Restoring Honor…

June 6, 2012 by admin Leave a Comment

When we look upon God’s creation we can discover the very things He teaches in the Word within nature. For instance geese they can sense predators and the seasons at hand. They mate for life and when one goes down the mate goes too. In addition they fly in formation in order to lighten the loads of the ones that follow. The one that starts at the beginning of their journey is not always one that leads at the end.

They learn to work together as they fly in unity and when they meet another group or let’s say another body of believers they don’t argue about the direction nor do they compete for the lead. They simply merge together as one building a larger formation as they continue to seek their destination. Once they reach their destination within the fields we can witness many different species respecting one another with a sense of honor without pushing others around.

Another interesting part is that they don’t chase the wind but they learn how to use the wind to their advantage. Sometimes storms throw them off course and separate them from the flock but this never stops them from seeking their return. Sometimes they reunite in flight and other times they simply join at their destination. They understand the importance of returning home from season to season and they understand the importance of unity in order to reach their destination.

It is when we learn to put aside our differences and seek the direction of God that He will show us the Way. Here is a video shot from the Glen Beck speech Restoring Honor that I believe is a call for unity in order to regain our direction….

Pass The Baton In Due Season

February 10, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 Did you know that if we become stubborn that it can be disobedience to God and that our stubbornness will not only affect our lives but the lives of others? Many generations have mistaken stubbornness with obedience because they simply do not understand how to trust in God so they place their trust in man.  Out of fear many leaders have become stubborn and forgotten how to recognize how the Lord works through the people and when we miss this is when He often will work through nature in ways to get our attention.

 Have you ever witnessed a manager or owner of a company that held on to their position for too long and it sucked the life out of the environment? Have you ever been in a position where you had something to add but you were not allowed the chance to do so due to the insecurities of your superior? If we don’t learn how to pass the baton and work together then don’t be surprised when the foundation begins to lose its footing.

 Persistence is good when we know the motives but stubbornness is usually self centered and leads toward rebellion. When you rid yourself of stubbornness and begin to trust God for the outcome you may be surprised in the blessings that God has right before you. Don’t allow Satan to spiritually misguide you in stubbornness and learn to be alert to what God is doing all around you. For the last thing any loving Christian should want is to see the life being sucked out of the game because someone was too stubborn to pass the baton in due season…Amen

Real Love Or Superficial

December 7, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 If you were to look within the way you express your love how deep would your love go? The Word of God instructs us to clothe ourselves in love and it will bond us together in harmony with Christ giving us peace in our hearts. Think about the word clothe in this cold world that it is. Have you ever felt the difference in a fresh towel right of the dryer as you stepped out of the shower? Could you feel the warmth to your bones?

 The real love of God does not only warm us on the outside but it penetrates to the inside. As a true Christian our love should be felt by others and reflected in our words and actions with respect for the other individual. If someone says that they have love but show no respect in return then their love is either very shallow or sadly superficial.

 Jesus taught us how to love and Gods Word instructs us to love thy neighbor as thyself. So with this said, I challenge you to think about the way that you express your love with others to insure that your words and actions can be felt from the warmth of God in your heart. We all tend to get in a rush in this busy world but it is wise to maintain your balance in the love of Jesus to insure that you don’t miss the step…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…
