WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, TAKE CORRECTION AND MOVE FORWARD

WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, TAKE CORRECTION AND MOVE FORWARD.

When you make a mistake, move forward.

Do not focus on your mistakes.
Do not dwell in the past.
 Do not stay there.

Rise up and walk away from the past .

Rise up and walk
Rise up and shine.
Rise up and walk into the future with our Lord Jesus Christ.

Remember that the Spirit of God prompts you when you make a mistake so that you take correction.

Deliberately do the right thing.

Think God and do good.

Think good thoughts and do good things.

Let your heart be stayed in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Do not give occasion for the flesh to influence you

HOLINESS

HOLINESS

HOLINESS is not an event in the life of a Christian.
Holiness is the very life the Christian lives.

The Christian is holy in all things he or she does, thinks or says  always.

This is because his holiness is of God that changest not.  Jesus Christ is our righteousness.

When you learn to dwell in the presence of the Lord continually, you are transformed into his likeness. When you learn to pray without ceasing and commune with our Lord Jesus Christ, you take on His nature. Peter walked on the sea so long as his eyes were stayed on Jesus Christ. Do the same and you will get the same result.

The Bible says, dwell in the presence of the Lord continually. Pray without ceasing.

The Lord wants you to be restored to HIM. When you become a part of HIM again, He will restore to you the joy of your salvation.

Salvation brings joy.

When you remember the things of the Lord it brings joy. Make a habit of remembering God and Godliness in all things and at all times and you shall rejoice all day long.

Do good when you have the opportunity. If God gives you another opportunity, do good again.

Cultivate the habit of thinking good thoughts.

Spend quality time with God. Cultivate the mind of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let this mind be in you; which was in Christ Jesus. Be humble. Be obedient to the word of God. Believe in our Lord Jesus Christ.

JOY:

Rejoice in the Lord and again I say rejoice.

From the habit of having a pleasant disposition.

Learn to rejoice al all times.

Be joyful and thankful to God; and God will surprise you and keep you ever joyful and thankful all the days of your life. God will make sure that there is always something to be joyful and thankful about.  

In all circumstances there is something to be thankful to God about.

There is always something to rejoice about.

Ask God to let you know what you should rejoice about and what you should thank Him for .


Remember that Lazarus died and Jesus Christ spent three more days after He was told; that the name of God the Father may be glorified.  Mary cried and Jesus Christ wept; Lazarus rose from the dead and all rejoiced.

Again remember that Jesus Christ died on Good Friday and after three days He rose again from the dead.

W are saved because Jesus Christ paid the price.

Jesus Christ said

My peace I give unto you.
My joy i give unto you.
That your joy may remain.

My love i give to you.

I have loved you with an everlasting love and loving kindness.

This is the Lord and saviour we have in our Lord Jesus Christ who bore our infirmities and  who nailed our sins to the cross and has clothed us with a garment of righteousness that you and I may be saved now and always.

People are in bondage.

People are perishing daily.

Live a life worthy of His calling.
Live a life worthy of emulation.

Believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.

show good example.

May the peace of the Lord be with you. Amen.

THY WORD HAVE I HIDDEN IN MY HEART THAT I MAY NOT SIN AGAINST THEE

The word of God is powerful. Meditate on it day and night. Speak the word of God. Think the word of God. Meditate on it day and night. Obey the word of God. Do the word of God. ie. Do what the word of God says and commands.

God watches over His words and promises to perform it and bring it to pass.


WHEN TEMPTATION COMES

Pray, Praise, Obey.

Let your mind be stayed in Jesus Christ.

Acknowledge the presence of God
Occupy till I come says the Lord.
God is everywhere all the time.

Acknowledge God as your God and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour offered freely for us.

The Spirit of God has been given to as many as believe in our Lord Jesus Christ for our salvation.

We shall overcome by the words of our testimonies. Let us speak the word of God boldly.

The Bible says fear not. Do not be afraid.
The Bible says I am with you even to the end of this world.
 These are the words of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The word of God is sharper than two edged sword. Dividing asunder soul and spirit.

The word of is a Lamp unto my feet.
Thy word instructs the meek and ministers grace to the humble.

We need the sincere word of God to grow.

The letter killeth but the spirit giveth life.


God the Father, God the Son {Jesus Christ} and God the Spirit {The Holy Ghost} are one.

Man is made in the image of God.

Man has a body, a soul and a spirit.

The soul of man lives on in heaven or hell.

The body is matter and stays on earth.

The spirit returns to God.

The spirit drives the body ie. controls the body.

The spirit of Man is subject to the man.

King James Version: John Chapter 1

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.
22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.
24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.
31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE WANT TO PLEASE GOD

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE WANT TO PLEASE GOD?

To please God, we have to do just what God wants.

This could be easy or difficult depending on where you stand.

If you are on the Lord's side, He is already pleased with you so you do not really need any additional effort to do so.

Just as He that is down needs fear no fall,
and He that is low no pride;
and
He that is humble ever shall have God to be his guide

and

have God on his side.

If you are not on the Lord's side, then
how can you please Him? You have it all to do.

When you are on the Lord's side, it is easy to allign your desires with His.

It is easy to use His resources to do His will.

It is easy to do what He says because your desires are the same as His.

You have a lot in common and you have the same objective in view.

Since this is the case, How can one be on the Lord's side?

This is made possible when you believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work at Calvary on the cross where He died so that we may live;
and
 rose again to give us  life everlasting.

When we believe we get Power  from Him to become Children of God.

Children of God have what it takes to please God. (HIM)

Let us believe sincerely and be sincere in our believe. Thank you and God bless you.







John Chapter 15



1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

John Chapter 15: The Vine and the Branches
The Vine and the Branches
John Chapter 15 : 5
15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.

23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
