THE WRONG MOTIVATION


During a Tornado season,the pecan tree is very IMPRESSIVE.At that particular time of the year,its leaves has fallen over,and it looks naked;But,because of its roots,it stands still.The stately oak,however,has absolute appearance of strength,but no roots.


Do not give in the need to built a ministry for looks.Do what you have been called for by Your Lord God,Do it with Integrity.


One year ,every church in which I conducted a meeting started a magazine and a Bible school at the same time.It tried in a very nice to explain to the pastors.I get involved,that i was called to do what I was doing.Every church started and failed at what i was doing.However,I would have failed if i had tried to  imitate them.The wrong motivation is a foundation of un-righteousness.The Lord will not not sustain what He had not built.If you built it in your own strength,that is how you will sustain it.Head the words of the scriptures how is saying."A song of degrees for Solomon;Except the Lord built the house,the labour in vain,that built it;Except the Lord keeps the city,the watchman waketh but in vain."

Nothing but Chris and Christ alone

Peter, for himself and his brethren, said that they were assured of our Lord's being the promised Messiah, the Son of the living God. This showed that they believed Jesus to be more than man. Our Lord declared Peter to be blessed, as the teaching of God made him differ from his unbelieving countrymen. Christ added that he had named him Peter, in allusion to his stability or firmness in professing the truth. The word translated rock, is not the same word as Peter, but is of a similar meaning. Nothing can be more wrong than to suppose that Christ meant the person of Peter was the rock. Without doubt Christ himself is the Rock, the tried foundation of the church; and woe to him that attempts to lay any other! Peter's confession is this rock as to doctrine. If Jesus be not the Christ, those that own him are not of the church, but deceivers and deceived. Our Lord next declared the authority with which Peter would be invested. He spoke in the name of his brethren, and this related to

power of Holly spirit

The power of the Holy Spirit is the power of God. The Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, has appeared throughout Scripture as a Being through and by whom great works of power are made manifest. His power was first seen in the act of creation, for it was by His power the world came into being (Genesis 1:1–2; Job 26:13). The Holy Spirit also empowered men in the Old Testament to bring about God’s will: “So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came upon David in power” (1 Samuel 16:13; see also Exodus 31:2–5; Numbers 27:18). Although the Spirit did not permanently indwell God’s people in the Old Testament, He worked through them and gave them power to achieve things they would not have been able to accomplish on their own. All of Samson’s feats of strength are directly attributed to the Spirit coming upon him (Judges 14:6, 19; 15:14). Jesus promised the Spirit as a permanent guide, teacher, seal of

The Holly martyr

Was the Blessed and Immaculate Mother of God a martyr? Unlike Saint Peter, she was not crucified upside down. Unlike Saint Paul, she was not decapitated. Unlike Saint Lawrence, she was not burned alive. Rather, Sacred Tradition holds that she fell asleep peacefully surrounded by the Apostles of Christ her Son. So then, it seems that Mary is not a martyr. Yet, Saint Bernard and many eminent saints and doctors of the Church have described her as the greatest martyr of the Catholic Church – “the more than martyr” to use the words of Saint Bernard. The prophet Simeon prophecied of the Blessed Mother’s martyrdom when he said to her: “And your own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts thoughts may be revealed” (Lk 2:35). What did Simeon mean when he told Mary that a sword would pierce her soul. The Church has unanimously taught that this occurred when she looked upon her Son’s dead body on the cross, pierced withe lance of the Roman. Her motherly soul was so sorrowful, s
