Great Pride often comes before a fall...
WORD OF THE DAY!
Lust of the eyes; Lust of Flesh; and
....The Pride of Life
"Obedience is better!"
"A Tongue"
controls the words coming out of your mouth which can equal your Destiny or Defeat
"A Weapon of Mass Destruction"
- WMD ~
The Tongue gives choice to speak anything into existence even the desires of our heart.
Negative Words are very detrimental it can be the curse to change the entire trajectory of your life I see them as the Artillery a thought in your mind but once its out of your mouth goes straight into the Wind
It carries your words straight to GODS EARs! Once it leaves your lips what you say is a prayer of petition. That's why you pray in the Name of Jesus Christ, it's a done deal. "Be Careful What You Pray for, You Just Might Get It!"
Positive Words you speak can uplift your character and encourage you during any test its like currency (money) which increases
Positive Words you speak can uplift your character and encourage you during any test its like currency (money) which increases
"Faith"
Strength for the journey (the footwork) towards your Destiny
Be Still and Wait
Trust GODs Timing
Trust GODs Timing
If you have a conscious mind to listen before you speak, ears that can hear and never allow other people negative thoughts or perceptions of you become your reflection ....
Hebrews 4:12-13Amplified Bible (AMP)
12 For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the [a]breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.
13 And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, naked and defenseless to the eyes of Him with Whom we have to do.
So many people are suffering and small businesses are collapsing due to the manipulation of men. We can all enjoy prosperity it's more than enough in this world. Please you radical haters don't believe I'm a flaming socialist because that's so not true, I love you too and want you to prosper in life. Be comfortable and know we can all exist and enjoy our portion. Problem is everybody wants to be in control or to control authority even to bargain with GOD based on the size of your tithe. I believe the book of Acts illustrates how GOD views that ritual, all of it belongs to Him if he wants it all back give it to Him... And by no means take all the credit for achievements accomplished because GOD is a jealous GOD he loves shout outs. Why cause it helps the doubters believe in An Infinite power so yes He'll bring up Men inspired to do good i.e., T.D.Jakes, as most leaders He has raised up the real ones will stand out above the ones who are false put it this way, Bishop is God's Man. So if I had to come under a Man of God as Pastor he mine... I've learned so much about being a wholesome christian, some days I don't even believe how much GOD has moved in my path to demonstrate that I'm not running nothing. I had spiritual constipation because I wanted to pray then take the credit for the achievement.
Hebrews 6:17-20Amplified Bible (AMP)
17 Accordingly God also, in His desire to show more convincingly and beyond doubt to those who were to inherit the promise the unchangeableness of His purpose and plan, intervened (mediated) with an oath.
18 This was so that, by two unchangeable things [His promise and His oath] in which it is impossible for God ever to prove false or deceive us, we who have fled [to Him] for refuge might have mighty indwelling strength and strong encouragement to grasp and hold fast the hope appointed for us and set before [us].
19 [Now] we have this [hope] as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul [it cannot slip and it cannot [a]break down under whoever steps out upon it—a hope] that reaches [b]farther and enters into [the very certainty of the Presence] within the veil,
20 Where Jesus has entered in for us [in advance], a Forerunner having become a High Priest forever after the order (with [c]the rank) of Melchizedek.
Bishop T.D. Jakes preached about this series topic "Submission;" (Pastor's sermon was more inspiring) see TD Jakes on YouTube it might be in his library.
Living in these days that's seems absurd people automatically think it's weakness, but I beg you People of Faith or searching for an answer; He illustrates how the people building the tower of Babel tongues were confounded; King David indiscretions by taking advantage of his power in sleeping with another mans Urieh 's wife Bathsheba. Who slept at his front door, instead of going home to be with his wife, committed and loyal to King David's throne. Conspired to cover up the adultery then orchestrating his death sending him to battle on the front line as a means of covering up the crime..
The cover up is always worse than the crime! Everyone is down with that in this day in time and GOD still watching and if he corrected King David who worshiped and adored GOD, who are we as a Nation that should get away free?
