Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.
I am not saying this out of need, for I have learned to be content regardless of my circumstances.
Not that I speak as to destitution, for I have learned to be content in that which I am.
Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
PHILIPPIANS 4:11
God is soverign over everything. We don't
have a need with him, for the above says everything in the verse.
Dosn't matter what state someone lives in.
The states, towns, countrys, nations, dwell
on an imperfect earth, in heaven there is the
perfection and no need to be in want
It's not the state, it's the state of mind.

Oh yes let's praise our Lord And Savior Jesus and Thank him for his love for us.
Paul and Silas praised at the dark midnight hour in Prison. Cold, hungry, but God who we worship sent an angel and those doors were opened, and even the prison guards believed, when they saw the miracle. Not as doubting Thomas who saw The Lord with him, doubted that he rose from death.
This is declaring that we put on the garments of praise to our savior. Those garment must be so so beautiful, only The Lord God could make something so beautiful, we don't see them with our natural eye, but we see the Holy Spirit as he moves in other's as they sing, praise in their worship.
We are like the trees, Strong, and very vibrant, and productive, bearing leaves, and fruits.
The garment of Praise. Must be very beautiful, as we enter into his courts with Thanksgiving, and with Praise.
Hallelujah!
Do not be entangled into the bitter roots. bv.
Bitterness like a root can grow in people for years, and keep on growing. It takes supernatural intervention to pull and cut them out, " The holy spirit is like that, the word cuts asunder between the soul, and the spirit. I believe the emotions are the soul, the things that happen in life affects the spirit." This is the power of the HOly Spirit.
Strife is one way to get entangled, in someone's bitterness. Your own un forgiveness, is another way, and offenses, hurts, everything sours, when your bitter, not sweet.

You should declare "Equal Time!" and then counter with quotes from God's Word (the Lord will fill your mouth with what to say... if you wait on Him in yo prayer closet and ask Him for what He wants said).
Of course these mad people will think you are nuts, but what else is new???
Seriously, sometime ya gotta exercise yo rights to free speeches and counter the garbage with a good word from the Lord, and no they won't like it but who cars???... you're not the one acting like a jacka....er... donkey

[h=1]God Has Not Given Us A Spirit Of Fear[/h]
[FONT="]For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV[/FONT]
[FONT="]The great hindrance of usefulness in the increase of our gifts is slavish fear. Paul therefore warns Timothy against this. It was through base fear that the evil servant buried his talent, and did not trade with it, Matthew 25:25. Now God hath therefore armed us against the spirit of fear, by often bidding us fear not. "Fear not the face of man; fear not the dangers you may meet with in the way of your duty.’’ God hath delivered us from the spirit of fear, and hath given us the spirit of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. The spirit of power, or of courage and resolution to encounter difficulties and dangers;—the spirit of love to God, which will carry us through the opposition we may meet with, as Jacob made nothing of the hard service he was to endure for Rachel: the spirit of love to God will set us above the fear of man, and all the hurt that a man can do us;—and the spirit of a sound mind, or quietness of mind, a peaceable enjoyment of ourselves, for we are oftentimes discouraged in our way and work by the creatures o our own fancy and imagination, which a sober, solid, thinking mind would obviate, and would easily answer.The spirit God gives to his ministers is not a fearful, but a courageous spirit; it is a spirit of power, for they speak in his name who has all power, both in heaven and earth; and it is a spirit of love, for love to God and the souls of men must inflame ministers in all their service; and it is a spirit of a sound mind, for they speak the words of truth and soberness. - Matthew Henry
