Prospering in all things.

NOW GODLINESS WITH CONTENTMENT IS GREAT GAIN. FOR WE BROUGHT NOTHING INTO THIS WORLD, AND IT IS CERTAIN WE CAN CARRY NOTHING OUT. 1 TIMOTHY 6:7 *NKJV

In this World today it is so easy to get caught up trying to make money, that it can become number one in our lives. We may even forget at times how very short our human life is compared to our Eternal life! FOR WHAT IS YOUR LIFE? IT IS EVEN A VAPOR THAT APPEARS FOR A LITTLE TIME AND THEN VANISHES AWAY. JAMES 4:14

We also may become easily distracted by those around us, who are so consumed by the love of money that they have lost sight of what is most important! If the truth be known those people often have very unhappy lives, for it is written; THE LOVE OF MONEY IS A ROOT OF ALL KINDS OF EVIL, FOR WHICH SOME HAVE STRAYED FROM THE FAITH IN THEIR REEDINESS AND PIERCED THEMSELVES THROUGH WITH MANY SORROWS. 1 TIMOTHY 6:10

Now that doesn’t mean we should live a life of poverty at all. For God wants His Children to prosper, after all He said; BE STRONG AND VERY COURAGEOUS, THAT YOU MAY OBSERVE TO DO ACCORDING TO ALL THE LAW WHICH MOSES MY SERVANT COMMANDED YOU; DO NOT TURN FROM IT TO THE RIGHT HAND OR TO THE LEFT, THAT YOU MAY PROSPER WHEREVER YOU MAY GO. JOSHUA 1:7

So when others distract you it is important to remember that as a Child of God you have an even better life ahead of you! A life without pain, sorrow, sickness or any other adversity! One with the Angels, Arc-Angels and all the Company of Heaven. An Eternal life with God and your loved one’s who have already passed before you. So always; SET YOUR MIND ON THINGS ABOVE, NOT ON THINGS ON THE EARTH. COLOSSIANS 3:2 For then you will find true peace and happiness when you do!

Therefore; I PRAY THAT YOU MAY PROSPER IN ALL THINGS AND BE IN HEALTH, JUST AS YOUR SOUL PROSPERS. Amen. 3 JOHN 2

FEAR NOT, I will help you

AND THE LORD, HE IS THE ONE WHO GOES BEFORE YOU. HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU; DO NOT FEAR NOR BE DISMAYED. DEUTERONOMY 31:8 *NKJV

There are times when we are fearful of current events or even the future, for fear is a tool that satan uses to attack our faith in oumir Heavenly Father. After all fear causes worry, and what is worry and fear anyway, but the opposite of faith!

Now it is important for a Child of God to remember that GOD HAS NOT GIVEN US A SPIRIT OF FEAR, BUT OF POWER AND OF LOVE AND OF A SOUND MIND. 2 TIMOTHY 1:7 And God has made us this promise, FOR I, THE LORD YOUR GOD, WILL HOLD YOUR RIGHT HAND, SAYING TO YOU, “FEAR NOT, I WILL HELP YOU.” ISAIAH 41:13

So, the next time that fear strikes you remember to hold fast to your faith! After all you can always CAST ALL YOUR BURDEN ON THE LORD, AND HE SHALL SUSTAIN YOU; HE SHALL NEVER PERMIT THE RIGHTEOUS TO BE MOVED. PSALM 55:22

FINALLY, BRETHREN, FAREWELL. BECOME COMPLETE. BE OF GOOD COMFORT, BE OF ONE MIND, LIVE IN PEACE; AND THE GOD OF LOVE AND PEACE WILL BE WITH YOU. 2 CORINTHIANS 13:11

Therefore, have a great day today filled with peace, and remember that “Worry is the darkroom in which negatives are developed.” Amen.
