True Leadership And Delegation

September 12, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

Have you ever really stood back and thought about the roll in leadership and how to advance within it?

 So often we see individuals that reach new positions in leadership but they forget how to train others to one day fill their position.

 True leadership is not something we should try and hang on to. For there is nothing more gratifying than training someone else for the position to one day receive some rest and possibly watch them do a better job in the future.

 When we study history we can find that every true leader that served the people did not seek their position and some even ran from their calling.  Also in history it is easy to see those that raised themselves up and eventually fell because they did not keep God in front while serving others along the way. 
 
 By majority our society has forgotten how to look for leaders and has fallen to grabbing hold of whatever can fill the position out of desperation instead of allowing God to raise our leaders among men that follow His will.
 
 You can see this desperation from politics, to Wall Street, to major corporations, and the list goes on and on even from many of our churches today. Many have fallen to putting their hope in man rather than in God in who gives and takes away. It is time that we come together as one and put God back in front of our lives for the sake of our children of tomorrow.
 
 The longer we avoid this truth then the further we are going to fall! Real Change is going to come and the question is what are we going to have to go through before we get there? God is our refuge and our provider for everything we need in life.

 It is very easy in life when we are struggling to try and hang on to anything that will possibly keep us a float. But there comes a time that we must stop to truly evaluate our circumstances and look beyond the immediate to see the future…amen

President Obamas Misguidance

September 5, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Over the past several months since President Obama has taken office America has encountered numerous issues with how our country is being led. Not only has this misguidance  affected America and other countries around the world the part that hurts me the most is how he is misguiding our children.

  No matter what we try to patch with money until we learn to get to the roots of the issue we will never correct the problem! As a leader in politics it is not our place to influence someone else’s children, but to do our jobs for what is right for the people. We have been given the Word of God and the church to teach our children morals and respect in loving one another through every circumstance in life which strengthens our homes for our children’s future.

 It is a leaders position to be an example in all situations while respecting each parent to do their job in properly raising their children. When a leader takes a position he must understand that there are some things he must sacrifice due to the influence it will have on those that are looking up to them and understanding that he or she is setting an example for our future leaders. In every position there is a certain amount of freedom with discipline that is required in recognizing  that due to our position we are not to go outside certain boundaries due to the negative affects that will follow and this is what every true leader should understand. There is to be order for the people which gives honor and security within our homes while holding ourselves accountable under God for what we have been given.

 Until this country returns to God and our leaders begin to acknowledge our Creator as our founding fathers did in the Declaration of Independence then this country is going to continue to fall into worse conditions due to our human pride in not accepting how we are all accountable for how we give back in what we have been given.

 America as a body has forgotten how to give as Abel in the book of Genesis in giving our best in what we have been given. As Cain, America as a whole has held on to the best for themselves in only giving what they want verses understanding how to give our all. Until America returns to its foundation under God and begins to work in serving one another verses ourselves then we will not see real change in America! Until then as our leaders continue to patch our problems while storing up the best for themselves then prepare for the blessings which was given to America to fade away. The Lord is calling and His children are crying and until we Wake Up the further America will drift out to sea…

 It is my sincere prayer that President Obama and every other leader begins to recognize the Truth in what is taking place in our government in order to stand again in rebuilding strength for our children’s future. We all make mistakes at times and don’t recognize how we are affecting others in our decisions, but all that matters is how we correct ourselves in order to set the right examples for the future generations. Our God is a merciful God that only wants us to recognize our position while seeking Him for the direction of our future…Amen

Sodom & Gomorrah To America

September 3, 2009 by admin 5 Comments

 How far have we fallen in America? It is heartbreaking to see everything that continues to elevate here in our country in sin. Everyday someone is being raped, murdered, molested, abused, used, robbed, and the list goes on and on….

 We have come to a fork in our road here in America that we better repent and return to God or prepare for what is to come. There comes a point in life that when we see the signs and hear the call, that we better pick up and move without looking back.  There are times within the family when we must regroup and build strength for the future.

 We never know the day nor the hour of what is to come, but when we see the signs it is wise to be organized…..

God On The American Dollar

September 1, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 There is a distinct reason our founding fathers of The United States of America placed these words “In God We Trust” on the American dollar.  They placed God on our currency because they knew our downfalls in history of what happens when we remove God from our focus by placing money or material things in front of our Creator.

  If America comes to a point of not holding ourselves accountable to God then who do we hold ourselves accountable to and what purpose is there in life? For with God there is direction and purpose in serving one another to reach higher levels in life  and when we neglect this Truth then life only becomes a selfish circle that will spiral out of control.

 We are to learn from history and when we neglect these facts then it is only a matter of time before the collapse. This message is taught over and over in the Holy Bible and when you study the fall of the Roman Empire you will see the parallel to this Truth. This doesn’t only apply to nations but it also applies to every individual in life, for with God we stand and without Him we fall.

 It is my sincere prayer that America returns to God with repentant hearts from where we have drifted in this dark world and that every individual in life sees the purpose in Jesus Christ. I pray that we learn to respect each other no matter our belief and that we learn to work together as one to restore what has been lost in America by giving a message of hope back to the people for our children’s future… Amen

 Sincerely,

James Harrison

The American Country I Once Knew

August 20, 2009 by admin 3 Comments

Statue of LibertyThere was a time in this country when children played in the streets and you couldn’t drive through a neighborhood without seeing innocent children riding their bikes with smiles of security that was given in their homes. This security that these children once felt did not only come from their homes and friends but it trickled down from our leaders who once led this country and stood under God for what is right for the people.

 Over the years of trying to please the people by being politically correct our country,  The United States of America,  has drifted away from the truth in serving self instead of serving others. When we serve others we serve God and when we serve self then we serve Satan! It is that simple and true.

 It is time that we as Americans and as Christian’s look for God fearing leaders to replace these fallen leaders in order to clean this mess up. There are no other words to describe what has taken place in our government and in our nation. We have simply allowed a mess to build and now over time while trying to avoid the mess by just sweeping it under the rug we are seeing the end results.

 Yes, there is a major job to do in our country but alway’s remember this in every mess you face,”You can only take it on one section at a time. For if we continue to only talk about it without looking for the right ones under God, with the talent’s to get the job done, then honestly what are we doing?”

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…
