FROM CHURCH TO HELL FIRE

What happened to Ananias and Saphira should serve as a good lesson to every child of God. Christians have developed the tendency of grading or classifying sins into various categories. There is this erroneous belief that some sins are more sinful than others and the lighter ones can be overlooked by God. Wheather it is the sin of adultery or fornication, stealing or murder, lying or un forgiveness, God hates sin with a perfect hatred. Sin is sin before God and should be resisted with all seriousness. The sin of this couple was not stinginess; neither was it holding back part of the money. They had the right to keep back part of it for their own use because the money belonged to them. But they did not admit that they kept back some. They lied to God and his people. They wanted to make themselves appear more generous they really were. They were dishonest. Theirs was a premeditated act and not a slip.
Lying Is so prevalent in our society that it has come to be regarded as normal or convenient way of getting out of a difficult situation. People talk of political lie, business lie, social lie, white lie, etc. which ever coloration it is given, a lie is a leading, and all liars back stabbed, back bitters etc are bound for hell fire. It is better to tell the truth and receive punishment than to tell a lie and go free. Ananias and his wife dropped dead in the church for their sin of lying. The various events that are recorded in the Bible are for our benefit to warn us who live at the tine when this age is drawing to a close (1COR.10:11). Be warned.

Be love Heaven is real hell is real the choice is yours.

PRIDE

BECAUSE YOUR HEART IS LIFTED UP, AND YOU SAY, I AM A GOD, I SIT IN THE SEAT OF GOD'S, IN THE MIDST OF THE SEAS: YET YOU ARE A MAN AND NOT A god: THO YOU SET YOUR HEART AS THE HEART OF A god. EZEKIEL 28:2

Pride is that evil nature which makes a man feel bigger than what he is. When a man feels that he's more important than others: other people are are irrelevant ; the evil spirit of pride is in operation. Many feel they can achieve whatever they want without the assistant of God their creator. And that whatever they possess is just by their self effort. That is nothing other than priden and it is an act of wickedness before God (1Samuel 2:3).
       The Almighty God, the Creator of all things He holds the life of every one in His hand: and no one can query Him. He is unquestionable. That is why you have to live a kind of life that pleases Him.
One of the behaviour that God hates is pride. As a matter of truth, God resists the proud (James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:5). God proclaimed His judgement through prophet Ezekiel against the king of Tyre, who was so proud and disgraced the Almighty by placing himself in the position of a god Ezekiel 28:2-5), forgetting the fact that, all he had was given to him by the Almighty : including his life.
       Beloved as you ask God to bless you in all aspects of life, the grace to always acknowledge the supremacy and greatest of God (1 Chronicles 29:10-16). Like David. Pride links a man with destruction. Pro 16:18, 18:12

HIS WORD

THOSE THINGS WHICH YE HAVE LEARNED AND RECIEVED AND HEARD AND SEEN IN ME, DO; AND THE GOD OF PEACE SHALL BE WITH YOU. PHILLIPIANS 4:9 How much of the Bible do you know? It is greatest book ever written. Your only real hope rest totally on the Bible which is the word of God. However, God takes His word, not human speculation or opinions and sets us apart from the world to himself. We are set apart for God's special use. Therefore, our value, goals and behaviours are distinct from that of the world. The world of God sanctifies us as we study, meditate memorize and apply it truth to our daily life. The holy Spirit uses it to make us aware of sin, confess it and repent. He takes the word and reveals God's perfect will for our lives. We grow in His grace through the knowledge of His word. Scriptures and Bible study provides us with better understanding of God character. Jesus said it is written, that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of God (Luke 4:4). However His peace will not reside in us until we apply His word to our daily life. You must live by truth, which God has already revealed. If you understand the need for thankfulness, prayer, forgiveness, repentance or a Christ centered love for others you must strive to know him better through his word, and remember to take what we know and put it into practice.

