I have been quite stocked in the hallway. "Am trying figure things out but quite a hilarious yet an eye-opener at the same time. 'Hope you grasp what I'm trying to throw....

Let us see the Word that I read and re-read. It's quite a revelation I discover for this write-up or maybe can also be used for few sermons or devotionals. Such a gift, I tell you...., chew on as you go!
Then He spoke a parable to them, saying: "The ground of a certain rich man yielded plentifully. And he thought within himself, saying, 'What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?' So he said, 'I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build greater, and there I will store all my crops and my goods. And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry."' But God said to him, 'Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?' So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." Luke 12: 16-21
'Just think heavily about it. The Word of God is always timely for everyone. Let's focus our thoughts on what this precious gem is saying for us to learn and apply today.

Many times it is very easy for us people to think that we have long years left to live and enjoy. But that is quite a foolish perspective to posses. We must and need to live like we will meet with the Lord tonight. I say this again with a little conviction.... "tonight maybe our last night!" Hmmm... Are you ready?

Hey, don't get me wrong! "Am just trying to be strongly audible as it might be too noisy in your place, hey? Another thing, I don't want you to think of stopping your plans and works, towards the future. I don't mean that! And it doesn't mean you don't save. In fact, the Bible says a righteous man leaves an inheritance for his children's children. Let's just have a good grasp of reality!
Because we need to live in such a way that we will not be ashamed somehow, we need to take our priority straight..., and by that, our first priority I mean! As we will (in time) have to leave all sorts of unused and undesignated funds and property, sitting in the bank that are not going to do anybody any good when it comes on the subject of eternity.

For sure, someday we will have to stand before Jesus and give an account for all of our stuff. And that may be sooner than later! Maybe tonight! 'Just make sure you know where you stand and where will you be when it comes. And let this comes as a loud reminder for all of us!
How's your barn now? Filled or Empty? God bless.....
Shalom everyone!

world to obtain. As Jesus came to win the kingdoms of this world to our God. And the devil is saying, “Hey, You can take a shortcut. No one will know anyway, I will give You what You want. Try to bend a little, don’t be such a square! You don’t have to do it God’s way perfectly. You may have to compromise Your integrity a bit, just a bit but think of how quickly You will succeed! You can even avoid the whole sacrifice thing! No harm done! Just a little bend & a bit of compromise. You don’t have to do it God’s way.” And so the devil goes….
Lend me your ears and listen, anytime God has set a goal for you, and you are going to obtain something, the devil will always come and try to get you to compromise and offer you substitutes that could appear to be practical and easier to do. He will tempt you by saying things like, “You can get what you want without living by all those narrow, restrictive rules that God puts on people’s lives. You can be dishonest; you can be unfaithful; you can compromise; and you can still be blessed, and you can still be happy.”
