We can spend time around people who are like us, yet we truly don’t know them, because we don’t take the time to know them.

When we spend time with someone, talk and ask questions, we build a relationship. We begin to know more about them, and their character. Then we begin to have benefits that we didn’t have before.

Spend time with God, and get to know Him. He wants you to know him. Build a personal relationship with Him, and you will soon see, you will have access to things that you didn’t have before.

Psalm 103:2 (KJV) – bless the Lord O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.

John 17:3 (KJV) – and this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Most of us believe we can save ourselves, but we can’t. The flesh can’t do anything good of itself. But, if we believe on the Lord, we will be save, as well as those in our household.

If you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. You are saved by the grace of God through faith.

Acts 16:31 (KJV). and they said, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

Romans 10:9 (KJV) – that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

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

We allow others to stir us up, but we have to recognize that this is satan. Satan’s job is to divide us.

Be aware of the devices of satan, and know that his works are never good. Nothing satan offers if good.

Stay in God’s peace, read the word of God to know how to fight off satan and his devices.

II Corinthians 2:11 (KJV) – lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

Philippians 4:7 (KJV) – and the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

If we walk with wise men, we will become wise. If we walk with foolish men, we will become foolish.

You become who you spend time with.  The choice you make will either be priceless or costly. Choose wisely.

Proverbs 13:20 (KJV) – He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

Laughter is good for the soul.

Laughter reduces stress and a negative attitude.  It increases optimism, a positive attitude, refreshes you and gives you more energy.

Laugh and laugh some more – everyday!!

Job: 8:21 (KJV) – till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.

Psalm 126: 2 (KJV) – then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.

If you truly look at it, our faith is based on what we see, the wisdom of man, and what man says. Oh my, how disastrous!

Our faith should be in the power of God, and not ourselves, for God holds all power.

I Corinthians 2:5 (KJV) – that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

I Corinthians 4:20 (KJV) – for the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

II Corinthians 4:7 (KJV) – but we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

Matthew 28:18 (KJV) – and Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

Does your faith say, that you believe that God is who He say He is?

Believe it. If you don’t believe it now, you will later.

Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) – but without faith, it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Romans 14:11 (KJV) – for it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God..
