Many of us can define the word Perfect.
or by means we even can discuss in group or privately about certain person whether they are perfect or not.
We got our differences of scales on what Perfect means.
But that's our human scales and ideologies.
what about God?
how does He define Perfect according to the Bible?
If we read the books of Kings and Chronicles, we see that the kings were more or less
assessed by whether or not their hearts were perfect toward God. Of Asa, Jehoshaphat,
Hezekiah, and others, it is said that they had a heart perfect toward God. But the great example of a man whose heart was perfect toward God was David. He was the measuring stick against
which other kings were assessed.
Keep in mind that we are not talking about a heart that is perfect, but a heart that is perfecttoward God.
David was not always morally perfect. As you know, he committed adultery.
Although the Scripture does not condone adultery, it is not here speaking about moral
perfection; rather, it is speaking of David’s attitude toward God.
In Exodus 20:1–3 we find the first requirement for having a heart that is perfect toward
God. “And God spoke all these words, saying, “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out
of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me.”
To be perfect toward God means that one has no other gods before Him. The real issue for David,
and for us, is “Who is your god?”
When we say PERFECT towards God, means it is not defined if you are good by what the people sees, or if you are better than the other by physical eyes and activities.
It means, are you doing what God says is right? Are you doing what is according to God's commands?
So ask yourself..
Who is Your God????

Taming Your Tongue / A Self-control in your Mouth
What does the BIBLE say about our tongues?
is it just normal for you to curse? To speak evil of others..to speak some jokes and override topics that are not real?
do you like to indulge in a talk or in a gossip about certain people?
do you curse your wife..husband, parents friends, God and your boss and colleagues?
Well,honestly I was one of this people before. I've learned to change since I met the Lord Jesus.
Let's see what the bible says about it?

For we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell. ...

You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience. “No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.

Romans 7:1-25 ESV / 48 helpful votes
Or do you not know, brothers—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law is binding on a person only as long as he lives? For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage. Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress. Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. ...

A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tent? Who shall dwell on your holy hill? He who walks blamelessly and does what is right and speaks truth in his heart; who does not slander with his tongue and does no evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his friend; in whose eyes a vile person is despised, but who honors those who fear the Lord; who swears to his own hurt and does not change; who does not put out his money at interest and does not take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

Spiritual Realms Biblical: Sleep Paralysis
This are evil ways and spiritual realms are not for play at all.
Sleep Paralysis are often a significance of your soul being awake and aware in the spirit realm. This shows the existence of God and that you are not just born to the earth to live..to have husband,kids,work education .. to get old and to die. .but merely that when u die, your souls lives and be resurrected..
Job 14:14
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
Your soul will live again..this will not die and live in heaven if you have faith..because Jesus says
" I am the way, the truth and the life, No one comes to the Father except through Me"
John 11:25
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live
But the demons are the one who can kill the soul and body. So its a choice to believe and receive Jesus and the commandments of God. It's individual choice.
Matthew 10:28
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
I have been studying this in the bible and it seems that those who got depression or easy to be stressed are much way for the demons to victimise. They can show you many things and then they can even speak to you.
But whenyou tell it to others, no one will believe you because they have not experienced it or don't know any of it. It is because our enemies are not physically present but their presence can be sensed by your soul.
Science cannot accept the truth of this spirit realm. The devil are trying to steal our joy, and give us fear. It uses your emptiness to remind you the past and the hurt you've been. It will make you guilty.
This activity is about demonic harassment
I had been diagnosed with PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Syndrom. I did not engaged in paralysis sleeping but I experienced almost I couldn't sleep. And I had nightmare and sometimes I can even hear voices. When I tell this to my psychologists, she says it's normal.
Things happened and I had flash backs of my childhood and old stories alike that makes me feel bad. In this section , it will really remind you things you've forgotten. It will condemn you. And even give you nightmares and the hurt is that you feel something is wrong. You feel in your spirit but the effects is upon your earthly body.
The experience is you are half sleep half awake. Please don't try it because it sounds cool. You don't know who you will meet in the spiritual realms.
Try to live in the word of God. Live to stick in the word.
Practice the Spirit of God and live in Spirit and in truth for it gives life eternal.
What does the BIBLE say about... Sleep Paralysis
And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Jude 1:6-7
There were [giants] on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. Genesis 6:4

