      Competition and the Christian
      In Gods Bible in the book of Galatians chapter 5 verses 19-21 it reads, Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,21 Envying's, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. The above scripture mentions variance , emulation, wrath and strife, God also hates pride. These attributes are present in competition and are fruits of sin. Firstly the sin of Variance is defined as contention or strife which I believe is caused by disagreements mainly when things don't go how one team wants it to go, we often see players fight against other teams, some even resort to cheating which is also unfair and is an unrighteous practice, this in turn leads to rivalry which involves both teams having some form of strife between them. Also the sin of Variance is very common in competitive sports. Now there is nothing wrong in doing bodily exercise as bodily exercise is good for the body. But the problem is with competitive Sports. Secondly the sin of Emulations is defined as trying to become equal or to rise above another , this sin is also a common practice in competitive Sports, even Satan when he rebelled against God had said that he would rise above God and be like God. Isaiah 14-13-14 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. When one sport player competes, he or she is always trying to rise above the opponent to become the best, this is what God hates as Satan had the same mentality in that he told himself he would become like the most high and rise above him, this is the sin of emulation. Today many who compete in sport try to boost their self esteem by making themselves become the best, thus, because of pride they want to become like the most high in their field of Sport so that everyone would revere then and treat them like a God which is also the sin of idolatry and covetousness. The Scripture I quoted above also mentioned wrath and strife and we all know that these are also the fruits of sports.Sports is also involved with money making for greed. One doesn't need to become part of competitive sports in order to come out of poverty in the same way one doesn't need to become a prostitute to get out of poverty. God can provide for us and our needs no matter the circumstance without us having to join in the sin. Another excuse some use to justify sports is that it helps to unite and it helps take away depression and it brings peace. But this I say is only a false way to bring peace because usually as the game is over we go back to fighting one another and we go back to the sin of drunkedness and then war and depression starts again because the foundation was built on sand rather than on the Rock. If you want to be truly free you must build on the Rock Jesus Christ rather than on the sand, ask Jesus to free you from depression, strife and fighting and he will, you don't need to join in the sin of competitive sport to get a false relief from depression.
      Ask God for the endurance to overcome the temptation to watch competitive sport. Many wonder why following sports is wrong, of the world, and not for Christians. This Christian generation in general is captivated by rugby, the World Cup, and various other things that the world chases after and seeks to entertain themselves by. Christians say, Well what is wrong with following the rugby? Following sport? What is wrong with that? When I came to Jesus Christ, I was an athlete who strove hard in my sport. I was very interested in sports and I followed sports avidly. But when I came to Jesus and I knew that I was wrong before God, and I repented and Jesus came to me and I realized the reality of the cross and how Jesus Christ has risen again, THEN the interest of the world in me DIED. The world's interest in me was crucified. That's what also happened to apostle Paul. I read you his words in Galatians 6 verse 14 where he says, As for me I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world's interest in me has also died. It doesn't matter whether we have been circumcised or not, what counts is whether we have been transformed into a new creation. Dear friend, have you been transformed into a new creation? Has the world's interest in you died because of the cross? Many Christians profess faith in the cross, yet if the cross really was in their life, the power of Jesus, then the world interest would be CRUCIFIED in them. That's what happened to me: before I came to Jesus, I was still a Christian, I still believed in Jesus Christ, but after I came to him for real in seriousness of heart, and when he came to be with me making me a new creation, then the world's interest died in me, and I died to the world's interest as Paul said. Sport is the world's interest, along with a lot of other things. I'm not saying every single thing is the world's interest, such as having a family, playing sport with your family or friends in the park is a sin, no!, but I am talking about making things an idol in your life that the world strives after, because all they think