BEWARE OF OFFENSE


Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
Luke 17:1

The enemy will do everything possible to offend; and frustrate a believer. Most times he will do it through individuals that are closer to his target; the enemy can use one's spouse, siblings, parents etc.
It's important to note that the enemy (Satan) can only work through a heeded bodies. 
Romans 12:1 admonish us to submit our bodies to God: now, if we do not submit to God volitionally, the enemy will creep in and manipulate you into using your body either consciously or unconsciously to offend mostly the believers, others can be victims of such act as well. But the main subject is the believers. Reasons? to frustrate and hinder them in any way possible.
The Holy Bible records it that Jesus Christ said "Woe" to such individuals through whom the offense will come. Believe it, you don't want to be on the 'woe' side life against God.
Verse 2 of the above text says, 
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

The believer need to understand this, in other to enjoy the fullest of the blessing of God, one have to live above offense in this age and time. 
HAPPY NEW MONTH! 

Jesus is Lord!

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...

Choose To Forgive

"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors... For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:" Matt. 6:12;14. The Scripture admonish us to forgive not just debts, offenses, etc. In Isa. 43:25 God had to forgave us for His own sake, meaning each time we have unforgiveness in our heart, it limit the flow of the anointing which is the power of God at work in us. Many think they are perfect, but non is perfect and sinless before God, except by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, which is by grace. 1 John 1:8 "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." it does not matter the personality, not even Peter, James and John could claim righteousness without Jesus Christ and the blood. So we don't have examples to pattern after except Jesus Christ, He is the RIGHTEOUS (1John 2:1). We must be mindful, man will always want to make himself the pattern for others to follow after, like ...
