Be careful of the "Word"

The Word of God in the Bible is very important to us. The Word of God directs helps give us direction. Without the Word of God our amour would be incomplete. The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit and we use it to slice the enemy into pieces. God even exalts the Word of God above himself. God always makes sure that His Word is accomplished On the other hand the enemy also knows the Word of God, he used the same Word of God to tempt Jesus. The truth is the enemy can still use the Word of God to lead you astray. In order to hold on to the correct Word of God, we must be in the right position/ right stand with God. Sometimes we go astray because we do not live according to the correct Word for our situation. For example God may say "repent and I will forgive you" but instead we say "I am more than a conquer". It is very important to listen to the Holy Spirit and apply the correct Word in our lives. In order for the Word of God to be living in our life, we have...

Trust in man Vs God

Micah 7:5 "Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom" Jeremiah 9:4 "Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders." Its very important not to put our trust in people. No matter how good a person may be, the bottom line is they are not God. For that very reason we must not put our confidence in man. Man is not like God. Man changes and God does not change. Humans will disappoint you even if they do not intend to do so. Work hand in hand with people, love people, forgive people but do not put your confidence in them.This week I encourage you to put your confidence in God, it will help keep you in perfect peace and help you deal with disappointment Its a good thing to trust God with your friends and family. Trust God that He will cause them to do the right thing or treat...

Fearful

Most of the time as human beings we are filled with fear. We fear to be ourselves, we are fearful concerning our future, we are fearful concerning our families, we fear carrying out God's will, the list goes on and on. I am a man who is attacked by fear as well. I am not immune to fear. This world I live in is sometimes very uncertain. I never know how people are going to react to me or how certain events are going to unfold. My only hope is in God. Even though I may be full of fear, one thing for sure is that God promises He will never put us to shame. God is not going to allow fear to limit me. He gives me victory over fear every time it comes. This week I want to encourage you to trust God to overcome fear for you. If you have fear concerning anything you feel God would like you to do, I encourage you to just do it.
