Sowing and Reaping

Galatians 6:7-9 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not

There is a law that God has put in place and that is a law of sowing and reaping. This obviously is not only about finances. It includes a lot of things, it may be the way we relate to others and the way we relate to God etc. Paul here was especially speaking about the fact that if we sow to the flesh we will reap corruption and if we sow to the spirit we will reap life everlasting. He was not speaking about finances.

If we sow to the spirit (live according to the word) we will reap all the good spiritual fruits like peace and joy and eventually enter heaven and be given crowns. on the negative side, we can sow to the flesh (do as we please and ignore the Holy Spirit or the Word of God) we will therefore reap the opposite of the fruits of the spirit. we will have no peace and joy.

As I always say, God does not force anyone to do anything. He is not a controlling God He has given us free will to choose what we want. Its absolutely our choice weather we want to sow to the flesh or to the spirit. God is simply telling us the truth. what is your choice?

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?

He has been given the Platform

It is very painful and upsetting to see how the devil has been given a platform to show what he can do and what he is capable of. He has been given a platform right here in the church. He plainly tells us that he comes in the form of water spirits, witchcraft, snake spirits etc. He proudly manifests himself and our church leaders are happy when it happens. Our church leaders sometimes talk to these demons and play around with the them. Its simply a show. I would recommend that leaders just cast these demons out instead of giving them a platform. We have to understand that the enemy knows that people will not just listen to him so he will make ways to spread his message and he has found a way to spread his message right in front of our eyes in the church. Our church leaders like this because it causes curiosity and brings a lot of people to the church and that equals tithes and offerings. I was very surprised when watching TV the other day, a preacher in Zimbabwe mentioned that he wen...

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.