DREAM KILLER

Joseph was destined for greatness, and this was revealed to him early in life through is dreams. While God has His plans for the young man, the devil also had his own plans. But God's plan will always overshadow those of the devil. His brothers were jealous and thought that by selling him off into slavery in a foreign land, they would be able to stop God from fulfilling His plans for Joseph on the contrary, they conspired and got the "nuisance" out of the way. But even in faraway Egypt, God was with Joseph. After passing through many bitter experience, God was with Joseph. God took him to the position He had originally ordained for him. Like
Joseph many people have revealed their secret dreams to their enemies whom they thought were friends and those friends are now working hard to make sure those dreams do not come to pass. Many have been diverted away from God's purpose by the wicked because they were able to see the star. Many destinies have been caged by the witches and wizard and they could not be located. I pray that God will
 deliver you today from the hand of such unfriendly friends in Jesus Mighty Name (Amen). SCRIPTURES And when they saw him afar off, even before He came near to them, they conspired against him to slay him and they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer comes. Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, some evil
beast has devoured him. And we shall see what will
become of his dreams. Genesis 37:18-20 SCRIPTURES For is anger endureth but a moment,weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning Psalm 3:5.

TROUBLES OF LIFE

The way you handle that troubles will determine the kind of winner you become. If God want you to do something and you are not doing it He will start up troubles for you. Job 14:1 says man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of troubles. MYSTERY OF TROUBLES 1) life is not simple at all. 2) life is not a hundred meter race. It's journey 3)The trouble that comes your way is an assert. 4)There is a mystery to the trouble we go through. 5)Every difficulty as an opportunity and every opportunity as a difficulty. 6)Trouble is a part of life and brings out all our talents. 7)Without cross their is no crown. 8)You are not finish when you go through troubles you are finished when you surrender.9)You may not be in trouble because you are a sinner but because you are a treat to the enemies. 10) Your life is different because your destiny is different. 11)There are no two people under the sun that have the same trouble. 12) There's no trouble that is above God. 13) Troubles drives people to success it drives people to their breakthrough. Beloved when you have a powerful enemy they make you stronger. I want you to know that many things God wants to do in our life's are waiting in heaven uncollected because the level we are is not strong enough to handle those things. THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO WHEN YOU ARE IN TROUBLE 1) Bitterness 2) You must not fall apart. 3) Anger 4) You must not hate anyone 5) Do not give up. 6) Backslide 7) Do not make negative statement about yourself. 8) Never be discouraged. Beloved the trouble that you
are is a signal that your life is a treat, a treat to some powers & personalities.

BE FREE

MAN THAT IS BORN OF WOMAN IS FEW DAYS AND FULL OF TROUBLES JOB 14:1 Are you facing any trouble? Day and night? I congratulate you. It is a sign that you are still alive. The dead can not give account of their day or tell stories. The fact that people are talking about you and saying terrible things about you is evidence that you are moving forward. The only place where someone can be free of trouble and nobody will bother him at all is the cemetary. Beloved, it is not the problem that faces you that matters but the way you handle it. What you do with your life is more important than what life does to you. The way out of your trouble is always the way through it. There is no trouble that is beyond the power of God. Therefore, with God all things are possible. You will surely level your mountain in Jesus name (Amen). In the mist of Adversity, God speaks through Isaiah to for tell of renewal, revival and a flourishing time to come. however bad the people of God's present situation, the future before them is incredibly bright and secure for the reunion of Zion with ways of God brings material and spritual blessings. God establishes the disciple of His people in His righteousness. God is in the recovery and reproduction business and he want us to live in the light of His resurrection promises. We can, because
he promised to guard us in His righteousness and keep us secure.

