The Cure to Seeking Validation and People Pleasing (that will change your life)

Many seem to think that serving Jesus Christ in the Church of Jesus Christ is dull and boring – never! And you go and serve in His love and the risen and living Jesus equips you and prepares you for whatever confronts you. If it were not for the Love of Jesus Christ and the anointing power of the Holy Spirit I doubt if I would have been brave enough to make these recent visits to Uganda and Kenya. There were some difficult moments in the slums of Kampala and Nairobi and out in the bush where I was teaching at Leaders’ Seminars. Allow God the Holy Spirit to grow that amazing love within your heart and mind and life. You never know where it will lead you and there you can be helpful and useful and fruitful.

How can I be and become more loving, even in business, in my leisure and pleasure hours and most importantly, at home? Verses 22 and 23 of Galatians Chapter 5 must be among the most beautiful words which you could find to read anywhere – listen to them again. Yes, please do take time to read them. Is there anyone who could suggest any improvement? It would be a daring man who would seek to improve upon The Word of God – and only someone daft or wicked would want to change or modify it. Jesus Christ does not just want one or two of the characteristics to grow. Jesus aims to produce all nine characteristics in each of our lives. Again, you will not find this in any other faith. This is another truth that makes the Christian Faith unique – God, the Holy Spirit, growing, producing, fruit in a man – and the fruit comes only from the Holy Spirit.

How many people are searching after and seeking love that is real and lasting? How many would like to find a love that satisfies and does not disappoint? This is an area I have been studying in depth over these past weeks and months and although the answer is quite straightforward and comparatively simple, there are very few who discover and find that satisfaction. What about you? Are you willing to pay the price and make the discovery and enjoy the fruit of the blessing of true dynamic and energising love?

O, how many people would like to be able to exercise self-control! Our loving gracious concerned caring God desires to grow this quality within the lives of disciples of Jesus Christ. Read them again – there is almost a sense of blessing in reading them – Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control. Now there is no law against any of these nine qualities. There is no law which says – you must not be too loving – you must not be too joyful – you must not have too much peace. These are not natural qualities – they are supernatural – miraculous – as God the Holy Spirit grows these within us.

For anyone who believes in a higher form of life, having some concept of God is useful and, indeed, necessary, as this concept acts as a focus for introspective thought, meditation and prayer and forms the foundation for further development and spiritual understanding. Throughout history, there have been a number of different ideas on God, and each appears related to the culture and level of understanding of the people at the particular time. Even today, some are quite happy to accept a simple picture of God as a loving father, which is usually the case…

In life one comes to a point after a series of breakdowns where he finds himself inadequate. He is just not able to think anything other than fending food and paying bills.

I don’t know the condition of your life today. Maybe it is in ruins due to different reasons. Your life might have been destroyed by certain circumstances that befell you. You feel like there is no longer any hope. Good News: Your life can be re-built so it can flourish again. Such happened to the remnant that dwelt in the city of Jerusalem where the walls and its gates had been destroyed.

Grace which is the undeserved or unmerited favour of God has made salvation available to all that would believe. There is no reason for remaining under the captivity of sin.

The Creator of man desires the best for man. Although man strayed away from His original plan which brought the entire human race into untold hardship, He made a plan for man to be restored to his original state where man can have blissful relationship with his maker. This is the essence for salvation

Numerous self-proclaimed spiritual groups are targeting the President of the United States with black magic. This suggests significant parts of the metaphysical community either lack understanding of the law of karma, or don’t care about the consequences.

I know that there are many people who are very cautious or are ‘sitting on the fence’ when it comes to topics like psychic development and metaphysics, and I think this is due to the fact that these fields have received bad press by using their own jargon such as ‘connecting’, ‘channeling’ and ‘5th dimensional portals’ which sound very mysterious and strange to those who are not part of such groups or circles. So what I really want to do is de-mystify some ideas on psychic development and metaphysics by linking them to the normal process of human self-development and…

My husband has been retired for about 8 years and his mental and physical health are deteriorating. He hasn’t found himself a hobby outside of social media and he’s spent many of his days staring at a computer screen, a smart phone or a tablet. Over time, his mind and body have been slowly breaking down until his body got to the point where it filled up with fluids, his muscle tone is significantly reduced and his “get up and go” got up and left.
