Who’s Your Personal Trainer?

December 16, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Are you in shape both physically and spiritually? In our society there is alot of emphasis placed on the physical fitness, but spiritual health is even more important. Our physical health is susceptible to disease and injury but faith can sustain us through any tragedy or circumstance that we may face.

 To train ourselves to be holy, we must develop our faith by using our God given abilities in serving one another to develop our spiritual muscles as Jesus taught us in the Holy Bible. It is very easy to become lazy and think that we have reached our potential in life but when we seek to please God in everything we do it is truly amazing at the levels that can be reached.

 So, I ask you this morning,” Do you have a personal trainer named Jesus and when you look in the mirror what do you see?” All it takes is that first step to get yourself in shape and you will find that every other step will become easier to follow…amen

Fan The Flames…

December 15, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

  Paul teaches us to fan the flames in the spirit of God and to always encourage one another no matter where we are in life. One thing to keep in mind when someone is on fire for the Lord or excelling in their God given talent is how to fan the flame instead of trying to quench the spirit. Have you ever been excited about something and someone just let the air out of your balloon? Have you ever worked hard for something to make a difference and no one acknowledged the work that was done? Always recall that it is not what we do for ourselves but what we do for others that shows whom we follow.

 We all are human and need a word of encouragement from time to time. But more importantly we need to recognize in our spiritual maturity how to fan the flame instead of trying to dampen the fire. It is not our place to let the air out of someones balloon for God decides how high it will fly and when it is time to come back down. 

 I challenge you today and every other day be encouraging in your words and actions with others. And learn to fan the flame in the spirit of God while always keeping Jesus in  front to insure a safe landing…amen

Strive In Love…

December 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in our human character to become lazy and only do what it takes to get by. But since when are Christians to drift through life and not strive to make something better in everyday that we are given? Satan wants us to fall weak and complacent in our homes, in our work, in our relationships, and especially in the church to the point that we lose that fire in our first love that keeps us from moving forward. 

 Love is not something we are to only share with our spouse or our children. Love is something that should be reflected with everyone we meet and in everything we do. When we learn to work for God instead of ourselves it is truly amazing at the joy we will find. Every time you get ready to do something ask yourself,” Am I doing this for what I will get out of this, or am I doing this for the glory of God?”

 When we quit looking at what we we will temporarily gain and learn to focus on the eternal rewards in Heaven above then we will begin to discover our purpose in life through Jesus Christ. All it takes is that first step out of the darkness into the light that you will begin to see like never before. I challenge  you today and every other day to do the work it takes to keep your love alive and do the best you can in everything you do…amen

Discover Your Purpose In Life…

December 11, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever truly found yourself ? Have you discovered your purpose in life? Or, are you just drifting through life searching for something that you don’t know how to find?

 You will never know who you are or what you can be until you find God and you can never fully get to God until you receive Jesus in your heart and soul…amen

Appreciate Hard Times…

December 10, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 In life we all face different types of trials and no one likes to go through hard times. But without them how would we honestly expect to appreciate the good times? It is what we learn in our trials that help us to grow stronger in the future. 

 Don’t take what you have today for granted. It is during our trials that we can learn to have appreciation because we know that one day it will get better when we learn to trust in Jesus to get us 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…
