God is In Control

by Leave a Comment

 When we do not  know how to trust in God it is natural for us in the flesh to place our trust in what we have instead of learning to understand what we may be missing. Spiritually Satan likes us to have doubts in others because he knows that when we show our doubts then this will spread to others by planting a negative seed in the spirit of Satan instead of the positive seed of God in the Holy Spirit that can produce future fruit.

 I challenge you today to learn to trust in God for the future results rather than trying to shape the future with your own hands. So many times we allow ourselves to get in the way of what God is doing because we only see what is before us instead of looking to God to show us what is taking place…amen

When things may feel as if they are out of control is when we need to have peace in knowing who is in control…

With God All Things Are Possible

by Leave a Comment

 Don’t ever think that something can’t be done because the task is too big or the problems are too great! With this type of mindset we are already giving victory to Satan and doubting the Power of God. It is in our human nature to shy away from major problems because we don’t want to put forth the effort that it requires to overcome the issues that we may have to face.

 When we learn to rely on God instead of ourselves amazing things can take place that the world may say is impossible. The Lord specializes in things that we don’t see and all we have to do is learn how to truly believe. The object to moving mountains is in our belief and then learning to take them on one step at a time. I challenge you to learn how to trust in God and commit yourself to improve something in your life that will in turn improve something in someone else’s…amen

God Wants To Use Us Right Where We Are

by Leave a Comment

 No matter what your work or role in life may be, view it as God’s special calling to serve Him to discover your purpose in life. God can use us right where we are to accomplish His objectives when we learn to let go of our own. Once we learn to look to God for our direction then He will show us a much bigger picture than the one we see when we only focus on our existing circumstances in life.

 Without God in our lives life can become very restricted to the point that if we are not careful Satan will spiritually cause us to feel as if everything is collapsing all around us. This is why so many people today are giving up and falling weak because they don’t know how to trust in God for the strength they need to overcome their issues in life. I challenge you today to look for how God can use you wherever you are and learn to serve in His picture instead of your own…amen

Think Before You Strike

by Leave a Comment

 How we handle things can affect someone beyond our imagination and often we don’t think of the future outcome because we become so wrapped up in our own emotions. It is vital that we think before we act and seek God for the proper direction whether it has immediate results or results that will come in the future. The Lord Jesus taught us to be wise as serpents but gentle as a dove and this is a very wise lesson to apply in our lives for our children’s future.

 When a snake moves it listens in the direction which it travels and it is attentive to the environment which it is in.  As it moves in its freedom the snake doesn’t stand until it faces confrontation and this is where we need to learn from the love of a dove instead of taking matters into our own hands. Because if we are not careful in our emotions and we strike as that snake without trusting God for the outcome then we could be the one with our own heads on the platter because we did not properly act  when all we had to do is listen.

 I challenge you commit yourself in seeking God for His direction in your spirit and allow the Lord to guide your footsteps of the future…amen

God Restores When We Commit & Obey

by 1 Comment

 Throughout the Word of God the Lord points out the results of sin in our lives and how it will not only affect the family but it can also take down a nation. To have a family we must be united through love with the understanding that it requires specific principles to maintain our foundation. There is great respect in the family of God because we know what it takes in self discipline to not only maintain the true love that we carry but we also understand the commitment which is required to achieve our goals.

 Our founding fathers understood this when they formed this nation here in America but over the years of America chasing its own desires instead of staying focused on God our country has fallen into sin. The United States of America is at a pivotal point in its direction that is not only having a current impact on us but is going to have a major impact in our children’s future. Many leaders today have fallen weak to the pressures of selfish desires and allowed sin to infect the overall body because of caring more for themselves than truly caring about this nations future.

  John Adams once said, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

 President George Washington once said, ” It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”

 James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution of The United States once said this,”We have staked the whole future of our new nation, not upon the power of government; far from it. We have staked the future of all our political constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves according to the moral principles of the Ten Commandments.”

 God guided our ancestors here to America through the love of Jesus Christ in search of freedom and equality for all mankind. Our founding fathers were very wise and committed to maintaining our foundation under God to the point that they sacrificed everything for what we are now trying to hang on to. If Americans do not learn to recognize leaders that serve God instead of man and continue to put people in place that are more interested in the position that they seek for their own recognition rather than properly serving the people then God help us for what is going to come!!! 

 In 2 Kings of the Holy Bible we learn the importance of being obedient in Gods Word and building a nation that will stand in love for our childrens future. This same principle applies to us today individually and then spreads to our homes in order to maintain the liberty which we have all been given through the blood of Jesus Christ. The Lord tells us in II Chronicles 7:14, “If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

 It is time that we as loving Christians learn to unite in the body without a division of indifference to sincerely pray for our nation to be restored for our childrens future. It is my sincere prayer that we learn how to let go of ourselves and allow God to guide our direction by learning to trust Him with self discipline to reach our goals. Life is not about who we think we are under God but about knowing who we are under God through His mercy and grace.

 I pray for men to step up and to be men under God to help protect this nations future with a renewed spirit of strength and love to help us unite once again under God with liberty and justice for all. May God be with us and give us direction in the storms ahead with a peace that will get us to the other side..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…
