All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

The last hour is clearly amongst us. As the word of God  says in 1 John 2:18-  My dear children [2:1], ·these are the last days [L it is the last hour; C suggesting urgency, though not claiming the end was near]. [L Just as] You have heard that the ·enemy of Christ [L antichrist] is coming, and now many ·enemies of Christ [L antichrists; C false teachers; 2:222 John 7] are already here. This is how we know that ·these are the last days [L it is the last hour].We are living in a deceiving hour where people are going to try to pull us  away from the truth of the Gospel.It is very important that you stayed rooted and grounded in the truth of God. AS the word of God says in Colossians 2:7- rooted and built up in him and firm in your faith just as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. It is very easy  to  be pull away when  people are no longer glorifying  God, but other things. Like the word of God says in Romans 1:22- For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image resembling mortal human beings or birds or four-footed animals or reptiles.Look at what is happening to the world.People are being destroyed because of no knowledge.As the word of God says in Hosea 4:6-You have destroyed my people

by failing to acknowledge me!
Because you refuse to acknowledge me,
I will reject you as my priests.
Because you reject the law of your God,
I will reject your descendants. Look at how much celebrities are getting worship and not just them but other things. Things that just temperoal. They are literal taking the worship of God away. We know God is a jealousy God . AS the word of God says in Deuteronomy 4:24-  For the Lord your God is a consuming fire; he is a jealous God. God will not give his honor or praise to anything made. AS the word of God says in Isaiah 42:8- I am the Lord! That is my name!
I will not share my glory with anyone else,
or the praise due me with idols. I was one of those people who give so much admiration to celebrities.Shame on me for that.But the goodnews is that Jesus gives sight to the blind. AS the word of God says in Luke 4:18-and the regaining of sight to the blind. It is very easy to be sweep away by the error of the wicked. I'm telling you that thoughts of unbelief we enter you mind. Because it happen to me.  While  the people of the world seems to have more of a upper hand than the righteous. Case in point read Psalm 73 and Habakkuk)  That also leads us to know that we should live even the more in these evil days by faith. AS the word of God says in Habakkuk 2:4- But ·those who are right with God [the righteous] will live ·by faith [or because of their faithfulness; Rom. 1:17Gal. 3:11Heb. 10:38]. God is warning us because there will be people who will come into the churches or wherever and pull us  away with just lies. AS the word of God says in Acts 20: 29-  I know that after ·I leave [my departure; I am gone], ·some people will come like wild wolves [L wild/savage wolves will come in among you] and ·try to destroy [will not spare] the flock. 30 ·Also, [or Even] some from your own group will rise up and ·twist the truth [L speak perversions/distortions] and will ·lead away [lure; entice]·followers [disciples] after them. 31 So ·be careful [keep watch]! Always remember that for three years, day and night, I never stopped warning [admonishing; instructing] each of you, ·and I often cried over you [L with tears]. And also 1 John 2:26-  I ·am writing [or have written] ·this letter [L these things] about those people who are ·trying to lead you the wrong way [deceiving you; leading you astray].Know I'm understanding why Paul said fight the good fight of faith. AS the word of God says in 1 Timothy 6:12- ·Fight the good fight [or Run the good race] of faith, grabbing hold of ·the life that continues forever [eternal life]. You were called to have that life when you confessed the good confession before many witnesses.Hold on saints, because Jesus promised that if we endure we would be saved. AS the word of God says in Matthew 10:22-You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. May the Grace of Jesus  be with us all. AMen

If you want to be ready for Jesus return say this prayer from the heart. Lord Jesus I am a rebellious sinner. You have drawn me here by your Spirit. You have put all my sin on you and you condemn it in your flesh. I believe that Jesus. I receieve your death, your burial and your resecurrection in my heart and life. I thankyou that you will send your Holy Spirit to me.I thankful for this new life with you . In Jesus Name .AMen

Go to a God fearing church that preaches the real gospel. Read the word of God ,buy you a new bible that the Lord leads you to buy,pray and fellowship with the body of Christ.God bless you all in Jesus Name.AMen

Awesome point sis Amand and sis Seek Ye First. Especially about the fasting that is very interesting as well. Yeah those idols do have an interested way of creeping into our hearts.Especially because I 'm working on destroying the ones that make me stumble. But by God's  grace  he will deliver me from that stumbling block and trangression. God bless you both.

We can be amazed at some idols in our lives that we don’t even think of.

I've had concern of my games on my phone being an idol so I have fasted my games. Most people think fasting is food. But fasting has to do with denying something we love.

One younger man at my church who goes into the mission field and once spent 3 months on a mission in Uganda once fasted warm clothing, wearing only shorts and shirt sleeves shirts and no coat...in the dead of winter January. LOL

His purpose was to bring realization to himself of those who go without and do not have warm clothing. Maybe why he also works our clothing drives.

To some of us our idol may be food, our car, home, a particular item we can't part with.
