God is Wisdom, Power, Humbleness, Love, Truth, Life, and He wants to put
Himself into every person who accepts his Son as Lord and Savior.
But Pride our worse enemy, won’t let us do it! Why?
Because it tells us we are self sufficient and we do not need anybody’s favor!
And in order to accept Christ as our Savior, we have to fall at his feet, repent
of our sins, and humbly ask Him for forgiveness!
Repent of what??? I haven’t done anything wrong! All at the same time…
We proudly answer!
However, humbleness cannot be faked!
It comes to us when we truly feel in ourselves the necessity of God’s help!
When we feel emptiness inside of us! When tired of sinning we desperately
are seeking for Love! God’s Love!
Remember the story of Samson and Delilah?
God raced Samson to help his people! He had power!
The Power of God was in him!
But his pride made God to abandon him and without God he was weak.
In every Christian may be a Samson when we obey God!
God is all powerful all wise and ready to live in any person that forgetting
their pride humbly accept his Son Jesus Christ as their Savior! However:
In every Samson also, there is a Delilah (sin) ready to destroy him!
Our new life depends on our obedience to the Spirit of God in us!
Our obedience to God is our success!
Our disobedience, our doom!
When we obey sin, we turn our backs to God!
And this gives “Delilah” the pair of scissors she needs to get rid of our
“hair” that makes us to loose our Power!
The Power of God in us!
God wants to guide us to a better life, but our pride covers our ears and…
We cannot hear what He is telling us!
Pride makes us to think in ourselves alone!
Humbleness makes us to think in others!
Do you want to know a humble man?
Read the Bible and know Jesus!
GOD IS LOVE! RECEIVE LOVE!
LIVE WITH LOVE! DIE IN LOVE!
Humbleness is something that when we think we have it…
Flees away from us!
When we learn to shut up our pride…
We will hear Humbleness to speak!
PRAISE THE LORD!

"THE GREAT COMMANDMENT"
Master: Which is the great Commandment of the Law?
Jesus answered: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all
your soul, and with all your mind.”
This is the first and great Commandment. And the second is just like it:
“Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” On these two Commandments,
hang all the Law and the Prophets. Mathew 22. 36 to 40.
The first one requires all we are! Our whole being!
A complete heart, mind and soul, not a divided one!
The second one, it’s to share with others the love we feel for ourselves!
I don’t understand!
All right! Look: GOD IS A JEALOUS GOD!
“You should not have other gods before me” You should not make for you
any image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is in
earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you should not bow
down yourself to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord your God
Am a jealous God. Exodus 20:3 to 5.
As you can see, God does not want to share your love with any other “gods”.
I still don’t understand! All right, do you believe the Bible is the Truth?
Yes! I do!
Then, let me to ask you another question: Who are greater, saints or angels?
I believe angels, why?
Listen: Saint Paul in Revelation said:
And I fell at the feet of the angel to worship him and he said to me:
Don’t do it! I am your fellow servant and your brethren that have the
Testimony of Jesus, worship God: Revelation 19:10.
What do you think Saint Peter along with all the Virgins and Saints would
say if they see you on your knees trying to worship them? Of course!
The same as the angel: Don’t do it! Worship God!
Listen:
Satan tempting Jesus took Him to a high mountain and told Him:
If you fall down and worship me, I will give you all these kingdoms!
And Jesus answered to him: Get out of here Satan, because it is written:
You should worship the Lord your God and only Him you should serve.
Mathew 4 : 8 to 10.
While Jesus was preaching a woman in the crowd shouted out:
“Blessed be the womb that bared thee and the breasts you sucked.”
But Jesus said: Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God
and keep it! Luke 11: 27 and 28.
PRAISE THE LORD!

"YOUR FAITH HAS SAVED YOU"
A Pharisee invited Jesus for a dinner at his home.
They were eating when a woman from the streets, a prostitute,
when she realized that Jesus was there, very shyly entered that house and
with a flask of perfume in her hands, she knelt behind Him at His feet
and started crying until His feet were wet with her tears; and she wiped
them off with her hair and kissed them pouring her perfume on them.
When the Pharisee saw what was going on, he said to himself: If Jesus
were a prophet, He would had known what kind of a woman she really is.
Jesus knew what he was thinking and told him: Simon:
Tell me Teacher he answered.
And Jesus said: A man loaned money to two people, five thousand to one,
and five hundred to the other, no one could pay him back, and being
merciful he forgave their debts to both of them.
To your understanding: Who do you think will love him more after that?
I suppose the one who owed him the most Simon answered.
Yes! You judged correctly Simon, Jesus answered, see this woman?
When I came to your house you did not gave water to wash my feet.
But she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
You did not great me with a kiss, but she has not ceased to kiss them.
You did not anointed me with oil as we usually do, but she has covered
my feet with an expensive perfume.
She loves me much because her sins that were many were forgiven,
But one who is forgiven little, little loves.
And He said to her:
Your sins are forgiven.
Then the men at the table said to themselves:
Who this man thinks He is forgiving sins?
And Jesus said to the woman:
Go in peace!
Your faith has saved you!
Luke 8: 36 to 50.
PRAISE THE LORD!

"THE DEVILS AND THE ANGELS 2"
A pitcher from the baseball team “The devils” tired of living in sin,
was claiming to Jesus the Manager of the Angels team for help.
Please Jesus help me he said, I want to work for you! I know
you died to pay the penalty of the sins of anybody who ask you.
I will bury my past and begin a new life with you helping people!
The Manager of the Angel’s team, grab his telephone and called the
Devils team manager asking for the price of that particular pitcher,
Oh no, said the devil, his price is very high!
It does not matter Jesus said, I want him!
He is asking for my help and I died to pay for his rescue!
LET HIM GO!
They negotiated and a new pitcher was acquired for the Angels team!
The new pitcher very humble fell on his knees to Jesus and said:
Thank You! I am very grateful with you!
From this very moment on, I am going to forget everything related
with my past and begin a new life serving You!
Very good Jesus said, I want you to know that in this team we have
Rules to obey, check them out and if you don’t like them you could
go back to your former team!
No please! I want to serve you!
I am tired of hating people, now I want to help them!
Very well, Jesus said!
Let’s beat the devils and after the season we will have a nice vacation
that it will last forever in Paradise!
The devil was asking their team how in the world this person knew
about Jesus, and one of them said : We found a Bible in his locker!
Get rid of it!
We cannot afford to loose another member of our team!
In the mean time, all the players of the Angel’s team were praying:
Thank You Jesus!
For dying on the cross to save us!
All of us play in one or the other team!
Is Jesus your Manager?
PRAISE THE LORD!
AND YOU… IN WHICH TEAM ARE YOU PLAYING???
