Sometimes we forget to thank people who really care for our spiritual health and situation we are in. At work, we are going through rejection and tribulations. At home, we worry about the children if they are OK in school. On the road we worry if some drunk will come along and wreck our car. In the train we fear that some mugger is going to take the money out of our pocket. We worry and worry and never forget to worry. Never putting our worry in God's hands. People make our life so happy because they fast and pray before the Lord. Then, Jesus hears and heals your troubled soul. Do not ever forget to thank them for praying before the Lord. All your needs have been met and everyone is living in peace with you and with everyone...
Identity (1) Wednesday 19th September 2018 'We are not trying to please people but God.' 1 Thessalonians 2:4 NIV We can fall into the trap of people-pleasing. We find ourselves performing, or acting a certain way, to gain people's approval. When we're trapped in the people-pleasing cycle, we end up being controlled by the opinions of others and it can feel like we're on an emotional rollercoaster. That's not how God wants us to live. Paul was free to speak the truth in love: to confront people or to be gentle with them. When someone told Paul they didn't like him, he didn't worry about it because his security and self-worth weren't built on their acceptance. He spoke 'as those approved by God' (1 Thessalonians 2:4 NIV). Paul didn't...
THIS IS NOT A STRICTLY CHRISTIAN ARTICLE but it can help to many to make their marriages better, it can help someone who wants to save their marriage or prevent divorce, or prevent yourself to end up in a wrong marriage. It can help you to pray and ask God to change you for the better concerning the relationship with your partner/mate. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 17 SIGNS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WILL LAST A LIFE TIME Every relationship reaches the point where that person you were convinced you couldn't live without becomes the person you live with. That's when you really find out if you married the right person. By...
Tuesday 18th September 2018 'If you have anything against anyone, forgive him.' Mark 11:25 NKJV No matter how good our relationships with others are, conflicts will happen. And when they do, it's good to be able to manage them well. How do we do that? A good starting point is to learn to exercise self-control, which is what keeps conflicts from escalating in the first place. We also need to learn to manage feelings of hurt, anger and disappointment that fuel conflict. The Bible says: 'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge... but love your neighbour as yourself.' (Leviticus 19:18 NLT). As followers of Jesus, we're called to, 'be kind and loving to each other, and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ' (Ephesians 4:32...
Difficult roads often lead to a beautiful destination. Let God lead your life here on earth. This gift is given by the Lord. Life is precious in the sight of the Lord. Appreciate what God has given you. Our life is an adventure, riding along with Jesus. Like a roller coaster, there are ups and downs. This life is a mystery ready to be opened by everyone who believes and trusts God's word. Life can be a struggle, let us all learn to overcome. Stop and see if this is coming from God. Our existence can become a beauty before the eyes of the Lord. Serve Him, Love Him, Praise Him wherever you are. Be thankful for who you are and what you have. Everything is a gift that comes from heaven. Remember. God has chosen us from the beginning of...
Testing times Monday 17th September 2018 'God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation.' James 1:12 NLT Being a Christian doesn't mean we'll have an easy, comfortable life. In fact, we might find we experience more difficulties and testing times than those who don't believe, either because choosing God's way means we must change in our hearts, or because the enemy makes things difficult for us. Each challenge tests and stretches us in different ways. We might go through something that stretches us spiritually and makes our faith develop. There may be situations that challenge our old ideas with newer ones. When we're tested in a relationship, it's a way for us to grow in patience and love, and lose the selfish part...
Hell was created for the devil and his angels, but after the fall, the unsaved go there because sin cannot enter Heaven. So unless an unsaved person accepts Jesus as his/her substitute for payment of sin, they must go there. But the other reason is, when the books are opened, and the sins throughout their lives revealed, they must pay for it, so it's a sentence. A sentence is usually equated with punishment, and isn't meant to be "pleasant." Now let me introduce you to 3 characters who might NOT feel punished in Hell, or should I say, I wonder how God can override their "personality quirks" and make them aware that they're under judgement. The masochist, the ostrich, and the positive thinker. Now we know a masochist ENJOYS bad...
