Message about the importance of praying for all men and people in authority
Having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, 20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.
1 Timothy 1 :19-21
Hymeanaeus and Alexander were handed over to the devil by Paul so that they will learn not to blaspheme. Isn’t it funny that while Paul was able to hand the disobedient to satan, some believers keep talking about fear and the devil and are constantly afraid of the devil. The Bible commanded us to fear God but never commanded us to fear the devil. The devil is all about disobedience and he rules the disobedient, even the children of God who are disobedient can be handed over to the devil! That was exactly what Paul did
Make sure that your faith is perfect and complete lacking nothing. If your faith is weak, lifeless, shipwrecked and dead, God will hand you over to satan for testing and trial so that you will learn what you have refused to learn when there was peace and no war. Sometimes, it is only through war and experience that you mature and learn what you need to learn.
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything
James 1:2-4
In this case of Hymenaeus and Alexander, it was blasphemy that opened the door to the devil but for a lot of believers, it can be any sin. Anytime we break the word of God and refuse to repent, we will be judged and handed over to the devil
When you are handed over to the devil, affliction and judgement will cling to your aura through the crack that you created. That is why it is very important for us to live by every word that comes out of the mouth of God. If you do not put on the complete armor of God, your aura will be cracked and you will have less protection. You need to put on the armor of light.
Learn how to obey God. Put on the whole counsel of the word of God which is your white garment. Learn how to constantly protect your aura by keeping away from anything that displeases God. When you live that way, your faith will be a living faith and the Holy Spirit will fill you up, lead you and be your constant living reality.
Message about the importance of constantly walking and living in the perfect will of God in order to be constantly filled with the glory of God and be victorious.
Message about the importance of praying to God with a pure heart
Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
2 Timothy 2:22
Judge[not, that you be not judged
Matthew 7:7
Judge not, that you be not judged. Pray for the weak, confused, lonely, sick, impoverished and fearful. It is by grace that we stand. Form a habit of praying for people and lifting them up with your words and prayers. Constant criticism, mockery and belittling penetrates and shatters the soul. Let love rule.
When you form the habit of praying for others and putting yourself in their shoes, you will find it easier to love, and lift up instead of judging.
A lot of people are suffering psychologically because the people that were closest to them took delight in harming them with words and verbally assaulting and abusing them. There is always a positive way the uplift someone. The Bible says that our words should always impart grace to the hearers. Words can offer emotional support and words have the power to heal our minds and emotions. Words can be soothing to the soul. Words can dilute fear, hopelessness and anxiety.
Self knowledge and self awareness is very important because that is how we destroy and get rid of pride. Once you realize that it is by grace that you stand, and that without CHRIST you can do nothing, and that man’s power is of no use at all, then, you will stop judging and criticizing others.
Every good and perfect present comes from God. It is wisdom for us not to judge others and mock them. It is only Christ that produces good fruits in us, so be thankful and pray for those who might fall short in areas that you are good in because we all have faults.
There are some faults that you also have, and you will not want to be made a mockery of because you are not perfect – no one is perfect. We must stop childishness and embrace maturity and wisdom. LOVE can only rule through wisdom and maturity in the word of God.
Choose your friends wisely. The company you meet matters. Iron sharpens iron. Be friends with those who will not mislead you. Biblical figures and examples followed this principle. Jesus, Paul and David followed this rule. Your close friends should be God fearing.
If you want your aura and white garment to remain clean and sparkling, stay away from people who are cruel and hate God. Also stay away from them for your own protection because they cannot be trusted.
We often depend on ourselves when all we need to do is depend on God for more grace and help. God knows our weaknesses, struggles, failures, pains and disappointments. He is our comforter, and ardently wants to help us by giving us all the grace that we need for this present life.
Our flesh and the distractions of this world deter us and imprison us in a world of self struggle and self dependence. We must struggle against sin, but not by our own power. Our struggle must be done with the help of the Holy Spirit. He is our helper and comforter, so we need to give Him His place in our lives in total and absolute surrender.
To the brave ones
Who dare to love
Others
In all circumstances
Keep loving
And never
Give up
Love is the oil
That binds all
Humans together
Love is life
And life is love
And about loving
Brave ones
Living in a cold
And cruel world
Keep loving
And never give up
Message
Sometimes, love is difficult, not convenient and comfortable. Most of the time, it requires effort, sacrifice, diligence, duty, loyalty and commitment. We must make up our minds to love others with the commitment and devotion of Christ. We must be committed to love with the grace the comes through Christ.
It is not about comfort or convenience but about duty, loyalty and commitment. Regardless of who it is – spouse, children, siblings, parents, friends or the wider community, we should try to love others the way we expect them to love us and be good to us. No human loves or expects evil from others but are quick to be stingy at love and give out selfishness and evil.
The Bible commands us to owe others nothing but love. We owe others love – period. Love is our high calling, devotion, duty, and life. It is a commitment of the will that shuns and shies away from convenience and comfort. Love is sacrifice and hard work. We don’t love because it is convenient or comfortable and God made it that way to test and examine us.
My dear friends, let us all make effort to love always for that is our high calling in Christ. May great grace be upon us always to live and love like Christ.
