LIBRA: They Feel Like A DAMN FOOL For Messing This Up With You! Mid March Love Reading

The very essence of church services is an environment of passivity. Being exposed to a repetitive ambience of emotions and fervor leaves the mind malleable, thus making it more susceptible to indoctrination. One begins to assimilate what’s being said from the pulpit without actually processing it.

The symbol of God makes us believe that to seek his existence we must search high and low and beyond in order to observe his works. Unfortunately this is seeking God through worldly wisdom and not spiritually. The basis of understanding the true miracles of God starts in our daily existence. There is a process of development before maturity in our world. What this implies is that a child of five does not immediately learn to drive. We start out riding bicycles and eventually when we are older and have a better understanding of things we move to cars. The assumption here is that we are mature enough to handle this responsibility. The same is true for the spiritual world. God cannot show us the true power of his miracles unless we have learned to see him in the simplest of things.

Have you ever been pressed to forgo your beliefs for something you know is absolutely wrong? The 3 Hebrew boys: Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow to a false god other than God Almighty and our God did not allow them to burn. When you say I will not bow to evil and make it a lifestyle, you will never burn. Challenges will come but holding unto to what God says concerning that issue will cause God to intervene and give you victory.

Imagine a Family Bible could speak, what would it say about the journey through its life? Here is a quirky story about a serious subject, written from the point of view of the Bible itself. By a bookbinder of 3 decades experience. Interesting.

Christian Principles – Live Long by Living Near to the God of Love In Psalm 91, the Holy Spirit inspired author writes of a secret place wherein men may dwell beneath the shadow of God. To stand in this shadow, one must be very, very close to the solid source of the shadow.

It is official! The power of prayer can heal, and it is not just wishful thinking of religious fanatics, there is a study to prove it. Research was conducted by a team of medical doctors and scientists, headed up by Prof Candy Gunther Brown from the University of Indiana. The study was conducted in rural Mozambique and included a group of 11 hard of hearing participants as well as 11 visually impaired people. The study found that when one or more people prayed for someone else, the improvements for that person is significant and measurable.

Neither did the patriarchs worship God in one spot, nor did Moses (i.e. his meeting God at the burning bush and elsewhere), nor did Israel during the post-Exodus wanderings, and nor, finally, did the Jews worship God alone in the temple Solomon built.

Should we be praying for those things we feel God will almost certainly not give us? If God hears us – because we pray according to God’s will – whatever we ask will be done for us. So, what exactly is God’s will? And just how many of our ‘wish list’ prayers are even appropriate?

God’s Spirit has been everywhere at all times. God’s Spirit is not an exclusive thing subject only to our understanding; it is in charge, everywhere. And it can take up residence in anything it chooses, anytime.

How else are we to reciprocate relating to God’s enormous blessing of respect – to give us (and trust us with) free will? This sort of trust is an utterly amazing concept. How will we repay this trust?

Understanding this fact of correct and aligning – indeed reconciling – theology helps us surmount what has possibly previously been impossible for us. That act of forgiveness that we’ve held back, incapable of mustering, suddenly is made very easily; now we understand that if God can forgive us, we can forgive anyone – indeed, God says we should.
