Allow God To Direct Your Steps

May 26, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 No matter what your career or role in life may be, view it as God’s special calling to serve Him to discover your own purpose in life. God wants to use us right where we are to accomplish His objectives when we learn to let go of our own. Once we learn to look to God for our direction then He will show us a much bigger picture than the one we physically see.

 Without God in our lives life can become very restricted to the point that if we are not careful Satan will spiritually cause us to feel as if everything is collapsing all around us. This is why so many people today are giving up and falling weak because they don’t know how to trust in God for the strength they need to overcome their issues in life. I challenge you today to look for how God can use you wherever you are and learn to serve in His picture instead of focusing only on your own… amen

Put CHRIST In Your Christmas…

December 25, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 God instucted us in the Holy Bible to set up traditions for the sole purpose of never forgeting our history in life and to give praise for how far He has delivered us from where we have been. I can never give words for what Christmas means to me now compared to all the rest. It is truly amazing how our relationships can grow when we stop and  listen to what is really being said in the spirit of God and allow Him to develop our lives into who He wants us to be rather than what we want for ourselves.

 For if we do not know our self then how can we even expect a true relationship with someone else. There is a peace that we can have beyond measure when we truly accept who is in control and receive true salvation in God’s mercy and grace. There is no better gift than true salvation through Jesus Christ and even though I believed before, I failed to truly apply God’s word to my life and follow what I knew in my heart to be true. I’ll never forget saying to my dad, “Dad, I figured it out! Do you want to know why our entire life we have risen and then fallen?” Then I said, “We left God out and put ourselves in front!” It is real easy when we are down to pray to God and ask Him to lift us but then when He lifts us we tend to forget who got us there.

 This is sad but true and once I read the Holy Bible I saw this same cycle of events that paralelled my family’s life and my own. This is where I thank God for the BEST gift we have ever been given in His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and for now allowing me to see what I was truly missing in my life that was tearing my family all apart. Now it is my mission to not only help in restoring my family but share the importance of teaching the Word of God in our homes where it all begins. Real change starts first with our self then to our homes and then to our nation. May God bless you and your family this Christmas and I pray that the love in your heart will be be felt by everyone in your path and that you will share what Jesus has done for you to encourage others along the way…amen

Debt And Deception In America

December 12, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 Over the last 40 years America has really allowed Satan to rob us of the freedom which we have in this country by chasing our dreams and becoming enslaved to the lender. Many people have been deceived by a generation of Americans that left God by chasing selfish desires and allowing themselves to become consumed with easy finance to a point that has misled many children, taken lives, divided homes, and suppressed America in a national debt that is  robbing us of our freedom in life. Finance is good when we keep it in balance, but as Jesus taught us when tempted by Satan we are to look beyond our desires to insure not only the possible outcome but most of all our children’ s future.

 God teaches us in the Holy Bible not to act on our emotions while Satan on the other hand wants us to jump before we are ready. When we don’t properly understand the biblical principles in the Word of God and difficult times fall upon us then Satan knows that we will grab a hold of anything to stay afloat. This spiritual tactic of Satan has misguided many people to prey on the weak for selfish desires instead of doing what is right in properly caring for the people.  

 Throughout the Holy Bible we were taught to be patient and to wait on God for He knows what is better for us than we know for ourselves. But by our country falling weak in our Christian faith this has allowed the secular world to misguide our country to a point that our children are losing more and more of their future freedom every day. It is easy to see Satan’s plan over the last 40 years by first consuming the people to chase their dreams and then allowing our own greed to lead to a corporate model that is destined to fall. Now due to this financial deception, Satan is hard at work within our own government to take over more and more of the free enterprise because many of us don’t even see how our country is falling deeper in debt to the point that we are all becoming slaves to the lender.

 Debt creates a drive to reach different levels in life but when we don’t understand the Word of God our debt can become a burden that will rob us of our purpose in life through Jesus Christ. Always know what may look good to the eye at first may not always be the road we need to travel. Because it is what we can’t see that will get us every time when we step out in our emotions instead of trusting in God to bring it all together...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…
