WE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO ENJOY THE SIMPLE THINGS IN OUR LIFE.

SINCE MOST OF US ARE SHUT IN FOR A SEASON, WE CAN APPRECIATE WHATEVER WE SEE THAT IS AROUND US. 

 REALLY APPRECIATE GOD'S CREATION.

 GENESIS 1:20-21
THEN GOD SAID, "LET THE WATERS ABOUND WITH AN ABUNDANCE OF LIVING CREATURES, AND LET THE BIRDS FLY ABOVE THE EARTH ACROSS THE FACE OF THE FIRMAMENT OF THE HEAVENS.

 SO GOD CREATED GREAT SEA CREATURES AND EVERY LIVING THING THAT MOVES, WITH WHICH THE WATERS ABOUNDED, OF LIVING CREATURES, ACCORDING TO THEIR KIND, EVERY WINGED BIRD ACCORDING TO ITS KIND, AND GOD SAW THAT IT WAS GOOD.


I WATCHED THE LITTLE BIRDS OUT OF MY WINDOW, THEY ARE SUCH BEAUTIFUL CREATURES. HOW THEY INTRICATELY MAKE A NEST FOR THEIR YOUNG.  

 I WATCHED HOW THE MAMA BIRD TOOK HER BABIES OUT OF THE TREE AND SHOWED THEM THE DISH I PUT OUT FOR THEM WITH WATER.

 HOW SHE WARNED THEM WHEN I LET THE DOGS OUT, SHE TOOK THEM BACK IN THE TREE. 

 I WATCHED AND WHEN I BROUGHT THE DOGS IN, SHE BROUGHT THEM AGAIN FOR A DRINK AND BATH. 
(WATCHING THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE)

I LOVE WATCHING THE BEAUTIFUL FLUFFY CLOUDS, THAT IF YOU WATCH LONG ENOUGH YOU CAN DISCERN DIFFERENT SHAPES, PICTURES OF THINGS AND CREATURES.

 OUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS A GREAT ARTIST.
THAT'S A GOOD TIME TO TALK TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER.  
THANK HIM AND PRAISE HIM FOR THE BEAUTIFUL EARTH AND CREATURES HE HAS GIVEN TO US.

 I WATCHED A FERAL CAT LEAVE HIS MEAL SO THAT A SKINNY YOUNG CAT COULD EAT. GOD'S CREATURES ARE AMAZING.

 NEVER COMPARE THE WORLDS TECHNOLOGY TO GOD'S CREATIVITY. 

 MAN WOULD'NT HAVE THAT TECHNOLOGY, IF GOD HAD NOT PROGRAMMED THAT ABILITY IN THEIR GENES.

 LEARN TO LOOK AROUND YOU AND APPRECIATE WHAT HAS BEEN GIVEN, AND  ITS ALL FOR OUR PLEASURE.
WHAT A GREAT LOVING FATHER WE HAVE.

 WE DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE THE BEST OF EVERYTHING, ONLY THE SIMPLE THINGS OF LIFE WILL BRING GREAT JOY AND PLEASURE.

 THOSE THAT HAVE TO HAVE THE BEST OF EVERYTHING ARE UNDER SUCH GREAT STRESS, TRYING TO PAY FOR THINGS.

 WE ARE TO NOT LOVE THINGS, WE ARE TO LOVE PEOPLE, JUST USE THINGS.
SOME HAVE IT THE OTHER WAY AROUND, THEY USE PEOPLE TO GET THE THINGS THEY LOVE.

 WE MUST LEARN TO BE CONTENT. 

 SATISFIED WITH WHAT WE HAVE, AND APPRECIATE HOW BLESSED WE ARE.

 IN CLOSING OUT THIS WEEK, WE SEE AND HEAR MUCH CONFUSION IN THE WORLD, BUT,
PRAISE GOD! 

 OUR WORLD IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD WHERE THERE IS PEACE, CONTENTMENT AND LOVE FLOWING FROM THE RIVER OF LIFE.

 BELOVED, THERE IS NO CONFUSION IN JESUS. KEEP YOUR EYES ON HIM AND YOU WILL LEARN TO APPRECIATE THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE. 

 KEEP YOUR MIND ON THE GOODNESS OF GOD  AND PEACE WILL FOLLOW.

 PHILIPPIANS 4:19-20
AND MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEED (NOT YOUR GREED) ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY BY CHRIST JESUS. 
NOW TO OUR GOD AND FATHER BE GLORY FOREVER AND EVER.  AMEN.

 REMEMBER WHEN GOD GIVES US AN ABUNDANCE, IT IS TO SHARE WITH THOSE THAT HAVE LITTLE.  THAT'S GOD'S HEART.

 WHEN THE LITTLE BOY GAVE UP HIS MEAL TO JESUS, IT FED A MULTITUDE, YET THE LITTLE BOY TOOK HOME MORE THAN WHAT HE HAD STARTED WITH.

 THAT IS GOD'S MATH.  
YOU SHOULD BE A GREAT GIVER, JUST LIKE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER.  

 HE GAVE HIS BEST, AND THE MULTIPLICATION OF SAVED SOULS, HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR CENTURIES.

 BELOVED, APPRECIATE THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE, AND SOW YOUR BEST, GOD WILL DO THE REST. 

 SOW FIRST OF ALL HIS LOVE IN OTHERS LIVES, AND SOW YOUR RESOURCES TO HELP OTHERS, AND SOW YOUR PRAYERS ON OTHERS BEHALF.

 YOU WILL REAP LOVE, ALL YOU NEED IN RESOURCES, AND SEE LIVES CHANGED, ALL BECAUSE OF JESUS LIVING IN YOUR HEART, AND YOU ALLOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT TO MOVE IN YOUR LIFE.

  THE SIMPLE THINGS GIVE US PLEASURE.

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...
