MIND YOUR BUSINESS

1 Thessalonians 4:12

 Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.
--------------------------------------------
We are surrounded by a cloud of people that either increase us or decrease us. One very good thing I have seen is that anybody can have any opinion about you. And any opinion can mean to fit you just according to how to take it to be.
The great people that have seen the best versions of their selves have been those that don't talk about others all day long. They have not been the people that sit around and discuss people. 
They are ones who mind their business.

Christ had a cross to carry. What would have become of Him if he discussed about the Pharisees all his life? Would he be motivated by the spirit of scripture if he minded the business of others. He was a person who had his schedule at hand. We see it in several verses how he did a task after the other. Mark actually summarizes the codes of conduct the Messiah had. He uses phrases such as soon after, immediately; to refer to how Jesus was a person of his business. 
He was able to accomplish all he was sent to ,just within the stipulated time.

Many of us never finish what we owe to finish just because we never mind our own business. People will come and tell you all the negative things that you wouldn't love to hear. They will come and heap abuses in you. They will intimate you . They will accuse you. They will mock the small start-up. But the first line of the scripture says make it an ambition to lead a QUIET life. Quiet means being deaf to those Ill words. Just move on.

Never mind what people say, they will always have what to say. Never mind what they do...you also have what to do. Speaking about others with all sorts of rumors means your emotions depends on others. Don't waste your time speaking about the success of others with demotivating attitude; you have your road to success. Rework all that is before you. Respect is achieved from such a quiet industrious spirit. What is in you is enough. Focus on your inner energies other than the frequencies that others produce. Focus on the roles that you are supposed to play. Mind your business. The best in you comes from the degree of focus on the inner self.

                    GOD BLESS YOU

THE LORD NEEDS YOUR HEART.

*WITHIN SCRIPTURE.*  *Matthew:15.8*   "'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. .9 They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.'" -------------------------------------------- When there is trouble with an entire church, individual brethrens tend to loose their focus on christ. When a brethren has got trouble with another brethren, they tend to stop fellowship and quit community prayer and community fasting from that particular fraternity. When christians are few, some servants tend to render poor services in terms of worship, the word, and all the necessary preparations for services. Such shows that the heart is not with christ. The heart is, with brethrens and people. We tend to loose the best from God because of the limited submission of our souls to Him. True worship cannot be unless the heart Is with christ. we cannot serve God if our hearts are not focused to Him alone. We cannot serve God if our hearts ar

URGENCY   James 4:13  Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15 Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that. -------------------------------------------- It is not proper for man to thinketh that he got all the time. There has been an allocation of time to everyone and everyone will leave as their time is done.  Bit even within the time itself, there are different allocation of time that have been made as the man walks through this world. There has been a time allocated to happiness and there has been a time allocated to sorrow. The man has not been created to be happy for all his life time and neither has he been created to be sorrowful all his life time. Even in the events of matters, some things hav

CHRIST OUR INTERCESSOR

-
CHRIST OUR INTERCESSOR .   Hebrews:7.24  but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. .25 Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. --------------------------------------------  One precious privilege that those Christ calls His brothers and sisters is that He himself stands before God - our father to intercede.  As He is a first hand intercesor before God, He is able to save those He intercedes for. He is able to call upon the name of His father - our God to come to our rescue. But with one condition,for those who run to God through Him . Running to God through Him is what is very crucial here. Running to him through prayers. When we pray, Christ in heaven prays for us the more. When we intercede, Christ in heaven intercedes for us the more.  In as much as God needs a relationship from you, He needs you to run to Him. It has also been well programmed that Christ the great intercesor will
