Never Give Up or Lose Hope!!!

November 21, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 In the book of Exodus chapter 13 we are taught a major lesson of how to stay focused during our walk of life. When the people of Israel were set free from their suppression in Egypt the Lord gave them a detour through the wilderness instead of taking them down the main road which would have been an easier and quicker route.

 How many times in life have you set out for something and it seemed you had to go around the world to reach your destination? Or how many times have you set out for something and simply given up because the road seemed too hard to travel? Or better yet, how many times in life have you just fallen weak and settled in your circumstances instead of pushing forward with what you know in your heart? 

 It is what we go through in life that teaches us how to trust in God and how to appreciate what we have been given. God’s promise has never changed and He never said the road would be easy to travel! We all go through trials and tribulations but this never means to give up on the love that we carry in life through Jesus Christ! So what if the road is not easy!!! So what if the road is not paved!!! So what if we have to overcome obstacles in our path!!! Tell me, what is wrong with a little work in our lives as long as we are working toward the kingdom of God? 

 There is a reason we go through what we do and many give up while others look for the easy way out. It is when we learn to keep God in front and work together as one in the love of Jesus that we will reach new levels in life.  We all have our own individual mission under God and what He allows us to go through is to make us stronger and wiser to help someone else along the way.

 It is very easy to think only about ourselves in tough times and this is exactly what Satan wants us to do. Never give up or lose hope, no matter your circumstance in life!!! Even in the darkest times God is always there even when we can’t see the way and all we have to do is just learn to trust and obey…

God Is an Awesome God!!!

November 20, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 We can’t even imagine God’s Majesty, His Power, His Love, His Wisdom, nor His Purity.  Many humans have fallen so far away from the glory of God that they can not even hear the music of life which is being played all around us.

 Music is something that soothes the soul and connects the body to move without saying a word. All we have to do is listen and it will amaze you in what can be heard. For our God is an awesome God and all we have to do is stop and listen.

 I challenge you today and every other day to put God first in everything you do. If you see yourself getting wound up or caught up in your circumstances then stop to unwind before you lose your balance and possibly stumble or even fall.  Life is not complicated and all we have do is just stop and listen…amen

Our Offspring In Life

November 19, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

Here is something the Lord gave me the other morning in prayer and I pray that it touches you as it touched me;

 We come from the dirt and we will return to the dirt. We are no different than an acorn that falls to the ground. Our seed takes root and then grows to a tree before being set free.

 Our spirit will either be condemned to the earth or we will be set spiritually free when we properly believe. The seed that we produce needs to be examined to insure the longevity of the tree. For if the tree that we reproduce does not know how to properly believe or better yet even how to stand then how do we honestly expect our offspring  to carry on in the tree of life which is given through the blood of Jesus Christ?

 There is much to be said in this message above and I pray that you hear what is being said. Over the last 40 years our society by majority here in America has lost sight of our purpose in which this country was given. This country was given by God and all good things come Him above. America needs to return to our roots in Christianity to rebuild what God has given and to help our children of the future.

 I challenge you today and every other day to examine the seed that you plant to insure the longevity of what you build to show the light of Jesus in whom you know…amen

A Leaf In The Fall…

November 16, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Sometimes in life we fall, but during our fall we are caught by the hand of God that keeps us in a certain place for a while to serve a purpose in where we land.

 During this place, where we temporarily land,  we might not be where we want to be and sometimes we even stay longer than expected in order to grow stronger and mature for what lies ahead in our future.

 If you can’t understand why you are where you are or why you are going through what you are going through then search for the peace of God in the falling leaf in the wind to discover the happiness and your purpose in where you have temporarily landed.

 Where we land is only for a little while and it is our job to help the children of the future.

 I challenge you today and every other day to enjoy where you are no matter your circumstance in life. Seek God for your direction in where you have temporarily landed and He will give you your fulfillment and purpose in life through the love of Jesus Christ…amen

God Is of Life & Satan Is Of Death

November 14, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is sad to see how certain extremist of the Muslim faith and other religions, who claim peace and equal rights, are killing innocent people while thinking that they are serving God in destroying the life of others. It is (no one’s) right to force their belief on another, nor is it right by God to destroy a life which He has given! We are to stand on the truth in the Word of God and to understand that God is the Creator of life while Satan is the ruler of death. When man takes matters into his own hands to destroy a life of another then this is not right by God and is simply serving Satan. For we are all here to work together in respecting each person for who they are under God while learning to trust in God to open the eyes and ears of those that are drawn to Him through the Holy Spirit.

 So many times in life we take matters into our own hands in wanting to do God’s work for Him and this happens when we do not properly understand how to trust in God to bring things together in His timing instead of ours. God is the one who is in control and it is our job to follow and obey in helping show others the proper Way.

 People must remember that the purpose of this life is to determine the direction which we will travel. There are only two destinations, in Heaven or in Hell.  Until we learn to follow God in seeing how Jesus is the head of the body then we will never see our way back home. There is life after death and Jesus fulfilled what God was trying to teach us throughout the Holy Bible by having self control and  trusting in God instead of man. But where many have become lost as time passed is in recognizing that the works of the Lord have never stopped since the beginning of time. God still speaks today just like He did yesterday but the problem is that so many have forgotten how to listen. 

  How can someone honestly say they are acting in true love and following God when they intentionally hurt one another? Love is not something that is forced or directed, for when it happens it just happens with no explanation other than being a gift from God. I praise God today for the gift of true love which I have received now that I know in whom to believe…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…
