God puts people in our lives on purpose so we can help them succeed and become all He created them to be. Most people will not reach their full potential without somebody else believing in them. That means you and I have an assignment.
Everywhere we go, we should be encouraging people, building them up, challenging them to reach for new heights. When people are around us, we should leave them better off than they were before. Rather than feeling discouraged or defeated, people should feel challenged and inspired after spending any time with you and me.
Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. 1 John 3:

Let No Man Deceive You With Vain Words
Ephesians 5-6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
Colosians 2 16-17 KJV - Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Colosians 2-18 Let no one keep defrauding you of your prize by delighting in self-abasement and the worship of the angels, taking his stand on visions he has seen, inflated without cause by his fleshly mind,And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you."
Matthew 24:4 LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU
The Lord tells us over and over again in his word (bible), “Let No Man Deceive You.”So, it is in our best interest to pay close attention to this warning. But, how do we know that weare being deceived? The Lord provides us with the answer to this question in his word.
Lets begin by reading Ephesians 5:6 –6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. As we can see in the above verse, man will deceive us with vain words. But, what does the Lord consider vain words to be?
Vain words have no value and can be summed up in thisway: anything that is not of God (according to his word/truth) is considered vanity. For example,any doctrine after the traditions of men, man’s imagination, church beliefs, confessions,denominations, etc. is not of God and anyone that is following these rather than the bible alone isbeing deceived by vain words and is under the wrath of God.
The Lord tells us that many people will be deceived by false doctrines. They will say that their doctrine is of Christ, is the Way, is the Truth, and is the Word of God. But, the Lord warns us to be cautious of what man tells us, as stated in the following verses:
Matthew 24:4,5– 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name saying, I am Christ: and shall deceive many. Matthew 15:9 – But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men,
Romans 1:21 – Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Colossians 2:8 – Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the traditions of men, after the rudiments (basic principles) of the world, and not after Christ.
Proverb 14:12 – There is a way which seemeth right unto a man but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Call To Perserve
Threfore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when you endured in a great conflict full of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You suffered along with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions.
So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For, “In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.” And, “But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back.”
But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
Hebrews 10:19-39

God Can Turn Back Time
We all have missed opportunities or blown chances at some time in our lives. We can look back and think, Why didn't I put more effort into that relationship? Why didnt I take that job? Or, Why did i spend all those years running with the wrong crowd, partying, when I should have been getting ahead?
Some people missed out oppportunities because they were raised in an unhealthy environment or grew up in proverty. Whatever the reason, when things dont go our way, it's tempting to think, Too bad for me. I'll never have that chance again. I've missed my season.
But the good news is that God always has another season. He said in the book of Joel 2:25 that He will restore the years that have been stolen.
You may not be able to relive your childhood, but God can make the rest of your life so rewarding and so fulfilling that it makes up for lost opportunities in your past. :") You may feel you're wasted years in a relationship that didn't work out, years on a job that turned out to be a dead end. Don't be discouraged.
God controls time. For every opportunity you've missed, every chance you've blown, God can turn back the clock and bring bigger and better things across your path.
When I met Linda at a book signing, she told me that she'd been suffering from regret over her daughter. Linda admitted that she had not been the best mother in the world. She and her daughter Paula had not spoken in years. She had reached out to her several times but daughter would not have anything to do with her.
"We lost so much time that we could have had together," She said sadly.
This mon was deeply discouraged. Linda felt she'd flunked motherhood. To my surprise that day, Linda introduced Paula standing in line behind her. Both women had tears streaming down their faces. They ran into each other while waiting in line and reunited that very day. When they saw each other, it was though God had torn down the wall keeping them apart.
All the hurt, all the pain, all the resentment melted away in a spilt second. That night was a turning point. Their relationship was restored, and today Linda and Paula are making up for lost time!
Maybe you'r dealing with a strained relationship. Maybe you've experienced conflicts and hurts. You may have built up a wall of hard feelings. You may feel someone once close to you has become a negative influence in your life.
Do not make the mistake of settling into a bitter relationship. Relationships can be healed. No disagreement had to last forever. Keep believing. Keep praying.
If you will stay in faith, God will restore your relationship. And he will make up for those lost years. God wants to turn back time. Dont' settle for less than God's Best.
~Story of Hezekiah and the extra fifteen years that God granted him~
==================================================
Hezekiah made a bold request that God turn back time. Basically, Hezekiah was saying, "God if this promise is to come to pass, if You add years to my life, don't just stop time," He said. "I know You can do that. I want You to do something more difficult-something even more out of the ordinary. God, I'm asking You to make the shadows go in the wrong direction. I'm asking You to turn back time."
That took alot of nerve. He asked God to interrupt the entire solar system just to assure Hezekiah that His promise was sincere.
Sure enough, over the next forty minutes, Hezekiah watched the shadow go counterclockwise. The scripture says that the sun went in reverse ten degrees.
God was sending us the message too. I believe He was saying, "I can reset the clock in your life. I can restore the years you've lost."
If you stay in faith, a shift will occur.
You may think you've blown it. You may feel you've wasted too much time. Yet I'm convinced God has new opportunities in front of you. He wants the rest of your life to be better than the first part. :")
God will restore the seconds, the minutes, the hours, days, weeks, months, years you've lost. He will present you with opportunities you missed because you were in the wrong place. Even if it was your fault, God is good; He's so full of mercy.
God will give you another chance.

