Nobody's Perfect



Philippians 3:12

"Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus."

Understand this people, nobody's perfect! Just because you decided to give your life over to God, doesn't mean you will suddenly walk away PEEFECT. Your imperfections, character flaws, and personality issues actually will be put on blast! 

I'm afraid the influx of social media attention we have experienced has caused perfection to book appearances everywhere. Don't let social media fool you. You know what else I found out, the ones who choose to limit what they share are the ones that seem perfect. And I'm one of them. I'm not perfect. I have panic attacks when I'm stressed. I throw tantrums when something don't seem right. I get depressed when I don't feel appreciated. I get depressed when I'm restless. Hell, I get depressed!

Keep pushing the RIGHT wrong buttons and you'll see the ugly vicious side of me. I hate being pegged wrong. I'm obsessive compulsive to an extent. I don't pray everyday. (Say whaaaat?) God is my everything but I don't mind talking about other things. Sometimes I don't feel like encouraging nobody. Matter of fact sometimes I don't feel like being bothered so I'll hide if I have to, to keep from explaining my antisocial behavior. I can curse like a sailor lol I often wonder if I'm bipolar. My therapist tried to talk me into taking drugs. DENIED! I stopped going to her because I felt I was smarter than her bwhaaaaaa!!! Yes I had a therapist. 

I struggle with self esteem every now and then. My confidence wanes from time to time. Typically if I change my profile pic to something other than my face it's a tell tale sign I'm experiencing some form of catharsis (emotional release) So yeah sheMEher ain't perfect KAPEESH?  

What am I sayng? NOBODY'S PERFECT! I mentioned this in my sermon back in September that perfect people don't fit into God's perfect will. You waste a huge amount of time trying fit your squares into circles by focusing your attention on superficial wordly perfection. God doesn't need your perfection. He needs your willingness to be exploited! Believers who are exploited by God are perfect vessells to win souls into the kingdom! My pastor reminded us that God doesn't want us to be perfect. He just doesn't want us to be FAKE! Once you get the concept in your head that NOBODY'S PEEFECT, stop looking at other people, and start looking at God, you are then a perfect candidate to be used for God's perfect will.

 1 Peter 5:10

 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.

The Effectual Fervent Prayer

I am convinced that there is no such thing as an unanswered prayer. I believe I’ve touched on this before in an earlier post. But I’ve received some new revelations to add to my case. 2 Corinthians 1:20 For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God. So does this mean that every prayer we send up, God says “Yes” to? Well, I must inform you, that it’s a little more complicated than that. Yet, it’s  not at all hard to understand. There is a three part transaction in this entire process. First we have OUR PRAYERS. Second, we have GOD’S PROMISES. Third, we have THE AMEN.” Yo, I’m so excited to explain this in full!  YOUR PRAYERS: The desires and issues of your heart are the language behind your prayers. Whatever interferences your heart experiences (that rhymes! Lol) determines the kind of prayer that you lift up to God. God will ALWAYS answer the prayer. Th...

Am I My Brother's Keeper?

According to Worldometers.com, there are 7 BILLION people in the world today. Did you read that? 7 BILLION! That’s an amazing figure if you ask me. It’s amazing because GOD took a few handfuls of dirt and breathed His own breath into a creature, a man, and He named him Adam. Then He pulled a rib from Adam and made another creature, a woman, and He named her Eve. From Adam and Eve came the FIRST OFFSPRINGS OF HUMANITY, Cain and Abel. After Cain KILLED Abel, Adam and Eve had more children and their children had children and so on, and so on and VOILA, 7 BILLION PEOPLE are on this Earth! But wait, let’s go back to that whole shebang about Cain killing Abel. How did this happen? The celebration of LIFE in the Garden of Eden had just begun and you mean to tell me somebody was killed ALREADY? You’ve got to be kidding me yo! Ya homeboy Cain got jealous of Abel basically because Abel received more favor from God. And it was not because God was showing any kind of favoritism either. ...

I'm Friends with the Monster

So, I just used up two posts blasting the immature behaviors of petty Christians, thought I would have used a third post but I'm being led to speak on this; our monsters. Not the monsters we've called the ghostbusters on, the monsters we have become FRIENDS WITH. I actually mentioned in a recent post that we create our own monsters and wonder why we can't sleep at night. Those are the ones we actually are friends with. You may ask, "Well how I can be friends with something that I am afraid of?"  Easy. We have issues. Some more than other but the problem arises when we decide to eat sleep and kick it with these issues, using the played out, "God is still working on me." Or "I'm under construction," excuses. Really? How long are we going to keep those scaffolds attached to us? How long will we keep putting off the stone-washing and the replacem...
