Recognizing The Spirit Of God

by Leave a Comment

 There is a difference between discipline and punishment when we really open our eyes to the Word of God. The Lord disciplines us everyday through the Holy Spirit that convicts us of our wrong thoughts and our wrong actions to help us go forward rather than falling behind. It is when we overlook how this discipline is to help us that we often become suppressed to the point that we begin to feel the punishment for our neglect.

 Often when we are being disciplined by God through the Holy Spirit and we are avoiding what needs to be done we become very touchy to the point that we snap at others and won’t listen to what needs to be heard. The reason for this is because we already know what needs to be done but our self gets in the way and causes us to fall further because we choose to not follow as the Lord directs.  

 The object of this spiritual suppression of Satan is to rob us of the freedom that we have in the love of Jesus Christ. For all that Satan wants is for us to give up and to only think about ourselves because he knows that once we do this it is only a matter of time that he will infect our minds to the point that we can not see. 

 If we choose to continue to overlook what we know in our hearts to be true and not do what needs to be done then it is only a matter of time that the correction is destined to come. God guides each of us daily through His Holy Spirit and the object in this life is to follow Him and to love one another as we want others to love us. I challenge you today to learn how to follow what God places in your spirit in a loving way and begin to be set free from the chains that are holding you back…amen

It is not our hearing God’s Word that pleases Him, but how we respond to it that shows the true love that we carry…

Make A Difference For The Children’s Future

by Leave a Comment

 So many times in life we allow Satan to cause us to miss what God has before because we only make half hearted attempts in what we do. How can we honestly expect to achieve a goal if we are not striving mentally, physically, and most of all spiritually (daily) to reach our goals? No one ever said that our goals would come easy and God taught us every single lesson that we need in the book of Exodus in order for us to succeed.

 There will be days in life that we may not see the Way and there will be other days that everyone will seem to be against us but this never means that we are alone. Throughout the message of God we are to learn to just trust in Him and to never give up because He wants each one of us to be the best we can be and that is why He sent us His Son to set us free. 

 I challenge you today to get up and begin to make a positive difference in someones life that will in turn help someone else. The moment we feel that we can’t make a difference is when we are doubting the Power of God and how He is the one that supplies our needs. It is very easy to lay down when we are tired but we must remember as Solomon teaches us their is a time for everything and if all we do is look upon an issue without trying to make a positive difference then what are we really teaching our children?

 We are not here for ourselves, but we are here to help and serve others…

We Are All Important In The Kingdom Of God

by Leave a Comment

 One of the hardest things to learn in life is learning to be patient and appreciate whatever position that we are in. So many people waste their life away not appreciating where they are because they are always looking for something else beyond what they already have. Life is not about challenging one another but learning to add value to each others life by learning to work together rather than on our own. Every single position in life relies on another position and it is when we neglect this fact that we need to take a step back to really understand our position.

 Where would a doctor be without patients? Where would the teachers be without students? Where would the employer be without the employees? Where would the business be without the customers? Where would the car be without the fuel? Where would the flower be without the bird to spread its seed? Where would the earth be without the sun? Or, where would we be without Jesus coming here to teach us how to be one?

 Until we learn that every single part in life is just as important as the next and begin to work together as one we will only continue to miss what we already have. I challenge you to slow down and appreciate today for what it is rather than focusing on tomorrow and missing something that you  have been given.

  Until we can learn to be affective where are why would we honestly expect God to take us somewhere else?

True Communication Requires A Loving Spirit

by Leave a Comment

 One of the hardest things to do when we are trying to build something in life is learning how to listen and to trust God for the outcome. So many times we get into our feelings when something is not going our way and we allow things to build that can cause a division. Learning to communicate in a loving spirit is vital to maintain our relationships with one another and just because we may not agree with what someone else may have to say does not mean that we do not need to listen.

 The Word of God teaches us that our relationships should be equally yoked because if one person carries all the load then it is only a matter of time that something could break. Each one of us have specific responsibilities to help one another reach what God has put before us in love and when we only think of ourselves then this only shows how shallow the love is that we carry. I challenge you to go the extra mile in what God has given and learn to communicate in a loving spirit to build upon what God has before you…amen 

 It is when we think that we have all the answers that God shows us how little we are…

The Seed Of God Will Last Forever

by Leave a Comment

 It is very important to examine the deep roots of our intentions, our goals, and our life ambitions to insure the right spiritual seed that is guiding our path. This examination is not only important before we make our decisions but it is equally if not more important to continue throughout our commitments as we begin to build our relationships, our careers, and our missions in life.

 Without God in front of everything we do, then it is only a matter of time before something could be lost. Rather than working to please ourselves we should be working to please God. For if we seek to please Him then surely we should be pleasing others. I challenge you to step up to the plate in what you have before you and learn to do the best in everything you do to show others how God is working through you…amen

 For the spirit that we carry is contagious and it is wise to know the seeds that we plant…

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…
