HOW TO BUILD ACCORDING TO GOD'S PATTERN.

Exodus 25:9 For all the buildings and items God required of His people ie Moses and Noah,God gave a pattern for them to build.
The ark of Noah, tabernacle, ark of covenant...

God does not want you to rise then crumble down.

Jesus had been built by God to an extent He knew that there was a cup He ought to drink. Even when Peter rebuked Him because of speaking of His death, He was not shaken out of His purpose.

♡♡♡ You should have an impact to the generation you leave behind and people will talk of your God.

*** When God builds you, you cannot sink down with the floods.

Hebrews5:7 God saves you when you walk in submission to Him.
When God builds you there is a fire that comes upon you.

Luke 22:42-44 Submit to God and He will make sure He separates you from parterns that destroys your family.

♡♡♡ When God builds you its permanent and sure.

When you rise without allowing God to build you, you will crumble down.
Because of the destinies tied around you and allow God to build you.

■ The crushing that happens is not for you its for the people tied round.
When you are built by God even death cannot trap you.

To be built by God means

A) BEING BUILT ON THE WORD OF GOD
Matthew 7:24-25 Matthew 7:24-25
So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock. And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

♡♡♡ when you are built upon the word of God nothing can break you.

We are grafted to one who is perfect.
When founded on the foundation of God nothing is imperfect in you.

B)WHEN GOD BUILDS YOU, YOU LOVE HIM BEYOND HIS DEATH...
Beyond your expectations, beyond what God can give... you Love God for Him.

John 20:11-17
But Mary remained standing outside the tomb sobbing. As she wept, she stooped down [and looked] into the tomb. And she saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. And they said to her, Woman, why are you sobbing? She told them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him. On saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing [there], but she did not know (recognize) that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, Woman, why are you crying [so]? For Whom are you looking? Supposing that it was the gardener, she replied, Sir, if you carried Him away from here, tell me where you have put Him and I will take Him away. Jesus said to her, Mary! Turning around she said to Him in Hebrew, Rabboni!–which means Teacher or Master. Jesus said to her, Do not cling to Me [do not hold Me], for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to My brethren and tell them, I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.
John 20:18 Away came Mary Magdalene, bringing the disciples news (word) that she had seen the Lord and that He had said these things to her.


♡♡♡ You should love God beyond what you seek from Him.
Mary knew that If He is not on the grave He is in a better place.
Mathew7:11 When God builds you, you love him more.
■ After Peter and John went to the tomb and failed to find Jesus, they went back to lock themselves.
There was one who sought Jesus without ceasing to an extent Jesus ought to see her first before going to offer His own sacrifice in the heavenly altar.

♧♧♧ May your heart not grow cold nor fail to serve God because you have not received answers for your long awaited prayers.

God is a faithful Father. He wants us to mature from seeking bread from Him and start carrying His burdens.

♧♧♧ The reasons birds never lack is because they have understood the heart of the Father which is worship.
☆☆☆ Carry God's burdens and be sure that God has provided your bread.

■ God is calling you back to your first love.

C) WHEN GOD BUILDS YOU, FORGIVING OTHERS BECOMES EASY.
Letting go of burdens, offenses becomes easy for you.

Everything in the house of God belongs to us.

Matthew 22:34-40 Always seek to know the burden of God.
When God builds you, you forgive without anything attached.

D)YOU BECOME A REFERENCE POINT FOR MANY GENERATIONS.
You enter a realm of rememberance .
He puts you in the hearts of Kings
There is an intense conviction of sin.
You become a reference point for others.

God never tells us what others see. He never calls us what others
call us. Gideon thought he was a coward. God knew him to be a great
warrior and pronounced what He saw. "You might man of war".. Judges 6:12

God also saw in Peter what others failed to see. His given name was
Simon, which means meek. (Literally it means “unstable, flaky, leaf.”)
When Jesus met Simon, he was the flakiest, leafiest man you ever met.
He was always going with the wind—changing his mind. But God saw
a stone in the leaf. The first time Jesus met Peter, He changed Peter’s
name from Simon (leaf) to Peter (stone). Although Simon was an
unstable guy, Jesus said, “I’m going to change your name. Your name
is Peter.” Peter acted like a leaf throughout Jesus’ earthly ministry. Still
Jesus called him rock every morning. Jesus saw in Peter something his
mother had not seen. He kept chipping until finally, at Pentecost,
Peter’s true nature was revealed.

God's Amazing Creation Story for Kids!

William Tyndale, the man who translated the Bible into English and was burnt alive at the ridiculous young age of 42 years old, for his efforts. (Google Foxe's book of Martyrs.)

Nearly 500 years ago, this week, William Tyndale, fondly called 'Father of the English Bible' was strangled and burned at the stake after being tried and convicted of heresy and reason for translating the Bible into English.