about on the weekend is beer and football. That interest in me has been crucified by the cross, and that's why I no longer care about finding out about my sport and what's going on. I no longer care about the sport news. This is such a big idol in so many men's lives. All they live for is the sport news and the sporting scoreboards. You see friends, when we don't have the cross in us, and when we are not following Jesus, and we are just claiming his name yet we don't know him, then the world's interest is not going to be crucified in us, and you are still going to be following the world and its way. That is why I sincerely WARN you today: Now there is a difference between competitive Sport and bodily exercise, in fact the Bible says that bodily exercise is good for the human body so we should exercise. On another note, If you are a Christian who hasn't had the world's desire crucified in you yet, I warn you to come out of your path. You are not right before God. If you are just interested in the sport and the latest scoreboard, you don't have the cross in you and you are not on your way to the kingdom of God. As Paul said, what counts is whether or not we have been transformed into a new creation. He said, Because of the cross my interest in this world has been crucified and the world's interest in me has also died. Has that happened to you? It happened to me when I came to Christ for real and he came into my life. Has it happened for you? Or are you still following the world being God’s enemy? Dear friend, it's time to take a stand in faith. It's time to separate yourself from the world, and to come to Christ fully submitting yourself to the cross in your life so that the power of the cross will kill the desire of the world in you and the world's interest be killed in you. It is only through the power of Christ for real. The only way to get that is to pray for real, seek the Lord. You’re not headed to heaven while you have the world in you, my friend. You are not headed to the kingdom of God if you call yourself a Christian, but the world's desires and interests haven't been crucified in you, according to what the world chases after. We all know what the world chases after: they chase after wine, women, song, and sport, and godless entertainment, (and money) and like I said not every single thing is worldly, but we know the big idols of this world and we have to be separate from them, and chasing after sport is one of those idols. Be separate, come out from the world my children says the Lord , be ready or be left behind.
      Can Christians be athletes? I used to be an athlete for a time, and I used to claim Christ. During that time, the Lord kept putting into my heart, the fear that when I stood before him one day, I would have NOTHING TO SHOW. I used to ask myself: If I stood before the Lord today, would he regard my athletic performances and results as FRUIT? And I knew I was lying to myself if I thought that he would. Because I knew that the WAY IS NARROW to the kingdom of God. So at a later time, I decided to come back to the Lord for real, and obey and follow him. I want to tell you that God has NO fellowship with the world and he hates the way of the world. As we read in 1 John chapter 2: Love not the world, neither the things that are IN the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is NOT in him. For all that is in the world: the lusts of the eyes, the lusts of the flesh and the pride of life, are not of the Father but of the world. And the world is passing away with all of its lusts thereof, but he who does the will of God, abides with the Lord forever. You see my friends, SPORT represents the WORLD CUP right now, and all the things people strive after in this world: they represent, the LUSTS OF THE EYES, THE PRIDE OF LIFE, AND THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH. When we follow our own selfish ambition, we are not being pleasing to God. We are not serving the Lord. We are FAR from Jesus. You cannot serve Jesus and NOT deny yourself. Jesus said, If any man wants to follow me, he must pick up his cross and deny himself. You cannot pick up your cross and deny yourself if you are being enthralled by the world cup and the things of this world.Because you are a friend of the world, doing the same things they do while they are perishing on the path of destruction.

    I really love what John said about trust.
    Also, that we must be strong internally and know the Father before we can help others externally, I’ve been thinking a lot before that I have to stay in relationships (one-sided mostly) because I know the truth (That God is real and He is the one true way to everlasting life!) and that I have to lead them onto that. But that’s not my job, that was just a burden I placed there. If the Father wants to lead those people to Him, He’ll do it no matter what, and if He wants me to lead them to Him, he’ll show me how and place the words in my mouth! I believe He’ll do the same for you too if you believe and trust!!

