Shake the Snake….

November 22, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Yesterday we looked upon the lesson of Paul being bitten by the snake and this morning lets take this lesson a little bit further based on the needed lesson. The bible says in Acts 28 vs 6 that the people waited a long time to see what happened to Paul and after they saw that he never swelled up or suddenly dropped dead that they finally recognized his relationship with the Lord.

How does this relate with us today you may ask? Think about it! Don’t we all tend to sit back and watch the reaction of others once they get thrown into the fire or when they face trials and tribulations? It is in our human nature to allow sin to often rise up in us and look for someone to fall rather than encourageing them to stand. May I encourage you this morning to shake any snake that comes your way and to trust in God for those that have been bitten…For greater is He that is in us than He that is in this world…

The Antidote For The Venom…

November 21, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

In the book of Acts 28 Paul was building a fire after a ship wreck on the island of Malta. As he gathered the sticks for the fire and placed them a poisonous snake struck him on the hand. It was driven out of the fire due to the heat that was being produced. The interesting part of this lesson is how long the snake took the heat before it was time to move. Another part of this lesson was that the heat made him strike the innocent one before him but the venom from the snake had no affect on its victim.

Here is the spiritual lesson that can be applied to this message. Like the serpent in this message we can all only take so much pressure when things begin to heat up unless we are being led by Jesus Christ. The more we allow the love of God to feed our spirit the stronger our immune system is to the things of this world. We all get bitten from time to time from people that inject something of the devil or from some that never mean to bite. But if we can’t learn to shake the snake then it is only a matter of time before an infection can spread through the body.

We all face snakes everyday and if we can’t shake the snakes due to the infection within the mind then this is worse than being bit on the hand. Think about a soldier with full armor and snakes trying to get in but fail. It is what develops in his mind after what he sees that can develop a deadly disease….The only Way to overcome is through the blood of Jesus Christ that teaches us to forgive and love as we are forgiven and loved in return…Don’t allow something that is not of God to ever cause you to panic or to feel that everything is not going to be okay. For when we stay planted with God is when He will show us the Way…

The Internal Sound Of Music…

November 10, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

An instrument that is developed over time and one that learns to wait on delivery is an instrument that can project a certain sound. Within this sound there is power behind the words due to the internal source of the instrument. The object is to seek this internal source and to have the discipline in order to handle the power. Discipline comes with understanding for without the discipline of God man can not handle the power.

Please take a moment out of your time this morning to watch this powerful video shot at the coliseum in Rome. The group is Divo and the song is Amazing Grace which is a song that was written by a slave trader after experiencing God’s mercy. Within this song you will witness unity, harmony and a deep power which comes from the soul of man. It is when we learn to stand together as one and in one spirit that amazing things can take place to move the world…Here is the link and don’t miss the blessing of the words within the song…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYMLMj-SibU

Recognizing The Music Of God…

November 8, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Learning how to listen for the music of God within the spirit that is all around us requires us getting out of the way. Too many times we miss the music due to never learning how to play. How might this happen you may ask and the answer is simple. One, many never even pick up the instrument. Two, their doubts of their own abilities keep them from ever touching the cords. Three, then they are too worried of what others might say while they are simply learning how to play.

The object is to learn our note and what we have to add in the spirit of God and not in the flesh of man. Then as we learn to work together in unity toward a common purpose without taking something away from what someone has to add is when we can begin to reach higher levels in the spirit of God as His Kingdom comes on earth as it is in Heaven. A parallel to this lesson was taught with Abraham and with his nephew Lot in Genesis 13.

Abraham and Lot joined together at first and as their instrument grew in time there was a point where they could no longer play together due to one group was taking away from the next. Abraham understood something though where Lot did not. Abraham understood the meaning of self sacrifice where Lot took what was good to the eye. Abraham blessed Lot in their departure while trusting in God and helping Lot however he could. Within the spirit of God there is life, reverence, honor, obedience and sacrifice in order to reach our goals and to maintain what God has given.

Unfortunately due to the sinful world we live in and our sinful nature of the flesh this is a constant thorn in our side due to there is always someone or something trying to prevent the music of God from being played. The object is to learn the cords and to be willing to pick up the slack without complaining or murmuring in our spirit in hopes that they will learn the proper Way. For when we teach in love to those that are humble to receive is when others that are yearning in their spirit to join in may come closer to the well of God and begin to play… For there is music in love as we do everything unto Him….

There Is Unity With God…

November 7, 2011 by admin 1 Comment

Learning how to live in this world but not of this world within the spirit of God requires the knowledge of His Word the recognition of the spirit and the reverance to His guidance. It is like learning to play music. First we must have the ears to hear and then the eyes to see and then when we join with other musicians which believe we work together in unity to discover the harmony.

As any musical group it is made up of many differnet instruments which have something different to add. For music of God is not about one particular instrument over powering all the rest it is about each one playing together and doing there best. There is music all around throughout the life that God has given through Jesus Christ and until we learn to how to come together in one accord then we will continue to miss the sound and the experience within the spirit of God. For Gods music soothes the soul and warms the heart in true love with all glory in the Lords name…Please join us again tomorrow in dicovering the key principles within a band….
