Making it happen for others.
This involves giving, meeting their needs, taking time to talk with them on what concerns them, helping them out at home, on their jobs, at school, looking out for them.
But again, we show how much we care about people when we talk to their maker about them. When we decree blessings upon them, when we pray.
Many times, I pray and talk to God about people whom I don't even know. I see a grown man driving a school bus, hes sad, doesn't feel like he's happy, maybe he has issues at home, maybe he needs another job, and i just talk to God about it.
Have a friend who just got in a new relationship and I start speaking the blessings in my quiet corner, a friend is celebrating their birthday and even though you have gifts to offer, you just bless them and keep blessing them.
I believe that God smiles when we decree blessings on others as if we ourselves dont need them. Sometimes when we pray for people, we may be tempted to say "Hey! I just spoke out all the blessings for a perfect life on someone else"
But know today that God is not unfaithful. He's the only one who can truly judge intentions, He is pleased when you care for others even when they are not aware. God loves a cheerful giver. So be not weary in well-doing (Galatians 6:9).
He is God, He knows what you need. And even if you find out (however possible that is) that no one else is praying for you like you pray for others, realize that you're already connected to the source, to the one people pray to, to God.
And I know that what you make happen for others, God will make happen for you. Hebrews 6:10 "God is not unrighteous..."

Let this mind be in you...
Back from church...
let me seeeee, I dont think the real deal is in making heaven, I think its abt reflecting Christ and showing His love while here on earth.
There's a reason y Jesus said Thy Kingdom come, there's a reason y we're not in heaven now.
Its easy to do everything wrong that u want to do & wish for a terminal illness so u can make peace with God before you die 'just in case hell exists'.. but wat if d death is instant...
Christianity isnt fire proof or fire insurance, its more than showing "yay me!!! I'm in Christ" but its an attitude that consciously reflects "Christ is in me"
...so, Phil 4:8 if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.
Only true believers will be with God in heaven. YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE UP YOUR MIND .. Phil 2:12 "...work out your salvation with fear&trembling"
