Are You Firmly Planted?

October 28, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Did you know that it is Satan’s objective in your life to keep you from being committed not only to God but in everything else? It should be our desire as a Christian to make a positive difference in this world but what good is this if we can’t even make a positive difference where we are? We often tend to chase the world instead of learning to grow where God has planted us because we tend to neglect what we already have.

 It is in our human nature to conquer things that we don’t have but what good is conquering something if we don’t know how to maintain it? Don’t fall to the spiritual traps of Satan that cause us to lose our balance and forget where we stand. The world likes to tell us, “Do this and do that.” Where God says, “Take care of this and if you neglect what you have don’t be surprised when I allow it to be taken away.”

 Staying in tune with God and learning to grow where He has planted us helps us to develop a sense of peace that only comes from God. If you are missing this peace seek God in prayer for the direction you need to bloom where you have been planted…

Use What God Has Given You…

October 27, 2010 by admin 1 Comment

 Did you know that one of the worst things that we can do is hold back someone else when they are ready to move forward? Because when we hold back someone without giving them the opportunity to go forward then we are allowing Satan to spiritually control our actions and restricting the blessings that are sure to come.

 It is very easy  to become blinded to our surroundings and miss what God has right before us when we allow Satan to cloud our vision. When we seek daily to stay in tune with God He helps us to be alert to our surroundings to maintain the integrity in what He has given to carry us forward. It is when we overlook what we already have that Satan often robs us of what God has given.

 Are you alert to your surroundings? Are you seeking God to point out the areas that might need to be addressed? It does not take much to lose our balance when we take our eyes off of what we already have because this is what Satan spiritually desires in tearing down instead of building up. I challenge you today to learn how to build with God instead of looking for something that you already have.

 Why should we ask God to bless us with something else when we are not properly using what  He has already given?

Show Your Love In Whom You Love

October 26, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Love is something that will inspire someone to go beyond levels that we can even comprehend and love is something that will deliver our lives from the end. Have you ever noticed how one kind word in love can bring someones lifeless face to a smile that will light up a place? The way we are to keep our marriages alive are through the love of God and not for the love of something in return.

 There is nothing like feeling the love of Jesus in the ones that are true to His Word. For unconditional love without partiality or judgement is something that no one can explain because it is the healer to all of our pains. The object is to seek to please God instead of seeking to please others and when we learn to trust in Him is when He will show us the Way…

Regain Your Youth

October 25, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

  Everywhere we look there are people pushing some new miracle product which they claim will revive our youth and our stamina. Some ministries have even fallen into pushing these products as the best medicine we can receive in forgetting how to believe. While the doctors are injecting others with a potion that fills our hopes and dreams. The world does a good job of selling the world and over complicating things that are really quite simple. 

 The best medicine that will increase our stamina comes from the self discipline that is taught in the Word of God and our youth is returned when we discover Jesus Christ. Think about it; Are you having trouble breathing or simply have a loss of energy? Have you considered what you are putting in your body and the lack of exercise to maintain the strength in your lungs? Maybe the wrinkles are out of control and your age is starting to show. Have you considered a balanced routine that requires adequate rest or possibly that the wrinkles are just part of life in growing old?

  To maintain our health and our stamina it is crucial to stay close to God and learn to be obedient to the Holy Spirit which guides us to do what needs to be done  to maintain who we are. Abraham stayed close to God and he did not need Viagra because he knew who kept his blood pumping and he allowed God to keep his marriage alive. If you need a boost try God before you try anything else on your own and allow the love of Jesus to give you life like you have never known…

The Best Return On Our Investment

October 23, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Where is the loyalty and self discipline today that is taught in the Word of God to maintain the order and security within our homes and our nation? Where are the morals of individuals today in our leadership and in our youth that are simply displaying something far from what is right by God and allowing their own spirits to run wild? Why are men and women in leadership positions not simply standing up in faith to proclaim what is simply right and wrong by God? Have we drifted so far that we can no longer stand for who we are as a child of God? Are we too worried about the loss of votes or the redicule that we may receive from the world in return? Since when did God say to give in and forget how to stand?

 Soloman teaches us in Proverbs 25, “Whoever has no rule over his own spirit, is like a city broken down without walls.” And Jesus tells us in Matthew 10,”But whoever shall deny Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father.” Within the Old Testament and the New God instructs us to maintain our self discipline through His Word and to never fall weak to the world in order to maintain what God has given. 

  There is strength and security received by God when we learn to be obedient to His Word. Within this security we develop a deeper sense of love through Jesus Christ who teaches us how to serve one another instead of only serving ourselves. Think about it; “If our home is out of control and we are constantly struggling  to survive then how can we honestly develop a deeper relationship with the ones we love?” Does this not make us vulnerable to the ones that want to see us fall and to the ones that are simply seeking self gain?

 The best treasure that we can ever receive here on this earth is the experience in true love that deepens our relationships with God through others. There is no better gift than to receive this treasure in the true love of Jesus because what else can out last the love that we receive? It is my sincere prayer that America learns how to stop and listen to recognize the signs and to see what we are missing. Who wants to build something without the glue that holds all together? Building is something that we should not do for the gain but for the love of serving others to protect what God has given…

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…
