Faith and Trust

Faith and trust work together, many times to believe only is not enough to conquer what you need the most, many people give up on their dreams because they are not able to persevere until they materialize what they dream of. Not everything that we want comes to us in the day and time we want, it's necessary to trust to go all the way until we see our victory.

I Can Make It

One of the most important thing in a person's life is exactly the power of making decisions, we were born bringing this power inside of us but unfortunately many don't use it as they should, they rather allow others to use it on their behalves and they suffer chaotic consequences in life. There's no one better than yourself to make your own decisions, every time you depend on someone else for you to do what you are supposed to do it doesn't come out in the it should. Therefore, make sure you decide whatever you have to do by using your abilities and your faith then, you will be able to say, I can make it. But if you always depend on others you will never win.

The Apollo Theater has always been a place where many famous singers began their carriers, James Brown, Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin and many more, this list can be much bigger than that but this last Sunday, September 30th, everything was completely different of what usually happens there because there wasn't just one famous singer but over 1500 people singing all together and praising the God Almighty, it was simply amazing and awesome, unforgettable and remarkable proving that when we set in our hearts and in our mind to do something by faith we definitely do that and that's what happened Sunday, the Godllywood Concert was one of many that without a doubt will come soon.

I'll post more pictures soon.

Influence |ˈinfloŏəns - the capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behavior of someone or something, or the effect itself

The definition of influence is what many should be careful about you probably have already lost many valuable things in life simply because you were easily influenced by something or someone who at first approached you with convinced reasons that sounded good in your ears but in the end brought you painful and endless frustration, therefore be yourself and don't let what others say or show you to change one of the most important thing you have, your character, what is good for them doesn't mean it's good for you. Watch out!!

Faith and religion

 

Faith and religion do not mix.
They do not mix when you’re dealing with supernatural faith.
Like the heavens are higher than the Earth, so is supernatural faith when compared to religion.
But when it comes to natural faith, faith walks hand-in-hand with religion.
When an atheist ignores faith, in reality, and without realizing it, he’s ignoring supernatural faith.
In his case, it makes sense.
But when it comes to natural faith, everyone has it, even the most sceptical.
It is impossible to live without it; it comes from the cradle.
Who would work when there’s no certainty of being paid?
Who would sow when there’s no certainty of reaping fruit?
Who would study when there’s no certainty of a better future?
This certainty is natural faith, which is built-in to human nature.
Religion considers natural faith an easy sell and takes advantage of it.
This is why thousands of religions exist in the world, millions of gods and billions of religious people.
And the worst part is that no one understands anyone else.
If they belonged to God, they would not cause division or promote prejudice.
In contrast to natural faith, which comes from the cradle, supernatural faith comes from on High.
It is God's gift to the poor in spirit.
It is infinitely superior to natural faith.
It is the single direct channel to God, without middlemen.
Similar to a School of Faith, the UCKG teaches this kind of faith...
That engenders a close relationship between created and Creator, one that does away with middlemen;
That causes the dreams of those who have it to materialize;
That turns the cruel, and the most harmful to society, into good individuals;
That heals the physical and spiritual wounds of those who believe;
That "gives power to the weak, and increases the strength of those who have no might" Isaiah 40.29…
That fosters a life that’s different from unbelievers.
Supernatural faith frees people from religious burdens, half-truths and everything else that stifles our ability to reason and make the best choice.
It delivers from the deceptions of the heart, from empty, self-centered feelings that enslave the human mind.
Finally, supernatural faith restores the image and likeness of the Almighty, since the Spirit of Creation operates through it.
"So you will again see the difference between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him."  Malachi 3.18 (HCSB)

"It is honorable for a man to stop striving, since any fool can start a quarrel." Prov.20.3
