BE PATIENCE, ALWAYS GIVE THANKS

-

Ephesians 5:20

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;


We should not allow the things that are still requests to us blind us from thanksgiving. For what God has done for us far outweighs anything that could ever be our request.


Most times we feel, "oh this is so important, so urgent, a necessity". However, He who knows all sees deeper and further than we can.


That is why the scripture say that patience is a virtue for anyone who will follow Christ.


Luke 21:19

In your patience possess ye your souls.


James 1:4

But let patience have [her] perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.


Thus we cannot be led by His Spirit without patience.


Today let us give thanks as we remind ourselves of how good our God is to us. Think, you will see that He has been faithful through the years.


Let this make you treat others with love, stop the hate, jealousy, backbiting and all other forms of witchcraft. If God has been so good to us, we need also to show His love to all.


We don't have to associate with all, but we owe all love. Selah


Romans 15:5-6

May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus.

Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.


Help us Good Lord. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


We are victorious.


Love

CHRIST'S RULE

Isaiah 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. The prophecy on Judah's predicament did not end there, there was the prophecy of the return of the remnant. The end of the days will see a new wave of peace and joyous happiness. It will be characterized with the initial plan of God being fulfilled. Wildness in animals removed, wars will not need to be fought, snakes would no longer be poisonous. Peace would reign. This prophecy displayed salvation in Christ Jesus for the Gentiles.: Isaiah 11:10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. Christ Jesus would also bring about the return of the remnant of the children of Israel from all parts of the earth. It would be like the exit of Israel from the bondage they experienced with Pharaoh in Egypt. No matter how we look ...

GOOD LIKE YOUR FATHER

-
Genesis 1:31 Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good! And evening passed and morning came, marking the sixth day. There is one thing we must have in mind, "it is the desire of our Heavenly Father that we should be like Him". He is good and He expects us to be good, we follow in His good nature. One of the attributes of the Heavenly Father's goodness is in the perfection of His work. What can be said of your works? Listen, the Psalmist sang: Psalms 118:23 This is the Lord’s doing, and it is wonderful to see. Look at those who walked with the Heavenly Father in scriptures, their works were wonderful to behold, is it when they worked in spiritual positions, Joseph and Daniel in interpretation of dreams and giving wise counsel; or the prophets when they delivered God's message or did miracles. Their works were commendable when they were in political positions, Joseph and Daniel are still very good examples, no blemish was found in their work...

OUR GIVING

-
John 12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. What exactly have we sacrificed for Christ? We talk of all His goodness, love and unmerited favour, how have we shown appreciation for the grace He has given us? Do we really know what the Lord has done for us? Psalm 139:17-18 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!  [If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. Psalm 30:12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. People ask, Christ is not physically here with us, how can I pour my precious oil on Him? This is what He said: Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these...
