HONESTY

OF HONESTY

Honesty in general meaning is the quality of being honest. Honest then means “always telling the truth and never stealing or cheating, not hiding the truth.” The Bible in simple and precise interpretation refer to it as “being faithful” Honesty and faithfulness can be used interchangeably. Human being as an embodiment of flesh found it difficult to be honest in all facets of life. All over the world, only few can boast a lifestyle of honesty. Every facets of human endeavor are filled with avenues and situations that influence compromise. Jesus Christ describes honest people as those that which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word keep it and bring forth fruit with patience. Luke 8:15.

This implies that an honest person requires a lot of patience to be able to bring forth a good fruit. No wonder many people cannot endure the time, but rather, they preferred fast returns such as ‘fast fast’ or ‘sharp sharp’. There have been cases of distrust, disappointments, pains, agonies, distress, depression and in fact untimely death resulting from relationships, friendships, families, colleagues, groups, congregation, neighborhood and associates due to an individual or group that may want to gain an undue benefit or advantage. This may arise from envy, reveling and strife.

As children of God, Honesty is an attribute that should be part of us. Even if we are surrounded by dishonest people. The Bible says we should provide things honest in the sight of all men. Romans 13:17

Some causes of dishonesty are:

-          Greed

-          Self Actualization

-          Envy

-          Covetousness

-          Selfishness

-          Pride

-          Discontentment .etc.

If any of these is found in your life, You need to run to God as fast as possible.

Some of the benefits of honesty are:

i.                    Peace of mind, because God of peace will give. Phil.4:7-9

ii.                  Abundant blessing in return 1Thes.4:12

iii.                Make heaven at last.

Rewards of dishonesty

i.                    Regrets and Pains

ii.                  Sorrow

iii.                Death

iv.                 Hell fire

Dear God’s Treasurers, even though we live in the era of eternal gain with whom that called us unto light than the ephemeral joy that ends here.

Be Blessed.

      BROKENNESS

Brokenness in literary meaning means state of being damaged or shattered. In this context brokenness is defined as a means to Godliness, Righteousness and Holiness. We are like a pot in the hand of the potter. Isaiah 64:8 “But now O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand”.

There are lots of complexities we human being have formed over time due to our experiences. God requires that not until we are broken, we may not enjoy a complete cordial relationship with HIM. Even though HE is so gracious and merciful, there is a level God expects us as children to be reaching daily which is Spiritual growth. No unbroken can live in holiness and hence cannot meet with God. He that wants to secure a cordial relationship with God must break away from Self and Flesh. Romans 8:8 so then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

He that is born of flesh is of flesh and he that is born of spirit is spirit. Commonly every human are influenced by fleshly desires. i.e Self actualization, self interests of varying degrees. These have to be broken away from someone’s life and a new personality emerged that a state of brokenness is achieved.

Benefits of this state of brokenness

1. All self inspired goals are suppressed for God’s divine purpose to emerge.
2. The world has no authority over such individual again but has authority over the world.
3. There is full control over God’s Treasures hidden to those in flesh.

Lots of benefits more in next edition.

God bless all God’s Treasurers

Life in Jesus

If God has not demonstrated the real love to have allowed HIS son to come and give us the HOPE of real LIFE aside from this one we generally have. Describe it...How would it be?

WHAT SHALL I DO?

“What shall I do?”  “How shall I decide?” “What is the right way?” “Am I making the right move?” All of us find ourselves asking such questions, asking them of ourselves, asking them of other persons. Every day there are decisions to be made; there are issues to be met; there is the need to act wisely. Most of the time we are able to handle the decisions, the questions that present themselves. But there are times when we find it difficult to make a decision, when it seems that any course we might take would be the wrong one, when the issue is so clouded that we cannot seem to reach any clear thought about it, when we cannot see our way. What shall we the do? Shall we try to force the issue? Shall we strike out blindly, hoping to find our way? Usually, this approach may prove a hard one. We may find ourselves taking detours, running into obstacles and delays. In the creation of the world. “The world was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. And God said, ‘Let there be light’, and there was light” (Gen.1:2-3)

The story of creation is our story. Every time we are in doubt or despair, our world is waste and void and darkness is upon the face of the deep; that is, the Truth, the understanding of the deep things of God seems covered over in us. But light comes through speaking the word. Our mind is enlightened, our eyes are opened, our understanding is awakened as we declare in faith from the Spirit of God in us. “Let there be light.” When we are in darkness, when we do not know what to do or which way to turn, let us stand still and declare light: “Let there be light.” The light is there; it shines forth brightly as we affirm it and believe in it. “The wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and fruits” (James 3:17) Sometimes we confuse wisdom with knowledge. Wisdom is knowing how to apply the knowledge we have. Wisdom is knowing how to judge soundly and how to act on this judgment.

