The Good Part - Part 5

But one thing is needful: and Mary has chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

- Luke 10:42

TGIF! I will be concluding the series "Things that matter: Chose the Good Part". Kindly visit www.thrivingwords.blogspot.com for the previous posts.

If attention to religion be omitted at "the proper time," it will always be omitted. If Mary had neglected to hear Jesus "then," she might never have heard him.

A brother rightly said this:

Believers most time lost their priorities to things that are 'not even considered secondary' by the Lord, rather, He called them 'addendum' (Matthew 6:33)"

When you are not where God wants you to be or doing what God want you to do, you have obviously chosen the wrong part.

As a believer, you should ask yourself, are you doing those things that matters? Yes you might be hard working, activities oriented like Martha but have relegated JEsus to the backseat. One thing I have come to realize is when we choose the wrong part, we exhaust our strength a lot. There is time for everything, plan your day, week, months even year. Set your priorities right, somethings matter than some.

Reading your bible matter more than reading newspaper. Your prayer life matter more, your service to God matters, you can be in the church and yet be involved in those things that doesn't matter.

Mary choose the good part. The Good Part are those things that matter. The Good Part is Jesus. Will you choose the Good Part? Will you choose Jesus?

Seek ye first the kingdom of God. That should be your priority; The Kingdom of God and HIs righteousness.

So I ask again, will you choose Jesus? Not partially choosing Him but choosing Him in all totality. It's all about Jesus.

Thank God it's Friday, I love Fridays 😊 , Good Morning to you and God bless you.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive. When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me

Lessons From the Sons of Sceva

....the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? - Acts 19:15 One funny incident that I read in the Bible is about the seven sons of Sceva that attempted to use the Name of Jesus to cast out demons. The demons replied them that He knows Jesus and Paul, but who are they? They were given the beating of their life. (Acts 19:11-16) Were they wrong in using the Name of Jesus? No. But truth is they don't know nor understand that Name. They only want to use it selfishly just to get the results that Paul was getting. They thought it was a rocket science. Many at times we believers are like that; We live in sin , we disobey God and when we need something, we want to perform miracles, do signs and wonders in the Name of Jesus which we really belittle or don't value. Someone once said during a plane turbulence, he saw unbelievers even shouting the name of Jesus. No wonder some folks suffered embarrassment like the sons of Sceva. When
