Did you create yourself…can you?

Did you create yourself…

 

You will not covet…

You will not covet another’s…for the love of money is the root of all evil…and all that the world has to offer is the lust of the body (flesh), the lust of the eyes (the I want what I see)…and the pride of life (the self-made man).

 

As it is written…What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, You shalt not covet: (Rom 7:7)…

As it is written…Love (covet…desire…wanting) not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him…For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory (self-made or without God) of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides forever… (1Jn 2:15-17)

 

The Love of money is the root of all kinds of evil…

As it is written…For the love (coveting or the obtaining without God’s permission) of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows…But you, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness (right doing by God and man), godliness (developing the character pleasing to God), faith (in God and His words which do us no harm), love (love of God first and creation second), patience (enduring the needs of others for God’s will to be done), meekness (obedience to God and His word) (1Ti 6:10-11)

…for the love of money is the root of all evil. It is like Eve…did she see the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil…yes or no? Did she see it could be eaten…yes or no? Would it supply the knowledge God knew without God’s permission…yes or no?

…Money can buy you all the lust of the flesh you desire…the love of money can supply the lust of your eyes…the love of money can supply the I am better than the way God made me or I am self-made or better than the poor or the pride of life…

Coveting is the opposite of giving and usually involves some form of violence either through circumstance outside influence or directly with acts of personal violence…

…Coveting is making yourself into your own version of self (godliness being like God without going to God for the blessing) …it is I want what God gave you not what He gave me.

 

If you desire greater than you have…then use Jesus’ prescription for receiving a greater blessing…

Jesus said as it is written…Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone; or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him? All things therefore whatsoever you would that men should do unto you, even so do you also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets. Enter you in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. For narrow is the gate, and straitened (difficult) the way, that leads unto life, and few are they that find it. (Mat 7:7-14)

Do not judge but teach better...

The child of God…said do not judge me but help me be better

And do not judge others, so that you yourself will not be judged in any way. Do not condemn others, so that you will not be condemned in any way. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given to you. Good measure, pressed down and shaken together and running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete out, it shall be measured again to you." Then He spoke a parable to them, saying, "Is a blind man able to lead a blind man? Will not both fall into the ditch?... (Luk 6:37-39)


There is only One Door into Heaven…

…For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ so that each one may receive according to the things done in his body—what he has practiced, whether good or evil… (2Co 5:10)


Have you ever met Jesus in judgment…

…But the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. (Rev 21:8 AFV)


Prayer

Father please meet our soul's deepest needs and search us to see our souls deepest needs for You, Your Son, and the Holy Spirit...we know we will never hunger and thirst because we believe in Jesus...in Jesus of Nazareth's name amen.

Exercise daily…walk with the Lord…

Exercise daily…walk with the Lord…

 

Whom or who do you walk with the darkness or the Light?

If we say that we have fellowship with Him (God) and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: but if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us…He that saith he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now. He that loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no occasion of stumbling in him. But he that hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and knows not whither he goes, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes…Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory (pride) of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides forever…Who is the liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, even he that denies the Father and the Son. Whosoever denies the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that confesses the Son hath the Father also.

(1Jn 1:6-10 ASV 1Jn 2:9-11 ASV 1Jn 2:15-17 ASV 1Jn 2:22-23 ASV)

 

Do not be an Anti-Christ or follow an Anti-Christ…

My little children, let no man lead you astray: he that does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous: he that does sin is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil…Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: and every spirit that confesses not Jesus is not of God: and this is the spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it comes; and now it is in the world already. Ye are of God, my little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world…And this is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us: and if we know that he hears us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.

(1Jn 3:7-8 ASV 1Jn 4:1-4 ASV 1Jn 5:14-15 ASV)

 

Pray with me…

Father please save us from the lust of the flesh…lust of the eyes…and the pride of life…please create and fulfil our soul’s deepest needs that we may prosper as our soul prospers and heal our sin scars…

in Jesus Christ of Nazareth’s name amen.
