Better Stewards Of Our Words~

-



How are we DECREASING SO THAT HE MAY INCREASE while murmuring and complaining? Thank God for His Holy Spirit that resides within us to pull our coat tail when we're in the thick of being disobedient. What do you mean by that Sis Tracie? When we complain, murmur, talk negative, speak things opposite of the word we are being DISOBEDIENT! Remember the Lord has blessed us with two guards to use daily "Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips." Psalm 141:3. Those two guards are our teeth and lips! So how are we as the body of Christ being disobedient? Once we know TRUTH, spiritual right from wrong, we must at all times live it, speak it and do it! "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." James 4:17.

I'm confessing out loud before my brethren that I too have those days when I allow my flesh to rise up and just talk nonsense. But we serve a GOD that is Faithful/Just and will forgive us by asking! The Holy Spirit lead me to this passage on this morning -"Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few" Ecclesiastes 5:2.

You see that, let our words be few. Every idle/shallow word we speak is in front of God! I'm praying that the Lord will continue to have mercy upon me, but most of all continue to mold into the image of His Son's likeness in EVERY area of our life.

Be Blessed~

  I come to exhort you by the mighty hand of God to go on with the Lord. Spirit speaking- "A lot of people are getting discouraged because they are looking at how big their situations or circumstances are instead of looking at what a mighty God we serve. He says that you have overestimated the enemy in your life." The enemy of your soul whole agenda is to destroy the plan of God that is concernin g your life. He knows that he can't get directly to God so he figures why not use God's people? He has no power over you; DON'T GIVE IN AND DON'T GIVE UP!! At this crucial point, there is no turning back, you've come to far to turn around now. Remember, your steps are ordered by God- follow in them. I beseech you to take up your cross and Follow Christ. I know this is an old message but the Spirit of the Lord said to "remind them again". Don't allow anyone to come in and shake you off the path God has predestined for you! For the ho...

Who's Your Friend??

Blessings, I want to say this in love to you all. I'm going to put this as gentle as I know how. Stop calling everyone your friend!!! Psa 27:17 "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.". Pro 18:24 "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." The Lord Jesus Christ gave us the definition of a true friend: "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you" (John 15:13-15). The Lord reminded me of the four friends that went all the way out of their way to help a true friend to be healed by the Lord. Mark 2:4 "And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they unc...

We know that the devil comes to exploit weaknesses and if you leave cracks and crevices open, he will squeeze his way in without notification.  His job is to steal, kill and destroy the plan of God that is predestined for your life.  He is very conniving and very deceptive in his approach and we as believers must make sure that we guarded with the whole armor of God at all times.  In this day, he is coming stronger with more force but he only possesses the power that you give him.  If you do not entertain him or his little friends, then he won't have any power to overtake you. Deuteronomy 28:7 says "The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways." The devil has already lost but he is trying to take as many with him as he can, apparently just to hurt God. And however much the devil succeeds in doing this, God hurts -- like a parent does over los...