DO NOT GO AWAY

All SCRIPTURES IS GIVEN BY INSPIRATION OF GOD, AND IS PROFITABLE FOR DOCTRINE, FOR REPROOF,FOR CORRECTION,FOR INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS. 2 Timothy 3:16 God has given us is word for our own good. Every section of it is relevant and beneficial to us. It us not in our best interest to be selective or discriminatory concerning which part to pay attention to and which part to reject. God gave is word by inspiration and we must accept it the way it is because He knows what is good for us. Some of it may appear hard, but that is all our hard heart need to fully equipped for every good thing God want us to do. Truth can be offensive to a person who is not ready to accept it. Many people have different reasons for identifying with the Lord, and a lot of these followers are motivated by selfish desire. As Jesus started preaching the "hard truth" many of His disciples turn away and left Him. They wanted Him to tell them what they wanted to hear. And it is sad to note that many of our present day preachers have fallen into that trap. They preach what will please their listeners so that they will not go away. Jesus was not bothered. He turned to the twelve Disciples and ask them will you also go away? Peter answered, To whom shall we go? You have all we need. There is none like You in all
the earth. As a loving caring, and responsible father, God has given us His word to guide us, teach us His word to guide us, teach us, correct us, and rebuke us so that we do not become wayward and rebellious children heading for destruction. Feed regularly on the bread of life...it is good for your health;no matter how hard it is to your flesh, do not go away.

EXAMINE YOURSELF

WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND? GOD FORBID. HOW SHALL WE, THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN, LIVE ANY LONGER THEREIN? ROMANS 6:1-2 You might not understand the "whys" or the how of what you are passing through now. But just like Job honoured God, so you should as well, and in the end God will honour you. We never know when we are in the midst of our pain and suffering what the source is or who is to blame.Our response shouls mirror Job's trust in God and believe He will use your pain to bring about His perfect will in your life. Always remember everything has repercussions, the sin of Adam and eve flow through mankind. When Abraham refused to wait for his Isaac, the repercussions flow through. This I say then, walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led off the Spirit,ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest. Is God good? Yes! We can see and feel His goodness all around us. Then why does evil exist all around us today? It is as a result of our disobedience to God's Commands

THE GIFT OF GOD

WHEREFORE I PUT THEE IN REMEMBRANCE THAT THOU STIR UP THE GIFT OF GOD WHICH IS IN THEE BY THE PUTTING OF MY HANDS. 2TIMOTHY1:6 Stirring up the gift of God is similar to stirring God's power at work in a person's life for the perfection of the saints. "God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame" beloved; there is something in you that can put your shame to shame if only you will discover that thing. We all have talents and abilities. A key to usefulness is making our talents available to God. Your talents may be building friendship! engaging conversations, answering questions, inspiring people, or telling stories. God certainly can use those. It is pathetic today that most believers are carrying God's gifts in them! Many believers are not aware of the wonderful deposit of God 's gift in their lives, therefore these gifts are laying waste in their lives. The Bible says "A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men, Proverbs 18:16. Beloved, stir up the gift in you, put them to action! And people will see the glory of God in your life.

YOUR MOTIVATION

AND THROUGH I BESTOW ALL MY GOODS TO FEED THE POOR, AND THOUGH I GIVE MY BODY TO BE BURNED AND HAVE NOT CHARITY, IT PROFITETH ME NOTHING. 1 CORINTHIANS 13:3 The motive behind our gift is more important than the gift itself. If you give all of your goods to feed the poor, or if you make the ultimate sacrifice of giving your life for someone else, and is not motivated by love, your gift will profit you nothing. Many Christians give faithfully but never see the hundredfold return that the Lord promised because of wrong motives (Mark 10:29-30). God loves a cheerful giver not one who gives grudgingly or out of dept (2Corinthians 9:7). Jesus gave us the key to purifying our motives. Jesus said but when thou does not alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth Matthew 6:3. Giving in a manner in which you will not recieve recognition for your gifts will gurantee that your motives are right and grant you the true joy that comes through selfless giving Act 20:24. Ask the Lord to show you an opportunity today to give a kind word or a helping hand to someone who will not be able to repay you and others will never know about it. This could be a motorist in a traffic jam, a spouse, a child who won't even notice your kind deed, or any number of other people. Opportunities are all around us.
