YOU ARE TO DO GOOD

-
Proverbs 11:20
The lord detests people with crooked hearts, but he delights in those with integrity.

Through scriptures we see that the Lord was interested in people who were upright in heart. Who did not delight in doing evil or bringing harm to the innocent.

This is why David prophesied:

Psalms 1:6(NLT)
For the lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

The fruit we bear of the Holy Spirit never goes contrary with uprightness, for He is Holy, separated in integrity, blameless, good, perfect without wrong.

If we say we have God's Spirit in us, we reflect this very fruit. For of what spirit controls us, we thus act:

Matthew 7:16-18(NLT)
You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit.
A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.

We must be cautious for the next verse says:

Matthew 7:19(NLT)
So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.

So remember if you have the Holy Spirit, you will always do good.

Why?

Ephesians 5:9
(For the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

and again:

Philippians 1:11
Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Remember what we are up against:

Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].

Yes fallen angels, disobedient spirits who have condemnation already, their desire is that we be like them. They are behind all the evil creation of man today, speaking terrible things into the hearts of men that give them room.

We must not give them room!

We should. . .

2 Corinthians 10:4&5
(For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Yes we cast them down, their thoughts, feeling, emotion and revelation of evil.

Remember we have been given victory already, any contrary to  that, is a lie. Do not give them room.

Give room to the Holy Spirit of the Heavenly Father.

Galatians 5:16
 [This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

We are saved to do good.

We are over-comers. Glory to God.

Love
@the watcher.

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

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

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
