.....THINKING IS NOT WORRY...part 1.
Most often people tend to misinterprete or confuse both as though they are the same but in reality they are not.
.....THINK...
To think means to ponder, to go over in one's head.
It means to communicate to oneself in one's mind, to find solutions to problems.
It means to conceive of something or someone.
....WORRY.......
It means to disturb the peace of mind, afflict with mental agitation or distress. It means to be troubled, to give way to mental anxiety.
Anxiety is an unpleasant state of mental uneasiness, nervousness, apprehension and obsession or concern about some uncertain event.
Thinking has to do with strategizing,planning but worry is a form thought that has been blown out of proportion resulting to mental anxiety since the imaginations formed reveal hopelessness.
This is to say that thinking is focused on achieving the task ahead(Hope) but worry is a result of seeing hopelessness.
Philipians 4:6" be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God".
" Be careful for nothing......" Is the same meaning with Matt6:25" take no thought....."
Take no thought means to be anxious about. It is from the Greek word "Merimnao" meaning to be anxious, worry. This means to be troubled with cares.
In reality, it is easy to say be anxious for nothing when thing are going well. But the bible said be careful for nothing as been independent of circumstance. Apostle under the influence of the HolySpirit said this when he was in prison standing trial which might lead to a death sentence. With all the pressure of personal challenges weighing on him said to people in Philipi to be " anxious for nothing".
Apostle paul could say this because of what he sees and not what he feels. In Philipians 3:7-14 " but what thing were gain to me , those I count loss for Christ............ That I may win Christ, and be found in Him, not having mine own. Righteosness which is of the law. That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death. I press towards the mark FOR THE PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS."
Apostle Paul only see the prize (the hope) and NOT the consequence of hopelessness. What he sees has so overwhelmed him, that he present challenges were not real to him. What he sees is so much that everything about him also see the prize aS achievable.......... The next sequel will be out soon..God bless you all..

...YOU ARE WHAT YOU SAY...        "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Rom10:10  Our opening verse says ".....with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.." The word confession in the new testament is derived from the Greek word "homologia" meaning to speak the same thing in agreement with another. This means that you should agree with, and say what the Word of God says about you or your situation. Just like God said in the beginning "let there be light" and light appeared, so has He given you the ability to speak, to create things (bring those into being). Don't damage your destiny with your mouth but declare the Word to your world. Never talk failure. ............God bless you all...

THE BLESSING...........PART 1

By
THE BLESSING Proverb10:22 "The blessings of the Lord, it maketh rich and he addeth no sorrow with it" "..... and God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it and have dominion......" Gen 1:28 From the last verse, you will find that the last thing that God did after creating was the blessing. Blessing means empower to succeed and this was done by speaking words. Riches and wealth do not depend on the location of your business, neither on the capital but depends on the blessings.... Once a man is blessed, he is not limited to his environment, location or tribe. He is independent on his background. Jesus often go to hide in the mountains to pray but multitude still come to look for him. This is because he carries the blessing. 1 Chronicle 4:9-10"........and Jabez called on the God of Isreal saying, oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed...." you see He discovered a secret that it is the blessing.