Husband according to the Lord
Husbands
What are the basic biblical guidelines for husbands? A husband's primary responsibility is to love his wife. It's in the Bible,
Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Love your wives means that you will are gentle to them, tenderhearted and always forgiving and understanding in ALL situations. When you love her, you will always see to it that she is in good condition, Wether physically or emotional.
The portrait of Love is in
1 Corinthians 13 : 4-7
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
So when your wife burned that food, be thankful she can cook and maybe remind her that next time it will be better. Encourage your wives and do not neglect them when they fix themselves for you. But also, take care of your wives that they will learn to dress modestly. Many wives think that for a man to recognised them is to dress so seductive. You know? You have a house, there your wife can dress up however she want. But teach your daughters and wives to dress modestly.
When your wife is tired, it's alright that you also must comfort her and maybe fix a little coffee or snacks for her. Trust her in everything that she does. But if she do something that you disagree with, talk about it in a tender voice. Shouting won't make her calm, you will just make your wife a roaring lion.. hahah..
Husbands should honor their wives. It's in the Bible, I Peter 3:7, 1 Peter 3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered "
Giving honor is to give merit. When they do things in the house, washed the dishes, washed plates or ironed your underwear or washing clothes and taking care of kids, yeah this households stuff. Give them merits, recognised when they changed the curtains or make you a coffee or baked you cookies.
Small things matters, because it is a way that you will not loose contact with your wife.
Honor means honesty, you must be honest In all things Wether finance or things you thought. Do not be afraid to speak out things. Do not be afraid also to accept the views of your wife because together, you will grow and learn from each other.
The definition of Honor:
integrity, honourableness, honesty, uprightness, ethics, morals, morality, principle, (high) principles, righteousness, rectitude, nobility, high-mindedness, right-mindedness, noble-mindedness;
And read again that verse of 1 Peter 3 : 7 that says " being Heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered" that seems to me that one ways your prayers be answered is also to give honor ( honest, respect, kind, right minded, moral minded, )to your wife. You see, the blessings of the Lord are already established in us only if we work that they will bear good fruit.
It says that me as a wife and my husband is already a Heir or a successor or we will inherit the kingdom of God in heaven. We are noble or royal to the Lord. So if my husband helps me in my weaknesses, teach me so I can change my bad attitudes. It means that all our prayers will be fulfilled.. can you see the connections in being a good husband?
As a husband, you have a role to lead your wives to Lord. You must lead your family to the faith that teaches a good social and moral character. Make a day and spend time with your family. There are many things in the bible you can share and teach your family. I promise you, that the words of God is filled with empowerment and blessings and love and compassion. God's portrait of Husband and Wife is a God's character of relationships and good moral conduct.
When you have God with you, you will know how to treat and lead your family, and you will know how to be a good example even to your friends.
Husbands should provide for their families. It's in the Bible, "And whoever does not provide for relatives, and especially for family members, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever." 1 Timothy 5:8 (NRSV)
Never neglect the needs of your family. Your wife has her needs, Wether physically or sexually you must give it to her. If your wife needs your help, help her in all you can without grudges or complaints, be willing to help for when you help her, you also are helping yourselves. Remember when you are married, you are OF ONE FLESH..
Provide the needs of your children or when relatives needs help, Wether yours or your wives, you also need to help, only if you can or in many ways that you can.
Husbands should not be dismayed because they are young.It's in the Bible, "Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12 (NRSV)
Not because you are a young man means you are to be quiet. Of course not. You must speak, but when you speak, make sure that your words are filled with kindness and compassion. That your words are not harming others. Share your good thoughts to your friends whom also are married for you will learn a lot and they also will learn how to live a Successful marriage Under God's words and under the faith we all have through Jesus Christ..

