Real Change In Life

September 30, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in life to say we are going to change or fix a problem but the question is, “Do our actions follow our words?”  There is only one way to change or correct a problem and that is to reach the roots at the bottom and then work our way back up to the top! If we only work on the top then the change is only superficial because it will only last so long before the roots on the inside will overcome that which is on the outside.

 Sometimes in life we have to be on the bottom to even see our way back up to the top. Once we are on the bottom we study our roots and our surroundings in order to repair and build like never before in seeing not only where we went wrong but how to help others along the way… 

  There is only one way to examine our roots and that is with the light of Jesus Christ that exposes our wrongs to make them right. The foundation which we stand is not ours but our Creators’ in Heaven above. Once we learn our position in who gives and takes away it is amazing at the strength we gain once we learn to stand again with God guiding the way.

 We can speak change all day long, but if we do not do the work it takes in reaching the roots then prepare for the change to only last so long before the fall. I challenge you today and every other day to make positive change that will in turn help others in life throug hthe love of Jesus Christ…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

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?”

Where Are The Men of God?

June 24, 2009 by admin 3 Comments

 Where are the men of God that once stood with the armour that did not fall weak and remained strong? I can remember a time when men of God stood boldly and declared the Word of God as the Truth and the light to anyone that is misguiding our children and now where are they? Are they asleep? Are they too concerned of persecution? Or, are they to worried about what they may lose?

 Being a man of God does not mean to lay down and be tolerant of sin but to stand strong in the armour of God without waver from the Truth! In order for us to regain what we have lost we must unify in the body of Christ to serve and obey in what is right for our childen of tomorrow! For Jesus plainly tells us,” Those that lead my children astray might as well put a millstone around their neck!” 

 Our country as a whole has fallen to sin because men have forgotten how to work together in the body in understanding their position under God. Many of our leaders and fathers have become lazy, tolerant, blind, deaf, and too secure in their material life to risk losing what they think they own instead of speaking what is right by God and wrong in sin. If men do not begin to come together as one and stand up in faith with Jesus in their hearts in what is right by God, then what do you honestly see in the future for our children of tomorrow?

 We must come together within the Christian body to gain strength and a unified voice that will tremble this earth within the POWER of God in the Holy Spirit!!! If we do not do this then we will only continue to suffer while others will fade away in all the darkness that is surrounding us in this fallen world.

 So what if we lose our lives or everything we have! For with God we have everything and without Him what do we really have? There is great Honor in the Kingdom of God to those that understand the true meaning of putting ourselves second to others instead of first. This is not about disorder but about giving direction to rebuild this nation on the foundation of God while acting in the love of Jesus Christ. There comes a point in every Christian that we must say, ” Enough is enough and what  you are doing is not right by God and hurting the people!”

 John Adams once said,” We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is inadequate to the government of any other.”

 George Washington once said, ” It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”

 Men of God need to stand up for our children’s future and put aside our personal desires for the sake of others. It is my prayer that we come together as One Nation Under God With Liberty and Justice For All!!! Amen

Direction With God In America

May 5, 2009 by admin Leave a Comment

 I have come to a point that I don’t know what else to say in trying to open the eyes of every believer to what is really taking place around the world. The Lord is revealing His anger at all our sin and every day things are only getting worse because we are so caught up in the physical and can’t see the spiritual. By majority, the people have come to a point in our society where we have forgotten how to hear the Word of God and began to look to man for the answers instead of whom gives the answers.

 There is not one true believer that can read throughout this ministry website and not see what the Lord has given to me to share with you. I know the day will come when the Lord will open the door for me to move forward but I pray that it comes soon. Because the longer the people don’t listen then the further they will drift away. Things are changing all around us and if the people do not Wake Up to the Truth and turn to God for guidance instead of man then matters are only going to continue to get worse!

 It is okay to have opinions on matters but opinions are nothing without direction!

 There is only one direction in moving forward and without God in front we will only go in circles in all the opinions that people are trying to show in their intellect.  We all at times want attention on ourselves and want to show what we know. But it is vital to recall that attention on self is short lived while attention on God goes on forever. We must quit all the talk, refocus and get back to work…

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…
