BE RESOLUTE

 





For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
John 6:38


If you need to, you may; examine yourself and see, can the above statement be true of you or about you? Because in life you will face obstacles and challenges that will press and push you to extreme limit or out of measure to a breaking point [in despair of life, according to Apostle Paul]. These things happens in other to make you change course; but stand thou resolute. 

Jesus said, persecutions will arise for the Word sake. 


In Matthew 26:39, Jesus was praying "... O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt."


While on the cross, Jesus cried out, "... My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" 

Well..., the Father didn't go anywhere, but the heat of the situation(s) make it look that way. 


Enroute the promise land, there are a lot of obstacles; there is nothing easy about it. Sure the Devil makes it difficult for anyone that would dare, and the interesting thing is that God will allowed it, but for a purpose, to build you up to full maturity. (2 Timothy 2:5)


In Psalm 66:12 the scripture says, 

"Thou (God) hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou (God) broughtest us out into a wealthy place."


In other to get to your true wealthy place, there are some hurdles you must scale through. Men will ride over your head, you'd go through fire and water; guess what? God will bring you out as gold tried in fire [furnace of afflictions] meet for the Master's use, and bring you into the wealthy place. 


Jesus came to show us the example. "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross despising the shame,..." Hebrews 12:2.


Do not let modernization mess up your destiny. This life is a passage, not a destination.


God bless you!


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....

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...

WE KNOW

  We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 1 John 3:14 Love is the authentic proof of our salvation. Of course there are different types of love; but I am talking about the Agape love (the God kind of Love). In life you will come across different kind of people even amongst friends and family that will challenge your love walk, tempting you act ugly. But you always find out that there is this strength within that makes you love them all the same. It does not mean you wouldn't be angry. The scripture say, be yea angry and sin not. It's just for a moment, and you'd be right back with your love walk. When you're angry and it's allowed to linger over a period of time, you need to examine yourself, you may have drifted off alittle and if allowed to linger, you will be a long way off-course, and a long way from home (in Christ). Be quick to forgive and love, as it is the proof of life....
