DON'T BE PART OF THE CORRUPTED

Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. We certainly live in times when false prophets, false teachers and false leaders have filled many parts of the earth. Many who are not called of God, neither seeking Him but having an agenda of their own and some are agents of the evil one. Another category are those who initially were called of the Lord, but have now abandoned the way and have sought another. Jude 1:11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. They teach that you can be of God and still live in immorality: Jude 1:4 I say this because some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God’s marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such peo...

WE KEEP MOVING

Exodus 14:15 And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: There is nothing wrong in resting, it is actually wisdom to know when to rest, to take time out. However the rest is for you to arise renewed and keep moving forward. As we continue our journey through this world, time and again we face challenges that slow us down. Situations do arise that make us suddenly pause and sometimes it could seem so overwhelming that we feel all would come to an end. However, we are not moved by feeling but by FAITH! For the believer we should understand that we are not on our own, the Lord is with us. Psalm 46:1-3 God [is] our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; [Though] the waters thereof roar [and] be troubled, [though] the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. The children of Isr...

HEALING FOR US

Malachi 4:2 But to you who fear My name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves. The desire of God for us is that we should be in good health. The earth consists of things which could make our natural body weak and fall to sickness. Some ailments were from birth, some developed from activities done after birth, some as a result of bad life style, some as a result of eating the wrong things and recently from the activities of man in improving technologies, wars and also industrialisation. From the beginning of time God has been in the business of healing. The fall of man as recorded in Genesis 3 made man liable to sicknesses and diseases. But God had always shown His power to heal. His mercy was revealed from His children of Israel and all who still came from the outside received their healing, when they stirred up their faith and came to God. An example is that of Naaman the Syrian commander who was healed ...

DON'T GIVE IN

Proverbs 23:31 Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, [when] it moveth itself aright. We who have come to Christ have left the ways of the world and all that is unrighteous to follow the new path Christ has laid for us. Our greatest desire is to always please the Heavenly Father. Just as Jesus, the Son of the Heavenly Father said, we are not taken out of the world but we are kept from evil. That was His prayer for us. Yet we must give accounts, we must face our trials and tribulations and overcome them. John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. Romans 5:3 And not only [so], but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; Knowing this, then why would we as believers tend to...

THE FAITH WALK

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them]. When the liberty Christ brought us into is spoken of, some find it difficult to comprehend. Many still need to be guarded by the law. Why is this? They have not yielded to the Spirit of God. They have refused to grow. 1 Peter 2:1-3 So get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy, and all unkind speech. Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment, now that you have had a taste of the Lord’s kindness. Many received salvation but have not been taught the rudiments of the new life they have received. That is rejecting the former life of sin and embracing the new birth into righteousness. It is not now about "do not touch" , "do not eat", "observe this day or that day", or "reverence this being or that being" or "glo...

GRACE EXPRESSED

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: We were called from rejection into royalty. Empowered to live the type of life God wants us to live. That we would show forth the praises of Him who brought us into His everlasting life. Thus having been brought out of the bondage of the law, which was not actually given to us but to the Jews. We enjoy eternal grace as the bible puts it "the Jews first then the Gentiles". Yes that is why Jesus started His ministry with the Jews. However He continued in Samaria and He said "to the uttermost part of the earth". Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Thus, the gentiles never had the law, so it was easy for the grace to be expressed, it was(and is) more difficult for the Jews cause they had been...

ABIDE IN CHRIST!!!

John 6:28-29 They replied, “We want to perform God’s works, too. What should we do?” Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.” They had been fed miraculously and they rushed down again to see Him who fed them just as Jesus said, that they may be fed again. They even wanted to crown Him king (stomach infrastructure, smiles) John 6:26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. They had heard that the Heavenly Father supplied manna from heaven to them when they were in the wilderness so they said: John 6:14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world. However they did not know the extent of the Messiah's rule, they did not understand that God had left all judgment to Him. They had forgotten the prophecy. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a c...
