When People Disappoint You!

It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God.  Have you ever had friends you thought would always be there for you, but at the first sight of tragedy they vacated the premises?  One day they’re right beside you, but the very next day they’re no where to be found.  One day you’re sitting around planning your futures, but the next day their plans exclude you.  Have you ever shared your personal life stories with a family member or friend only to later hear your business all over the church, the job, the neighborhood and/or the beauty shop (barber shop)?  You specifically asked that no one tell this information to anyone else.  Now you are in a position where everyone knows your inner feelings.  Have you ever been there?  Are you there now?
This morning, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you.  My friend, what do you do When People Disappoint You?  How do you handle the times when the people you trusted the most turn their back on you?  How do you recover from bruises and scars left by people you would give your life to defend?  The Bible declares in Psalms 118:8 - It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.  There are times in our lives when family members and friends, we love and adore so much, will break our hearts.  Whether intentional or not, there are times when you find yourself “all by yourself!”  Not because you chose to make it this way, but because of the disappointments you experienced while dealing with people.  You must understand man makes a lot of promises, which sound good, but the fulfillment of them are never kept.  Be careful not to place your trust in people who have the same potential to fall as you do.
My brother, my sister, what do you do When People Disappoint You?  How do you handle knowing your closest friend has been spreading nasty rumors about you?  How do you handle being rejected by people you try so hard to help?  How do you handle these matters?  The Bible declares in Proverbs 18:24 - A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.  Beloved, there will never be a friend as faithful, loyal and loving as the Lord Jesus Christ.  While many people may argue this point, I know it to be true.  Jesus is the only friend you can tell your deepest, darkest secrets to and know one ever finds out about them.  He is the only one able to handle whatever mood you are in, matter you are facing and mountain you need moved.  Prayer for Today: Father, help me to know You are a friend that will never disappoint me.  In the name of Jesus … Amen!
Scripture Reading for Today: John 15:15-16
May God Bless you at Your point of need!
AMEN.

100 DATING TIPS

  Don’t take dating too seriously:  This basically means that you should enjoy your dates more.

GOD VS. FORNICATORS @SEX + NO MARRIAGE #fornication #fornicating #fornicated

IT'S TIME FOR US TO LEARN THE SEX LAWS OF GOD ALMIGHTY.  Is God going to forgive those who refuse his laws and rules about sexuality? Or will He punish them?  God already told us (read below). And we thank GOD that there is forgiveness of sins and mistakes available to us, before it's too late.... "Fornication" is defined as "voluntary sexual intercourse between two unmarried persons or two persons not married to each other." "fornicari, ‘to commit fornication,’ from which is derived fornicatio, ‘whoredom, fornication.’" How does God Almighty define a marriage? Jesus Christ teaches: " Have ye not read, that he  [GOD ALMIGHTY]  which made them at the beginning   made them  male  and  female , And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother ,  and shall  cleave  to his  wife : and  they twain shall be  one   flesh ? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore  ...

What God Can Do in Five Seconds

God can do more in five seconds than we can do in five hours or months or years. This is one reason the habit of prayer is wise. Sometimes we do not get the five second breakthrough because we do not ask. To be sure, God ordains to do many good things through hours or months or years of labor. Prayer is not meant to replace toil. For example, God wills that a chapter be read, or a meal prepared, or a friend visited in the space of hours not seconds. He wills that a house be built in months not hours. He wills that a child be reared in years not months. But there are breakthroughs which could come in seconds. They often take us hours or days or months if they come at all. I have in mind especially the breakthroughs of insight that open a world of life changing truth and practical wisdom. All of Us Have Blind Spots and Blind Moments Many obstacles to joy and fruitfulness are owing to the fact that we cannot see reality the way it is. We cannot see the meaning of a biblical...
