Good and evil: the power of self destruction

  Many are quick to say God gave us choices, but the truth is they don't understand the nature of the choices that God gave us. God made us, none of us asked to be made, so God in His love gave us a choice. He placed a tree in the garden called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil 🌳 and say dont eat from that tree, on the day you eat from it you will surely die πŸ’€. What choice did He really gave us πŸ€”? God in His love gave us the choice of self destruction 😱. Why ? What do you mean ? Since we didn't asked God to be made, God in His love gave us the choice to live with Him forever or if we dont love Him to choose self destruction,  to die forever. This is the nature of our choices. After Adam and Eve ate from the tree 🍎, the process of death started. But it is a slow process. Sin is self destructive and every time we choose to sin, we destroy in ourselves the capacity to recognize sin which then make it easier for us to commit more sins. Now sin is enjoyable because sin

Brace for impact

 A storm is coming 🌬 ( hurricane Ian) and the governor of Florida, Ron Desantis with other officials are warning the people in its path to flee from the coming storm, to find shelter in a safe place to ride out the storm. Many will heed the warning and flee, but we know that many will ignore the warning and remain. While warnings of a monster hurricane may be overhyped, nevertheless it is the government's job to preach a message of warning so that people may be saved from destruction. Hope those who are in the path of the hurricane take the necessary precautions, brace for impact  and be safe  But friends, I too am working for the governor and my job is to warn you of a coming storm, furious and relentless. I work for the Governor of the universe and as a messenger of the Lord, the message is warn the people to brace for impact of the coming storm of God's wrath. As a flood of sin, iniquity has spread throughout the land, the Lord is going, is currently judging this world. But

The horror of sin 😱

 Sin is truly an evil thing. As sinners we are truly wicked people. Sin destroy everything it touches and sin is really treason against God. Sin is treason against His love, His mercy, His goodness. I am sick and tired of sin. Let's take a closer look at the sinfulness of sin  God blessed America and made the nation great and yet the more rich America became, the more they forget God. As our wealth πŸ’΅ increase, the less time we have for church, the less time we have for God. We forget God because of His blessings 😱 God gave you a beautiful mind for His glory, so that you get to understand Him and appreciate Him. Yet you use your mind to think and meditate on evil things, you have no time for the Word of God, furthermore you use drugs to numb and destroy the mind that God has given you. The horror of sin 😱 God has been good to you by giving you life, health, wealth and yet we use all these things to pursue anything and everything but God. We use our lives, health and wealth to con

Sexual sins has consequences

 Sin promises freedom but deliver bondage⛓. Satan  promises you pleasure 😊 but deliver misery 😫, abject misery, sickness and death. The Bible says the wages of sin is death ☠ and me and you are not wise enough, strong enough to escape the punishment of sin. God will punish sin, definitely sexual sins. Sexual sins are one of the sins God punish most severely ,because our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit. The sexual act represents is a sacred symbol, it represents oneness, the union of a man 🀡🏾 and his wife πŸ‘°πŸ½, the union of christ and the church.  Sex by definition is deeply spiritual πŸ™πŸΎ When someone have sex with a person who is not their spouse, they are desecrating their bodies, they are desecrating God's temple, they are attacking the sacred meaning behind sex and God will judge that person. 😈Satan uses sexual  sins as a way to destroy God's image  in us  Sexual sins were a key part of pagan worship service. Homosexuality, sex with prostitutes were integral

The key to happiness πŸ—πŸ˜Š

 Many people are unhappy. Many are miserable in life. They blame society, they blame their parents, they blame others for their misery,  when the truth is they are miserable because unknown to many of them they are following Satan's principle of life and following Satan's principle will always lead to misery 😫 What is Satan's life principle πŸ€”? His principle of life is to be discontent with where God has you in life. Satan wants you to be ambitious, to seek a higher place for yourself no matter the cost and for you to seek to recreate yourself in your own image.  Lucifer was the highest angel in heaven and yet he became dissatisfied, he wanted what was not given him, he wanted to be equal with God 😱? He was the first being with ambition, he wanted to climb the ladder of success and God cast Him down. So it will be with all who are not content with what God has given them. The key πŸ— to happiness is to be content with whatever God has given you, wherever He has placed you.

