SHOULD I, OR SHOULD I NOT?

Psalm 130:5

I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.


I have come to understand that before we do anything, there is that brief moment when we have to decide.


It could be in seconds or we may have longer moments to think about it, no matter the length, every action is premeditated.


Sometimes we do not allow that brief moment, (I am guilty of this) this may cause us to err, and if we are God's we feel so bad about it.


Just like in the game of chess, no matter how good you are, if you do not take out time to think, you definitely make a blunder, this why bullets, blitz and rapid are different from a full game.


Therefore we must decide, to take the right actions. We must know how to use those brief moments, and of course if there is enough time, use it, pray and think about it before you act.


Here the Holy Spirit helps us, if only we are patient enough to allow Him to have His way. We need to feed ourselves with the word more than all other things that want to occupy our heart or mind.


Psalms 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You.


It is what every believer practices and develops, so that we do not err.


James 1:16
Do not err, my beloved brethren.


We need to be ready, starting everyday with the Lord, then continuing therein in Him.


I see patience working in us, wisdom and excellence displayed in all we do.


We will not fall short. We will succeed.


We would take the right actions.


Help us Good Lord.


PRAYER
Loving Father, help me to be patient enough to hear what you are saying. I will not err Lord because You will help me, lead me and guide me. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love
@the watcher.

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 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...
