baum1: I don't really know how to put it for that guy to understand where I'm coming from but I am glad you do understand me. I am someone that strongly believes in order because if I don't, I know that disobedience can build up and affect my life negatively. The problem with many people is that they don't understand that their actions can cause a chain effect in their life. They do something and feels it ends there but it doesn't. There are so many people today who are in a place that they ought not to be because they never allowed the Holy Spirit to lead them. They argue about everything and do things in their own canal ways. Why? Because the leading of the Spirit are usually foolish to them. Let me stop here please. 1 Like |

anonimi: Thank you for that chapter in the book of John. I have read it and have been blessed, especially learned once again that the everlasting waters of life come only from Christ and that believing and having faith in the word of God yields fruit - reference to the man whose son was ill and whose conversation with our Lord Jesus led to his believing what the Lord said and his faith and belief leading to the complete healing of his son. Concerning your other submission, yes there are many wolves in sheep's clothing..But one thing remains sure - there remain those places of worship where God is genuinely worshiped in spirit and in truth, through our Lord Jesus Christ..Just as the Lord told Elijah that there are still those reserved for him who have not bowed and will never bow to Baal, so also are there people and places of worship where the Lord is worshiped in spirit and in truth. My own goal is to continue challenging myself and earnestly asking myself whether I truly believe God's word through Christ Jesus and then praying steadfastly for the grace to live my life in total submission to this word. Bless you. 1 Like 1 Share |

samuelson06: Thanks bro. Indeed, we need to be careful so that we're not misdirected away from His plan for us because we are trying to be wise in our own eyes. Have a wonderful day |

baum1:You are perfectly correct, but I will disagree with you on the last point. We are here in this world to fulfil God's purpose for our lives. We are here to use that purpose to bring Glory to God, but the fact is there are enemies of that purpose. If God Himself has an enemy in the form of Satan, how much more humans? Satan's purpose is to thwart, twist and pollute everything that can be used to God's glory, and that includes man and his destiny. There is no way I will pray for anybody or anything being used by Satan. Even Jesus Christ said anything that doesnt not bear good fruit will be uprooted and cast into the burning fire. ANYTHING. The era of 'pray for your enemies' is long over. If you wanna pray for them, by all means go ahead, but as for me and my household, anybody who doesn't want me to fulfil my purpose in life, anyone who wants to keep afflicting me so that I will be too busy praying over my problems instead of worshipping God fully, then that person 'will be rooted out and cast into the burning fire' "Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest : this shall be the portion of their cup."-Psm 11vs 6 1 Like |

MoltenMagma: Yes, those wicked-hearted people are being used by Satan and his demons to wreck havoc on some innocent people.. But what about heavy prayers for the demonic influences working through those people to be uprooted? What about prayers for the people to be set free from these influences? What about prayers for them to see the light, the light in Christ, rather than die with these unclean spirits and face heavy judgment from God? Imagine a demon-possed person testifying that he/she was arrested by God through your prayers..That's a soul won into the Kingdom of God..You already know the many rewards for that. Nothing happens to genuine sons and daughters of God without His knowledge. He knows all and sees all and knows very much how to deliver us from all afflictions and how to ensure that no weapon fashioned against us prospers. Let us continue to live for Him and in Him, and let us continue to remain genuine children of His.. Blessings |

MoltenMagma: First, are you the one to do what was written in that scripture you just quoted? Upon the wicked "HE" shall...... God knows what to do, how to do and when to do! "HE shall never suffer the righteous to be moved"; Psalm 55:22b. "Behold the eye of the Lord is upon them.... To deliver their soul from death and to keep them alive in famine"; Psalm 33:18-19. "What man is he that feareth the Lord?....... His soul shall dwell at ease and his seed shall inherit the land"; Psalm 25:12-13". I can go on and on with the view to showing you what should be our priority as believers. Have you forgotten brother Job in Job 1:8-12? Job was a man who feared God and shunned evil. Verse 10 is so inspiring and I want you to ponder on it sir; even the devil confessed that it was practically impossible for him to tamper with brother Job's life. Until God had to give him the liberty/authority/go ahead. Summarily, I don't have any problem or concern about the devil or his cohorts. I only need to remain under the shadow of the Almighty. "They that dwell under His shadow shall return......."; Hosea 14:7. You boost devil's moral and confidence when you give him unnecessarily attention. And we can do this from the contents of our prayers, our beliefs, our actions, etc. In conclusion, I could see the devil affirming the Word of God through the life of brother Job: "...... Write; for these words are true and faithful"; Rev 21:5! Devil's confession about brother Job is a confirmation to the few scriptures I quoted earlier; Psalm 55:22b, 33:18-19, 25:12-13...... May God help us to fear HIM (alone) and shun evil all the days of our live. #Dipo! 1 Like |
