Whom Are You Trusting?

Whom Do You Trust?

And they were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them, for they cried out to God in the battle. He heeded their prayer, because they put their trust in Him. Then they took away their livestock--fifty thousand of their camels, two hundred and fifty thousand of their sheep, and two thousand of their donkeys--also one hundred thousand of their men; for many fell dead, because the war was God's. And they dwelt in their place until the captivity. - 1 Chronicles 5:20-22 

When we cry out to GOD in times of trouble He hears our prayer if we put our trust in Him. If we place out trust in Him we will leave the burden with Him. Then GOD will take over the situation. He takes over the battle. Then the battle belongs to the LORD. GOD always wins! Therefore we will be on the winning side!!

Thus says the LORD: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the LORD. For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, And shall not see when good comes, But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, In a salt land which is not inhabited. "Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit. - Jeremiah 17:5-8 

The next time you have a problem, call on the LORD JESUS. Pour out your heart to Him and put your entire trust in Him. Keep doing this until your burden is lifted. Now the battle is the LORD'S. Now you can stand still and see the victory! 

PALM READING

Palm Reading

If you are one who is interested in knowing about your future through Palm Readers and Horoscopes, this is for you!

The GOD of creation Who also created you says that you are inscribed in the Palm of His hand! 

Your life is not written in your palm.

"Can a woman forget her nursing child, 

And not have compassion on the son of her womb?

 Surely they may forget, 

Yet I will not forget you.

 See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands;

 Your walls are continually before Me.

 Isaiah 49:15-16 

JESUS the Good Shepherd also said that none can pluck His sheep from His hand.

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

 "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;

 neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

 "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all;

 and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

 "I and My Father are one." 

John 10:27-30 

It is therefore prudent for you to place your life in the hand of your Creator.

He is also your Heavenly Father. His love for you is pure and unconditional.

He has given you a free will to decide for yourself.

Make the right decision to entrust your life into His hands.

You will experience His peace.

Imitation

IMITATION

Imitation gold looks like gold but is not the real thing.

Imitating or mimicking the speech or actions of others is not an honourable thing to do.

that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. - Hebrews 6:12  

Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ. - 1 Corinthians 11:1  

Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. - Ephesians 5:1-2 

These Scriptures do not mean that we should imitate the speech and actions of people of faith like Abraham and Paul or even the LORD Himself. We are encouraged to imitate the faith of the faithful - to follow their very  lives of faith to the end. 

that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honour, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, - 1 Peter 1:7 

Anything that is not real gold will be exposed when put through the fire and tested.

Similarly the heart of an individual is revealed when he or she goes through difficult times.
It is our faith that will be tested. Faith is the connection of each individual's heart to the LORD JESUS.

It is dangerous to pretend to be someone else or mimic their outward actions.

Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches." Also there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?" Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. - Acts 19:13-17 

Tares (weeds) n a wheat field resemble the wheat plants. They are allowed to grow together until harvest time when they are separated. JESUS spoke the following parable.
