The document discusses four reasons why people should wait on God: 1) God is faithful as shown in Isaiah 30:18 and Psalm 27:13-14. 2) People make hasty decisions when they don't wait. 3) God is preparing them for what's ahead as Psalm 40:1-4 illustrates. 4) God's timing is different than humans' as Psalm 31:14-15 notes that one's times are in God's hands. To avoid the mistake of not waiting on God, the document recommends trusting God, listening, remembering past examples, and praying.

Gracious Jesus 12 Lust and Immorality
The document discusses Jesus' teachings on lust, immorality, and divorce. It addresses how desire turns to sin if not kept in check, and how to "disassociate" from sinful circumstances through figuratively "cutting off" offending parts. Jesus forbids divorce except in cases of adultery or pre-marital fornication, establishing marriage as a lifelong commitment. For those unable to receive this teaching, dedicating oneself to celibacy for the sake of the Kingdom is recommended.

Though he faced consequences like the sword in his household, David remained faithful to God and was eventually restored as the ruler of Israel.

Jesus explains that how one hears the word determines the outcome, emphasizing the need to take it seriously and allow it to transform one's life for God's purposes.

Looking into yourself 6-7
The story is about a stone cutter who was dissatisfied with his life and position. He envied a merchant, then an official, then the sun, cloud, wind, and rock - wishing he could be each of them. Each time he became that entity, he still found no satisfaction and envied something more powerful. Finally, he became the rock, but then saw a stone cutter chipping away at him with a hammer.

It concludes that if we truly trust in God's power and faithfulness, we will wait for His justice and mercy while hoping in His salvation and waiting for Jesus.

The document discusses donations being made to charitable causes in Haiti, Rwanda, and Peru. It also references several Bible passages about having faith in God, letting God's power work through you, and the importance of love and obedience. The overall message is that by trusting in God and letting His power and love flow through us, we can accomplish more for His purposes.
Recognising God's Voice
God speaks to His people in many ways, including audibly, through visions, dreams, angels, circumstances, and the conviction of our conscience. However, the primary way God guides us is through studying and meditating on His Word, the Bible. It is important to discern God's voice from other influences and not be deceived. We should seek guidance from dedicated Christians and apply the principles of Scripture to our lives daily.
Provision Webinar: How God Provides
In this presentation we look at the Role of prayer, repentance, giving, wisdom, blessing and thankfulness in provision.
Redeem your time
1) Time is a gift from God that we will have to account for. The average person lives 70 years with 408,800 hours of awake time, yet most Christians only spend around 8 days per year in religious activities.
2) We will be judged based on how we use our time on Earth. At the judgment, unbelievers will be cast into hell while believers will have their works judged to receive rewards or loss.
3) God can trust those who are faithful with small amounts of time to also be faithful with greater responsibilities. Being a good steward of time on Earth affects one's eternity.
June 28.2015 -Sunday Message- FACING YOUR FEARS
This document discusses building strong faith in God to receive miracles. It provides passages from Romans and Matthew about faith coming from hearing God's word. Several Sunday messages are summarized that discuss expecting the best from God, imagining what God can do, taking initiative in faith, and facing fears. It then outlines 5 principles for overcoming fears: get the facts, know the truths, evaluate situations, make faith declarations, and actively apply God's word. Having faith requires hearing God's word and putting it into practice.

