Multiplying Favor and Growing A Good Reputation

Let Love And Faithfulness
Never Leave You;
Intentionally Hang Them Like A Necklace Around Your Neck
For Everyone To See
Inscribe These On Your Heart
Watch God's Favor and A Good Reputation
Become Your Prize.
Inspired By Proverbs 3:3-4

There is something supernatural about God's love being allowed to grow up from within us that we can actually let happen. The same is true of integrity or faithfulness. Once a person becomes a Christ-Follower, by turning from sin to salvation as we place our faith in Jesus, God's truly amazing grace begins to influence our lives.  All we have to do is daily surrender to the Almighty to let this happen.

God's new Eternal Covenant makes this clear:  Check out Hebrews 9:12 and learn how God cleanses us from our sins "once and for all" and eternally.  Examine Hebrews 10:10 to see how God actually makes us holy.  Or what about Hebrews 10:14 and following how God makes us "perfect" in God's sight.  Or so says the NIV translation.  But God does not stop there.  The Holy Spirit speaks and adds that God writes the laws on our hearts and puts them into our minds.  In other words God transforms us.  It really is "a God thing." 

So, how are we to respond? We are to let it happen.  In this scripture, we are informed clearly that we can let God's love grow up within us.  We can let faithfulness or integrity also bear it's fruit.  We can cooperate with God by letting these character traits be lived out in front of everyone for everyone to see. We can let them be indelibly be etched on our hearts, and it is then we can watch God's favor abound and our reputation be clearly noted by all the people that are around.

My questions regarding all this are, "What are we going to let happen today? What spirituality are we going to hold on to? What are we going to intentionally  hold out there for all the world to see? Are we going to yield to our loving God and Creator to inscribe these character traits, and more,  on our hearts? Are we going to then benefit from God's favor and our new opportunities to relate to others as the God's light in this dark world?    These are some good question to ponder. Yes, they are good questions indeed.  What are our answers?

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
