It is better to live for love, than to die for pride
There is a saying that goes “it’s better to rule in hell, than to serve in Heaven.” I don’t think people really understand what hell is like if that’s something someone would proudly say. Hubris is a crazy thing and I’ve taken a few lumps because of it over the years. There is no ruler in hell, it was created for Satan and his angels for eternal punishment, The lake of fire is not a place you’d…

Abortion is Murder & Unbiblical
The Bible does not use the word abortion. How could it? The term itself as a procedure wasn't invented yet! However, the Bible does cover: 
Humanity's inherent value and rights as (uniquely among creation) made in the image of God
Murder
Child/infant murder as something abhorrent to God
Life's beginnings, indirectly (although that also has biological support) 
Legal ramifications of killing a child in the womb 
How God sees and interacts with children in the womb 
How we as His followers are meant to treat children 
What He expects us to do for the defenseless and vulnerable (i.e., the most defenseless and vulnerable human imaginable is the one in the womb) 
And how the question of following Him and His Word is what makes or breaks the difference between a Christian and someone who claims the name but is tragically unsaved  Below are some verses and some additional explication (partial credit: @glowsticks-and-jesus)  
Proverbs 31:8 
Luke 1:44 
2nd Kings 17:17 
Jeremiah 19:5 
Genesis 9:6 
Exodus 21:22-25 
Matthew 7:20 - 23 
John 15:14 
1st John 1:5-10, 2:3-6 
Exodus 20:13 
Mark 10:13-15 Leviticus 20:3-5 (https://biblehub.com/hebrew/mizzaro_2233.htm) 
Matthew 18:10, 14
Psalm 22:10
Jacob & Esau, John the Baptist, Samson, etc. 
Judges 16:17  Glowsticks-and-Jesus Collection:
"Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 'Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, and before you were born, I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.'"Jeremiah 1:4-5
"The Lord called me from the womb, from the body of my mother he named my name."Isaiah 49:1
John the Baptist leaped in Elizabeth’s womb when Mary greeted her cousin (Luke 1:39-45), an example that babies in utero are responsive human beings already aware of the outside world.
The righteous Hebrew midwives at the time of Moses pleased God by saving babies deemed unworthy of life by the authorities of their day (Ex. 1:15-21).
 As an additional note -- these references are included above, but worth a second mention -- it's plain that child sacrifice - child murder - is something that God abhors and explicitly does not command. I'd look here (https://biblehub.com/jeremiah/19-5.htm) and here (https://biblehub.com/2_kings/17-17.htm) and check out the cross-references as well. Likewise, there is direct support for laws against murder and the protection of the unborn (up to capital punishment) in the Bible (Genesis 9:6; Exodus 21:22-25  -- an additional reference here included about the common misunderstanding of the latter verses: https://www.str.org/w/what-exodus-21-22-says-about-abortion).
In summary -- it's possible (although, I believe, it does deprive its proponents of a foundational basis for the value of life) to be both secular and anti-abortion. But it is not possible for a Christian who truly understands their faith, their God, and His Word to be pro-abortion.

Proverbs 6:16-19 NKJV 16 These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: 17 A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, 19 A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.

The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus
19 Jesus said, “There was a rich man who always dressed in the finest clothes. He was so rich that he was able to enjoy all the best things every day. 20 There was also a very poor man named Lazarus. Lazarus’ body was covered with sores. He was often put by the rich man’s gate. 21 Lazarus wanted only to eat the scraps of food left on the floor under the rich man’s table. And the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 “Later, Lazarus died. The angels took him and placed him in the arms of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 He was sent to the place of death and was in great pain. He saw Abraham far away with Lazarus in his arms. — Luke 16:19-23 | Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) Easy-to-Read Version Bible Copyright © 2006 by Bible League International Cross References: Proverbs 31:22; Ezekiel 16:49; Matthew 11:23; Matthew 15:27; Matthew 26:71; Luke 16:24; John 1:18; John 13:23

