Define Truth

A lie is a lie

If you know someone that thinks it is okay to change the truth for any reason they are very wrong. Why because if they instruct you to tell others that this is what happened and it did not then they bring you into sin, and you will not even be aware of that sin. But let me tell you something it does come back to you. You will find out about these things but not despair because God will restore you. Just hand the persons over to the Lord forgive them. If I was to tell you that someone left the group because his sister did not like the group. When I knew that he was in complete disagreement with me in the way I ran the group, and I told all of my leaders to tell all of you that someone left because of his sister, then I lie and my leaders lie to the rest of the group. I have been ministered to by the Holy Spirit of God that this happened to me. I was a part of a leadership group that was instructed to lie. And LIE IS A LIE. Does it really protect someone? Does it really help you in the end? If you sin, and cause others to stubble then what does God say about those things? Forgiving is easy but is very hard to forget when you trusted in someone that caused you to sin and trust others that cause you to sin. So remember next time someone tells you something as easy as I'm not here when the phone rings, don't lie for them. Bible says to avoid quarrels and stupid arguments, but is does not say that we should do this by ling to others.

A trustworthy saying

The longer I live The more I realize the impact of Attitude on life.
Attitude, to me, is more important Than the past, Than education,
Than money, Than circumstances, Than failures, Than success,
Than what other people Think or say or do. It is more important than
Appearance, Giftedness or skill.
It will make or break An organization,
A school, A Church, a home. The remarkable thing is We have a choice every day Regarding the attitude We will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that People will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do Is play the string we have. And that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it.
And so it is with you

Why would you think that way?

Over and over again I have heard Christians say and show signs that they think that God would want something bad to happen to them.
May God is Holy, wants to bless me with His love, grace & mercy. To heal me when I’m sick, to provide Miracles when I’m broke and cannot pay my bills. My Bible says that His plan is to give me a hope and a future. Does that sound like someone that wants you to be ripped off, broke & poor? Does that sound like someone that would allow someone to tell you that God said for me to help you then that person steal from you and lie to you? NO not my God!
Bible says if you come to the altar of God and remember that you have sinned against a brother or even have any controversies to that brother not to let the sun go down on you before you ask for his forgiveness. Then return to the altar of God.
So if these folks have not asked for your forgiveness even if they think you are wrong and you are not, then they are going against God’s will. Sound like a God that wants you to go through trouble. Jesus warned us against trouble. Not because God will be giving trouble to you, but because He knew mans hearts and that they may start out serving God, but end up serving themselves and getting a new car out of the deal rather than blessing his brother, they bless themselves and walk away from God’s will.
Why should we ask someone for forgiveness? The Bible also warns us that if we cause our brothers to stubble then we sin. This is a very forward warning to believers, yet many chose not to follow these teachings. They just say things like, will he is sick, or he is a liar or he has issues. What does God see?
Long story short, if you are depressed, or poor, or struggling with a drug problem, or having a hard time forgiving someone that has wronged you. Please do not think that will God let this happen to me so He must be punishing me. NO WAY. Jesus does not want these things in your life. The enemy comes to steal kill and destroy, and he is a liar and thief. The devil will steal your Joy, you finance’s, make you addicted, cause you to be unforgiving and us anyone to cause these things to happen to you even Pastors of a Church. Rebuke the enemy for the liar and thief that he is. Walk in the light of God, Command the enemy to leave you alone.
If you want the scripture verse’s for me to prove this to you let me know. However I encourage you to find them and prove me right. Remember is the Holy Spirit is in your life He will confirm these things in your heart.
Prayer,
Lord God I forgive all as you forgive me, Lord please heal the sick, bless the poor, refresh and renew all with your Joy, peace and love that only comes from the throne room of heaven.
Amen.

Prayer & pray

1 Tim 2:1-7 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— 2for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 5For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6who gave himself as a ransom for all men—the testimony given in its proper time. 7And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle—I am telling the truth, I am not lying—and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.

First Of ALL Pray.... & Prayer... Try it, you'll like it....

The World or the Truth

I have been visiting several Church’s lately, it is very interesting to see how other folks worship and see what they believe in. It’s funny we find a Church and then find out what they really believe in and spend a lot of time asking God, what’s going on with these churches today? I just don’t understand if God didn’t say to do it then why are we doing these things? I’m not going to point them out doesn’t matter what matters the most is if you know the scriptures and what is important to God enough to tell when someone is doing something scripturally incorrect. If God said only Men with the name Fred could be the head of the household and could only teach in the church’s and that Women should submit to Fred, but if your husband’s name is anything else then submit to God. Then I’d understand if there wasn’t enough Guys named Fred to teach and a church why women would teach there. But that is not the case with the scriptures. Or if the Bible said if your name is Fred then you should not even speak in church, then walk in a church and they said pastor Fred is teaching today “I’d say what is going on”? So I really and having some fun trying to understand some things.
World or Truth.

I am having so much fun meeting new folks and worshiping with them and I just know God is moving us in the right direction.
