Differentiator
Matt.7:24 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock.”
It is the storms and not wealth that is the differentiator in life. The storm is what reveals you to you. And that is why sometimes, God will allow us to experience storms so that we can identify the areas in our lives that are built on sand and not on the rock. Read the rest of this entry
Truth Kernel
1Pet.1:23 “For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God” [with emphasis]
We are children of God. The truth of God is in our DNA. It is the seed of God in us. An illustration is, a man has intercourse with his wife and unknown to them, the woman conceives immediately.
Restart
First Love – New Love!
God’s Order
Matt.5: 27 “You have heard the commandment that says, ‘You must not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart” [with emphasis].
The world is putting a lot of people under pressure to ascertain “compatibility” before marriage. And the test for compatibility is the joining of bodies outside of marriage.
Keep Your Word
Luke 16:10 “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities.”
The battle with purity is actually a battle with decision-making. You need to be able to keep your words in the little promises such as – I will see you tomorrow by ten o’clock, I will bring groceries home, I will take out the trash and it will be done on time. Read the rest of this entry
Configuration
Eze.11:20 “So they will obey my decrees and regulations. Then they will truly be my people, and I will be their God.”
Yesterday, we highlighted three categories of people. The first category is people that have suffered abuse from people in authority over their lives.
Find Rest
Ex.20: 11 “For in six days the Lord made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and everything in them; but on the seventh day he rested.”
Find time to rest! This is not a suggestion, it is an instruction. Rest is not the exclusive preserve for a privileged few. If you are a student, resting would mean taking a break from studying and just playing.
Time Off
Ex.34:21 (VOICE) “ You are to work for six days; but when the seventh day arrives, you are to observe the Sabbath and rest. Even when it is the time to plough and harvest, you must still rest on the seventh day.”
The story most times is, a lot of people feel burdened with what they have to do tomorrow. The burden for tomorrow’s work is often more than the pleasure we find in what God has already enabled us to do today. Just calm down.
Break Time!
PS.121:3 (KJV) “…He that keepeth thee will not slumber. 4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel neither slumber nor sleep.”
Why would a God that never gets tired take a break? God is limitless. God could actually have completed all of creation’s work in a day but He did not. God is showing us that we do not have to do everything in one day.