WORDS of MASS Destruction is the cause of many maladies cause problems... Wickedness is inbred meaning that we all have sinned and do so on a daily basis it has no color basis.
As Human beings we need to stop beating up on one another and trying to make one feel that perfection exist. It doesn't in this dimension. It exists, but we all must atone even you my friend. We may fellowship but each person is accountable by knowing GOD for yourself; with Jesus as your advocate in Heaven meaning you must come to a point in your life to accept Christ in your heart is a intimate decision. That's definitely a case by case basis.
Yet not one of us even my Bishop can claim perfection this is what we strive for into eternity. WMD is the tongue once we learn to control it and LOVE one another color won't matter..... not one bit! Speak LIFE to loved ones and friends instead of lies, rumors, and gossip. Stop trying to straighten out someone else's business and work on your own. My take on it is that even during these hard times unemployment rising, foreclosures, homelessness; the celebrity sites are booming with gossip about this celeb and that rap artist.. In other words even if the grass looks greener in your friends backyard just stay focus on you and water the grass in your own yard. Put energy into showing respect for others and a kind word from time to time.

Well, most of those terrible things that are taking place in our homeland today I believe not what nobody done said is of how we treat our fellow Americans and take much for granted. con't below;
It's just this simple if you can't say anything nice; don't say nothing at all. Those unkind words, thoughts, which become deeds could hurt someone you love or care about.
We learn how to "Compromise"
Footnote* Debate is healthy when you debate facts surrounding problems in order to achieve a common goal that benefits all not just a few.
America is a land full of immigrants and most of these people against immigration and President Obama neglect this fact we all traveled by boat to get here all races except the AZTEC, Comanche, Navajo, Black Foot, nameless Native American tribes all on reservations in this country in poverty as we speak... now they're flaming more division by talking of repealing the 14th Amendment. GOD is all over our pledge of allegiance, Declaration of Independence; Constitution, and saved the best for last our Money
"In GOD We Trust,"
Hateful speeches and puppet dolls dangling to disrespect our first African American President Obstructing our government by withholding a congressional vote in order to benefit only 1 group of individuals. I was listening to the figures of what the companies would have to pay based on profit level of small business $400 pays $12k more in taxes once tax cuts expire so they rather see this country collapse instead of vote to give small businesses help which would help the really small businesses 1 man entrepreneurs hire helpers Americans who take money directly to retailers for cars, clothes, this is the average worker the major consumer's. Sending jobs overseas is their policy in order to give away $millions in bonuses yet they upset about expiring tax cuts and paying higher taxes, I struggle to get to work pay check to paycheck and living in a modest small room. But I thank GOD for it as if it were a mansion and will continue to give Him praises & honor for all that I have life, liberty, and a chance to achieve prosperity.
I leaned my lesson by being humble, and controlling the words the flow out of my mouth, and better than that how I treat and approach others. That's not easy everyday. I still cuss... All kidding aside. So this might seem preachy, political, and OMG how dare she go there to those who know me but if you live long enough you pray hard enough GOD can and will change your life if you really seek to serve Him, I'm always praying for Him to keep me humble enough to be led and taught by good leaders raised up by Him. That I have the strength to come under authority let somebody love me and take some risk by faith, speak life into your life and the lives of others stop being so hateful if you can't help a brother out as a hand up don't say a negative comment ~ and for those who feel pitiful or pity others stop that, speak life over that person, you too are highly favored and truly blessed even when you can't see it! Doesn't mean I trust every human being that crosses my path but I can be more patient and understanding while they are journeying onward and if I can assist in anyway be willing if GOD makes me able or given me enough to do the right by others. A hand up not a hand out.. theirs a difference.
Take time before you speak to understand the power you hold; you may consider it as insignificant. The way words may come across to whatever group of people you hang out with ( your inner circle or outer circle) that value your opinion{s}. Be mindful that when you prophesy or project negative words then later to find out it came around.
