I John 4:19 (KJV) – we love him, because he first loved us.

Ephesians 2:8 (KJV) – for by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.

John 14:27 (KJV) – peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Ephesians 1:7 (KJV) – in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.

Psalm 86:5 (KJV) – for thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Take a good look back at events in your life. Can you see God in those events? Can you see God moving in your life?

Some of the decisions in our lives we wished we could have changed because we wanted to be the god in our life, at that moment. And some of the decisions we made were because we were being lead by God, and we’re thankful for those.

When we take control of our lives, it becomes just like a city dump, where there are all kinds of things in it, and we don’t know how to clean it up ourselves. Until we look to God and trust Him, to clean up our mess, our city dump will become so massive, that we will sell our soul to the devil to get it cleaned. But understand, satan will show you what you think you want, and it will only get worst. Satan will try anything, to keep you from following God.

God knows it all. Begin to trust God, little by little, and watch Him clean up the city dump that you’ve made. Watch Him guide you to victory, to true joy, and to true peace.

Obey God, and leave all the consequences to Him. You will win every single time!

Isaiah 48:17 (KJV) – thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

John 10:10 (KJV) – the thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Proverbs 3:5 (KJV) – trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

II Corinthians 3:18 (KJV) – but we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

What you do in the dark – in secret, will come to the light, and will come with consequences. But more importantly, what is done in the dark – in secret, God reveals it in the open for others to see.

Getting into something in secret, and of the flesh, is a red flag within itself, has everything that says; do not do it. Not to mention the consequences of the flesh is guaranteed and costly.

Practicing to obey God and leaving the consequences to Him; is hard, but far more rewarding.

Jeremiah 23:24 (KJV) – can any hid himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord.

John 7:4 (KJV) – for there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known, openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

Romans 6:23 – for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Chris our Lord.

Every time you say yes to God, He will say yes to you.

Draw closer to God, and He will draw closer to you.

James 4:8 (KJV) – draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners: and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

Why are we jealous and envious of others, who get what they have by hurting others. We’re mostly jealous of the fact that they have it.

You can’t go through life hurting others by getting what you want? It will soon find you, and definitely will come back to bite you?

Therefore, there’s is no need for jealousy of what someone has. Especially if they got it for selfishness, greed or ulterior motives. They may appear happy on the outside, but on the inside, there’s no real joy, no real happiness, and no real peace.

Let the peace of God reign in you, and know that every good thing and every perfect gift is from God, not from man.

Proverbs 6:34 (KJV) – for jealously is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

Romans 15:33 (KJV) – now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

James 1:17 (KJV) – every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Bitterness, anger, and envy can do you more harm than the person you’re holding it against. It will cause you to live your life half-happy, with fake joy, and pretending to be something that you’re not. And the person you’re holding hostage in your heart and mind are not concerned with, or may not even know, what you’re festering.

Let it go, and let them go. Holding on to ill-feelings is not of God, but sin. Forgive them, forgive yourself, and enjoy the life God has planned for you.

Peace is priceless, stop paying for sin. Jesus already did that for you.

Ephesians 4:31 (KJV) – let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice.

Matthew 6:14-15 (KJV) – for if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

John 14:27 (KJV) – peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Galatians 1:4 (KJV) – who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father.

Jigsaw puzzles, crossword puzzles, and our lives are similar. Once you have solved one part of the puzzle, you can move forward. In our lives, once you have done the will of God, you can move forward.

As long as you try to fit in a wrong piece, it will never fit correctly, and cause all kinds of problems.

You can force something that is not in God’s plan for you, but it will always be a problem, no matter how much you try to fix what doesn’t belong. The longer you force it, the longer you withhold your blessings.

Psalm 66:18 (KJV) – if I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.

Jeremiah 5:25 (KJV) – your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.

There is so much power in the word of God. More powerful than any thing and any man. Trust — whatever God speaks, it is done.

God’s word reaches the depth of your soul, and the most powerful words you can speak. We shall live by His word. So don’t think that you won’t.

How can you not want to know His word — to know Him.

Hebrews 4:12 (KJV) – for the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Matthew 4:4 (KJV) – but he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

The flesh believes, that to be strong we have to stand up for ourselves and be ready to physically fight, and to speak harshly towards others. That we should never swallow our pride, but to prove ourselves to others.

There is nothing wrong with standing up for ourselves, but it’s how we stand. God will fight our every battle if we let him. He will tell us want to say in the time it needs to be said. We don’t have to practice it beforehand. Pray, and God will speak it through us. He knows what we are going to face before we know it. He is our saviour.

We are to be humble. But the flesh sees humility as being weak — a doormat. What the flesh does not know is, humility is wisdom, strength and power, and the flesh is weak. Any battle against us, is against God.

Jesus didn’t walk around showing himself mighty, but he humbled himself, ever step of the way, and God exalted him . . . every step of the way. Through his humility, He died for us, to live with us.

Humble yourself in order to become wise, and God will exalt you. He will lift you up. He will cause your enemies to be good to you. He will fight your battles.

Remember, you have to give account to God, not man.

Matthew 10:19-20 (KJV) – but when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

Matthew 6:8 (KJV) – be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

Matthew 26:41 (KJV) – watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Hosea 13:4 (KJV) – yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.

I Peter 5:6 (KJV) – humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.

Romans 14:12 (KJV) – so then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

Did you know God is knocking at your door, waiting for you to open it and let him in?

He has been calling you, but you won’t listen.

Stop . . . Listen . . .

Open the door and let him in, and He will, in no way, cast you away from him.

Revelation 3:20 (KJV) – behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

John 6:37 (KJV) – all that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
