THE REASON I REFUSE A FOUNDATION OF LIES IN MY LIFE!!!

Hello guys,

This area is heavy on my heart because it involves my precious little girl who i love very much otherwise God wouldn't have put this in my heart.

So let me tell you a little story:i am born again!imagine that and i tell lies!okay don't imagine that.The truth is i have tested the water with "little white lies",for so long now that God told me its either i change now or never.

The reason i am writing this is to let you know how we cause our own souls to die and those of our children through lying.Generational curses are also involved but to be honest i don't know much about them,all i know is that once you start telling lies,it doesn't stop with you,its passed down to your children and so on.

When God told me now is the time to post this so that i can reach out to others who think they can get away with lying,i knew i had to do it,more so,for my daughter because of the poor foundation i have laid for her in the past.But that is going to change.I thank God for His great great mercies and grace upon my life.

TELLING A LIE IS THE WORST OFFENSE BECAUSE IT IS THE FOUNDATION OF ALL OTHER EVIL ACTS.

I will do a part 2 of this post concerning the story of David but for now i want you to understand the basics.

The sad part of me being a liar in my own life is that i thought i could get away with it.You know even if a human being doesn’t catch me,it doesn't mean God hasn’t seen.

EVERY SIN OR CRIME BEGINS WITH SOMEONE BELIEVING OR SPEAKING A LIE.EVEN IF THE LIE IS AS 'SIMPLE' AS "i can get what i want if i lie,"IT PAVES WAY THE WAY FOR EVIL.

Ask yourself how David ended up becoming an adulterer and a murderer?Like i said that is a story for another day.

FACT:GOD CANNOT BLESS YOU IF YOU GO AROUND LYING.YES TIME AND CHANCE HAPPENS TO US ALL BUT THERE ARE THOSE SPECIAL BLESSINGS THAT ONLY GOD CAN BRING INTO YOUR LIFE.

The question is:how bad do your want those blessings?not just normal blessings(remember we are living under the era of grace),i mean supernatural blessings that You know only God can give.

so like i said i have tested the waters of life with "white little lies",time and time again!

But now enough is enough.I am at that place in my christian walk:its either i live for God or for Satan,there is no in-between.i am tired of being Luke warm.aren't you?and i thought i was radical for God,you see i thought nothing could make me fall into temptation...i am hot for God!But unfortunately i was wrong!!

Satan lies to us.he makes us believe that with us lying,there comes many advantages.what he doesn't tell us,is the many complications that arise from this sinful act.

i don’t want my daughter to grow up thinking that she can get away with lying.nah-ah!NO!NO!

Our father in heaven wants a full confession from us and a repentant heart.Can you give Him that?He wants to see how sincere and humble we can be to admit that we are liars and we need His grace.

Think about it.

Guys,i have to wrap this up,there is will be a part 2 and part 3 of this post.But for now i have to do what God tells me to do.

i will be praying for you!

just a fun reminder:

In Christ You are accepted...Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

PRAISE PAUSE!

Psalm 119:164
i will praise You seven times a day because all Your regulations are just!

PRAYER TIME!
Everlasting father,we come before You today because Your word is true and pure.Thank You father because You have our best interests at heart!Thank You because we desire to be humble like You,we desire to be lowly like You.

Father You deserve all the glory and all the honor we can give.Father we are sorry for the times we have failed to glorify your Holy name!

Father remove in us ANYTHING that is prideful and is not of You in Jesus name.We do not want the world's glory,we want the kind of glory only You can give.Forgive us for failing to put You first in the things we pursue.Help us in our weaknesses and uplift us when we are feeling down in Jesus name,we do pray and fully believe.AMEN!!

MY STORY(PART 1)

For i can do all things through Christ who gives me strength(Philippians 4:13).

Hi guys,i have been meaning to share my story(testimony)for the longest time and how i came to know Christ as my savior.It has been nothing short of challenging because i started this blog last year but then i deleted all my previous posts because i felt there was a lot of self in them instead of Christ.God has been wanting me to do this for the longest time but i didn’t have the faith and courage to do it.But i thank God that now i have.

Let me introduce myself as a single young woman living for Christ.I am also celibate or rather refraining from any sexual relations until i get married.After i got saved and accepted God's call for my heart(which is totally sold out for Jesus) and for my life,things had to change,i had to change.

Before i got born again,i was very much sexually active,i am very conservative so i pray that God will give me courage to share my story with you.Okay after i got saved,one of the things God spoke to me about was sexual purity and to think that God has a sense of humor:i was pregnant at the time so i was like,'way to go Jesus!'Don't we all think God has perfect timing?

