False sense of well-being!

This is a very serious problem!
Usually when a person is suffering so much inside, lives in anxieties, fears, insecurities, looking for a scapegoat, and speaking of the “emotional faith”, their refuge is “doing for God” and begins to occupy herself with things to do, but does not solve the problem that is “inside”. And over time, begins to justify herself by what she does, “Oh … I pray, I participate in the events for young people, I go to church, I invited a person to attend the meeting, I am a faithful tither, I help people. etc. ”
But that pain, that problem, insists on staying inside of you. And time goes by, and for acting in a religious way you begin to be deceived by a sense of well being, for what you do and not for who you are and what you believe in!
My dear, we can only give what we have, and if you hide behind religious habits, you will be frustrated, but if you focus on your soul and never lose sight of the need of salvation, you will always be looking to solve your inner conflicts with God, and not in hiding them from God!
Note the words of the Lord Jesus:
“In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.”
(Matthew 23:28)
The Lord Jesus was talking to the Pharisees who fulfilled the laws, but their heart was far from Him!
It’s no use trying to prove to people that you are of God, for God knows and sees everything! Be sincere, expose your real condition and cry out for help!
” Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”
(James 4: 8)
God gives us the opportunity to start over! So take the opportunity and start to draw close to Him right now, and when He comes before you, you’ll have peace, certainty, strength, courage, and everything will be true in you and in your life!
God bless you all and until next week!

The best thing in life we can do is to face our inner battles and expose them. That way we have a great opportunity to be healed and be well with God. We don’t need to pretend that all is well for he can see our inside. It is of no use for us to please people then we end up losing our salvation.

A false sense of well being only will take a person around in circle or make a persons life stuck and that is why some time people say one step forward 10 back because because the ways of the flesh are burdensome and weighs the spiritual life down but those of the spirit the ways of God are light Jesus’s said my yoke is easy and my burden is light … He will never allow me to face anything that will destroy me. That’s why I must be sincere with God transparent because its only like this that i will be able to receive His helping and strengthening hand to lift me up. And for me to be free and open to receive His spirit.

It’s very important we analysis ourselves before God and see ways we can improve to become a better a person. To never give up and take actions on things that need to be changed

Taking care of our soul is like having a shower we must do this everyday to ensure our salvation until the end
To make sure that we fight the good fight and run the good race and make it until the end
It’s not an easy fight but it’s worth it
