Trying to make the "CHANGE"?

Trying to make the "CHANGE"?

If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Never be discouraged about yourself.

You may have tried all your life long to rid yourself of your weaknesses, your obsessions, jealousies, sins, inferiority, without success.

Your failure is probably that you have been trying to make yourself over.

This is a long tedious, and essentially impossible project to do on your own.

but it can be done in no time at all by Christ.

All you need to do is to say to Him simply, "Lord, I do not want to be this way anymore," and mean it!

He will do for you what you cannot do for yourself- effects will be a lasting change in you.

Ask the Lord today to change you.

He's waiting on "YOU"!

You think you've lost friends?

You think you've lost friends?

This is for those who think you have lost friends since you've chosen Christ to follow.. You haven't, they left because you now have nothing in common with them, plus you know that darkness flees when the light is shinned, so they were never your friend anyway, they were only helping you to destruction..( And this includes your family members too, because there is no blood that is thicker than that of Jesus Christ)..

You just got to know who & when to let go.. Because one thing that I've learned is that if the "worldly & ungodly" are too close & attached to you( indulging in actual relationships such as buddy-buddies,girl or boy friends,best-friends and etc...), then maybe your not who you proclaim to be in Christ,because their should be a light coming from you to fend off darkness.. ( Ministering to them is something totally different, this is who you should be unto them that are in darkness )

So now that they are gone, you now have a clearer view of who your real friends are! So don't be discouraged,but be encouraged! It was just God removing what needed to be moved because you wouldn't do it ... Your never alone!

DRIVING IN THE DARK

DRIVING IN THE DARK

God usually doesn't show us where He's taking us. He just asks us to TRUST HIM!

Its like driving a car at night.

God's Word is like "headlights" in dark times.

Its full of promises WE NEED to keep us from driving our lives into the ditch of bitterness & despair and total wreckage!

His Word promises that He WILL NEVER LEAVE US' NOR FORSAKE US.(Heb.13:5)

His Word ASSURES US that He knows the plans He has for us, plans for wholeness & not for evil, to give us a future and hope assured! (Jer. 29:11)

And He tells us our trials are there to make us BETTER, NOT BITTER. (James 12:4)

So the next time you feel as if you are driving in the dark, remember to trust your headlights.

God's Word WILL LIGHT YOUR WAY!

You won't stumble in the dark, if you walk in the light of God's Word!

AMEN !

WE ALL FALL SHORT

WE ALL FALL SHORT

THANK GOD THAT ( JESUS CHRIST ) STEPPED UP FOR THOSE OF "US" THAT WEREN'T BORN SAVED OUT OF THE WOMBS OF OUR MOTHERS.... YOU KNOW "SINNERS SAVED BY GRACE"!

EVEN THOUGH A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST ACT LIKE THEY WERE BORN THAT WAY... YOU KNOW (SELF RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE) WHO WHEN YOU MEET THEM, THE FIRST THING COMING OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS IS THEM TALKING ABOUT WHAT THEY DON'T DO.. "BEWARE OF THEM", BECAUSE THAT'S A DEFENSE MECHANISM TO COVER UP WHAT ALL THEY DO, "DO"

Y'ALL KNOW THE TYPE OF PEOPLE I'M TALKING ABOUT..LOL...

BUT SERIOUSLY, NEVER FORGET WHERE YOU CAME FROM, JUST BECAUSE YOU CAME FROM UNDER IT OR OVERCAME IT!

EVERYBODY ISN'T THERE YET!

SO DON'T BE SO QUICK TO JUDGE SO CRITICALLY, IF YOU AIN'T WILLING TO SHOW A LITTLE "LOVE" & "COMPASSION" AND BE WILLINGLY READY TO "RESTORE THEM"!

Note: IF WE PRAYED FOR PEOPLE AS MUCH AS WE "TALKED" ABOUT THEM, IT WOULD BE A LOT MORE PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT TRACK ;-)

Amen :-)

You better thank Him!

You better thank Him!

You better thank God with everything you got!

No matter what language you speak, you better thank Him!

If your down to your last dime, you better thank Him!

If your rent is due, & you don't know where the money is coming from, you better thank Him!

If your children are acting up, you better thank Him!

If your husband or your wife dont wanna praise God, you better thank Him!

If you just lost your job, you better thank Him!

If your family has turned against you, you better thank Him!

If your body is riddled with diseases & pain, you better thank Him!

With the same energy & tongue that you speak out & complain about everything, you need to put that energy into thanking God, not just for all He's done, but you need to thank Him for who He is, because He is God all by Himself & if He never did another thing for you, He's done more than enough!

Thank you Lord, thank you God, glory Hallelujah!

Psalm 150:6 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.

He's worthy to be praised!

Controlled by a fear?

Controlled by a fear?

The thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me (Job 3:25).

This thought conditioner states a very serious warning. If over a long period of time, a person habitually fears something, there is a tendency for that fear to become a reality.

For example, if you fear that your going to fail, and you constantly entertain thoughts of failure, you will create a mental condition that is bound towards failure. Creative, positive, success factors are repelled by your mind because your mind is filled with defeat attitudes.

On the contrary, if you hold the faith thought, the positive thought, you will create about yourself an atmosphere bound towards success, health and well-being.

Warning: Spiritual Advisers show that statistics prove that fear is the #1 killer of faith.

So make sure that you double up on your dosage of the (Word of God) so that you can repell the disease "fear" from your spirit..

Live in FAITH !!!!!!!

God bless you :-)

Unselfish Hearts

Unselfish Hearts

"And if anyone gives a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward." Matt.10:42

How much we love God can be measured by how well we treat others.

Jesus' example of giving a cup of cold water to a thirsty child is a good model of unselfish service. A child can't or won't return the favor.

God notices every good deed we do or don't do as if He were the one receiving it.

Is there something unselfish you can do for someone else today?

God will show you His children who need an encounter from an unselfish heart.

Although no one else may see you, God will notice.

I pray we're sensitive to His voice to see it when He shows us.

Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart. Psalm 32:11

Be blessed!

U love truth, really?

U love truth, really?

So u say u keeps it 100?

So u say u love the truth?

Then why is it that when the truth about U hit the surface, then u become angry and bitter?

Why turn on the person that's keeping it real with u?

Why treat them like the enemy, when actually their being a FRIEND BY TELLING U THE TRUTH?

U see a friend will tell u the truth to keep u from HELL, but those that say nothing can care less if u go!

As children of God we should subject ourselves to hearing the TRUTH whether it hurts or not.

Because i rather be a little hurt now then forever burning in hell's fire forever.

Even tho we serve a loving and forgiving God, we also serve a vengeful God who's wrath is against the "children of disobedience"(Eph.5:6).

Jesus Christ told the truth even tho the people grew offended(John 8:34-47).

So learn how to take rebuke and grow in spiritual maturity from it, instead of growing angry and bitter(Pro.27:5-6).

A real friend will help till it hurts, but the hurt will dissolve when u see your really being helped.

AMEN !
