Believe in God, get closer to Him, and thank Him

We are God`s sons, the Father`s heirs, and coheirs with Christ

When we go through afflictions as human beings, we are used to saying it`s other people`s fault, but Jesus didn`t teach that. Jesus told us if we suffer, it`s our fault and if we have anything, it comes from God. We cause our harm for not understanding God`s desire

When the born blind man was seeing, the disciples asked Jesus who sinned between he and his parents, but Jesus no one, and it was to bless the name of God.

Biblically speaking, even prayers, it`s God who makes through us. When someone prays in spirit, it`s not this person who prays, but the Holy Spirit of God who speaks by us with silent whispers. The prayer that touches your heart, at the church, doesn`t belong to us men, but to the Holy Spirit of God through us. Romans 8: 12 call us sons and heirs and that`s our real greatest luck. You and I will be lucky like that in the Kingdom of God! We are not in debt of flesh, but of Spirit. No one owes the Bishop Franciléia nor me anything, as well as we don`t owe anyone anything. We don`t owe anyone reports on our lives, or feedback of our conquests to other men, but God. We are debtors to God. Never rely on your own resources, on your capacity, much less on other men`s, never live according to your own flesh or other`s. Be aware that, if anyone helps you, it was God who sent the person into your life. God likes using men, it`s a privilege to us, therefore, never get eluded. Our culture testifies against God when a political authority says that he took certain actions because everything comes form God. God must always be recognized; just God may provide us anything. I want you to recognize God in my life. If you live for your flesh, you will live for your death. Your flesh motivates you to be lazy, to hate, to envy, to gossip, to do harm, evil, to be corruptive. But the ones, who live for the Spirit, always hear the voice of God and are aware of their dependence on God not on men. Peter, God`s man, disciples and apostle, suggested Jesus not going to Jerusalem and Jesus banished him and called him satan. Jesus looks at us and sees if we are just men or if there`s another thing behind us or hidden in us. He called Peter as stone on the way for talking like man. People help when they bring good things, but they disturb when they play the role of a stone on our way, when they betray, cheat, or poison your life. There are more people who like us than people who don`t. Media attack people and those, who don`t know you, say bad things about you. But even those, who are attacked by the media, conquer many people. It`s very seldom to have someone who is hated more than loved. When people like you, they almost never say, but when they hate, they say right away. But you can be calm because when they need you, they show up. Any good thing a man can produce comes from God. Once, Jesus witnessed a man hurting and killing men of God. If I saw it, my wish would be to spank him even not being allowed to. Not Jesus, He loved this man, talked to him, made him blind, and turned him into a different man, from God`s enemy to a preacher of the gospel, which was Paul. I would like to have ten per cent of the anointment God provided him with. Human beings tend to enslave their like ones and only God tolerates this ingratitude, which is also part of man. People love assigning what God performs to other people. That`s a big mistake because we don`t owe anything to our flesh, our debt is with God. The Lord uses the one He wants and the way He wants. We didn`t receive the spirit of slavery. The slave is conditioned to depend just on his owner. God is different even in this issue. If we were slaves of Him, it would be wonderful, but He didn`t call us slaves, but as instruments, representatives, ambassadors. God wants to have freedom in order to put things in our lives. If we learn how to recognize God, to worship Him, to admit everything comes from Him, He performs wonders for us, fulfills the wishes of our hearts. We have everything to be happy if we recognize that just God really performs wonders in our lives. Recognize the Lord and your success will thrive. If everyday God blessed these contradictory people, figure out if they agree with God, what He would do to us. Even rebellious ones, He gave us His hands, so if we agree with Him, we will receive much more than what I can say. We are made God`s sons, testified by the Holy Spirit, and if we are God`s sons, we are God`s heirs, coheirs of Christ and we will be glorified after suffering. We, the ones who accept Jesus, we may suffer. But after suffering, we will be glorified. You, who cry, be aware that the best part comes soon afterwards.
