WATCH THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!

I MUST SHARE WITH YOU SOMETHING, MANY OF YOU DO NOT WANT TO HEAR.

BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING! WATCH THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!!

The enemy can use those whom you may think are for you to lay trap for you. Even more through those who are not saved. Everyone who say, they are saved ain't saved!  There are those who serve God only through Lip Service! The Life they live does not line up with the Standard of God and you know this!

Sometimes, we make excuses for it being okay because, of who they are:
An Ex you're still in love with, An old Friend, Family, co- church member...
Sometimes, God has already removed them and we go back and get them!

WATCH THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!!

When are changed the things we used to do we no longer do; the Way we use to behave we no longer act that way in open nor in secret; We distance and separate from the company we use to keep to shield ourselves from being tempted and corrupted in anyway.

To Feel like you cannot enjoy yourself without sin is a Trick and a Trap from the enemy. ARE YOU WILLING TO GO TO HELL FOR 5 MIN TO A FEW HOURS OF WHAT You DEEM to be PLEASURE (FUN)??? What's fun about getting drunk to the point of sick? What's fun about doing drugs that destroy your brain cells? What is fun about subjecting yourself to disease: sleeping around with randoms without condoms? Club hopping? (Doing things in excess) The long-term affects of any of these things can cause death Physical AND Spiritual.

YOU CAN'T BE SOBER MINDED IF YOU ARE NOT SOBER. 
9 out of 10 do drugs, alcohol, sexual addiction for an escape!

THE ENEMY LOVES TO TWIST THIS!!!
He WANTS you to Think there is no Life outside of sin;  He WANTS you to think there is something to be Missed outside of sin. That's the devil (He a Liar) he comes to Kill, Steal and Destroy (Jn 10:10) you and any desire or thought you have about living the life you were purposed to live in Christ. He knows exactly, who to use to get you tripped up in your walk and perhaps pull you out of the Will of GOD.

EITHER YOU WALK WITH GOD OR WALK WITH THE FLESH?

I have stated in many topics before you must change your Mindset.
You can have good clean fun.
MAKE THEM THINK, RATHER SHOW THEM THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEIR LIFESTYLE For a Change; and you would be Absolutely, RIGHT.
WATCH THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!!

Thank You, Holy Spirit

Church Hopper #3: THE DOUBLE-MINDED MAN

A Double-Minded man is someone who suffers from Divided Loyalties, not only does this person have no stability is his life but, none in his Spiritual walk. They are Unstable. James 1:8

On one hand, he/she wishes to maintain a religious confession and desires the presence of God in his/her life; On the other hand, he/she misses the ways of the world is still conformed to it and desires, prefers and salivates for its ethics and standards.

Due to the instability of this this person, making excuses is likely to become a regular practice different from the Church Hopper 2: Playing Church; this persons hopping starts in his/her mind While those that play church make excuses for their lack of performance in the church.

Church hopper #3 Takes calculated thought into finding an reason or making an excuse to leave the church his/her plan to leave the church has always been premeditated. The excuses are part of him/her needing validation from others to do it and will likely, drag around until they get it.

WHAT ARE YOU SEARCHING FOR CHURCH HOPPER??

If this person does not find validation from the current church then, now they need to find their reason;  because now it is affecting their performance and they have become highly sensitive and cannot stand correction and now they have found an excuse to bolt.

Remember* This person is unstable and did not get validation and Now that they are gone he/she is unsure that they made the right decision.

 When you do not take responsibility for your actions and mistakes. Not getting what you want at one church so now you want to go get Validated somewhere else; not only that but will also seek out a man/woman of God to justify your departure; to contradict the word spoken from the church you left. Did you leave decent and in order? You left a church with a seat in the front to seek validation in a church from the back pew.

HOW MANY DOORS WILL YOU WALK THROUGH??

GOD's eye are in every place Church Hopper; it doesn't matter what church you go to. God's word does not change. "You can run, but you can't hide." If you were wrong there, Guess what? You're still wrong! If you have a calling on your life: Guess what? You still have a calling on your life, Jonah. If it's right, it's still right.  if they are a true anointed man or woman of God, then the same Truth, the same Correction will be spoken in your life.

