Religion / Safety, Where Art Thou by Glopatience(f): 2:12pm On Jun 29, 2020
Good afternoon, Sir/Ma.

Trust you're good.

It gladdens my heart to know that you made it to the last Monday in the Month of June.

Congratulations, Sir/Ma.

Here ���� I brought something that would quench your thirst.

Please, sip it with ease.

Safety, Where Art Thou?

Written by: Edet Crownofglory Patience

Wandering about, I questioned myself intently.
As a growing child, I was told that safety abides in our homes.
What happens now?
These perpetrators of evil barge into peaceful homes unannounced and wreck unimaginable havocs.

Later, I was told that safety now abides in the house of the Lord.
Surprisingly, I searched the house of the Lord only to discover that safety is missing.
Properties get stolen and lives get destroyed in the house of God.

What then is safety? I asked no one in particular.
Who took safety? I searched and searched intently.
Where did safety travel to? I asked the Lord.
Who hid safety? I searched nooks and crannies, still with the handwriting of confusion written across my face.

Safety!!! Where are you? I lamented.

The world is facing turmoil.
The Church ought to be our solitary place, right?
What do we have today?
These evil men and women have entered the Church.
They've turned the house of the Lord to a place of unrest.


Jointly, let's pray for God to return safety to our homes.
We need safety in our Church - The Body of Christ.
We need healing in our land!!!

Safety!!! Please, come back and give us shelter.
Evil men and women, leave us alone!!!!
Let our homes be our shelter, please!!!
Let the house of God be our comfort zone.


Then I heard the Lord say, He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Indeed, safety is with the Lord!
Confess your sins and He will forgive your sins.
Trust in Him and you'll be saved
Abide in Him and You'll be eternally secured.


Brother, waste no time in running to Him
Sister, delay not in surrendering your life to Him
Remember, except He watches over a city, the watchers labour but in vain.
Allow Him to keep and protect you.


Evil men repent, confess your sins and turn to God;
For tomorrow may be too late
He is ready to be your friend now!
Tomorrow, He might be thy judge.
Come home son, hear Him call thee,
Turn back daughter, listen to the small still voice.

Remember, the Lord is waiting for you in Revelation 3:20.


Stay blessed and safe.

Religion / Re: Money & It's Connection With Evil by Glopatience(f): 2:28pm On Jun 26, 2020
You mean those who wrote the Bible did so like every other literature book?

You mean the Spirit didn't lead them to write the Bible?

Thank you for your time.

You mean obedience without prayer?
Religion / Re: The Cankerworm II by Glopatience(f): 1:01am On Jun 23, 2020
Kobojunkie:
ok.
Jesus prayed to God, yes, but did Jesus ask us to pray to God for sanctification? If yes, where? undecided He prayed for us and not for Himself


Sure, Jesus Christ said We should pray for anything, but He also old us exactly what it is we need to do in order to be sanctified.

So, why continue to "ask" for that which you already have answers to? Why not simply do what has been commanded?

Obedience is what is keeping the majority of "believers" from obtaining sanctification i.e. becoming born again(born of the spirit of God) , not prayer. No amount of prayer is going to fulfill the works necessary for that to happen...and prayer cannot be used to counter or cancel out that requirement. Obedience is the key, not prayer.
How does a sinner obey?

So what does the bible say in 1st Timothy 6:10?
Religion / Re: The Cankerworm II by Glopatience(f): 10:44pm On Jun 22, 2020
Kobojunkie

The Bible says "Be angry and sin not", by this it means your anger is only justifiable when you are angry against sin like Jesus did in the temple.

He was angry at what their act but he didn't commit any sin.

Jesus prayed to the Father to sanctify us through His truth... Thy word is truth. This is a prayer.

We are to pry to God for whatever we want.

He said if ye ask ANYTHING in my name.

Asking God whatever you want is a prayer.

Read and understand me please.

Money isn't evil but the love for money is what is evil.
Religion / Money & It's Connection With Evil by Glopatience(f): 12:53pm On Jun 21, 2020
Written by: Edet Crownofglory Patience


"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1st Timothy 6:10

The Bible says the LOVE of money is the root of ALL evil.

What makes the love of money the root of all evil?

I came to understand this better during this pandemic era.

It amazes me how so many young people who call themselves Christians become servants to money.

They allow themselves to be controlled by money.

How?

They ridiculously attend to errands that ridicules them.

Now read this:

Money is considered to be evil when you who call yourself a Christian, dumped your faith and subdued yourself as a servant to money.

This makes you a new Judas Iscariot; who sold Jesus Christ for money.

Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity, says the Holy Scriptures.

How much is money that you will give in exchange for your life in eternity.

You see that, once you allow yourself to selfishly love money, then, there is no limitation to the atrocities you will commit in the name of money.

Examples of such atrocities are: stealing, internet fraud - that's 'Yahoo Yahoo', using what you have to get what you want - that's prostitution, involving yourself in rituals e.t.c.

Please, don't misunderstand me, the Bible doesn't say that money is evil, the Bible says that "The Love of Money is the root of ALL evil"

Did you see the emphasis there? The Bible mentioned that ALL evil, meaning that the love of money is the foundation of every other evil. Hope you got that?

Once you LOVE money, then, you're gone!

Once you LOVE money, then, you're a betrayal of the Master!

Once you LOVE money, then, there is no limit to whatever evil you will commit.

Once you covet after money, then you're sure going to err from the faith.

My dear, truth be told; it is not easy but remember; the grace of the Lord is sufficient unto you.

Learn to take your stand where necessary, don't sell your worth because of a piece of money that won't pay your transport to eternity, neither will it serve as your visa to eternity.

Love the Master, and money will come your way through His blessings, not you dumping the Master by running after money.

Please answer this question; what happened to Judas Iscariot after he sold the master?

There's no good end to as many that sell the Master.

Please, make a wise decision today and the Lord will see you through in Jesus name... Amen

I await your testimonies.

@Kobojunkie

Answer to your first question, not all believers are sanctified.

You can pray it out.

Two: You should know when you lose your peace. Besides, our God isn't deaf to our prayers. Many times the devil introduces anger when he knows we're almost getting there. If you know about peace, then you'll discover this that I'm saying.

The Bible says that Moses lost his inheritance of entering the promised land because of that. That doesn't mean he didn't live long.

Religion / The Cankerworm II by Glopatience(f): 5:46pm On Jun 15, 2020
Another cankerworm I'll be dissecting through the help of the Holy Spirit is Anger.



Anger is a very dangerous cankerworm that the devil subtly inputs in the lives of Believers, in order to deprive them of their inheritance.


Remember Moses? He was assigned to lead the Israelites, which he did, but those people frustrated him to the point that he ANGRILY struck the rock that God instructed him to strike once.



Brethren, did he gain or lose as a result of that?



Of course, he lost. He lost his inheritance.



He lost access to the promised land - Canaan Land.



To be truthful, I had experienced this before.



I lost answers to months of hard labour in prayers, all because of five minutes' anger.



Click on this link https://crowninspires.com/2020/04/03/the-eleventh-hour/ to read about how I lost all due to anger.



Many times believer lose everything because of anger.



How does this happen?



The devil creates a situation that makes you feel hurt and angry at the same time, most especially, when he knows what you've prayed for is at the tip of your hands.



What should you do as a believer?



� Pray to be sanctified.



� Control your temperance: when there comes a situation that provoked you to anger, control your temperance.



One day I was really offended to my bone marrows, if I was to react, things would have been damaged.



You know what I did?



Like my mentor often tells me.



I kept mute and ruminated for a few minutes; despite the hurt, that was how I was able to control the situation at that moment.



� Believers, learn how to suppress this evil cankerworm with the help of the Holy Spirit, because, there's no way the Holy Spirit won't warn you about the evil to come.



Please, always heed to this warning and put the devil to shame.



God will continually give us the grace to overcome these cankerworms as we shame the devil in Jesus' name.



I'll like you to share your experiences relating to this cankerworm - anger, in the comment box.

Stay blessed, protected and vigilant till I come your way again.

Literature / The Cankerworm I by Glopatience(f): 9:42am On Jun 11, 2020
Written by: Edet Crownofglory Patience
[b][/b]
There are series of Cankerworms the devil works with, and by His grace, we shall be considering about eight of them.

There is this cankerworm that the devil almost used to destroy my life, but, to the glory of God, I had victory!

There was a time I spent a night at a friend's place.

The next day, it was time to shower, you should know how things are when you go visiting.

Trying to feel at home and to also manage somebody's things well.

C'mon! Don't look at me like that.

You want me to spell it out?

All right, I visited a sister and not a brother for your peace of mind.

I was in the bathroom with my phone, and there was a tiny little hanger there, so I placed my phone on the hanger after a word of prayer!

"Oh Lord, please, keep and protect my phone. Do not allow it to fall off."

On a second thought, I placed a bucket underneath the hanger, I kept that bucket there for the safety of my phone, just in case it falls off, or so I thought.

The CHECKER came around.

