Singles

Hi everyone.  How are you today?
I'm doing very okay,ensuring I put up all the posts I have stored up.
I could not exactly find a title for this post but I knew I wanted to share it. So I settled with 'Singles'😁 and I'm hoping you enjoy it. 💜

Apostle Paul was talking about the unbelieving husband/wife and the believing husband or wife. He says and specifically mentions that it wasn’t God speaking but him, that if the unbelieving spouse is willing to remain in with the believing spouse, then so be it. (1Cor.7:12-15)

He makes mention of the married and unmarried and what their life or days is supposed to look like. It was interesting to me the way he spelt things out for singles.

A service to God is how to live out right.

He said
  ‘…the unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit…’

In Romans.12:1-2, he puts it this way ‘I beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 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 perfect, will of God.

The way to present your body holy and acceptable unto God is to render a reasonable service unto him. In order words, there’s something about an active service to God that helps an individual stay holy and acceptable unto God. There’s something about an active service that tailors our moves only in the right direction. Truth is, in the middle of a service to God the vices of hell cannot thrive. I choose the word thrive carefully because he'll may rage but in the midst of the right people its easier to prevail. This is what brings victory over sin. You will have the right set of people around. Your heart will be fixed so much on the Fathers’ business that it would be difficult to fall prey for the devil and you’d be able to recognise his pranks when they arise. And truth is, we grow into understanding this, day by day.
So all the single ladies and guys, y’all go do some God stuff..Input your energy into what God would have you do.Wherever you are, find a place to serve God actively, this is how best to be safe in Christ/the will of the Father. And just in case you’ve been doing stuff because you were told to do it for God, I hope you begin to serve God intentionally and be faithful at it. I pray you find the Joy of serving God too.

Have a great week ahead.

Grace.

    Until we have an exclusive experience with Jesus, we can not render a reasonable service. The apostles became fearless when they came to a knowledge of who Jesus really is. Eph 1:17-18, contains a prayer for us. Blessed piece!

Doors Do Open

Have you ever felt like you have exhausted all of your options and you can’t seem to find a way out?  Or you know that there is more that can be out of a case you are on? I can’t imagine what the widow whose husband left some debts for her to pay before he died must have gone through. Wait, you think all that happened is all there is. In the sense, you have pressed all your buttons and made all your moves. Knocked all the doors you know and made the calls. You now think its over. You think there’s no way out again? Be there! You seem to have forgotten so quick that God is the one that makes things happen. Look at the widow whose husband left her in debt. She was broke. No money no possession my sons up for sale kindof broke. Her two sons were going to be taken captive to pay for the debts that was on ground. Of course she was devastated. She had no possession to sell to get some money. The only thing she knew to do was to go meet Elisha who her husband served with. ...

Gods word as our reality

If anything would go through our spirit to our soul and then to reality,its going to pass through our mind. And if anything is going to have an impact on the spirit it would go through the mind. And so the mind is the place where a thing really is made or mared. It's where we either get an headway or remain stranded/on the same spot/can't see a way. It's the battlefield as it's often put. 2Cor.10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; This passage makes us to see that imaginations and thoughts have a way of exhausting themselves above the knowledge of God in our minds and we are the ones to do the job of making sure the word of God is the status quo of our mind...finding out what the word of God says and making it preeminence over and above any other thought. re-enforcing what the word of God says. Capturing God's idea(word) in ou...

Happy New Year.

It's good to write you for the first time in the new year. This time of the year when new decisions are made,new strategies,new resolutions and etc. Whilst all these are very good it's important not to forget what is most important  for the journey ahead. Moses, the superman assigned by God to lead Gods very own people was not about to do so without asking Gods presence to go with him. Exodus 33:15   And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. I want to point your attention to intentionally asking God to go with you into the year. He's always with you no doubt,however there is a side of God that walks with us and we experience when we ask Him to walk with us. James 4:8a NKJV- 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.  You're going to need God in everything you do this year and in as much as He has given us a promise of his presence; Pr.3: 6 says "In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths....
