WHY SHOULD WE MIND OUR OWN BUSINESS

 1. Proverbs 26:17 Interfering in someone else’s argument is as foolish as yanking a dog’s ears.

2. 1 Thessalonians 4:10-12 Indeed, you already show your love for all the believers throughout Macedonia. Even so, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you to love them even more. Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before. Then people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others.

3. 2 Thessalonians 3:11-13 We hear that some of you are living in idleness. You are not busy working —you are busy interfering in other people’s lives! We order and encourage such people by the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, to do their work quietly and to earn their own living. Brothers, do not get tired of doing what is right.

THE LORD EXPECTS US TO KEEP OUR EYES STAYED ON HIM. SOMETIMES WE DO NOT NEED TO MEDDLE WHERE WE SHOULDN'T. FOR AN EXAMPLE IF SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS CAUDILING THEIR GROWN CHILDREN AS IF THEY WERE 5. WE NEED TO BE SILENT. IT CAN CAUSE ALL SORTS OF PROBLEMS WHEN WE MIND OTHERS BUSINESS, JESUS DID NOT CALL US TO BE BUSY BODIES BUT TO FOLLOW HIM AND HIS WORD. WE MUST PRAY FOR OTHERS AND LEAVE IT IN GODS HANDS. WE CAN ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN THE EYES OF CHRIST BUT NOTHING MORE. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO WALK IN A MANNER WORTHY OF THE CALLING TO WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED,WITH HUMILITY AND GENTLENESS ,WITH PATIENCE BEARING WITH ONE ANOTHER IN LOVE,EAGER  TO MAINTAIN THE UNITY OF THE SPIRIT IN THE BOND OF PEACE. I PRAY THAT THE LORD GIVES US PATIENCE HUMILITY AND LOVE TO ENGAGE WITH OTHERS SAVED OR UNSAVED ON OUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEYS. IT IS NOT EASY BEING PATIENT ALWAYS AND BEING HUMBLED ALWAYS. THE LORD KNOWS THAT WE ARE A FLAWD PEOPLE. MAY YOU ALL REST IN THE PEACE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR.

I AM DESIGNED BY THE LORD AND SO ARE YOU

 I AM CREATED IN THE LIKENESS OF GOD. HE DESIGNED ME CREATED ME BLESSES ME HEALS ME DEFENDS ME FORGIVES ME AND LOVES ME. THE LORD WILL VINDICATE YOU THROUGH HIS JUSTICE FROM YOUR ACCUSERS.WHEN FALSE WITNESSES ARISE AGAINST YOU ,THE LORD WILL REMOVE YOUR ADVESARY AND SLAY HIM. WHEN THE HYPOCRITICAL MOCKERS MOCK YOU. THE LORD WILL GATHER YOU UNTO HIM. JUST AS HE SAID IN PSALMS 35.THE LORD WILL RESCUE YOUR SOUL FROM THE LIONS AND THE BEARS. THE LORD GOD WILL TAKE CHARGE OVER THOSE WHO ARE PLOTTING AGAINST YOU AND PERFORMING DECEITFUL BEHAVIORS.THE WICKED SAYS THAT THERE IS NO GOD. PSALMS 36 -FOR HE FLATTERS HIMSELF IN HIS OWN EYES. HE DEVISETH MISCHIEF UPON HIS BED; HE SETTETH HIMSELF; IN A WAY THAT IS NOT GOOD;HE ABHORETH EVIL.

PSALMS 36.MAY NOT THE HAND OF THE WICKED REMOVE YOU,BUT MAY YOU CONTINUE IN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF JESUS TO BE UPRIGHT IN THE HEART. THE LORD KNOWETH THE DAYS OF THE UPRIGHT; AND THEIR INHERITANCE SHALL BE  FOREVER PSALMS 37:18.

GLORY TO GOD!

