When God Calls Us, PICK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

14  “Do not let your hearts be troubled.  You believe  in God [ a ] ;  believe also in me.   2  My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there  to prepare a place for you?   3  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back  and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.   4  You know the way to the place where I am going.” Jesus the Way to the Father 5  Thomas  said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” 6  Jesus answered,  “I am  the way  and the truth  and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me.   7  If you really know me, you will know [ b ]  my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” 8  Philip  said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.” 9  Jesus answered:  “...

Even God Gives Marks Our Punctuality

“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.   2  Now five of them were wise, and five  were  foolish.   3  Those who  were  foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them,   4  but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.   5  But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. 6  “And at midnight a cry was  heard:  ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; [ a ]  go out to meet him!’   7  Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8  And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us  some  of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’   9  But the wise answered, saying, ‘ No,  lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’   10  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were r...

Have Zeal For God

Image
What does zeal mean, and why do we need it as Christians? Well the dictionary states that zeal means to have passion, devotion and enthusiasm for something. If we as Christians don't have these things in our faith we will fall or even worse leave the presence of God then probably end up hell bound. I've seen it for far too long since I've been in the church many people lack passion for God become lazy and give up on Christianity, no enthusiasm, what's an example of this? When people come church late on purpose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is really a bad habit that, really I hate seeing, I hate being late myself for God because it's a big disrespect for our Lord!!!! I will touch on this in another blog, we don't pray properly to do the things of God i.e. fasting, being active in our church is a burden. The bible says we should be cheerful givers. So when we pray, when we preach and do outreach & when we are in church we should passionate for God. We cannot serve ...

Forgive

"Holding a grudge is like drinking rat poison and expecting the rat to die" When I heard this analogy I thought this is so true, to me holding a grudge is very petty and immature, okay I know some people are wicked and have violated you, but what does it gain to hold a grudge and burn in hell? I'm not here to scare to you but the scripture says if we don'y forgive we'll never be forgiven, so therefore we can't saved! You may say this analogy doesn't make sense but let me break it down, the "rat poison" represents the grudge, the bad feelings you have against someone who offended and you expect them to be hurt or offended by it, where in case you're hurting yourself, & their living their life and as a Christian hating, and disliking your neighbour is wrong! Jesus never had this spirit even when they violated and crucified him so why should we? How can we pray and repent to God for him to forgive us when we hold hatred and have bad ey...
