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!

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...

He Is Risen!

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 Why seek the living among the dead? He is no longer in the grave, He is risen! Hallelujah!!! Jesus triumph over Satan, and handled you and me the victory, like we did it. Are you in Christ Jesus? You're no longer numbered with the dead. You're now alive and separated unto God in Him. Jesus did it just for you, therefore let no condemnation temper with your joy. Jesus is Lord!