God's word is built on a sure foundation.

YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE WORD, TO FIT YOUR FLESH!!

Because the church did not validate you, now you have made you way back into the world and, Guess What? They will validate you because

John 15:19 (AMP) If you belonged to the world, the world would love [you as] its own and would treat you with affection. But you are not of the world [you no longer belong to it], but I have chosen you out of the world. And because of this the world hates you.

God's Masterpiece: God's DNA is in YOU!

You are God's Masterpiece!!

We are God's Masterpiece his handiwork created in his image and by his divine design. We are the canvas.

* Ephesians 2:10 Amplified Bible (AMP)
10 For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].
God has put gifts in us— heart, abilities, personality, and experiences — and wants us/ you to use them.” You have worth because of what God says about you and has done for you.
He didn’t create you to just sit and soak and sour. He brought you here to make a contribution with your life. And everyone is needed. There are no little people in the family of God. Every part is necessary.
I want to share this quote with you...

The first Hope of a painter who feels hopeful about a painting is the Hope that the painting will move. that it will live outside of its frame. _Gertrude Stein

We need to to step outside the confines of our frame; just because God created you there doesn't mean that its where he intends you to stay. You must allow the word of God and the Holy Spirit to grow you outside of those borders.
Genesis 1:27(AMP) So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them.

We have Gods DNA in us: we were created "In the image and likeness of God"
DNA it determines who we are it is our makeup is our Father and Mother and their father and mother so forth. DNA is a code made up of letters 3 billion of them in fact is said, that Human DNA is spelled out in 3 billion letters.  

I found my Biological father after 34 years in 2003 and before I found him I didn't really know who I was - I was very different from my brothers and sisters who had a different father than me and being young, I didn't understand why I was so different. I felt like a misfit. But When I found "my" Father (Glory to God!) from the time I laid eyes on him, I knew, I belonged to him I shared his likeness; I began to understand, why I held my hand a certain way; and even in my posture it was because I had his mannerisms even having been without him for 34 years. I was able to look at old pictures of him and because we shared the same DNA I saw a picture of him in is youth and my son looks so much like him because my son shares my DNA.
Do you see where I am going with this?
Right now, some of you are alienated/estranged from your Father and its because you were born into sin but when you are/were "Born Again" you begin to see who you really belong to and where you come from because God's DNA is in "Us" 
We can be like Jesus. We can do what Jesus did, we can walk like he walked and talk like he talked. 

The Question is Why aren't we? 

Saved and Unsaved... It's time for you TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE!

You are so much more than you even know! I when you really catch hold of it... I't like our Prophet has been teaching "We go from Glory to GLORY!"
We are Gods Masterpiece 
Read Psalms 139:13-19

Thank You, Jesus for this!

STOP!!!

PEOPLE OF GOD!! STOP!

STOP! BELIEVING THAT YOUR CURRENT SITUATION IS ALL THERE IS TO YOU. 
STOP! LETTING YOUR CIRCUMSTANCE DICTATE YOUR DESTINY!! AREN'T YOUR TIRED OF THAT??

GET OUT OF YOUR RUT!!
I'M READING MY WORD AND LOOKING AT THE PEOPLE OF GOD AND OUR LIVES; DO NOT PARALLEL WHAT AND WHO THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, WE ARE, WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE AND WHERE WE SHOULD BE.
THINGS ARE NOT MOVING FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD BECAUSE, WE HAVE NOT SHIFTED OUT OF OUR LAZY BONES, THAT'S RIGHT OUR LAZINESS!!

YOU ARE NOT A PRODUCT OF WHERE YOU CAME FROM SO BE A PRODUCT OF WHERE YOU ARE GOING!! IF YOU ARE ASSOCIATED WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING NO BETTER THAN YOU ARE THEN YOU NEED TO FIND PEOPLE WHO HAVE KEYS TO SUCCESS IN CHRIST AND IN LIFE. AS A PEOPLE FEAR SUCCESS WHEN WE SHOULD BEWARE POVERTY....ITS SAD

WE SAY, WE'RE PRAYING;
WE SAY WE ARE KEEPING THE FAITH;
WE SING, I DON'T HAVE NO DOUBT
BUT WHERE IS YOUR WORKS??????????????????
FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD- DEAD-DEAD-DEAD
YOU HAVE TO EXERCISE YOUR FAITH-
NOT JUST SEE YOUR SELF IN YOUR BLESSING-
PREPARE FOR YOUR BLESSING!!