Warehouse
Imagine a huge warehouse in Heaven run by Saint Peter, the keeper of keys. As you walk down the halls, you see thousands and thousands of doors with names on them. Finally you come to a door with your name on the plaque. You halt and say to Saint Peter, "What is in there?"
He tries to downplay it, "Ah, nothing. You don't want to go in there."
"Sure, I do," you insist. "My name is on that door."
After debating for a few minutes, you finally convince Saint Peter to let you go in. He opens the door. Inside you see row after row of boxes on shelves. You hurry over to open up one, and then the realization comes: These are blessings that belong to me but have never been released!
The first box is a box of favor that God wanted you to have last week. But you never asked.
The next is a big break that God prepared for you last month. But you forgot to ask for it.
Down the row, there is a box containing the book you wanted to write but you gave up. Beside it is the business you wanted to create. Then there is one containing the healing God planned for you.
Row after row of blessings, favors, good breaks, good ideas. They all belong to you, but God never released them because you never asked.
I don't know about you, but I want to make sure my warehouse is completely empty. I dont want to be greedy. I dont want to be selfish. I simply want all that belongs to me. I want to be everything God has created me to be. I want to have everything God intended for me to have.
Ask so that you may receive.

Band-Aid
Dare to ask God for your greatest dreams and desires. Don't settle for a lesser dream. Deep down you may have a desire to become an author, to break an addiction, to serve the needy in another country. But you may feel it could never happen.
You may have been through disappointments. Maybe you've been praying for a long time and nothing has happened. Now, you've lost your enthusiasm so you're praying what I call "survial prayers."
God, just help me make it through the day.
Lord, help me deal with the boss tommorrow.
God, please make sure I don't get another speeding ticket.
There is nothing wrong with these prayers. But they are like asking the world's greatest surgeon to put a Band-Aid on your broken leg. The surgeon can do much, much more for you, if you would only have faith and ask for the best treatment.
Ask God for those bold dreams and desires you've let go of. He can still bring them to pass. Remember when you ask Him, you are releasing your faith. Scripture says in Ephesians that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we can ask or think. :)