HIS OFFENSE!
He translated the Greek Bible into English.

That you have a Bible in a language you can read is largely due to his labours, and many of the very phrases you read in it retain the flavour of his understanding of the Greek and Hebrew.

A graduate of Oxford and Cambridge, Tyndale had a powerful desire to make the Bible available even to the common people in England, in order to correct the 'Biblical ignorance of the priests.' At one point Tyndale told a priest, "If God spares my life, are many years pass, I will cause a boy that driveth the plow, shall know more of the Scriptures than thou dost."

Today, 90% of the King James Version of the Holy Bible and 75% of the Revised Standard Version are from the translation made by Tyndale, a man to whom you owe more than you'll ever know.

A nice dream, but how was Tyndale to accomplish his task, when translating the Bible into English was ILLEGAL at the time?'

He went to London to ask Bishop Tunstall if he could be authorised to make an English translation of the Bible, but the Bishop would not grant his approval.

However, Tyndale would not let the disapproval of men stop him from carrying out what seemed so obviously God's will. With encouragement and support of some British merchants, he decided to go to Europe to complete his translation, then have it printed and smuggled back into England.

In 1524 Tyndale sailed for Germany. In Hamburg, he worked on the New Testament, and in Cologne, he found a printer who would print the work. However, news of Tyndale's activity came to an opponent of the Reformation who had the press raided.

Tyndale himself managed to escape with the pages already printed and made his way to the German city Worms where the New Testament was soon published.

Six thousand copies were printed and smuggled into England.

The Bishops did everything they could to eradicate the Bibles. Bishop Tunstall had copies ceremoniously burned at St. Paul's; the Archbishop of Canterbury bought up copies to destroy them. Tyndale used the money to print improved editions!

Tyndale continued hiding among the merchants in Antwerp and began translating the Old Testament while the King's agents searched all over England and Europe for him.

A copy of Tyndale's "The Obedience of a Christian Man" fell into the hands of Henry VIII, providing the king with the rationale to break the Church in England from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534.
In 1535, Tyndale was arrested and jailed in the castle of Vilvoorde (Filford) outside Brussels for over a year.

Tyndale’s work was denounced by authorities of the Roman Catholic Church and Tyndale himself was accused of heresy.

Tyndale, 42 was finally found by an Englishman who pretended to be his friend but then turned him over to the authorities. After a year and a half in prison, he was brought to trial for heresy -- FOR BELIEVING, among other things, IN THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS and that THE MERCY OFFERED IN THE GOSPEL WAS ENOUGH FOR SALVATION. In August 1536, he was condemned and was executed [burned alive at the stake] publicly on October 6, 1536, in a small town in Belgium.

As he burnt to death, Tyndale reportedly said "Lord, open the king of England's eyes."

WAS HIS PRAYER ANSWERED?

YES! The prayer was answered first in part when three years later, in 1539, Henry VIII required every parish church in England to make a copy of the English Bible available to its parishioners. Today, Tyndale's prayer is fully answered, not only are the King's eyes opened, but the Bible a universal instrument.

i have never seen a man rely on God and end up in shame. By His grace and mercy, 2025 will be a year of wins and celebrations.

Here is how God works. Listen to this story.

John 3:16 coming into life. The word of God is living and is sharper than a double edged sword.

“For no man is damned precisely because God has not chosen him, but because he is a sinner, and does willfully refuse the means of grace offered.”

-John Calvin

1 Peter 1:3-4
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade.

God is good, all the time and al the time God is good.

The Holy Spirit Is Not an “It.” He Is God.

The Holy Spirit is not a force or an energy—He is a Person and He is God.

He teaches (John 14:26).
He can be grieved (Ephesians 4:30).
He searches the deep things of God (1 Corinthians 2:10-11).
Lying to Him is lying to God (Acts 5:3-4).

Call Him an “it,” and you deny what Scripture clearly teaches.

St. Patrick: From Slave to Preacher

When Patrick was a teenager, he was kidnapped during a raid on Britain and taken to Ireland to serve as a slave. After six years in captivity, he escaped, made his way back home, and eventually was ordained into the priesthood.

Then God, in his ironic way, sent Patrick back into the land of his former captivity to proclaim the freedom of the Gospel.

The boy who had been a slave was used by Christ to bring his word of salvation and life to a people who had been living in the darkness of pagan unbelief.

In Patrick we see the Lord of life at work, as we see him at work in our own lives. The God who can take a slave who seemed destined for nothing but death, and use his life to bring wisdom and light and salvation to the lives of so many others—this same God can and does work in our own lives.

We may seem destitute of hope, but the hope of Christ is stronger than our weakness. As he was for Patrick, so he will be for us: our companion in suffering, our life in death, our resurrection in the grave, and the Lord who uses us in his own way to bring blessings into the lives of others.
