Love never fails!


CHAPTER 13

1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

1 Cor 13:1-13

FIRE!

Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.

Get the Vision!

Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
Proverbs 29:18


Okay, you ready, check this, the Hebrew word for vision here is "chazown", which means like a divine revelation. Perhaps kind of like for your life, like find out what God's revelation/ dream/ vision is for your life. Once you got that you can battle with the darkness-es that you face in your life and overcome them, you will not perish as the next part of the vs. says. Now the Hebrew word here for perish, is "para'" which means kind of like, going astray/ neglecting. So as you understand the meaning behind the Hebrew words, the vs. can really start to make sense. Focus on what God has planted in your heart - the great future he has for you - and as you do that you will not falter, and get side tracked with what is important... and isn't anything that is not God's will for our lives unimportant????

You have the power!!!

But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
Deuteronomy 8:18


Notice, the vs. doesn't say that he Lord gives us wealth, but that he gives us the power to get wealth...

Tithing

When we tithe, we can expect a blessing, aka prosperity. So despite how I feel, despite, how things look, I am counting on God to bless me and give me prosperity.