BEING CHASTENED BY GOD OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE

 IN 1ST SAMEUL 15:22 IT SAYS, AND SAMUEL SAID,HATH THE LORD AS GREAT DELIGHT IN BURNT OFFERINGS AND SACRIFICES,AS IN OBEYING THE VOICE OF THE LORD? BEHOLD ,TO OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE ,AND TO HEARKEN THAN THE FAT OF RAMS. 

THE LORD WILL SIT US DOWN WHEN WE ARE ARE DOING DESTRUCTIVE THINGS TO OTHERS AND OURSELVES. SOMETIMES THE FLESH CRAVES FOR THE THINGS IN LIFE THAT CAN CAUSE ADDICTIONS. WHETHER IT BE SEXUAL PRIMISCUITY, DRUGS ,ALCOHOL ,FORNICATION,ADULTERY, SODOMY , IDOLATRY OR ABORTION. I HAVE WITNESSED THE LORD CORRECTING MYSELF AND OTHERS WITH HIS ROD. WE DO NOT BELONG TO OURSELVES AND JESUS SAID TO NOT BE LIKE ESAU WHO SOLD HIS BIRTHRIGHT FOR POTTAGE. HEBREWS 12:16. IF JESUS DID NOT CORRECT HIS CHILDREN WHEN WE ARE DOING WRONG, EVERYONE WOULD PERISH. I SERVE A MECIFUL GOD AND A JUST GOD, HE IS LORD AND SAVIOR OF US ALL. JESUS SPOKE TO ME IN MY SLEEP AND SAID, HE WAS COMING FOR ALL OF THE ABOMINATIONS AND THEY WERE DESCENDING AT AN ACCELERATED SPEED WITH BIG RED X'S ON THEM. HE TOLD ME I AM COMING ABOUT 3 TIMES FOR ALL OF THESE ABOMINATIONS. THE TIMES ARE GETTING SHORTER AND THE BIRTHING PAINS ARE GETTING STRONGER. I DO NOT THINK PEOPLE WHO PERSECUTE CHILDREN OF GOD REALLY UNDERSTAND THE FULL MEANING OF THEIR BEHAVIOR. GOD IS JUDGE AND HE WILL JUDGE GOOD AND BAD. I PRAY FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR ACTIONS. I PRAY FOR ANYONE WHO IS FOLLOWING ANY OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED BEHAVIORS. I WAS DELIVERED FROM ADULTERY AND I AM FREE. JESUS TOLD THE ADULTRESS WOMAN, GO AND SIN NO MORE.

TO LIVE IS CHRIST ,TO DIE IS GAIN PHILIP 1:21 I OWE EVERYTHING TO HIM TO LIVE FOR HIM AND THROUGH HIM AND WITH HIM. MAY YOU ALL RECEIVE HIM .LIVE FOR HIM AND REVERENCE HIM. HE IS THE KING OF GLORY AND THE ALMIGHTY GOD. 

MY REDEEMER LIVES- I CAN FACE TOMORROW A( TEST OF FAITH)

 JOB 19:25

FOR I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVETH,AND THAT HE SHALL STAND AT THE LATTER DAY UPON THE EARTH.

