God's ways are unfathomable, beyond comprehension, and can often appear inequitable.

Our Christian journey will be riddled with countless disappointments, unexpected misfortunes, and allowed accidents or irreversible happenings that God could've prevented.

Knowing this, the basis of commitment to God must not be fixed in our understanding why He deals as He does, but rather in the simple fact that He is God.

In the "Christian" world today, grace is often misapplied and seen as tool that causes one's sins to go without effect. However, this is not at all the purpose of grace. Grace gives power to deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts, and enables one to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world.

The Spirit of grace has taken it upon Himself to reveal this truth to everyone who comes into this world, and therefore all have the opportunity to accept this grace. And once you are saved, the Spirit of grace is with you, doing everything in His power to keep you!

Even in this dark and wicked world, we are able to live righteously through the help of the Spirit of grace. And praise God grace is ever available to us! No matter the situation, if we willing to seek grace, we will find it!

Temptation is inevitable, but it’s your choice to entertain it. For many Christians, the real struggle isn’t falling to it — it’s flirting with it. To live a conquering, consistent, and exemplary Christian life you must foresee evil afar off, entirely avoid all grey areas, and maintain a violent disposition towards sin.

Many are contented to simply survive spiritually, but God's Word exhorts us that we should be doing so much the more as we see the day approaching! It should not be so that we see our brother or sister going through, and we turn a blind eye to it; no, we should get up under their burden with them as if we were going through ourselves. This is how one becomes more spiritual, draws closer to God, and experiences more of God's blessings.

However, not many are actually willing to obey the command, "let us consider one another...so much the more." So where are you? Are you praying, fasting, reading and studying the Word, seeking after God, examining yourself, and burden bearing so much the more as time draws to a close? "He that hath an ear, let him hear."

A cursory glance at our country’s condition—reflected in the news, mainstream media, religion, politics, and the general state of human well-being, reveals that negativity is deeply woven into the fabric of society.

Furthermore as Christians, it is self evident that Satan incessantly works to ensure our mental energy is fixated on negative things and blind to positive things.

“Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?”

Being a Christian doesn’t delete the reality that life is full of negativity, hardship, pain, and misfortune; however, for the Christian ALL things work together for a positive purpose, and needless to say we spend a lot more days enjoying the wonders of this exceptional Christian life than we do immersed in trial.

For many, the pull of the world is so strong. The life of the party seems nigh irresistible; but what the devil does not show in his picture for their life is that every party comes to an end, and for many, it is already over! The end of the party, in some instances, is not death, but is when all the enjoyment of sin is gone. And what many do not realize is that it is not as easy as just staying in sin till the party ends and then coming to God. This is not at all the case because, even when or if you try to come to God, you must still reckon with everything that you did in sin, and many are just not willing to do so sufficiently.

For some, the party does end with along with their lives, and the realization they receive that the party is over is a realization that is almost more than the human mind can stand. Lord, help us all to realize that the party in sin ended a long time ago! There is nothing out there but a miserable life, and at the bitter end, eternal death. May we all take heed to this word sent from heaven.

There is no human experience equal to that of a ex-saint (former saint).

Any Christian, after having tasted the good word of God and experiencing so great a salvation - only to turn to and crucify their Saviour afresh, by returning to the vomit of sin is an atrocity beyond comprehension.

The process of becoming an ex saint is a vicious one; requiring intense effort, force, and resoluteness of mind.

May God grant us all a personal divulgence of this truth and may we cling to Christ with trembling and trust.

Every day we are determining our destiny! Every word, imagination, and action direct our course. Listener, the final destination of your life and ultimately your soul is left in your hands and to your discretion. And although we are charting our course each moment, some moments forever define our destiny. This is why we must, without intermission, acknowledge God in all our ways that He may direct our path. If we do this indeed, our destiny will be according to His perfect plan! Solemnly listen to and consider this word from God, and let this message forever change you.
