Proverbs 29:8(NLT) Mockers can get a whole town agitated, but the wise will calm anger. Proverbs 29:8 Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise [men] turn away wrath. When will siege end, when will we have the wise rule that we may have peace and prosperity? It is terrible to have the scornful as rulers in any territory. They prefer to have chaos and are never at rest until they have discord. They do not know how to speak, they speak deceit and lies and never take responsibility. They prefer to blame others for their short falls. They are short sighted only seeking for the gains of today, they hold nothing for the coming generation. They are always indebted. Most times their long term agenda is selfish or from the evil one and brings destruction. However, the wise are more interested in having peace. They are interested in the prosperity and joy of the people. They are visionaries, they see for the next decade and plan for the next generation. We pray for these kinds of leaders ...

Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. The greatest folly of the believer is to think that there is no battle. No, Christ said there is, the apostles confirmed it. THERE IS A BATTLE! The joy is, we have victory. Now victory is only confirmed and established for each one, if we walk in obedience. Yes. This is both legality and divinity. For no one is what they are unless they are tried and found not wanting. Selah. The Lord is not interested in slothful disciples. Remember the word disciples connotes "discipline". This is why the apostle writes to remind us to be fitted with the whole armour. There is no playing around. "It is a serious business". Ephesians 6:12(NLT) For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenl...

Ephesians 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. The trick of the enemy from the beginning has been to lure man to disobey God. THAT HAS NOT CHANGED! Genesis 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed [is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life; Thus when one receives the new birth (is born again), one of the first teachings we receive is to know that there is/are enemies, and their role is to bring us down. We must stand in the victory we have in Christ Jesus. When Jesus was to begin His ministry He had to be tempted and it continued, yet in all He overcame. Matthew 4:10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. We must rem...

Matthew 12:35-37 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. One of the most difficult parts of man's maturity is to control the "tongue", however herein lies salvation and also destruction. What you say tells me what you believe and how matured, intelligent, informed and/or experienced you are. Christ in Matthew 12:36 tells us how important it is to control our tongue that we may not with our mouth bring condemnation to ourselves. James further writes: James 1:26, 3:6 If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that...

Ephesians  3:9 And to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: Isaiah 54:5 For thy Maker [is] thine husband; the LORD of hosts [is] his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. When you read through the prophecies of Isaiah you see a shift from the Israel - Judah monopoly to the revelation of God "of" all the earth. The liberation of the world was imminent, it was routed through the Jews, but it was a new dawn, yes a new covenant. Glory to God! Hebrews 12:18,22-24 You have not come to a physical mountain, to a place of flaming fire, darkness, gloom, and whirlwind, as the Israelites did at Mount Sinai. No, you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to countless thousands of angels in a joyful gathering. You have come to the assembly of God’s firstborn children, wh...

1 Corinthians 1:18  For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. I listened to an interview where an interviewer was moderating a talk between a christian man and another cleric from another religion. They tried to prove the redemption plan of God as illogical and false. One thing you will notice about those who try to do this is that they try to discredit Paul's writings. What they fail to understand is that of all the writings of scriptures, the writings of Paul is still the most clear revelation and interpretation of the earlier writings. Thank God for such a man that could be preserved for such a purpose. Even Peter the first of Christ had to acknowledge him in His writing. What seems foolish to them? The deity of Christ, how could God allow His Son be crucified by mortal man. How can Christ Jesus be God? Yet still be the Heavenly Father above? How can His Spirit be here and yet God is still in heaven? Wi...
