Our Independence & Freedom Come From God

July 3, 2010 by admin 5 Comments

It is important to recall the spiritual objective of Satan in robbing us of our freedom which we have been given through the blood of Jesus Christ and how he wants us to live under his control to rob us of who we are as a child of God. If you open your eyes to this truth we can see how Satan has been working spiritually over the years to remove our freedom here in America within our homes, our churches and our nation through individuals that failed to recognize who they were following in their own selfish ambitions which tries to hold down others due to their own insecurities and lack of understanding in the Word of God.

The freedom which we have been given by God here in America has been under attack since the formation of this country and due to our complacency in the Word of God we have allowed Satan to make a stronger foothold in this nation by trying to please the people and ourselves instead of our Father In Heaven. Our freedom comes in our freewill which we have been given by God in the choices which we make, and if we are not careful to recognize the spiritual traps of Satan whos main objective is to rob us of our own Independence under God then we are only allowing Satan to separate us further from the truth which we know.

When we do not understand how to trust in God and follow our heart then we become very vulnerable to the spiritual control of Satan. One of the most deceptive ways that Satan likes to misguide us is in the spirit of power due to the impact on the people. The spiritual deception that comes in influence and power is a very strong spirit that can ultimately lead to destruction if we are not careful to understand what is taking place under God. Once we recognize what is taking place it is our position to speak the truth in love and do our jobs to the best abilities which we can while trusting in God to make a way for our children to move forward. There is something that each one of us can do to make a positive difference in the life of another and if we are not seeking God for our direction and using our blessings that He has given to serve His will instead of our own then we need to ask ourselves what we are really doing for our children’s future?

In the freedom which God has given us it is also vital that we understand the purpose of self discipline that is taught in the Holy Bible in order to maintain what we have in our homes and in our nation. Without God man can not handle power and without the love of Jesus in our hearts we lose touch with the people! Learning to trust in God is a simple but difficult thing to do in our flesh. Because in the flesh we have fears of losing control rather than learning how to advance in the Kingdom of God by allowing Him to hold things together rather than us trying to do it ourselves.

It is the Lords’ will that we all learn how to love one another for who we are under God with Him in front while each one of us learn how to work together as One in the love of Jesus Christ to serve His will instead of our own. I challenge every reader that reads this message to recognize the spiritual deception of Satan that takes place when we try to control our circumstances in life without allowing the love of Jesus to hold it all together…amen

Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions…Matthew 7:20

God Restores When We Commit & Obey

May 1, 2010 by admin 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

The Roots Of Our Foundation

April 10, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

What is the most important part of a tree? What is it that holds up the tree in the winds of sin that try to knock it down? Did you know that our lives can be compared to a tree? Trees come in all different types and shapes. Some are big and some are little and some stand tall while helping others that fall. Then there are some trees which man has grafted for quick growth but they offer nothing but a look that produces no fruit and often fall when the first storm comes their way.

The root system is the most important part which determines the longevity of the tree. For if the root system is shallow then it may look good for a little while but don’t expect it to last very long when trials may come its way. Some trees may look good from up top but it is what lies underneath that will determine their future crop.

What happens as the tree matures if it neglects the proper nourishment to maintain the roots in its foundation?

What if the old roots neglect how to grow with the new roots and the old roots only think of themselves? Can you see how this would start a chain of events in self survival without learning from one another and learning to work together to maintain the longevity of the tree?

Doesn’t every part of the tree serve a purpose all the way to the end of each branch from the seeds to its’ leaves? Even the bark serves a purpose to protect the inner core, and at no time does the tree ever stop growing unless something in this world infects it or tries to cut it down. As long as the roots stay intact the tree will always come back and sometimes stronger than before.

It is when the roots of every tree learns to unite and grow together that strength is gained in the family of God. For each tree learns how to help one another with unity during a storm and even lean on each other to help teach each new child that is born.

For every tree that stands is only held up by God and its’ life is determined by the roots that support it during the storms. If America does not Wake Up and begin to turn back to God with His children calling out His name then it is only a matter of time before the tree could fall to its’ knees!!! God will always bring His children back to Him and unfortunately we often have be shook before we will listen.

The Lord is faithful and promises us that when we take heed to His Word and return to Him with repentant hearts that He will restore us after our falls. It is my sincere prayer that America returns to God with all our heart and all our soul for our children’s future. God gives us everything we need and all we have to do is put Him in front of everything we do and allow the love of Jesus to shine through…amen

Thank God For The USA…

November 26, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

I thank God today for giving us life and the freedom which we still have here in America today. Did you know that 52 of the 55 signers of The Declaration of Independence were deeply committed Christians? The other three all believed in the Holy Bible as the divine truth, the God of scripture, and His personal intervention. It was also the same congress that formed the American Bible Society and immediately after creating the Declaration of Independence , the Continental Congress voted to purchase and import 20,000 copies of scripture for the people of this nation.

Consider these words that Thomas Jefferson wrote on the front of his Holy Bible,” I am a Christian, that is to say a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus. I have little doubt that our whole country will soon be rallied to the unity of our Creator and, I hope, to the pure doctrine of Jesus also.”

Here is a little more history for this day of Thanksgiving of our first Court Justice here in the United States of America, John Jay. He stated,” That when we select our national leaders, if we are to preserve our Nation, we must select Christians. Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian Nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.”

There is no doubt of our Christian heritage here in America with how our ancestors truly demonstrated the meaning of Matthew 16 when they left Great Britain to form this beautiful nation and we all need to come together again under God for our children’s future. I praise God today for His “Amazing Grace” in giving us such a beautiful place to live and having the freedom to worship our savior Jesus Christ. May God bless you and your family today and let’s join together in praying for God’s mercy and direction for our country’s future … amen
