What were you thinking? 🙄

“You must be holy because I, the Lord, am holy. I have set you apart from all other people to be my very own.”
Leviticus 20:26 NLT

Many of us, when we ask God for things, we SEEM not to get them. And we moan. And many walk away from the faith. But, it is actually US who aren't seeing, hearing or listening. It is not God! Did you know that God does answer our requests? But when we leave His Presence - His Presence may be in church, or in your house - we go back to our lives. Live sod revelling, partying and drinking, merrily getting drunk and having spirits. And we except to keep what we asked for when we immediately, by our actions, destroy it? What are you thinking 🙄? Let me explain metaphorically. 

When you connect something to a power source like a laptop when it needs charging, unless the laptop is connected will it be able to charge? No! It must be connected to get the power it needs. It is the same with us! When we get the blessings, maintain them and stay connected to 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!

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...
