STOP HOLDING ON TO MIND CLUTTER.

I challenge all readers of this post to go room by room in their houses, throwing out things, and then to go to work on their minds, getting rid of mind clutter.
Good stewardship means we keep focused on what is really important, and it is not usually the things we clutter our lives and our homes with. What things are you storing that you can do without? What thoughts are you hanging onto that you would be better off without? Bitterness? Grudges? Negative thoughts? Throw them out.
Here are some of the key things the Bible encourages us to get rid of:
– Bitterness, anger, and malice – Ephesians 4:31 says, “Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.”
– Deceit and hypocrisy – 1 Peter 2:1 urges us to lay aside “all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander.”
– Filthy language and harmful speech – Colossians 3:8 calls us to rid ourselves of “anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language.”
– Worldly thinking – Romans 12:2 reminds us not to conform to the world but to be “transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
– Sinful desires – Galatians 5:24 says those who belong to Christ have “crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”
The common thread? God invites us to shed anything that distorts love, truth, and peace. It’s not just about avoiding bad behavior—it’s about making space for something better: kindness, forgiveness, humility, and joy.

ALLOW THIS WORD FROM GOD TO BE A GUIDE UNTO YOUR LIFE.

Where do demons come from? Demons are fallen angels who serve Satan.

Where do demons come from? Demons are fallen angels who serve Satan.

It’s in the Bible, Revelation 12:8-9 NKJV. “But they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
We are in a spiritual battle with evil spirits – Satan and his fallen angels. It’s in the Bible, Ephesians 6:11, 12, NKJV. “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
If we are true to Jesus and obey Him by faith, we do not need to be afraid of Satan’s power. It’s in the Bible, Luke 10:19, NKJV. “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

A QUICK REFRESHER.

A QUICK REFRESHER.

Galatians 6:7–10 Make no mistake about this: You can never make a fool out of God. Whatever you plant is what you’ll harvest. If you plant in ⸤the soil of⸥ your corrupt nature, you will harvest destruction. But if you plant in ⸤the soil of⸥ your spiritual nature, you will harvest everlasting life. We can’t allow ourselves to get tired of living the right way. Certainly, each of us will receive ⸤everlasting life⸥ at the proper time, if we don’t give up. Whenever we have the opportunity, we have to do what is good for everyone, especially for the family of believers.

THINK ABOUT IT AND ALLOW THIS REFRESHER FROM GOD TO BE A GUIDE UNTO YOUR LIFE.

DON’T WORRY, TRUST GOD

DON’T WORRY, TRUST GOD

The Bible offers several verses that encourage us to trust in God and not worry about the future. Here are a few powerful ones:
Matthew 6: “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
1 Peter 5:7 “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
Luke 12:25-26 “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?”
These verses remind us that God is in control and cares for us, so we can release our worries and trust in His plan.

DON’T WORRY, TRUST GOD. DIDN’T GOD TELL US HE WILL NEVER LEAVE US, OR FROSAKE US. DIDN’T GOD TELL US HE WILL SUPPLY OUR EVERY NEED.
TRUST GOD AND ENJOY YOUR LIFE.

A LIVING SACRIFICE

adrakes845@yahoo.comLeave a comment
A LIVING SACRIFICE
Romans 12:1Therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your spiritual worship.
Where Is It?
As mentioned previously, Romans is one of the most influential books in the New Testament on Christian doctrine. All of Paul’s letters are directed to, and focus on the needs and problems of, the local church. Romans is the least “local,” in that Paul had yet to go to Rome at the time of the letter. Because of the less personal nature of the guidance, he covers all his bases by giving a full message of the gospel. Paul spends the first eleven chapters detailing salvation through faith in the gospel. Now that Paul has told them everything about what it means to become a Christian, he moves into what it looks like to be a Christian. At this verse, Paul transitions into exhortations about the Christian life.
What Does It Mean?
“Therefore” in this verse separates what God has done from what we should do next. Because of the saving act of Jesus, we should offer our bodies as “a living sacrifice.” A sacrifice is easy to understand; it is something that is offered, or given up to God. But Paul does not tell the people to sacrifice themselves to God—he tells them to be a “living sacrifice”; one that is holy and pleasing to God.
Why Does It Matter?
Letting go of something in sacrifice can be difficult, but it is usually a one time go. Being a living sacrifice is a whole other level. It is every single day crawling up on the alter, and giving yourself to God. To be a living sacrifice, is to make the choice of letting go of your desires constantly, knowing that God’s desires are greater, and will replace your own. And this is not a requirement of salvation—it is the way that we worship God with all that we are. The God of the universe sent His son to die on the cross, so that we could be saved from our sins, and the way we worship Him is to live our new life for Him alone.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Don’t you know that your body is a temple that belongs to the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit, whom you received from God, lives in you. You don’t belong to yourselves. You were bought for a price. So bring glory to God in the way you use your body.
1 Corinthians 10:31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything to the glory of God.

I HOPE YOU FOUND THIS QUICK REFRESHER TO BE HELPFUL.

Don’t be a hypocrite
Isaiah 29:15 How horrible it will be for those who try to hide their plans from the LORD. Their deeds are done in the dark, and they say, “No one can see us” and “No one can recognize us.”
Matthew 7:5 “You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.”
2 Timothy 3:5 They will appear to have a godly life, but they will not let its power change them. Stay away from such people.
Matthew 15:8 ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
1 Peter 2: 1So get rid of every kind of evil, every kind of deception, hypocrisy, jealousy, and every kind of slander.

DON’T BE A HYPOCRITE, OR FORM CLOSE RELATIONS WITH HYPOCRITES.

Perfection Is Unattainable

Perfection Is Unattainable
Ecclesiastes 7:20 Certainly, there is no one so righteous on earth that he always does what is good and never sins.
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” This verse reminds us that no one is perfect, and we all need God’s grace.
– Ecclesiastes 7:20 – “Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous, no one who does what is right and never sins.” This verse reinforces the idea that perfection is beyond human reach.
Matthew 5:48 states, “Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” This verse is part of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, where He calls His followers to a higher standard of righteousness.
The word “perfect” in this context does not mean flawless or without sin, as humans are inherently imperfect. Instead, it refers to completeness, maturity, and wholeness in love and righteousness. Jesus is urging His disciples to reflect God’s character—especially His love, mercy, and grace—in their interactions with others.
This verse follows Jesus’ teaching about loving enemies and practicing kindness beyond societal norms. It emphasizes that believers should strive to love unconditionally, just as God does. The call to perfection is about spiritual growth, not achieving an unattainable standard of human flawlessness.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED AND RECEIVED FROM THIS QUICK REFRESHER.

GODLY HUNGER AND THIRST

GODLY HUNGER AND THIRST
Matthew 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for God’s approval. They will be satisfied.
Matthew 5:6 speaks to a deep spiritual longing—a desire for righteousness as essential as food and water. In this verse, Jesus acknowledges and blesses those who earnestly seek righteousness, promising that they will be fulfilled.
Breaking it down:
– Hungering and thirsting: These are powerful metaphors. Just as we need food and water to survive, true righteousness is something our soul craves.
– For righteousness: This isn’t just about personal virtue but longing for justice, truth, and alignment with God’s will.
– “They shall be filled”: This is a promise—those who seek God with sincerity won’t be left empty but will find satisfaction through Him.
It’s a call to seek God wholeheartedly, knowing He responds to those who yearn for His presence and truth.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED AND RECEIVED FROM THIS QUICK REFRESHER.
