[garden-of-thoughts-fruit-of-lips]

Matthew 10:7

As you go, preach, saying: ‘The Kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.

Note the time the Devil showed Jesus all the kingdoms of the world (Luke 4:5) "in an instant of time" saying that the world has been given over to him and he could give it to whomever he chose, and the Devil chose Christ. The Devil said to Christ, "I will give you all this authority and their glory" (Luke 4:5-8).

Who is the ruler of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4), is it not the Devil (Revelation 12:9)? And what are the inhabitants of the earth saying? Are they not saying that Jesus is God, giving Jesus all his authority and their glory? The Devil wanted Jesus to do an act of worship before him by means of the Devil's image of the heavens (Isaiah 14: 12-14) and earth by giving breath of life to it by means of the fruit of his lips (Hebrews 13:15). But note how Jesus replied when being tempted by the Tempter (Matthew 4:1), "Then Jesus said to him: 'Go away, Satan! For it is written: 'It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service' (Matthew 4:10)." Because it was God at the beginning who created the heavens and earth and said let there be light through His Spirit (Genesis 1: 1-3).

Read one Bible verse or read them all! 📖📚

1 John 2:16

because everything in the world—the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the showy display of one’s means of life—does not originate with the Father, but originates with the world

Isaiah 29:13

Jehovah says: “This people approach me with their mouth And they honor me with their lips, But their heart is far removed from me; And their fear of me is based on commands of men that they have been taught.

1 Thessalonians 3:5

is why, when I could bear it no longer, I sent to learn of your faithfulness, in case somehow the Tempter might have tempted you, and our labor might have turned out to be in vain.

2 Corinthians 11:14

And no wonder, for Satan himself keeps disguising himself as an angel of light.

Revelation 12:12

On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.”

2 Corinthians 11:3

But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent seduced Eve by its cunning, your minds might be corrupted away from the sincerity and the chastity that are due the Christ.

Revelation 13:13

And it performs great signs, even making fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the sight of mankind.

Luke 10:18

At that he said to them: “I see Satan already fallen like lightning from heaven.

HELP!! IF YOUR CATHOLIC OR KNOW CATHOLICISM PLS HELP!!

My friend is having a confirmation in early Feb, I’ll be out of town but i wanted to get her a gift! I’m not involved with any kind of church, especially not Catholic ones so I have zero clue where to start.

When I search confirmation gifts, lots of jewelry comes up but I think she’ll be getting a lot of that? I don’t think a Bible or rosary is appropriate either, but I don’t have enough context for what else to get?? I know her mainly through ballet but I’d rather get her something personal/special to her event.

PLS HELP IF YOU KNOW WHAT I SHOULD GET!! Money doesn’t really matter except that it needs to be here sooner rather than later and also I’m not necessarily rich. Thank you in advance for any advice!!

VERSE OF THE DAY 

======================

+ Philippians 3:13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it,  but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,

=======================

** SAY THIS BEFORE YOU READ; HERE’S SOME CHRISTIAN TRUTHS **

I AM NEW IN CHRIST 

I AM FREE IN JESUS 

I AM HEALED 

I AM COMPASSIONATE 

======================

READ TIME: 8 Minutes & 17 Seconds

======================

THOUGHTS:

======================

    It's hard to forget our past; it's hard to say I forget who I used to be. Some things are hard to forget, but God wants us to move forward and forget our past. Sometimes, people around me mention who I was, and they find it hard to move past it that was who I use to be , but that’s not who I am anymore; we must remember we are saved and filled with the Holy Spirit, the person we once were is now dead, and we have risen with Jesus Christ no longer bond but free in his name! 

     God wants us to realize that who we are isn’t who we are now, and we don’t have to remember it; yes, we need to learn things from our past, but we must forget and move forward in the person we are now, and what lies ahead, we don’t know but God does we have to allow what he's doing in our lives right now to be what we are focused on. 

  In this chapter, Paul had a moment, and he told us everything he found valuable about himself at one time. 

