ATTITUDE-2

Text : Romans 12:2 

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Coincidence or not, it has been proven that if knowledge, hardwork, and attitude are written numerically,  it's only attitude that will add up to 100%.

That is, if letter A is 1, B=2, C=3 all through till Z which is 26. Then, when you add up each letter in ATTITUDE according to the numbers they represent it will give 100.

It is your attitude towards life that makes life 100% or otherwise. "Your attitude determines your altitude", goes the popular saying.

If you will be sincere with yourself,  you would have noticed one attitude or the other in yourself that is not so comely and that you will like to do away with.

However,  sheer determination alone is not sufficient to change a bad attitude.  It takes the workings of God in a man via His words to alter his attitude. 

Psalms 119:9 says How can a young man keep his behavior pure? By guarding it in accordance with your word.

 *Any behaviour that is not guarded by God's word will fall short of God's standard,* even though such behaviour  may be praised in this world. 

As a child of God, you must know that you can't conform to this world and its systems and be transformed into God's image at the same time. 
It's either you are conforming or you are  transforming. 

The only thing that can lead to a positive attitude however is transformation from within.

Bible Reading :Romans 12: 1-2.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, give me the grace to embrace mind renewal through daily meditation in your word.

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...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
