Philippians 1:9,10 - This is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,o that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ

The Greatest Gift. 1: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2: And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3: And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. 4: Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5: Does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 6: Does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 7: Does all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8: Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9: For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10: But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. 11: When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12: For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. 13: And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Please Do Believe that God is a REWARDER of those that diligently seek Him.. It means He hires, gives wages & is a remunerator. Amwn!

Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore.

Old nature versus new Sunday 13th June 2021 'The Spirit and your desires are enemies.' Galatians 5:17 CEV The Bible says: 'If you are guided by the Spirit, you won't obey your selfish desires. The Spirit and your desires are enemies...always fighting each other and keeping you from doing what you feel you should' (Galatians 5:16-17 CEV). Sound familiar? Here are four keys to winning the daily battle between your old and new natures. (1) Be honest. Acknowledge that your flesh will always crave satisfaction in the wrong things - and it never takes a day off. (2) Be humble. Acknowledge that you're powerless to win the battle without God's help. By committing yourself to God, you draw on his strength in those first crucial moments of each test. And your ability to do that will grow as you practise this spiritual discipline. The closer you draw to God, the stronger you become when faced with temptation and trouble. (3) Be disciplined. This is a personal matter; no one else can do it for you. Paul writes, 'Do not let sin control your life here on earth' (Romans 6:12 NCV). If someone else has to restrain you, it doesn't work! (4) Be alert. As a soldier David should have known better, but Satan caught him off guard with his defences down. As a result he ended up committing adultery with Bathsheba, then having her husband put to death to cover it up. Maybe you think these keys don't apply to you. Even Paul, the greatest of the apostles, wrote, 'I keep my body under control and make it my slave, so I won't lose out after telling the good news to others' (1 Corinthians 9:27 CEV). HAPPY SUNDAY. SHALOM!

Your best days are still ahead of you. Be encouraged!

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD, for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.

I thank and praise God for the lives of our children. I pray they will be filled with Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding to excel in their generation.

You have what it takes and you can do all things through Christ! Phil 4:13

Do not let the mindset of others discourage you from being the best that you can be.
