Wisdom and Relationships

Your relationships should have an eternal perspective. Don't just go through the motions and the pleasure, the last thing you want is having life's pleasure and eternal pressure!

When it comes to your relationship God expects us to walk in love and wisdom.. Just because you are so much in love doesn't mean you should be stupid. A relationship based on feelings that you have never felt before, the good treatment, the approval given by friends and family will soon fall if it's foundation is not the word of God and wisdom.

Love is more than the good feeling that you have never felt before, it’s not about the sex and touch, it is not the expensive gifts, it is not about the amazing proposal,  it is more than holding of hands and having a good time together. Love is more than that. Love should bring honor and glory to God, it never fails.

See what the wisest man Solomon said: 

Proverbs 24:3-4

Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

3 Good homes are built on wisdom and understanding. 

4 Knowledge fills the rooms with rare and beautiful treasures

Proverbs 24:3-4

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

3 By wisdom a house is built
And by understanding it is established;
4 And by knowledge the rooms are filled
With all precious and pleasant riches.

It is said whatever you feed grows; feed your love with wisdom and Gods word, work your love and relationship with God’s word, stay together let love blossom, Don't let something or anyone destroy your love.

Build your home and relationship on His word and Wisdom. Bring glory to His name by loving well. 

Matthew 10:16

Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

16 “Listen! I am sending you, and you will be like sheep among wolves. So be smart like snakes. But also be like doves and don’t hurt anyone.

Former Things

So many are still holding on to how terrible they were yesterday.

So many are still holding on to how good and obedient they were yesterday. 

So many people are using their past good deeds to validate the wrong things that they are doing now. 

So many people are living in this state; “I used to be a good person, I have done so many mistakes” 

So many men are living in this state;” I used to be a good husband, I used to treat her well” 

Well it is time you come out of that small box of how things used to be and agree with our God.  Dwelling on the past is destroying so many people. Please don’t let this happen to you. Guilt and condemnation makes us prisoners of the past.

Live the moment of now just like our God. We serve a right now God…. He is called the great I am…. Not the great I was, or the great I am going to be… but the great I am….. He is a right now God...

God says in Isaiah 43:18-19 “Forget the former things;   do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

The Lord was so clear on this one…. Just forget the former things… bad or good.. Whatever thing that is in your past let it go.

Forget how holy and powerful you were yesterday

Forget how bad and miserable you were yesterday

Isaiah 42:8-9 “I am the Lord, that is My name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to [a]graven images. “Behold, the former things have come to pass,
Now I declare new things; Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”

 What matters to God is what you choose to do now. Your yesterday’s obedience don’t count, your past mistakes don’t count at all but this moment of #NOW 

Leave the past behind you that is where it belongs! When Jesus forgives us He does not remember our sins.....
We can’t do anything about what could have been, but what will be is definitely in our hands... Forget the former things and live the moment of now. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

Simplicty

There is so much freedom and power in simplicity... yep that's right! 

If you are unhappy, always trying to figure out yourself, unsatisfied and empty; it means you have so many complications in your life and you need to simplify. Many people have great complications: in marriage, relationships, finances etc. Most complications draw us near to Jesus who helps us to simplify our lives. It is a very complex world but Jesus is ready to help you simplify your life

Songs of Solomon 2:15 Says Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom. Note the word little... Like it is said the little things matter the most and I tell you on this day taking care of the simple things will help you in simplifying your life. The small things that we pay less attention to are the ones which complicate life and destroy our blooming vineyards. The solution to the issues found in marriage, relationships,and finances is simplicity. 

Jesus=Simplicity=Joy=A Happy Life

If you still not born again that is complex... You will burn in hell! Say Yes to Jesus, He simplifies life's complications.

Fault finding in others is complex (actually this is not wise at all), simplify your life and be free.

Pride, being full of yourself is a complex way of living life, simplify and be free.

Seeking attention, thinking it is all about you is complicated, simplify your life and be free.

Trying to be liked by others is complex simplify your life and be free.

Simplicity means you are relying on the finished work of Jesus and cashing in on God’s grace. Simplicity starts at the cross, when we bow down and give it all to Jesus.

Anyone that has Jesus has it all. Missing on Jesus means you are missing out life's biggest purpose and the main reason to live. 

God bless each and every one of us as we learn how to simplify our lives. 

A man reaps what he sows

Happy New Year!! God is Amazing.. I am glad to be here. I am more than blessed to be sharing with you guys about sowing and harvest during the beginning of 2013..No doubt sowing seeds and harvesting is a pretty known word almost to everyone.

Galatians 6:7-8 

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

God has given each and every one of us a good land to plant seeds. God will not choose for you the seeds which you want to plant. God will only water what you have planted. God will do His part which is watering. A thing to remember is the truth still remains; you only reap what you have planted.

Check this out................

Planting: Your Part

Watering: God’s Part

Harvest: Yours!

It is time for many Christians to come out of the shallow level of expecting God to straighten their mess! Why would I expect to harvest beans when I know pretty well I planted peas?!

Your words are seeds that you will soon harvest.

Your attitude is a seed that you will soon harvest

Your way of thinking and seeing things is a seed that you will soon harvest.

Your patience, your love, spending time with others, giving others compliments, forgiving, helping out, pride, hatred, jealousy; ANYTHING that you do or think is a seed that you are planting and harvest time will come.

 Do not be limited by what you have been or what you have done in the past. You are empowered by what you choose to do and who you choose to be from today. Remember the best seeds you can ever plant are the ones centered on His perfect will. Every single day is a given opportunity by our God to plant some seeds. God always gives is the opportunity to forgive, to love, to be patient with others, to be hardworking and to do everything. Jesus give us the strength and wisdom  to plant the right seeds, Amen!

Happy New Year

Much Love, Masinga....