Well i couldn't help but question God:'why would You tell me to be sexually pure when i have already had sex?'That didn’t make sense to me then,it felt like a dream!i continued to question Him,'You waited for me to get pregnant for You to tell me this?'i just couldn't understand why He had not communicated with me before i even met my little boyfriend,so to say!Now i understand that God's ways are not my ways and His plans are not my plans.

FAST FORWARD:I have struggled to share my story with the world because i thought there was so much shame in it.i also questioned God about this:'why do You want me to share my life story?won't people laugh at me?'

But now i am learning there is glory in my story.Now let me share with you my broken pieces:i was that girl who would be with a guy because she was feeling lonely.And sometimes i do understand my reasons because i lost my dad at 12years old and my mom completely shut down emotionally,so i needed love and affection from somewhere.Anyhow,i couldn’t run to my mom so running to a man felt easier.i didn’t know Jesus personally at the time so i couldn’t run to someone i didn’t know.And please understand i am not blaming my mom for the choices i made in the past,i believe she did the best she could with what she had at that particular time.

Well i also struggled with my self-esteem and finding my identity.i felt lost so i searched for my identity in people.i wanted people to validate me and tell me i am good enough.

At the time,i didn't know through my sexual exploits that i was creating ungodly soul ties.i didn’t know that by me sleeping with my little boyfriend that we were becoming one.yes i had heard that per-marital sex is wrong but it just didn't ring a bell to me.it wasn’t part of my value system because i hadn’t defined what my values were exactly.i was still caving out my life path.

When i turned 19,i made a vow to myself that i was tired of being a virgin.i was tired of being the good girl.Every guy i met passed me off as good,well i didn’t know they were the problem,not i.So i concluded i am the problem and i needed to change to fit their(my friends)standards at the time.i did come off as passive.

i think for me,agreeing to have sex with my little boyfriend meant that he wouldn’t leave me at all.You see i didn’t know God was with me all the time,so i needed backup.

The reason i wrote this post is so that i can bring out the issue of shame.For a long time i have denied it to myself that i was that girl who sought validation from men through sexual confirmation.i just wanted to be wanted.don’t we all?its not bad to be wanted,the issue comes in when it becomes your god,now that becomes your idol.

i was just talking to my sister in Christ about this issue:we all want to feel loved,wanted and worth the trouble and when someone comes and gives you the opposite,you feel crushed.

Now that i know am a new creature,He has made all things new in my life,then i don’t have to worry about validation because now i live to please Him.

Now i am free!!!free in Christ!!!i am blessed and i also want to touch the lives of many women who still think they are unworthy,who still think they have to give their bodies up for a man to truly love them.i no longer say i am unworthy,even when someone makes me feel so,Jesus became unworthy on Calvary’s tree so that i can become worthy,so that i cannot stand condemned by anyone or myself.

That is why i keep going even when i want to give up,even when i feel i can't make it another day.i just want to motivate someone to be who God has called them to be.And it takes just one step of faith...to get where you want to be in life.

i want to wrap up this post guys because i have an assignment to finish.So please please please don't give up.Don't focus on what's against you,focus on what's for you,you will make it i believe.In case you would want to contact me,please put your email in the comment section.

i love you guys,God loves you more for sure!!!

WHY I DON'T LIVE MY LIFE WITH REGRET

Hi guys,first i want to tell you that this is going to be a short post.This area on regret has been heavy on my heart lately because i was sinking down into self-pity then the devil was trying to use my past experiences against me.Well let me explain more:

ever had an ex?ever wished that you never met a certain person in your life?or someone who you used to know?i guess we all have.

I was praying to God the other night,i was searching for answers and i felt like God doesn’t understand how i truly feel about this issue.

Well this is how He answered:Jacquelyn i allow people to enter your life for a reason and at times for a season,i also allow you to experience certain things for a reason.I was about to ask Him which reason but then He reminded me that only I(God) knows that reason.Maybe you are asking why?well,because He is God and you are not!so stop questioning him!

Guys we can't live our lives in regret.i think we are definitely above that.

At times we have to believe His word is true even when it doesn't feel true.The former will manifest physically in our lives.

Just take that first step of faith and ask God to help you not to live in regret but in thanksgiving.

Say this prayer out loud with me and believe in your heart:Everlasting father we come before You,we thank You because You have been so faithful,we lift Your holy name on high and we pray that You may help us not live in regret,we pray that You may help us to be thankful for the people in our lives today and even those that already left because it was in Your best interest for us for them not to stay.We give You thanks,we pray that You may guide us in all things.Holy-spirit lead us to forgive those who we haven't forgiven and to completely let go in Jesus name we pray and believe.Amen!