Spider Web
During World War II, a U.S. marine was separated from his unit during intense fighting. The smoke was so heavy, he became disoriented. He lost all contact with his comrades. He was alone in the jungle. He could hear the enemy soldiers getting closer and closer.
Then the marine saw a cliff riddled with caves. He ran to it and hid in the cave, hoping he wouldn't be found. There, he prayed for God's help and protection. As the soldier prayed, a spider dropped down over the entry of the cave and began spinning a web.
The marine had to laugh, despite his fears. "God, i needed a brick wall, and You send me a spider?"
Still, as the spider created a thick web of many layers, the battlefield grew silent. The marine sat there for hours and hours. Then, he heard enemy soldiers checking nearby caves. He braced himself for his final stand. But when the enemy came to his cave, one of them noticed the huge spiderweb over the entry.
"We don't need to check in here," he said. "No one could have gone in and without disturbing the this web."
God supernaturally protected that marine's life. He later asked for God's forgiveness. "Now i realize with You a spider's web can be stronger than a brick wall."
God has us in the palm of His hand.
He has everything you need. And even if He doesn't have it, He can create it. He can cause a spider to spin a web and keep you out of trouble. He can cause one smooth stone to hit a giant and bring him down. God is in complete control.

Quit looking at what you don't have. God is saying, "I can become what you need."
God Is On Vacation?
Have you ever prayed and prayed, but it seemed that God was on vacation? Have you ever had those seasons when everybody around you was being blessed, but the good breaks just passed you by? You felt overlooked. Even though you were in a relationship, or married, you still felt all alone?
Do you have a smile on the outside but feel empty on the inside? Do you feel as though nobody knows what you are going through and worse, nobody cares?
Its easy to feel forgotten. But when loneliness sets in, look to God's great promise in Isaiah 49:15-16 He said, "I will not forget you. I have engraved you into the palm of My Hand."
You are not forgotten. You are not abandoned. God remembers you!
People may forget you, others may do you wrong, friends may betray you. Those you count on may leave you when you need them the most, but God is the friend who sticks closer than a brother. :)

A Year From Now
You may have some areas in your life that you need to get under control. God is saying, Don't put if off any longer. Today is the day to start. Today can be a new beginning. If you'll take this to heart and be willing to press past the pain of change, a year from now you won't be the same person. You'll be free from addictions, free from bad attitudes, free from the bondage that's been holding you back.

The Lord is My Strength and My Song
Start or end the day by making melody in your heart unto God, singing or listening a song of praise. That's what I do. I like to end my day with a song of praise. You can start your day with a song of praise. Even if you don't do it out loud, at least do it on the inside. Sometimes some songs just keep ringing in my head. And i can't get it out. :")
Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. Isaiah 12:2

A Life of Faith
God intends for you to be happy, peaceful, contended, and to enjoy your life. God wants us to be examples of what it means to live a life of faith. When people see us, they should see so much joy, peace and happiness that they will want what we have.

i Want To Thank You God
i want to thank you God for many things. You have done so many things for me. I know you always makes things happened. All has happened is under your hand; you always create miracles for me and do what is impossible for me without even me asking at many times.
i cant say thanks enough and how much i love you as you have loved me. I loved our quiet moments together when you would speak to me on my bed; reading your words.
i Thank You for your confirmation and affirmation to me today that i must keep going strong and stay in your words.
Please surround me with your loving people. And may we all grow together stronger and wiser in your words, in your kingdom.
Thank you oh Lord for the beautiful life you have given me. i can see myself closer and closer to what you want for me.
Am very glad we have this special kind of connection and the way you always speak to me.
Till then our loving father, friend, brother and my love.
Night! :")

Be The Bigger Person
If you wait for somebody else to be the peacemaker in your whole lifetime, living your life on hold. Peace starts with you; you make the first move. It may not be fair, but it can keep you together. Swallow your pride. Be the bigger person. When you do that, you are sowing a seed, and God will always make it up to you.

Train the Mind
The apostle Paul said, "I have learned how to be content no matter what state I'm in." Think about that. He said, "I have learned to be content." In other words, this didn't happen automatically. He had to train his mind to stay at peace. He had to train his mind to look on the bright side. He had to train his mind to focus on the good. We must do the same thing.
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. Philippians 4:11

Do Not Doubt
It has been a long time since that i read directly from the Bible..
The Fig-Tree Withers
Early in the morning, as Jesus was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, “May you never bear fruit again!” Immediately the tree withered.
When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?” they asked.
Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
Matthew 21:18-22
