Questions...

I read this from Tyler Perry

I just wrote this to a very dear friend of mine that is going through a tough time. I thought I'd share it with you too.
When I read the bible, I love when God asks a question. He doesn't ask for Himself. He already knows the answer. He asks us because he wants us to understand and get it.
He asked Adam, "Where art thou?" Sometimes we don't realize where we are in life and it takes the voice of God to remind us.
He asked Moses, "What is that that you have in your hand?" Many times the very blessing we need is already in our grasp.
He asked Malachi, "Will a man rob God?" It's so easy to give our time to everything but the work of The Lord.
He asked Ezekiel, "Can these bones live?" Sometimes you may think a situation in your life has died, but God is reminding you that it can live. It's not dead. It's not over.
He asked a lame man, "Wilt thou be made whole?" God already knows He has the power to deliver you but you need to want to be delivered.
He asked Abraham, "Is there anything too hard for God?"
Think about that as you're going through life. I don't care what it looks like. There is nothing too hard for God to do.
Praying for you today. Your friend and brother,

Great Read


The Reflection of Christ

Have you spent time with God this week? What is your reflection revealing? When Moses descended Mount Sinai after being with God, his face reflected the Glory of God so much that people of Isreal feared for their lives. Moses had to cover his face so the people could look upon him. 

Afterward all the Israelites came near him, and he gave them all the commands the Lord had given him on Mount Sinai. When Moses finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face. But whenever he entered the Lord ’s presence to speak with him, he removed the veil until he came out. And when he came out and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, they saw that his face was radiant. Then Moses would put the veil back over his face until he went in to speak with the Lord. (Exodus 34:32-35 NIV)

Have Faith and Be Patient


By adminon Sat, 17 Aug 2013

That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:12 (KJV)
Is it possible to have great faith, but lack patience? Do you believe your favorite store has exactly what you need, but you don’t want to wait in line to purchase it? No, if you know the store has what you need, you will gladly wait in line for it. So often we are deceived into thinking that we can have faith but struggle with patience, while it’s an inability to wait that shows our lack of faith. Faith and patience goes hand in hand. Because you doubt Him, you bite your nails wondering “When Lord!” It is our impatience that shows our slothfulness in believing. It takes strength to stand firm until God moves in our lives. True spiritual muscle is shown when you keep standing in faith and continue to move forward while you wait for God to manifest what He promised. He will always do His part. You must be sure to do yours.
Prayer: Father, I thank You for Your wisdom today. Forgive me for being impatient and doubtful. Help me stand and continue to move forward as You work things out for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

There is No Failure in God


By adminon Mon, 5 Aug 2013

Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.” 2 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV)

You can’t lose in God. In Him, there is no failure. Every test produces a great testimony. All of the mess, in the end, will provide you with a powerful message that God will use to bless others. Even in death, you go on to experience living in heaven for eternity. Either way, you win! For this reason, you can always rejoice and hope in the Lord. While the enemy looks for holes in your faith and weak areas to attack in your life, God has already planned how He will be glorified and how you will be purified and strengthened in your faith, when it’s all said and done. Receive the champion mind of Christ and lift up your head! Your steps are ordered by the Lord and you are victorious in Him.

Prayer: Father God, thank You for always causing me to triumph in every situation. In You, there is no failure. You always win. Therefore, I always win in Christ. I receive the champion mind of Christ and I thank You for giving me the victory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