"If you indeed entrusted your phone into God's hands, then, there shouldn't be a need for this (the bucket), it simply means you don't trust God."

Immediately, I realized my foolish act. I begged God for forgiveness and removed the bucket.

What is the cankerworm I'm talking about?

The name of this cankerworm is DOUBT.

By placing the bucket there, it meant I didn't trust Him enough.

One of the things I realized is that; the devil uses doubt to hinder Christians from inheriting their inheritance.

The Lord has given us the access to everything in Jesus name but then, after prayer, the deceiver comes.

"The prayer was only a general prayer, the pastor wasn't referring to your case, don't deceive yourself. Ain't you still feeling the pains?" These and many more are the ways the tempter had been sneaking in to rub us of our blessings.

He makes you doubt the GIVER of the blessings.

He makes you doubt the source of the blessings.

He makes you doubt the genuineness of the blessings.

He makes you see nothing good in yourself, thereby making you build a wall of low self esteem.

My dear, the Lord knows the thought He has for YOU, they are thoughts of peace and not of evil, that will give YOU an expected end. Jeremiah 29:11

Now listen to this, that promise is for you that is reading this article and not for the public. Put your name in place of that YOU and it will surely work for you.

Believe it and it shall be unto you according to your faith.

Jeremiah1:10 says "Before I form thee in your mother's womb, I knew thee."

Tell me what He doesn't know about you.

Is your case worst than Jabez's?

I believe not.

Why then should you allow the devilish cankerworm to destroy the future/plan God has for you?

What should you do?

When doubt comes, shake it off.

"Oh! That Bible passage isn't really for me ooo"

Say, "Oh no! It is my portion because I am a daughter/son of the kingdom. Therefore, all the promises of the Father are mine!"

Stay blessed!

The Lord loves and cares for you, yes, I mean YOU, that fellow reading this.

He deliberately made you to go through this piece, therefore, activate your faith and receive answers to your prayers IN JESUS NAME...AMEN!

Literature / The Market Place by Glopatience(f): 4:31pm On Jun 05, 2020
Written by: Olapada Oluwapelimi Phillip

If you had been to a market before you will know that it's not a place for relaxation but a place for survival.

Many maybe wondering "why survival".

A market is a place of war, where only those that are well equipped will survive.

A market is a platform where vendors come together to sell their products or services to a curated customer. You must be aware that you are not the only one that is rendering the service; there are many others that are into that as well, and this makes competitions to set in.


Market is also crowded with various creatures, those that are aware of their purpose, visions, dreams, likewise, there are some people without vision, aimless people and minds without focus.

Don't be deceived by the multitudes of people, many of them lack vision. It only takes someone that is aware of his vision to do great exploit in life.


In order for you not to be like those that go to the market without clear vision, you must be aware of your existence.

Majority of those you see in the market just go to make numbers because they lack focus, many of them are distracted with the noise, many lost focus because of the crowd. For you not to be deceived, find yourself, discover yourself, rediscover yourself and you will start moving in a profitable direction.


Don't be like those that go to the market without purpose, you are sent to this world with purpose and it's your duty to discover your purpose. If you are living another man's dreams, that means you are not aware of your existence yet.


A Market is always a busy place, so don't toy with your life engage yourself in a productive task.

The question is: "With all these articles you continually post, how much are you being paid?"

You see that? People will always want to know your reason for doing things.

And my answer has always been; "No one is paying me anything. I am only doing what I love doing and I'm passionate about it.

Literature / Life by Glopatience(f): 3:21pm On May 11, 2020
LIFE

What is life?
What is people’s definition of life?
What do you see life to be?
These questions above are interesting questions that will enable you to know the real meaning of life. Providing answers to the questions of what life entails will give you insights about what life really mean. People have various definitions to the subject matter which is ‘life'.

The definition ranging from one opinion to another, some people see life as a world where dreams are to be achieved. Dreams are inbuilt potentials that reside in individuals. These potentials can only be maximized if you are able to dig out these potentials.

To some people, the moment they are able to fulfill their dreams they believe that life is worth living. Whereas, some other people who fail to maximize their potentials are the people that complain bitterly about life. These people see life as being unfair because the more they try to do something meaningful with their lives, the more difficult it becomes for them.

In an attempt to have the right view or perspective of life, there are some certain things that must considered in order not to fail in attempting what life entails. As I continue in this analogy, I want you to put this in your mind; life is as dynamic as human beings are. That is why we must not be fast to conclude about life because of its dynamism. One's knowledge of the subject matter varies.

