and man, if you want to debate, reject or disqualify those facts, then you are lost, an antichrist, and you are doomed. All that I stated above is scriptural (2 Timothy 3:16-17; John 3:16-17; Genesis 1;etc.). But the natural man receives 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 2:14).

The inspiration  of the Almighty giveth understanding (Job 32:8). God’s word is powerful and sharper than a two-edge sword…(Hebrew 4:12). Remember, when God’s word is spoken it never returns to Him void, but it always accomplishes what He pleases, and shall prosper in the thing for which He sent it(Isaiah 55:11). How shall we escape if we neglect so great an invitation to salvation; which at first was spoken by the Lord, was confirmed by those who heard it; God also bearing them witness, both with signs, wonders, divers miracles, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His will (Hebrews 2:1-4).

If you are willing to accept this invitation, 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. Glory to God. Now to the King Eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God to Him be the glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to minister to His people, may His grace, love, mercy, and peace be with you now and forever, in Jesus Mighty Name, amen.

GODLY WISDOM

God gives us wisdom; out of His mouth cometh knowledge, and understanding, how we apply it to our life, or use it for His good or our own selfish ambitions is our choice.I would rather be a fool for God,than be wise for the devil; These three God-given attributes(wisdom, knowledge, & understanding) can take you places where the devil can’t, and they can  give you peace that surpasses all understanding, supernatural strength that only comes from God;like David killing goliath. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction (Proverbs 1:7). The wise are known for their understanding, prudence, and discernment; knowledge is easy to him, that understandeth, and he that hath knowledge sparest words.

Understanding is a fountain of life to those who have it. A wise person sets his goals on heavenly gains, because Godly wisdom is from above, and is pure, peaceable, gentle and easy to be entreated; it’s also full of mercy, good fruits, its without partiality and without hypocrisy (James 3:17). However we speak wisdom among them that are perfect; yet not the wisdom of this age…but we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the ages unto our glory ( 1 Corinthians 2:6-7). Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom, and with all thy getting get understanding(Proverbs 4:5-7). Wisdom will  allow you to make good, sound judgment, it will protect and guide you.

People who reject the word of God, reject the wisdom that they would have gotten from the word (Jeremiah 8:9), however they would prefer to pay the  psychologist & behavioral analysis, who do not have God’s word in them, to fill you with the devil’s junk &  medication which makes them worse. The Bible says, as Christians we should be of the same mind one toward another, mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate, be not wise in your own opinion (Romans 12:16). The Holy scriptures is able to make us wise unto salvation (2 Timothy 3:15). We must never forget, that the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men (1 Corinthians 1:25) Godly wisdom tells you God’s thoughts are not like ours, neither are His ways so you don’t do anything without consulting God (Isaiah 55 :8-9). The Bible says, If  anyone lacks wisdom, let him ask God who gives it freely (James 1:5).

I bring all this to your attention to let you know that, when Jesus returns there will be no excuse, and you have made a choice to go to hell, rather than accept God’s gift of His only begotten Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17). But you can change all that. Just 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 praise, glory, honor, and thanks to God, our Eternal King, the invisible and only wise God, who uses me as a vessel to get His message out to His people, may His peace, grace, and mercies be yours now and forever. In Jesus Name, amen.

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.

INSIGHT IN LIFE

If you look at the world, you will be distressed; If you look within, you will be depressed. But if you look to Christ you will be at rest, most people do not understand God’s truth because they are not ready to change, refuse to change, or don’t care about change. God’s word is the truth and it will take you places where no one or no other book can take you.

Are you as a believer ready to take your spirituality to a higher level, to study to show yourself approved, a workman that is not ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth ( 2 Timothy 2:15), God is looking for the best, are you the best? So give Him your best in everything you do or say; do it all to the glory of God ( 1 Corinthians 10:31) Do you want to glorify God? Then accept Him, go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions; If you are a Christian, then you should be presenting your bodies as a living sacrifice Holy and acceptable unto God which is your reasonable service(Romans 12:1), we are in the latter days we better be ready.

Keep Your Faith, Don’t Throw It Away

Keep Your Faith, Don’t Throw It Away(http://tia20.wordpress.com/2011/03/30/keep-your-faith-dont-throw-it-away/).

Patience is needed when we wait for the manifestation of Gods will or what we have asked God for. Even more patience is needed when our results are not immediate. If we allow the enemy to plant seeds of anxiousness or worry in us we will start doubting; and doubt opens the door to fear.These things are of the devil (and not of God) which hinders or takes away the manifestation of the promises of God in our lives.
