An examination sometimes is painful....

But helpful.  2 Corinthians 13:5 says Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves.  Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you--unless, of course, you fail the test?

It's a sad situation to fail an examination right?  If you are taking an examination, it's something that you need to exceed in.  Who wants to take a test and fail?  Who wants to go to the doctor and be examined only to find out bad results, to find out your health is failing.  Why go through the motions of being a Christian and end up in hell because your heart isn't pure.

By examining yourself, you find out what's wrong and if it's an early diagnosis during the examination you can correct some issues before they get out of hand.

By taking a pre-exam you learn that you need to study more before you take the final examination.  By going to the doctor and finding out what's wrong, you get treatment that could prevent any serious condition.  By examining your spiritual self, you learn that you are lukewarm and need to get delivered from some stuff.

So examine yourself to see if you pass the test, of having Jesus in you.

Amen!!!

Let the church say Amen!!!  That is all left for us to say to all of God's promises, Amen.  If we are living Holy according to the Word of God, it's Amen!!!  If we are living unholy according to the Word of God, it's Amen!!! God can not tell a lie and He will not be mocked.  So He will do just what He says He will do and His Word will not be found contrary to it's self.  A lot of times we wonder why we aren't blessed when we are doing all we can to live Holy, not remembering that we have cursed ourselves with our tongue by saying something contrary to the blessing.  Or we've cursed ourselves by not giving our tithes and offering faithfully.  Or we have some forgiveness that we are carrying around that we should have released to someone who wronged us.  Blessings and curses depend on us.  So let the church say Amen!!!  Believe God's Word, obey God's Word, and receive the blessings from God's Word.  No we won't get it right all the time, but His grace is sufficient and He is a forgiving God.  Amen!!!

Now He's a Young Man!!

   This is my Handsome, and at some point in life you have to let those only begotten sons grow.  You teach them what thus says the Lord, and help them for a little while but then the Lord tells you "Now He's a Young Man" that doesn't mean stop praying and believing God for them but it's time that you stop getting uptight because he isn't doing things the way you want him to.  I have to believe that he understands that when he was a child it was okay to talk and think like a child and even understand as a child, but now he's a man he must put away childish ways. (1Cor. 13:11) You have done all that you can do as a single mother to raise him up, and he's going to make mistakes, but love him anyways.  You have trained him up in the way that he should go and it's in him.  So relax, and thank God that "Now He's a Young Man" because some didn't make it as far as he did.  Thank God for the things that he is not doing which makes him blessed, and thank God that you can pray about the things he is doing which brings the curse.  Pray that he remembers what he has been taught concerning all things.  Love you Handsome.

A Docile Spirit....

Can help you in life.  A teachable spirit is a humble spirit. 1 Pet 5:5>Young folks listen to old folks.  Be humble with each other, for God opposes the proud, the ones who won't listen to teaching but gives grace to the humble.  Prov. 12:1 Whoever loves to be taught is smart, he who hates being taught is stupid. This is the BYT version but look it up for yourself.


If you refuse to be taught, you are stupid, that's the Word people.  We often get advice (teaching) from someone who has been through what we are going through or something we may be about to go through.  But we don't listen if we don't have A Docile Spirit.  We think we know everything, can't nobody tell us nothing and then we do what we are advised not to do and look stupid.  Well guess what, because we hated instruction, we are stupid.


Let's listen to Godly instruction and learn from it so that we may be blessed from having a Docile Spirit and not a prideful one.
