Gentleness



Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
- Revelation 3:20

God has never try to override peoples WILL, the devil will override your will at every given opportunity, but God will not, rather He will guide us to consciously take positive decisions that will be to our benefits, all the time. Even if we can't see it at the moment it will always results to abundant joy, when we eventually follow God's leading.
 God will caution us not to drift from a certain path He has align us in. If we listen and follow His guidance, everything will be alright, Psalm 25:9 says,
"The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way."

What happens when we decide to ignore His leading and venture into our own ways? He wouldn't force Himself on us, but we will end up hurting ourselves and then still turn and blame Him (God) for not forcing us into His perfect will.
God is not a forcer or a coarser, He guides only the meek; those who will listen when He rebuke them.
But, the proud will never listen when they are rebuked, they want their own ways and it always lead to destruction and afflictions. Proverbs 16:18 says,
"Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."
The best God will do for anyone is knock, knock, knock if you open He will come in, if not, He goes to another.
John 14:23 says,
"Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him."

Only the obedient enjoy the divine presence of God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit).

I pray that from today may you be able to recognize Him knocking, and the grace to obey every instructions that comes from Him be impacted into you today, in Jesus name!

Remain ever blessed.

Jesus is Lord!

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

SPIRITUAL KNOWING

  But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. Acts 13:45 In life you will face some vicious attacks from people, their reasons may seem reasonable to many [natural minds]; but their real intent, concealed. From the above text, observe the real reason the Jews were contradicting what the Apostles had said. When they saw the multitudes, they became envious. But they wouldn't come out to show their real intent; but will work up something else as the main reason.  This is why as a Christian, you can't allow yourself to be limited by the things you see, hear or feel, because they can be deceptive. The Holy Spirit is the revealer of truth, let Him guide you into all truth.  "For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy." Mark 15:10 Go beyond the physical, and sense realm. Go spiritual [there's a spiritual knowing].  Jesus is Lord!  Mark Enah...

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...
