3 keys

there are many promises on earth
promises you make between friends
promises from parents
promises from other stuff and so on

But

did you know God also has promises for us?
These promises and rewards
It is up to us to unlock them and claim them

We take for granted
to have all the wonderful promises
just because we are Christians.
If you think that way, its time to wake up.

Open your eyes,
open your heart,
listen.

there are ways to unlock to claim the promises God has made for us,
to gain the rewards that He has provided.

To do that there are 3 task,
3 keys

1) generous giving
share what you have, help others, but don't brag about it.
theres no need to let the whole world know the good deeds your doing.
Let God himself know, and thats enough.

2)Powerful prayer
Pray silently, consistently.
There's no need to do it in front of an audience, putting in flowery words and posing a look of total piousness when doing it.
Do it with a sincere heart, and that's enough.

3)Faithful fasting
Fast, not necessarily on food. But on the stuff like watching TV or playing the internet, that's fasting too.
and you needn't tell anybody else
you needn't put on the tortured look on your face
Just let God know, and that's enough.

now you have 3 keys
its up to you to unlock the promises and rewards God has made for us.
