ORIENTATION OF THE GODLY

ORIENTATION OF THE GODLY

 1 Peter 3:9

 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.
--------------------------------------------
Living in life is swaying on a platform of good and bad. It is dwindling in the airs of darkness and light. It is seeing day and night at the same time. But how do we know that something is good? We know that something is good by knowing there is a bad replica.

It is obvious that good and bad people present in life. There are people that will come and insult you. There are people that will come to be good but will present their ill intensions in the relationship.

Of course when insulted, your mind desires a same measure of insult to be bounced back to the person as a way of quick compensation.
But the scripture has lined up. What is godly should be presented as godly. You are to pay the insults with a blessing. We can only know that you are godly with such experience. You can only prove your inner godly man when insults come and you present a blessing. We can know that light dwells in you when darkness comes and you present light. That is the orientation of the godly.

You as a child of God have to live as God dictates and not as the world dictates. You have to live as the light.
Pray for those that rise against you. Bless those that curse you. It is in God's place to pay those that have gone against you. 
If you need God to fight for you , you need to keep the light bright within.

                     GOD BLESS YOU

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...
