What Next? (2)

Text : Philippians 3:14 

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

When you don't have clear picture of the end in mind, you may likely miss the mark. May we not run amiss in Jesus name. 

Apostle Paul knew what he was aiming at. He ran with an end in mind. He pressed toward the mark. He was so purposeful and intentional about His *PURSUIT.* He ran for the prize of the high calling. The question you need to ask yourself today is: What am I running for? What am I living for? How do I see my life in the NOW and Hereafter? 

You must understand that you are an eternal being. Your soul is the only thing you have that outlive and outspan this present world. It is so much more precious and weighted than the world.

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?  Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?Mark 8:36-37

Knowing that your soul is eternal. Why then would you be using eternal element(soul), to be serving the ephemerals  and mundane? Though you may use your soul for the ephemera, yet it cannot find satisfaction and fulfillment. It can only find full expression in the ONE who has created "her" 

Because there is eternity in your soul, you must learn not to use your soul for the mundane and ephemera.Luke 12:15

Your soul must be reserved for the utmost and glorious use of God. While your soul could connect with the physical things, it must not be expended on it. Don't spend your soul on this world. God wants you to love Him with All your soul. And you shalt love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all thy soul.....Mark 12:30. The demand for us is to love God with the whole of your soul.

 *Watch It! Your soul is preserved for eternity, only if  you use the whole of it to love the Lord.* 

Bible reading: Proverbs 3:1-35.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
