Those who love to have or have money don't wait nor see any reason to wait
More because the ethics of money itself forbid "WAITING"
Nobody waits for money and have it — none!
Meanwhile, the only way to see God is by waiting on Him, staying at His door, watching for Him
PEACE
Money answers all THINGS as God answers all PEOPLES — both are masters
Those who prefer money acknowledging it usually defer God, they deter God's work
Loving to have money is hating to see God, in fact, such don't see reasons to WAIT
Adam and Eve fell for its wisdom, Gen 3:6
Serpent offered them — Adam and his wife, an alternative to waiting on God
"You don't have to wait for God all the time", Serpent retorted, all you need and need God for, is wisdom
Take some "money" in your pocket
And Adams saw that money was a good alt to God, then took it
The serpent came asking Adam's wife a very cunning question — Did God really say you must not eat at all??
Because it observed that Adam and his wife were not using their FREEWILL command and were always WAITING on GOD for directives
So it asked, Did God say, Don't eat at all?
@Row_Haastrup Communion is a meal, not wavers
At the Upper room where the Lord established it Himself, it took place after they had sup, eaten
Going through the book of Acts, brothers entered one another's houses and sat to eat and blessed God for the fellowship
See, let people eat first
The woman saw how beautiful the tree was and how good its fruit would be to eat, and she thought how wonderful it would be to become wise. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, and he also ate it, Gen 3:6 GNT
MONEY teaches NEVER to WAIT!!
@Ihunanya_chi Eternal life is God's own life, differs from the animalistic, perishing human life
It's given through Jesus, Son of God
The process of having this everlasting eternal life is "Second birth"
God must give birth to you!
All you really need is believing God can birth you, pray
Anywhere money rules, there also is poverty — 616
Poverty actually is the emptiness you feel everytime there's no money and leaves you feeling you can do nothing!!
It doesn't matter whether you're rich or poor, so far you think money FIRST you're under the yoke of poverty, 666
The whole theory behind the mark "666" or say "616" is their coming FIRST to mind
Read, Rev 13:1-18
If what prompts your heart as "forethought" or motivates you to work hard is MONEY and not directives from GOD or HOLY SPIRIT, my friend, you already have the mark — technically
When Judas eventually lost his office and bishopric, God threw it open to everyone
Though physically, Matthias was chosen to replace him, that office of holding money for God now belongs to everybody
The 12th apostle is money — always with you
Iscariot's place became desolate
Judas Iscariot held the 12th office of Christ — for money and treasures, but ended up misappropriating funds, even betraying His master for 30 pieces of silver
That's what happens when money comes first or foremost in your thoughts — betrayals
Those who LOVE to be RICH do FALL
@AiG This should also caution us not to "marry out" our children, collecting dowry-money in exchange for a life well preserved by God
For at the resurrection, marrying will no longer be necessary — Matt 22:30
Meanwhile, for every female child knit, there's a male child born
@VaticanNews John and Jesus were cousins, six months apart in age difference and had same calling, speaking "Repent, for the kingdom of God is near" — both died young
What a tragedy with a sweet sound of hope
May we have a determined, violent generation as theirs, in Jesus name 🙏
@TheYorubaTimes "Religiosity" is really killing our fellowship
Immature politicians who haven't learned to separate their religion or religious beliefs from our necessary humanity should not also be considered for political offices
God will help us
Hell is part of the earth structure, God created the earth with HELL in the middle of it
Abusers and non-replenishers of the planet Earth will someday face the consequences of their own actions
They'll be detained — soul and body in the heart of the earth, for full recompense
Job said:
“I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman.” — Job 31:1 (NIV)
There comes a point where you must stop negotiating with the things that are destroying your purity.
You cannot keep feeding your eyes with pornography and expect your heart to remain pure.
You cannot continually entertain lustful images and expect your thoughts to remain clean.
You cannot keep returning to the same websites, accounts, conversations and videos and then wonder why the same temptation keeps coming back.
You must make a decision.
Close the page.
Delete the video.
Unfollow the account.
Leave the conversation.
Put the phone down.
Run from the temptation.
The Bible says:
“Flee from sexual immorality.” — 1 Corinthians 6:18 (NIV)
And Jesus said:
“But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” — Matthew 5:28 (NIV)
Your eyes are a gate.
Be careful what you give access to your heart through that gate.
Not every picture deserves your attention.
Not every video deserves your view.
Not every account deserves your follow.
Not every desire deserves to be entertained.
You are not powerless.
By the grace of God, you can say NO.
You can walk away.
You can shut it down.
You can guard your heart.
You can pursue holiness.
Make a covenant with your eyes.
What you refuse to entertain today can protect your purity tomorrow.
Guard your eyes. Guard your mind. Guard your heart. Guard your walk with God.
