WALK IN OBEDIENCE

 



But Jesus called them to him , and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

Mark 10:42-44


Across the political sphere and even in ministry; we see this trend. Leaders with the fear of God are committed to serving the people, going the extra mile to achieve results. Those that are otherwise, rules with rigour and exercise authority over the people.

However, it is rather unfortunate to see that vast majority tend to turn towards those that lord it over them with iron fist. This has happened over and over again, and it still happening; you will see this trend, when you actually observe "people and systems", you will get a glimpse of events.

Vast majority of people like being controlled. But God doesn't want that, God speaking through Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 7:23, 

"Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men." 

He wants people to willingly make their choices in submission to higher authority, not to be controlled. There is a clear difference between the two. But I feel, people just want to blame others for their shortcomings rather than assume responsibility for their action. The easiest way to accomplish this is to relinquish their right to challenge the statues quo.

We have been called unto liberty, but we shouldn't use our liberty to service our fleshly desires at the expense of doing the right thing, but in reverence toward God at all time regardless of the circumstances. 


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...

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...
