Men’s View vs God’s View II
And they said to Moses, “You speak to us, and we will listen. But don’t let God speak directly to us, or we will die!’ Ex.20:19
Anyone who lives his life by the mandate of man really never lives in fulfillment. Living according to the opinion of man is operating outside the will of God. The opinion of man is always changing and that is why it is dangerous to base our lives on man’s fleeting views. In today’s scriptural reference, the people of
Men’s View vs God’s View I
‘So God created human beings in His own image… God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it… And I have given every green plant as food’ Gen.1:26-30

Offloading Unresolved Pain II
‘You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!’ Isaiah.26:3.
It is impossible to keep wounds fresh and to keep the pains away. Keeping the wounds fresh will only keep the pain fresh. Many of us think that by keeping the wounds fresh, we are punishing the people who have hurt us. The truth is that you are only punishing yourself. The next step to offloading the baggage of Read the rest of this entry
Offloading Unresolved Pain I
‘But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your sins, too’ Mark 11:25.
Unresolved pain is capable of destroying our relationship with God. The truth is that when you are carrying pain, you are actually carrying in offense the people that caused you that pain. When you refuse to let pain go, you cannot let the people go. It is impossible to be carrying pain and have forgiven the Read the rest of this entry
Pointers II
‘Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest’ Matt.11:28[KJV].
Unresolved pain is so bad that it keeps us from reaching our potential. ‘Then I realized that my heart was bitter, and I was all torn up inside. I was so foolish and ignorant— I must have seemed like a senseless animal to you.’Ps.73:21-22. God has such great plans for you, do not allow the pain of the past rob you of it.

Pointers I
‘Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest’ Matt.11:28[KJV].
Living the life of a victim is staying in the place of defeat. God has so much more in store for us which is why He wants us to learn from every painful experience. It is the wisdom gained from the past pain that will keep you above the future pain. The fact that you have been hurt does not mean you will not be Read the rest of this entry
Walk Tall
‘Take My yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls’ Matt.11:29[KJV].
People are quick to read ‘Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest’ Matt.11:28[KJV]. And fail to take into consideration ‘Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls’ Matt.11:29[KJV]. In other words, when we Read the rest of this entry
Unresolved Pain
‘…I’m a farmer. I began working for a farmer as a boy.’ And if someone asks, ‘Then what about those wounds on your chest? He will say, ‘I was wounded at my friends’ house!’ Zec.13:5-6
One indisputable fact of life is that you are going to get hurt. It is guaranteed as long as you are human. No matter how much we love, protect and prepare a safe environment for those around us [even our children], they will still get hurt. It is just a part of life. As we mature we encounter painful experiences. Read the rest of this entry
