God Wants Us To Have Integrity

His integrity is so much greater than ours is even though we do all we can to reach his level.

Raising a child in the way they should go is for you as a parent to live what you teach them. Then they will see it and never depart from you.

We should learn acceptance of how God deals with a situation. Knowing in the end he will get the victory! Stay fired up and keep on the right course no matter what comes or goes.

2Cor.10 [4] (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
[5] Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Don’t make a vow and not keep it, be faithful to what you tell be people and be diligent about doing it . Do not put off for tomorrow what you can do today. Be diligent in everything you vow. It is better not to vow then vow and not keep it.

Ecc.5 [4] When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
[5] Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.

Many will say I don’t care what people say about me. In some ways they are right. we cannot live our lives trying to please people. Yet to say you do not care what people say is not a good approach. God wants us to set a good example to all people and to let his light shine thru us. There will always be haters. Yet I am trying to learn not to let their opinions bother me. I believe we must be true to ourselves. Know we are standing in God’s will for our lives. God needs people who are going to do all they can to stand then stand.

Eph.6 [13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
[14] Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
[15] And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

Matt.5 [16] Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven

We must understand that when we become Holy ghost filled, that there is a reaping and sowing law that comes into effect. The spirit will guide us where we are to go! If we rebel then we will reap what we sow. If we do what it leads us to do then we will also reap what we sow. It is important that we know if we reap good seed we will reach a good crop , If we sow bad seed we will reap a bad thing.

Gal.6 [5] For every man shall bear his own burden.
[6] Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teaches in all good things.
[7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.
[8] For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

The Holy Ghost will lead us and guide us into all truth and will bring every thought into the captivity of Christ and nothing will harm us if we are willing to pay the price and overcome the nature or carnal mind that is against God.
John.16 [13] Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but what-soever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

2Cor.10 [5] Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into cap-tivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Rom.8 [6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
[7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not sub-ject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
[8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God

To have obedience is better than to sacrifice! Obedience is about loyalty to God and valor and glory for being able to yield or turn ourselves over to the all mighty God. We must obey his every com-mand.
1Sam.15 [22] And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

If we are committed to something! We have and use our integrity to do something then it will be hard to break or not succeed in my opinion.!

Some times we get to caught up in our natural life with work and hobbies and even family to give God his time. We must read and study our bible every day. The bible say’s we must pray without seizing. It say’s the word is like a lamp unto my path! creating a sure foundation to keep us from falling back into any temptation that might surround us.. It says the word have I hid in my heart that we might not sin against him. We must take time out and rest in God every day.
1Thes.5 [16] Rejoice evermore.
[17] Pray without ceasing.
[18] In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Pss.119 [11] Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
[12] Blessed art thou, O LORD: teach me thy statutes.
[13] With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
[14] I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.
[15] I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
[16] I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

I believe it that settles it, is an awesome statement! We much have child like faith and have grace that allows us to humble ourselves. Then there is the femininity of God that helps us set our pride and ego a side and to take on the likeness that Jesus showed when he was crucified and how he lived his life in most cases. He did get angry though.

Heb.11 [6] But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. we must not say we have faith we must act on it. It will give us hope and strength to do the next right thing.

It is not by our might or how strong we think we are in the flesh: it is by the spirit of God dwelling with us and in us. That will allow us to have Eternal life.

Zech.4 [6] Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

When we pray we must press our way into his Kingdom! Keep pray-ing until you feel the spirit inside stirring up in your belly and keep pressing in until you speak to the father in his heavenly language. We must learn to yield our way into the spirit and allow it to pene-trate into our hearts and our minds. Know the enemy or Satan wants nothing to do with the spirit. If we do not yield into it we will just being walking in the flesh not in the spirit.

We must stay committed and stay converted by his spirit not our own spirit. Keep the fire burning down inside. The Holy Ghost should help us want to stay committed to the things of God: not the things of the flesh. We must live in the world and not be off the world. Many believers are involved with politics and all the media. the bible says for us not to be entangled by the things of this world yet people want to bring it up. It is because they are still walking in the flesh thinking they are spiritual.

2Tim.2 [4] No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a sol-dier.
[5] And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, ex-cept he strive lawfully.

We must redeem the time ! We must put our faith into action, and become warriors and witnesses of his greatness.
We can not be shading slothful depressed unsure of the work of the Lord that is taking place in our lives. We cannot allow our past to dictate our future. We have to get rid of any bitterness, wrath and evil ways. We have to learn to forgive ourselves and learn to love ourselves before we can truelly forgive others and learn to love oth-ers for who they are and not who we think that they should.

Paul said that he pressed towards the mark of the High calling in Christ Jesus than he said he finished his course. so we know there is a race and we must seek god’s face first in our life. Until we com-plete our course like Paul did.
