True Love In The Family Of God

by Leave a Comment

 What is the difference between the love of our children and the love of Jesus that we are to have with others? Why is that when our children screw up that we tend to forgive them but we can’t forgive others when they do the same? So many people are walking around and allowing Satan to spiritaully oppress their happiness  because they can’t let go of the emotions that they feel on the inside and they continue to carry around their frustrations and aggravations. 

 Everything that is taking place is in the hands of God and it is our place to follow His Word in serving within His will. The Lord teaches us to love one another unconditionally and to forgive each other as He has forgiven us.  At no time are we to give up on another brother or sister no matter how far they fall and I praise God today for not giving us what we truly deserve. 

 It is time that we begin to love each other as God loves us without distancing ourselves from our family and friends. I challenge you today to step up to the plate and swallow your pride to love one another as Jesus loves us…amen

Look Beyond What You See

by Leave a Comment

 When you look at something that you have before you do you look at it as an obstacle or do you see it as something that God has put before you to help grow in His Word? So many times we allow our vision to become restricted because we become so fixated on a particular spot that we tend to lose sight of everything else. It is in our human nature to want to throw something away when it does not work according to plan but it is vital that we recall who’s plan we are to follow.

 Where many of us tend to lose sight as we grow older and more impatient is the actual time and delicate touch that is required in the hands of God to be shaped into the vessel that He intends for us to be. Shaping and molding is something that comes in time as we learn the art of God’s Word to help restore something before it is broken. 

 For without the loving hands of God’s children all around us how would you feel if you were broken and all alone? I challenge you if you know someone that is struggling or going through a hard time to take the time to show them the love of Jesus that is in your heart. Sometimes all we need to overcome our trials is to just know that someone truly cares…amen

The Wheel Of Life In God’s Will

by Leave a Comment

 There is a wheel to life that is God’s will and that is for us to forgive one another in order for our own sins to be forgiven. Jesus tells us in Mark 11 that when we pray to first forgive anyone that we may be holding a grudge against, so that our Father in Heaven will forgive ours as well. What many people do not understand is when we allow a grudge to build in our lives that they affect not only our relationship with God but they also have negative affects on our health and with others.

 Have you ever considered that God is the one that Created the wheel of life and how through the love of Jesus is what carries us forward? If you were to picture your life today as a wheel would you see flat spots? How about knots of unforgiveness? Are you carrying some things that maybe you need to let go of? How is the pressure in your wheel? Are you filled with the fruit of the spirit or does Satan have you so worked up that you feel as if you are going to explode?   

 We all pick up trash from time to time as we travel down the road of life but the object is to keep our wheel in balance and filled with the love of Jesus Christ so we can reach our eternal destination.  It is imperative to understand that spiritually Satan wants us to harbor things because he knows how this can harden our hearts to the point that we destroy what we have around us. I challenge you today if there is someone that you have been holding a grudge against to let them know that you forgive them and allow God to move you forward…amen

 Sometimes we have to let the air out in love in order for God to fill us back up again to move forward…

Let’s Praise God For Where We Are

by Leave a Comment

 It is very easy to allow the negativity that is in world to rob us of the victory and joy that we have. We should be praising God for what is taking place here in America today because to my limited knowledge there has never been a time as this that Christians have began to stand up and speak for what they know in their hearts and soul.

 There is Victory in our trials when we recognize where we have gone wrong and we begin to rebuild what has been broken from before. Spiritually Satan wants to consume us with the negativity and make us feel that there is no hope when there really is. As long as we have breath we have life and in life we have God who makes the impossible possible for us to overcome when we learn to trust in Him rather than within our own limitations.

 If you are feeling pressured, depressed, scared or simply sad ask yourself,”Why?” Because if God has given you the life to read this message then He has given you the strength to make a positive difference in where you are…amen

Real Change Starts Within

by Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in life to say we are going to change but the question is, “Do our actions follow our words?” There is only one way to change or correct a problem and that is to get to the roots at where they began and then work our way back up to the top! If we start on the top then the change is only superficial because it will only last so long before the roots on the inside will overcome that which is on the outside.

 There is only one way to examine our roots and that is with the light of Jesus Christ that exposes our wrongs to make them right. Honestly, how can we expect true change if we do not get to the bottom and work our way back up to the top? Once we are on the bottom it is necessary to study our foundation in order to repair and rebuild stronger than ever before.

  So many times in life we make half hearted attempts to change but due to the commitment that is required along with the hard work that it takes we only scratch  the surface before we eventually give up or settle with something less. I challenge you today and every other day to commit yourself in making a difference not only in your life but in someone elses without settling for something less than what God wants you to have…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…