Endure to the end πŸ§—πŸΎ‍♂️

 The Christian life is not a sprint πŸƒπŸΎ‍♂️,but a marathon 🚢🏽‍♀️. It's a long journey and it's a journey that requires endurance, perseverance and relentless advancement. For it is a journey from sin to holiness, from Babylon to the New Jerusalem, from earth to heaven. Many comes to Jesus expecting to be delivered from suffering while holding on to sin. Jesus did not come to save us from suffering, but from sin which is the root cause of sufferings. These comes to Jesus expecting to be delivered from problems, but give up on Christ when they see that their problems have only increased. The Bible say all who will live godly will suffer persecution. Deliverance from sin is not done in one day. Forgiveness of sin is done the moment you ask God for forgiveness, but deliverance from the power of sin can take a life time. Imagine being a liar all your life, it may take many agonizing prayers and trials before truth is established in your inward parts. Sinful habits take time to und

Good and evil 🌳. What tree are you eating from 🍎?

 Good and evil, right and wrong, holiness and wickedness are the issues involved in this great cosmic conflict,  in this great war between between between Christ and Satan 😈.  The battle us being fought over our minds and our actions determine on which side we are, whether we are on the side of Christ or on the side of Satan. In the garden of Eden 🌳 , there were two great trees, one called the tree of life and the other the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.  The two trees represent two great principles,  the tree of life represented Christ, obedience to God, love ❤. The tree of the  knowledge of good and evil represents selfishness, self willed. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil represented obedience to Satan 😈😱? So what tree 🌳 are you eating from today ?  We are going to look at two different Bible characters to help us see from which tree we are eating from.  The first one is king David 🀴🏾. God blessed him abundantly,  took him from a shepherd boy to a king. Dav

In the shadow of death ☠

 Life without love is cold ☃️. Cold as an iceberg is the heart ❤ that seeks to protect itself from hurt, wounds and pain. The heart that seek to take but refuses to give. The heart that refuses to forgive wrongs done in the past is ever living in the past unable to see the beauty of the present. I want to be loved but I don't want to be hurt. I want to live but I'm too afraid to go outside. I want to see the light but I'm afraid of what I will see. I want freedom but I'm afraid i may lose control. I want to love ❤ but I'm afraid of getting hurt and so I stay inside, close my heart and think of how beautiful it would be to be loved . My life is like a shadow because I never see the light of love. My life is lonely because I never know what it means to share a life. My life is painful because I hold all my pain within since the door of my heart is always closed πŸšͺ.   Life without love is a prison, a prison of your own making, a prison with you as the guard πŸ’‚πŸΎ‍♀️ To

Guard your thoughts πŸ’‚πŸΎ‍♀️

 Good and evil starts in the mind. Sin starts in the mind. Before a person commit any act, better believe they had it in their mind, they meditate on it, they imagined how to do it. Thoughts lead to actions   Lucifer , the son of the morning who became Satan 😈, first conceived of his rebellion in his heart (mind ). For the scriptures said in Isaiah 14:12-16 , he said I will be like the Most High..He coveted the place of Christ, He desired what belonged to God and those sinful thoughts soon led to open rebellion against God.  The things your allow in your minds will determine your actions πŸ“Ί. Control a person's mind and you control his actions.  Both God and Satan are fighting over your mind. God is fighting to give you a sound mind and Satan 😈 is fighting to give you a corrupt mind, a sinful and rebellious mind like his. Also keep in mind that God, the Angels of God can put thoughts in your minds. Likewise Satan and His evil Angels can put thoughts in your minds. Most of our thou

Loving Christ ❤

 Marriage πŸ€΅πŸΎπŸ‘°πŸ½ is an extremely  sacred symbol , for marriage represents the union of Christ and us, Christ and the church. So how do I know I love Jesus ❤? Is it based on how I feel today ? Is it based on how I felt when I got baptized? No, friends, loving Jesus is not based on how I feel but on a principle.  And what is the principle that will show I love Jesus πŸ€”? I'll let Jesus speak for Himself. In John 15:10, Jesus says if you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, even as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in His love ❤. Love for Jesus is revealed not based on how we feel but on keeping His commandments. It requires a commitment So it goes like this, when you accept Christ,  when you decide to marry Him at the altar of baptism πŸ€΅πŸΎπŸ‘°πŸ½, Jesus vow to love you to the death, to die for you and you vow to obey Him to the death, to crucify self daily for Him. Jesus promises to love you forever and you promise to obey Him forever ❤. I may not feel like

Monkey sees 🐡, monkey do πŸ’

