DON'T BE SURPRISED!

I'm not surprised by anything ppl do!  Because you should never put your trust in mankind!  Your trust should always be in the Lord!  But even when they do you wrong you still have to love them,  pray for them and if the occasion arise  you may even have to bless them!  That's what Jesus Christ is all about!  When they came for Jesus Peter cut the centurion soldier ear off, and what did Jesus do he healed it and put it right back on.  So in our flesh, no good thing can come when we operate in the flesh!  That's why we must read God's Word and be lead by His Spirit!  Now I know the world operate in a different code! You do me and I'm going to do you!  But when your for real about your walk with Christ and you no your flesh is quick tempered then you really need to mediate on the Word of God and crucify your flesh with prayer!  You have to learn how to tame your flesh!  So that it comes under subjection to the Spirit that lives inside of you which should be the Holy Spirit!  Notice I said should! You know there are things you struggle in then you must seek God for deliverance. But you can't go to God half stepping Because He knows if your heart is ready or not!  So just be real with God!  He knows everything about you anyway!  Don't be trying to act like you got it all together when you know you still cussing like a soldier,  lying like a rug, drinking like a fish, and smoking like value chimney!  No He sees all that you do,  I don't know why ppl think God turn His head when it conch to their mess!  No He sees and If you don't get it right He's going to spew you out of His mouth. You no the scripture!
So don't put your trust in man, not even in your Pastor! Make sure what they are preaching is in the bible!  I learned from experience that some preachers didn't know the Word like they were preaching it and I found that out by researching the bible myself!  Don't except what ppl say about other ppl, because liars come in all forms nowadays!  Test every spirit by the Spirit!  But until you develop your own relationship with Christ, Don't be surprised by what folks do,  who the devil uses and what situation occur!  I'm learning as I move forward and the higher Good is calling me,  that I still have to be on my toes so to speak!  Meaning I have to be so alert! Spiritual and naturally!  So that you won't be moved by what you hear or what you see!  But you will stand steadfast,  unmovable, always abiding in the Word of God!
Be Blessed! I love you!