The Names of the Lord according to the Scriptures
.. by the knowledge of the Spirit of God, the name of the Lord is written even in hebrew and different languages..here they are. I will only answer thee by what is written in the scriptures. Without theologies and ideology, I will share what I have learned.from hebrew and other
El Shaddai (Lord God Almighty)
El Elyon (The Most High God)
Adonai (Lord, Master)
Yahweh (Lord, Jehovah)
Jehovah Nissi (The Lord My Banner)
Jehovah-Raah (The Lord My Shepherd)
Jehovah Rapha (The Lord That Heals)
Jehovah Shammah (The Lord Is There)
Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord Our Righteousness)

El Olam (The Everlasting God)
Elohim (God)
Qanna (Jealous)
Jehovah Jireh (The Lord Will Provide)
Jehovah Shalom (The Lord Is Peace)
Jehovah Sabaoth (The Lord of Hosts)
EL, ELOAH:God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Genesis 7:1;Isaiah 9:6) – etymologically,Elappears to mean “power,” as in “I have the power to harm you” (Genesis 31:29).Elis associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of might remains.
ELOHIM:God “Creator, Mighty and Strong” (Genesis 17:7;Jeremiah 31:33) – the plural form ofEloah, which accommodates the doctrine of the Trinity. From the Bible’s first sentence, the superlative nature of God’s power is evident as God (Elohim) speaks the world into existence (Genesis 1:1).
EL SHADDAI:“God Almighty,” “The Mighty One of Jacob” (Genesis 49:24;Psalm 132:2,5) – speaks to God’s ultimate power over all.
ADONAI:“Lord” (Genesis 15:2;Judges 6:15) – used in place of YHWH, which was thought by the Jews to be too sacred to be uttered by sinful men. In the Old Testament, YHWH is more often used in God’s dealings with His people, whileAdonaiis used more when He deals with the Gentiles.
YHWH / YAHWEH / JEHOVAH:“LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4;Daniel 9:14) – strictly speaking, the only proper name for God. Translated in English Bibles “LORD” (all capitals) to distinguish it fromAdonai, “Lord.” The revelation of the name is first given to Moses “I Am who I Am” (Exodus 3:14). This name specifies an immediacy, a presence. Yahweh is present, accessible, near to those who call on Him for deliverance (Psalm 107:13), forgiveness (Psalm 25:11) and guidance (Psalm 31:3).
YAHWEH-JIREH:"The Lord Will Provide" (Genesis 22:14) – the name memorialized by Abraham when God provided the ram to be sacrificed in place of Isaac.
YAHWEH-RAPHA:"The Lord Who Heals" (Exodus 15:26) – “I am Jehovah who heals you” both in body and soul. In body, by preserving from and curing diseases, and in soul, by pardoning iniquities.
YAHWEH-NISSI:"The Lord Our Banner" (Exodus 17:15), wherebanneris understood to be a rallying place. This name commemorates the desert victory over the Amalekites inExodus 17.
YAHWEH-M'KADDESH:"The Lord Who Sanctifies, Makes Holy" (Leviticus 20:8;Ezekiel 37:28) – God makes it clear that He alone, not the law, can cleanse His people and make them holy.
YAHWEH-SHALOM:"The Lord Our Peace" (Judges 6:24) – the name given by Gideon to the altar he built after the Angel of the Lord assured him he would not die as he thought he would after seeing Him.
YAHWEH-ELOHIM:"LORD God" (Genesis 2:4;Psalm 59:5) – a combination of God’s unique name YHWH and the generic “Lord,” signifying that He is the Lord of Lords.
YAHWEH-TSIDKENU:"The Lord Our Righteousness” (Jeremiah 33:16) – As with YHWH-M’Kaddesh, it is God alone who provides righteousness to man, ultimately in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ, who became sin for us “that we might become the Righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).
YAHWEH-ROHI:"The Lord Our Shepherd" (Psalm 23:1) – After David pondered his relationship as a shepherd to his sheep, he realized that was exactly the relationship God had with him, and so he declares, “Yahweh-Rohi is my Shepherd. I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1).
YAHWEH-SHAMMAH:"The Lord Is There” (Ezekiel 48:35) – the name ascribed to Jerusalem and the Temple there, indicating that the once-departed glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 8—11) had returned (Ezekiel 44:1-4).
YAHWEH-SABAOTH:"The Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 1:24;Psalm 46:7) –Hostsmeans “hordes,” both of angels and of men. He is Lord of the host of heaven and of the inhabitants of the earth, of Jews and Gentiles, of rich and poor, master and slave. The name is expressive of the majesty, power, and authority of God and shows that He is able to accomplish what He determines to do.
EL ELYON:“Most High" (Deuteronomy 26:19) – derived from the Hebrew root for “go up” or “ascend,” so the implication is of that which is the very highest.El Elyondenotes exaltation and speaks of absolute right to lordship.
EL ROI:"God of Seeing" (Genesis 16:13) – the name ascribed to God by Hagar, alone and desperate in the wilderness after being driven out by Sarah (Genesis 16:1-14). When Hagar met the Angel of the Lord, she realized she had seen God Himself in a theophany. She also realized thatEl Roisaw her in her distress and testified that He is a God who lives and sees all.
EL-OLAM:"Everlasting God" (Psalm 90:1-3) – God’s nature is without beginning or end, free from all constraints of time, and He contains within Himself the very cause of time itself. “From everlasting to everlasting, You are God.”
EL-GIBHOR:“Mighty God” (Isaiah 9:6) – the name describing the Messiah, Christ Jesus, in this prophetic portion of Isaiah. As a powerful and mighty warrior, the Messiah, the Mighty God, will accomplish the destruction of God’s enemies and rule with a rod of iron (Revelation 19:15).

