Here is a riddle that the devil and the secular world can not solve.
" The weakness of GOD is stronger than men and the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men" .
This divine truth written in the Holy Bible still to the present time confounds the world. and the devil because the world and the devil focus on and dwell in matters concerning men and not the things of GOD.
Matt 16:23 But He turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's.
Man's interest and God's interest are most often opposed to each other so what looks like defeat to men is in many cases victory with Jesus and what looks like a victory to men is often a failure in GOD. We can not obtain understanding of what makes a life victorious in Jesus without the intervention of the Holy Spirit. For many of you GOD's riddle is solved because the Holy Spirit intervened.
What we've learned - what appears to men as weakness and defeat in our life is manifesting GOD's strength (victory) and what appears as nonsense and stupidity to men regarding our renewed mind contains the transcendent wisdom of GOD.
1 Cor 2:9 but just as it is written,
"THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD,
AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN,
ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM."
1 Cor 2:10 For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
Eph 1:15 For this reason I too, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and your love for all the saints, Eph 1:16 do not cease giving thanks for you, while making mention of you in my prayers; Eph 1:17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him.

A message from yours truly to all Gospel of Prosperity preachers
A message from yours truly to all Gospel of Prosperity preachers. The Bible clearly predicts the fate of your defiled riches:
James 5:3 Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire...
Why the need to live such an exorbitant lifestyle, the mansions and fancy cars? It is because you are covetous and covetousness comes out of lust. If you think that you are going to take money from the vulnerable and hopeless to feed a spirit of excess and then go to heaven then you are a fool because you are going to hell.
Luke 12:15 And He said to them, Guard yourselves and keep free from all covetousness (the immoderate desire for wealth, the greedy longing to have more); for a man's life does not consist in and is not derived from possessing overflowing abundance or that which is over and above his needs.

Saying no to sin is possible
Saying no to sin is possible. In fact the remnant of GOD do not live a sinful lifestyle. Christians are often attacked with the argument that no one is perfect everybody sins. But this argument is misguided because we are talking about living a lifestyle without the propensity to sin and not perfection.
Excusing sin because we can not reach perfection is like telling a man why walk anymore since one day you slipped and fell. For the Christian sinning is the exception and not the rule but for sinners, sin rules.
1 John 3:6 No one who abides in Him [who lives and remains in communion with and in obedience to Him--deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] commits (practices) sin. No one who [habitually] sins has either seen or known Him [recognized, perceived, or understood Him, or has had an experiential acquaintance with Him]

In the end and when the tally is all added up, unquestionably we know that GOD is just.
Before you look down on the brother or sister in humble unfortunate circumstances please consider their status in Christ Jesus, because their status is elevated in Him. I have said this before but I will say it again that perhaps this is how our Lord levels the playing field.
This is one of my favorite scriptures;
James 2:5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and in their position as believers and to inherit the kingdom which He has promised to those who love Him?
Do not despise the poor in Christ because the poor in Christ are actually very rich.
To all the covetous people out there you have your reward and after this life you ain't got nothing coming.
Luke 16:25 But Abraham said, Child, remember that you in your lifetime fully received [what is due you in] comforts and delights, and Lazarus in like manner the discomforts and distresses; but now he
is comforted here and you are in anguish.
In the end and when the tally is all added up, unquestionably we know that GOD is just.
Is 49:4(b)......Yet surely the justice due to Me is with the LORD, And My reward with My God."

I find it amusing when someone tells me I can not force my religion on them
I find it amusing when someone tells me I can not force my religion on them. Why do I find this response amusing, because it is. It is like speeding doing 55 in a 25 MPH speed zone and you tell the police you can not force your speed limit laws on me.
Time for you to wake up, you are under our Governments laws and even more, you are under GOD's law. Next time you think there remains a choice while speeding or in obeying God reference this verse;
Ps 24:1 The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains,
The world, and those who dwell in it.
Guess what? God has already forced Himself on you. Obey Him or suffer the consequences.
- Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
