Stay Connected In The Family Of God

May 10, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 Don’t let your personal desires for approval, applause, and popularity to take you away from the humbled path of God. It is very easy when we are climbing the mountain with God to lose sight of how to make it to the other side. In our climb with God it is our place to help those that may be behind us as well as it is our place to encourage those that are ahead of us.

 The moment we forget how to connect in the family of God through the love of Jesus Christ is when we will get left behind. I challenge you today to never allow Satan to deceive you into thinking that you are better than someone else nor ever allow Satan to cause you to think that you are not good enough. What we have on the outside does not make who we are, for it is what we show in our humbled spirits that reveals the light of Jesus Christ…amen

There Is No Hope Without God

May 8, 2010 by admin 1 Comment

 It is very easy to become discouraged when we look around and see everything that is being shown in this world. Everywhere we look we see earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions, and people crying out in need with others so focused on themselves that they have fallen into greed. This world is at a pivotal point that is going to have a deep impact on our children if we do not learn to trust in God instead of leaning upon man. 

 There isn’t a home, a city, a state, nor a nation that is not feeling the judgement of God that is taking place around the world because of our lack of obedience in His Word and keeping Him in front of our lives. It is imperative to recall that judgement of God does not mean that He is inflicting our pains because we are the ones who have brought this upon ourselves by following our own desires instead of following the Lords will.

 Sometimes in life with children when they continue to disobey we have to allow something to take place in order for our children to receive the lesson that needs to be learned in correction for their future. This is where many people want to place blame on God or on something else because they fail to recognize how we are all accountable for our own actions.

 Throughout the Word of God in the Holy Bible we are taught to count it joy when trials come our way because this only means that something better is on the way when we learn to trust in God rather than falling into despair. Satan has been steadily at work since the very beginning of time in deceiving us to rely on ourselves rather than learning to be patient in growth that helps us to properly develop in our maturity.

 Spiritually Satan wants us to focus on the world rather than staying focused on God because he knows how weak we are in the flesh and how easily we can become distracted from the love of God that is given in the family. When we maintain our relationships with God at the head of our lives there is a security that we receive in the love that is given. Not only do we receive comfort in the family of God but we also receive peace in our spirit because we know that whatever happens in our lives that the true love in the family of God will never fail us even when we fall.

 There is no question that America along with other nations around the world are going to continue their downward spiral unless we repent and return to the Lord. Man cannot fix the problems that we have put into place due to the years that it has taken for all of this to build into what we are now facing today. Our only hope is in God and until we begin to seek Him for our direction and learn to trust in Him for the outcome our trials will only get worse.

 God allows us to go through certain things in our lives in order for us to learn how to depend on Him and for us to grow stronger for our children’s future. Each one of us are going through something either directly or indirectly and it is our purpose to never give up or lose hope no matter what we have to face. God will give us the strength that we need when we depend on Him rather than relying on ourselves and when we learn to act in true love with one another in the family of God we will be amazed at what can take place in the Spirit of the Lord. 

 Always know that God is still in control and He protects us even when we don’t understand everything that may be happening around us. We must learn to trust in God’s protection and deliverance by maintaining our integrity throughout tough situations to always do what is right by Him instead of only thinking about ourselves. So no matter how hopeless something may seem or how much we may want to give up we need to always recall that God is in control of the world and when we do our parts the Lord will always do His…amen

 For our God is a faithful and forgiving God that specializes in bringing His people back to Him through the love of Jesus Christ…

Accomplishing A Mission of God

April 30, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is in our human nature to become selfish in our ideas because in the flesh we want to receive the attention or the rewards. Don’t regard yourself as the only one through whom God is working because we frequently underestimate people and don’t challenge them with our dreams to see God’s work in the world.

 When God plants an idea in our mind to accomplish something for Him we should share it with others and learn to trust the Holy Spirit to impress them with similar thoughts. Often God uses one person to express the vision and others to help turn it into reality and when we try to hold on to what God gives we often miss what He has in store.

 To accomplish a mission we need to encourage and inspire others to have teamwork that will lead to action in accomplishing God’s goals. This is required in every aspect of life and until we learn how to work together we will only drift further apart…amen

Don’t Waste Time In The World

April 28, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is easy to spend wasted time trying to find ourself in the world but until we learn to discover who we are under God through the love of Jesus Christ we will never truly learn how to live or muchless discover who we really are.

 I challenge you today if you struggle with who you are to seek God for the direction that you need and allow Him to carry you along the Way. For the world likes to point us back to the world for its own glorification but the Spirit of God will always direct us back to the Word of God where everything can be achieved…amen

Be Who You Are

April 26, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

 It is very easy in life when we do not know who we are under God to try and fit in with what we see. Everywhere we look we can see people copying people, businesses copying businesses, churches copying churches, and someone else telling us what we need to be doing instead of just learning to develop our own mission in life. With God in our lives there is a distinct purpose that makes us who we are and His love will always show us the way.

 God has something special for each one of us and until we begin to look to Him for our direction we will never discover who we are or even know where we may be going…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…
