For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord know the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's; whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your's; and you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

What is really foolish? It is believing as the world believes, that you should be conformed to the thinking and reasoning that is of this world. The same thing with when you first started to pray, when you receive the Lord Jesus as your personal Savior. When you prayed and you heard for the first time, "you are praying to yourself." Then the voice or feeling said again, "you are not saved yet, or not saved at all"; then later you started knowing that it would be an effect on you if you listen to it. But you held on to what God spoke to you and the knowing at the first that God did something for you. And it got better with time as you went. Why do you think people don't believe what is going on with you? It is because they never knew it themselves, and they doubt it, but when you get the results, then everyone will believe and might suppose that it was the world's system that did it for you. So that is why they say "I will believe it, when I see it." And that is not how it is with the righteous or the just, because the fact is the just shall live by faith. You can't get around it, It is written...Amen. They say "Good Luck" which means you will not make it. But it is not luck, that I am saved. Because the cross saved my wretched soul, and I must take up my cross and follow the Lord, for if I save my life I will lose it, and if I love anyone of these more than Him, I am not worthy of Him...Amen. Be you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers...working side by side. Thank you God for having patience with me, and allowing me to choose in due time, and standing by my side through it all, loving me through my decisions..My Holy God, Jesus Christ!
♫ You were there all the time, You were there all the time,
Waiting patiently in line, You were there all the time.♫
That little thing that you have disregarded, is the thing that you and God together has worked on, the world looks at the success of the thing before it is accomplished..But then there is a increase..it took a small thing like as a grain of mustard seed..to make a great tree, that even you can lodge in the branches of it. The distraction of this world is your biggest obstacle; Ask yourself why is there a distraction? So you will forget something that has been already accomplished and is waiting for you to take a stand in. Yes, You are needed in this world, but you are not aware of it, this is the obstacle, that they (demonic interference) want you to serve the world, instead of serving your God, which you are determined to do. That small thing is not worldly, the lust of the eyes is worldly. I am not talking to one particular person, but to the Body of Christ, because that is where I dwell...Amen. "All Businesses came from a thought" -- Now unto God that is able to do exceeding, abundantly, above all that you ask or think according to the power that is working within you..Amen.
