Invest Invest Invest

“But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Matthew 6:20 
We need to invest in our spiritual walk with God, our faith, our relationship with the lord, because if we don’t we are destined to fall even worse leave the presences of God or leave Christianity as a whole. Many give up on the faith because they stopped praying, stopped going to church, stopped fasting and so and so on.

“Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” Luke 6:38
There’s the saying “We put in what we put out” meaning people are more successful or better at doing things because they give more, they do more, they’re willing to sacrifice more. This relates to our relationship with God, why are there strong, faithful Christians and weak, disobedient Christians? Because the ones who are faithful invest more in their faith, they pray they read their bible they keep away from sin and the worldly pleasures. I'm not saying Christian A is better than Christian B, we are born sinners we’ll make mistakes in this life we are not perfect like God is. I wouldn't want anyone to take this blog out of context and say those who are more decided in the faith are better than everyone else. Because that’s not the case we are all the same. I'm saying just like the word says the fruits will show and let there be a difference between those who serve him and those who don’t. Meaning it’s evident who invest more and takes the word of God serious and those who don’t do the latter.

“The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.” 2 Corinthians 9:6
My pastor has been teaching us that we was born, designed to serve God at first when he said this I was baffled, because some or most don’t believe in God, but as he taught us why I understood it, God made mankind contrary to what historians and scientists say. God made mankind to know Him; everything on this earth is a distraction, such as job, career, hobbies, education and etc. Before we go to our destination, hence why God wanted us to know him he want’s us all to be saved but the reality is only a small minority will be, be a Christian who stands out and invests in their walk, don’t be a Christian who contradicts their faith and warms up the seat in the church. I can’t stress enough INVEST, INVEST, INVEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until next time guys, thanks reading my blog if you have any queries about blogs or want to know more about Christianity.

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch neme...

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus

The Same Energy You Have For Beyonce, Have For Jesus “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ” Matthew 6:33 Disclaimer: What I’m about to talk will be sensitive as talking about spiritual priorities will offend some as it can be a touchy subject; this blog is to educate, help and inspire other Christians to put God first in everything. As someone who didn’t have any spiritual priorities over 3 years ago I have no right to judge or shade anyone, which is not my purpose or aim of this piece. The title must’ve got heads spinning and this is what I intended to do, because like I do, I always point out what wrong goes on in the Christian community and give a solution. We Stan celebrities, and when I mean Stan, if you don’t know the term from the iconic Eminem song, I mean radically idolize celebrities such as Beyonce where her fan base goes to far as insulting people online who don’t like her music, to even take a...
