How To Properly Invest…

October 23, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Did you know that everyday we are given we should be gaining interest? If you are thinking of financial or material gains at this time then you need to recheck yourself in the investments that you are making. Because life is not about money or material gains! Life is about maturing internally within yourself and growing with others in the love of Jesus Christ…

 It is sad but true how so many have allowed satan to control their thinking into relying on money and numbers rather than relying on God to bring us through. Many in our nation seem to think that if we have money then this will solve our problems and many of our churches have even fallen to judging themselves by the numbers within the congregation while giving a watered down sermon to appease the people rather than speaking the Truth in the Word of God.

 This has allowed a negative ripple effect in our homes and in our children by misleading them into where we are to place our security. Because when we look at money as our solution rather than relying on God then we are only covering up the problems we carry. There is only one way to fix a problem and that is to face a problem, and when our pastors and leaders only tell half the truth to appease the crowd then they are not doing what is right by God and leading us down a path of destruction.

The fact of the matter is, “If we place our security in financial status or judge ourselves by those around us then we need to relook at ourselves to insure the investments we are making are being made into the right foundation of God and not in this fallen world of sin.” Each of us are accountable for our own life under God and everyday we are given we should strive to do something positive in our lives in turn that will pass something positive to others.

Because there is no better feeling then when we know our life is right by God and we are living within His will while investing in others. And everyday that we receive we should make a point to check our daily account within our works and within ourselves to insure that we are making positive investments in our life along with others. I challenge you today and every other day to invest something positive in your life that will encourage someone else in theirs…Amen

Faithfullness…

October 22, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

In every aspect of our lives we should be aware of the shape we are in and allow our faith to guide us through. When we are faced with opposition does this mean to ever give up?

If our relationships seem to have lost its fire does this mean we can’t ignite the flame?

Just because the majority sit around talking while absorbing what little heat is left does this mean we can’t add another log to the fire?

All it takes is a little effort outside our box in life to spark a flame that can ignite into a fire.

We may not always see the effects of our faith, but we can be sure that God will honor faithfullness. I challenge you today and every other day to get up and add another log to the fire that will provide heat for someone else besides ourselves.

In God We Trust…amen

America’s Curse Can Be Broken…

October 16, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

 We must remember that God has never changed and that He continues to hate sin in the church. In the book of Malachi 3 the Lord says,”Return to Me, and I will return to you.” And then He goes on to tell us how we have robbed Him of our tithes and offerings which brought on a curse to the whole nation.
 
 Can you see this curse on America and how we have quit giving our best to the Lord? Can you see how so many churches have even drifted away from the true Word of God in allowing the world in the church? How many homes stand for what is right by God and wrong in sin in allowing the enemy to come right in?

 The Church is to be the light in the world and each one of us should be a candle that adds to the light of Jesus Christ. It is so easy to sit back and moan and groan in the darkness of this world or in our own sorrows but what good will this do?

 I challenge you today and every other day to add some light in all the darkness of this world. For I firmly believe all things are possible with God and if we all would join together to make a stand I firmly believe that the Lord will once again bless this land.

 Some may disagree in how far we have fallen but since when are we to give up? As long as we have breath there is hope and all it takes is the body working together as one to make a difference in this world…amen

Going Beyond…

October 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

How many people do you witness daily that only perform 1/2 hearted with no drive to go the extra mile? Everywhere we turn from our homes, to our work, and even in our churches we can witness those who just exist without ever learning the true art in serving one another.

It is amazing when we learn to go beyond the expectations in our task at the gratification that we will receive in serving God instead of man. This true gratification is not of monetary means or in words of thanks but it comes in the heart in knowing that we have truly done our part.

Because true rewards are not what we receive in this temporary life they are in the eternal life given through the blood of Jesus Christ!

I challenge you today and every other day to go beyond what someone may expect of you to start a chain reaction in the love which we all share by adding one link at a time…amen

The World In The Church

October 10, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is sad but true how many churches have allowed the darkness of the world to enter into their doors by forgetting that the church is to be the light in the world. This has happened over time due to tolerance, complacency, selfish desires and some in pure survival of trying to keep the people in the church.  The church is not a place to be shaped by the world but a place to stand firm in the Word of God!

 Since when did the Word of God change? Since when did the Lord say to please man instead of God? And we wonder what has happened to the overall church body and why America claims to be a non-christian nation…How blind and deaf do we have to be?

 They say we can’t speak the Truth in the Word of God because it might offend someone or we can’t say something when we are led by the Lord because this will be out of order. But then we sit back and complain of the empty pughs in the church while America continues its downward spiral in sin.  

 When our lives are right through Jesus Christ and we speak the Truth in the Word of God that might upset someone else then so be it!!! The Truth hurts when we know we are guilty, but that is between the sinner in the conviction of the Holy Spirit and God in how they handle it. I refuse to bow down to Satan in telling me that I can’t speak of my salvation in Jesus Christ!!! For my God is God Almighty and the Creator of Heaven and earth! My Lord is Jesus Christ which has given me mercy in the Lord’s loving grace which has saved me from this fallen place. I praise God everday given because I am so undeserving for the grace which I have received and I was once so lost in the world but now I am found…

 Uncover your lamp and let it shine in the darkness of this world and never allow Satan to cover it up!!! It is amazing at how we can see when we properly believe…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…
