Fear and Respect

I have been meditating on these two words for a while. I have come to realize that there is a big difference between fear and respect. Some people say they respect their spouses, parents, ladies and guys, boys and girls, friends, boy friends and girlfriends, family and bosses while in actual fact they fear them. I am saying this from my own experience.

The only fear we should have is the fear of God. Any other fear is contrary to the will of God and it will definitely take us out of the path that he has intended for us. We must respect other people but we must not fear them. Fear brings a lot of things like deceit and flattery. In the work place and in our homes, there must not be fear of man. It must only be the fear of God and respect.

On the other end we cannot force anyone to respect us. Remember we gave our rights to the Lord when we gave our lives to Him including the right to be respected. We should be very humbled and grateful when people respect us.

Please look into this matter deeply and research on it. Any comments are welcome.

LET US FEAR THE LORD AND RESPECT EACH OTHER.
REMEMBER RESPECT IS INSPIRED BY LOVE.

Angry Unhappy Christians

Unfortunately its true, we do have angry and unhappy Christians. I always wonder why its like that. God promises us joy, peace and happiness and yet we still have a lot of angry unhappy Christians. I believe it’s time we re-evaluate our Christianity. Christianity is not supposed to be a bondage and a burden. It’s supposed to give us life in abundance. , We have a people who are Christians out of duty and not out of a free will and love for God. People are just afraid of going to hell and they are teaching other people fear and bondage instead of love and freedom. Bondage brings hatred, anger and unhappiness. It saddens me to see my brethren suffering and not enjoying Christianity. This week I encourage you to lighten up and stop judging everyone that comes your way. This week I encourage you to let go and let God be . Lets re-evaluate our Christianity, why are we Christians?

The Enemy "Time Waster"

Many times I hear people saying "the devil did this and that" and forget that they are Christians. Everything and I mean everything that happens to us as children of God happen because God allows it to happen. It may pain him to allow certain things to happen to us but the truth is He is still in control. We give the devil or Satan too much credit. Everything weather good or bad which happens to me happens because God loves me. I am not going to go around rebuking the devil for everything but instead thank God for victory and deliverance. I have no time to waste fighting the enemy. I just do that automatically by doing the will of God. As I do the will of God He automatically gives me victory. we resist the enemy by doing the will of God and living in obedience.

He Protects

Ladies and gentleman, it is true. God does protect His own. If you desire protection from any force that may come against you, God is the answer. He is the one who constantly protects us. If we move ahead of God and never allow Him to surround us, we will definitely miss out on his protection. If you are a child of God I encourage you not to look for protection anywhere else but look for protection from our Father. We are safe under the shadow of His wings. Rest and be at peace knowing that God has got your back.