The Sexual Immorality
Nowadays, the homosexuality or Sexual orientation of a person has become more rampant, and also sexually immoral people is more and more now. When I was Young, I used to laugh at these people. But now that I am grown up, I feel so bad that they seem to be not happy for who they are, and they have given themselves into sin.
Have you ever been thinking about the rainbow colors in the times of Noah?I have the thoughts since the homosexuality arise with the flag similar to the color of the rainbow.
Would it be that the prophecy in there are big captions..
Just LIKE IN THE DAYS OF NOAH..
Just saying. Or might be the devil uses this colors to trigger the people in faith to show where the people stands. Just like as it says, there will be people departing from faith
Matthew 24:10/
At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,
Matther 24:24: For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. (I Think also that people of the Lord who support sin and abomination are false prophets.)
1 Timothy 4:1
The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
But the rainbow also reminds the Lord that He will not once again sweep the world with flood..
Maybe the fires of heaven will rain..
Genesis 9:12-17
And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:
13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”
17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.”
- Therefore, the Rainbow is to a sign or a reminder for the Lord to not sweep the Earth with great flood as it was in the Days of Noah.but with this things, it is also reminds us that in the Days of Noah, No one were found good in the sight of the Lord, for everyone was busy fulfilling their own benefits and filling their own lusts. everyone was eating, drinking, given to marriage and busy in business affairs. until the day of the flood comes. The flood also can be compaired to many kind of calamities and tragedies in Life. The flood comes and no one was ready, and even though there came a Messenger to save them, they were hardened and gave themselves to what they wanted.
As of this Days, when we share of the gospel, many are very hard hearted. many are thinking they do not need God. so well, even if they knew some things are forbidden and abomination, still they are willing to test things that are immoral.
But i agree that the devil is a Copycat. in all its ways, he is a deceiver. making things to look like appropriate because he wouldnt want to be alone in the fire of hell.
Sexually immorality is not just the big CAPTIONS of SIN but one of them all..
in Revelations 21:8
8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
Revelation 22:15
15 Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
Let me give you a Little bit of Testimony;
Before I became a real Christian, I also had a part of the sins of the World. I did not deny myself into all the stuff that a person does in their stupidity. I use to party, drinking, gossips, liar, sexually immoral because i had boyfriends, i liked magic then, I get angry easily, in small things. I am bitter when things go wrong.I swear towards heavens, and I drag the name of the Lord like Oh my .... you know.. those expressions, Deuteronomy 5:11 You shall not take the name of the Lord Your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
Its like when I fall into stairs and I would scream a friends name, that would be very delicate coz its not friends fault but mine that I am not careful in the stairs.
I didnt know that it was bad. Bear with me in a Little while. And I also tried different things, druguse and many blah blah..
this happened because one, I did not care what my parents says. and I did not care about what others says. I thought it was cool to do stuff, I thought it was fun, I never thought it was a very serious thing I do against God. so to make it clear, I was sinner.
I became REAL CHRISTIAN in 2010. So now, I am totally changed.
I became afraid of the judgement day. I never knew what prophecy is and I can't either see if this is a prophecy but as I have read the bible, it pass through me that the rainbow contains 7 colors.
The homosexual flag is 6. How come they imitate it and the person who though of the picture must have known what he does.
The situation is just like in the days of Noah.. where people engaged in eating drinking, marrying and all the business affairs and it's same in our days.
While the days of Noah contains more of worldly and material awareness, the days of Sodom and Gomorra is filled with lust and leaving the nature of birth to please themselves. To fill the emptiness in heart and to find where they belong.
All things, I have thought of. It's just now I dared to share it.
Please show your love even to them because one moment we place anger for their behaviour will cause us to fall in fire and brimstone.
never forget, we are one of the very elect.
be careful in everything we say and do. If that's what they do, be separated from them because
in
Isaiah 5:20
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
I dreamed or almost like in my thoughts they were real. The fireballs came from heaven burning those who are sexually immoral and it looks real to me.
I'm so scared so I hide under the blanket. Luckily I fall asleep, but I still remember when I woke up. Lol. I became more afraid..
I believe it is.. could you understand what I say?

