FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT.

FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT.

Galatians:5.22 
 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, .23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
--------------------------------------------
 There is a standard that checks the ultimate presence of the spirit in creatures. The Spirit is a spirit, His standards are of the spirit. You may ask, how could I know that God's spirit thrives in me? The answer is within scriptures....

Darkness thrives in anger, uncontrolled self - where one does all he pleases without discipline and any essence of wisdom; hatred and the like. And like we all know, two spirits control humanity - spirit of light and a spirit of darkness. If you definitely know that you posses traits like the above, know for sure that nothing drives your life other than dark authorities.

On the contrary, If you know that non of the above traits have spotted your soul, the Spirit is within you and the fruits are at work. Your life is driven by love, ; not just love for your neighbor but also love for what you do..- in your business, career, school....; ..you have love for your actions, love for yourself and who you are; you don't compare yourself with others but appreciate God's divine elements on you. You are driven by self-control - having discipline to do the right things at the right times without coughing blames and blasphemies over who is not right about what you think is right. And gentle traits in speech and in actions; not being in unnecessary hurries to chase after what does not count.

There is no government that enacts laws about love, gentleness, peace and self-control. You yourself have the right to drive your mind to love and peace. 
The spirit is on a wait to yield fruits in you. Could you yield yours soul to Christ for the manifestation of His fruits?

HOLD IT

SUNDAY SERVICE  SERMON:                           HOLD IT   INTRO :  It is easy to go through life and feel embarrassed. And because of such embarrassment, it also easy to feel like throwing out something to compensate for your bad feelings. You feel you should throw out a word at someone, you feel you should throw off the relationship, you feel you should throw off the patience.  There is something that happens behind the scene that we never know about. And if we knew it, we would understand the power of holding it to our selves.   PROB : The problem we have is that we want to seek for compensation in short times, for revenge within no times...and never want to hold reactions for long.   PURP :  To enable us hold our emotions and anxieties in a world of intolerance.       >>> Christ was a man who faced a lot of persecution. He was always sought for by his enemies. They wanted him dead at all cost. Reaching a point of shamelessly paying one of his disciple to bet

THE GREAT BLISS

THE GREAT BLISS Isaiah 42:9  See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” -------------------------------------------- When there is something God is yet to do, He has to get tools within you to accomplish it. And one tool to use in you is the mind you got. God cannot accomplish great things when the mind and heart are stuck in former things...in former years. Before He made Mary have the great son He had to make her forget the former things and focus on the new things. When the Bible clearly says that God has a good plan for us and it assures us that God has no harmful plan for us; this means that what could be holding us back is not up to God!. He has the good plan already. But the nature of our minds may be holding onto the former and never letting it go. Because of the pains you had in the last year, you still revise that and experience pains again.  But there is something new. The Lord has tol