GOD, NEVER SAID ASK, BELIEVE AND WAIT FOR ME TO PUT IT IN YOUR LAP. HE SAID, ASK, BELIEVE AND RECEIVE! 
WHEN YOU RECEIVE SOMETHING YOU ACQUIRE IT THAT MEANS YOU TAKE POSSESSION YOU TAKE OWNERSHIP OF IT AS YOUR OWN. 

WHEN WE KNOW, WE ARE GETTING NEW FURNITURE WE GO THROUGH THE HOUSE. WE GET GET RID OF THE OLD TO MAKE ROOM FOR WHATS COMING WE WILL HAVE A BIG EMPTY SPOT IN OUR HOUSE WHY BECAUSE, WE HAVE THAT EXPECTATION BUILT UP. THIS IS ALL WE NEED TO DO...
I AM BELIEVING GOD FOR A HOUSE I WALK THE GROUND ONCE A WEEK (ONE OF MY NEW NEIGHBORS WAVED AT ME THE LAST TIME I WAS THERE.) I KNOW WHERE I AM GOING TO PLANT MY FLOWERS IN THE BACK, I HAVE THE ADDRESS ON MY BOARD AT MY DESK. 

WE HAVE TO COMMAND THE BLESSING!
COMMAND MEANS TO BE IN A STRONG ENOUGH POSITION TO HAVE OR SECURE SOMETHING,

STOP! SELF -DEFEATING

I DECLARE MY CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCE IS NOT MY PERMANENT POSITION! GLORY TO GOD!!!
THANK YOU, HOLY SPIRIT!!

#ICareAboutYourSoul YOU SHOULD TOO!!
James 2:17 So too, faith by itself, if it is not complemented by action, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.

Don't Touch if you haven't Prayed: Revelation of Prayer

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 (AMP)

Therefore we do not become discouraged [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid]. Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our inner self is being [progressively] renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]! 18 So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable.

Trouble - Trouble - Trouble
I can't say, I've ever met anyone who hasn't had it. 
Lord, knows, I have had my share of Troubles, Whew!
Nothing, will put you on your knees like, Trouble. I have learned and witnessed that even people who do not know God, will pray when trouble comes.
If they say, nothing but, "God help me!"

This passage of scripture, tells me:

•  Don't lose heart ( Be anxious for nothing Phil 4:6-9) the pain of it is temporary and, it is moving over for much better and and much more.
• Our natural circumstances are no match for nor bigger than my God Hebrews 13:5,6; Isaiah 40:29
• Regardless, of what it looks like on the outside, our strength is being renewed by God; These things we actually, face are not as big as they appear, do not  focus so much on what is                                                          going on in the natural.

What makes you go into a car dealership, store, to your mechanic or to anyone to whom you need to make a major purchase and, believe you can get it for less than their asking price? 

Reason #1...Because of Faith, you believe at that very moment that you can and, they will. You have no evidence of this. All feelings aside, you step out into that which you cannot see. 

This is the same determination needed to believe God:

• Through your Storm;
• For your Healing;
• Out of your Lack;
• And, for you Miracle

Reason #2...Because, we have God's DNA in us (having been created in his image) We can believe and, it come to fruition.  Right about now, the enemy is probably whispering "That is different."

NO! It is not! Remember, The devil is a Liar! 

All you need is a Mustard seed of Faith, You used more than believing, that you could get them to drop the asking, price.

I'm asking you to Drop your Doubt.

Don't Touch your Troubles if you haven't Prayed, 

We learn a great deal in this life...

We learn how to survive; 

We learn who we can trust and who we can't;

We learn from Trouble...

How Strong & Resilient we really are;

We learn to put out Trust in God;

We learn to go to Him in Prayer

I Thank, the Holy Spirit for being a Teacher and for this topic because, it exposes the enemy, 

You learn... You can't Trust the devil.

What you shouldn't Touch, is your Trouble yourself. Let God, Do what you, Can't. You do not have to Negotiate with the devil, When GOD will Fix It, for a Mustard seed of Faith. 

