Think what a remarkable, none duplicatable and miraculous thing it is to be you! Of all the people who have come and gone on the earth, since the beginning of time, not ONE of them is like YOU! No one who has ever lived or is to come has had your combination of abilities, talents, appearance, friends, acquaintances, burdens, sorrows and opportunities. No one’s hair grows exactly the way yours does. No one’s finger prints are like yours. No one has the same combination of secret inside jokes and family expressions that you know. The few people who laugh at all the same things you do, don’t sneeze the way you do. No one prays about exactly the same concerns as you do. No one is loved by the same combination of people that love you – NO ONE! No one before, no one to come. YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE! Enjoy that uniqueness. You do not have to pretend in order to seem more like someone else. You weren’t meant to be like someone else. You do not have to lie to conceal the parts of you that a

The kingdom of God does not come with observation! "Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation,” Luke 17:20 You will not say, 'See here!' or 'See there!' We are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, and those who are seeing us think we’re playing games, although is, but the only difference is ours are real. It is the real show, and we’ve all been lured to playing a series of games from which the winner will emerge victorious - that we are indeed set free. But it’s just not enough to be successful in one game, you got to win all of them to win. The Pharisees thought they were the winners, and so they demanded the kingdom, and today some preachers may think it’s the end too. The Pharisees laid demands probably knowing that the new game Jesus was preaching about would be gruesome for them. So they thought, let the game now e

  "For He knows deceitful men; He sees wickedness also. Will He not then consider it?" Job 11:11 Deceitful men are they who say God has called them when He has not. These speak wickedly for God regardless of what they say which sometimes is true, for they secretly show partiality for Him. Their womb prepares oppression and deceit, or simply speaking they walk in falsehood. Deceit comes from within their spirit. Jesus said, "Hear and understand: Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man," Matthew 15:10-11, and verse 19 says, “For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.” You want to thrive in the things of God?  David says, then “Keep your tongue from evil, And your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it,” Psalm 34:13-14.  Depart from evil, from deceit, deception or misrepresentation. It’s not good for

It is God who supplies the Spirit to you, and you receive the promise of the Spirit through faith, Galatians 3:14. You receive the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ our Lord who has redeemed us that this blessing may also come upon you. The Holy Spirit has already been poured out into the world. Peter said, "Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear," Acts 2:33. So He already has been poured out as a drink, and now is the right time for you to receive him.  Who receives the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit was poured out, or sent from heaven to be received by you and me who believe in the gospel of Christ and us who want to worship God in the spirit of Jesus Christ. The Father Himself promised and He has already given us His Holy Spirit. How do you receive Him? Since the Holy Spirit has already been poured out from heaven. He is meanwhile hovering arou

The Holy Spirit was given for our good. He gave us the Holy Spirit to set a seal on us, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God," Romans 8:14. I love verse 16-17, it says, "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.  How do you suffer with him? Remember my friend, that the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Therefore, fear God and be spiritually minded; serve God according to the spirit of holiness, according to the righteousness requirement of the law, walking in the spirit and in newness of life. "Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body," Romans 8:23. Be fervent in spir

“ Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God? ” Genesis 41:38 Not all "wise men" have the spirit of God, and worse if they always strive with others. The Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with men… Genesis 6:3. You have not the spirit of God if you do. One as this a man in whom is the Spirit of God knows how to work with others in all manner of workmanship, " in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship ," Exodus 31:3. He/she is stirred up in heart and is willing to engage in the business of believers who fear God. One as this a man in whom is the Spirit of God gives " no regard to mediums and familiar spirits ," Leviticus 19:31. He/she does not seek after them, to be defiled by them.  One as this a man in whom is the Spirit of God does not mistreat others. I know how I’m also a stranger to some folks who feel opposed to me, but Leviticus 19:34 says, " The stranger who dwells among you
