Cornelius Bella @smilingpreacher.bsky.social · Jul 25

God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6).

The question isn’t whether God is willing to work in your life—it’s whether you’re willing to be worked on.

God’s kindness is not an endorsement of sin but a loving invitation to repentance. The Apostle Paul made this truth clear in Romans 2:4 (KJV):

“Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness…not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?”

Marriage is a divine covenant designed by God for a purpose far greater than physical intimacy. It is vital for believers to understand this truth and not reduce their spouse or the sacred union of marriage to mere sexual gratification.

Being led by the Holy Spirit is not optional—it’s a defining mark of a true child of God.
This leading doesn’t come from emotions, logic, or pressure—it flows primarily through your spirit-man.

That’s how sons of God live!

If you don’t respect standards, you either have nothing of value in your life… or you’re unknowingly driving value away.
