Continuation

🚫Seven Things That Make a Squander** 🚫

3. The Spirit of Foolishness** 🤦‍♂️
- The beginning of foolishness is the denial of God. The Bible says, "A fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.'" (Psalm 14:1)
- Luke 12:15-20: Jesus warns about the folly of relying on material wealth and neglecting spiritual richness.
- A fool is someone who denies wisdom and correction from elders:
- Proverbs 1:7: "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."
- Proverbs 13:19: "A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but fools detest turning from evil."
- Proverbs 14:9: "Fools mock at making amends for sin, but goodwill is found among the upright."
- Proverbs 14:33: "Wisdom reposes in the heart of the discerning and even among fools she lets herself be known."
- Proverbs 15:5: "A fool spurns a parent’s discipline, but whoever heeds correction shows prudence."
- Proverbs 15:20: "A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish man despises his mother."
- **Proverbs 17:10**: "A rebuke impresses a discerning person more than a hundred lashes a fool."
- **Proverbs 17:16**: "Why should fools have money in hand to buy wisdom, when they are not able to understand it?"
- **Proverbs 19:3**: "A person’s own folly leads to their ruin, yet their heart rages against the Lord."
- **Proverbs 20:30**: "Blows and wounds scrub away evil, and beatings purge the inmost being."
- **Proverbs 28:26**: "Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe."
- **Proverbs 18:16**: "A gift opens the way and ushers the giver into the presence of the great."
- **Proverbs 13:20**: "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm."
- **Proverbs 10:18**: "Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips and spreads slander is a fool."

- He who lacks wisdom should ask for it, for anyone who walks in wisdom is safe.

*🌟 The Power of Words and Our Identity as Children of God 🌟*

In the beginning, God spoke creation into being. His words shaped reality, demonstrating the profound power of words (Genesis 1). As we are made in His image (Genesis 1:27), we too possess the ability to create and influence with our words.

The Bible reminds us that our words hold tremendous power. Proverbs 18:21 tells us that "The tongue has the power of life and death." Our words can bring life or destruction, hope or despair. We are called to speak truthfully and productively, for "The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life" (Proverbs 10:11).

God's promises are unchanging and trustworthy. As 2 Corinthians 1:20 assures us, "For no matter how many promises God has made, they are 'Yes' in Christ." We can rely on His Word and declare His promises over our lives with confidence.

Jesus taught us the significance of faith and the spoken word in Mark 11:22-24. When we speak in alignment with God's will, remarkable things happen. Let us declare His promises and trust in His faithfulness, knowing that our words, aligned with His truth, have the power to transform.

May the words we speak reflect our identity as children of God. Let us be mindful of our speech, using our words to build up, encourage, and bring life.

As Psalm 19:14 prays, "May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer."

Remember, life and death are in the power of the tongue. Let’s use this divine gift wisely and faithfully.

Blessings to you all!

🚫 **Seven Spirit's That Make a Squander** 🚫

1. **Greed** 💸
- "Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless." (Ecclesiastes 5:10)
- "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions." (Luke 12:15)
- "But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that." (1 Timothy 6:6-8)

2. **Belial** 😔
- In Hebrew, this is described as a spirit of worthlessness or valuelessness. This condition often leads individuals to become schemers, attempting to manipulate or deceive to gain value or escape their perceived valueless state.

Let's strive to live lives of contentment and purpose, recognizing our inherent value and steering clear of the pitfalls of greed and feelings of worthlessness. 🙏✨

To be continued next week... Stay tuned! 📅

Reflecting on the beautiful parable of the Prodigal Son this week. Let's cherish the gift of sonship and the boundless grace that accompanies it. Luke 15:11-31

🌟 Save the Date: Women's Conference on May 25th! 🌟

🎉 Join us for a day of empowerment, inspiration, and connection at our annual Women's Conference. Featuring dynamic speakers and powerful discussions, this event is not to be missed!

📅 Mark your calendars and invite your friends. Together, let's ignite our spirits and embrace our potential. See you there!

[IN CASE YOU MISSED IT]
Basic Concept Graduation 🎓

Bishop Elliot Borchardt
Galatians 4:6-7 speaks of us being adopted as sons through Christ, where we cry out "Abba, Father," indicating an intimate relationship with God. Meanwhile, John 3:6 emphasizes being born of the Spirit, signifying a spiritual rebirth and a new identity as children of God. Embracing this truth empowers us to live as heirs of God's promises, reflecting His love and character.

Embrace your destiny as sons of God, walking in freedom, love, and faith! Remember, as born of God, we're called to live without sin (1 John 3:9), to love one another (1 John 4:7-8), to believe in Christ and overcome (1 John 5:1), and to walk in truth (2 John 1:4). Let's live out our purpose with integrity, spreading love and kindness wherever we go! Together, let's embrace our true identity and live a life that reflects the goodness of our Father.

"

The Everlasting Father
based on Isaiah 9:6. Reflecting on God's love and adoption, let's remember the beautiful truth from Scripture:

"We declare to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ." - 1 John 1:3

"How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!" - 1 John 3:1

"Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God." - John 1:12-13

"He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will." - Ephesians 1:5

"Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father.'" - Galatians 4:6-7

"For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, 'Abba, Father.'" - Romans 8:14-15

Let's come together in worship and gratitude for the love of our Heavenly Father, who has graciously adopted us as His own. See you there! 🙏✨
