GUILT


GUILT

By Joy Titobiloluwa Adekanbi


Guilt is the greatest tool the enemy of our souls uses to enslave we the children of God in our minds.
.
.
.
There is constantly a decision to make. We make thousands of decisions every day.
The choice of what, where, how and when to do what.
.
.
The devil, being a deceiver is constantly reminding us of why we do not deserve what. You say you want to live above sin, he says what about the one you did yesterday.
.
.
He comes with another reason why he thinks what you did yesterday cannot be erased. But we know better. Jesus died once and for all and He says we are the righteousness of God in Christ.
.
.
But here comes the devil who knows he has been condemned and wants companions on his journey. The devil says are you sure He died, were you there? Jesus gave the answer on our behalf before He left (ascended). He says cheer up, have faith, I have overcome the world.
.
.
So when the enemy advances, we take up our shield of faith. When it feels like there are evidence to the contrary, we say we Believe Jesus died. That He paid the price.
.
.
Faith is the only way to overcome guilt because the devil will always bring up 1001 reasons why he feels we are not saved. It is not really about what the devil thinks. What will stand is what we think.
.
.
We should be positive in our thinking. If Jesus says we are saved, believe so. Why? Because He said so. End of discussion. Unless we are willing to believe God like a child would, the devil will play us like a fool.
.
.
We have the victory - our faith. The moment we give in to pressures from the devil, we submit our victory to him only to be picked up when we come back to our senses.
.
.
Choose to stand no matter what.  Feed your faith with the word of God daily and watch your doubt give way. SHALLOM!

RELATIONSHIP CORNER 2.0 11-04-2020 "What a beautiful saturday!"  "This is the day that the Lord has made", Jane exclaimed as she entered the bath tube. "I will rejoice and be glad in it", she finished the line, her face beaming with smiles. The expression on her face connotes peace, joy and contentment. On this faithful day, Jane would be saying yes, 'I do' in some couple of hours. This moment she has to herself in the bathtub seems golden to her, and a reflecting moment so to say. After now,  she dresses up and off to church, from church to her new home.  She is grateful to God especially and to everyone that has been a part of her life till this moment. Ooops! There she goes, teardrops rolling down her face, seems beautiful on her face though. She is a beautiful lady, even the blind knows, and her heart for God is big, making her an exceptional breed.  Jane wiped off the tears and finally said, "I am grateful Lord,

RELATIONSHIP CORNER 5.O 14-04-2020 "BEYOND THE VEIL"  The veil is a net with which the face of the bride is covered on the wedding day. The veil is only needed on the wedding day, it doesn't go beyond that day. The covering of the bride on the d day is a customary process a bride goes through. There may be more than one significance for the opening of veil on the wedding day. For me, it is the crossing over from courtship to marriage. When the groom opens up the veil to behold the bride, new realities are opened up unto them.  Beyond, the veil are the realities of marriage, the way of life and the operations in marriage. Let me quickly drive home this point, what is obtainable in marriage depends on the relationship of the individuals involved with God on a personal level. When the personal level is taken care of, then, the joint level will be glorious.  That is why the Bible says: do not be unequally yoked with an unbeliever, for what has d

ANGER

ANGER . . No one can upset us without our permission. Many times unknowingly we give room for others to manipulate us and then we get angry when they do. . . When we put our trust in humans instead of God and they let us down, we get angry.  . . When we get angry at times, it is not about what someone did. It is about who did it. If any other person had done it, it wouldn’t have meant much but because the person who did it did it we get angry. . . The anger directed at the person who let us down makes us bitter and affect our relationship with others.  . . Others get to pay for the sins of someone they have never met and they too get angry and a vicious cycle continues. . . Why not place our trust in God who cannot fail and who would never go back on his promises. . .  When we place men in the position of God and see them as our all in all, they occupy a position in our hearts and influences us in ways that we cannot fathom. . . Humans will always be humans and God will always be God.
