The Author

1 Corinthians 2:9 “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” (KJV)

 

You cannot keep reading what is in the old chapter and expect to progress in the new chapter. The pages of the old chapter must be closed for you to start a new one. You cannot start a new chapter if you keep reading the old one. Read the rest of this entry

Get This

Luke 12:15 “Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”

 

You say, “But I just want my right.” It is your right, but you are being greedy. The husband wants his rights from his wife, be careful of greed. The wife wants her rights from her husband, be careful of greed. Read the rest of this entry

Consistent

Psalm 37:25 “I have been young, I was once inexperienced, and now am old, yet have I not seen the [uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken… Not once have I found a lover of God forsaken by him, or their seed begging bread… nor have any of their children gone hungry.” (AMPC & TPT)

Acts 4:12 “There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.”
