I want to make sure that you have the tools to be awake spiritually. Many Christians are just walking through life blind. Oh, they are going to heaven alright. The Bible promises heaven, eternal life, foretells of the Lordās millennium reign, and promises of the eternal new heavens and new earth, but 98% of this Bible has to do with this planet and the how the people who live in it should conduct themselves.Ā
Relationships
Speak Life
Be strong and very courageous that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn not from it to the right hand or to the left. Why? Why do you need to follow the Word of God? That you may prosper wherever you go. This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; didnāt say heart, didnāt say soul, it said mouth? Why? Because the Bible says out of the heart – out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh.
Keys to Successful Relationships
My position is for all victims to be removed immediately until someone decides where their treasure is.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Luke 12:34
This is true whether the victim is an friend, husband, wife or the child. We are not going to play games with victimization. The tragedy is just too high a price to pay. If we had taken a stand at this level against victimization a long time ago, we would not have the tragedies and post traumatic issues it is causing today. You cannot go back into a victimization situation in the name of love. It is codependent. It is further victimization. It is built-in guilt and you will not be able to have your peace. No one is spiritually strong enough to be a door mat for this type of thing and survive it for long. Remember my definition of codependency? Calling evil good in the name of love.
The Foundation is Love
[tweet_dis]Love is not based on experience, but on the Word of God.[/tweet_dis]Ā āMy loveā¦ her loveā¦ their loveā¦ā but does it match Godās identity, which is love?Ā Agape love meaning affection, benevolence, and a desire. Another rendition of the definitions is āa love feastā. Love isnāt just the words āI Love You.ā If you are going to be a ālove feastā for others, you need to be willing to serve someone in love whatever they need at a particular time. When love is residing in your heart, you have a want, a passion, a desire to do good to others, and to see them blessed, regardless of your feelings.
What’s Love Got to do with it?
This teaching from theĀ For My LifeĀ® program helps us better understand what Unloving spirits really are. The Unloving spirit is one of the most common and widespread spiritual afflictions of mankind, yet it is usually not recognized. Unloving spirits cause us to dislike ourselves and withdraw from others.We must realize that these feelings and conclusions about ourselves are neither normal nor inevitable, but rather, the effect of spirits which God does not want in our lives.
