sometimes the lord will have to break you to mould you into his very likness

Lord make me and mold me into the person You want me to be. The Bible says in Isaiah 64:8 that He is the potter and we are the clay.  Let's be who He wants us to be!!!!! Why do my lips sing, “Break me, melt me, mold me, fill me” yet my selfish heart cries, “Bless me, extol me, affirm me, approve me, provide for me?” Could it be that I tend to forget one of Scriptures truest principles? God develops the fruit of the Holy Spirit in our lives by allowing us to experience circumstances in which we are tempted to express the exact opposite quality.  God wants to teach us biblical love by putting unlovely people around us. God’s classroom for teaching us  genuine joy is the place of sorrow. It is in the midst of chaos and confusion that you discover real peace. God’s method of character development is to “break you, melt you, mold you…” “Mold” me.  The dictionary defines the verb “mold” as “ to form, shape, fashion, model an object with a particular shape.” God’s plan and purp

Most of us are surviving off our parents' prayers!

Parents are the greatest gift from God, some of our greatest blessings lay under  their  prayers! As we embrace adulthood, we come to realize what our parents mean. We look at their lives and study the ways they taught us things,  we find ourselves copying their actions and motions . Our parents' prayers are our strongest survival tools for this generation.  We need their prayers in everywhere.  we should always love them and care for them in a special way.  Some parents earnestly pray and their children to become  gifted leaders or scholars or musicians or athletes, etc.  The truth is, God is answering all these parents’ prayers, but for very different purposes. Parents do all this not to get any benefit from their children, but only with the hope and belief that their children will become  educated, and respectful to their parents, useful to their family, society, country and a living example of success. l can testify that i'm a living testimony of my parents' pray

Bitterness allows Satan a foothold...

  "Do not give the devil a foothold" is a call to arms-to engage in the battle that will define our lives. Are you ceding ground? Are you watchful? Are you winning?  ground? Are you watchful?  Every Christian is engaged in a fierce, life-defining battle with Satan. He is our "adversary" (1 Pet 5:8) , and he has crafted elaborate "wiles" (Eph 6:11) and "devices" (2 Cor 2:11) to gain ground and win us to his side. In his instruction on dealing with festering anger, Paul warns us: "do not give the devil a foothold"-don't make it any easier on him!  This teaches us that we must give no ground to the devil. The smallest ground, the tiniest foothold, the briefest opportunity is to be zealously guarded against falling into his hand.  He is so territorial that he wants it all, money, health, marriage, relationships, employment, business, and ministry. But to start his campaign to conquer all those areas of our lives, h

2016 update!!! you cant put new wine into an old wine skin.

" And no one pours new wine into old wine-skins. If he does, the new wine will make the skins burst, the wine will be spilled, and the skins will be ruined. " Luke 5:37. New wine must be stored in new wineskins. But no one who drinks the old wine seems to want the new wine. 'The old is just fine,' they say." Y ou can’t mix old religious rituals with new faith in Jesus.  sometimes you've to let go of the old things and make room of the new things. let us trust God in this new season that we are., behold the   Lord   longs   to be gracious to you;      therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the  Lord  is a God of justice.      Blessed are all who wait for him! Isaiah 30:1 8 . You will spread on every side! No stopping you.You will do greater things this 2016 prayer:   Gracious Lord, every time I remember how you spoke to me through Luke 5:37-39, I am profoundly grateful for your grace. Even though I was clinging to my old wines
