DO YOU FEAR GOD?

-
Psalm 10:16 The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. The origin of sin, is the lack of the fear of God! Yes, even from the garden of Eden. Listen, how dare they discuss God behind His back! Psalm 10:4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek [after God]: God [is] not in all his thoughts. Psalms 10:11 The wicked think, “God isn’t watching us! He has closed his eyes and won’t even see what we do!” In Genesis chapter 3, this is exactly what played out. Almost all who walk in iniquity think the same way. However, what the Messiah taught us was different: John 8:29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. This Paul emphasized: Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Yes it is all about our Heavenly Father, for He gave us...

CONDEMNATION IS FOR THE WICKED

-
Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God. The subject of hell and the punishment of the wicked has been discussed in many circles from three perspectives: * It's existence or non existence * It's intensity and duration * What could lead one to end up there. The first ideology should not be an issue, unless they decide to disbelieve the bible: Mark 9:43-44 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:  Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. James 3:6 And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. 2 Peter 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto j...

DO AWAY WITH PRIDE

-
Psalm 8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. One of the biggest challenges of man is pride. The very thing the bible teaches us brought Satan down. We are called of God to humble ourselves to Him, in that we defeat all our enemies and enjoy His glory. Many who claimed to be called of God allow themselves to become so self conscious that they attempt to take God's place. "beware" Psalm 8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? When we say we must grow as believers, our maturity is not the growth of pride but in faith and in the knowledge of God. However in wrath we must remain babes. Not man of God, but children of God! Selah Matthew 18:3-4 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as...

WATCH AND PRAY

-
Matthew 26:41 Keep watch and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!” Why do we pray? One major reason the Messiah gave was that we do not fall into temptation! Mark 14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly [is] ready, but the flesh [is] weak. Prayer goes beyond just staying at a place mumbling words. Where is your heart? I talked to a brother from a certain denomination some time ago, the word of the Lord came to him "how long will you keep fighting battles I have already won for you, a child cries when they need something, for they still do not know how to speak. However when an adult cries when they need something you rebuke them. We must outgrow certain things if we are believers, else we get to meet our Heavenly Father at the end to find that our files are empty, for we spent the whole time fighting unnecessary battles. When do we fulfill our assignment?" We must understand that if...

A CLEAR DEMARCATION

-
Psalms 5:12 For you bless the godly, O Lord; you surround them with your shield of love. Psalms 5:5 Therefore, the proud may not stand in your presence, for you hate all who do evil. When we read through the book of Psalms we see a clear cut between those who work in righteousness (the godly) and those who choose to walk in iniquity (the ungodly). There has always been this demarcation, for Christ when teaching Nicodemus compared it to the contrast between light and darkness: John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. Furthermore He explained: John 3:20&21 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John still declared: 1John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you...

CHOOSE THE RIGHT PATH

-
Psalm 4:3 But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him. One thing is certain, when God created man He looked at what He created and saw that it was good. People do ask, "where does evil come from?". Firstly we must understand that there are some things we have no answer to, we may only get to understand fully after this life. 1 Corinthians 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. However two sources of evil can be identified: * from the evil one (Satan and other evil forces/spirits) * from the wavering thoughts of fallen man Darkness is the absence of light Therefore, when God is not there, evil most likely reigns Does this mean that man is hopeless? No The power to choose, which is the nature we were created with, gives man the power to decide. When we understand this truth, we would not cower from the intimidation and deceit of the enemy or the world but understand that we have the power to choose our...

GOD DELIVERS US

-
Psalm 3:8 Salvation [belongeth] unto the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people. Selah. Who have you put your trust in? Who do you depend on? For the believer we depend on the Lord God and the truth is: HE NEVER FAILS! We could feel we have so many enemies, that many fight against us, however we shouldn't be overwhelmed for the Lord is able to deliver us, if we put our trust in Him. He has taken care of our highest enemies - Satan and Death. Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 1 Corinthians 15:26 The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death. Yes these are the most dangerous enemies and the Heavenly Father has taken care of them for us, how much more fellow humans, phantom spirits and other enemies, will He not deal with them for us? It is not that they would not gather against us, but the Lord says they would fall because of us. Isaiah  54:15 Behold, they s...
