STAND FOR THE RIGHT

Daniel 3:16

 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. 17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us from your hand, O king. 18 But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.”
--------------------------------------------
One nice phrase I like about the above scripture is the one of ," God we serve is able to save us from it, and ....even if he does not... , we will not serve your god..."

The statement shows how firm the three men had been in regards to their faith and the wrong that they were told to do. They had made up their minds to never follow the wrong whether death or life beacons. 
They were all surrounded by many people who had made up to it to save their lives by doing the wrong that the king requested. But they never looked at how they stood out among the many people who were all doing the same thing.

There are people in our lives who come up and push us towards the wrong paths. They push us towards what is not our journey. Well...at times their push may not be to the wrong sinful desire, but just to deviate you from the paths that lead direct to your dreams.

As Christians, we all may have had such scenarios as someone trying to pursued us in doing wrong. Even today we see it among governments, the might pursued the weak towards accepting wrong things as good. Yes such forces exist within us, outside us, all-over the world to government levels. Just within our hearts, there are forces that whisper the wrong doctrine to us and want us to follow. The voices remind you of the "fun time" you had before you were saved and that if you could only go back to that life, "happiness" will come back.

But regardless of the voices you hear and regardless of where and who says it you got to stand for the right. You need to take in the doctrine of the spirit. You need to do the right thing. It may temporarily feel weight - taking on the right thing against the wrong thing, but the fruit of such actions and everlasting and rewarding. 
God is happy with the son who pushes rightful buttons regardless of the wrong voices. He is happy with you if you stand for the right. Just be like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Just try to emulate the spirit that these three men had. Try to stand up courageously and say no to the wrong. God will always be on your side. I mean why would God not take your side if you stood up for the right thing? The eyes of God are on the righteous and his hears are attentive to their prayers.

                    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
