The document discusses desires of the heart and obtaining them from God. It says we should allow God to direct our desires and change any that do not align with His will. To receive our heart's desires from God, we must delight in Him, commit our ways to Him, trust in Him, rest in Him, and wait patiently. Even if desires go unfulfilled, we should ask God to conform them to His will and not pursue them in our own strength. God understands honest mistakes and can bring good from bad situations.
“Being used by God
is not confined to pastors, preachers or teachers. Anybody can be an instrument
in God's hands.”
God can use anybody, believer or nonbeliever.
Mt 13:15 For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.'

The effect of the original sin on women greatest man
Women had to suffer so much because of the so-called Original Sin, she was also the reason for which God has sent his sole son to be crucified on the Cross.
1 Corinthians 3:18-21. God's wisdom vs man's wisdom. Belief in God, existence of sin, value of feelings, value of physical beauty, value of physical strength and power, value of wealth, parental responsibility,
Someone very wise has said, “You don;t know what you believe until you have to.” Few things tell us more about ourselves or about what we believe about God than tough times.
Everyone has or will face tough times. This message of timeless biblical truths will refresh our minds and hearts no matter where we are in life, especially if we are in a storm so dark and confusing that we feel somewhat helpless to rescue ourselves. If that is you, relax. Our Heavenly Father is already working to make that situation turn out for your good in some mysterious but wonderful way. This is what this message is all about.
Beth starts off the message with a real illustration of how good God is from her life last week!
Here is the audio of this message that the slides go with:

Molecular studies of cells are leading to discover the more complex structure and function of tissues, and how this intervenes in the pathophysiology of diseases. During years scientists have made a laborious job to understand the origin of diseases that in our society are being more prevalent than some decades ago, such as cancer and congenital malformations
Knowledge makes people arrogant. This concept seems to be completely different from the world’s thinking. If I learn more, then I should know the breadth of knowledge. I should be like a learned person, and I should be more humble. But why the Bible said so, if this is a truth that violates the rules of the world. In this chapter, let us carefully look for the truth of the Bible for detail analysis.
James 4:1-6. adulterers and adulteresses. Submit to God. Resist the devil. Draw near to God. Cleanse your hands. Purify your hearts. Lament and mourn. Humble yourself. Speak not evil of one another. Spiritual adultery. l
In this first lesson we examine the spirit that every Christian must have. To show things that commonly weigh us down in our spiritual walk. Both audio and slides can be found together at www.cmcoc.org

