WORDSHARE: The fruitless tree!

Jesus had an encounter with a fruitless (fig) tree when He was hungry in Mark 11:12-14. He cursed the tree cos though it was so full of leaves yet it had no fruit to show for its lushness. 


But note this very important point: it was not the season for figs. So why would  Jesus curse it

I believe the Lord is pointing out to us a very very important life lesson about stewardship; as to the kind of tree He wants us to be - the kind of tree that bears fruit in season and out of season. Like the trees planted by the side of the water in Revelations 22:2. The Bible says they bear forth different fruit every month through out the year! 
  
   'On each side of the river grew a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each month. The leaves were used for medicine to heal the nations.'

As long as we are planted by the river of life, we must bear fruit in season and out of season because we are constantly supplied by the Divine; whether the time is right or not; in the good times and in the bad times. We don't take breaks. We keep working. We keep doing. 

God wants to use us year in, year out; constantly,every day, every minute. He wants us to be constant carriers of His love to other people around us. There is no retirement,no leave, no rest period or break periods in God's kingdom.
 
It's only work, work, work! And grace has been given to us to make it happen. 
 
So the question is: are you working? Or you're probably taking a nap? Don't waste the resources God is pumping into you. The fruit we bear is the proof of our discipleship.

Celebrities sell their souls to the devil for fame and fortune

It is said that most Hollywood celebrities, to get to where they are today, made a deal with the devil...they sold their souls for fame and fortune. By selling their souls they submit to Satan so that he totally uses, enslaves and possesses their life, body, mind, will and soul. Satan's goal and agenda becomes theirs. Their life is no more their own. So let it not surprise you when their songs or movies serve Satan's purpose of driving men into deeper darkness. These celebrities are idolized and literally worshiped but clearly they serve Satan and channel demonic spirits through their music and movies. From the likes of Madonna,Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Nicky Minaj ,Eminem, Bob Dylan and so so many others, these are known to be demon possessed having sold their souls to the devil. Melyssa Ford, a Canadian hip hop model and actress ,said in an interview, "If your ultimate goal is to be famous, you have to do a lot to get there like sign your name in blood i

Late Hollywood actress, Marilyn Monroe, told Billy Graham, "I don't need your Jesus."

She had the perfect life anyone could dream of; remarkable wealth and great fame. Despite all that, Marilyn kept all of her sufferings to herself. One day during filming, a preacher named Billy Graham visited her. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus". During that time, Monroe who was allegedly having a romantic affair with the President of the United States, John F Kennedy. A week later, she was found dead in her bedroom. Theories of her death started to spread. Some say she was assassinated because of political conspiracies and in the end, the most accepted theory up to this day is she committed suicide. It shows that she was suffering from a severe depression. In fact it is actually the right time for her to seek God, asking for help, not to take the easy way out by taking her own life. *Hmmm... One day soon I will write on Marily

See how music is used to cast spells...(A must read)

We love music, but do you know there could be more to music than we bargained for? The devil is desperate and we should not be ignorant of his devices and this is one of them. One weapon that he always uses is subtlety . Here's what I pulled from a Wiccan website concerning Magickal music or let me say how they cast spells in music: "A magick spell is the integration of an intent with a physical representation of that intent.  "For instance, when you make a Witch’s spell pouch, out of a cloth and some herbs and oils and objects, each of those items represents a part of your intent. And in the magick, you are binding those two things: your intention and the physical world. "This brings your intention into form in the physical world. That's how magick spells work. In magickal music, the intention is wrapped up into a song, and bound into it. "When I create magickal songs, I do it with the guidance of the Divine. In a meditative state
