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 raise himself above the throne of GOD, we mimic that line of thinking when we choose to serve our flesh over GOD.

The law called for the woman to be stoned. And GOD says that the wages of sin is death.  So why did Jesus cover for her!?. . . Love is why! GOD is love. Sin would have to be paid for but GOD would reserve payment for himself. Just as Jesus provided a way to show the woman mercy, and in Jesus GOD has shown the world mercy from the wages of sin, Jesus is the fulfillment of GOD’s plan of love.

We are to live as if we are manifesting the fruits of love in our everyday lives. Yes you will struggle within your flesh. And yes some days you will fall short. Repent and ask GOD for strength in your walk. Never stop fighting and give all of your struggles to GOD. The fight is not yours, but GOD’s. You cannot win under your own power. GOD will see you through. It does not matter if its drug, sex, gambling, alcohol, or a food addiction, GOD can and will deliver you. Just keep your goal of deliverance in your heart and prayers and keep fighting and praying.

Be encouraged! Your past and present struggles do not define who you are. You have an advocate that speaks for you even while you were in your sin. Jesus stands ready to forgive and offers forgiveness and salvation to any who believes on him. He will show up, and show out. When you are facing judgment and death He will deliver you.
 
Remember I love you always and in always.

COMFORT IN THE VALLEY!

Isaiah 40:30-31 New King James Version (NKJV) 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, 31 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. In the short time that you have in this world you can expect to be tested. You should look for it and know that you will have valleys and mountain tops along the path that you walk as a Christian. It may seem that the path gets more and more narrow. It may seem that you come across another path that seems to lead you to easier terrain and a location with “greener grass”. Do not be fooled or discouraged. With each season of testing GOD allows you to experience, there will be a season of recovery and spiritual growth. When you are in your valley you can rest in the fact that you will have to go up a hill to reach the mountain top. And the higher the mountain top the l...

KNOW YOUR ROLL!

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. JERM 29:11 What is GOD Calling you to do. Are you seeking GOD's purpose for your own life or are you riding the coat tails of another? For years I fought the call of minister and pastor because the calling ran in my family. I wondered "am I projecting my own will into my life?" Was I only following my earthly role models? GOD does call us to respect and look to those soldiers in Christ that have answered their call of ministry. However GOD calls us to seek his will for our own lives. He has a special unique plan for each of us that is not designed after or a copy of someone else's. We need to stop saying the following: I want to be a pastor just like _______! I want to bless other financially just like_______! I want to be blessed just like ______! We should say this instead: I want to be like Christ when I be...

RETURN!

Luke 15:20 20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. ________________________________________________   Some of us have struggled for so long with issues and the trappings of life that we have a desire to change, and break free, but we don’t know where to start.   We are also afraid of what it really means to be free from the struggle that has accompanied us for so long in our lives. . . We ask and say: “Well, Lord If I break free from, (adultery, obesity, smoking, lusting, alcohol, sex) what will I have to fight next? What will I have to focus on next?   I don’t know what freedom really feels like and that scares me!” These feelings are normal and truth be told, these feelings are some of the reasons we have relapsed back into our familiar activities.   However GOD has always been watching you.   Even before you accepted Chri...
