Maturing With Christ…

May 30, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 We all start out as a seed that matures in the womb. Over time the seed produces a new life that will take root of its own. Not all trees mature in the same timing for each tree has its own season. Now the fruit of the tree teaches us a wise lesson, for the juice of the ripe apple is the same that was in the green fruit but with sun- light and sun- heat.

 As we begin to mature with Christ we can find that our lives are like that of a tree that is to produce fruit. For our life is to grow in the light of wisdom and softened by the heat of love. The most important factor to understand in our maturity is that we each mature in our own time and it is our responsibility to love one another. Learning to mature with Christ day by day is an awesome experience for we can taste the juice of the fruit getting better and better each day…Amen

School Of Experience…

May 27, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 When calamity forces you to examine your life take a close look at God’s instructions and be willing to humbly apply what you find there.  To fail to learn from our failure is to assure future failure and our past can be a school of experience. For we will find that our past mistakes will point us to God’s way and we will discover God’s peace when we truly learn to stop and listen…amen

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. Isaiah 55:8

Building Relationships

May 24, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

We all have something to gain from one another when we really take the time to stop and listen for what God has done or is doing in our lives. The Lord works with each one of us in many different ways in order to serve His purpose and not our own, but so many times we get caught up in the physical because we can’t see what is taking place in the spiritual.

It is when we allow the love of Jesus to bring us together through our open hearts that we learn to love one another for who they are… amen

Listening For God…

May 20, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy to become immune to the teachings within the Holy Bible and dulled with its words when we hear it spoken so often. Rather than just scanning over something or acting as if we are listening we should stop to listen to every verse and then ask the Holy Spirit to help us answer this question, “How does this apply to my life?”

 There is something to learn in every aspect of life and God speaks to us in many different ways but far too often we miss what needs to be heard because have forgotten how to stop and truly listen. I challenge you today to slow down and focus on what needs to be heard to allow the Holy Spirit to guide you in your actions because you never know what the Lord might be trying to teach along the Way…amen

”When you begin to listen for God you can hear God, but unless you know how to listen then how can you honestly expect to receive?” Here is an awesome song by Mercy Me titled Word of God Speak that I pray will speak to you as it speaks to me…

The Principles of Balance…

March 10, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Have you ever considered the importance of learning to Balance the loads that we carry? Think about it! Can you see how a plane or a boat would struggle in its performance if their cargo was not properly Balanced? What would happen if the cargo was not properly secured or anchored when turbulence entered the course?

 There is alot of wisdom to this if you will meditate on this message with God. Because when you look at your physical life as a boat you will find that Satan likes to weigh you down like himself who is confined to the ground. Now on the other hand, once you learn who floats your boat and how to keep it above water is when Jesus can teach you how to fly.

 The object is to learn how to distribute our weights and learn what could be holding us down due to the lack of understanding in the Word of God. You want your marriage to take off? Put God in the center! You want your business to have new life? Put God in the center! You want your life to have purpose and your load to be light? Then learn how to Balance with God and allow Jesus to set you free!!!

 Because there is nothing worse in this world than to feel as if we are drowning because we never learned who floats our boat and who sets us free…

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…