Why Free Will Doesn't Mean What You Think It Does
Many people believe that free will gives us unlimited freedom, but Scripture suggests otherwise: we’re given the freedom to choose between two distinct paths, not infinite options.
Tumblr media
Free will, from a biblical standpoint, means choosing between God’s way and the enemy’s way—life or death (Deuteronomy 30:19), blessings or curses (Deuteronomy 11:26), commitment or lukewarm faith (Revelation 3:16). In God’s eyes, there’s no grey area, only two clear directions.
God calls us to live on purpose. Purpose isn’t just about existing; it’s about living with intention and direction according to God’s will.
“We are born looking like our parents, but we die looking like our decisions.”- Pastor Joshua McCauley
Each decision shapes our lives, and with the freedom God gives us, we decide if we follow His path or attempt to make our own way.
Purpose is the reason we exist , we all strive to figure out what our purpose is on this earth and how to fulfill it. all of this must mean something right? I was brought here for something right?
"So, what is my purpose?"
Well, it's not something we create on our own. A purposeful life is a gift from Jesus, one we can’t achieve just through behavior or goals. It’s a life given, not earned. Through Jesus, we receive grace, freeing us from sin’s power and aligning us with God’s purpose.
Proverbs 29:18 tells us, “Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law” (NKJV).
In Hebrew, ḥāzôn or “revelation” here means prophetic vision or God’s guidance. Without it, life becomes chaotic, like a river spilling beyond its banks. True happiness (ashrei in Hebrew) is rooted in following God’s direction, bringing peace and purpose that go beyond surface-level happiness. Keeping (shamar in Hebrew) His law is about actively choosing and protecting our relationship with God’s Word. This dedication to God’s guidance brings a stability and joy that temporary pleasures can’t match.
“So Why Doesn’t God Stop Me from Messing Up?”
A common question: “If free will isn’t total freedom, why doesn’t God stop me from making bad choices?” God, like a loving parent, warns us but lets us experience the outcomes of our decisions. Think of it like a parent warning a child not to touch a hot stove; if the child ignores the warning, they’ll get burned. It’s a lesson in trust and obedience.
Psalm 81:11-12 explains it: “But My people would not listen to Me… so I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.” God respects our choices because forced obedience isn’t real love. He wants us to choose His path willingly, knowing that His guidance is meant to protect, not control.
In the end, God offers two paths: His way, leading to purpose and peace, or the enemy’s path, leading to chaos. True freedom isn’t the power to do whatever we want, but the wisdom to choose the way that brings lasting joy and fulfillment.

Such great words from Paster Tim Peterson of Christian Family Church in Minnesota, USA this photo is.
Whether you know this or not, God wants to bless us. He really does. Each & every one of us. His desire is not for us to have little or to be poor. He wants us to live in abundance of more than enough so that we can be generous & help others, in the name of Jesus.
Some verses about blessing: Deuteronomy 8:18 Deuteronomy 30:15-16 Psalm 34:8 Proverbs 10:22 Proverbs 16:20 Malachi 3:10 Ephesians 3:20 Philippians 4:19

