WALK BY THE SPIRIT

3/9/11 Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised. He is the Lord of all and therefore He knows everyone's heart. He calls all into His kingdom but only a few will hear. The god of this world has blinded many to the way. They follow other ways because they are enticed by the god of this world. The god of this world always entices through the external lights and pleasures. Man falls for this so easily through his eye gate. This gate is the gate that entices all to fall. The media is the main channel through which the world influences us. Watch the eye gate and do not fall for the superficial ways of man. Pride entices by feeding the ego which looks for power and popularity. Pride always gets in the way of dependence on God. Man was created in the image of God and therefore has the desire for power. But this power has been turned inwards and serves self rather then others. God's power is available for service and not to serve your self interests. Whenever you are involved in serving others then you know you are working for God. Many serve but again they do it with self interest. It may all look good but where there is pride the ego is fed and not the other. Agape love serves without any self interest and serves the other without conditions. This is the kind of love that will go the distance and bless the people. Be filled in the Spirit and walk by the Spirit and you will fulfill all God's commands in the flesh.
