The River of God…

by 1 Comment

As we align ourselves in the river of God there is a main channel that can be heard. Within this channel there is a natural flow in the spirit which can carry us to our destination. There are no worries within this channel when we know that we are in the hand of our Creator who honors His Word as we obey His command. The object is to recognize the obstacles in the path and learn to allow God to move them out of the way to reach our destiny in life through the love of Jesus Christ.

There is a peace beyond understanding in the river of God and the more we learn to flow within His will instead of our own this allows us to see things from another perspective. For within this perspective of God is where we discover our purpose…

In Faith Comes Purpose…

by Leave a Comment

Have you ever had a deep down desire in your heart for something good and that will serve others? The Lord places specific desires in our hearts to serve His purpose and not our own but unfortunately due to a lack of faith or due to listening to the world we often allow Satan to separate us from God’s purpose in our life. How does this happen you might be asking? Many people miss their purpose or their calling due to simply not listening to God for the steps that are to be taken and knowing His voice when it is time to step out of the boat to reach our destination.

Due to our human nature of looking for the path of least resistance or the shortest way to our goals we often miss the lessons that are needed in the wilderness to develop our character and to prepare us for our future. If there is something in your heart that is good may I encourage you this morning to not allow anyone to distract you or hold you back! May God recall your inner most desires this morning and give you the nudge to step out in faith to serve His will instead of your own or someone else’s….

Quality or Quantity???

by Leave a Comment

Have you ever considered the importance of quality over quantity? Due to the spiritual deception of the devil the American culture is now seeing the results of selling its birthright since the formation of this country and we can often witness the same results in our relationships today. When we feel as if we don’t have time when we really do this is where we lose our balance in this life and it can affect the next generation.

Think about it! Why are so many ancient structures still standing when our buildings today fall in one gust of wind? Why do you think that within this generation we are witnessing so many children falling to drugs or to crime? Why do you think the divorce rate is so high and we are witnessing families falling apart? The simple answer is the lack of God centered time which is driven by love without being driven by the world.

Whatever you build whether in your families or in your work build them with quality time to maintain the longevity in life. For what good is something if there is no substance and it sways in the first winds that come to knock it off course?

Earth Quakes In The House…

by Leave a Comment

For several years now these messages have been a shout into the wilderness for those that have lost their Way to come back home. There is no question that judgment is at our feet here in America for our national sin and the longer America neglects the facts the more shaken it will become. Why is that we tend to wait until something drastic happens before we Wake Up to recognize the Truth? How hard do we have to be shaken before this nation wakes from its sleep?

Had you rather someone wake you with a gentle whisper of love or does it take an earth quake to get you to listen? The object in life is to learn how to recognize the gentle whisper of God to guide our direction in obedience to His Word and when we neglect this fact is when further discipline is sure to come. How long Lord must the people remain asleep before they return to you? How far must America fall before they realize that you Lord are the only One that can pick them up? Have we simply just gone too far as Sodom and Gomorrah in the national sin? If so, please Lord protect the righteous as you did with Abraham’s family for your children to stand again.

Don’t be naive to the facts within the season that we are in here in America and lets pray that God will raise up leaders that are willing to truly clean the house that has become so dirty. In addition don’t over look the responsibility that each one of us have to maintain the portions that we have been given. For what good is it if we sit around pointing at the dirt in someone else’s home when we have things hidden within our own?

A Home Built In Love…

by Leave a Comment

In order to build a home and for our homes to stand it is vital that we understand what holds it all together. For a home that is not built on the principles of God and upon a solid foundation is a home that is destined to fall. What is it that holds us all together? Have you ever considered where we would be without the love of Jesus who set us free? Have you ever thought about how empty our lives would be without the love of God holding us all together and giving us the strength to stand?

Within every word and action we make they should be driven out of the nails of love. For a nail that is driven outside of love is a nail that will never hold and what good is a home if we never learn how to build or stand? I challenge you this morning to examine your words and actions to see whom they serve in order to insure that your home is being built on a solid foundation with rooms to help others along the Way…

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…