The devil brought the Trouble to begin with (YOU resist him!) 

God is that Greater Figure of Hope.

Read Romans 12:1-2; Ephesians 4:17-24; Hebrews 4:15

We make mistakes (You are not alone) We are not infallible! 

We can go to GOD; he is such a Forgiving God, you will never know if you don't go to him and, he will remember your sin no more!

In order, to completely recover from your Mistake/Sin you need to also Forgive yourself so that you are not bound by the weight of Guilt.

The devil will hold us hostage by our on guilt.

Be Free and Sin no more. Do not take his Grace & Mercy for Granted. #ICareAboutYourSoul You should too! #SistahSarah #NAG

GOD LOVES YOU!!

PRESS YOUR WAY!!

PRESS YOUR WAY!!!

Are you a bit down/sad today?

Have you been hurt/betrayed by someone?

Are you tired, of going through the same o' Junk?

Are you Tired, of Struggling?

Are you Trying to Kick a Bad habit?

Are you Tired, of being Bound by Sickness?

Do you feel like you can't Trust anyone?

Are you Scared, you might lose Everything?

Someone, you know needs Prayer?

THEN I'M ASKING YOU TO

PRESS YOUR WAY!!

YOUR HELP AIN'T AT HOME, AND IT WASN'T AT THE CLUB LAST NIGHT..... IT'S AT CHURCH!!

IF YOU WOULD JUST LOSE THE WORLD...YOU WILL GAIN SO MUCH MORE!!

PRESS YOUR WAY??

Ephesians 1:18 (AMP)
And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the [a]hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the [b]Saints (God’s people),

A moment in Prayer and a few weeks ago, and I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, “I will stretch my hand in the earth and set order! The sinner, will not inherit my Kingdom; The homosexual, will not inherit my Kingdom; The lukewarm, will not inherit my Kingdom; The unrighteous, will not inherit my Kingdom; Men of God conform to the lust of their flesh and to this world and will be spewed out of my mouth! I will stretch my hand in the Earth and set order!” What I saw in the spirit caused me to weep for those that are lost. The lost ones have been in my Spirit since and, I have been sending up prayers for them Praying his grace and mercy.

 If you are not saved. You do not know Christ. If you do not know Christ, you are LOST!                     You are walking in the dark because, you can’t see the Light! When you cannot see, it is because you are blind and when you are blind; you cannot see what is Right in Front of you and so you stumble (sin). Many of you have heard the word but choose to remain in your sin. Blinded Minds; Blinded Lives! This happens for a few reasons:
1. But even if our gospel is [in some sense] hidden [behind a veil], it is hidden [only] to those who are perishing; 4 among them the god of this world [Satan] has blinded the minds of the unbelieving to prevent them from seeing the illuminating light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Cor 4:3-4
2. But the natural [unbelieving] man does not accept the things [the teachings and revelations] of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness [absurd and illogical] to him; and he is incapable of understanding them, because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated, [and he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters]. 1 Cor 2:14
3. For the time, will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2 Tim 4:3-4
4. You have Free will. (It is your choice true enough just know, that you must live with the consequences of our decisions) 

See, you reject the word because, you are listening to someone who is a known deceiver and will continue to do so (Refer to The Devil is a Liar  http://virtuousviewpoint.blogspot.com/2016/10/the-devil-is-liar.html)
The enemy, that devil knows you; he knows what to use to keep you from church and, every time you try he will set a stumbling block in your way.  The enemy comes to Kill, Steal and Destroy this is his sole purpose. I want to shed some light through the Holy Spirit in your dark places to help you see. Christ is come that we might have Life! The enemy, will show you everything you do not want to Blind you from what you need. The Enemy knows how to play on your weakness, to keep you down we know people like this in our lives they know, exactly, what to say, to get us to do things (the enemy will work through others to keep us from God.)  
If you really, tired Jesus is the Christ the Savior.
Stop, walking in the Dark you do not want to bumping into the same walls.