CAN YOU IMAGINE LOSING ALL THAT JOB LOST AND GAINING WHAT THE DEVIL STOLE TO BE GIVEN BACK TO YOU DOUBLE. SOMETIMES I FEEL DRAINED FROM THE TEST OF FAITH THAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS PUTTING ME THROUGH. I AM CONFIDENT IN KNOWING THAT WHEN I TRUST HIM WITH MY LIFE, IT WILL BE WORTH IT ALL IN THE END. WHENEVER I FEEL DISCOURAGED, I HEAR A SMALL VOICE THAT SAYS TRUST ME.SURRENDER ALL TO ME. WHEN I FEEL LIKE I AM NOT DOING ENOUGH TO PROSPER; I MUST REMIND MYSELF  TO  KEEP SEEKING THE LORD AND TO BE THANKFUL AND GRATEFUL FOR ALL THAT HE HAS DONE FOR ME. THE LORD TOLD ME THAT HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME. I HEARD THIS AUDIBLY WHEN THE DEVIL WHISPERED ONE OF HIS LIES. WHENEVER WE TRY TO QUESTION OUR ABILITY OF WHO IS LISTENING AND HEARING AND APPLYING THE TEACHINGS IN THEIR LIVES THAT US DESCIPLE TEACH. SOMETIMES I ASK MYSELF IS ANYONE REALLY LISTENING OR ARE THEY JUST SAVING PINS. I KNOW THAT I MUST REMAIN OBEDIENT TO THE LORD BECAUSE HE SAID WHERE YOUR HEART IS THERE YOUR TREASURE MAY BE ALSO. I WILL SERVE THE LORD WITH GLADNESS AND BE GRATEFUL FOR HIS UNDESERVED FAVOR ON MY LIFE. THE LORD HAS BROUGHT ME A LONG WAY AND I HAVE ALOT TO B THANKFUL FOR.  SOMETIMES WHEN WE AS PEOPLE COMPLAIN WE NEED TO STOP AND REALIZE HOW BLESSED WE TRULY ARE. MAY YOU ALL BELIEVE IN PSALMS 23 THE LORD IS MY SHEPERD AND MAY YOU NOT LACK OR WANT FOR ANYTHING. TO GOD BE THE GLORY GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE, MAY YOU ALL BE TOUCHED WITH THE PRESENCE OF GOD ON YOUR LIVES.

THE LORD IS AT THE DOOR OCCUPY AS IN LUKE 19

THE LORD IS AT THE DOOR THE LORD SAID OCCUPY UNTIL HE COME

 THE LORD IS AT THE DOOR. MAY YOUR TEMPLE BE CLEANSED AND FULL OF THE GLORY OF GOD. MAY HIS BEAUTY AND RADIANCE SHINE UPON YOU. I CANNOT PREDICT THE TIME NOR THE HOUR BUT I KNOW THAT WE ALL NEED TO BE PREPARED AND PRAYED UP FOR THE RETURN OF CHRIST. JESUS SAID , OCCUPY UNTIL HE COMES LUKE 19:13 . 

11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.

12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

WHO IS TITUS IN THE BIBLE///A SERVANT WITH PAUL REFERENCE -JCBLOG.NET

 The book of Titus was written by the Apostle Paul to Titus, his true son in the faith. He writes to give instruction and encouragement to Titus who had been left in charge on the island of Crete. Paul’s main objective is to encourage Titus and give instruction about goodly living.

Titus 1 - Instructions About Elders

Titus 1 opens with Paul’s instructions to Titus concerning his mission in Crete. Titus was to appoint elders in each town to serve the churches, so he gives instructions about elders and the qualifications for their appointment. He reminds them that their behavior and households must be above reproach and above all they must hold firmly to the trustworthy message they’ve been taught. Paul then expresses concern at the reports that some were teaching things that ought not to be taught, causing confusion and trouble. Paul gives Titus instructions to rebuke them sharply and to pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the people who reject the truth.

Titus 2 - Sound Doctrine and Sound Behavior

Titus 2 starts with a charge to teach in accordance with sound doctrine. Paul then gives instructions for different groups of people on how they should act and behave. After each instruction it is made clear that the purpose is so no one will malign the word of God by their behavior. So that in every way the teachings about God will be attractive to those witnessing because Christ gave himself to redeem us from all wickedness and to purified a people eager to do good.

Titus 3 - Instructions for Godly Living

Titus 3 closes with a reminder that it is by God’s mercy that we are justified through grace. We are now heirs having the hope of eternal life. This is what Paul reminds Titus to teach, warning him to avoid foolish controversies and arguments, because they are not profitable. Instead, the truth of God’s mercy is profitable for everyone and will spur us on to doing what is good. Paul closes with instructions for Titus to help those coming to him and to live a productive life.
