HOLINESS


Precepts of men are not strong enough. You must learn God and learn to preach the gospel from him (he is our teacher and Shepard). I used to go to church and to tell you the truth I was not myself. A lot of Christians and are still trapped in that religious eggshell, where they go to church and they try to act holy because they do not understand what holiness means. 



I didn't get that too.
What is the first thing that pops in your mind when I ask you what holiness is. Most of us think that holiness is been morally upright, been sinless and blameless. Then let me ask you something….what is Righteousness?

You see God is distinct and sacred, there is no one like our God.. He is not sinful, he is above everything.  God’s nature is the expression of his holiness. It is beyond our compression ……it’s his perfection. Is there any human being like our God? Is there anyone so perfect like our God?

Holiness is been set apart, been distinct and abiding in God. It’s important for us to understand that we are human and acknowledge that we need God. We need to understand that we are sinners and come before his throne of grace to obtain mercy on a daily basis. We need to stop acting like we got it with God….acting like we are blameless and spotless. We need to stop caring less about people’s opinions and care more about WHAT GOD SAYS. We can understand what God requires from us by studying his word and communing with him on a daily basis. I have mustered the power of repentance.  Before I sleep I always ask God to forgive me of all my sins and teach me to be more like him.

My point is strive by the grace of God to be set apart and not try to blend in. …Be unique for the kingdom of God.

THE SORBET FACE ELECTRIC BRUSH

Image
The  sorbet rechargeable cleanser  removes dirt from pores much more effectively and gently than that of normal cleansing. The fine exfoliating bristles ensure deeper cleansing and gently remove dead skin cells, revealing brighter, more youthful looking skin. This ensures that subsequent face creams or serums are also absorbed better into the skin. The cleanser is fully water-resistant which makes it safe to use and store in the bathroom.  It comes with 3 different heads (a daily cleansing brush, the exfoliating brush (with fine tapered bristles) and a silicone brush head for extra delicate skin).  I have found that I tend to use the daily cleansing brush every evening after doing a pre-cleanse to remove the bulk of my makeup and then I use the silicone brush head in the morning.  I use the exfoliating once a week. I love that the cleanser comes with a USB charger which makes it easy enough to charge – no need to worry about batteries.  A s...

YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Problems sharpens us. Problems brings us closer to God. The more a pencil is sharpened, the more it works wonders. Don’t worry when life turns differently, stand more, fast more, pray more, read the bible more and love others more. Though pain may come in the evening, joy comes in the morning. Remain positioned in the Lord, even if seems like he failed to save you. Let him be his your Lord and personal savior. Don’t compare yourself with your neighbor. Let your care be your care and theirs be. No matter what you are going through just know that God will never leave you nor forsake you. Your life is in the hands of the potter. His thoughts, plans and ideas are not like ours. U can’t be better than God. Know your fate. Don’t live your life empty spirited. Open your heart and let Jesus come into your life. I encourage you to turn to God. May your worship not be dictated by your situation.  He is God in and out of every situation.You are not alone. You can overcome that depressio...

ARE CROP TOPS MODEST?

Image
First and foremost, I have worn a crop top before. I own one. I wanted it so badly and wallah, I bought it and wore it (See below). Although I wore it on one Saturday afternoon, I kinda felt bad. For those of you who walk with God, you will understand me right away. 1 Timothy 2: 9 which reads;" I also want women to dress modestly with decency and properly, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes convicted me. Proverbs 7: 10  Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.   I got convicted people.    I think God convicts people differently and at different times. We are convicted by the holy spirit about what is right and what is wrong. We must learn to listen to the voice of truth and obey it. Obedience is better than sacrifice.  I no longer feel comfortable wearing a crop top especially without a thin coat on top. I fail to see the point in  putting ...