    Verse 5-6. I was circumcised when I was eight days old. I am a pure-blooded citizen of Israel and a member of the tribe of Benjamin—a real Hebrew if there ever was one! I was a member of the Pharisees, who demanded the strictest obedience to the Jewish law. 6 I was so zealous that I harshly persecuted the church. And as for righteousness, I obeyed the law without fault.

     He tells us why he could have all this confidence because of his identity. He was a pureblood Citizen of Israel, a member of the tribe of Benjamin, and a member of the Pharisees; he was everything. At least, he thought so, but after he met Christ on Damascus Road, he realized all those things are meaningless and what is important is his identity in Christ NOW.

    Verse 7: I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of Christ's actions. 

  So, you see, he forgot about his past because he realized it was nothing compared to the love of Jesus. He realized that Jesus was the only person that means anything, and that’s what we must think about our past that it is nothing and that it is forgettable because who we used to be isn’t who we are now; we are people of God, and that is the only thing we should be concern over not who we use to be ,not what we use to do, and of course share your testimony share who use to be to others so they may see the glory of God but don’t take pride in who you use to be because it’s nothing there but darkness, and darkness is of the enemy.

 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

     Here's another verse that tells us we are a new creation, and the old has passed away. We are no longer these people who wander in the dark and are blinded by our actions. We are now in him; don’t allow your past to disrupt your future, and don’t allow your old life to stop you from achieving a new life. Jesus paid the price for us to be new in him; every day, we must thank the lord for making us new.

   Our past is what we used to be; we no longer have any ties to it; we are free in Jesus; when someone mentions your past, tell them Jesus has cleansed me and changed me and forgotten about my past; why can’t you ,don’t get mad stand proud of who you are now and know that you’re walking in the light ,no longer full of darkness. Tell them, yes, I used to do these things, but these things aren’t me anymore. I have a new identity in Jesus' name. Don’t let people define who you are because you’re no longer that; you are a new creation in Jesus.

   Philippians 3:13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do is forget what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead

   We are told that we didn’t do this on our own; he said to forget what lies behind us and go to what is ahead, which is the future. People will mention your past to tear you down; people will mention the past to kill your joy, but don’t let them do it; rebuke them and walk forth in your new calling in Jesus. Jesus didn’t fill you with all this joy and peace just so people can disrupt it, and he gave you peace to walk in his name; he gave you joy to replace the hurt that you endured; you don’t have to endure alone anymore you have the lord of Jesus helping you through your new walk in him. 

   Isaiah 43:18- 19: Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of the old. Behold, I am doing something new; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

   It tells us here don’t remember the former things but consider them old; our past is our past; a lot of people like to hide who they once were, but the lord is saying don’t hide who you are; just forget who you are it is old now it’s no longer tied to you let it go. What happens is we get so lost in trying to prove ourselves to family and friends that we are DIFFERENT now, but let your walk speak for you, let your words speak for you, let your life speak for you, and most of all, let GOD SPEAK FOR YOU. 

   ***Today, we discussed letting our past go and not allowing what others think to destroy our future. Some of us allow people to destroy our destiny because we allow their words to attach to us and bother us; people are always going to have something to say because they are allowing the enemy to use them; don’t allow what they say to affect you allow what God is speaking to you to resonate in you.

  Isaiah 43:25: “I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins

   The Holy Spirit is speaking to us this day; he’s saying don’t allow your past to hurt your future; remember I have blotted out all your sins, and I don’t remember what you did, how you used to act, what you used to do, I know you now and who you are now is my child. Many of us have been abandoned and left isolated, but God is saying you’re not alone anymore. I am walking with you; you're not alone. I am here for you. The Holy Spirit is saying whatever you go through, I’m walking with you; even though you walk through the valley of shadows of death, fear no evil because my rod and my staff will comfort you; you are not alone; YOU have a comforter now in me, if you feel you are alone and that everything is stacking against remember you have Jesus. ©Seer~ Prophetess Lee

PRAYER

=====================

Heavenly Father, thank you for this day. I ask you to be with us as we walk through our day and help us not to lose sight of the plan, which is our new life with you. Lord, we ask you to help control our emotions so when someone says something about our past that we don’t come out of character; help us to remain walking in you. Lord, continue to help us through our walk, lord we love you, and we thank you for everything, in Jesus Name, Amen

Don't Worry!

