Forsaking the Lord 🤔? I must be insane 🤡

 I must be crazy to forsake the Lord, the source of all goodness, the source of life and yet that's exactly what the majority of us are doing, forsaking the Lord for created things, forsaking the Lord for foolishness 😧

I forsake the Lord when I love the world He has created more than Him. I must be crazy when I love my spouse 🤵🏾👰🏽more than God who gave her to me. I must be crazy to love my child 🤱🏾 more than the Lord who gave him to me.

I forsake the Lord when I care more about my job than Him who has provided me the job. I forsake the Lord when I care about my life more than the Lord of life Himself.  I forsake the Lord when I seek more after my own happiness than His glory 😔

I must be crazy to love money (a thing created by man, created by God) more than the Lord of host. I must be crazy when I love sex more than the God who made sex. I must be crazy when I love pleasure more than God.

I must be crazy to put anything or give anyone more importance in my life than the Creator God. And it is no wonder we are having a mental health epidemic in the land 🤕, the simple truth is we are insane, for we have forsaken the Lord to cherish whoredom, and seek our highest pleasures in created things 😣

So friends, we need a new mind, a mind that think rightly, a mind that put God in His rightful place in our lives. God must be supreme in our lives. Our prayer, Lord help me to forsake all idols and to cleave to you, for you are my hope 🙏🏾

Jeremiah 17:13

O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.

The sanctuary in Heaven

Let them construct a sanctuary for Me, that I may dwell among them. 9 "According to all that I am going to show you, as the pattern of the tabernacle and the pattern of all its furniture. Exodus 25:8,9 God told Moses to build him a sanctuary according to the pattern that he sees. Does that mean God created a blue print for him or is it a pattern of something in heaven? Copy of the True Tabernacle The sanctuary that they built in the wilderness is a copy of the one that is in heaven. Yes there is a sanctuary in heaven. So if there is a sanctuary in heaven , does that mean there is a High Priest also? They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." Hebrews 8:5

True Riches

 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? (Luke 16:11) KJV New International Version So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? Would you want to be rich ? You may so know ,but truth is the majority of humankind would prefer to be rich then poor. And yet only a few people are rich while the rest are in the middle class or poor. Question? Which one would you rather be? 1. A farmer  2. A beggar I know the answer already. All of you would choose to be a farmer. Who in their right mind would want to be a beggar? A farmer provides to society and is a person who has resources; while a beggar, well, just begs and consumes. A farmer works hard to produce and provide, while a beggar waits for resources to be provided to him. One of the reasons rich people are few, is because it requires a lot of efforts to become rich. Supply chains While the beggar is waiti...

When God calls you. The fiery way to God

 Why is my life so hard ? Why are these things happening to me? I pray to God for healing but there's no healing. I pray to God for better finances but no money is forthcoming. I am so tired of these struggles. I am on the verge of given up. I might as live life the way I want to and hope to die soon. Have these thoughts ever come to your mind ? These are thoughts many will encounter as they ascend the mountain of God. For many of us life began good. We had a great time in our youth, we believed in love, we believed that the future was bright, we felt whole as a person. But somewhere along the way harship showed up. An illness, a broken heart, the death of a loved one, broken aspiration sent us into despair and grief. Suddenly life becomes dark and hopeless. But somewhere along the way, we heard the voice of God. We hear someone preached, " come to Jesus and all will be well, come to Jesus and He will give you the desires of your heart." And so we come to Jesus hoping tha...
