Live for Christ

 When you ask someone, what do you want to be in life ? Many will answer I want to be successful, I want to make money, I want to be a doctor, a nurse, an athlete, a politician etc..But rarely do we find someone say I want to live for Christ and be whatever He calls me to be. And rarely do we find people saying that, because from youth up we have been taught to live for self and not for the glory of God.  The glory of God is the last thing in the minds of majority of people, if its there at all.

Living for self will result in fustration and misery.

 But living for the glory of God brings true fulfillment and increasing joy.

You are too small to bring satisfaction and fulfillment to yourself .

We are too ignorant to know what will truly fulfill us .

We didn't make ourselves and so we have no idea of what will truly satisfy us. Which is why the things we thought would satisfy usually leave us empty and miserable. 

You are beautiful now and everyone comment on your pictures,but soon you will grow old and wrinkle and no one want to see your pictures.
People used to want to see the singer Madonna's revealing pictures back in the days, but now people make fun of her and say you are too old to be dressing like this.  The day is coming when your beauty you like to flaunt will fade away and what will fulfill you then ?
Live for Christ and you shall have everlasting beauty for His glory .

You think you are the man because you have a good job, but all it takes is one sickness or a firing and you lose all. You think you are the man because you are in good physical  shape, but one sickness 🤒 and you can find yourself withering away.

Live for Christ, in him you are truly the man, the new man created in Christ Jesus . The Lord will keep you in perfect  peace, will always provide for you and will make you strong in spirit .

If parents taught children to be for God glory then they would grow up with that as an option. It starts at home in the formative years. New generation of parents need to start teaching their youngsters to make Christ glory an occupation. Blessings

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...
