We can speak in tongues and miss heaven.

We can "win souls" and miss heaven.

We can see vision and miss heaven.

We can prophesy and still miss heaven.

We can cast out devil and miss heaven.

We can perform miracles and still miss heaven.

We can read the whole Bible and miss heaven.

We can attend all church services, fellowship activities and camp meetings and miss heaven.

We can have anointing and miss heaven.

We can have all spiritual gifts and miss heaven.

We can be rich, prosperous and wealthy and still miss heaven.

We can give and sow seeds and still miss heaven.

We can wield power and be influential and still miss heaven.

We can have a powerful voice to sing and miss heaven.

But we cannot LIVE A HOLY LIFE and miss heaven.

HOLINESS IS THE REAL DEAL!

"Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God." (Leviticus 20:7)

"O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth." (Psalm 96:9)

"Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." (Hebrews 12:14)

Forwarding this is Evangelism. Let us win a soul for Christ. Amen!

ATTENTION LADIES;

You have been dating him for two years now and it has really been blissful, though not without the ups and downs of every relationship.

He treats you like a queen and worships the very ground you walk on. He loves and respects everyone around you and you know he is perfect for you.

He is really working hard to take you to the altar but he has financial constraints.

Everything seems to be going at a good pace but the whole story changed when you attend your friend's wedding.

Hmmm, what a wedding! The celebration was the talk of the town for months.

You are just getting over it when your friend calls to say that her hubby has just given her a brand new car.

You begin to think 'when will your fiancée make enough money for your wedding? Would he ever get you a car?

Things suddenly become slow in your eyes because your friend is married to a wealthy man.

Well, your friend invites you for a surprise birthday party she has organized for her hubby and that's it!

You get there and can't take your eyes off anything.

The cars at the garage, the flowers, the serene and beautiful environment, the leather sofas, the plasma tv, the sound system.

This must be heaven. You begin to despise your fiancée.

He lives in a bed-sitter with a few chairs, You try to do a comparison.
There's no point!

You get terribly angry,
Your eyes are rolling. Some of your hubby's friends are singles and your mind begins to suggest terrible things.

You try to ward it off but it comes stronger...

After the party, you find time to talk to your friend You start to complain about your fiancée.

You say things that are not so true because you have become impatient.

Your friend can see the handwriting on the wall and she offers to help. After all, what are friends for?

One of her hubby's friend is seriously searching for a good wife and she tries to matchmaker you. Good idea huh?

The new guy calls you and you start a relationship. so soon?. Then, you start to complain terribly about your fiancée.

Things that made you happy suddenly begin to pi**es you off, Little by little, you try to avoid his calls and he can sense it.

He sends his friends and family to plead with you and but you do not listen.

The new guy invites you over for a weekend and you are mad with excitement. You jump into a bus to see a man you do not know!

Safe journey oh,He comes to pick you at the motor park and takes you to his house! What a house??? This is your final bus stop!

You assure yourself that you won't miss this guy and he senses it, he sees the desperation in his eyes and he is frightened.

Minutes later, you get into the kitchen to prepare dinner and you eat together.

What a sumptuous meal! He applauds you and you are happy. You think you are winning him over. After a while, you start the mop the floors. Hmm, at night???

You won't even do that for your mother in the mornings. He tells you that the maid would do it but refuse. You do all the chores for him and at night you dress very seductively.

He is tempted and you guys have s*x! Hmm, what do you think you are doing? Having s*x with a man who's not legally married to you and worse still, one you barely know.

Hmm, when Its monday morning and he is almost begging you to leave.

When you finally agree to leave, you deliberately leave some of your clothes in his wardrobe because you have come to stay(Lmao).

He gives you some good cash on your way back and you are really overjoyed. You tell your mum to prepare to see her rich son in-law. (Story)

In the next few days, you begin to do all the calling. He starts to complain that he's too busy. But who wouldn't be too busy for a desperate girl like you?

When he reluctantly invites you again, you intensify your efforts.

You cook, clean, wash his clothes and give him s*x and more s*x. You do not even know so much about him except for the fact that he works in an oil company and his parents lives abroad.

