In FAITH not FEAR!

When I am afraid, I put my trust in You. - Psalm 56:3 

This verse may seem small but its message is very powerful. When you are afraid. This could mean when you are in doubt, are anxious and full of fear. When I  afraid, I put my trust in You. Say it! "When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You". Saying scripture and speaking it over your life is an important aspect in the Christian life. If Jesus spoke scripture to Satan in the wilderness, then we can say it to the demon of crisis. You may have seen my post on re-creating your world. If not, check it out now! Saying scripture makes the devil shake-but only if we have chased all anxiety or doubt away! If it is still lurking in the corner it may not work! God wants us to stand firm in FAITH not FEAR! Fear is the opposite of faith and can affect our spiritual life. It may not always be a facial emotion. It can be an inside fear, a question, a doubt. Something that disobeys the Will of God. This can put a boundary in our mind. A boundary that stops us from achieving our goal in life. Sometimes, it is us who create our obstructions in our path with God. The other reason is by our permission. Our words give commands and permissions to do things. Sometimes we give Satan the command to do things. For example you might say, "This job is killing me,". You've given Satan the permission to make your job kill you. Or you might say, "My work is rubbish. Anything I do always goes wrong.". You've given Satan permission to make everything you do go wrong. Sometimes, Satan does things to make us say things. Let's not listen to him and make our words say good things, eh?

STOP HOLDING ONTO FLESH!

“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.” John 14:21 KJV http://bible.com/1/jhn.14.21.kjv We can see from this verse that a true follower of Jesus obeys his commands. But why do we find it difficult to follow Jesus? It’s because we are still holding onto flesh. We don’t want to let go, we think we can be both of God and of the flesh. But for you to work with God, the flesh must be dead. The flesh is your mind, emotions and your will. I repeat, God cannot work with you if the flesh is still alive. We cannot still hold on to the flesh. We are still sitting on the fence, not going in or out. Jesus said: “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:16 KJV http://bible.com/1/rev.3.16.kjv Let’s stop holding onto the flesh!

Put on the armour! The Armour! The Armour! The Armour of God!

' Order the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle! Harness the horses, and mount up you horsemen! Stand forth with your helmets , polish the spears, put on the armour!  - Jeremiah 46: 3-4 This verse talk about a battle. Not a battle of the physical (the seen) but a battle of the spiritual (the unseen). We need to stand up in the faith! We must defend ourselves from the enemy! "Be clear-minded and alert. Your opponent, the devil, is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour." - 1 Peter 5:8. What do we need to do to shield us from the enemy? How do we stop "the roaring lion"  from attacking us? Here's the good news! God has given us an armour! The Armour of God (or AOG for short) in Ephesians 6:14-17 talks about this armour what we should wear, do and understand! " Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readine...

The Godly Godliness

1 Timothy 4:7 -  7  Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales;  rather, train yourself to be godly.  The godliness Paul is talking about here means piety to God, a revered holiness. What do I mean? Well, on what we do we should have a holiness for him. Our clothing, people should be able to say 'this is a real Christian'. Our behaviour should also have a holiness. A fear of God. As the Bible says, the fear of God gives life. This holiness is about the things you do, how you respond to God and to the things of God. Our character influences the way we live and what we do-it's the way people determine who you are, for it is always the inner man the speaks out. They are books and magazines you shouldn't read, things you shouldn't watch and games you shouldn't play. The excuse 'it's Christian' won't work this time! Watch with your children - make sure you are sure of what they watch. Never forget who you are in Christ: His own, o...
