GOD AND MAN

Our education is vital for helping us to live a comfortable life, now if we take that knowledge and follow the moral guidance of the Word, we will live a life of purpose and prosperity. God's Word will change our lives if we put the Word and our faith into practice.  God's Word, is a living organism that speaks to our souls and changes our hearts and minds to things of the Spirit.  The more we study, the clearer we hear and feel Him; God's Word is a diagrammatic representation of souls, spirits, hearts, and minds; which keeps us in line with the Holy Spirit.  When we receive His Spirit, our character will become more Christ-like; the material things of man will no longer be important to us, only the things of the Spirit.  But, we must be in the Word daily, because the Word is our weapon along with pray, worship, praise, and faith; that we have against the flesh, our enemy, and the darkness of the world. Seek the things of the Spirit and not the things of the world; then our lives will have a purpose, peace, and prosperity. Everything man has to offer is material; that keeps, us in debt, stressed, addicted, or worst.  The things of the Spirit are free and gives us eternal life, but things of the world bring us death.

 Galatians 1:10 - For do I now persuade men or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.  Acts 5:29 - Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

Father, so many times we have desired what the world has to offer, instead of  Your will, and so many times we failed.  Lord, we spend Your money unwisely then complain about being in financial hardship, all to please or show off to people who do not care.  Lord, we do not know what we want most of the time, and people make promises to us they cannot keep.  Father, help us pay every debt we owe and teach us how to live for You instead of man. Lord, forgive us for not obeying Your Word then complain about situations we caused, through our worldly desires.  Lord, keep a hedge of protection around us, our children, family, and friends; and remove all generational curses. Father, surround us with Your Spiritual Soldiers; to help us with our day-to-day struggles, and spiritual battles.  Lord, dress us in full body armor; so we can stand against evil and our enemies.  Father, give us Your strength, love, and fill us with the Holy Spirit; to help us be submissive to Your Word and develop Christ-like character.  Amen