You do not even want to hear any detail about any woman in his life.

You are pregnant after two months and you have mixed feelings. You do not know what his reactions might be, but you are sure you have something to hold him down.

But to your utmost surprise he doesn't want to hear of it and he says the baby isn't his. He screams and calls you all sort of names.

(What do you expect? You made yourself so cheap). You plead and plead but he wants an abortion, You are so confused.

You go for an abortion, and after a few weeks he calls you again. You feel very terrible but you forgive him.

You visit him unannounced only to find a girl in his house. You are so devastated and you leave.

When you call him to find out who the slt in his house is, he tells you she is his wife to be and no slut. He apologizes profusely. He has always tried to talk to you about her but you never listened.

He has always had a woman in his wife but they only had a misunderstanding and she was back.

You try to fight your way back but his mind is made up and you are the looser!

You go back to your fiance and he accepts you back. You are indeed lucky. Many girls are not as lucky as you are.

What do you think? Men are wicked huh? But don't you think girls are even more wicked? You abandon a man who has done so much for you because you hear a man is ready for marriage.

It just makes me wanna ask. 'What makes a man ready for marriage? If you think, it is only money, you have to think again!

A man can have a fat bank account and not be ready yet a man can have so little and be ready.

Don't sell your self cheaply because of money. The man who cannot afford a car today can buy ten tomorrow and the fact that your friend is getting married today doesn't mean you should be married today too.

There's time for everyone and everything!

John 16:33 says, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” God never promised that life would be fair, but He did promise that if you will stay in faith, He will take what’s meant for your harm and use it to your advantage. Nothing that’s happened to you is a surprise to God. He will give you the strength, the power and the grace to go through it.

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

READ STORY!!!*

Mr. Peter had a job interview to attend at 10am but his wife developed complications at 9am. He decided to take the wife to the hospital and leave for the interview thereafter but on their way to the hospital, the taxi broke down. It was already 10:30am before he could get another taxi.
He arrived the hospital at 11am, dropped the wife and used the same taxi to go for the interview. He arrived the interview venue at 12noon(2hours late).
He rang the bell but no one opened the door. Meanwhile, earlier at 10am, the company mail delivery had rang the bell but no one opened the door too. When the door was finally opened, Mr. Peter said "I'm sorry, I came... " he wanted to apologise for coming late, but the Secretary interrupted before he could finish his statement and ushered him to the Board Room. The Secretary said, "I apologise, Mr. Peter, for keeping you waiting since 10am. We actually heard when the bell rang at 10am but we were held up in a meeting with our company suppliers.
However, we have sat since 8am to deliberate on your job specification, your office and the salary."
Mr. Peter was baffled and said, "Ma'am, I haven't been interviewed yet’’. The MD answered him and said, "We decided not to conduct the interview at least to save time and also save the interviewees money on transport. So we looked at the papers for the most appropriate person we wanted and we opted for you. Also, we had tested your patience this morning by keeping you waiting intentionally for 2hrs. That's part of your interview. You won't be disappointed. You’ll be shown your office, your secretary and the
driver assigned to drive your company's allotted vehicle. You’ll be on probation for 2yrs."
He got the job!!!
On his way out, his phone rang and it was the wife. She said, "honey, I was delivered of a bouncing baby boy." It was their fifth child and the only male child. He immediately named the child 'Miracle'.
He got a double miracle same day. All the disappointments turned out to favour him. God positioned the mail delivery man to ring the bell at 10am.
God also held them up in the meeting until Mr. Peter arrived.
_Note:_ You might be held up by issues in your life and hope might be diminishing and you think the chance is gone. But you know what? God's waiting for you to release His favour.
So don't go back along the way. Don't quit. Don't be upset by what you face along the way. In fact, God has already deliberated on your specifications.
One more thing: You don't have to go through any interview, since you have all the qualifications God wants.
My prayers for you:
1. God will position somebody at the right place and the right time for you who will ring the bell in your favour.
2. God will turn all your disappointments to be a blessing for you.
3. Every positive meeting will end in your favour and every negative meeting will scatter in your favour.
May this be your portion.
Happy New Year and remain blessed beyond measure!

