Steps Of Faith

August 31, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 In life we all take steps of faith whether we know it or not. As a child we walk in steps of faith relying on those to properly guide us in love and as we mature we are to leave that umbrella that is held up by others to learn how to hold one up on our own. In business we take steps of faith in trusting that those around us will do their jobs in order to fulfill the service or product that we may provide.

 One of the most important things to ever confirm is that God is in front of the steps that we take to insure the path that we are on. For when God is not the one guiding our direction then our steps of faith become steps in the flesh and these steps are destined to fall…

There Is Liberty & Freedom With God

August 30, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 In this life we may face many injustices and things which we do not understand. We may even be falsely accused or misunderstood by our family and friends. There will be times that we may feel unappreciated for the love that we show and times that our ideas may be completely ignored. But there is one thing that we all should remember and that is to praise God in the days that we are given for He sees and remembers all the good that we do.

 It is up to the Lord to decide the timing and the appropriateness of our rewards. Because if we do not put our trust in Him to vindicate us in His timing and not our own then we are setting ourselves up spiritually for Satan to take us down in hatred or in self pity. It is vital to recognize that our rewards do not come in this life for the ones that we receive here are only the blessings that God gives with the intentions for us to bless others.

 When we learn to place our trust in the Lord is when we can begin to experience the peace that comes only from God. Not only will we experience this peace but God will also set us free from the worries of how others may perceive us when we learn in whom to believe. This is true freedom and liberty that is only given by God and can not be achieved by man…amen

Are You Feeling Pressured?

August 27, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in the flesh to measure ourselves through our accomplishments in the world but in the Kingdom of God true greatness is determined by the level of service that we provide to others. Spiritually Satan is very active in our achievements because he knows how we tend to forget who got us to where we are and how we tend to compare ourselves to the standards of the world. Another reason that Satan is very active in this area is because he knows the weakness in our human nature when we allow the pressures of achieving a goal to rob us of who we are or who we can be.

 Pressures often cause us to make wrong decisions, fall into depression, and they even increase our anxieties when we do not know how to trust in God. For there is no pressure with God but only peace in knowing that if it is in the Lords will then it will come to pass in His timing and not in ours. If you are feeling pressured today I challenge you to take a step back and ask God to give you the peace that you need to understand where you are. For when we understand where we are is when we can begin to plan for where we are going…amen

Fill Your Life With Purpose

August 26, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 A relationship with God changes a meaningless life into a life with spiritual productivity and purpose. For when we live for ourselves there is a void of emptiness and dissatisfaction that we try to fill with things of this world that only last for a little while. There is nothing on this earth that can compare to a relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ and when we begin to seek the Lord’s will for our life then He will begin to show us the Way…amen

To Care Requires Time & Attention

August 25, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

  It is very easy to find daily reminders that help encourage us in this negative world but if we are not careful to seek the Creator then we could be setting ourselves up to be left behind. It is in our human nature to be lazy and to rely on others to help carry us forward and until we learn to build our own relationship with God through the love of Jesus Christ then how can we learn to stand on our own?

 The Lord wants each one of us to discover who we really are in Christ and to recognize our purpose in order to help others along the Way. Each one of us are very special to God and He has given each of us a special task to allow His unconditional love to touch every one in our path. Life is a beautiful thing when we begin to look at it through the eyes of the Lord and realize that we are only temporary caretakers over what He has given.

 When we begin to look at our life as a caretaker this helps us to look at things in a new light in order to take better care of ourselves and everything else around us. For when we care about who we are and care about what we do then the love of God will always shine through…amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
