  • YOUR DESIRE AS A CHRISTIAN

    YOUR DESIRE AS A CHRISTIAN

    Hello everyone, my name is divine , a growing christian just like you ,I was listening to a podcast and the sermon was about the ability to desire, so I picked out some points and read more about it in the scriptures and here I am sharing it with you guys….. Okay so as a human being, religion aside , we all have desires, because the flesh will surely want

    God created the ability to desire but we are responsible for what we desire….. We know God created good and evil but it’s still our responsibility to choose , he will not choose for us ….

    Okay so according to the word of God, when you desire God and his word the desire for worldly things will not be in you … I’m not saying temptation won’t come but you will overcome because the spirit of God is in you.. hallelujah!!!

    When we read the book of ROMANS 1vs 18-32{it talks about the wrath of God against mankind}. And it also talks about the dislike of God and what he says about ungodliness and unrighteousness. When you do not focus on God , he will leave you or give you up for your desires…

    At times we feel like we are praying against a particular sin like immoral activity, addiction, masturbation and so on…. and we feel like God is not helping because we go back to that same sin again , what is your desire as a Christian.?.. Do you desire God or you still desire lust and temporary pleasure… Please know that desires doesn’t even actually mean engaging in the act, but it is a want for something even if you don’t necessarily partake or have it….

    When we read the word of God , it’s says:. And even as they didn’t live to retain God in Thier knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do these things which are not convenient {ROMANS 1vs 28}. The question is what is your desire?.. The desire of the flesh is know to the devil and he makes us practice this inconvenient things then you feel bad and ashamed after doing them….DO YOU DESIRE GOD OR YOU DESIRE SIN THAT MAKES YOU INCONVENIENT AFTERWARDS.?

    I was glad I got to read this bible passage and understand more about our desires as a Christian because while struggling as a Christian and dealing with sin, the key to it has been our desires all along………….What is your desire, do you desire God or are you still caught up in worldly desires?

    Check yourself. God bless you

  • GIVING THANKS

    GIVING THANKS

    Hello everyone my name is Divine, a growing christian just like you.. I know we are familiar with the word “THANKSGIVING”.It is an act of giving thanks or an acknowledgement of benefits or favours to a person but most especially to God . Biblically it’s a way of expressing thanks to God..

    Tho thanksgiving might vary in meanings to people…. Some people or families express thanksgiving as a day where families come together and eat dinner or watch sport but here we’re going to talk about what the bible really says about Thanksgiving. 🤗. Throughout Gods word we see example after examples of the essential role thankfulness plays in the christian life.. It says in the scripture that no matter the circumstance, giving thanks shouldn’t be limited, Not even a single day of giving thanks should be exempted .. It’s an act of glorifying God and it helps us focus out gaze on his goodness and love over our life …

    PSALMS 95VS2-3: . “GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD , FOR HE IS GOOD. FOR HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER.

    And also in the book of 1st Thessalonians chapter 5, we are told to take some time and reflect on the ways God has blessed our days .. There are a lot of things to be thankful for , when you wake up feeling like a disappointment, do thank God because he woke you up … You are awake that’s why you realized that… There is an opportunity for you already to know what the problem is .

    You wake up with little food on the table ,bless God for that day he gave you and the little it could bring…. My beloved brethrens I want you to know that no matter the situation you are in, some people have it worst..so be thankful in every situation.

    I know you wanna ask “WHAT ABOUT THE BAD DAYS”…… Yeah I know giving thanks in bad situations can be hard , we are human beings, but trust me if you are in Christ and you know about the love of God for you, in that point you will be thankful that there is no situation bigger than our God😃😃. Hallelujah 🔥🙌

    Then you begin to declare upon such situations…. There is no Situation bigger than our God . He is bigger than our problems. There is always a reason to be thankful. If this is a challenge you and you feel like there are days where you have no reasons to be thankful, I want to you to wake up and look at your self in the mirror then start checking out what is going on in the world today………… Then the “WHAT IF ” Question pops up😃….

    WHAT IF I DIDN’T WAKE UP. WHAT IF IM IN COMA. WHAT IF I WOKE UP SICK. WHAT IF I DIDN’T COME BACK HOME LAST NIGHT????????????????? QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!! But fear not people of God … God has not given us the spirit of fear, we don’t need to fear when we have God ❤️we are surrounded by his love . That’s why he woke you and I up this morning , it is a sign that we have a purpose to fulfill , but let’s not forget we need Christ in our life’s to fulfill our purpose in life . Blessed be the name of the lord, he is worthy of our Thanksgiving no matter the situation or circumstances…. There are a million reasons a day to give thanks to God.

    God bless you all 🙏❤️✝️…
