“Check yourself!”

“So what I’m thinking about this morning is the so many failed friendships in life..Amen..and I am thinking about relationships that shouldn’t really ever have failed..Amen..and I mean what I am speaking of is what happens to these relationships in life?..how do you lose sight of the ones you love?..how do you walk away from once a bright and happy relationship with others?..Amen..because I think that most of the time what happens is we catch maybe that evil eye..Amen..you know we let things go and we ourselves overlook them..the way we are letting ourselves think towards our relationships..we overlook the so called secret places of our hearts and minds that only God knows..Amen..and what I am saying is simply this..what happens is jealousy comes forth and ruins everything..Amen..it creeps in and ever so slowly..for you know at first it may just be a thought against someone..Amen..the next thing you know you begin to talk about them behind their backs..Amen..and now mind you these people..these friends of yours have never done anything towards you..Amen..and I mean personally speaking here..they’ve been wonderful to you and your life..Amen..but there you go speaking poorly of them..finding fault in them..overlooking the good that they do..doing everything in your power to ridicule them..and as I say just start slowly building up walls between you both..Amen..and before long these attitudes and these things that you are overlooking..becomes HUGE things..because they grow into something..and guys guess what?..anything we put in the soil of our hearts and minds grow..and they will and they are growing something..Amen!”

“So what I wanna say is this..if you catch yourself doing these things..and God is correcting you about these things..then stop right there..and stop yourself..Amen..don’t let the enemy destroy Gods blessings on you and your life..all because of that ole evil eye that we say is jealousy..and envious..because with it comes strife and division..and that is an awful place to get in life..Amen..its terrible..but little things are big things..so don’t forget that..Amen..be wise for you are wise..and stop yourself from going down that pathway of life..for that cycle will never end for you..it will continue..because you’ll destroy one relationship..and then another..and another..and the cycle continues..and you end up in a sad place in your life..and its not because the Lord did this..or even the enemy..but you did this..all from being disobedient..all from letting things go..and overlooking them..and sweeping them under the rug..Amen..because when you start this with a person..and you let it go..it stays there..and every time you are around this person..you have all of these feelings and emotions towards them..and most of the time you think why?..but it’s the secret thoughts..its them secret conversations that you are having towards them..that builds walls..and destroys everything..so guard yourself and STOP yourself immediately..Amen..for I can’t help but think about King Saul and how he turned every so quickly away from David..all because the scripture says that he became jealous and angry because of David’s success..and he sought to kill him..I Samuel 18:5-28-29..Amen..so guys be careful with your life..and the things that you allow to take place in your heart and in your mind..because even if you don’t express it..it still is effecting you..and sooner or later..it as I say comes forth..and as they say blows up..or explodes..or reveals itself..and grows and is growing something on the inside of you..and I do pray that we are planting and growing goodness in our hearts and in our minds..Amen..for we know out from the abundance of our hearts our mouths speak..Matthew 12:34..Amen..so let us speak well..love well..and in turn live well..Amen..speaking..loving and living in unity..shining and sharing Jesus as we go along our way..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
