Haunting & Consequences

I heard two good sermons this morning and wanted to share them with you. Jentezen Franklin and James Merrit.

Jentezen was talking about the haunting of the Ghost. James was talking about consequences.

The two sermons go together. The Bible says that God never leaves us or forsakes us. Since God is a three in one God that also means the Holy Ghost. God sees all. Sometimes we don't like that but it is the truth. We as Christians can never go anywhere out of God's view.

I myself will never figure out the Trinity. I don't have to. I just have to know that God so loved me that He sent His only Son to die on the cross for me. I know that when Jesus died on the cross God rose Him from the dead. When that happened God sent His Spirit to be a part of me. So three in one God.

Every day I thank God, I plead the blood of Jesus over myself and my family and I welcome the Holy Spirit to be anywhere myself or my family is. When I do that I expect that the Holy Spirit will lead us, guide us, teach us, talk to us and keep us.

It works the same way if we are about to go somewhere we don't belong, say something we shouldn't say, eat something we should stay away from or hang with somebody God says we should stay away from. Jentezen called it haunting. The Holy Ghost will always be faithful to haunt us so we stay out of trouble. The question is are we going to listen to Him?

James Merritt said do you suffer consequences by the things you do? Yes with every wrong thing we do in life we are going to suffer consequences. If your like me when you have done something wrong you beat yourself up wondering why did I do that. The Holy Ghost will always be faithful to show us our mistakes. Trust me we don't always like to be told what we are doing wrong but it is easier when God is showing us and not a person. God loves us unconditionally so when He shows us what we do wrong it is because of that love He has for us.

The three in one God is a free gift. Just ask Him to be a part of your life.

Forgot my Purse

 The other day when Butch and I and Willa left home, I got a little bit away from home and I realized I forgot my purse. Not a big deal came...