    Never forget your history with God, thank Him for your life, gratitude, stop and take a moment to remember history and recognize the daily events that become your history, thank Him for it
    These are tv things that build trust in God, if you have trust in God you will be ready for tomorrow, faith will grow in your heart, you will become a conquor that which comes tomorrow, following the Holy Spirit's plan is more important than following the logic and the linear processes you have set up

      2. Build a relationship with God.
      3. Never forget your history with God.
      Malachi 3:16-18
      Romans 8:19

      Competition and the Christian
      In Gods Bible in the book of Galatians chapter 5 verses 19-21 it reads, Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,21 Envying's, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. The above scripture mentions variance , emulation, wrath and strife, God also hates pride. These attributes are present in competition and are fruits of sin. Firstly the sin of Variance is defined as contention or strife which I believe is caused by disagreements mainly when things don't go how one team wants it to go, we often see players fight against other teams, some even resort to cheating which is also unfair and is an unrighteous practice, this in turn leads to rivalry which involves both teams having some form of strife between them. Also the sin of Variance is very common in competitive sports. Now there is nothing wrong in doing bodily exercise as bodily exercise is good for the body. But the problem is with competitive Sports. Secondly the sin of Emulations is defined as trying to become equal or to rise above another , this sin is also a common practice in competitive Sports, even Satan when he rebelled against God had said that he would rise above God and be like God. Isaiah 14-13-14 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. When one sport player competes, he or she is always trying to rise above the opponent to become the best, this is what God hates as Satan had the same mentality in that he told himself he would become like the most high and rise above him, this is the sin of emulation. Today many who compete in sport try to boost their self esteem by making themselves become the best, thus, because of pride they want to become like the most high in their field of Sport so that everyone would revere then and treat them like a God which is also the sin of idolatry and covetousness. The Scripture I quoted above also mentioned wrath and strife and we all know that these are also the fruits of sports.Sports is also involved with money making for greed. One doesn't need to become part of competitive sports in order to come out of poverty in the same way one doesn't need to become a prostitute to get out of poverty. God can provide for us and our needs no matter the circumstance without us having to join in the sin. Another excuse some use to justify sports is that it helps to unite and it helps take away depression and it brings peace. But this I say is only a false way to bring peace because usually as the game is over we go back to fighting one another and we go back to the sin of drunkedness and then war and depression starts again because the foundation was built on sand rather than on the Rock. If you want to be truly free you must build on the Rock Jesus Christ rather than on the sand, ask Jesus to free you from depression, strife and fighting and he will, you don't need to join in the sin of competitive sport to get a false relief from depression.
      Ask God for the endurance to overcome the temptation to watch competitive sport. Many wonder why following sports is wrong, of the world, and not for Christians. This Christian generation in general is captivated by rugby, the World Cup, and various other things that the world chases after and seeks to entertain themselves by. Christians say, Well what is wrong with following the rugby? Following sport? What is wrong with that? When I came to Jesus Christ, I was an athlete who strove hard in my sport. I was very interested in sports and I followed sports avidly. But when I came to Jesus and I knew that I was wrong before God, and I repented and Jesus came to me and I realized the reality of the cross and how Jesus Christ has risen again, THEN the interest of the world in me DIED. The world's interest in me was crucified. That's what also happened to apostle Paul. I read you his words in Galatians 6 verse 14 where he says, As for me I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world's interest in me has also died. It doesn't matter whether we have been circumcised or not, what counts is whether we have been transformed into a new creation. Dear friend, have you been transformed into a new creation? Has the world's interest in you died because of the cross? Many Christians profess faith in the cross, yet if the cross really was in their life, the power of Jesus, then the world interest would be CRUCIFIED in them. That's what happened to me: before I came to Jesus, I was still a Christian, I still believed in Jesus Christ, but after I came to him for real in seriousness of heart, and when he came to be with me making me a new creation, then the world's interest died in me, and I died to the world's interest as Paul said. Sport is the world's interest, along with a lot of other things. I'm not saying every single thing is the world's interest, such as having a family, playing