    Separate Yourself

    We must separate ourselves from whatever is not like God. We must also separate ourselves unto God. This means that we most make ourselves only available to God. God uses people that have mad themselves available to him.

    2 Corinthians 6:17 "Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord...” God has always required His people to separate. He told Israel, “be ye holy, for I am Holy.” God knows that we become like, whoever and whatever we spend the most time with. God wants us to be like Him, ...read more

    Humble Yourself Series

    Humble life is part of a disciple, a command from the Lord himself. A proud heart is an abomination to the Lord, honour comes after humility.

    There is a reward to anyone who humbles before God. Peter insists that we humble in the hand of God and not before humans. Christian Scholar and author C. S. Lewis, said, "a proud man is always looking down on things and people;" As a result, such people lose the opportunity to serve ...read more

    We need to test (examine) ourselves and see if the attitudes of our heart, soul and mind are in perfect alignment with those of Jesus. What we do is as important as what we say!

    We have come to far to turn back now. We must examine our hearts so we can walk with the Lord and maintain that which He has begun in us! John knew walking with the Lord was not easy in the midst of continual opposition, but he also knew that faith would one day end in sight.

    “Watch Yourself” The salutation "to the chosen lady and to her children" most likely refers to a specific woman and her family. This letter was written shortly after 1 John to warn about false teachers. Little has changed in two thousand years. Advocates of unorthodox beliefs still exist ...read more
