Tests Of God Strengthens Our Faith…

March 28, 2011 by admin 1 Comment

 When faced with a difficult decision don’t allow impatience to drive you to disobey God. When you know what God wants in your life then follow His plan regardless of the consequences . God often uses delays to test our obedience and patience but far too often we struggle to trust God when we feel our resources are slipping away.  

 The Lord tells us that He will never leave us nor forsake us and His Word is always proven true. Sometimes the very  things that we feel slipping away happen for a reason and the object is to recognize the season. For some things we think we need are not what we need and sometimes what we try to hold on to is the very thing that God is trying to show us that we need to let go of. 

 When we learn how to let go of the side of the boat and place our trust totally in Him with our eyes upon Jesus is when God will teach us how to walk on water and reach the other side. Too many times we scramble for the side of the boat simply because we do not know how to let it go…

    First, you need to insure your purpose and your hearts desire. Then you must be prepared to wait as you continue to work on your site. Blogging like anything else is like planting a seed that is to grow one day into a tree. The tree takes time to develop and during the growth you will discover the purpose of pruning along with the need for fertile soil with plenty of water. Sometimes we try areas that get away from our roots and this is wise to understand. Then as the tree develops you will find there will be other birds to come. Some birds will be like woodpeckers aggravating with every peck while there will be others birds that will land for a while. Don’t ever be discouraged in your development of something new as long as you know God is directing your steps. For then it won’t matter if other birds come or not because as long as we are doing what do for the glory of God then everthing else is just a blessing along the Way…

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…
