Remember God's Place


But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
2 Samuel 7:15.

This promise is in response to King David from God, when he made an enquiry about building a house for the Ark of God. He loved God and was desperate to please God in anyway possible. Verse 2 said,
2 Samuel 7:2, 
"That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains."
To King David this wasn't right, and he wants it changed. However, God told him, that his son would, and not him, but he pleased God, that he had it in his heart; and got blessed for that. Even today, David is a household name.
Haggai 1:4 says, 
"Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?" which house? The house of God, the Church!
How comfortable are you when you see certain things out of place or not the way it should be, and do not portrait the right image, as far as God is concerned.
- how do you feel, when the gospel is being perverted?
- how do you feel when a pastor, Evangelist, teacher or even a church building is not properly kept and not representing God's glory?
The list are endless...

Do the things of God move you, to the point, you want to make it better? It requires sacrifice. It's what King David did, it's what Abraham did, and a host of others, that secured their place in eternity, likewise built a name for their descendants in the process. They were compassionate about the things of God.

What sacrifice are you making to build a proper foundation for your lineage to improve upon? Make up the hedge today.
Life does not just consist of eating and drinking, and stockpiling stuff-up. Where you place your priorities today, matters. Nobody will live forever on earth. however, how we live, determines where we go.

Jesus is Lord!

Mark E. Airononi

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

Money truce.

People make reference that "The Bible says money is the root of all  evil...." The Bible didn't say that at all. The Bible says, "For the LOVE of MONEY is the root of all evil" (1Tim.6:10). You could be guilty of that sin and not have a dime. It's not wrong to have money; it's wrong for money to have you. #prosperityreality

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up. O...
