A New-You...

Today, we have two verses! I just had to fit them in!

"The Lord says: 'What I think, is not what you think, neither what you do is what I do. Like the sky is higher than the Earth, so are My doings higher than yours, and my thoughts higher than yours'" - Isaiah 55:8-9
"How is it that you have been afraid, and lied and not remembered me? That you do not follow me? I will declare your filthiness and your works and they shall not profit you" - Isaiah 57:11-12



God knows everything we do. Even if we tell the whitest, nearly truest, most quite true lie, He still knows we have lied and have had a great big tick on Sin's list for lying. Cause once you start you can't stop! You may think, what if I am sorry? Pray again! Live back to your old self! Not your old self! I mean, the new-you! The Christian! Once we accept Jesus, every stain of Sin is erased out of our lives! "...for the former have gone away, alas! I have made everything new!" (Revelation 21:4) So be that new-you! Your a child of God! What will it be like? Have a peep at Revelation 22:1-21! God can make everything new!

Isaiah 55:8-9
Isaiah 57:11-12

"That according to the riches of His glory, He may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." - Ephesians 3:16-17 KJV Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit more on faith. When Paul writes 'dwell in your hearts through faith' what does it mean? This means that we have to show our confidence and belief in Christ, before He comes into our hearts. He knows when we want to trick Him or not. So don't bother being cunning! Because wisdom comes from the Lord! So, if our human efforts cannot make faith to work, what can? (Zechariah 4:6) Our confidence and belief in Jesus! We just have to say, "Jesus, take care of this for me. I don't want to any more. I can't do it by my own power." Acknowledging that you can't do it alone, gives you the first step forward. Then comes the hard bit. When I mean hard, I mean HARD. Because most people people fall away aft...

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life. God is our Director leading us-even of the path LOOKS right, it doesn't mean it IS right. God knows best so we shouldn't be no-it-alls. Humble your self!

Black = Normal post Bold = Question  "Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." - Jeremiah 33:3.  Many people either don't believe in God, or become atheists, partly because of this question: Why doesn't God answer some of my prayers?  Answer: This is because of your heart. Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...
