The Trickery of Satan

March 21, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever been at a point where you felt as if you could not trust someone and that you had to watch every move they made? Did you ever feel like if you missed something that it would be the very moment that something might take place? Spiritually Satan works in our minds with distrust because he knows how it can rob us and in-prison our spiritual being.

 When we have lack of trust this displays our spiritual immaturity and it can lead to a controlling spirit. Within this controlling spirit Satan will try to misguide us in our  human efforts instead of understanding the true meaning of love.If you are holding on to something in distrust then you are allowing Satan to spiritually rob you of the blessings that could be right around the corner.

  Jesus knew that Judas was a thief and Jesus knew that Peter would deny Him but did He allow this to detour His love or distract Him from the mission? Jesus plainly taught us Psalm 118:8 in placing our trust in God instead of placing confidence in man. When we learn how to place our trust in God is when the Lord will bring down the spiritual walls of Satan that restrict us from the blessings of God….

Seek God’s Approval & Not Man’s

March 16, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Today many people try to justify their wrong actions by outward signs of success. They think that wealth, popularity or lack of suffering  is an indication that evil and earthly success can go hand in hand. Success  doesn’t indicate God’s approval. Don’t allow personal success  to become a measuring rod of whether or not you are pleasing God.

 This lesson is taught in 2 Kings 14 for those of you that are seeking confirmation in God’s Word….

Does Your Life Have Purpose?

March 14, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Some people invest all their energy in pursuit of money, success, possessions or a career. If these idols were taken away only an empty shell would be found. The only way to protect yourself against such loss is to invest your life in the living God whom you can never lose. The Lord teaches us to help others and when we help someone else in true love then we are investing back in the Kingdom of God. 

 Have you considered your investment in the Kingdom or are you too busy trying to hang on to what you temporarily have here on Earth? Don’t allow Satan to spiritually misguide you in greed or in chasing false idols because in the end you will find that your life was empty and without purpose. There is nothing more inspiring than to discover your purpose in life through the love of Jesus Christ and serving within the Kingdom of God. If your life seems empty and void then seek God’s Word for your life to take shape in truly discovering who you are as a child of God.

Are You Soaring or Sinking?

March 11, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in life when we drift away from God for our planes to become grounded and for our boats to take on water. Without God being in the center of our lives and maintaining our balance through the instruction of the Lord each one of us are vulnerable to become lost at sea.

 The object is to recognize how each boat leads to a larger boat and how each plane leads to a larger plane. Another point to recognize is the carrier and learn how to humbly come on board with unity to come out of the darkness into the light. This world is a tough world and will continue to get tougher. Unless we learn how to come together with God in the center of everything we do and learn how to recognize the ones that God puts before us to carry out His purpose and not our own then we are only going to continue to stand at the edge without ever learning how to go forward. 

 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Tim 1:7

The Principles of Balance…

March 10, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever considered the importance of learning to Balance the loads that we carry? Think about it! Can you see how a plane or a boat would struggle in its performance if their cargo was not properly Balanced? What would happen if the cargo was not properly secured or anchored when turbulence entered the course?

 There is alot of wisdom to this if you will meditate on this message with God. Because when you look at your physical life as a boat you will find that Satan likes to weigh you down like himself who is confined to the ground. Now on the other hand, once you learn who floats your boat and how to keep it above water is when Jesus can teach you how to fly.

 The object is to learn how to distribute our weights and learn what could be holding us down due to the lack of understanding in the Word of God. You want your marriage to take off? Put God in the center! You want your business to have new life? Put God in the center! You want your life to have purpose and your load to be light? Then learn how to Balance with God and allow Jesus to set you free!!!

 Because there is nothing worse in this world than to feel as if we are drowning because we never learned who floats our boat and who sets us free…

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…
