Awareness

Do you know that God has given us many talents and abilities, to be used for His glory and honour. We are made to please Him, the way we seek to please the ones we love and who love us. We speak out vehemently against secular musicians and movies which add nothing to the body of Christ but gratify the human fans of the industry who dictate what should be produced to please them. Many of us who claim to the Church of God do not listen to songs of God’s kingdom which tell of His glory. We do not patronize gospel musicians and movies therefore their industry is starved of funds and pushes many of them to the secular industry. Remember we will give account to God of the talents He has given us and also how we spent our time. When you listen to, watch and encourage secular artistes you are indirectly putting man above God. This is because secular media is all about what the majority of the fan base want- human satisfaction. Profanity, vulgarity, blasphemy, indecency, purposelessness, lack of- lessons, morals, knowledge or edification exists in secular media, after which the recipients either remain the same or plunge deeper into iniquity and sin; thus going further away from God.
Be aware today that you can break free from the secular world and represent He Who you believe in, by what you sing, listen to, watch and pay for.

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
