How Healthy Are Your Desires???

 


"Let me ask you a question?"


Silence was the instrumental sound playing in the room

 among the soldiers when the commander spoke.


"How healthy are your desires?"


The soldiers responded :


"Healthy as our focus on your question commander."


"Wrong."


The commander yelled out.


Then proceeds to mention:


"Our desires are as healthy as staying in the present moment."


All the soldiers began nodding their heads in a synchronized fashion.


Watching this film. I began to understand the assignment:




Scriptures remind us that daydreaming is pointless just like having a business with no marketing noted in Ecclesiastes 5:7.


Our desires often come from influenced by cares of the world displayed

 in Matthew 16:26.


Not to forget our very own human nature discussed 

in Galatians 5:17.


Moral lesson time :


There was a gentile convert of The Way name 

Demas 

(whose name means worldly or of the world)

He was intrigued by this new righteous lifestyle- 

Philemon 1:24 & Colossians 4:14.

Sadly his desires was still lingering in his old worldly ways and went back into the world betraying Saul - 2 Timothy 4:10.


Why would Demas give up this ultimate blessing of being in the first resurrection to be reunited with many of the faithful from the

ancient of days???


The truth is we don't why but we can know what caused it...

What causes many like Demas to go back is a lack of conviction as mentioned in Hebrews 11:1 & Romans 8:18.


Let us remember that individuals written in Scriptures were exposed to us for learning what to do and not do so we don't repeat history or the past

- Romans 15:4 & 1 John 2:18-19.


So are desires can be healthy by staying present with

Omnipresent Creator!!!

This Is Mandatory!!!

  "Have you seen this?" A lady sitting across from me showed her friend a picture. Her friend responds : "Oh yeah, I saw that earlier on my social feed. Isn't it adorable?" Now her friend responds: "Who would have thought someone would rescue a baby polar bear while sailing?" Sadly this has been another AI visual misleading two innocent beings. Hmmmmmm... The Scriptures remind us that it's mandatory to prove all things according  to 1 Thessalonians 5:21 . Reason for this is that we live in Satan's world noted in  2 Corinthians 4:3-4 & John 12:30-31 . So we must be mindful of the crafty schemes of the Adversary displayed  in 2 Corinthians 2:11 . So we don't end up walking by the flesh instead of the Spirit discussed in  Galatians 5:16 & 1 Peter 2:11 . So as AI videos and images continue to flourish in this misleading world... Let us not be conformed to it be reformed by the renewing of our mind-  Romans 12:2 & 2 Corinthians 5:7...

Biblical Forensics Is Hiring!!!

Image
  "What book are you reading?"  This older yet elegant woman says to me. My response while sitting on a bench by a quiet park: "The Scriptures." The woman responds : "That is good to see you are into Biblical Forensics?" I told her : "I like the sound of that." "Biblical Forensics." Hmmmmmmmm... Scriptures remind us that we are called to prove all things  according to 1 Thessalonians 5:21 . We are here to test and detect the wicked of this world noted  in 1 John 4:1 . Our inspections are not to be taken lightly with the evidence we have been given displayed in Luke 12:48 . So with the overwhelming evidence as being apart of YEHOVAH's Forensic's team - Revelations 5:10 . Let us always be careful not to tamper with unchanging & crucial evidence put before us -   Deuteronomy 4:2 & 2 Timothy 2:15 !!!

Will You Let YEHOSHUA Have The Last Dance???

Image
  "Ehhh.... Are you looking for your dancing shoes?" My elder utters as he passes by our fellowship center. My response: "Dancing shoes?" He responds : "Don't be late for the last dance with the Bridegroom?" Then, he proceeds to walk away humming one of his favorite hymns. I'm now thinking out loud : "The Bridegroom." Then another quick thought echoes out : "OOOHHHH ...THE MESSIAH.........." Scriptures remind us that there is a soon coming wedding to take place mentioned  in Revelation 19:6-10 . This wedding will be more entertaining than the dancing of King David noted  in 2 Samuel 6:14 . With all the rejoicing sounds of the harps and tambourines  demonstrated in Psalms 149:3 . This Bride has been awaiting for this moment for a long time for the presence of the Bridegroom - Romans 8:18 . Even though the Bridegroom has delayed His arrival giving the Bride time to prepare... When He Does Arrive... Will you be in attendance rea...
