Ephesians 5:15-17 So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do. Distractions, they are those things that take a person's mind away from the original goal, the main purpose and keeps them stagnant at a point, regressing or pushes them towards a different direction. Hebrews 12:13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed. One thing we must never forget is that the Lord did not tell us that the way will be broad and easy to journey, no, He actually said the contrary: Luke 13:24 “Work hard to enter the narrow door to God’s Kingdom, for many will try to enter but will fail. Mark 4:18-19 The seed that fell among the thorns represents others who hear God’s word, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of this life, the lure of wealth, and the desire...

1Thessalonians 5:23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Proverbs 20:17 Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, but afterward his mouth will be filled with gravel. Some gatherings of believers have been accused of not preaching against sin. They say that these ones have not been shouting about hell, oh hell, how hot it is, the pain, the despair and the anguish. My answer most times is, "One should know more about His home, and where He is headed". And for sure that is what Christ the Messiah talked about. However let us talk about sin. Sin is every act of lawlessness. 1John 3:4 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. This is what God told Cain: Genesis 4:7 You will be accepted if you do what is right. But if you refuse to do what is right, then watch out! Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must s...

Psalms 106:1 Praise the LORD! Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. As an episcopal, one of my best hymns was one written by Matthias Claudius in 1782 and given melody by Johann A. P. Schulz in 1800. The first verse and chorus goes thus: We plough the fields, and scatter the good seed on the land; But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand: He sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain, The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain.  All good gifts around us Are sent from heaven above, Then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord For all His love. It is truly the Lord that causes man to prosper. Of course we know that the enemy controls the world system and many have fallen under his deceit, however we never forget that: Psalm 24:1 The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein. It was the man who actually submitted himself to the enemy's dominion when he acted in disobedience. ...

Psalms 42:2 I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? One of the greatest desires of a child is to always be with their parents, however when that child gets to a certain age of demi- adulthood, that feeling of self sufficiency sets in, some even rebel especially if they have been closely guarded from fully expressing themselves. One other reason for the drawing away from parental guidance is the desire to explore. Peer pressure, virtual contacts and even fictions from books, media and hearsay. The same way man full of enthusiasm at the new birth could  begin to withdraw from the first love when other things present themselves. "We are not taken away the moment we are saved for we must live the life we are called to, the life of a believer" . . . ikthewat here  We must remember that: 1 Corinthians 8:6 yet for us there is only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and thr...

Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! This may be difficult when you are too conscious of people's attitude or response. When you look at the problems around, targets unmet, family responsibilities, spiritual inadequacies, disappointments and that which you hoped will be but is yet to happen Take time out and remember 1. You are alive 2. You can eat and drink 3. You have enough strength to worry 4. God still loves you So my friend just smile: because it is WELL. You are better than many, you will still look at your worries and wonder why you even bothered to worry. Rejoice, give God praise. SMILE MY FRIEND, SMILE. Laugh for you already have victory. (Remember that in your time of rejoicing, you should be a comfort to one who is down.) Philippians 4:4 Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! Rejoice. For you are victorious.

Job 21:34 How then can you comfort me with empty words, since falsehood remains in your answers?" Many have allowed themselves to get choked just to please people. They heap a lot of people around themselves feeling that the crowd will bring them comfort, a sense of security or power. In the long run they could choke their breath. (Yet we canNOT do without one another) Breathe! Relationship becomes toxic when a party refuses to give breathing space to the other. This leads to choking. We must remember that everyone is dynamic in themselves and does have their own expression. Why should one hold another in bondage? 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. We must know what type of love we feel or offer, if the other is choked or has no expression then something is wrong. Glory to God the love He has for us is not to choke us instead t...
