Distractions are Traps - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Title: Distractions are Traps
Scripture: "You will keep him in perfect peace, he whose mind is fixed on You, because he trusts in You." - Isaiah 26:3

Are you easily distracted or distracted in worship or prayer? Instead of coming to church, do you spend time at discos or parties? Do you have another priority than Jesus? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, check your life. This is something I'm saying - not to offend you, but to try and guide in the right way, by the power of the Holy Spirit. You see, distractions are from the pit of Hell, and, he sends them especially when you are in church, listening to the Word or in prayer or worship. A child might start making annoying noises, an accident might happen on the street, hunger, a phone call, a bang might be heard and many other ways to distract you. People believe that once you answer the phone or give in to these distractions you can come back to prayer and worship. But when you come back, you don't continue, you start from the very beginning. Christians should be at HIGH ALERT in the spirit. As his time to be thrown into the Lake of Fire comes closer, Satan is even more cunning, deceptive and on rampage. I mean, knowing that you're going to be sacked soon from your job, won't you start going looking for another job? It's like Satan, trying to grab as many people as possible to burn FOREVER in the Lake of Fire with him. You only get one chance at this, serve Satan or God. Who said serving God was easy? But it's worth it. You can either burn FOREVER or live in peace FOREVER! The most pleasant option would be to live in peace, with God, but many people refuse to go that way and choose to burn. What's your choice?

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...
