CONSEQUENCES - REWARD!

Psalms 52:1

Why do you boast about your crimes, great warrior? 

Don’t you realize God’s justice continues forever?


One big error of any wise one is to envy the wicked. The destiny of the wicked is already defined - destruction.


Christ asked a pertinent question:


Mark 8:37

Is anything worth more than your soul?


If the soul that sins will die, then the righteous soul will live!


Again I say, do not envy the wicked. For those we look at and say, O these ones don't know the Lord, they are not accountable in their ways yet they seem to prosper. No, stop there, everything is not always what it seems, you do not know what pact they have agreed to, you neither see their heart or are with them when they try to sleep at night. What of their future? 


Don't be deceived, most things we call wealth or prosperity today may just be mirages. Be wise.


Remain in your path of righteousness, don't let anyone deceive you.


Listen, being wise is not trying to take advantage of others, No. Instead your wisdom will make you prosper and cause other good people to rejoice.


The judgment of the wicked is set, the same way, the blessings of the righteous is also set.


Psalms 1:3-6

They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. 

Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.

But not the wicked! 

They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.

They will be condemned at the time of judgment. 

Sinners will have no place among the godly.

For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.


Remember it is yours to choose, you are just one out of many who live on earth now, what makes you special?


Remember Joseph and Daniel, their story would never have been an example to us today if they had allowed the evil around them to swallow them up.


Listen, why should God arise for you, when you do not represent Him, why?


Exodus 23:2a

“You must not follow the crowd in doing wrong. 


Instead as Jesus said:


Matthew 5:16

In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.


If you cause people to praise God, He who owes no man will lift you up.


Glory to God.


We prosper in all good things.


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
