What Does It Mean to Repent of Our Sins?

 

What does it mean to repent of your sins?  When it comes to repenting, it is a complete turn by asking God to forgive you of everything that you have done wrong in your personal life.  Proverbs 28:13 says he that covers his sins shall not prosper: but whosoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy.  I had to confess of every single thing that I have done wrong in my life.  I told God that I am sorry for being a very disrespectful little boy growing up.  I have hurt my family members and friends with all of the wrong things that I have done as a child as well as an adult.  I had to learn how to also forgive others whenever they do something wrong to me.  I had to learn how to stop taking revenge on others when they do wrong to me.  I am very sorry for all thing both past and the present.

 




I want to inform everyone who is reading this blog that I have completely asked God to forgive me of all of my sins that I have committed even when I was a child.  I told God and Jesus Christ that I was very sorry for doing all of the wrong things to other people and to myself.  For instance, I have to forgive my family members and others whenever they use curse words towards me personally.  I have to learn how to learn from my past sins.

 I do not have any business getting sarcastic at my family members and friends. When it comes to petty things, I have to let them go.  My mother’s prayer to me as well as my siblings was “Lord, please build a fence so high that trouble cannot get over it, and so low trouble cannot get under it; in Jesus name I asked these things Amen”.



 I will not forget what my mother and grandmothers told me when I was a child.  They always told me to go home and pray for those people who have wronged you.  They also told me to pray for those people who have hurt me and disrespect me by all means. 

 I have learned a whole lot from everyone that I have been in contact with during the past 51 years.  Please continue to pray for me because it is the Lord who have saved me and the Lord who will take care of me.  I thank all of you who have supported me during the past few years while I was blogging.  Right now, I want to say that I love all of you to everyone who have shown me nothing but love from the very beginning.   I am very sorry to all of those that I have hurt in the past as well as the present.  Thanks for reading my blog.

 

Sincerely,

Have You Ever Wrestled with God

Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that the Man of God Wrestled with Jacob?        I have a very important question to ask everyone right now.  Have you ever wrestled with Satan in the same way that Jacob wrestled with the Man of God?  I am asking this question because I had a flashback recently.  It happened in 1974 when I got into a fist fight with a 15-year-old boy.  We got into a fist fight over a black fisted pick that people used to comb their hair.  I fought this boy because he threatened my manhood over something that he could have purchased for himself.               Next, I fought with this boy because he threatened me with violence.  I might have been younger, but that poor brother was limping after I got finished with him.  He got away on his bike.  I want to inform all of you that this boy was 6 years older than me.  I want to say that I might not have wre...

God is Watching All of US

    God is watching all of us!!   I know for myself that God has been watching me because He is solely responsible for waking me up this morning.  He watches me because I know that I am not able to get away with anything that I am doing wrong throughout my entire 60 years of existence. Next, I want to inform everyone that I have been a Born Again Christian for 10 years now.  I will admit that I have had my moments when I have acted out by using words that does not make sense.  Lord God, I am asking You; to please forgive me of all of my sins both past and present.  This also includes any sins that I am thinking about inside of my mind, as well as any besetting sins that I have presently. Good Afternoon Lord Jesus!!  How are you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I want to inform you that I am only a Work in Progress.  The reason why I am saying this is simply because I am not perfect.  I am asking you to please bridle my tongue; so t...

STEPS ARE ORDERED BY GOD

Steps ordered by God         Is it true that our steps are ordered by God?  This is a very good question.  The reason why I am asking this question is simply because I am curious.  The following Bible verses will be discussed: Jeremiah 10:23, Proverbs 20:24, Job 34:21, and Job 31:4.  First, I would like to emphasize that God does order our steps.  According to Jeremiah 10:23 says O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.  This means that it is a Power that is greater than ourselves that is actually helping us.  Second, in the Book of Proverbs in the 20 th  Chapter and the 24 th  verse which states that man’s goings are of the Lord, how can a man understand his own way?  This Bible verse is a little bit different.  A man’s goings are the steps that are ordered by God.  How can a man understand his own way?  This is a very good ...
