Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith & in purity. Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching & teaching. (1 Timothy 4:12-13). Timothy was a young pastor. It would have been easy for older Christians to look down on him because of his youth. He had to earn the respect of his elders by setting an example in his speech, life, purity, love & faith. Regardless of your age, God can use you. Whether you are young or old, don't think of your age as a handicap. Live so others can see Christ in you. They will be inspired to follow your example as you follow the example of Christ. The Kingdom of God will eventually enter into their hearts. Jesus Christ will become Lord & Saviour of their lives. Christian CHARACTER is key, if we are going to be effective in ministry & business. Devote yourself to prayer & to the Word of God. Meet God in His Word daily & act upon His Word. This way, you will grow spiritually; your faith will be strengthened; you will live a life of holiness, you will become closer & closer to God. You will become a mature, dedicated, committed, fruitful Christian. Thank you Jesus. Good morning Holy Spirit. Prayer: Father, let Your Holy Spirit help us to cultivate Christian character in our lives. Help us to set an example which others can see & be inspired to get saved. Align our words to Your Word. Align our lives to Your Word. Make us spiritual models. Thank you Jesus for hearing & answering my prayer. In Jesus mighty name we pray & believe, Amen.  Grace & peace be with you.

 This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds & write them on their hearts. I will be their God, & they will be My people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying: Know the Lord, because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest. (Hebrews 8:10-11). If our hearts are not changed, following God's rules will be unpleasant & difficult.  We will rebel against being told how to live the Christian way. The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles. The Holy Spirit reminds us of Christ's words, activates our ...

 The Lord will punish with His sword, His fierce, great & powerful sword. Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent: He will slay the monster of the sea. (Isaiah 27: 1). This chapter is about deliverance of Israel. God has a day in which He is going to judge all of us in regards to sin & righteousness. Some may say: we have been hearing about judgement since we were young, we do not think that this is true. Let me answer you this way: it is written: The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but everyone to come to REPENTANCE. The day of the Lord will come like a thief. I urge you all: Once connected to God through Christ, stay connected, so that you will be ready all the time. How do we prepare on a personal level? Read or study His Word daily, digest it, internalize it, obey its principles & pass it on to others so that they too may be saved & delivered as we are. ...