Speak life to some body's life, and be encouraging. Learn how to step out on faith when a situation appears hopeless; learn to stop hating long enough to listen and discern what makes sense vs. what is just mean spirited; ignorance; or plain old wasted energy. These are the people who believe in the same Jesus I believe in yet they forget is last commandment "

John 15:1-16Amplified Bible (AMP)
15 I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vine dresser.
2 Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit [that stops bearing] He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and richer and more excellent fruit.
3 You are cleansed and pruned already, because of the word which I have given you [the teachings I have discussed with you].
4 Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.
5 I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
6 If a person does not dwell in Me, he is thrown out like a [broken-off] branch, and withers; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If you live in Me [abide vitally united to Me] and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
8 When you bear (produce) much fruit, My Father is honored and glorified, and you showand prove yourselves to be true followers of Mine.
9 I have loved you, [just] as the Father has loved Me; abide in My love [[a]continue in His love with Me].
10 If you keep My commandments [if you continue to obey My instructions], you will abide in My love and live on in it, just as I have obeyed My Father’s commandments and live on in His love.
11 I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joyand gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing.
12 This is My commandment: that you love one another [just] as I have loved you.
13 No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection] than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends.
14 You are My friends if you keep on doing the things which I command you to do.
15 I do not call you servants (slaves) any longer, for the servant does not know what his master is doing (working out). But I have called you My friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from My Father. [I have revealed to you everything that I have learned from Him.]
16 You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain, abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as [b]presenting all that I Am], He may give it to you.
and lastly, this how I can prove what you speak out of your mouth goes to God's ears.

**Colossians 3
Amplified Bible (AMP)
3 If then you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, thus sharing His resurrection from the dead], aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
2 And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth.
3 For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in [the splendor of His] glory.
5 So kill (deaden, [a]deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members [those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that is employed in sin]: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).
6 It is on account of these [very sins] that the [holy] anger of God is ever coming upon the sons of disobedience (those who are obstinately opposed to the divine will),
7 Among whom you also once walked, when you were living in and addicted to [such practices].
8 But now put away and rid yourselves [completely] of all these things: anger, rage, bad feeling toward others, curses and slander, and foulmouthed abuse and shameful utterances from your lips!
9 Do not lie to one another, for you have stripped off the old (unregenerate) self with its evil practices,
10 And have clothed yourselves with the new [spiritual self], which is [ever in the process of being] renewed and remolded into [fuller and more perfect [b]knowledge upon] knowledge after the image (the likeness) of Him Who created it.
11 [In this new creation all distinctions vanish.] There [c]is no room for and there can be neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, [nor difference between nations whether alien] barbarians or Scythians [[d]who are the most savage of all], nor slave or free man; but Christ is all and in all [[e]everything and everywhere, to all men, without distinction of person].
12 Clothe yourselves therefore, as God’s own chosen ones (His own picked representatives), [who are] purified and holy and well-beloved [by God Himself, by putting on behavior marked by] tenderhearted pity and mercy, kind feeling, a lowly opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, [and] patience [which is tireless and long-suffering, and has the power to endure whatever comes, with good temper].
13 Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a difference (a grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has [freely] forgiven you, so must you also [forgive].
14 And above all these [put on] love and enfold yourselves with the bond of perfectness [which binds everything together completely in ideal harmony].
15 And let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state] to which as [members of Christ’s] one body you were also called [to live]. And be thankful (appreciative), [giving praise to God always].
16 Let the word [spoken by] Christ (the Messiah) have its home [in your hearts and minds] and dwell in you in [all its] richness, as you teach and admonish and train one another in all insight and intelligence and wisdom [in spiritual things, and as you sing] psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, making melody to God with [His] grace in your hearts.
17 And whatever you do [no matter what it is] in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus and in [dependence upon] His Person, giving praise to God the Father through Him.
**Keep striving for perfection cause even when you fail or succeed. Promises from the Grace of GOD
**By Faith you can wake up to live another day don't quit just try, try again.....be Mindful of the"Words", - that come out of your mouth and the deeds that follow, negative words bring on a bad day; positive words, bring about a better attitude towards yourself and others so smile find the pathway to brighter days.........
Peace and God Bless
