Spirit of God

"The Lord is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid" - Isaiah 12:2 NKJV

Some of us plan our lives. There is nothing wrong with that apart from - will you be alive then? To be able to see your plan being accomplished?

No, I didn't think of that. 

 Proverbs 27:1 says "Do not plan out tomorrow - for you know not what it brings". Most of the time, we want to be organised and planned out. That's fine when it comes to work, business etc. But it's not fine when we are in God's presence. We are supposed to let God be in charge when we are in His presence. Jesus said that when we should pray, we shouldn't let anyone see us. We shouldn't let anyone distract us either. Because Satan knows that when you are in God's presence, your fire kindles all the more. And he knows that when you meditate on the Word, the fire kindles more. So, he uses distractions. Here are a few:

  •  Looking out of the window 
  • Crying, shouting, arguing from another room 
  • Ringing phones
  • Anything, really
When you are in God's presence, those things don't mean anything anymore. Hallelujah! You may of course hear them, but you are so...'wrapped up ' should I say in the presence of God. The presence of God lives in us. How? Because God lives in us. Take a look: 
"I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you" - John 14:18 
Jesus said, HE WILL COME TO US. HOW? THROUGH THE HOLY GHOST!!!!! 
The Holy Ghost, Jesus and God are all God, and do not 'make up' God as some Pastors may preach. God's presence is more valuable than we think. When we are in the presence of God, there's no room for nonsense. God's presence follows those who he really dwells in, and their behaviour reflects it too. They now carry the spirit of God wherever they go! We clearly do not deserve to be in God's presence - after all we've all sinned (Rom 3:23). We should be grateful, and always be in fellowship with God

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!

Why remain pure? Learn about pureness in this amazing devotional....

Key = Blue = Scripture  Red = Answers to questions  Green = Verses to read in your spare time. 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...

What is the wisdom of the world to God? FOOLISHNESS!

“For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.” 1 Corinthians 3:19 KJV http://bible.com/1/1co.3.19.kjv You see, for new born believers, it takes a while for the fact that they cannot be loved by or be part of the world. Unfortunately, this is usually found out after devastating consequences. In this chapter of 1 Corinthians, verse 19, Paul talks about the Wisdom of God being foolishness to the world. This portrays the relationship between a Christian and the world. THEIR SHOULD'NT BE ONE. No-one can sit on the fence. For those of you trying, you still will belong to the darkness. Until you take a step of faith to reach the light, you and your darkness remain. After becoming a Christian, you are made holy. But maintenance and discipline are needed to keep the holiness and remain pure. People begin to defile this holiness by continuing and re-doing their past life! Don't follow them! Remain pure!  ...
