True Christianity is not having a better knowledge of our Pastors and ministers than we have of Jesus and His Word.
(Philippians 3:10)
Christianity is not living in the temple, the synagogue or church, or praying in church at the expense of the assignment God has given you which maybe outside the four walls of the church. We are not the salt of the church, we are the salt of the earth.

Jesus is our role model, the only one the Father authorizes us to truly follow.

The only reason we should attend a church is because we believe that church teaches the truths of Jesus and His Word.
The only reason we should follow a minister of the gospel, should be as a result of the minister truly pointing us to Jesus. 2 Timothy 4:3-4, Titus 1:9

True Christianity is when a person becomes the hands with which God works, the legs with which God moves, the eyes with which God sees and the ears with which God hears, for we are the temple of the Holy Ghost.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