Honor
Bob Goff said, "We will never honor Christ if we forget how to honor one another!" We should certainly understand our need to honor and reverence God but the New Testament shows an honor and reverence between brothers and sisters in Christ. It was the Golden Rule on steroids! "Do unto others as you would have them do to you" was the foundation of all their relationships with one another. How do we get that back into the church today?
The real message of philemon
What is the real message of this little one chapter book? it is the story of forgiveness - Philemon had to forgive Philemon to receive him back. it is a story of reconciliation - restoring a relationship that had been lost. And it is a story of a changed relationship - from slave to brother; from master to brother!
Why giving is important
Giving is important for several reasons according to the document: it makes us more like God by imitating His generous nature, it draws us closer to God spiritually, it strengthens our faith in God's provision, and it is an investment in eternal rewards. Giving also reveals our level of spiritual maturity in following Christ's example of sacrificial giving.
Paul's way of reaching philemon
The "little" book of Philemon is "huge" in teaching! When Paul wrote to Philemon he had an important message to send but he needed a way to reach a man like Philemon. In this message we dissect Paul's way of reaching Philemon with the truth of forgiveness, reconciliation and changed relationships.
Little red hen
Have you heard the fairy tale of the "Little Red Hen?" In this tale, the hen seeks help to being food to the barnyard but none of her friends will help. She goes out alone and finds the wheat, plants it, tends to it, cuts it, has it milled and bakes the cake. After the cake is made, everyone wants a piece but she says no! Is this how God treats us?
A time of giving
Giving is how we show gratitude for all that God has given to us. Giving is probably the greatest shortfall in the average Christian's life, especially here in the United States. The principles of giving are simple to understand, difficult to carry out because of our lack of faith and our greed. We are to give as we have prospered, as we have purposed and cheerfully.
Nehemiah rebuilds the wall
The document summarizes portions of the book of Nehemiah, beginning with Nehemiah hearing a report that the walls of Jerusalem were broken down and the city was in distress. Nehemiah wept and prayed to God about this. He received permission from the king to go rebuild Jerusalem. Nehemiah rallied the people to rebuild the walls, which they completed in just 52 days despite opposition. The document then lists some lessons from Nehemiah, including having a vision to accomplish good, enlisting help from all, and that the people had a mind to work.
Philippians 4 challenge
The passage encourages unity, joy, gentleness, and prayer. It urges the reader to imitate Paul and focus on things true, honorable, and commendable. It promises God's peace for those who bring requests to Him without anxiety through prayer and thanksgiving.
Hezekiah spiritual renewal
Among all the kings of Judah and Israel, there were very few who "did what was right." Hezekiah was one of the good kings! Even though his father was evil, Hezekiah ushered in a period of spiritual renewal. Every renewal or awakening begins with one person and it is without regard to their ancestry. Every renewal begins with a return to God's word and has an effect on generations to come. Are you the one to begin our next "spiritual awakening?"
Ready when called upon
When the teacher called on you, were you ready? When we are called upon in the Kingdom of God, we should be ready. We should always be ready to meet God on His terms; We should always be ready to give an answer for the hope that lies within us; and we should always be ready for the Lord's return.
Prosperity
How do we define prosperity? It depends on whether we are defining according to God's word or the world's ideas. There is a worldly prosperity and there is a spiritual prosperity. What produces spiritual prosperity? Meditating on and obeying God's word; faith in God and His word; being content with Godliness and what He has given us. What is the value of spiritual prosperity? It abides and produces true success.
Putting on the new man
When we become Christ followers the old man is destroyed and the new man begins to emerge. In Ephesians 4:22-32 Paul describes this new nature: no lying, no sinful anger, no stealing, no corrupt words, no grieving the Holy Spirit, no bitterness and wrath but rather a kindness toward one another. Is the New Man showing in you?
Roads to heaven
The document discusses different "roads" or paths that Christians may take, including roads of persecution, poverty, suffering, and loss. It notes that Jesus said he is the only way to God and salvation. Several passages from the book of John are presented, including Jesus telling Peter to follow him. The document emphasizes that individuals should not compare their road to others' but trust that God puts them where they need to be, and the most important thing is to follow Jesus, regardless of one's circumstances.
First love
Jesus' letters to the seven churches in Asia are a roadmap for struggles in the 21st Century church. To the church in Ephesus He had one thing against them: They had left their "first love." What does this mean? Why is love so important? What might have happened to their "first love?" and what is Jesus' exhortation to that church?
Blessed are those who mourn
Mourning is an indescribable ache to the heart. Mourning is a great time to learn God's compassion because He hurts when we hurt; God's faithfulness because He will never leave us; God's comfort because He yearns to comfort us.
What stands in your way
What is stopping you from giving yourself entirely to God? For some it is the pursuit of wealth. For others, it may be the pursuit of pleasure. Still others may be fearful of what others will think and say while others just want to be in control of their own lives. Whatever stands in your way of giving yourself completely to God, remove it!
Christ the only foundation
This passage from 1 Corinthians discusses the proper foundation for faith and spiritual growth. Paul explains that some in the Corinthian church were still immature and divisive, arguing over whether they followed Paul or Apollos. However, Paul and Apollos are merely ministers who planted and watered the seeds of faith; ultimately, God causes the growth. The only sure foundation is Jesus Christ. All other foundations built on human works, righteousness, or traditions will fail. Believers should build on Christ alone through faith, not on their own goodness or spiritual accomplishments.
Surrender #2
2nd in a 2-part series. Surrendering ourselves to God, giving up control and letting God do what God does. In part 2 we are encouraged to T.R.U.S.T. (totaling relying upon something true) God and to realize that God has set us free in Christ Jesus.
God's workmen
Paul to told Timothy to "Study to show yourself approved by God, a workman doesn't need to be ashamed handling the word of God correctly." Aren't we all supposed to be workers in the Kingdom, workers of God? What are the characteristics of God's workmen? They don't spend time arguing, they seek God's approval and they avoid error.
Surrender #1 (1)
Life in 2018 is chaotic and stressful, especially for teenagers. How do we cope? Anxiety is real, anxiety and panic attacks are real and can be debilitating. How do we overcome? First we have to realize we are not in control! But God is! When we become anxious and fearful: stop. breathe. Jesus! Love is > fear!

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.

Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
The pervasiveness of Lying in today's World.pptx
In our interconnected world, lies weave through the fabric of society like hidden threads. We encounter them in politics, media, personal relationships, and even within ourselves. The prevalence of deception raises profound questions about truth, trust, and the human condition.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).
