When we truely love Jesus, we will want to please Him.

Living in this kingdom of God here on this earth, will bring challenges in our life.

We now are being changed with a new nature, God's very nature. Like a ship when the wind comes it must adjust it's sails, so we must adjust our life to reveal that we are the Kings kids and reveal our royalty in all we do. Speak life!

Jesus has saved us, and daily we are being changed, is that change evident in your life?

We all struggle with the old nature, that sinful nature trying to rear its head from the grave we buried it in.
Stay strong and draw on the Lords strength.
We do not want to grieve the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 4:25-32
Therefore, putting away lying, let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.  "Be angry, and do not sin, do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil.  Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good that he may have something to give to him who has a need.
Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for the necessary edification that it may impart grace to the hearers.
And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.  Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.
And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as Christ forgave you.

Corrupt communication can be speaking unbelief, doubt and fear or speaking as the world speaks. Full of deceit, and half truths.
Our words will reveal what is in our heart. Speak faith and hope and encouragement.

Edification is to build up, not tear down with our mouth. We must realize that our words carry power, and being aware of them, will change our speech, change our speech to no condemnation of others.

We are all living in this world that is full of sin, we must not allow our mouth to set the wrong course.  Speak what is good, and hold onto the things that edify.

It is flesh verses Spirit.  Our new spirit is full of the Holy Spirit, therefore do no grieve Him. We want to do all we can in God's strength to please our Lord.

It is not about what we feel, it is about what we know in God's word. Our feeling are fickle, they will change, God's word is stable, it is settled forever in heaven and in our hearts.
God has written His laws in our hearts, the things we are to live by and produce good fruit in our life.
Make Father God proud of His children, show love, compassion, and mercy to others, just as Jesus showed us in His actions here on earth. Speak words of faith, hope and love.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

The challenges indeed makes us stronger. They mostly are NOT pleasant but in retrospect make us more like Christ if we yield to their lessons.

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
