FOLLOWING YOUR PATH

-
Proverbs 4:25
Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

One of the greatest frustration in life is trying to be what you were never anointed to be. From creation we can see that God created man with purpose and commanded him to have dominion over all other things He created on earth. He asked him to fill the earth. When man decided to stick to one area and with one purpose, their language had to be changed that they may disperse and fulfil each ones purpose joining forces with those with like minds.

Thus diversity is not evil. Though the enemy could ploy with it to cause discord, hatred and wars. Selah!

Every man has his path, and it will be unfair to expect everyone to be the same, God does not expect that.

Even in the sharing of the gifts:

1 Corinthians 12:7&11
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

Thus I should not hate another because we are not the same.

However, what we have in common is our unity in God. To obey His commands, live by His Word and be led by His Spirit.

This must be our common denominator.

1Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

We must all:

Proverbs 4:26&27
Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

Psalm 133:1
Behold, how good and how pleasant [it is] for brethren to dwell together in unity!

Our unity is in Christ Jesus.

John 17:21
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

Yes, we are different in nature, call and anointing, yet we are one in Spirit. Glory to God.

So let us:

Luke 9:23
And he said to [them] all, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

We will finish well, God's presence will always be with us.

We are blessed.

Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same
