Romans 1:19
"Because that which may be known of
God is manifest in them; for God
hath showed it unto them"
God Created this world and the universe around us, for us to live and to know Him as the Father of life to all things. The Scriptures show us as we study them that God makes no mistakes. When God created you and I, He had a purpose for us. His purpose is not hid from us, because it has been manifest in us and given to us in "God's Written Holy Word."
This world and what happens to it is under God's Control; as for us "Yes" it's the same, God is in control. The Bible says that our life's are predestined by God; however we live our lives is our choice. But remember there is this thing called "The Guilt Of Mankind." If we are ungodly and unrighteous, we hold the truth in unrighteousness and we shall feel the wrath of God. I pray today that you will take an in depth look into your lives. For at the coming of our Lord there will be no excuses.
I plead with you today, "Don't let God Slip Away." Amen!!!
May God Bless You

We Are Not To Care Only For Ourselves!
Matthew 25:40b
"Insomuch as you have done it unto one of
my brethren, ye have done it unto me"
If your not a Christian, I wonder if you have ever realized this. Have you realized that you were not made to care only about yourself? For that matter you are not made to care even primarily about yourself. In the same way that we are born utterly dependent on our parents for survival and dependent on our spouse for sexual union, we were designed to be spiritually dependent on some one else---"On God Himself." But according to the bible we have sinned and became separated from God. We have rejected Him and have become our own lords, and this self-centerness has left us open to a certain judgement of God. If you are a Christian I pray that you take these principles to heart, for we are prone to a weak conscience. To keep our conscience strong we read God's Word daily. Amen!!

Form Habits To Express God's Grace
2 Corinthians 4:11
"That the life also of Jesus might be
made manifest in our mortal flesh"
We have to form habits to express what God's grace has done in us. It is not a question of being saved from hell, but of being saved in order to manifest the life of the son of God in our mortal flesh, and it is the disagreeable things which make us exhibit whether or not we are manifesting His life. Let's evaluate ourselves. Do I manifest the essential sweetness of the Son of God, or the essential irritation of "myself" apart from Him? The only thing that will enable me to enjoy the disagreeable is the keen enthusiasm of letting the life of the Son of God manifest itself in me. No matter how disagreeable a thing may be, say; "Lord I am delighted to obey Thee in this matter, and instantly the Son of God will press to the front, and there will be manifested in my human life that which glorifies Jesus. Amen!!

Put Your Trust In God
Proverbs 16:3
"Commit thy works unto the Lord, and
thy thoughts shall be established"
No matter what, your circumstances you can trust God. God is able and willing to give you peace. You experience peace only as you trust God and keep your attention focused on Him. A God based family is peace, and a peaceful home is a source of joy to it's members and to all who are touched by their lives. We learn to keep our hearts pure through a life based faith. No longer live out your own desires, live out only God's direction. Giving your heart to the Lord is not just a once in awhile commitment, it is a daily living commitment. Trust in God's wisdom and keep your heart's pure. Amen!!

Love Turns Praise into Blessing
Psalm 145: 10
"And the Saints shall bless thee"
When You and I praise God, there is the element of will, of intelligence, of desire, of intent; and in the Saints of God there is another element, namely that of love to Him, of reverent gratitude towards him, and turns the praise into blessing. When you and I are Preaching, Teaching, or witnessing to others about our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; let us not just say and teach; "God helps those who helps themselves," but instead, we must show God that even if you have all the elements as I have stated above, the most important is love toward Him and others as well. Amen!!

Passion Of Patience
Habakkuk 2:3
"Though it tarry, wait for it"
Patience is not indifference; patience conveys the idea of immensely strong rock withstanding all overwhelming attacks. The vision of God is the source of patience, because it imparts a moral inspiration. Moses endured, not because he had an ideal of right and duty, but because he had a vision of God. He "endured, as seeing Him who is 1invisible." A man with the vision of God is not devoted to a cause or to any particular issue; he is devoted to God Himself. You always know when the vision is of God because of the inspiration that comes with it; things come to life because everything is energized by God. If God gives you a time spiritually, as He gave His son actually, of temptation in the wilderness, with no word from Himself at all, endure, and the power to endure is there because you see God. "Though it tarry, wait for it." Amen!!!

Get Rid Of Wrong Traditions
Genesis 22:10
"And Abraham stretched forth his hand,
and took the knife to slay his son"
Character determines how a man interprets God's will. Abraham interpreted God's command to mean that he had to kill his son, and he could only leave this tradition behind by the pain of a tremendous ordeal. God could not purify his faith in no other way. If we obey what God says according to our sincere belief, God will break us from those traditions that misrepresent Him. There are many such beliefs to be got rid of, such as; that God removes a child because the mother loves him too much, that's a devils lie! and a true travesty of the nature of God. If the devil can hinder us from taking the supreme climb and getting rid of wrong traditions about God, he will do so; but if we keep true to God, God will take us through an ordeal which will bring us out into a better knowledge of Himself. Amen!!
