The Spiritual Hands That Shape Our Lives

by 1 Comment

 Life is pretty shallow when Satan has restricted our vision to only what we see. Each one of us have been shaped and molded by the people all around us and sometimes we need to evaluate those hands that affected us to insure that something might not have shaped us in the wrong direction. This is where we learn to mature in life through the love of Jesus Christ because we begin to look within ourselves to really discover who we are.

 There are spiritual hands affecting us everyday and it is wise to recognize the hand of God verses the hand of Satan. Each one of us are responsible for our own actions and there are always consequences in our decisions. It is very easy in life when we don’t have the understanding in the Word of God to live for the moment and only think about ourselves but there will come a time that we will all WAKE UP and have to face the truth…amen

 When we begin to look at things beyond the surface is when we will discover the depth in the picture of God…

Trust God For The Outcome

by Leave a Comment

 One of the most difficult things in life is how to not allow Satan to spiritually affect our day and throw us off coarse. The Lord gives us our direction and He wants us to act in love in everything we do to not allow Satan to rob us of the joy that we carry. We all get hit from all different directions and some of us even stumble or fall but this is no time ever quit!!!

 There will be times in life that we can’t see and there will be times in life that we will want to give up because we feel as there is no use to carry on. This is where we must learn to trust in God because sometimes we have to let go in order to receive. God is at work in every circumstance and it is important for us to learn to trust Him instead of taking matters into our own hands. 

 Often we do more damage than we do good because we put ourselves in God’s position instead of acting in love and following His instruction. If something is not working and you feel that you just can’t carry on then I challenge you to turn it over to God and do the best with what you have been given. Because the longer we try to carry something then the longer it can be prolonged…amen

 So many times we get in the way when all we need to do is just sit back to allow God to work it all out…

Recognize Your Spiritual Opponent

by Leave a Comment

 Spiritually Satan attacks us in our minds and through all types of things in this world. The object is to have the discernment in the spirit to recognize when something is of Satan to help us when we are being attacked and to help us prevent something from possibly holding us back. Learning when to move and when not is a very important part in life because Satan wants us to act in our emotions without properly thinking things through. Satan uses all kinds of tools to distract us away from the Lord but it is our place to develop the wisdom in the Word of God to help us better understand our opponent. 

 Have you ever acted on impulse and done something that you later regretted? We all do this from time to time when we act in our emotions and don’t seek God’s instruction to look beyond the immediate to help us in the future. It is very wise to understand the affects of our emotions before we act and learn to let go of our personal desires to allow the Holy Spirit to show us the proper Way. I challenge you today to take heed to God’s Word before you act in your emotions and learn to trust God for the outcome…amen

 What we think we want in the immediate may not always be what we may desire in the future…

Be Alert In The Spirit Of God

by Leave a Comment

 Everyday we encounter spiritual highs and lows not only within ourselves but in others that affect us often in our emotions. This is what the Lord teaches us so much about in the Word of God to help us learn how to walk in this world but not be affected by this world. Spiritually Satan comes at us in all different types of warfare to try and knock us off coarse and to distract us from achieving our objectives. This is where it is vital to spiritually discern between the spirit of God and the spirit of Satan to help us maintain our Balance in life.

 Have you ever had someone to affect your day in a negative way? Who do you think was guiding them spiritually to discourage you in your path? We all fall to Satan at times but this is no time to give him victory!!! We should learn how to stand on the Word of God in the love of Jesus Christ and treat others as we want to be treated. I challenge you today to be alert in the spirit of God and allow the love of Jesus to bring you through…amen

 A frown often brings a frown but a smile can help carry us the extra mile…….

Don’t Be Held Back Spiritually By Satan

by 2 Comments

 Our vision is limited and sometimes even lost when we focus on ourselves instead of looking to God for our direction and placing other people in front of our own desires. It is very easy to become trapped in our circumstances when we allow Satan to spiritually restrict our vision by placing our eyes upon the things of this world  instead of what God has in store for us in the next life to come. Spiritually Satan wants us to waller in our hurts and pains instead of learning to grow stronger and allowing the Holy Spirit to show us the direction that we are to follow.

 Sometimes we need true friends just to give us a good kick in the rear when we are allowing Satan to spiritually hold us down. This example was taught to us with King David in 2 Samuel after he had fallen to sin and after he had lost his son. He was hurt and falling into depression because he simply allowed Satan to spiritually hold him down. Sometimes we all have to receive that loving kick in the rear from our true friends to help us when all we can do is complain or frown.

  When we take our eyes off of our self and begin to look upon the needs of others then God will open our eyes to see something that we have not seen before. So many times we slip in this area because we feel that we don’t have the time to encourage one another or we become too concerned of how someone is going to react to the truth that can set them free. While then there are those like Job’s friends who just want to sit around and tell us what we  might have done wrong instead of just helping us through. 

  As a true Christian it is our place be there for one another and simply speak the truth in love that someone might pick themselves up after a fall. The outcome of the truth once spoken is between God and that individual. It is our place to to surround them with love and always be there for when they may return. I challenge you today to not allow Satan to spiritually hold you down and allow the love of Jesus to get you through. For there is nothing too hard for the Lord and all we have to do is put our trust in Him instead of putting our confidence in man…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…
