Discover Your Purpose Today

April 1, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Have you discovered your purpose in life? So many times we miss our purpose because we spend too much time looking every where else and we tend to overlook what could be done today. In our human nature we like to look at the big picture and if we are not careful when this takes place then we could distort the picture that we already have. When we learn to treat everyday as a new snap shot then we should be able to see how each snap shot can eventually develop our future?

Perhaps there are things that stir your heart. These things that stir your heart may indicate areas where God wants to use you in His overall picture. God uses a variety of means to develop and prepare us for His purpose and not our own. But so many times we never discover our purpose because we are too busy searching for what we want instead of what God may desire. I challenge you today to learn how to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading and make the most out of the snap shot that God has given you today…amen

It is very easy to look upon someone elses picture but it is what we are doing with our own that makes it special in the future.

God Wants Obedience Not Promises

March 31, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

God does not want our promises for the future but obedience for the day. For He knows how weak we are in the flesh and how we tend to make decisions in our emotions which only lead to broken promises in the future. Everyday that we are given we are to honor our commitments and do our jobs to the best abilities that we can.

You will find that people tend to make promises in order to achieve their desires and it is very wise for us to recall that we don’t control the future. A person can only speak for themself and when someone tries to speak for others they must be on one accord to achieve the goal in the end. I challenge you today to not focus on what you desire in the future but learn to commit yourself to do the best job you can for the day…amen

God Works In Mysterious Ways

March 30, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

In the book of Judges 14 we learn a valuable lesson between Samson and his parents that can be applied to us today. Samson was determined for his parents to do something because he had set his mind to achieve a desire. Samson was blinded by his desires and his parents could not see how God was working in the situation. Instead his parents tried to discourage him rather than asking him,” Have you prayed about this son? Are you sure that God is guiding you in this matter and have you evaluated the possible outcome?”

It is in our human nature to try and direct the steps of others but we must recall that we do not direct the steps of man. We should always be sure to fulfill our desires in ways that God will approve and trust God for the outcome. When someone is determined to reach a goal then we should be obedient to God’s Word and learn to be prepared to help serve in the future…amen

Sometimes in life we have to experience the fall to understand where our strength comes from.

Trust God For He Is In Control

March 25, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

The timing of God’s plans and promises are only known to Him. For if He revealed them to us then He would also be revealing them to His enemy. It is our job to commit our ways to God and then trust Him for the outcome. This is very difficult in our youth when we don’t understand the Word of God and when we think that we are the ones in control. We all struggle to hold on to what we can see but we must remember the proper way to believe.

God is always in control and He is able to bring His people back to Him no matter how far they may fall. Patience is difficult to master because of how easy it is in our human nature to act in our emotions. This is where we need to recall the Word of God in our hearts to understand how to be led in the spirit of God instead of acting in our emotions and being misled by the people.

One of the hardest things in life is learning how to let go of ourselves and learning how to trust God instead of trying to bring things together on our own. True love is never directed and it lands as a free bird on the branch of a tree. The object in this life is to do our part with what we have been given and allow God to put things back together in His timing and not in our own. When we learn to love for what is on the inside then it doesn’t matter what we have on the outside. I challenge you today to just trust God for the outcome and learn to share the love of Christ in everyday that is given…amen

Satan Likes To Feed Our Egos

March 24, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Pride is one of the most difficult things to ever overcome. Satan likes to feed our egos with our accomplishments because he knows how vulnerable we become when we are placed in front of the people. Throughout the Word of God we are shown this negative character trait when men allowed themselves to take the credit for their achievements and when this took place it was only a matter of time before God moved them from their position. No one likes to admit that they were wrong but what is the big deal in this? It takes more courage to admit a mistake than to hold on to the error.

I’ll never forget before my fall how my pride caused me to make bad decisions because I did not want to let others down and for how I was trying to prove something that was not my place to prove. It is more important to show that we are more interested in doing right than we are in looking good. When we allow our pride to interfere with what we know in our hearts to be true then we are not only hurting ourselves but we are hurting others as well. It is in our nature to put things off and think that we can fix the problem on our own but until we honestly address the real issue under God then we are only being robbed of the life that we can have.

It is amazing at what we gain when we finally figure out how to let it go and when we realize that we are not the ones in control. I challenge you to not allow your pride to rob you or someone else of what can be gained and learn from your past to help improve your future…amen
