A Leaf In The Fall…

November 16, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Sometimes in life we fall, but during our fall we are caught by the hand of God that keeps us in a certain place for a while to serve a purpose in where we land.

 During this place, where we temporarily land,  we might not be where we want to be and sometimes we even stay longer than expected in order to grow stronger and mature for what lies ahead in our future.

 If you can’t understand why you are where you are or why you are going through what you are going through then search for the peace of God in the falling leaf in the wind to discover the happiness and your purpose in where you have temporarily landed.

 Where we land is only for a little while and it is our job to help the children of the future.

 I challenge you today and every other day to enjoy where you are no matter your circumstance in life. Seek God for your direction in where you have temporarily landed and He will give you your fulfillment and purpose in life through the love of Jesus Christ…amen

God Is of Life & Satan Is Of Death

November 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is sad to see how certain extremist of the Muslim faith and other religions, who claim peace and equal rights, are killing innocent people while thinking that they are serving God in destroying the life of others. It is (no one’s) right to force their belief on another, nor is it right by God to destroy a life which He has given! We are to stand on the truth in the Word of God and to understand that God is the Creator of life while Satan is the ruler of death. When man takes matters into his own hands to destroy a life of another then this is not right by God and is simply serving Satan. For we are all here to work together in respecting each person for who they are under God while learning to trust in God to open the eyes and ears of those that are drawn to Him through the Holy Spirit.

 So many times in life we take matters into our own hands in wanting to do God’s work for Him and this happens when we do not properly understand how to trust in God to bring things together in His timing instead of ours. God is the one who is in control and it is our job to follow and obey in helping show others the proper Way.

 People must remember that the purpose of this life is to determine the direction which we will travel. There are only two destinations, in Heaven or in Hell.  Until we learn to follow God in seeing how Jesus is the head of the body then we will never see our way back home. There is life after death and Jesus fulfilled what God was trying to teach us throughout the Holy Bible by having self control and  trusting in God instead of man. But where many have become lost as time passed is in recognizing that the works of the Lord have never stopped since the beginning of time. God still speaks today just like He did yesterday but the problem is that so many have forgotten how to listen. 

  How can someone honestly say they are acting in true love and following God when they intentionally hurt one another? Love is not something that is forced or directed, for when it happens it just happens with no explanation other than being a gift from God. I praise God today for the gift of true love which I have received now that I know in whom to believe…amen

Don’t Allow Satan To Hold You Back…

November 13, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in life give Satan victory when we become stuck in our circumstance or in our past sins by allowing them to define who we are. Don’t ever look down upon yourself for where you have been or for where you may be, because none of this matters when you have been truly set free.

 It is what we (learn) from our past that will define who we are in the future, and our lessons in life will give us the strength to overcome our future.

 Our trials in life whether directly or indirectly are there to make us stronger, and to teach us how to help others that may be facing the same circumstances in life. By trying to hide our past this only covers up who we really are, and this allows Satan to rob us of the joy that we have in Jesus Christ. I don’t know about you, but I refuse to give satan victory in my life, and allow him to work through someone else in trying to rob me of the love that I know in my heart!

  I challenge you today to be happy with who you are and praise God for what He has brought you through! Don’t allow Satan to rob you of your joy in learning to just appreciate where you are rather than worrying about where you want to go. There is a great peace in being happy and content within yourself and this void can only be filled with the light of Jesus in the darkness of our fallen souls…amen

Praise God For A New Day!!!

November 12, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 In every morning that you wake up do you take the time to praise God before you even start the day? Or, do you just jump up without even taking the time to pray?

 There is a peace in the early morning that can’t be explained by many, but this peace is of God before our minds get distracted in this world. As we go through the day it is easy to not keep God in the drivers seat and put Him in the back because we don’t want to speak of God in front of others, but why do we do this?

 Why are we scared to talk of God in front of strangers and share how He has given us purpose in our lives through the love of Jesus Christ? Since when are true Christians to give in and fall to sin?

 It is imperative to recall that the church we attend is for fellowship and worship to replenish our souls for the next weeks journey. Not only was the church established for the believers, but it is also for those that are seeking the light in the darkness of this world. People wonder why the church pughs are falling empty and why the world is getting so dark, but fail to realize that it is because many Christians have fallen to simply not doing their jobs in taking God outside of the church and sharing Him in every aspect of their life.

 How do you expect a light to shine when we keep covering it  up in front of others outside of the church? Every single believer has a mission field whether in their homes, in their work place, in their communities, and even in foreign countries and unless we uncover the lamp to let it shine then how do we honestly expect others to see how to properly believe?

 I challenge you today and every other day to keep God in the drivers seat and share the message of hope no matter your circumstance in life. There is great power in the spirit of God when we turn the light on in the dark room to help others see the way…amen

Share The Love of Jesus

November 11, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very depressing to look at all the negativity that is taking place here in America and even in our adjoining countries. Everyday we hear something negative and see how Satan is spiritually destroying many lives all around us, but this is a prime time to be sharing the hope in Jesus Christ in teaching those that are lost how to follow God instead of falling to Satan.

 This is not a time for Christians to fall weak and be backed into a corner without speaking the Truth in the Word of God!!! If we want this country of the United States of America to improve from our current situation then we must Stand Up for what is right by God and share the love of Jesus in all the darkness that we see!

  All it takes is a little light to penetrate the dark room of someones lost soul, and you never know how that seed can spread from one person to the next. It is vital to remember that when we fail to keep God in front of our circumstances, and act in the flesh then evil will feed evil and that is all that Satan wants. Because in hell fire feeds fire and in Heaven love feeds love. 

 I don’t know about you or where you may be, but I believe God gave us ,the gentiles, America as He gave the people of Israel Jerusalem not only to be free but to help others that are in need! It is time that we Americans Wake Up and take care of our homes in order to restore what has been lost in the Hope and direction that God provides!  I challenge you today and every other day to add the love of Jesus in every aspect of your life in helping push back the darkness of this world. One candle can only put out so much light, but it is when we join our candles together that the light of Jesus will shine so bright…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…
