Going away from God empty handed

Going away from God empty handed


His glory, His honor , His splendor, is not such
that we are to come with pockets full of treasure,
or lands full of gold. No His majesty, has acquainted
itself with my poverty. He does not interest Himself,
in my fame and accolades, But He stoops low to me
to accept a heart full of pain, a heart full of desiring Him.
He refuses not the humble and poor in spirit, but He sends
away the proud and rich in their own discretion empty handed.

Our King owns cattle on a thousand hills, He says, I declare the
order of the riches of the world, I give them to those I see fit,
Therefore the glory of our wealth doesn't interest Him,
why should it? When they are His? But, the one very thing
God has given me, the one I own is to love Him freely, this is what God desires this is what He applauds, indeed I am never left empty handed when giving to Father everything He has given to me when knitting me together in the womb of my mother.

Wealth does not last, nor does beauty endure, but my Fathers
words has given me much worth, indeed the teaching of a guiding father has protected me, those who come to God with hearts open will receive all they need. But those who hold onto the pleasures of this world, will walk away empty handed.

Let our brothers see, and be amazed, alas let our sisters reckon and perhaps God can influence them to change the path of their ways…

The underlying message of all - Is faith, hope and love

The underlying message of all – Is faith, hope and love Introduction The topic in discussion is one that explores the essence of what God is trying to say to His church, and also very importantly the spirit in how it is being said. We can do a major injustice to scripture, the very word of God breathed - to miss what it is saying and how it is saying it (The spirit in how it is said). There has been centuries of study on the word of God, study though can only do so much in understanding who God is. The main purpose of the word of God is to know Him (God) intimately as it is pouring out characteristics, poetry, wisdom and feelings of God’s love towards us. By studying the word of God, to know about Him and failing to get to know Him creates one of the biggest failures to the purpose of the church/bride and body of Christ. The understanding of our place in a world through the word of God, makes one humble, equal with all others and servant along with others to the master and Gr...

Our foundation

Our foundation We understand that a foundation is the basis that carries everything which rests upon it. God made Christ our strong foundation, a solid rock upon which our lives can be built. This metaphorical language of the rock, can be known as Gods guiding word, to teach us what is good. Jesus is that word, and the word made flesh. The word of God does not fail to instruct us, in any aspect of life - whether it touches a element of life directly, or whether the thing which we need guidance on does not get answered directly we can know through the mind of Christ - what we must think, speak and how we must act on any situation. The word of God, helps us to live in our relationships with humans, it teaches us how to please God, through obedience rather than sacrifice. Gods word must be the foundation to every decision, thought or action we undertake because in it He ensures our success through the indwelling of His word. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall a...

My powerful choice

My powerful choice My powerful choice holds a certain truth, either I choose to reach out at a hand stretched out, or ignore the call to enter life. My choice is left with two, not one, not 3, not a thousand why would it be so many? Life is not complicated, it is simple it is truth. No, life's power come from only 2 choices presented. A choice of life or death? A choice of drink or thirst? A choice of light or dark? A choice of fountain springs or deserted seas? A choice of Christ or the world? A choice of relationship or religion? You choose… This choice of only 2 leads into worlds where each pays a wage, a wage of either death or eternal life.