I want you to know that life is a challenge. As an individual that wants to succeed in life, you must have it at the back of your mind that this life is filled with challenges. The way you handle or tackle every challenge that comes your way in life will determine what life will turn to be for you, either good or bad. On this note, I'll tell you to face all challenges of life, because if you fail to face them, then don't be surprised that the challenges will chase you.

Those successful people that are being celebrated year-in year-out were once faced with challenges of life but they didn't run away from them. If they had ran away from those challenges like you do, then nobody will celebrate them today. Therefore, I implore you to rise up to your challenges. Face them!

You have ran more than enough. Don't you think it is time to be courageous and face those challenges in order to be successful like these celebrated dignitaries in the society.

Life is a goal that you must be achieved. In the business term, goal simply means the objectives or target that an organization sets to achieve within a speculated time. In order to live a fulfilled life, you must achieve the purpose of which you were sent to this world.

The next question should be ‘how can I achieve these goals or objectives'? You can only achieve these objectives through the help of God. Without God there is nothing that you can do. It is written in the Scriptures that “I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me”. Do you know that many of the things you run after in life are not actually paramount?
You'll all agree with me that it is recorded in the Scriptures that “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things shall be added unto you”. The word of God is forever sure but the problem here is that we hardly obey the word of God. If you can trust in God and seek His kingdom first, then all those things that you struggle to achieve, will become easy for you to achieve through Christ Jesus.

If you’re yet to discover your purpose in life, then, you’ll probably be seeing life from a difficult angle. As a goal getter, I implore you to strive to become an achiever in order to have a less difficult life and that means you must discover your purpose first.

Life is precious, keep it. Someone may be wondering about this, but you will agree with me that life is precious. Life is full of different things that makes it worth living. There are times that things happen to you and you'll be surprised of what life threw at you, don’t be surprised, it happens.

Life is limited, make wise use of it. Life is limited due to the fact that “no condition is permanent”, the limitedness of life depends solely on how you handle it. The limitedness of life presents to you different opportunities and how well you make use of these opportunities determine how sensitive you are.
I will advise you to grab every opportunity that presents itself before you in order not to blame yourself at end.

Life is also a school that you must attend. When I mentioned ‘a school’ I know a lot of things will run through your mind. Like you know, a school is an educational institution where learning takes place. School and life are inseparable, the importance of school cannot be over emphasized. Life is a school that you must attend in order to be knowledgeable.

You know that before a student becomes certified, he/she must pass through some stages or processes. There are times he/she needs to attend lectures, sit down for personal reading and there are times he/she needs to sit for examinations. None of these aforementioned processes can be skipped by a student who wants to graduate excellently.
In regards to life; you must be patient enough to learn the lessons that life wants to teach you without boycotting any of the learning processes. Whatever situation you're going through right now, though it might be very difficult but the good news is that the situation is preparing you for the greatness ahead. Therefore, I implore you to keep focusing on the great mark and not to look back.

Life is a race win it. This life is a race and you must win it. The only way that you can win the race of life is through determination. The great personalities that are continually celebrated were able to win their races due to self determination. If you ask them, of course, thy will tell you their success stories. It is only champions that people will celebrate, no one wants to reckon with a failure. Hence, for you to win the race, then, don't stop focusing. Even when there is a million reason to quit, keep pushing up until you come out victoriously.

I want you to know that life is an experience. In all the above analyses, it will interest you to know that they are experiences that life give to us. Life gives every individual different knowledge. There is a saying that ‘we learn everyday’. Make sure you have all the experiences of life that will be useful for you to deal with the issues or challenges of life that are ahead of you.

Life is full of pleasures. Hence, you must be sensitive whenever you enjoy the pleasures of life. However, don’t be carried away with the pleasures in life so that life won't be hard for you after the whole enjoyment of life. You must know how to utilize your time. To every individual, time is very crucial; time wasted can never be regained. Life is full of fun, have fun with your head opened.

Life is full of ups and downs, be patient with it.
I was privileged to speak to one of my friends, I asked her about life. She said “life is unpredictable; that in this life you can't predict what will happen next”.

Can you see that life is very difficult to explain? Just be careful about life, because it can be very hurtful if you are not patient with it.

From the above analogies, you will agree with me that;
Life is a challenge, face it.
Life is a goal, achieve it.
Life is precious, keep it.
Life is limited, make wise use of it.
Life is a school, attend it.
Life is a race, win it.
Life is an experience, have it.
Life is full of pleasure, enjoy it.
Life is full of ups and downs, be patient with it.

All the above analysis will help you to define life. Not only will it help you define life, it will also give you the right perspective about life and it will guide you to achieve your potentials in life.
