Honor Brings Appreciation…

July 8, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 For a person to have honor they first must have it within themselves. Without showing honor for the life that we have been given and displaying appreciation from where we have been this opens the door for a life of carelessness and little meaning. Honor is a reciprocating action that not only learns how to give but it knows how to receive. For where would the receiver be without the giver and where would the giver be without the receiver???

 Giving and receiving shows honor to our Father in Heaven and He teaches us this principle throughout His Word. Learning to live within the Kingdom of God first starts at the core and then as we grow in His understanding then our lives will begin to mature over time. By showing honor and humility in everything we do this shows in whom we serve. Without honor our homes and lives are full of chaos which spreads to the next generation. If you were to look at your life today in the mirror of God how would you recognize God in your life? Is there honor in your home or has the evil one robbed you of something that you would like to see return? Always, remember it first starts with you and then as you learn to stand in love with the Lord is when He will begin to bring things back to you…

Discover Who You Are…

July 5, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Over the years many have debated the law of Moses verses the New Covenant of Jesus Christ. There should be no debate over this topic due to God’s Word instructs us to seek His righteousness and peace in all things. Jesus teaches us if we truly love thy Father then we will want to obey His commands. Here is where many individuals miss out on the road to Heaven.

  By applying Gods Word to our life through the love of Jesus Christ we should experience a daily transformation, from who we once were to who we have been set out to be. In 1 John 2:5 we find the word “perfected” which means to be growing daily in the Word and in Jeremiah 29:13 which paralells Matthew 7:7 we learn to seek and we shall find.

 If you were to look at  you spiritual walk today would you find yourself sitting on the curb or would you be able to say that you know that the Hand of God is carrying you forward? If you are sitting on the sideline may I encourage you this morning to drink from the well that never runs dry and go the extra mile to learn something new…

Are You Absolutely Sure?

June 14, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 If you were to die today do know beyond any doubt that you would spend eternity in Heaven? This is not a question that should have any thought for there should be a quick response in your spirit of the direction that you will travel. Heaven and Hell are real and Satan works in many ways to divert your attention to the world instead of our eternal destination…

End Times False Prophecy

May 21, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Throughout history man has tried to predict the future, and even how certain events in the End Times are going to take place. The Lord tells us how times are going to be and what to watch out for in false doctrine, false teaching and even in signs throughout the world but He plainly tells us, ” No man knoweth the hour nor the day except for thy Father in Heaven above.”

 It is very easy in life to get so wrapped up in trying to comprehend the End but when we do this we forget and neglect the day. Everyday we are given has something special when we learn to look in the right directions and appreciate Gods creation. So what if it is tomorrow or a thousand years from now as long as we are truly ready in our hearts with Jesus Christ for that day we are called home.

 The Word of God is about believing, having faith, maturing, and sharing with others as we are to be obedient to His Word. There is a day coming that we will be called home and we should be living everyday as if it were our last. The beautiful part of this journey in this physical life is learning to live in the Spirit of God and serving within His will in everything we do. Here is a piece of wisdom that  was shared with me as I seeked the Lord on individuals predicting the End Time. The Lord said to me,” There is a reason for doors to be opened in proper season and if fallen man knew the doors of the future he would forget or neglect the day!”

 Spiritually Satan has used this method of negative publicity on End Time predictions in order to bring confusion and doubt among the unbelievers and the weak in faith in an attempt to rob them of the joys they have in everyday given. For there is no worry when we know our destination and whats wrong with a little work because the work only makes us appreciate the rewards…Amen

Listen To Our Father’s Voice…

April 13, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 A few years ago I heard a true story from a friend who had a young son that would not listen. He shared with me about an experience and a lesson that took place with his son and how the grandfather got to witness the consequences of his grandsons wrong actions as well. They were all standing outside in the yard talking while the young son kept stomping on a shovel kicking the handle up in the air.

 The father kept telling his son to stop it because if he kept on he could get hurt. As the two elders continued their conversation the young child that would not listen continued to disobey and stomp on the shovel throwing the handle in the air. The father warned him once again but with a stronger voice in hoping his son would take heed but sure enough the son still chose to not listen. 

 With the fathers voice getting more sturn and the child becoming more defiant the father chose to sit back in order for a lesson to be learned. It wasn’t long after that when the child stomped on the shovel that it came up so quickly that it nailed him right between his eyes. The child then ran to his father with tears of pain and the father did not scold him but comforted him in love.

  See this lesson of a father allowing his son to get hurt due to his disobedience did not mean that he did not love the child. The father knew that if his son would not listen that the best lesson learned is a lesson from the consequences of his actions. Can you see how this lesson relates with us today through our Father in Heaven above? Why is it that we choose to not listen and that we have to be hit between the eyes to see?

 When we choose to not listen is when we simply have to learn things the hard way….

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…