 Man is ignorant, man is born ignorant. We came to this world as ignorant babies 🀱🏾. We had to learn all that we know from others, first from our parents, then from siblings, educators, society, media πŸ“Ίetc.. but in our ignorance we think we know, when the truth is most of us are like dead fishes swimming down in a strong current . Most people were truly wise when they were little children. As little children we knew that we know nothing and we depended on our parents to guide us, but as teenagers we started to think that we knew everything and everyone else knew nothing and so we begin the downward path towards ignorance, towards folly Most people in society think they make their own decisions, but in fact most people in society do not use their minds, do not think outside the box, but simply follow what is popular, simply follow the crowd like a herd of sheep running down a steep hill πŸ‘ to destruction. This thing starts in the teenage years, when you are under serious peer pressur

Your life is a sermon πŸŽ™

There are two great centers of influence in the universe. The Great God, the Creator of me and you, the Creator of all things and Lucifer, the fallen angel who became Satan, the Devil πŸ‘Ώ. Both God and the Devil have preachers promoting their distinctive ways. Me and you are preachers Me and you are like sponges,we absorbs and then release whatever we absorbed into the world 🌍. We are either being influenced by God or the Devil and we all in turn influence other people. We are all preachers and we are all promoting the way of God or Satan's way The modern word now is influencers πŸ“². Guess what, we are all influencers. So what is God's way πŸ€”? God's way is the way of love ❤, self denial and righteousness.  What is Satan's way πŸ˜ˆπŸ€”? It is the way of selfishness. Me first, doing things contrary to God's Word for the sake of self satisfaction. Me and you are influencers and we are influencing others to follow our way. You influence others based on the way you speak, act

Love awakens love ❤

 Are you looking for love ❤😊? Do you want some one to love you as you are ? Do you want to experience true love, love that touches your inner most being πŸ€”? If you are looking for such love, you must first be loving. Love awakens love If you want to be love, you must be active in promoting love . People imitate what they see and people respond similarly to the way they are treated. Treat someone with patience and even if it's hard, they will try to emulate, treat someone with kindness and over time they will respond with some kindness,  love awakens love ❤. The golden rule says treat others the way you want to be treated. I would say the way you treat others is how they will treat you.  Be rude to your neighbor and he will be rude to you. Be nasty to your children and soon they will be nasty to you. People are influenced by our behaviors  The problem we have as humanity is we tell people listen to what I say but dont follow my example, when truth is people will follow our examples

Is there anything too hard for the Lord πŸ€”?

 Talk to me friend, have you ever thought about the question,  is there anything too hard for the Lord πŸ€”? See, the way you view and answer this question will determine whether you will live a victorious life or a life of self pity, misery and defeat πŸ˜”. Your view of God determines your destiny . How big is your God πŸ€”? When God is small, your problems in life will be big, but when God is big, your problems in life will be small πŸ‘ŒπŸΎ. My God is very big, infinitely big, so my problems in life are very, very small. Because the moment a problem arise in my life, it is brought quickly to the Lord.   Is there anything too hard for the Lord πŸ€”? The answer is no. God is the Creator of all things, the most powerful being in existence, the Supreme One, the All wise one and nothing is too hard for the Lord.  Your problems may be hard for you, but they are not hard for the Lord. With a word the Lord can easily remove my problems if He so choose and whatever problem I have, it is because the Lord

The secret πŸ—£πŸ‘‚πŸΎ to power πŸ’ͺ🏾

 Want to be strong πŸ’ͺ🏾 when those around you are weak ? Want to be bold when those around you are cowards πŸ€”? Want to be true when those around you are false πŸ€”? Want to speak truth when you are surrounded by lies πŸ€”? Then friends, you must know the secret to power πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ€—! This is an adulterous and sinful generation which hate the truth and love lies. In order to preach against it, to reveal its wickedness, you need strength, not any type of strength but Divine strength πŸ’ͺ🏾, you need power from God. You need to spend time in the secret place of the Most High daily. You need to spend in the closet of prayer daily. You need to bow down daily to the Eternal to receive strength and power to fight the battles of the Lord πŸ’‚πŸΎ‍♂️, to be valiant for the truth  Our God is a consuming fire πŸ”₯ and after spending time daily with the Lord in prayer you will be on fire πŸ”₯ for His glory, consuming sin, falsehood and wickedness through your examples and influence. You will be bold for the cause of
