Interfacing with God


God understands we have weaknesses that's why he provides us with His GRACE to overcome them with the help of Holy Spirit. Ezra 9:8 Titus 2:11
God knows, while we work on our weaknesses with the help of Holy Spirit there may be disaster unexpected, that's why He provides us with His MERCY. Luke 1:50, Romans 9 :15
When we delay in overcoming our weaknesses God helps us by allowing TEMPTATION to speed up the process. James 1:12-14
When we meet God's expectation at the appropriate time God's FAITHFULNESS brings the REWARD .Psalm 119:90
When we declined after all avenues have been exhausted, God cannot help His JUDGEMENT. Exodus 34:7
Three basic steps to overcome
1. Obtain salvation John 3:3
2. Sustain salvation. Philippians 2:12
3. Fulfill divine purposes. Romans 8:28
God helps us.

Except Ye Repent


"Luke 13:4-6  Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
Luke 13:7-9  Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: 
And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down."
We are called to bear fruit. Hence, the phrase 'except ye repent' 
So then what are we to repent from: a fruitless life. What is then a fruitless life.
1. A life without salvation. John 3:3, John 3:16.
2. A life not in tune with divine purpose. Act 19:25, Act 26:16, Rom 8:28, Rom. 9:17, Ephesians 1:11, Timothy 1:19, 1 John 3:8
Remain blessed.
