Stay connected Spiritual Intelligence An offense in the church 23 Jul. 2018 “Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!” Matthew 18:7 Inasmuch as a scandal may affect a church (a group of non-converted and converted people), it will never affect the Church (those who are born of God). Notice the two “woes” in […] view more >> Have an attitude of “Enough is enough!” 21 Jun. 2018 Enough waiting for other people’s help. Enough complaining about life when you don’t do anything to change your situation. Enough being held hostage to the goodwill or evil of others. Enough! Confront your problems yourself! You are strong! If people deceive you, don’t be one more in the crowd: stop deceiving yourself- and others. Never […] view more >> Who are you to judge another’s servant? 18 May. 2018 How is it possible that one who has the Holy Spirit and has received an anointing from God to save others can be so callous, intolerant, cruel and merciless? Maybe you say, “No, that isn’t possible!” But I tell you that it is. This is exactly what you become when you judge someone. Regardless of […] view more >> Does practice lead to perfection? 14 May. 2018 NOT ALL PRACTICE leads to perfection. Only the practice of things fundamentally correct will lead to a good result. You can practice, with all you’ve got, the wrong things. In this case, all you will ever achieve is becoming an expert in making mistakes. In order to be successful, make sure what you are doing […] view more >> There will always be someone who does this to you… 04 May. 2018 It does not matter how you choose to live – if you marry or if you stay single; if you have kids or if you choose not too; if you are a vegetarian or a meat eater; if you become the CEO of your own company or if you choose to work for others. Whatever […] view more >> My father came to the church with a gun 13 Apr. 2018 In 1989, my father came to the Universal Church with a gun around his waist. He wanted to kill the pastor who had “brainwashed” me. He did not understand at the time that thanks to that “brainwashing”, I overcame the desire to die and I was able to forgive him for having cheated on my […] view more >> How to pray when you don’t feel like it 16 Mar. 2018 Sometimes I do not feel like praying – and I am a bishop. It’s normal; the human being is very inconsistent. One day you feel you can conquer the world, the next, you don’t even want to be in it. Feelings. If we live by them, we are lost. Thank God there is an alternative: […] view more >> Working hard while you wait 02 Feb. 2018 “Be strong, and He will strengthen your heart, all you who wait for the Lord.” – Psalm 31:24 Contrary to what it seems, waiting on God is not about having a passive attitude. It requires effort, perseverance; an internal fight against negative thoughts and an external one against the problems that try to make us […] view more >> How do you form your opinions? 02 Feb. 2018 IT’S EASY TO STAND by the side of someone who only told their side of the story. Every story has two sides. Only those who are naïve, foolish or impulsive believe the first thing they hear. They form an entire opinion having only half the facts. People who use their intelligence thoroughly, try to […] view more >> As the year begins, it is good to know: 17 Jan. 2018 1. Whether good or bad, your current circumstances are temporary. 2. Success is temporary. 3. Failure is temporary. 4. Your future depends on your choices. 5. Your choices depend on what you believe. 6. What you believe is not determined by what you see and hear, but by how you interpret what you see and hear. 7.
