In God’s kingdom there is no class division


In God’s kingdom there is no class division.
We are not separated by some human decision.
We all are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ we all are children of God by His sacrifice.
He died to free us from the consequences of our sins for us He paid our price.
There is no separation of rich from poor.
All believers are permitted through His door.
There is no separation from the color of human skin or from the different languages we speak. In God’s eyes we are all family we are all kin.
There is no difference from the highly schooled or the common man.
Wisdom from God given to us all is in God’s plan.
There is no difference of political views, because we have one King who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords Jesus is his name.
And our faith in him is all the same.
We all are rich, because we all are joint-heirs with Christ  to the wealth of God’s kingdom by adoption into the family of God through the sacrifice of the Lamb of God as atonement for our sins.
You see in God’s kingdom there is no separation between winners and losers, because with God everyone wins.
My first vote in this election is for my King because I know that He will do the right thing.
All these candidates are in God’s power and I know that He will appoint the right person for this hour.

Ps. 75:7 But God is the Judge; He puts down one, and exalts another.

Why do some have and some have not?


Throughout my many years there is one question that has bothered me a lot.

Why do some have and some have not? Why do some have little and others have more?

Is it the rich who hinder the poor? Or did they just happen to go through the wrong door?

But another question enters my mind. Why are some cruel and others so kind?

Why do so many of the poor having less they are willing to share? While the wealthy enlarge their greed and turn away from helping those in need. They harden their hearts as if they don’t care.

As I ponder and search for an answer between the two I am still left without a clue.

I look in the Holy Bible and what do I see? In bold black letters the answer standing out to me.

If I am to be wealthy I must realize that it is from Almighty God my riches I will get.

Seeking first for wisdom I must never forget.

1 Kings 3:5-14

King James Version (KJV5 In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.

6 And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.

7 And now, O Lord my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.

8 And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.

9 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?

10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;

12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.

14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.