It Depends on You
MEMORY VERSE OF THE WEEK
=========================
+ Proverbs 16:7 When a man's ways please the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
=========================
VERSE OF THE DAY
========================
+ Romans 12:18 If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
=========================
SUBJECT: It Depends on You
=========================
** SAY THIS BEFORE YOU READ; HERE’S SOME CHRISTIAN TRUTHS **
I AM HANDLING IT IN GOD’S WAY
I AM SECURE IN GOD
I AM THOUGHTFUL
I AM LIVING IN GOD’S WAY
=========================
READ TIME: 6 Minutes & 57 Seconds
=========================
THOUGHTS:
=======================
    We all know it is hard to have peace with some people. We can try our hardest to make peace, but some people don’t want peace. No matter how many ways we try to bring it to them, it just doesn’t work, for I have experienced this no matter how many times I try to apologize. I try to do the right thing; some people fight, argue, and do everything they can to make you angry or feel bad.
   We must remember that we don’t have to follow them; we can do the opposite; the verse says IT DEPENDS ON YOU, live with peace with all men. I had a problem one time with someone, and I just kept doing what I should do, but I noticed they were still upset and didn’t want to have anything to do with me, and I heard the Holy Spirit say IT DEPENDS ON YOU over and over all through the day.
    I was like God; I don’t know why this individual is mad at me but then he showed me, and I said God I was being peaceful and kind, but still he wanted me to apologize. I was so upset. I didn’t want to because I did nothing wrong, and he said it DEPENDS ON YOU, and I'm like on me; I didn’t do anything wrong ; even as I slept, I heard the Holy Spirit's voice, as I showered, I heard it AGAIN, IT DEPENDS ON YOU , I saw the individual again, and I heard it AGAIN. I said, no, no, this must be wrong; he's was rude to me, but after I prayed on it, I said, Holy Spirit, could I ask why I have to apologize?
 He said because you are walking a different path than him, you are my child, and if you want to live by the word, you must follow it. I took what he said and apologized, and It felt good, but did he accept it? No,He complained and said a lot that I did, and I apologized again and moved on past it. I did what the Holy Spirit wanted of me; sometimes that’s hard to do, and sometimes it doesn’t even seem fair, but I did what pleased God; that’s what we must do to please him.
    2 Corinthians 9:7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
   God loves it when we are cheerful and keep the peace. He loves it when we are cheerful to do it, as he says he loves it. We must do this from our hearts; many don’t want to , because some times we feel we are always right. No matter who we think we are or what title we hold, we aren't. We must learn that whatever God is telling us to do, we must do it cheerfully; maybe it's giving something away, maybe it's giving apologies; whatever it is, we must do it from the heart and not from what we think but what he thinks is right.
 
Romans 14:19 So then, let us pursue what makes for peace and mutual upbuilding.
 
Matthew 5:9: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
 
Proverbs 12:20 Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, but those who plan peace have joy.
 
These verses tell us that when we want to have peace, we will have joy, and when we are the peacemakers, we are called the sons of God, and we should pursue peace with everyone. And like I said, this is not easy, but when we allow God to be our conductor, we will be all right. We can always follow him, and he will show us the way. We often spend our days trying to be people pleasers, and we should be God pleasers . Do you think I wanted to apologize to him? I didn’t, but I did it with a heart that pleases God, and I did it because God desired me to, and i knew I needed to obedient to the spirit of God.
  Romans 8:5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
     Our main aim, our main objective should be to live according to the spirit and set our minds on that alone. Not on what makes us happy and what gratifies the flesh we always want to have a spirit of obedience and love; when we walk that way, we will always please God, what most people don’t teach on is obedience being hard, but when we say we love God we must obey him through all circumstances.
  ***Today, we talked about apologizing and pleasing God; it doesn’t feel good to apologize all the time, but when we see that the relationship or interactions, we haven’t been gratifying God and we aren’t walking in peace, we must solve that issue at all cost according to how God wants us too.
 Romans 12:1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship
  This isn’t just what we do with our body, but this is how we handle situations; we must always be a living sacrifices unto God, making him holy and acceptable in every situation we should make sure it’s acceptable to him; if you know you're not handling a situation with honor and grace ask him to give you a heart to do it , and to give you the right actions and to order your steps. When we do this, we will be at his mercy and grace. ©Seer~ Prophetess Lee
========================
PRAYER
========================
Heavenly Father, help us handle every situation the way you want. Father, if it’s a situation we aren’t handling right, please show us; if it’s something we said that’s not of you, please show us; lord we aim to please you with our body and actions; lord, continue to create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit within us, lord we are so grateful for everything, we thank you for your grace and mercy in Jesus Name Amen
========================
REFERENCES
========================
+ 1 Thessalonians 4:1 Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more.
 
+ Mark 12:33 And to love him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
 
+ 1 Corinthians 10:31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Proverbs 2:10-22
10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.
20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

