“It tells us in 1 Thessalonians for us to rejoice..tells us to pray..tells us to give thanks in all things..and then it reads this..quench not the spirit..1 Thessalonians 5:16-19..Amen..and quench means to extinguish..to put out..to smother..to dampen..Amen..but I think of this..and the spirit of God lives inside of us..and with Gods spirit living in us..it changes the way we do things if we think about that in that aspect..that God sent His spirit to be our comforter and to dwell with us..John 14:26-31..so when God says quench not the spirit..Amen..then it is saying to us to not put it out the spirit of God that is in us..in other words don’t dampen the fire of God that is in you..and we dampen it by what we let live on the inside of us..all for the fact of what we choose to not deal with..and by what we are putting in us..Amen..we dampen and smother the spirit of the living God that is in us..and His spirit is there to quicken us..it is there for the anointing to be present in our lives..Amen..have you ever noticed that if we look into the eyes of people at how much you can see?..Amen..because the eyes speak as to nothing else can..the eyes are the light house into a soul of a person..Amen..but it then goes further on to saying to holdfast to what is good..and to abstain from all appearance of evil..1 Thessalonians 5:21-22..Amen..and what does appearance mean?..well that means our presence..our dress..look..manner..our attitude and demeanor..Amen..so in all of these things God is telling us to abstain from all appearance of evil..Amen..and in all of them ways..Amen..so we are to pray..give thanks..quench not the spirit of God living in us..we are to holdfast to what is good..Amen..and we all know what is good..Amen..and then we are to abstain from all appearance of evil..and again that is our presence..our manner..our attitude..our look..our demeanor..Amen!”

“So all of that in all of everything is pretty much everything..Amen..and why?..because it keeps us with the fire and flame of God in us..Amen..we are staying in step with the Lord..and what He desires..Amen..and we are having a great day by doing so..and we are and we will live our best life by doing so..but when we don’t do these things..everything truly dampens down in our lives..and we all know when this happens..our spirit man gets crushed..we feel it on the inside..when we are quenching the spirit of God that again is living on the inside of us..so again its like taking two steps back instead of taking two steps ahead..and we are to be redeeming the time..because the word says that the days are evil..Ephesians 5:16..Amen..so it is no joke how we choose to live..what we choose to do..how we choose to respond..because it effects us in who we are..and where we go in life and how fast we get there..Amen..because obedience to Christ and His word brings forth everything great to us and our lives..in turn helps us to be a blessing to others and their lives..Amen..so again everything we choose to do daily matters and matters greatly..Amen..because not only it effects us and our spirit man..but as well others in whom are around us..Amen..so this morning I do pray we all look over our lives..at how we are choosing to live them..and at how we are representing God and His spirit that is living inside of us..Amen..so let us all abstain from evil..and all appearance of it..and let us rejoice..let us pray..Amen..and let us give thanks in all things..and to always be mindful not to quench the spirit of God that is living in us..let us be made right on the inside..so we can live a life well lived on the outside..Amen..let us help ourselves by helping ourselves..Amen..and we do that again by being obedient to God and His will and His commands..and His way that He has given for us to be living..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 ❤