My Innermost Prayer
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)
Thank You Lord Almighty for my Life, my breath in every minute. Thank you Lord for waking me up every morning, for giving me the chance to live and spend my life with my husband and my kids. Thank you Lord for your kindness that you trust me whenever I am awake, that your love overflow because I can see, I can speak, I can hear, I can love, I can walk, I can feel. Lord this are my senses that you have blessed me upon. How glorious you are my Lord God and my Lord Jesus. Thank you for my children, you have provided them good health, good parents, good friends and most of all you provide them your knowledge that surpasses all. Thank you Lord that you showed my children what real love is. Not the love of the world, but the love that comes from you.
Thank you for my marriage, I love the way my husband is created, your potters hand really describes your character, oh God. I found favor in your sight that I have found a man that loves you Lord Jesus. I am grateful for your thoughts about me are abundant like the sands, your mercy and grace towards us are as huge as the heavens.
Thank you Lord for the people that passed my life, who became my history. They have been my tests and it taught me to be more closer to you and to still forgive them. Those times of pain and sufferings, were the times of storms where you held my hand and held me.
Thank you Lord for the difficult times and poverty, you have taught me how to be merciful to my fellow poor people. Thank you Lord that I came from a poor people, I know how to fix my feet in the ground and share blessing to those who have none.
Thank you Lord, I don't need to worry about my basic needs.they are right in front of me.
Thank you Lord for the people who didn't liked me, because they taught me how to trust in you and I've learned to understand that it matters most that you loved me and my family.
Thank you Lord for forgiveness, you have taught me that I also can forgive my enemies and the people that hurt me.
I hope Lord, that my life is a living testimony to those who know me. I hope that my life is a blessing to those that shaked my hands.
Father in Heaven, Lord God Almighty,
I pray that you would guard our hearts to be kind and loving to everyone in our lives, even to those whom have hurt us. Show us how to be merciful to those who are in the world. And cloth us with your dignity and character that we may show them how you have changed our lives.
Bring us into your ways Lord. Give us the understanding that we may find joy and Prosperity in thy sight. Teach us to be led by your truth.
I thank you for every of my friends, to those who believe in you
And even to those who do not yet believe. I pray that they would find their way to you, as you give them chance in their breath everyday.
Let your will be done in every people's lives. Touch their hearts and minds that they would recognise your voice when you call them.
In Jesus name..
AMEN..
