True Love In The Family Of God

September 14, 2010 by admin 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

September 13, 2010 by admin 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

God Is To Be The Governor Of Our Lives

September 10, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever noticed how the human race tries to create something that they can not? There are scientist trying to create life and they can’t even properly explain our birth. There have been leaders that tried to create specific atmospheres like Hitler, Sodom and others who restricted the people because they could not properly govern the people. There have been churches that developed so many rules that they have quenched the Spirit of God due to their own lack of understanding of how to trust in God rather than in man. 

 It is vital that we recognize the difference between a controlling atmosphere and the climate of God that is governed with self discipline to maintain the freedom that we have been given. Over the years of individuals getting away from the Truth in the Holy Bible and not teaching the spiritual deception of Satan man has developed man made rules to follow due to the less work that is required to properly teach what needs to be taught in the Word of God.

 When we do not teach our children how to maintain their freedom through the Word of God and how to seek God for the guidance in the choices that they have to make then we are only setting them up to be devoured by Satan in their unbridled emotions that will cause them many heartaches and pains. In the freedom of God we learn to appreciate His command to maintain what we have been given and to grow stronger for our children’s future. For when we learn to truly love one another is when we learn to appreciate what it takes to maintain the love that we have…amen

 If we do not know how to stand on the principles of God then all we will ever do is continue to fall…

Search For The Climate Of God

September 9, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever noticed how we tend to get stuck in a season and when the ripple of change comes our way we tend to miss what God has instore. It is in our human nature to search for that fixed climate because we tend to adapt to the environment that we are in and we often lean on the security of what we think that we know.

 This flaw in our human nature which derives from sin is exactly what caused many of the Israelites to miss the Messiah when He came. The Word of God teaches us to always be alert because we never know where God will be working next and so many times we allow ourselves to get stuck in what we see that we forget what God teaches us in how to believe.

 Change is a beautiful thing that is taking place all around us and when we begin to look for God in the seasons of change is when He will begin to motivate our lives to appreciate the seasons to come…amen

Seasons Come & Seasons Go

September 8, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 God gives us everything for a season to learn and to help prepare us for our future. Sometimes we stay in a season that seems like it will never change and these are times that we are to hold on because God will send us some relief along the way. During these seasons that seem to go on forever it is wise to be alert to those that are walking by.

 For sometimes when we feel stuck is when God has us in a certain place for a certain time to grow and to help someone else along the Way. The object in this life is to learn how to allow God to move us forward and to recognize when He wants us to sit still. God gives us our purpose when we learn to follow His desires rather than our own.

 For there is peace in each season when we learn how to appreciate the time that we are given and how to recognize the changes that are to come…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…
