THE SECRET FOR LONG LIFE ON EARTH!

The first commandment that God gave with a promise was ”HONOR your Father and your Mother.”   WHEN you Honor your parents, you will live a long and rich life.  It is but natural for children to honor their parents,  So why did GOD give us this commandment?  And why dose the bible  emphasize this commandment in Ephesians, Exodus and Deuteronomy?   LETS FIND OUT BELOW

 Ephesians 6:2-3 says  ”If you honor your father and mother, “things will go well for you, and you will have a long life on the earth.   EXODUS  20: 12, says “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.   THe bible says the same thing in Deuteronomy 5:16 “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
   Today there are many broken homes,  most children end up living with one parent and most often they have little or no contact with the other parent, thus they grow up despicing and hating the absentee parents.  Its the same with single mothers and teenage pregnacies, most often because the mom raises the child alone, she grows bitter with the father of the child and teaches the child to hate the father also.   There are also  children that grew up with very abusive parents.  Some fathers rape and abuse their own daughters, mothers  beat up their children with malice for any little fault or just for the fun of it. No wonder these children grow up, move away from home as fast as they can and live a life of hatred ,  most of it directed at their parents.
      IT IS very important to understand one thing here, This hatred and pain comes from the devil.  The bible says in John 10:10 that the devil comes  only to Steal, kill and destroy us.  The devil loves to steal our relationships, It gives him great joy to see friendships broken,  families broken, children hating parents, and brothers hating sisters.  Relationships are the backbone of society and life, nobody is an island and nobody can really live alone.  We become bitter and full of hatred when we are hurt or betrayed by our ”relations”

Forgive your parents and honor them, so that you may live a long , peaceful and prosperous life.  Release them  and free yourself from that bondage of hate. The bible didnt say honor your parents if they are good to you or love you, NO it said HONOR your Father  and Mother.  That means   respect and love them no matter what , so that your days maybe long on earth. Forgive them and loose yourself from the bondage of the devil.  IN JOHN 10:10, JESUS  said ” I come to give you abundant life”. Trust in Christ and  let him take away the wounds in your heart and fill you with His Love .

GOD BLESS YOU ALL

 

SELF HATRED AND BITTERNESS

 

Psalm 36:7

New King James Version (NKJV)

⁷ How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!
Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.

Maybe you were truamatised as a child, and you have grown up experiencing many failures. You hate yourself and blame yourself for all your failures, for the way you look and wish that you were somebody else?

WELL I have good news for you. God loves you dearly and made you in His own image. He says you are not a failure. Stop blaiming yourself and trust in GOD instead for HE loves you just the way you are and wants you to live a life of passion and power.

Deuteronomy 31:6 says ” be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them.( your troubles ) For the LORD your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you”. The bible says in 1 john 3:1 that God loves us so much that He has made us His Children just like Christ.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
