Don't get emotional with God, get intentional with HIM



It's true that God understands us as well as our emotions. But the truth is that if God is to answer our prayers according to our Emotions, there would be disasters.

According to English dictionary, emotion is defined as;

"A person's internal state of being and involuntary physiological response to an object or a situation, based on or tied to physical state and sensory data."

While, intention is describe as;

"The goal or purpose behind a specific action or set of actions."

Note the two definitions and their meaning.

So, stop serving God because of only what you want from him, but serve him intentionally with a conscious heart.

In conclusion, serving God, praying to God and all manner of reference to God, shouldn't be done with emotions alone but should be intentional from your heart.

Who are you?

  So on Sunday, I got a call from my boss that I had to go with a client to check a site.  Then I quickly got dressed up, wearing my complete site kit (including my safety boots) and I set out to meet the client.  So on my way, while walking fast and looking for a bike, I met a bike man looking as if he was waiting for someone.

EXPOSE YOUR LITTLE SECRET

An enemy will continue to torment you, until you TELL THE ONE that's greater than the enemy. Okay...... For example *as a child,* you broke a plate in your own father's house and the housemaid was there when you did, so he holds it as an allegation against you. So anytime you're alone with the maid, he cheats you or may even beat you. And after beating or cheating on you, he tells you that,  "if you try to tell your mum, I'll expose your secret with me. I'll tell mummy that you broke the only plate that she loves so much". So he does this all the time, he creates fear in you, he makes you feel scared of your own mum and may even create a boundary between you and your mum. And for a long time, the child is being tormented by the maid in his house. The mum is suspecting that something is going on with her child. She knows that something is wrong. She then asks her child; "My dear, what's is wrong? Open up to me?"  The child wants to talk, but d...