It’s difficult to be content when you’re full of worry and anxiety, isn’t it? If you’re not dealing with elevated anxiety levels yourself, perhaps someone close to you is.

So, what’s the solution?

When the Apostle Paul wrote these words, he knew that the Christians in Philippi had a lot to be anxious about; in the first century, it was illegal to be a Christian. Paul himself wrote this letter while in a Roman prison because of the Gospel; he had plenty of reasons to be anxious. Roman prisoners like Paul likely didn’t know where their next meals were coming from and had to rely on the generosity of their friends and family to keep them alive. I, for one, start to get a little anxious when I haven’t eaten for a while. Paul had this and many other reasons to give in to worry and anxiety, but instead of worrying and getting overwhelmed by his situation, he chose to pray with a heart of gratitude.

These verses promise a supernatural peace from God that will be placed as a guard around your mind and heart, meaning that God’s peace will guard your thoughts and emotions against catastrophizing the future.

Worrying is like praying for the worst-case scenario to happen; it’s an act of faith and a killer of contentment. But prayer is also an act of faith where you decide to trust God with all your cares and concerns. So, instead of worrying, why not try praying?

What do the different highlighter colors in your Bible stand for? If anything? :)

Thank you for asking!

💜 Purple is conquering anxiety

🩷 Pink is God’s love and forgiveness

🩵 Blue is sin

💚 Green is God’s power and the Kingdom of Heaven

💛 Yellow (there’s no yellow highlight 🥲) is miracles of Christ and history of Christ

🧡 And orange is prophecy!

I’m going to be adding more colours soon as there’s plenty more things I need to highlight and remember!

“ please keep my heart pure and tender? ”

[warriorsofgodchannel]

The Bible warns against greed and the relentless pursuit of fortune and fame, emphasizing the spiritual dangers they bring. In 1 Timothy 6:10, it states, "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil," cautioning that many have wandered from their faith due to greed, causing themselves great sorrow. Similarly, Jesus reminds us in Mark 8:36, "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?" These passages highlight that chasing wealth and fame at the expense of righteousness leads to emptiness and spiritual loss, urging believers to seek God’s kingdom above all else.

🎬The Dark Side of Greed

Art Work: BIG JART SERVICES

[preacherman1967]

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding (Proverbs 3:5).

When you learn to trust the Lord, you will begin to have a sense of rest in the Lord knowing that he has everything under control even when life seems to be out of control. Trusting God will get you to the point where you make a decision to trust in Him and NOT in your own logic and understanding.

As Christians, we must make a decision to trust Him regardless of how scary the situation may seem. Trusting God doesn’t prevent you from being in uncomfortable situations but it does allow you to be placed in a position where you seek the Lord’s presence, provisions, guidance and promises.

I encourage you to stop stressing yourself out losing sleep, being weary, anxious, worried, depressed and sad. Don’t try to understand the ways of God because it is impossible for you to understand His decisions and ways! (Romans 11:33). The natural man cannot understand the things of God. God's ways are not man's ways, they are past finding out and this is why we must make a decision to trust our all knowing God.

Christians are supposed to prioritize mercy

[garden-of-thoughts-fruit-of-lips]

The one who misleads is the false prophet. The false prophet represents the tail of the dragon mentioned in Revelation 12:4 "...and its tail drags a third of the stars of heaven..."

As stars shine as light in the heavens. So the false prophet but its light will be misleading. Therefore, when the heavens shake. The stars that do not belong will fall to the earth.

Mark 13: 24,25
