NOTHING WORKS UNLESS YOU DO

The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. Genesis 2:15 (NIV) As an adult you have to do work of some sort whether it is ministry, business, or a job. You have to in some way, shape or form engage in service to mankind. You cannot afford to be idle because that will only lead to poverty. When you work in service to mankind you make a difference. Making a difference is the number one reason why you are here and it is your choice how you will make that difference. When you work you will profit. In all labor there is profit, but idle chatter leads only to poverty. Proverbs 14:23 You were created to work and manage the earth. There is no getting around it, but you find some people who want to do well financially but don’t want to engage in work. That is laziness and it leads to poverty. He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. Proverbs 10:4 Lazy people end up poor and hardworking people...

PRAY FOR LEADERS IN YOUR COUNTRY

Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 2 Timothy 2:1-2 As a child of God it is your responsibility to pray for leaders in your country. Leaders in your country are appointed by God and you need to pray for them not criticize them. Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme, or to governors, as those who are sent by him for the punishment of evil doers and for the praise of those who do good. 1 Peter 2:13 God can speak to their hearts to favor the church. God can speak to their hearts to make decisions that are in line with His Word. That is where your prayers come in; your prayers are needed for God to work in your leader’s hearts. The king’s heart is in the hands of the LORD, like the rivers of water; He turns it wherev...

Uphold my steps in Your paths, that my footsteps may not slip. Psalm 17:5 Some Christians think that they might fail or fall. If you are a Christian don’t think like that, trust in the Lord because God loves you and He is able to keep you from falling. Christianity is all about God loving you and you loving God and people. If you love God, He will cause to be at the right place at the right time and He will certainly keep you from falling. Jesus said to him, “’You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.’” This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40 We love God because He first loved us. When you know how much God loves you, you will love Him. Rely on God’s love for you, focus on God’s love for you and you will fall in love with the Lord. In this the love of God was manifested tow...
