Life is no joke!

“They equip God’s servants so that they are completely prepared to do good things.”
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭3:17 GWT
We need to be prepared. Prepared for this horrid, horrible life on earth. Killings, killings and more killings. Hatred, hatred and more hatred. God's servants are equipped with the Armour of God to go into a dangerous world. This world is more dangerous than we think! Satan is more on the prowl than he has ever been before! Let's read 1 Peter 5:8,
“Keep your mind clear, and be alert. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion as he looks for someone to devour.”
‭‭He is on the prowl and this is no joke! Life is no game! It's not for drugs, or meeting mates or going to church to sing hymns on a Sunday. No! GAZILLION TIMES NO!!!! It is time to suit up with the armour of God to go into this dangerous world. One question- a lion is prowling around your house. You decide to go out there and tell it off-with just your normal clothes. The lion will take the opportunity and tear you to bits and you won't be there to see it! The lion is the devil, and we, if we go out there as we are, the devil will take the opportunity and swipe us into his kingdom. Peter's book talks about protection from the devil and more in his book. Read it and remember-life is no joke!

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 makes faith work? Learn MORE about faith in this devotional...

"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...
