Godliness With Contentment is Great Gain!!!

 

Godliness With Contentment is Great Gain!!!

“Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against the LORD; but as for Aaron, who is he that you murmur against him? Then Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Elian; but they said defiantly, ‘We will not come up. Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land [of plenty] flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness, but you will lord it over us? Indeed you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of these men? We will not come up!’” (Numbers 16: 11-14, AMP).

This shows the lack of maturity among the people. They wanted to blame Moses and Aaron for God's judgments against those who lost their lives. While confirming their dissatisfaction of His blessings bestowed upon them because of ignorance, disobedience, and unbelief. Refusing to accept accountability. They were attempting to force Moses to reverse God's command and to give them an inheritance of property and vineyards. Revealing their ingratitude and greed.

When the LORD Goes Before You!!!

 When the LORD Goes Before You!!! “Know [without any doubt], that the LORD your God is not giving you this good land to possess because of your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked (stubborn, obstinate) people. Remember [with remorse] and do not forget how you provoked the LORD your God to wrath in the wilderness; from the day you left the land of Egypt until you arrived at this place, you have been rebellious against the LORD. And at Horeb (Sinai) you provoked the LORD to wrath, and the LORD was so angry with you that He would have destroyed you” (Deuteronomy 9: 4-8, AMP). Many of us focus on Moses' fasting for forty days and forty nights. But he had to go back up for a second time, for forty more days and nights, hewing two tablets of stone himself, as he fasted and prayed for the lives of the Israelites, including his brother Aaron. In God’s mercy they spent forty years in the wilderness, and He was not wrong if He would have condemned them to eighty years. Before we procee...

The Power of Prayer!!!

  The Power of Prayer!!! This evening, I found out that someone that I cared for on many occasions had died. It broke my heart because she was critically injured during an altercation, and no one said anything to me about it until it was too late. She hung on for a few days after but succumbed to her injury. The LORD spoke to my spirit that she was given time to allow someone the opportunity to intercede for her. It is what hurt me more than anything. In the past I remember two performers, Gregory Hines and Luther Vandross who were sick around the same time. The former whose illness was kept a secret, and the latter, who had loved ones ask the public to pray for him. Luther Vandross recovered and survived for two more years while Gregory Hines died in the self-same year of 2003. And as both of these individuals were being discussed, it was made clear that this was the result of the power of prayer. And I never forgot this because I knew that this was of God. Death is final. And if ...

Spiritual Deafness is Increasing!!!

 Spiritual Deafness is Increasing!!! “These are the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do in the land, which the LORD God of thy fathers giveth thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth. Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree: and ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place” (Deuteronomy 12: 1-3, KJV). While reading this, the LORD is instilling in me the understanding that we should have a zeal for Him above all things. Every idol in our lives, including man, woman, or child should be thrust down. Unhealthy relationships and mindsets cast out. The need to be worshipped. Greed, covetousness, and gluttony. The increasing pride, lust, sexual immorality. DISOBEDIENCE, and...
