Do you believe that you need other peoples approval?

Why is it that we think that we need other peoples approval?

 That is a trap, a snare, it reveals that we are insecure and not focusing on Jesus, but looking to man for our approval. 

 Peoples approval is subject to change, whereas God's approval is secure, and never changes.

 We only need God's approval and we have that in  Christ Jesus.  

 Be secure in Jesus, it's His approval that counts.

 You do your best and God will take that and make it better than you ever believed that it could be.

 We all are imperfect, being perfected daily in the Lord, little by little we are taking on the character and nature of our Lord.

 1 Peter 5:48
Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

 We are a work in progress, daily changing, moving forward from glory to glory.

 If we are faithful to fill our day with His word and renew our mind, we will have peace that we are pleasing to the Father, because we love an have accepted Jesus, the Father's gift of life to us.

 Proverbs 30:5
Every word of God is pure, He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.

 Beloved, when we know we have God's approval, nothing else matters, we will start with a song in our heart.

 Nothing will take our joy from us,  when we know that we are approved of God.

 Relax and enjoy your journey, yes, we will have bad days, but we will have more good days than bad.

 In Jesus be content with His approval, and don't look to others for approval.  

 It is the Lord's approval that counts in a believer's life.

 Matthew 16:25
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

 Die daily to self and this world and you will sense the approval of the Lord. 

 You already have God's approval because you have accepted Jesus into your life, but now you will sense it in your life, it will free you to just be you in Jesus and leave you with a song of joy in your heart.

 Enjoy your day, walk with the Lord, and be at peace knowing that you are special to God and He loves you and walks with you, you are yoked together.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

 Love in Jesus
Joy

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...

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, ...

GOD'S LOVE LETTER TO HIS CHILDREN. PART 2

Read God's word and see how many times He chose to bless and not curse His people. God knows our every move and cares that we understand there is obedience to His word that will help us. God's word is a light unto our path.  Psalms 119:104-105 Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path. God's word is rest for the weary, when we have not obeyed the word of God, we will become weary, anxious, and fearful, when we choose to do our own thing instead of what God tells us to do. Jesus loves us too much to leave us where He found us.  Praise God that he did find us searching for truth. Thy word is truth and Jesus is that word. So yes, there will be reminders for our spiritual growth that is needed. Will you squirm and try to fight the Holy Spirit? Yes, because the flesh always fights the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and th...