It’s time to get free #ICareAboutYourSoul
You can’t stop smoking? 
You can’t leave an abusive relationship? 
You can’t stop drinking? 
Drugs and want to stop but can’t? 
That is the enemy at work in your life trying to keep you bound? This is how he keeps you from being delivered because once you are set free he must lose his hold on you and if you continue to resist him he must flee.

Thank You, Holy Spirit!!

Help others with your Wisdom Intact

Why should I be discouraged?  When I put my Hope in God.

 When we take on a responsibility God never gave us, it can become too heavy a burden to bear. 

If you’re in the habit of Helping People, you soon realize they don’t always respond 

or behave in the way  with which you’d like. We end up pulling out of ourselves more than we would like to for longer than we like.

And, we get Burned out. When God wants you to do something, 

he supplies the Energy, Endurance, Patience and Perseverance to do it...

There is No Burn Out!! He will also, Release you in his timing.

And that’s the case whether it’s your children, your friends, your family, 
church members, neighbors or the people you work with.  

When we know we have done what God told us to do, We need to trust him to do what we can't do. 
We can help people out of the Goodness of our hearts But, we need to Seek  God direction 
as to How much, How long and in What ways to help others. 
When we take on responsibilities God didn't give us we cannot get upset over not being 
able to control the outcome. 
When we have done our part, Let go and let God do his. 

Phil 2:13

13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

CHURCH HOPPING!

Church Hopping is Revelant in Todays Church

People tend to Avoid this Subject: Not Today!

Why do People Church Hop??

Reason 1:
They do not take the time for Growth or to Establish Roots. Ps. 92:12-13

Reason 2:
They Do not connect to the Vision/Direction of the Church. Heb. 12:15

Reason 3:
Running from the Truth!! They do not like correction or respect Authority. They have itching ears 2 Tim 4:3-4

Reason 4:
They are Sensitive Saints and get offended (feelings hurt) over every little thing. Prov. 18:19
 Low self-esteem.

Reason 5:
They have their own Agendas. 
a.) Came to church looking for a Man/Woman instead of God.
b.) They feel they are called, into the Ministry. They want to preach.
When it doesn't work out their way they leave.

Reason 6:
They Lost their Zeal for the things of God 2 Tim 4:10

Reason 7:
They are not completely Delivered and no desire to be. Sin is the Dominating factor in their lives.

If you cannot commit to a church; How can you commit to God??

*Careful, 
You may not know, What you may be Hopping into! Or, Who is Hopping into your Church.

#ICareAboutYourSoul Thank You, Holy Spirit #SistahSarah Love my Church #NewAppointed

YOU GOTTA USE WHAT IS LOOSE; TO BREAK THE SHACKLES OFF WHAT IS BOUND!!

YOU HAVE TO USE WHAT IS LOOSE; TO BREAK THE SHACKLES OFF WHAT IS BOUND!

When we are bound by our Circumstances;
                   bound by our Problems;
                   bound by our Financial Woes;
                   bound by Procrastination and bound by Sin

STOP! ALLOWING YOUR CHAINS TO DICTATE YOUR PRAISE!!

Acts 16:16-40 (read)
Paul and Silas, were beaten, imprisoned and bound unable to walk around freely, unlike
the physical prisons of today. Think about that because, it is one thing to be in prison:
But to be Bound in your Prison?!

The enemy creates Prisons in our lives; We create prisons when we do not trust God,
Prisons hold us Captive, Hinder & Stagnate
our Growth.
These are your Doubt Prison, Your Fear Prison, Your Secret Sin Prison, Your Worry Prison
and Your Prison of Unbelief.
Paul & Silas:
When it seemed  like Everything was against them; When it seemed like there
was no way out; When it seemed like all Hope was Fading: They used what was Loose;
To Break the Shackles off What was Bound! They Praised God in the Midst of their circumstances!

With their feet Bound, they remembered (as we should) that GOD, Keeps his word

His word says, PS 34;19 Many are the afflictions of the Righteous but the Lord delivered them
out of them ALL. John 8:36 Whom the son set free is Free Indeed. That must have been when
they realized their hands weren't bound (Some state that there hands were bound also the bible says their feet were in bonds) and lifted Holy hands in the midst of the circumstance

• It may seem you are up to your neck in debt;
• it may seem like your problems are pulling you under like quicksand;
• it may seem like you are about to lose your job or home;
• you may have an unsaved spouse or family member pulling you in every direction
• it may seem like No one understands what you are going through

But see Paul & Silas realized, their tongues were loose and began to disregard
the current situation; the Pain; the Struggle in order to separate themselves to
GOD and the more they surrendered the circumstances. The Louder the Praise got
because, "They Turned the Volume Up!' and those heavy shackles fell off, the prison
shook and the doors flew open.

