its easy to love those who love you

It's easy to love those who love you, a great challenge in our Christian walk is to love those who hate us. it is possible to love those who hate us and mistreat us, only through Christ can we Love them with such great love that we bow our knee's and pray for them and go beyond are comfort zone and no matter what don't give up on them don't stop trying to reach them. walking in the spirit and bein g filled with the fruits of the spirit will lead us right. the word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. Matthew 5:44-48) 44  But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45  that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46  For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47...

There is a message in all of God's creation

there is a message in all of God's creation, just look . I was thinking about fall , some would look at a fall as something so terrible but look at the beauty of the fall the colors that cover the tree's and fall to the ground. I was thinking about when I was lost and when I fell coming to the end of myself, and I was reflecting on the beauty that came from the fall, Gods mercy His Grace, His Glor ... y . Ive been thinking today about the seasons spring how everythings springs up again such beauty and summer the harvest of everything that has sprung up. Life is precious God's creation is beautiful and there truly is a message in all of God's creation. I was thinking about how beautiful sky can be and how quickly it can turn dark and how fast a storm can move in, and sometimes with the storms I've seen moving in can look so severe and so threating, and sometime's the storm pours out a heavy rain fall the winds blow strongly and the storm quickly passes sometimes...

inspiring word of encouragement

Be still in your own strength and ability Seek the Lord , and his strength: seek his face evermore. Trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not to your own understanding. For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the Heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord , that shall stand. I wait for the Lord , my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and ...

Follow His Example His steps

John 13:14-16) 14    If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. 16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his Lord; neither he that is sent greater than He that sent Him. 1 Peter 2:21-23) 21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps. 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth. 23 Who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously. 1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked. Matthew 20:25-28) 25 But Jesus called them unto Him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. 26 But it shall not be so among...

Hit hard with urgency

fog over the city visibilty clouded with blindness, people running with panic looking for the city set on a hill, darkness that could be felt, people panic looking for Grace like rain, as in the days of Noah many fail to heed the message. as I write this my heart is breaking, looking through scripture to find one that describe how Im feeling as I see this and begin to write what I see. the scripture I found that sounds about right to describe this feeling Im feeling is Jeremiah 4:19 My bowels, my bowels ! I am pained at my very heart; my heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because you have heard O my soul, the sound of the trumpet the alarm of war.   signs of the end upon us many make a mock at the warnings. they say for years people have predicted the return of Jesus. double minded and unstable they mock blind and know not what they stumble at. foolishly they think they have lots of time, but our life is like a vapour here today gone tomorrow. its time to run...

Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?

Psalms 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Proverbs 20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin? Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. 1 John 1:7-10) 7 But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the Blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the Truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. Psalms 119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to Thy word. Psalms 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the Glory of God Romans 6:23 For the wa...

This is not the prosperity gospel, This is The Life of a True follower of Christ

Philippians 4:11-12 ) 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. Matthew 4:4 But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Luke 12:15 And He said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. 1 Timothy 6:6-12) 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7    For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For...

Responsibility

Mark 16:15 And He said unto them all Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature.     you might ask what if they dont accept the Gospel. here is a Biblical answer to that question.    Ezekiel 3:19 Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way he shall die in his iniquity but you have delivered your soul.   You might say they are not gonna listen any way so whats the point. here is a Biblical answer.   Ezekiel 3:17-18) 17 Son of man I have made you a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at My mouth and give them warning from Me. 18 When I say unto the wicked, you shall surely die ; and you give them not warning , nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way , to save his life ; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity ; but his blood will I require at your hand.   1 Corinthians 9:16 For though I preach the Gospel I have nothing to glory of : for ...

short message

there is a reason Jesus preached Repent and believe the Gospel, He spoke Truth and the Truth that most love to ignore is Jesus said except you repent you shall perish. the message Repent and believe lead to Truth. Unless you repent you will die in your sin. Then comes judgment Then comes condemnation. Then comes the Weeping and gnashing of teeth, for eternity. Jesus was about the Father's business His will, Repent and believe the Gospel be healed and made whole, go and sin no more lest a worst thing come upon you. All sin costs. The wages of sin cost God His Son and Christ His life. It costs believers repentance and unbelievers hell. Sin always costs. many compromising pastors with bloody hands do not discern the Lord's body and they and their congregations eat and drink damnation to themselves when they come to the Lord's Table in a unworthy manner, unconfessed and unrepented sin in their lives. in rememberance of the Body of Jesus broken for us and His Blood shed for...

when one brother sins against another

Matthew 18:15    Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. Leviticus 19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. James 5:19-20) 19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him 20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. Luke 17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. Proverbs 17:10 A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool. 1 John 2:9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. 1 John 2:11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because...

Don't get it Twisted - Take heed how you hear

Galatians 2:19    For I through the Law am dead to the Law, that I might live unto God Galatians 2:21    I do not frustrate the Grace of God: for if righteousness come by the Law, then Christ is dead in vain. Galatians 3:21    Is the Law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a Law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the Law. Galatians 5:4   Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the Law; ye are fallen from Grace. Hebrews 7:11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the Law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? Romans 11:6 And if by Grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise Grace is no more Grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more Grace: otherwise work is no more work. ROMANS ...

sharper than any twoedged sword, Is not My word like as a fire?

Matthew 15:18-20) 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. 20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man. Luke 6:43-45) 43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. 2 CORINTHIANS 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?   ...