sport with your family or friends in the park is a sin, no!, but I am talking about making things an idol in your life that the world strives after, because all they think about on the weekend is beer and football. That interest in me has been crucified by the cross, and that's why I no longer care about finding out about my sport and what's going on. I no longer care about the sport news. This is such a big idol in so many men's lives. All they live for is the sport news and the sporting scoreboards. You see friends, when we don't have the cross in us, and when we are not following Jesus, and we are just claiming his name yet we don't know him, then the world's interest is not going to be crucified in us, and you are still going to be following the world and its way. That is why I sincerely WARN you today: Now there is a difference between competitive Sport and bodily exercise, in fact the Bible says that bodily exercise is good for the human body so we should exercise. On another note, If you are a Christian who hasn't had the world's desire crucified in you yet, I warn you to come out of your path. You are not right before God. If you are just interested in the sport and the latest scoreboard, you don't have the cross in you and you are not on your way to the kingdom of God. As Paul said, what counts is whether or not we have been transformed into a new creation. He said, Because of the cross my interest in this world has been crucified and the world's interest in me has also died. Has that happened to you? It happened to me when I came to Christ for real and he came into my life. Has it happened for you? Or are you still following the world being God’s enemy? Dear friend, it's time to take a stand in faith. It's time to separate yourself from the world, and to come to Christ fully submitting yourself to the cross in your life so that the power of the cross will kill the desire of the world in you and the world's interest be killed in you. It is only through the power of Christ for real. The only way to get that is to pray for real, seek the Lord. You’re not headed to heaven while you have the world in you, my friend. You are not headed to the kingdom of God if you call yourself a Christian, but the world's desires and interests haven't been crucified in you, according to what the world chases after. We all know what the world chases after: they chase after wine, women, song, and sport, and godless entertainment, (and money) and like I said not every single thing is worldly, but we know the big idols of this world and we have to be separate from them, and chasing after sport is one of those idols. Be separate, come out from the world my children says the Lord , be ready or be left behind.
      Can Christians be athletes? I used to be an athlete for a time, and I used to claim Christ. During that time, the Lord kept putting into my heart, the fear that when I stood before him one day, I would have NOTHING TO SHOW. I used to ask myself: If I stood before the Lord today, would he regard my athletic performances and results as FRUIT? And I knew I was lying to myself if I thought that he would. Because I knew that the WAY IS NARROW to the kingdom of God. So at a later time, I decided to come back to the Lord for real, and obey and follow him. I want to tell you that God has NO fellowship with the world and he hates the way of the world. As we read in 1 John chapter 2: Love not the world, neither the things that are IN the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is NOT in him. For all that is in the world: the lusts of the eyes, the lusts of the flesh and the pride of life, are not of the Father but of the world. And the world is passing away with all of its lusts thereof, but he who does the will of God, abides with the Lord forever. You see my friends, SPORT represents the WORLD CUP right now, and all the things people strive after in this world: they represent, the LUSTS OF THE EYES, THE PRIDE OF LIFE, AND THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH. When we follow our own selfish ambition, we are not being pleasing to God. We are not serving the Lord. We are FAR from Jesus. You cannot serve Jesus and NOT deny yourself. Jesus said, If any man wants to follow me, he must pick up his cross and deny himself. You cannot pick up your cross and deny yourself if you are being enthralled by the world cup and the things of this world.Because you are a friend of the world, doing the same things they do while they are perishing on the path of destruction.

    I felt the spirit come upon me a year ago like something bad uncontrollable was coming I explained to my partner what was happening and about seasons. I seen a plane crash in my dream I couldn’t save anyone. The dream meant the plane represents my partner (known to me) and the crash the disaster and I jumped in the water trying to help and when I jumped in it was crocodile infested waters. So I wasn’t very helpful saving but I did stay afloat unharmed with others. A year later after one of my worst and hardest seasons. I see the disaster was already planned and I couldn’t do anything. I have learnt to Trust God and be quiet and ask God before I speak and before I do anything. My family think I’m crazy Jesus freak but they love me and my faith and I believe God is about to bring me out of the season like Job and if not I’m happy where I am 🙏 Both my parents now ask about Jesus and they live on the opposite sides of the Country. God bless
