Is God a god of Religion, or is He the God of Life?

Religion separate people while the issues of life that all people share in common, bring them together.

It is the will of God that we live peaceful with our neighbors, with the understanding that some will make it difficult to do so.  However, we must make efforts to give others the same respect we would want them to give us. This prevents negative views of others based on personal beliefs that are judgmental and mistrustful. Such things lead to fear that produces hate toward others that can cause problems in our communities. God is of Life, Love, and Peace

When people come together and discuss their differences based on life issues that are shared, it brings about successful changes.

Prayer Conditions our Character

Healing come through prayers for broken hearts and for physical needs, in many ways. 

Today let us touch heaven with our prayers.  There will always be a need to pray for our family and friends, and for those who ask for our prayers.

God is a spirit. Those who connect with him receive spiritual characteristic traits he possess; loving and caring.

Prayer produces happiness, kindness, peacefulness, hopefulness, gentleness, trustworthy, and the things God requires from each of us.

God’s Desires for Us are Complete Happiness, Good health and Prosperity.

Biblical:

Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper, and be in health even as your soul prospers. (3 John 2)

Blessings from God

If evil people know how to give good gifts to their children, how much

more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

(Matthew 7:11)

 A Delayed Answer to a Prayer Request

Delayed answers from God means the person making

the request must keep asking until the answer is granted.

Biblical teaching:

For everyone that ask receive, and he that seek find, and to

him that knock, it shall be opened.  (Matthew 7:8)

Note the words seek and knock: they indicate, the person

making the request should never give up.

Guarantee: God is able to back every promise he make.

God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man,

 that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? 

Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

 (Numbers 23:19)

We Communicate with God through Prayer

Continuous prayers to God strengthen our relationship with him.

God gives knowledge, wisdom, and understanding to those who

have a relationship with him.  Therefore, their minds are competent.

Their judgments are right.  And he provides them with protection.

Biblical:

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory:

No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. (Psalm 84:11)

God Give Power to Create Wealth

Knowledge = Power

We receive from God our educational skills and talents.

Biblical

Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth

and has given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion,

and to rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.

(Ecclesiastes 5:19)

The Battle Is The Lord's

You will probably agree, we have very serious problems in our countries. Everyone I have spoken with is tired of war, and loss of lives, and money.

We have been encouraged by generations before us, to pray in times of troubles.

There is no doubt we are living in troubling times. Too many people’ blood has been shed on battlefields and in other places. Sicknesses and Diseases are increasing, despite all the money put in scientific research to find cures. Violence in homes and elsewhere is out of control.

Those in leadership positions are abusing their power. Many of them have no compassion for the people they were elected to serve. Selfishness and greed is a problem in our governments and in other places of financial interests. These are international problems.

Let’s stay connected. Bind with the chain of prayer.

We are not defined by belief or by faith nor religion.

We are family.

God bless you.

The Weapon called COURAGE

Courage comes from a spiritual force within us that makes us determined to continue our journey to reach a goal that we have set before us.
There are times when it becomes difficult to continue when situations occurs that causes us to suffer some great challenges that requires lots of sacrifices; but despite the difficulties we endure, we don’t take our eyes off our goals.


 If we get knocked down, we get up! If we stagger, we find our balance. When others are critical of us, and say evil and mean spirited things about us, we shake it off; and keep running and never stop until we reach our goal.

All of the negative things we face, while trying to reach our goals are weapons used to prevent us from reaching them. We have a weapon that will blow every one used against us away. That weapon is called COURAGE. It comes from faith in ourselves, and the belief that nothing can prevent us from achieving our dreams.

 “For with God nothing shall be impossible” (Gabriel an angel St Luke 1: 37 K.J.V) When God performs acts that are out of the normal occurrence, we call them miracles. They are the impossibilities having been made possible through the work of supernatural power. However, God doesn’t view his power as miracles, because with him all things are possible.

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 54: 17 (K.J.V)

Things We Hate that God Hates

Many of those who are religious people are practicing this same behavior that  they condemn others for.

A Two Faces Attitude

An Arrogant Attitude

False Rumors

False Witnesses

Hands that Destroys Innocent Lives

Lying

Snobbish Behavior

Troublemakers

Evil imaginations causes harm to others.

Such things do not dwell in the mind of 

a righteous person.

Lord Make Me Better

Lord Make Me Better
Father God,

Help me to do the things that please you;

That I will treat every person with respect, and not judge others. Help me to see my own weakness and correct the mistakes I make.

Increase my wisdom, to know what is right, that my thoughts and judgments are guided by righteousness.

If I am to love my neighbors as myself, as the bible says I must do; then every person is my neighbor, and I am required to accept every person, in the spirit of peace.

Lord, make me better; that I will treat all people with

kindness, in the spirit of love and peace. Amen

The Earth Reveals God's Power

God thunders marvelously with his voice;

great things does he, which we cannot comprehend.

For he says to the snow, be thou on the earth;

likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain

of his strength.

He seals up the hand of every man;

that all men may know his work.

Job 37:5,6,7 (K.J.V)
