If you are broke, donβt pursue money. Pursue God your prosperity. If you are faced with lack, donβt pursue material goods. Pursue God your provider. If you are sick, donβt pursue the 'cure'. Pursue God your healer.
The only reason I don't want to commit adultery is because I love my wife and I love my lord.
Only those who are built up can build others up, amen?
Prosperity is right. Amen. We prosper to prosper others. We prosper to prosper God's kingdom, so come believing.
It is the truth of grace and not of the law that brings you true freedom. The truth of the law only binds you. In fact, religious bondage is one of the most crippling bondages with which a person can be encumbered. Religious bondage keeps one in constant fear, guilt, and anxiety.
I began to realize that when people experience the love of God, it casts out their fear and frees them from guilt.
The law condemns the best of us; but grace saves the worst of us.
God doesn't want us to have rigid rituals with Him. In the new covenant, He is more interested in having a relationship with us.
Isn't it interesting that God appears holy when he's gracious?
Only the holy spirit, the spirit of the lord, can transform us.
Listen with grace, with no judgment, without imposing the law.
There are days when my heart is troubled, and just being in the Lord's presence and thinking about His love for me fills my heart with inexplicable peace and joy.
As they come forth, Lord, to sow, release upon them, Father, the power to get, to create, to receive wealth in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
If we're honest, we all have some measure of wrong believing in our lives. If you don't believe this, all you need to do is ask yourself, 'Have I often felt anxious, worried, or fearful that the worst would happen to me and my loved ones?'
When we are fearful and worried all the time, we are living as if we don't believe that we have a strong and able Shepherd who is tenderhearted toward us, who only leads us to good places, who protects us and lovingly watches over us.
You cannot mock God because whatever good thing you do, you're gonna reap for it.
I'm not saying everything out there is bad and toxic, but there are some things that are not scriptural. For example, some people don't understand that the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
The more I thought to myself, 'Are my thoughts right, am I being obedient enough?' the worse it was... one of the most painful things you can experience in life is not so much physical pain, but being self-occupied. Because to the extent you are self-occupied, that's the extent you will be in pain.
Wrong believing puts people in a prison. Even though there are no physical shackles, wrong believing causes its inmates to behave as though they were incarcerated in a maximum-security penitentiary.
What you believe is very powerful. If you have toxic emotions of fear, guilt and depression, it is because you have wrong thinking, and you have wrong thinking because of wrong believing.
