Treasure in Heaven

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: Matthew 6:19

What is your treasure? When you hear the word treasure what comes to mind?

Treasure is defined as something we hold valuable, so what is valuable to you?

Is money truly a treasure or is eternal life? Are possessions really a treasure or your family?

Many that call themselves poor are already rich, they just don’t appreciate the treasures God has giving them.

But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: Matthew 6:20

If you plan on living eternally then you will value things that last for eternity. But if you plan on living temporary then you will treasure things of temporary value.

You need to decide what your living for? Are living just for the moment or are you living to prepare for eternity? Where is your heart at?

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:21

If money is your treasure, then your heart belongs to money. If God is your treasure then your heart belongs to your God. Nobody can serve two masters.

What is your highest priority? Are your actions intended to help others or to help yourself?

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18

When we understand God and our purpose we see the world very differently. When you live for the world you only see value in things of this world but when you live for God you see the value in eternity in his Kingdom.

So where and what are your treasures your storing up today? Are they temporary treasures or are you preparing for Gods Kingdom in Jesus name Amen

Foolish Prophets

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing! Ezekiel 13:3

Just as there were many false prophets back in Biblical days there are still many false or foolish prophets today. In fact if you look online theres an overabundance of people claiming there prophets from God with divine insights and special blessings

Beware of these false prophets, check the fruit they are bearing. Is there lifestyle that of living for the world or preparing for Gods Kingdom?

They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word. Ezekiel 13:6

False prophets proclaiming God is sending them great wealth and favor, God did not send these prophets or blessings. These are lies straight from Satan. Our riches are in Heaven and not of this world.

Consider Matthew 19:21 Jesus told the rich man if you want to see the kingdom of Heaven sell all your possessions and give it to the poor.

Then ask yourself about these false prophets if Jesus is teaching this why would God want to make you rich? Because it’s a lie, its false doctrine from a foolish prophet.

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD. Ezekiel 13:8

When you speak these lies, twist Gods word for your favor, God is then against you. Why? Because you are holding hands with Satan. Be careful who you are following and listening to, follow Jesus he is the truth, life, and the way

Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:  Ezekiel 13:10

These foolish prophets mislead people into believing that Christianity is a “walk in the park” that’s not what Jesus said we will be persecuted in his name. Those who don’t build there house on the rock on in for a rude awakening with the storms hit.

But when you build upon the truth, the rock, the prince of peace, you will be ready to battle those storms and overcome the world because Christ has already overcame it in Jesus Name Amen

Higher Standard

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9

When I first heard of the Ashley Madison site being hacked, to be honest I didn’t think much of it because I never even heard of the company. But as the days went on and names were being revealed we soon realized this is a big deal. The sins of many being exposed to the world and the fallout as many families and marriages are destroyed and broken.

And then we come to find out there are even self-proclaimed Christians on this site saying there living a double life.

Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20

So what do we do with all these Christians who claim to be living like Jesus but acting like Satan? Do we continue to give them a pass or is it time to call them out on there transgressions?

I have sadly come across many who call them selves Christians believe they can use Jesus as a free pass to live a sinful life. This is false doctrine. Jesus said Deny Yourself first then carry your cross and follow him. Sin is all about self pleasure, so if your living a sinful lifestyle you never denied yourself to begin with.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:14

So many will use the excuse we are all born sinners, therefor I can’t stop sinning. Jesus became human and walked the Earth for over 30 years and never sinned. Do you not think Jesus was tempted?

He showed us that a human could live a righteous life but it takes sacrifice and discipline. We might not be able to be like Jesus but we can strive to be like him. Isn’t that why we call ourselves Christians to have Christ living inside of us?

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 7:22-23

Make no mistake about it there will be many that prophesied in the name of Jesus and he will reject them. Why? Because they are fake. There mouth is saying one thing while there heart is in another place, you can’t serve two masters. Your either following Jesus or your following Satan, that’s it.

Are people really seeing Jesus living thru you? It’s time we hold ourselves to a higher standard, not of the world’s standard but of Gods standards in Jesus Name Amen

The Lords Prayer

The Lords Prayer giving to us by Jesus himself is one of the most powerful prayers you can say, lets analyze each verse to see why it’s a blessing

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Matthew 6:9

First we are acknowledging God as our Heavenly father, by this you acknowledge his is our creator. The world hallowed means “to honor as holy” and “greatly respected” so we say Hallowed be God we are saying he is the holiest and greatest of all.

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10

What is our purpose in life? Our purpose to prepare for the coming of Gods Kingdom, we our acknowledging our purpose will this verse.

Also we are acknowledging we put our lives in Gods hands, whatever his will let it be done. As promised God will restore the Earth back to perfection and innocence as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. Matthew 6:11

Jesus said don’t worry about tomorrow for today has enough trouble of its own. Each day we should focus on that day and ask God to enable us to prosper thu this day.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Matthew 6:12

Each day we should start by asking for mercy and forgiveness for our sins and forgive others who have sinned against us. By doing this each day you will live in peace. To hold grudges against people who have wronged you will only keep you imprisoned to there actions.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. Matthew 6:13

God promises not to give us more temptation then we can bear, ask for Gods help to keep the temptations of this world away from you so we won’t fall.

Whenever you call upon God he will answer us, so by asking God to deliver us from evil he will protect us from Satan.

Interesting in the NIV translation they removed the last part of this verse. I feel its important because you are acknowledging Gods kingdom reigns forever.

I usually say this prayer each morning to start my day, as this will start your day right with God and protect and prosper you thru the day in Jesus Name Amen

Can you See The Signs?

Unashamed of Jesus's avatarUnashamed of Jesus

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matthew 24:8

With the recent natural disasters, including Earthquake in Nepal and Volcano in Chile, you have to wonder whether the end is near. All the things Jesus foretold us would happen are going on right now at an alarming rate. But still is anyone listening? Is anyone stopping to pray to God and ask for mercy and redemption? Is anyone preparing for the return of Jesus Christ?

And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. Joel 2:30-31

Prophet Joel prophesized about these great events also, which…