What Blessed me about this passage as well, is that though they were no longer bound,
no longer captive - they remained, they didn't leave.
The reason they didn't leave is because they saw a need they saw a need; the guard himself was bound and needed to be set free.
Now that they were Loose:
They can help the one that is Bound!

There are times when we may need a little help and cannot breakthrough on our own.
I thought about, when Jesus raised Lazarus, after he commanded him to come forth
he saw that he was bound hand & foot and his face was bound: He told those that were
near to Loose him and let him Go.
The Brothers & Sisters, that are Loosed can help break the shackles off our
Brothers & Sisters that are Bound. We need Corporate Praise to help us Breakthrough to where God is. This is one of the reasons Church and Fellowship are so important. When you are in the Pride Prison that pride will not allow you to seek help and the enemy will say, you don't need to let people know your business just to hold you captive.

YOU GOTTA USE WHAT IS LOOSE; TO BREAK THE SHACKLES OFF WHAT IS BOUND!!

PRAY Men and Women of GOD PRAY!!

Put on the Whole Armour of GOD and PRAY!!

The enemy can be defeated if we would just Pray in Faith on our Knees.

PRAYER is a weapon! If you have a relationship with God,

 I exhort you to Pray for someone other than " yourself " and  "your" family 

go sincerely to the throne for someone else and watch

God move in their life as well as theirs. 

Father, The one reading this they may not know you...

Let's make sure they have get a formal introduction: 

In the name of Jesus. 

Thank you for it Lord, and Thank you for being so Good

Sistah Sarah's Short Take on Self-Sabotage

What is Self-Sabotage?
Self-Defeat

Why do we do it?
Because, we are connected to a certain set of Circumstances or Behavior

The person isn't always aware of their own self-sabotage or know how to dis-engage from their originating behavior. This affects so many different people in many different walks, and aspects of life. Even the Wealthy, if they were to suddenly, become poor many would not know how to adapt to a common life-style.

Here are some examples:
A man/woman may have been imprisoned for a number of years  - Then to be set-free you would think he/she would quickly adapt to his freedom but cannot because he/she has adapted to confined spaces, lots of noise and rules and a structured environment. This person is stagnated and hesitates because they're used to being told what to do and when to do it because he/she is now accustomed to a Prison Mentality.

A man/woman who is homeless, not used to having their own will adapt to handouts, hoarding, and even others fending for them this person has also adapted to becoming a taker and has lost the concept of giving. When he/she is given a roof over his/her head, a job, etc,. The self-sabotage would be the inability to keep a job though it brings money because, he has adapted to not having to work; he/she has no drive, no initiative, refuses to do things for his/self improvement, hoards food or items. Sad but True. this person has a Homeless Mentality.

A month or so ago,
I wrote about Changing our mind-set which can be found on my blog page: http://virtuousviewpoint.blogspot.com/2016/09/change-is-destiny-rejection-is.html people will make excuses to justify lack of growth and productivity.
Ting  in there Faith; 
his is another obstacle that affects us in the church - in that, those of us who should be leaders in the church have instead become Jezebel's Puppets (Jezebel is a Hindering Spirit & more) They are hindered from going Forth and have taken on a The Convenient Christian Mentality and the enemy is trying to cripple the church with members who are handicapping the progress of the church because they only want to do what is convenient. They do not want to be stretched out of their comfort zones; they are not grow

They do not Fellowship;
They have no initiative
No Drive;
Do not share the Good News; Do not want to Give regardless of the Benefit of being Blessing it is likely, that these members are stagnated and have been in the same position for years. 

This is Self-Sabotage in the Church and they are Self-Sabotaging their Destiny in Christ. This is a Convenient Christian Mentality.




 These Mentalities mean:  The way of Thinking; Their Mind-set; Frame of Mind; Cast of Mind.
