HOPE THIS HELPS !/* ... look PAST ME on this one !

just follow me on this one .. its crazy how t just told me not to think so hard just let this come to me ... && it did ... ii hope this helps someone as much as ii believe it will help me ... ii guess uu can title this one the 5 CHARACTERSITS to becoming a [BETTER] CHRISTIAN ...

1. REPENTANCE ... many ppl repent just to get by && say they are sorry just to impress ppl . but GOD can not be fooled . GOD says in his word those that use their own knowledge against GOD is a fool . ii dont know about yall but that aint cute to be called no fool especially is GOD says it . this word does not mean to simply say your sorry . its totally different from a "IM SORRY' . it means to stop watt uu doing and turn from your ways ! too many ppl only say im sorry but dont stop the sinning .

 2.PRIORITIES ... my churches motto is to LOVE ONE ANOTHER . TRUST AND PUT HIM FIRST. ii believe this should be true for everyone . we serve a jealous GOD . we have to realize when we praise && worship the product && not the manufacturer GOD is not pleased we have to keep GOD first in everything we do ! he is the one we should look to for everything . we need to stop looking at money && other ppl to solve our problems && look to GOD .

3.SUBSTITUTION ... after repenting [DO EVERYTHING UNTO GOD IN HONEST && IN TRUTH] && getting our priorities straight we have to substitute. when drug addicts go through rehab they got to substitute that addiction with something else to strengthen them and take their mind of the disease . GOD does the same with us we go through a spiritual && sometimes physical rehab within ourselves . uu can stop using a drug && still be around ppl that use it . uu have to surround yourself with new ppl that will encourage uu && help build uu up.  we have to set our selves apart . that does mean stop associating with those ppl but we are peculiar ppl that were set apart by GOD . there is nothing wrong with ministering but if uu are a baby christian and not strong enough to go back && fight those demons uu WILL get pulled back in ! my suggestion is fast && pray and substitute your sin or addiction with the word !

4. Endurance ... the bible says the race is not given to the swift nor the strong but  those  who endure til the end . WE HAVE TO STAY ON A STRAIGHT PATH . there are always gonna be things that try to pull us left or right . but we got to stay focused and keep our eyes on the prize . && we can not let fear nor doubt get in our way . FOR HE DID NOT GIVE US FEAR BUT LOVE PEACE & A SOUND MIND !

5.FAITH ... FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD . faith is a powerful thing uu got to have faith in order for everything in your life to work out according to GODS plan . GOD said he will supply all of your needs but he wont do it unless uu have FAITH ! DONT pray && worry the two just dont mix . its like saying GOD ii trust uu but just in case it doesnt work out ... GOD is a almighty and all powerful GOD there is no backup plans with GOD ! uu have to believe to receive , ask && it shall be given unto uu . but uu have to believe . see life && death , blessings and cursings is in the power of the tongue but if uu dont believe it then its just like uu having a gun with no bullets !

LIKE I SAID I HOPED THIS HELPS YALL TO KEEP FAITH DURING THIS FAITH WALK CAUSE I KNOW IT GETS HARD . BE BLESSED . LOVE ONE ANOTHER TRUST GOD && PUT HIM FIRST ! ...
