Tips To Win The Race To Heaven by PRINCESSO2: 7:26pm On Sep 21, 2015
Numbers 23:19-God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
John 17:17 ►- Sanctify them through your truth: your word is truth.
We know God word is true so lets START.

Hebrews 12:1-Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
SO,WE HAVE A RACE TO RUN.

1- Matthew 7 –7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?


FIRST ASK FOR THE GRACE TO RUN YOUR RACE TO THE END IN SUCCESS.

2- Show love to everyone.
1 John 4:8-He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
So,we need to show love to everyone.




3-Matthew 5:7-Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
B-Romans 9:16- So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
4-James 5:20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
-

5 In the old testament, Joshua 1:8 -This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

I believe us wasting time of immoral Television and sinful music, wild parties and any activity that does not bring glory to God is wrong.
Galatians 6 -7Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
Colossians 3:17-And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
1 Corinthians 10:31 -Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
James 1-
12Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to them that love him.
13Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. 16Do not err, my beloved brethren. 17Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from
the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. 18Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
what to do to resist temptation

YOU HAVE NOT YET RESISTED SIN TO BLEEDING YOUR FLESH
IF YOUR RIGHT HAND CAUSES YOU TO SIN,CUT IT OFF

What did Jesus do when he went into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil

He spoke the word of God.
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.


Yes,we need the word of God.The bible says-James 4:7-Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Christains-Hebrews 4:12-For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart

So if you feel like getting drunk ,or stealing or something-say God words-
1 Corinthians 6- 9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Another example is if you feel tempted with lust then say God words- But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:28
If you are tempted with hate- 1 John 3:15- Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
If you are tempted with unforgiveness say - Matthew 6- 14For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
If you are tempted with guilt say- Romans 8:1 ►-There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
If you are fearful say- 2 Timothy 1:7- For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
If you are tempted with anger- James 1:20 - For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

It will help you fight against temptation. Ephesians 6 - 10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in highplaces. 13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fi

Pray Continually
18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
John 17:17-Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth
God word is the truth.
