DO YOU CONSIDER OTHERS?

-

Galatians 5:14

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."


We live in a world where people's  disposition keep changing from time to time,  influenced by either internal or external forces.


*That I am happy, doesn't mean everyoneelse is happy;


*That I am strong and healthy, doesn't mean everyoneelse is;


*That I have enough to feed and meet my needs, doesn't mean that others have;


* That I am born again and living for Christ, knowing my eternity is secured, doesn't mean that others are too;


* That I know that I must do good because I am in the light doesn't mean that some others are not in darkness.


Let us take time out to reflect. Considering that it is not only about us here on earth. We live among many and we can affect or influence them positively or negatively. Our call is for positive change.


How does my living affect others, do I care, do I acknowledge others when taking some decisions or am I carefree?


James 2:8

If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well;


Galatians 5:15

But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!


The Holy Spirit will help us act right always. We must listen to Him. One of the best ways to do this is by meditating on scriptures, of course we can only meditate on what we have read. Then we stay in prayer and worship. We are in the time(s) when false prophets abound, we must not be caught in their web, we must know the truth that we may remain free:


John 8:32

And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”


Then we teach others the truth. Yes, many are preaching here and there but how many know the truth, for you can only give what you have. There is no room for idleness in the kingdom, everyone much be about their business, for we all have what to offer.


I see believers arising and showing that nature of love, doing the masters business and in all, considering others.


What is your testimony, talk with God today, He will show you the way?


This day is blessed for us.


He calls us 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

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
