HOW TO EVALUATE YOURSELF pt 2

 HE RINGS WORSHIP CENTER.

PRESENTS: LET US HEAR THE CONCLUSION OF THE WHOLE MATTER:

SCRIPTURE. ECCLESIASTES 12:13, HOSEA 4:6, JAMES 1:5, PROVERB 4:1, EPHESIANS 1:18, LUKE 10:24 & MATTHEW 16:13 TO 15

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate our personal conduct within ourselves, to correct those possible errors we may have made and live with over the years. 

We continue from where we stop yesterday…..

LET US HEAR THE CONCLUSION OF THE 

WHOLE MATTER: looking at your personal disposition over the years, how will you rate yourself! successful or failure? This is all about taking responsibility in life. How would you rate yourself? Ok how will people out there rate you? Their ratings may not mean any challenges or value to you, but it is necessary for you to know and you must be aware of what people are saying concerning you. These will help you reposition and reprogram your life where necessary.

Jesus sat with his disciples in Matthew 16:13,15 KJV. When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? [15] He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? I said this is very necessary for the purpose of evaluation. 

You must consistently evaluate your personal conduct to know where to improve in your life. Jesus asked his disciple what people were saying concerning him. While they tried to answer him he asked how about you? What do you say about me? We must sit back and ask ourselves all these common questions so that you will not enter into the new year with this kind of old habit. 

Let us look at your eating habits, especially in public. Can you recommend that all of us copy your way of eating, especially your table manners? This is a behavior that is conventionally required while eating at a table with others in public.

some tips to observe while eating. Please take out time to google this on your own and learn more.

Many eat Junk food and all manner of rubbish year in year out. Please permit my use of words. I try to paint a picture of how bad it is when we eat and drink certain things into our system, which might bring satisfaction in the beginning, but very soon the results will show up, especially in our retirement age. When all manner of sicknesses come and make us spend our little savings yet it will not be enough for the Bible said in Proverbs 10:22 KJV. The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. So you must be careful with what you drink and eat, especially at what time you eat them. 

Many believers of Christ drink alcohol willfully and smoke without regard to their health. Well I will not stop you but caution you to study what you drink because in Nigeria today, many alcoholic beverages are highly chemical that can gradually destroy your liver and kidneys. But for smokers you have to advise yourself because cigarette makers warn that smokers are liable to die Young please talk to yourself. Let's move on.

How often do you DRINK WATER and what kind of WATER do you DRINK please Google more information about drinking water and Learn more.

Another area is OUR SLEEPING HABIT, this one is in two ways, if you don't sleep well you are liable to fall sick! It is recommended that we sleep up to 7 to 8 hours daily, especially using good sleeping devices. But be careful not to become too lazy in the name of wants. for the Bible said in Proverbs 6:10-11 KJV. Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: [11] So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. However you must be moderate in all that you do. Please Google more information on sleeping habits and learn.

Your ASSOCIATION is too important to you, who do you call your friends? Who are your friends? Now I want you to learn the difference between a friend and an acquaintance. in 1 Corinthians 15:33 KJV. The Bible said. Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. 

Years ago I and other friends went to visit a brother who had a very nonchalant attitude at home unknown to us. The father came up to see us and looked at us with a scone and said oh birds of the same feather flocks together. 

Instantly I got the message, now that is very straight and clear: the people you associate yourself with can determine your speed of success in life, the information that you get determines your reaction most often.

When you are in the midst of those who have value for academic pursuit, you will not be left behind, It must rub on you. When you meet with people who are doing drugs, certainly they are going to initiate you into it. Growing up as a young man, I got admitted to the University of Benin to study public administration. I was in the company of certain people, and one day one of them called me and said you are next, so I ask! next for what? He said I need to blend! I said you made a mistake because at my age I should not be thinking of blending at this time I should be thinking of better things so I separated myself from them. I like you to understand that your association determines a lot of things in your life.

Lastly, what you HEAR, what you SEE and how you REACT to ISSUES. Joel 2:13 KJV. The Bible said. And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

Many believers of Christ really need to work on their  mindset because we are too quick to react negatively to issues especially those that bothers on spouses, men of God, Christians etc. There are things you should not hear at all, get this straight into your mind. Most times whenever you are told things about another person, please allow them to defend themselves. 

I say this to couples: please show respect for your partner and ask questions in a polite manner and the respondent should reciprocate in like manner, don't build offense based on what they said about your spouse, your children, your stewards, your business partners etc. The scatarrer are seeking whom to scatter; don't let them enter your life. 

Please father's and mothers allow your children to manage themselves and pray fervently for them and do not take sides. Most people react to issues when they reach a conclusion for their spouse and build all manner of negative thoughts that are not necessary for a  mere THEY SAY THEY SAID. 

This is a lack of respect for your partner, lack of respect for your children and your stewards. When you love people and respect them you will want to hear them out. Use your hand to fix your life and your empire and generate the joy of life Nobody will help you manage  your life you are to help yourself. "Openness is the power to break the oath of secrecy"

God is taking you somewhere ahead of what you have not seen, very soon there are certain persons that should not be around you and there are certain persons that should come into your life. How you say things, react to things if you don't work on yourself, it will become an issue to you. And this is so because of what you give your ear to hear. If you are not careful many good things will pass you by. May this old man pack their load and leave you alone forever in Jesus' precious name.

May God give you a fresh spirit in a fresh mindset to help you determine your atmosphere. How you react to issues determine the level at which the enemy can predict you. Proverbs 15:1 KJV. A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.

LET US HEAR THE CONCLUSION OF THE WHOLE MATTER: fear God and do his will. Anger is the vehicle that carries people to hell, anger can cause destruction, anger is in the heart of a fool that is what the Bible says. so the conclusion of everything I have taught you this day is FEAR GOD AND KILL YOUR ANGER. The destructions that occurred as a result of anger for five minutes cannot be recover most time for life. Ecclesiastes 7:9 KJV. Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.

Having read with some level of satisfaction it will be appropriate for you to leave a comment below to help us know how to and where to improve to serve you better.

Shalom.