Proverbs 2:8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of His saints.
Hebrews 13:5-6 Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you," 6 so that we confidently say, "The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid, what will man do to me?"
Psalm 7:1 O LORD my God, I take refuge in You; save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
Isaiah 43:1 The Lord says, “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are Mine.”
Zechariah 9:16 The LORD their God will save them in that day, as the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown, lifted like a banner over His land—
Exodus 14:14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
May you never listen to the lies of the enemy, or accept his offers of peace, lest he entice you to leave the refuge of the Lord with a promise of worldly goods which last only until he comes to take you to his own land as slaves. 2 Kings 18
May you despise and scorn the enemy who comes against you with insults and defiance toward the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, and may you lift your praise to your King as the enemy flees in the face of your resistance. 2 Kings 19
May the Lord your God deliver you from the enemy's hand so that all the kingdoms of earth will know that the Lord alone is God. 2 Kings 19
May you seek out the Lord when the enemy makes his boast against you, and turn to God in humility and repentance as you stand on His word to receive the strength and wisdom to keep your focus on Him, never once answering the enemy's accusations or responding to his defiance. 2 Kings 19
May you take root below and bear fruit above in the zeal of the Lord Almighty, knowing that He will preserve you against all that the enemy will try to do, defending and saving you for His name's sake. 2 Kings 19
May you always desire and seek out the company and fellowship of fellow believers, members of the Body of Christ, for the Lord will strengthen and encourage, exhort and provoke to good works, each member by the ministry of the Word and the moving of the Spirit through each other member. Acts 21
My child, I am your help, your strength and your shield. Trust in Me, for I hear the voice of your supplication, and you are helped. Take refuge in Me, My dear one; trust not in the strength of man, which will come to an end, or in the power of princes and principalities, which will use you for their own purposes. Look and see, My querying one, and declare to Me if a single one of the good promises which I have promised to My people have failed to come to pass. Though you be brought low, yet have I saved you, leading you by a straight way to a city with foundations which I have designed and constructed, where I am the light, that you may dwell in Me, and I in you, and you shall sing for joy in the shadow of My wings. Depend on Me, My seeking one, for I shall set a guard over you that will not fail, but will keep your mind, your tongue, and your hands from the enemy. My Spirit will instruct you on how to bring a pleasing sacrifice to Me out of the meditations of your heart, the words of your mouth, and the deeds of your hands. I long to walk with you, My loving one, and share My heart with you. Do not hide, My trembling one, for My love covers you, and when I weed the garden of your heart, it is with tenderness and prudence in order to bring out the beauty that I see. Still your spirit, My precious one, and wait before Me that you may know that I am God.
May you feel no surprise at the troubles and fiery ordeals that come upon you, as though something unusual was occurring, for through much tribulation will you enter the kingdom of God as you take up your cross and follow Him, seeking for the will of the Lord to be done, which is the wisdom and counsel of God, and brings great joy and much rejoicing before His throne. Acts 21
May you sing to the Lord a new song of praise whenever the merciful gather together. Psalm 149
May you rejoice in your Maker and be glad in your King, praising His name with dancing and making music to Him. Psalm 149
May you rejoice in the honor the Lord shows you when He crowns your humility with victory. Psalm 149
May the praise of God be in your mouth and a double-edged sword in your hand as you are obedient in carrying out God's sentence written and pronounced against the principalities and powers of the air which set themselves against the will and ways of God, to inflict vengeance on His foes and punishment on His enemies, binding their kings with fetters and their princes with shackles of iron, casting down every vain thought that exalts itself against the knowledge of Christ. Psalm 149
Though the words of a gossip are swallowed greedily by many, may you have an appetite for the living Word which was broken for you, for it will be health and strength to your heart. Proverbs 18:8

Just in case they've overlooked it.

(A couple small verses here for ya all:
‭Proverbs 6:16-19 NLT‬
[16] There are six things the Lord hates— no, seven things he detests: [17] haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, [18] a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, [19] a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family. )
God bless ya all, stay blessed and repent my dear readers daily, stay humble and follow the lord :D

The Pharisees and Sadducees Demand Signs
1 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. — Matthew 16 | King James Version (KJV) The King James Version Bible is in the public domain Cross References: Job 34:11; Psalm 42:2; Psalm 49:8; Psalm 129:2; Proverbs 26:5; isaiah 22:22; Isaiah 57:3; Jeremiah 1:1; Matthew 1:16; Matthew 3:7; Matthew 4:10; Matthew 5:20; Matthew 6:30; Matthew 8:20; Matthew 10:38-39; Matthew 12:40; Matthew 14:17; Matthew 14:20; Matthew 21:25; Mark 8:15; Luke 9:18; Luke 12:54; Luke 12:56; John 1:42; John 12;25; Revelation 3:7
