What Kind Of Fan Are You?

September 27, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Have you ever noticed how many of the fans in the stands of a hockey game rise up during a fight? Have you ever noticed how many fans in Nascar tend to be waiting on a wreck as the race intensifies? Have you ever noticed how many reporters are waiting on something juicy to report in the news that tears someone down instead of lifting someone up? Or, have you ever witnessed someone when climbing a mountain with God how many people stand around waiting on the fall instead of encouraging them to reach their call?

There is a spiritual lesson behind all of this when we open up our eyes to look beyond the moment to receive the overall message. First off all we must recognize that this battle here is not against flesh and blood but spiritual powers beyond the human eye. As we recognize that Satan is here to steal, kill, and destroy and begin to break everything down to simply good and evil then we can discover the spirits which often guide our actions.

As the crowd chanted for the crucifixion of Jesus we can witness within many hockey games the chant for a fight. As we listen to the crowds at Nascar speaking of a wreck we can witness life and death in the tongue. Like the reporters who want to crucify an individual instead of reporting something that will lift someone up. The same spirit of jealousy or disbelief often waits at the bottom to pounce on someone as they fall. What is wrong with this picture? God’s Word teaches us that everything that is good is of God and everything that is bad is of the devil. Don’t miss this spiritual message and if you find yourself sitting around waiting on someone to fall maybe you are the one missing God’s call…

He Died For Us To Live…

September 26, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Mark 15:16 The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace and called together the whole company of soldiers. 17 They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. 18 And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” 19 Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.

Before some of you get upset about the statement of Jesus dying please recall that I am speaking of His physical death which brings us spiritual life. As I am completing another study on the life of Christ it broke my heart this morning to read this scripture in Mark 15 and see how cruel humanity is without God. The Lord has shown me how humans are nothing more than cannibalistic animals without His Word and His spirit of peace. As you think about animals there are many different types, some that show their teeth and some that are in disguise. The ones which are in disguise are the ones that pose the most danger and this is why it wise to have the discernment between good and evil. For without your senses in tune then you never know what lies around the corner or who could be standing by your side….

God Is Speaking…Who Is Listening?

September 24, 2011 by admin 1 Comment

Throughout the Living Word of God the Lord speaks to us through the Holy Spirit in order to warn us and to help prepare us for what is ahead. The Lord has given us His Word which still stands today in order to receive the blessings of God but when the people disobey God without recognition of our generational sins and continue to drift away from God’s Word then we better prepare for the inevitable.

In the lesson of Acts 27 with Paul in the ship during a storm there is much more to this than just a story of Paul’s life when you open your eyes in the Spirit of God. Look at his faith and how nothing would stop him from going forward. Look at how the men of the ship began to listen to him when their lives were in danger. If you recall in the first verses of Acts 27 the officers would not listen to Paul because they were stuck in this world and they only followed the captain which they could physically see  because they did not know how to stand on their own and properly believe. But once the trouble came then whom did they seek for advice? Can you see this relation to America today? Where is America looking at the present time? Are we looking for physical or spiritual answer’s?

Why is it we by nature won’t listen until it is almost too late? It is sad at how shallow we are in the flesh but amazing at how the depth’s never stop in the Spirit of God! We must remember whom was cast down to earth and the Creator in Heaven above.  For if we can’t see beyond our world and become stuck in our way’s without listening to the Holy Spirit of God in our hearts then our vision is being restricted by the evil one whom travels this earth in never wanting us to see our way home.

Vision in faith is not limited but only by our human restraints. For in the vision of God we always receive what we need as we seek Him daily within our walk of human life. He will show us goals to reach but we must do the work to get there and allow Him to bring our goals together in His timing and not ours. In the flesh of man we all want something now, like Eve in the Garden of Eden and America today. But we must learn in the lesson’s of life from our ancestor’s in the Holy Bible to our present day issue’s to recognize our human weakness in the flesh to build our individual character on the foundation of God and not on our personal desires!

There will be storm’s in our path with major rock’s up ahead if we don’t listen to the Word of God and follow His instruction in giving us the direction back to the kingdom. The Lord gives us the beginning and the end from Genesis to Revelation with the instruction in the middle but we must do the work in between this time period to help other’s along the Way! Our life begins with Genesis and ends in Revelation and as a book our life story is told in the middle. Looking at your life how will you be remembered from your physical birth to your physical death because this has a major impact on your eternal future.…In Jesus name we all can live!!! Amen

An Inner Spring of Love…

September 23, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Love is like water in a pond and if we are not careful to keep our water flowing then we could allow our pond to become stagnant. There are two parts in life that we must recognize to keep our love in balance and one is our input as well as the other is our output. For one without the other allows our ponds to become cloudy and even to the point that we could miss some vital nutrients which is given in needed time.

If you ever study a pond compare it to yourself to insure the natural springs which feed you internally and double check yourself to insure that your love is flowing to someone else. Because the last thing that any loving individual should want, is for their life to become cloudy to the point that they can not see and to become stagnant to the point that others might fail to believe…amen

The River of God…

September 22, 2011 by admin 1 Comment

As we align ourselves in the river of God there is a main channel that can be heard. Within this channel there is a natural flow in the spirit which can carry us to our destination. There are no worries within this channel when we know that we are in the hand of our Creator who honors His Word as we obey His command. The object is to recognize the obstacles in the path and learn to allow God to move them out of the way to reach our destiny in life through the love of Jesus Christ.

There is a peace beyond understanding in the river of God and the more we learn to flow within His will instead of our own this allows us to see things from another perspective. For within this perspective of God is where we discover our purpose…

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…
