Synopsis "Choose Life: The Secret of Abundance (in English)"
There is no good reason that anyone should live in anxiety, doubt, worry and fear. All anyone needs for a life of success and fulfillment is totally available and accessible. If anyone on this planet has a life of success and fulfillment, everyone can. Why waste life struggling and just getting by, begging God for bread crumbs, when we should be honored guests at the banquet? Life isn't something to endure until we can die and go to heaven. Heaven is not the Promised Land. The Promised Land is here and now. Deuteronomy 30:19, "I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore, choose life". If we have not entered into a life of peace and rest, trusting in the love and care of the almighty, one and only, God of all; something is wrong. God didn't call us out of a world of darkness to let us flounder our way through life. The promises of God are manifold and encompass every area of our lives. The word of God says he is our Shepherd, Provider, deliverer, defender, Strong Tower, Refuge, Fortress, Protector, Comforter, and on, and on. You name it. He's it. So, why did He promise to be all these things and then leave us to try and make it on our own, or with help from some friends? Does He delight in our struggles until we beg Him to intervene? This would not be love. This would be cruelty. The Bible tells us, "The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy". Don't allow the enemy to do this. We need to be smarter than that. We need to stop believing the lies. Why do we continue to focus on the lies of the enemy instead of the truth of God? What is stopping us from living this life in strength and confidence instead of worry and fear? If Satan loses the first battle of life and we accept Jesus as our redeemer, he regroups and attacks our lives in ways meant to keep us from becoming mature sons and daughters. He already lost the first battle. Don't allow him to win the second. The Bible says, "Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world; My God shall supply all your needs; I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me; The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want; Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you". I could go on and on. He didn't lift us up to let us down. The rules are simple. Jesus said there were only two. Matthew 22:37-40, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." If we live according to these two principles, our lives will be blessed; if not, they won't. We can have a life of victory. We can have a life of abundance. We can enter the Promised Land. The gate is Jesus, the power is the Holy Spirit, and the key is obedience. Join me in this journey and let's turn the world upside down.