Isaiah 40:31New King James Version (NKJV)31 But those who wait on the LordShall renew their strength;They shall mount up...

Isaiah 40:31New King James Version (NKJV)

31 But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

The Story of an EAGLE:

The Eagle has the longest life-span of its species. It can live up to 70 years. But to reach this age, the eagle must make a very difficult decision!

In its 40th year, the eagle's long and flexible Talons can no longer grab a prey which serves as food. Its long and sharp beak becomes bent.

Its old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers, stick to its chest and make it difficult to fly.

Then, the eagle is left with only two options: DIE or go through a painful process of CHANGE!

This process lasts for 150 days (5 months).

The process requires the eagle to fly to a mountain top and sit on its nest. There the eagle knocks its beak against a rock until it plucks it out.

Then the eagle will wait for the new beak to grow back after which it will pluck out its talons. When its talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking its old aged feathers.

And after this the eagle takes its famous flight of rebirth and LIVES for 30 more years!!

Why is Change needed???

In order to survive and live.

We too have to start the change process.

We sometimes need to get rid of the unpleasant old memories, negative habits and our fixed mind set.

Only when freed from the past burdens can we take advantage of the present.

If an eagle can make a life saving and life changing decision at the age of 40, why can't we?

In order to take on a new journey ahead, let go of your negative old limiting beliefs.

Open up your mind and let yourself fly high like an eagle!

When it rains, all birds occupy shelter. But the EAGLE avoids the rain by flying above the clouds!

The problem is common to all but the attitude to solve it makes the difference.

Don't be afraid of change. Accept it gracefully.

My questions to you is this!

Do you want to fly with the eagles or scratch with the turkeys?

Over to you!

*I called this The Mystery of The Bible*

This is pretty strange how it worked out this way.
Even if you are not religious, you should read this

Q: What is the shortest chapter in the Bible?
A: *Psalm 117*

Q: What is the longest chapter in the Bible?
A: *Psalm 119*

Q: Which chapter is in the centre of the Bible?
A: *Psalm 118*

Facts: There are *594* chapters before Psalms *118.*
There are *594* chapters after *Psalms 118.*
Add these numbers up and you get *1188.*

Q: What is the centre verse in the Bible?
A: Psalm *118:8*

*Does this verse say something significant about God's perfect will for our lives?*
The next time someone says they would like to find God's perfect will for their lives and that they want to be in the centre of His will, just send them to the centre of His Word!

*Psalms 118:8 (NKJV)* says
"It is better to *trust in the LORD* than to put *confidence in man."*

Now isn't that odd how this worked out...or was God in the centre of it? SHALOM!

11/10/2016

*Nothing in nature lives for itself. Rivers do not drink their own water ; Trees do not eat their own fruits.The sun does not shine for itself; and Flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Jesus did not sacrifice for himself. Living for others is a rule of nature. We were all born to help each other. No matter how difficult the situation you find yourself in ; still do good to others.

Give Up
"I watched a local football match in a school playing ground. As I sat down, I asked one of the boys what the score was.
With a smile, he replied; "They are leading us 3-0" !
And I said, REALLY!!
I have to say you don't look discouraged.
"Discouraged?" the boy asked with a puzzled look ...
Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle?
I have confidence in the team and the managers; We shall definitely overcome!
Truly, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy's team!
He waved at me gently, with a beautiful smile as he left; I was amazed, mouth wide open; Such confidence; Such beautiful faith;
As I got back home that night, his question kept coming back to me:
"Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle?"
Life is like a game.
Why should you be discouraged when The Almighty God is your manager? Why should you be discouraged, whist there's still life? Why should you be discouraged when your final whistle has not sounded? The truth is that many people blow the final whistle themselves;
But as long as there is life, nothing is impossible and it is never too late for you.
Half time is not full time and HIS calendar for your life is not man's calendar.
Don't blow the whistle yourself.
BE ENCOURAGED! DON'T GIVE UP.
With God all things are still possible!"
