For you to be valuable in life, to be a successful man or woman, you must acquire Integrity. Lack of Integrity result to failure in life. Now, one of the greatest assets to considered in life is Character. Prayers and fasting are not likely to influence your Character. The only key to unlocking your Character is your decision. In the realm of substances, we do not enter with ability but integrity. Integrity will take you to where ability cannot. When you allow integrity to enter your heart, you will begin to experience God's attention. It can only be found in the heart. 'As for you, if you will walk before Me as your father David walked, in integrity of heart and uprightness, doing according to all that I have commanded you and will keep my statues and my ordinances...' - 1 Kings 9:4-15 But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his ...

I don’t know about you, but I can be easily distracted when I’m praying. But over the years I’ve picked up some great ways to focus my prayers....  Here are 5 more ways I’ve learned to help me sharpen my prayers. Write out your prayers Often I will begin my prayer time by writing out things I’m thankful for. I write them to the Lord, almost like a letter, beginning with something like this:  “Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Thank you for….”  or “Lord Jesus, Thank you for…”  And I go on to write things I’m grateful for. Writing my thanks keeps me focused. Sometimes I begin a time of prayer by reading past thanksgivings I’ve written. I’ve also found that writing out other prayers has been very helpful as well. As I pray the prayers I have written, I don’t restrict myself to reading them word for word, but use them as reminders. Pray specific Bible verses In my “family” section of my prayers, I have several Scriptures that are promises for paren...

In the spiritual realm, there is no room for stagnancy. One either goes forward or backslides! How then does one ensures consistent spiritual growth? : 1. Certainty of the genuineness of our salvation; because the foundation is very important. They are like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built  - Luke 6:48 2. Regular (daily), consistent morning and evening devotion. You, God, are my God,      earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you,      my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land      where there is no water. - Psalm 63:1 3. Steady study and personal application of the word of God and other quality Christian literature. They are like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake i...

Many young people choose to do their own thing. They tell themselves, "l'll come to Christ when I get ready. I'll have some fun first." They're tangled up in a net of popularity or partying or peer pressure. Others get into nets of wrong relationships  and miss their moment of destiny. The " chance and time " time is already preordained. It's ready for each and every person. But if you're tied up in a net of sin and bondage and bitterness, it will keep you back. Ask God to do something about it. Ask Him to do as He did for Andrew,  who was involved with his fishing nets when Jesus walked up to him and said two words: " Follow Me "  seeMatthew  4: 18-20   Andrew had never seen Him before. Jesus didn't wait for an answer.  He didn't give him much time to think. He just said, " Follow Me ". And Andrew dropped his nets and followed Him. What would have happened if he had been tangled up in his nets? Andrew did not miss his...

Sex is an important element in marriage(wedding) and until there is sexual intercourse between a husband and his wife, the marriage is not yet physically and spiritually recognized [only legally, even to an extent]. This shows how important sex is in marriage. When you look at how aggressive men are towards sex, you may be tempted to think that's what men need from women. Of course, if he hasn't married you yet or does not intend to marry you, what he will need from you is nothing above your body. But if he intends to marry you or if you are already married, sex is  not always  what he needs from you. - lets put it this way;  "WHAT A MAN NEEDS MOST FROM A WOMAN IS NOT SEX." Many young ladies have the notion that, because they are sexually active and experienced, they will easily be married and have their husbands loving them. Sometimes, when a man approaches for marriage, some ladies perceive that the greatest asset they have to show the man is sex. Others think that,...

A carpenter went home after shutting down his workshop. Unknowingly, a black poisonous cobra entered his workshop before the lock up. The cobra was hungry and hoped to find its supper lurking somewhere within. It slithered from one end to another and accidentally bumped into a double-edged metal axe and got slightly injured. In anger and seeking revenge, the snake bit the axe with full force. What could a bite do to a metallic axe? The cobra began to bleed in her mouth. Out of fury and arrogance, the cobra tried its best to strangle and kill the object that was causing it pain by wrapping itself  very tight  around the blades. The next day, when the carpenter opened the workshop, he found a seriously injured, dead cobra wrapped around the axe blades. The cobra died not because of someone's doing but faced these consequences merely because of its anger and wrath. Sometimes when angry, we try to cause harm to others but as time passes by, we realize that we have caused more harm...

If anything is deadly in Christian living, then it is  secret sin.  Ask and I'll tell you! God is sick and tired of people who live in  duality . Secret sins are like Egyptian mummies; they look preserved from the top but rotten from beneath. Isaiah 29:13 "Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near [me] with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me,  but have removed their heart far from me , and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:" You might look mighty and spiritual on the outside but if you have secret sins, your heart is far from God! KILL SECRET SINS BEFORE IT KILLS YOU!!! #Kill_the_enemy_within #Discipline God bless you for reading For the promotion of the Gospel of Jesus Christ [GreaterLOVE/ Bra Eddy Joy® ]
