Times for favor
Everybody blow the trumpet
And sound the alarm
Because the lord is in the temple
Let everybody bow
Let all the people bow (2x)
Praise him now the lord is here
The presence of the lord is here (2X).
I feel it in the atmosphere
The presence of the lord is here (2x)
The blessing of the lord is here
(Repeat everybody)
Can’t you see him walking on the outside?
I can feel him moving on the inside
So common enter in and catch a gaze of him
He will open up a
window and pour you out a blessing
For when the lord steps in, he brings everything you need,
Healing power and victory
It’s all up to you, whatever you need he will do, just trust
him and believe him
And by faith you will receive
I can feel the presence of the lord, and am gonna get my
blessing right now
I ain’t waiting no more, I’ve got it
SELF DISCIPLINE
Self Discipline is the ability
of a person to flog his body, take control of it and conform it to the
ways of the Lord. Self discipline is the same as self control and is also a fruit of the holy
spirit[Gal 5:22-23] When I say flog I
don’t means using a whip to beat
yourself up but to take charge of
your body ,grooming it , and making it
your slave[1 Corinthians 9:27] .As human beings, it is only natural that we
have appetite and needs but our Inability to control them can lead us astray . subordinating
and pressing the constant pull of the those worldly desires in
order to please God is not an easy thing. It is only by the power of the holy spirit
that one can do this. Because by biological make of us humans, our bodies cry
for these desires. In such cases, It is
on the holy spirit who can help us overcome this, or curtail it. One can never overcome these desires by
his powers like Apostle Paul said “the thing I have said I will do no more, but find myself doing
them” . But God did not give us a spirit of timidity but a spirit of power love
and self control [2ND Timothy 1:7].
As children if we do not subject
our subject our bodies and make it our slave. It will subject us and make us
her slave. This can only be achieved by committing ourselves to the power of
the holy spirit and because he
dwells in us we have that ability to say no to sin [Roman 8: 9]. Finally an educated
person without self control or discipline is only an educated individual or
devil. Let us as children of God show
self discipline in all spheres of our lives and glorify God’ s name
through this.
DRESSING
MODESTLY
Dressing modestly; does it
entail putting on the longest of skirts? Baggy clothing? Does it entail looking
older than your age in your dress? Or what actually is the writer talking
about?
Dressing modestly means putting
on dresses that covers what should not be seen. It means avoiding what my elder
called “leaves”. When man discovered that he was naked, God made for him and
his wife coats. This was to cover them from their “nakedness”. Thus, the main
purpose of dressing is to “cover” nakedness. But this topic seems to be far
away from our generation, who today in the name of fashion has uncovered
instead of covering themselves. The word by no means condemns beautiful
clothing, but when the dress is inclined to pleasing a trend at the expense of
pleasing God, it becomes a problem. Our body therefore, is the temple of God
and should not be exposed. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).
Dressing modestly does not
compulsorily entail putting on expensive clothes but making the most out of the
little we have to the glory of God’s name. It entails not putting the opposite
sex in trouble when you are passing (Matthew 5:27-29) or walking. Modest
dressing entails covering your record “50 packs” or broad shoulders or your cleavages.
God gave you these things not to cause distraction but to win souls for him
with or praise him (Matthew 5:28) .Let us help ourselves not to fall into sin
but to serve God.
As children of God, we should
praise the Lord in everything we do including dressing modestly. For dressing
modestly goes in hand with decency and propriety.
A heart that is inclined to God,
dresses to please God, but one that is inclined to self, dresses to please
self. Most Ladies think that by dressing immodestly, that they attract men. No
doubt they do! But they attract the wrong set of men who only see them as an
object to calm their insatiable urges. But dressing modestly, covering what is
to be covered, pleases God and brings respect to you. Like the saying: “THE WAY YOU DRESS DETERMINES HOW YOU
WILL BE ADDRESSED”
GIRL
ON SHELF
“IT STARTS
WITH YOU”
LIFE is a great cycle of cause and effect, everyone makes
choices everyday and everyone’s choice affects others. The combination of
everyone’s choices and the effect those choices have on others made the world
what it is. Every problem can be traced to some unloving or selfish choice
someone made. These sins are the major cause of problems in the world today:
selfishness and lack of love. People either don’t see how their wrong choices
affect others or they don’t care enough to do things differently. You may feel
that the world is too messed up, that too many wrong choices have been made,
that it doesn’t matter what you do, that is hopeless, but that is not true. Just
as every problem can be traced to a wrong decision, every solution begins with
wise and loving decision to do the right things, the loving and the unselfish,
things. A little bit of love can make a lot of difference. One act of kindness
or unselfishness can start wholegrain of reaction event that will in the long
run, make life a lot better for a lot of people so don’t despair because there
is so much suffering and grief and wrong in the world instead. So do what you
can do to make things right and encourage others to do the same, the world won’t
change in a day, but you can make the difference if you try. Dare to be
different, dare to do the right thing, and you will see the reward for the act
of love sooner or later. Treat others as you want to be treated. Make a
difference in your environment today. Your personality matters
WHAT A DAY TO REMEMBER.