This lesson encourages us to have the Spirit of a Christian through examples that the Bible provides. It instructs us on the type of Spirit that a Christian should show in their every day lives and reassures us of the love of God, even when things are going bad.
Israel Doctrine Google Hangout 12/31/2014 The Cultural Precepts On How To Ove...Israel Doctrine
Psalm 34:11-14King James Version (KJV)
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
Scriptural examples of falling from grace
Looking at the classic "proof" text for the "once in grace always in grace" crowd: 1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
The Scriptures clearly tell us that the time will come when some Christians in the body of Christ will not endure sound doctrine. All of us ought to separate the precious from the vile, the truth from the error and sound doctrine from fables. We cannot delegate this responsibility to anybody else. To this end we have been freely given the written word of God that by the grace of God through faith in his name we might be lead into all truth through the Holy Spirit.
I hope this series of meditations will help the word of God renew your mind and that you will be ready for the appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ.
There is an emptiness of soul that reaches deeper than physical hunger. It can be present even when, from an outsider’s perspective, everything seems fine.
2. Psalms 37:1-8
1 Fret not yourself because of evildoers, neither
be you envious against the workers of iniquity.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the
grass, and wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shall you
dwell in the land, and truly you shall be fed.
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD: and he
shall give you the desires of your heart.
3. 5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust also in him; and
he shall bring it to pass.
6 And he shall bring forth your righteousness as the
light, and your judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not
yourself because of him who prospers in his
way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to
pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not yourself
in any wise to do evil.
4. I. Introduction
• The psalmist writes,“Delight yourself in
the LORD, and He will give you the desires
of your heart” (Ps. 37:4).
• But can we expect God to deliver whatever
we want, whenever we want it? The Lord
should be first in our hearts. And only
when our dreams align with the Father’s
plan for our lives does He fulfill them.
5. II. Our desires reveal who we are in the
following areas:
A. Character
A person with immoral desires lacks integrity. Dishonest
individuals want to take advantage of others by deceiving or
controlling them. Godly people long for what is righteous.
B. Self-esteem
Many people don’t feel worthy to ask the Lord for their heart’s
desires. But God wants us to approach His throne with boldness and
confidence
Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we
may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
C. Direction
Knowing our dreams gives us focus.
6. D. Purpose
Desires reveal what someone hopes to accomplish.
E. Thinking
Our conversation brings to light the content of our
thoughts. And what we think stems from our heart’s yearnings.
F. Knowledge of God
Our aspirations expose the state of our relationship with
Christ. Walking with Jesus changes our focus and outlook.
7. III. The Father warns us against
wrong cravings
• We should allow God to direct what our hearts seek—and
make changes if necessary. Sinful passions lead to
emptiness, pain, suffering, and disappointment. They can
result in devastation and even death. Wrong desires can
be:
A. Harmful
• Some longings, such as an obsession to become rich,
can destroy a person.
• 1 Tim 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation
and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts,
which drown men in destruction and perdition.
8. B. Worldly
• Believers are called to deny ungodliness and worldly passions
• Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to
all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we
should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
C. Corrupt
• Because of the fall, humans have impure desires.
• 2 Pet 2:10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of
uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, self-
willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
• Only by submitting to the Holy Spirit can we live righteously.
9. D. Fleshly
• 2 Pet 2:18 For when they speak great
swelling words of vanity, they allure
through the lusts of the flesh, through
much wantonness, those that were clean
escaped from them who live in error.
• warns us against carnal lusts.
10. IV. What principles lead to obtaining your
heart’s desires?
A. Delight yourselves in the LORD
• Ps 37:4 Delight yourself also in the LORD: and he shall give
you the desires of your heart.
• Christians should rejoice in God and desire to walk in
obedience. The Lord must have first place in your life before
you can claim the promise in this verse.
B. Commit your way to the LORD
• Ps 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust also in him; and
he shall bring it to pass.
• Allow God to change any aspect of your dream that is not His
will. Remember that when He doesn’t answer a prayer as you
wished, it’s for a reason.
11. C. Trust in Him (v. 5).
• Ps 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he
shall bring it to pass
• God is all-knowing, merciful, kind, and generous. You can trust
Him with your hopes and dreams.
D. Rest in Him (v. 7).
• Ps 37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not
yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the
man who brings wicked devices to pass.
• Resting in the Lord means trusting Him to answer prayers in His
timing or transform your dreams so they conform to His will.
12. E. Wait patiently for God (v. 7).
• Ps 37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him:
fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his
way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to
pass.
• Jesus waited three decades before beginning His three-
year ministry on earth. According to His example,
waiting is one of the key principles of Christian living.
13. V. What if your desires are never
fulfilled?
Perhaps the Father knew that fulfilling
the request wouldn’t be good for you. If the
Lord doesn’t respond affirmatively to your
prayers, ask Him to make your desires
conform to His will. Whatever you do, don’t
take matters into your own hands and go
after what you want. There is always a high
price to pay for rebelling against the Lord.
14. VI. God understands honest mistakes
• When a believer misinterprets the Spirit’s
guidance or receives bad advice from a friend, the
Lord looks at the heart. The Father may allow the
consequences of a poor choice to play out, but He
won’t shame His children for an honest mistake.
He can turn a bad situation into something good
• Rom 8:28 And we know that all things work
together for good to them that love God, to them
who are the called according to his purpose.
15. Conclusion
• Do your desires align with the Lord’s purpose and
plan for you?
He longs to give His followers abundant blessings
and fullness of joy.
• So allow your dreams to be conformed to the
Lord’s will, and follow His guidance faithfully.
That’s how to experience God’s best for your life.
