SIT DOWN SOMEWHERE PLEASE!

Psalm 46:10(NIV)
 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”


GOD IS ASKING YOU TO GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN SO HE CAN WORK!


     My wife will be the first one to tell you that I can cook really well. However when my wife is in the kitchen I have a tendency to get in her way. Most times things flow better for my  wife when I am not trying so hard to inject my "help" into her process.

      She asks me politely: " Honey please step aside so I can finish what I am doing."

     What she really means  is: "Will you get on;  and sit down somewhere! I know what I am doing and I do not need your help!"


     There is no love lost in this seamless transaction that is understood fully by myself with just a simple respectful request and look that is unmistakably firm.  And I would be a fool to continue my course of action after what she said has been fully understood.


      It is no different with GOD. Believe it or not, GOD is in control.  GOD does not rest or sleep. GOD is resting from his acts of creation until the end of days, but he is still in the miracle business and holds the universe together with an unlimited power.  Even though we know this as Christians we are still in the Kitchen of our lives trying to help GOD finish the dish of our hearts desire. Instead of sitting back in faith and watching the master at work and waiting to be served the dish of life He is preparing for us, "we" give suggestions and even try to push GOD out of the kitchen." We need to "BE STILL and Know that HE is GOD". GOD is the Master chef of our lives. The word CHEF in French means the "person in charge or Boss" of the kitchen.  He is the Master of all Nations, and of all  creation. He is able to do all the things that you would consider to be impossible. So I ask are you giving GOD the position of CHEF in your life's Kitchen. If not, please do! And when you do, sit back and watch in awe at the work of the Master's hands.

Remember , I love you always and in all ways.

Rev. M. Harrison

    Too many times we think that God needs our help, that is NEVER the case. When God wants to use us, He will. Until then, we need to stay out of the way.

Never Lose You!

Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? _____________________________________________________ The world would have you believe that it has all of the answers.   The world will tell you that what you see, hear, feel, touch and smell is all that is real and worth living for.   But you may not know or understand that living for the rewards of this world come at a cost.   The world’s influence, when used as the blueprint for living, takes your heart and shapes it to its will leaving you an empty shell of who you really are. Nothing in this world is worth changing who you are in Christ.   There is no middle ground in the issue.   Yes, we are all a work in progress and live in this world, but who we are is not dictated by anything or anyone in this world.   Who you are is worth more than whatever this world has to offer.   Do not chase the image the world is selling you.   Unless...

COVERED!

So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. John 8:7 Even though we know better, do we live parts of our lives in secret as if GOD is not watching. We need to ask God to shine a light on the areas we need to fix.   Yes we need fixing. Just as no man could throw the first stone at the woman caught in adultery, we cannot cast any judgment on to anyone but ourselves. We do not deserve  anything but death because of our sin. If we are dirty, and in no way worthy of GOD’s attention, then WHY!?!?!,.   .even though we deserve the stones to be thrown upon us does GOD cover for us.   In this scripture we are manifested in the face of the adulterous woman.   At one point in our lives we have chosen our way over GOD’s way. Realize that when we choose our way over GOD’s way that is sin.   Just as Satan sinned when pride entered his heart and he vowed to r...

NO MATTER WHAT!

Jeremiah 17:7-8 But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit." ______________________________________________ Watching the news and living in a world that seems to have given way to fits of pandemonium it seems as if hope is in short supply.   Each week we get reports of shootings, world hunger, sickness and corruption.   How can anyone be truly blessed when the world is going down.   Like a neighborhood that once was the cream of the Crop that has begun to be run down, our world needs a revival and rejuvenation.   This time and moment are the birth pains that will give way for that revival.   No matter what the world news is reporting! No matter what you hear or see! No matter what tools Satan employs: ...