Have you ever known a person who knew about Truth but never seemed to know how to handle the everyday affairs of life? There are persons who read all the books, who know all the Truth principles, who memorize and repeat affirmations and denials, who have the knowledge of Truth but lack know-how, the wisdom to apply it, to use it. True wisdom does not consist only of knowing, but of doing as well. We may have a mind filled with facts and figures but unless we know how to use them, to relate this knowledge constructively and effectively to life and living, such knowledge is useless. Knowledge is acquired through reading, through study, through listening to others. Wisdom is an inner revelation: it is from God, it is an innate spiritual gift. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind “ (James 1:5-6).

If we want knowledge we go to books or teachers for it; if we want wisdom we want wisdom we go to God for it, “who gives to all men generously and without reproaching.” Suppose you have some situation to meet that seems difficult, where a solution seems impossible under present conditions. Will you give up on it or will you go to God for wisdom, asking in faith, never doubting? The wisdom you seek is there for you, the light is ready to be revealed, there is a way. This is what you are to remember; this is what something in you knows and has always known that there is a right answer with God. Wisdom is not static. It engenders action. The darkness was upon the face of the deep, and then there was light. Something happened, a change took place. This is what we are to expect when we pray for light, when we pray for wisdom. The darkness will disappear, and a new world will appear to us. The clear understanding of the reason why Jesus had to suffer for what He did not do is the ultimate every one of us can offer to appreciate His suffering to bridge the gap between us and God. Then our darkened circumstances will experience light. Jesus brought light for us to move out of the darkness sin overshadows us with. Then to every saved soul, we are operating under the marvelous light of God.

We should not forget that the wisdom of God is revealed in us and acts through us. We are to act on the wisdom that Sprit reveals; we are to follow it. May all God's Treasurers celebrate more of this day in multiple joy and gladness in Jesus Name.

DIVINE ORDER

                                                              DIVINE ORDER

For as many that are being guided by the spirit of the living God, the word of God says they are the sons and daughters of God. Applying the idea of divine order in our affairs is the best application to living the best life in perfect peace. A fellow said something to my hearing recently that a ‘befitting life is better than befitting burial.’ I tried to analyze a befitting life in a peace within the master plan of the maker (GOD). It appears to me that as long as many that refuse to retain God in their Knowledge, God will continually give them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. Here it then implies that if our life is within the scope of God’s divine order we stand a more fulfilling and befitting life than just been here in the world.

A young couple was said were in a point of their marriage ties being severed, they prayed for divine other, with the establishment of that order came the wisdom and understanding that were needed to transform the seeming hopelessness of the situation into an opportunity for a more harmonious, loving, giving union.

When a woman who was expecting her first baby found herself affected with an unusual condition that lessened chances for the delivery of a perfect child, she was able by realizing and affirming divine order to erase her fears and to wait through the final week of pregnancy with her mind at rest. And her child was as perfect and whole an infant as any mother’s heart could desire.

 In still another case an eviction notice was served on a family some time before the home they were having built was ready for occupancy. They prayed for divine order and were able to work out a new understanding with the landlord. He made a different arrangement and postponed his moving into the apartment they occupied while the builder of the new home hurried things along. Ultimately everything worked out so that no one was too much inconvenienced by a situation by a situation that for a time had threatened to lead to a lawsuit.

Divine order is an attribute of God’s treasurers that establishes and guarantees a beautiful and purposeful life. Staying out of trouble is beyond common discretion. Day to Day activities comes and goes. It is within divine other that we are guided out of trouble, calamities and misfortunes. By speaking the words “divine order” and realizing that divine order is established, you gain freedom from fear and doubt, you set your house in order, you open your life to the light, wholeness, peace, and plenty that are your rightful heritage, and you bless everyone in need of blessing. So declare divine order. Affirm divine order. Look for, expect divine order. Divine order will appear.
