How to Postively Respond in Life Critical Conversations?


 Responding Rightly To People
 
.
 

 

Col. 4:6 “Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you have the right response for everyone.”

 

How can we respond rightly to people who are speaking to us concerning their concerns, or needs whether it is positive or negative?

 

The Bible words states that when we respond to people needs we must be gracious and attractive.

What is gracious responding? We respond kindly with a kindly spirit. What is attractive speaking? Jesus said, “Have salt in yourselves” Luke 14:34 it the wholesomeness we speak. We need to speak with wisdom, gracious and salt.

Sometimes we get so wrapped in our needs than their needs. We want to be heard first.

I firmly believe that at times need to listen more than talk. How can we do this? We need to focus on people’s words, facial expressions and their body language. We need to speak slowly, lowly, and listen. We need be sensitive to our tone and our pitch as we speak to people.

Facing Life Fears


No Fear Mon!!!!!
 

 

"I am coming for you!" says Isis extremist! We live in a world with so much life changing events. What must we do?  We must fear no man! Our God is control of our lives.

Isaiah 44:1-8                                                                                                                               verse1 yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:

 Verse 2 Thus saith the Lord made thousand formed thee from the womb, which will help thee, O Jacob, my servant; and thou Jerurun, there is no other beside me thou I have chosen.

Verse 6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lords of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last, and beside me there is no God.

 

What is this passage saying to me?  Eddie has no Fear Mon!

1.    God is saying, “I am God! Period there is no other. I am in control of your future!”

2.    God is also saying, “I made you and formed you thus I am your God and I am in control of your future.”

3.     God is lastly saying, “I am the first and the last. I am in control of your future!”

 

In one of my pastorates I had a threat on my life. I had a call on a Sunday morning that someone was coming to kill me by bring a gun to church. Well, I was in the sanctuary. I saw through the window a car had pulled up.  I also saw a woman and a child came out of the car and hurriedly came down the hallway. I stood at the entrance of the sanctuary. My heart was beating very fast. I felt a rush and the power and presence of God.

 

 I said to the anxious woman, “Come in”

She said,” I cannot come in.”

Why? I said.

Don’t you see someone with a sword standing by you!

No! I replied with a feeling of protection

Yes! There is someone beside you, I cannot come in!

Well, with that she turned and panicky and hurriedly the woman left the building.

 

   Dearest friends, our God is in control of our destiny!! Our God, the Lord Jesus Christ will never forsake us no matter what life events will throw at us. I firmly believe thrust him and him alone and fear not. God will redeem us!

Love,

Eddie

Is something about to Change Human Histroy?


 

 Boom! Pop! Crack! Is something very near soon going to happen in connection with four blood moons? Are we seeing the Nations: Iran, Iraqi, Islamic radical terrorist, Russia, Turkey and Germany coming together against Israel? Could we face a nuclear war and the rapture of the church!

I will show wonder in heaven above

And signs in the earth in t earth beneath

Blood, and fire and vapor of smoke

The sun shall be turned into darkness.

Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.

                                                               Acts 2:19-20

I recommend for all to read John Hagee book:" Four Blood Moons "
 
We don't know the hour, or day but Jesus is coming again! The rapture of the church is near are you ready? Do you know Jesus in your heart. Call on Jesus, and confess your sin, repent and you will have the peace of God!
