The Spiritual Man Verses The Physical Man

February 3, 2011 by admin 2 Comments

In Genesis 41 we can learn another valuable lesson among many in how God will often give us something else to do in the Kingdom of God once we learn the lesson or lessons that need to be learned. In the physical eyes as we read why Joseph was thrown into prison we would think in our carnal minds of how he was innocent. But lets look at this through our spiritual eyes to see how he could have been guilty of inmaturity and how the Lord developed his senses for his future position.

Do you think when Joseph was in that prison that he may have reflected back on his entire life and recognized the importance of timing in sharing his dreams with his family? Do you think that maybe Joseph looked back and seen where he could have separated earlier from Potiphar’s wife when she was beginning to tempt him? Do you think that Joseph would have learned a valuable lesson in the importance of remembering someone that helps us verses forgetting them once we have moved on? Hmmm…What was the lesson with Jesus and the 10 lepers in Luke 17 with only one remembering Him that parallels this same message with Joseph?

Now, here is the spiritual lesson that is going to take some of you with the eyes to see and the ears to hear to a new light through the love of Jesus Christ. There was a reason that Joseph went to prison in order to learn further the wisdom of God and to develop his senses between good and evil. Yes, Joseph was innocent and a good man of God but the Lord was directing his steps in preparation for his season in the future.

Within these lessons can you discover anything that might help you develop your spiritual being further in the Word of God? When is the last time you spent that quiet time with the Lord and studied His Word without being distracted by the world? Do you find yourself developing your senses between good and evil or have you grown immune in this dark world and forgotten how real God is?

God is still the same today as He was yesterday and He often speaks to us is ways that we miss, simply because we don’t take the time to listen. I challenge you in the love of Christ to seek God and allow Him to show you who you really are. For we never know who we are until we learn develop a relationship with God in Christ….Amen

Walk The Walk Or Be Left Behind

February 1, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

In Genesis 37 the Word of God teaches us a valuable lesson in jealously and how a splinter can eventually cause a division within the family of God. Through the life of Joseph and his brothers we can learn the importance of timing in when to share something has been given by God and a lesson on how favortism can lead to unproductive areas of life.

As Joseph was growing up, his father Jacob gave him more attention than his brothers due to the spirit of God that connected the two. This connection that was not understood within the family eventually developed into an evil plot to work against Joseph rather than recognizing how to properly serve within the body of Christ.

The Holy Spirit, which is our teacher, can open our eyes within Genesis 37 to see many different lessons that can help us today. Think about the wisdom of timing and how others might react before you share something that they might not understand. How about the lesson of favoritism that can take place in our homes, in our work and unfortunately even in the church? What is it the Lord teaches us about the dangers of showing partiality or giving favoritism in the Word of God?

Can you see how a child can be hurt if they miss the love of God within the family while witnessing it being shown to others? Can you see how a faithful employee can become bitter when they are neglected within their jobs? Have you ever wondered how many children that have a gift from God like Joseph have given up simply due to the way they were treated in this dark world?

I am here to tell you this morning that if you call yourself a true Christian then God expects His unconditional love within the family and with the enemy. From my heart to yours as one that was once cast out don’t allow Satan to spiritually cause you to lose your balance and forget the line of Christ that we are to follow. If you talk the talk then God expects us to walk the walk!!!

Make A Difference With God

January 28, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Our life is a journey that is full of trials and tribulations no matter where we are. Too often we fall into the darkness of this world because we allow our environment or our circumstances to hold us back and rob us of the joy that has been given through the blood of Jesus Christ. As long as we have life then we have a job to do and all we have to do is the work that it takes to get the job done.

There is only one way to make a positive difference in life and this is to simply do the work that it takes to make something better. Just because the task may seem impossible or too difficult does not mean to ever give up! Because in our hands we are limited but when we learn to rely on God is when all things are possible!

I challenge you today and every other day to never lose hope and think that you can’t make a positive difference! If you will commit to God and be willing to do the work that needs to be done then He will grow you stronger and help you to discover your purpose in life through the love of Jesus Christ. If you make something better for your children then you will be making something better for mine and if I make something better for my children then I should be making something better for yours.

Life is not only about us and don’t fall into this trap! All it takes is a little positive step forward to make a difference for our children’s future…amen

Stay In Tune With God…

January 26, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

When is the last time that you honestly stopped to listen without any type of distractions or allowing the world to make you feel pressed for time? Did you know that it takes time to unwind after we have been wound up so tight? It is very easy to become deaf and blind in todays society due to the way our world is pushing us to keep up but if we don’t take the time to listen then our lives could simply lose touch in the love that we have been given.

Keeping our lives in balance is vital in order to maintain what God has given and to stay in tune. Have you ever noticed how everything in God’s creation has a pattern and how it works together to continue the forward motion? The Lord gives us instruction everyday but the real question is,”Are we obeying what we hear?”

Can You Hear The Music Of God?

January 14, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

How many times do we read something without taking the time to really hear what is being said because we are too stuck in the physical and miss the message in the spiritual. God wants us to stop and listen to our hearts without allowing the world to distort the message. The Lord speaks in many different ways yet man does not perceive it simply because they have never learned how to stop and recognize the spiritual messages before them. Here is a message the Lord placed in my spirit and I pray that you will take your eyes off of the deliver to receive something from the Giver…

Our character traits are like keys on a piano when you really think about it! If we only learn one way then how can we expect to learn the art of living? There is a balance to stay in tune along with certain lines to not cross. But the important factor to remember is if we miss a certain note or child, then that trait may struggle or possibly never be developed. No one can play the perfect tune due to each individual has a difference. But what matters is the common ground in which we all stand and learn to love what God has given each of us in this land.

Learn the character traits to promote growth and watch the music of your child come to life. Because there is nothing more gratifying than the love of a child looking up to it’s parents. This is what the Lord enjoys when we focus on Him and learn how to live each and every day. The Lord rejoices when He hears and sees the music of true love on our hearts. So as you develop your character, don’t overlook certain keys because you never know when we could get knocked to our knees. It is crucial to know our children and realize that our lives guide their future.

There is only one Perfect Father and one Perfect Son who taught us the meaning of two being one. Life does not stop with us and we have already been given everything we need so search the Word of God and learn to follow Jesus’ lead. (To God All Glory, Amen)
