The lie that needs to be confronted with love.

Image
There is a lie that needs to be confronted in love. It’s that I can’t help how I feel. With Holy Spirit’s help, you can change how you feel. I CAN change how I feel. Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God.  Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 The city I lived in banned Conversation Therapy. My country is in the process of making it criminal. The city didn’t define what Conversion Therapy was, but insisted no one be forced to give up how they identify. I’m in agreement that no one should be forced to change law...

Can you really live unoffendable?

Image
Is it right to live unoffendable anymore? Don’t we have to fight for our rights? Learn how you be more unoffendable today. I live unoffendable. Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud  or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.  It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.  Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 How can we live unoffendable? I saw a sign at the side of the road. It was advertising ads space. It is a sign of a monkey sitting on a tree looking at a sign advertising bananas. And I got a little offended. Is the company telling me I’m the monkey and it’s easy to sell to me? If I decide to buy that advertising space I’m definitely the monkey they sold the banana to. Have you ever noticed how easy it is for us to take offence? I’ve come to realize that if I get offended over ad...

How honour helps you to change your situation

Image
Honour helps you to change any situation that is interpersonal. Read why this is the case and why we need to choose to honour everyone. I honour all people. Respect everyone, and love the family of believers. Fear God, and respect the king. 1 Peter 2:17 Why should we honour everyone? Why would the Peter tell us to “honour all people”? Didn’t the king he told everyone to honour have Him die by upside down crucifixion? He told us to honour everyone because. It’s what the Father has done for us. Honour is when you change the relationship with another. It’s when you raise someone up to your level. You refuse to respond to them the way they respond you. This is what the Father did for us when we became part of His family and He seated us in heavenly places. Ephesians 2:4-6 (New Living Translation) But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you h...

Why peace is the feeling you can never be without.

Image
Peace is the feeling we can never be without. It comes from trusting God. Do you let peace rule your heart? Peace rules my heart. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Colossians 3:15 Peace needs to rule our heart. Peace comes from trusting God. We need to trust God with our whole heart. That’s a lot to unpack. Peace is the person of Jesus Let’s start with peace. It’s not the absence of war. Peace is the person of Jesus. I was researching for this blog post and decided to look at the context of the verses I wanted to use to encourage you today. The verse on my heart said, “Seek peace and pursue it”. In the version we’re going to look at it reads “Search for peace and work to maintain it.” I wanted to know what the Bible said about searching for peace and working to maintain it. And guess what? It suddenly became very practical for us. Let’s read 1 Peter 3:7-12 1 Peter 3:7-12 Ne...

Why finding Soul friends is the one thing you need to do to change your life forever

Image
Finding Soul friends is the one thing you need to do to change your life forever. What are they and how do you find them? Soul friends are life changing friends. Love each other with genuine affection,  and take delight in honouring each other. Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. Romans 12:10-11 What are soul friends? If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far travel with others. A soul friend is a friend that travels with you a long way. Soul friends love with genuine affection. Soul friends take delight in honouring each other. Soul friends make the decision to love with patience and kindness, without envying or boasting. They aren’t proud or rude or keep records of wrong. Do you have someone you’d call a soul friend? What if you don’t in this current time and place you’re in? How do you find soul friends? Soul friends require trust. Trust chiefly gets built over time. Men build trust by sweating together, but it still takes time to truly ...

The darker the night, the brighter my light

Image
The darker the night gets, the brighter the light gets. Learn how to show this natural occurrence in practicality of real life. The darker the night the brighter my light. Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” John 8:12 The darker the night gets, the brighter the light gets. It’s the way of the world. Can it be true in our lives? Or is it weak comparison? I know Jesus calls us the light of the world, but was he just waxing poetic? I know Isaiah said in 60:1-3 “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you  and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. But without doubt Isaiah’s prophecy was a poem, was it not? It’s not always true that light overpow...

Little simple gestures change lives daily

Image
Little simple gestures change peoples lives daily. Keep up being the amazing you that you are. You’re changing the worlds that you’re probably not aware of. Little simple gestures change people’s lives. But this will be your opportunity to tell them about me.  So don’t worry in advance about how to answer the charges against you,  for I will give you the right words and such wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to reply or refute you! Luke 21:13-15 Oh my goodness, it seems like so long ago I had this thought thinking about how little simple gestures other people had on me completely changed my life. It came after someone made the effort to seek me out to thank me for something I did - that I completely forgot about doing. It was really not a big deal for me to do. Apparently it changed his life. Then I started thinking about things others did for me that were probably not a big deal for them, but it made a huge difference for me. The ones who took our kids so we could have...

Learn the Three Powerful Keys to Live LIGHT

Image
There are three powerful keys to Live LIGHT. Each make a huge difference in our life. Gratitude, grace and generosity are game changing decisions to make daily. Three Power Keys - Gratitude, Grace and Generosity are choices I make today. Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. Colossians 2:7 Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen. 2 Peter 3:18 Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God. 2 Corinthians 9:11 But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favouritism and is always sincere. James 3:17 Why three powerful keys...

Does loving right really matter the most?

Image
Here’s why loving right matters the most and why we keep in step with the Spirit in the day to day of everyday. Loving right matters the most. We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters. 1 John 3:16 Life is short. Forever is real. Loving right matters the most. What is loving right? John tells us what real love is. In 1 John 4:7-19 he writes: “Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love. God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each ...

Is doing right better than knowing right?

Image
Is doing right better than simply knowing right? Knowledge can puff us up, but love will build us up. Doing right is better than simply knowing right. Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them. John 13:17 Is it more important for us to be doing right than to simply know what right? I think the statement “You know more than you do” is sadly ironic in a couple of stages in Christian journey. New people on the journey often think they don’t know enough. It’s those of us further ahead in the journey’s fault they think that way. We’ve failed to impress on them that it is Holy Spirit who teaches them all things and will remind them of what Jesus taught His disciples. Holy Spirit is God and God is enough. I’ve often said if I can teach someone to hear God and obey God, I know they’ll go far in their Christian walk. That tool and that decision will protect them, empower them, and transform them. Sadly too many people - who have been Christians for a lot longer - never...

How to be whole hearted and enjoy life

Image
Can someone live whole hearted? Do you know what it’s like to live whole hearted? Most of experience it in different seasons of our life. Maybe when you were in school and had to get a certain grade? Perhaps it was when you were pursuing your spouse or awaiting the birth of a child? Maybe when something happened in life and all you could do was put one foot in front of the other? Do you know we can live our whole life whole hearted? It’s best when our heats align wholeheartedly with God’s heart. The Manifesto has the statement- It’s amazing what happens when I align my whole heart - my emotion, my intellect and my action - with the Father’s heart. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful heart...
