Be blessed

            Doing it God's Way 

                                          With Reverend Michael Cartwright  

      

God will bless us by using our purpose in our life to help others

 Do we have the integrity and the honor, that pleases God 

Do we have the spiritual integrity and honor that pleases God? Are we saying it from a pure heart when we tell others? God bless you!   

"Dear brothers, what's the use of saying that you have faith and are Christians if you aren't proving it by helping others? Will that kind of faith save anyone? If you have a friend who is in need of food and clothing, and you say to him, "Well, good-bye and God bless you; stay warm and eat hearty," and then don't give him clothes or food, what good does that do? So you see, it isn't enough just to have faith. You must also do good to prove that you have it. Faith that doesn't show itself by good works is no faith at all-it is dead and useless." James14-17

Are our hearts pure with the right motives in helping others? 

"People may be pure in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their motives." Proverbs 16:2

 It is so important that we understand that all blessings that come to us are from God, He allows them to come to us from many different circumstances that occur in our lives, including from other people that we are connected to who just got blessed. 

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above." James 1:17 

 We can learn a lot from wonderfully blessed and spiritually enlightened people like Mother Theresa, Mahatma Ghandi, Martin Luther King and the many great spiritual leaders of today like Reverend Billy Graham that have brought the face of humanity to the world's suffering and anguish with the message that we should have peace in our heart throughout the world. Everyone of these remarkable people have had these same redeeming qualities that Jesus had, they had true humility, compassion and unconditional love to serve others without question and by doing so glorified God in everything that they say and do. Because their hearts were pure and filled with love, the world is a better place because of each one of them  If we can learn to care for our fellow man one day at a time like they did, God will bless us more for it through out our destiny.

If we only help out others for the sole purpose so that we look good in front of others, God tells us that we have already received our reward. If you want God to really bless you in your life for helping others like Mother Theresa did, then do good things in secret.

Do we have the honor to do the right thing, when we feel no one else is watching over us. Just like God will bless us for doing good things in secret, God will bless us even more when He puts us in a position of trust and we do the right thing when we feel nobody else is watching over us. The truth is God is always watching over us. No matter what temptations are before us, always remember that we are not working for man/woman, we are working for God. If you honor God with this truth, by always using your honor, integrity and obedience. He will protect and prosper you in your life with promotions, good friends and a loving family.

God does not want us to just care if we go to Heaven, but that we care enough if all others go to Heaven too! God will know us by the purity of our hearts on judgment day. Always be a good Samaritan and glorify God with the right motives, always do good deeds without ever expecting nothing back in return from them. If you ask God with a pure heart and with the right motives, God will move Heaven and earth to bless you with the same courage that he gave David. He will give you the same wisdom that he gave Solomon. He will give you the same strength that he gave Samson. And most importantly He will never leave you in troubled times and He will never forsake you. 

Friends, It is no accident or coincident that we all stand alone before God on judgment day. Our soul's will have brought nothing of material worth with us as we stand alone before God on Judgment day. We will have no family, friends or attorneys to represent us to ask God to show mercy on us. We will all stand alone and be held accountable for every idle word that we utter, and our actions will be judged for the purity and motives of our heart's.

We know we cannot please God or be continually blessed without being fruitful and productive in our Faith, Honor and Integrity to His Word and Obedient to His Way!  From Reverend Michael Cartwright's excerpts book: God has my back so bring it on! Coming out soon! www.Godhasmyback.com 

"You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours."   Psalm 128: 2

 "God has shaped my life for the purpose to share with others why we should not judge other people and that He will always bless you and He will never leave you or forsake you!" 

They say sometimes all it takes for evil to triumph, is just for good people to do nothing.

As I reflect back over the 50 years of my life,  I try to think why God has always been there for me and that He has never left me in the hundreds of times that I have documented. I have come to realize that it's not because I'm so special, we are all special and loved equally by God. I believe that it comes down to this simple truth,

God does not care if we are the wisest, or the most articulate, or that we look the coolest in carrying out His divine Will in being a blessing to others and to Himself.

God only cares about what is in our hearts, are we helping others out because we are expecting something back from them for our good deeds, God will always bless us if we are obedient to Him with a pure heart and with the right motive.                                

"People may be pure in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their motives."    Proverbs 16:2

 God has promised us that if we truly care about others that He will always bless us and protect us in times of trouble.
