Window 1878- pray for those that hurt you.

Luke 6:27 “ But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.”

God says to pray for your enemies, which is to have no enemies… But when people hurt us, it is easy to make them our enemies and have thoughts of anger and hatred toward them…The saying “ hurt people hurt” is so true and all of us have hurt someone in some way, and many times unintentional and unknowingly.

But if we look deep with Christ-like thinking, God is telling us that those who spew evil and hatred toward us, are under attack by darkness, to which they cannot see or understand their evil ways… and those that cannot understand the darkness that is encompassing them will believe their actions are justified.

We cannot accept Jesus and live in an evil mind. So we must pray for those that spew anger and rage toward us… because they do know not what they do, and they will not make it to Heaven. God wants all of us to help one another, so we all make it home to him, and sometimes the only way we can help, is to pray.

We are no different from the evil-doer if we return thoughts of anger and rage toward them; even if it is just in our thoughts. Prayer is a conversation with God, so when we pray for those who have wounded us, we are asking God to work on their heart, to help them see his light and turn away from evil, so they don’t end up in Hell.

Window 1875 – Are you living by your flesh or your spirit

Romans 8;12-13 So then brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

The fruits of the spirit are; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. When we align with God and live our life with the mind of our spirit, we have inner peace. But when we live in the mind of our flesh… we will never be content, and will always be seeking a temporary high to fulfill the dark yearnings, that are not aligned with God.

We can claim to be Christian and go to church, go to confession, and mention Gods name…but If our thoughts and actions are self-absorbed and focused on riches, sexual pleasures, wicked schemes, negativity, and foul language… we are not Christ-like at all, we are just more Satan like… And we must never forget, that Satan’s only goal is for us to spend eternity with him.

God wants us to a have a fruitful life and spend it in eternity with him…but in order for that to be, we must first be a good fruit.

Window 1873- Time is running out

Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to me “ Lord, Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my father who is in heaven.

Every minute of our day is important… our time is short here. We do not know when we will take our last breath… so it is imperative that we know where we are going to spend our eternity.

Don’t put it off, don’t assume that just because you waltz into church once a week and then live your life for yourself the rest of the week, that you are saved. Going to church, is not a get out of hell free card, only Jesus is!

If you have not accepted Jesus and repented, do it now… and if you were saved and have back slid to old evil ways… get saved again, repent, repent and repent and live right.

For you only God knows the hour of our last breath. So use the time you have NOW, to get ready for eternity.

Window 1872 – Get in the word daily

Hebrews 4:12 “ for the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and and joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intention of the heart.”

The Bible is God’s written voice and we must fuel our spirit daily with his word, in order to be able to follow his word, in this evil world.

If we do not fuel our spirit, we will be empty and unable to battle the enemy, therefore leaving us vulnerable to be filled up with the negativity around us.

Start your day by putting on the armor of God, by reading his word, or by watching a short message. The word of God daily, is more important than the caffeine we wait in long lines for.

~WOW~

Window 1870 – There are only two pathways after we pass away.

There are good, kind, generous and loving people in HELL! We can do everything right in our life, such as, loving our neighbor, helping others in need, going to church, tithing, and just loving everyone… but none of that matters if we do not believe that JESUS, came and died for our sins to save us… and then live our lives how he instructed us to live.

For we cannot say we love Jesus and then live an un-Godly life style and expect to live in Heaven… and if you really the Bible, our life Manuel, it’s clearly stated.

I would like to share a wonderful pastor out of Oklahoma, who teaches the word in a relatable way, and also translates the Bible from Greek, to words and meanings that have different meanings in English. His name is Alan Nolan, and you can find all of his teaching on YouTube… he is amazing.

~WOW~

Window 1869- Don’t step back in the past.

Isaiah 43:18- Remember not the former things,nor consider the things of old.

When we truly begin to walk with Jesus, we change… and with that change, turbulence will ensue between our earthly life and our spirit, to which the spirit becomes our priority, leaving our earthly habits and connections to people of our past, in our past.

Darkness will use our past, with thoughts of guilt, sadness and longing, with persuasion that we are missing out or hurting others by moving forward… when in reality, forward is what keeps us closer to God, which is the relationship that the devil wants to destroy.

-WOW~

Window 1866- miracles

Daniel 3:24-25 – “Did we not cast three men bound into the fire?

God never runs out of miracles… we must not put our faith or hope in anyone but him. No matter what the outcome is for our wishes… he knows the best route for our personal journey.

Sometimes the miracle is hidden from the perception of what we long for, but is revealed to us later in our spirit.

~WOW-

Window 1865 – God speaks

Ezekiel 3:10…Son of man, all the words that I speak to you receive in your heart and hear with your ears.

The unexpected profound thoughts that penetrate our heart, are not our own… they are God speaking to us.

Don’t let darkness take away God’s guidance and encouragement, by brushing it off and doubting what you heard is true… for he speaks to all of us, in our spirit.

~WOW~

Window 1864- There is no get into heaven free card

Titus 2:11-15- For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people…

If we accept the gift of Jesus’s sacrifice to save us, but do not change our behavior and evil ways… we are rejecting his Gift.

When we change our sinful ways and strive to act as Jesus would, we are showing him gratitude for the pain he suffered, to save us from hell… accept the gift! For it is the only way to eternal peace.

~WOW~
