Strive In Love…

December 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in our human character to become lazy and only do what it takes to get by. But since when are Christians to drift through life and not strive to make something better in everyday that we are given? Satan wants us to fall weak and complacent in our homes, in our work, in our relationships, and especially in the church to the point that we lose that fire in our first love that keeps us from moving forward. 

 Love is not something we are to only share with our spouse or our children. Love is something that should be reflected with everyone we meet and in everything we do. When we learn to work for God instead of ourselves it is truly amazing at the joy we will find. Every time you get ready to do something ask yourself,” Am I doing this for what I will get out of this, or am I doing this for the glory of God?”

 When we quit looking at what we we will temporarily gain and learn to focus on the eternal rewards in Heaven above then we will begin to discover our purpose in life through Jesus Christ. All it takes is that first step out of the darkness into the light that you will begin to see like never before. I challenge  you today and every other day to do the work it takes to keep your love alive and do the best you can in everything you do…amen

Debt And Deception In America

December 12, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Over the last 40 years America has really allowed Satan to rob us of the freedom which we have in this country by chasing our dreams and becoming enslaved to the lender. Many people have been deceived by a generation of Americans that left God by chasing selfish desires and allowing themselves to become consumed with easy finance to a point that has misled many children, taken lives, divided homes, and suppressed America in a national debt that is  robbing us of our freedom in life. Finance is good when we keep it in balance, but as Jesus taught us when tempted by Satan we are to look beyond our desires to insure not only the possible outcome but most of all our children’ s future.

 God teaches us in the Holy Bible not to act on our emotions while Satan on the other hand wants us to jump before we are ready. When we don’t properly understand the biblical principles in the Word of God and difficult times fall upon us then Satan knows that we will grab a hold of anything to stay afloat. This spiritual tactic of Satan has misguided many people to prey on the weak for selfish desires instead of doing what is right in properly caring for the people.  

 Throughout the Holy Bible we were taught to be patient and to wait on God for He knows what is better for us than we know for ourselves. But by our country falling weak in our Christian faith this has allowed the secular world to misguide our country to a point that our children are losing more and more of their future freedom every day. It is easy to see Satan’s plan over the last 40 years by first consuming the people to chase their dreams and then allowing our own greed to lead to a corporate model that is destined to fall. Now due to this financial deception, Satan is hard at work within our own government to take over more and more of the free enterprise because many of us don’t even see how our country is falling deeper in debt to the point that we are all becoming slaves to the lender.

 Debt creates a drive to reach different levels in life but when we don’t understand the Word of God our debt can become a burden that will rob us of our purpose in life through Jesus Christ. Always know what may look good to the eye at first may not always be the road we need to travel. Because it is what we can’t see that will get us every time when we step out in our emotions instead of trusting in God to bring it all together...amen

True Leadership And Delegation

September 12, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

Have you ever really stood back and thought about the roll in leadership and how to advance within it?

 So often we see individuals that reach new positions in leadership but they forget how to train others to one day fill their position.

 True leadership is not something we should try and hang on to. For there is nothing more gratifying than training someone else for the position to one day receive some rest and possibly watch them do a better job in the future.

 When we study history we can find that every true leader that served the people did not seek their position and some even ran from their calling.  Also in history it is easy to see those that raised themselves up and eventually fell because they did not keep God in front while serving others along the way. 
 
 By majority our society has forgotten how to look for leaders and has fallen to grabbing hold of whatever can fill the position out of desperation instead of allowing God to raise our leaders among men that follow His will.
 
 You can see this desperation from politics, to Wall Street, to major corporations, and the list goes on and on even from many of our churches today. Many have fallen to putting their hope in man rather than in God in who gives and takes away. It is time that we come together as one and put God back in front of our lives for the sake of our children of tomorrow.
 
 The longer we avoid this truth then the further we are going to fall! Real Change is going to come and the question is what are we going to have to go through before we get there? God is our refuge and our provider for everything we need in life.

 It is very easy in life when we are struggling to try and hang on to anything that will possibly keep us a float. But there comes a time that we must stop to truly evaluate our circumstances and look beyond the immediate to see the future…amen

Sodom & Gomorrah To America

September 3, 2009 by admin 5 Comments

 How far have we fallen in America? It is heartbreaking to see everything that continues to elevate here in our country in sin. Everyday someone is being raped, murdered, molested, abused, used, robbed, and the list goes on and on….

 We have come to a fork in our road here in America that we better repent and return to God or prepare for what is to come. There comes a point in life that when we see the signs and hear the call, that we better pick up and move without looking back.  There are times within the family when we must regroup and build strength for the future.

 We never know the day nor the hour of what is to come, but when we see the signs it is wise to be organized…..

The Art of Spiritual War

August 12, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 If the Lord was to reveal to us our future steps then He would be revealing His plans to the enemy. It is our job to walk in faith and trust in God for every step that He gives. Many people in the carnal mind can’t understand this because we are not the enemy but we are still in the flesh. We must recall that Satan knows our weaknesses and when we open the door to worry and doubts then we are only giving Satan the tools to destroy what we know to be true. Why do we need to know how we are going to make it in this world when we have already made it to the next? Just walk on while standing on the Truth and applying it to your steps in life with Jesus Christ…   

 We never know how things are going to work out or what we may go through in life but one fact is this, ” Until we learn to trust God and not man, history will only repeat itself.”

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…
