WHEN LORD WHEN!?!?!?

 
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not
seen. Hebrews 11:1
 
Some of you have asked GOD for a breakthrough, a new job, a child, or a
husband.  Some of you have been waiting so long and have gotten so close
only to feel as if the answers to your prayers have slipped through your
fingers.  Some of you are losing, or have lost hope.  As a result your
prayers are not fueled by faith and you only ask GOD because it is the only
thing you can do.  You are essentially bracing yourself for the impact of
rock bottom.  You ask "WHY and WHEN LORD?"  Each day becomes a struggle to
move forward and your faith is giving way to fear. 
 
If this describes you I would like to ask you "WHY and WHEN oh faithful of
GOD?"  Why do you doubt when GOD's resume is ever fresh in your life.  When
will you stop carrying GOD around in your pocket as if he is the special
weapon when your back is against the wall?  GOD should be in your heart
filling every aspect of your life.  Even in the smallest details of your
life GOD should be present.  GOD has plans for you.  Live as if you believe
his word.  That new job is already waiting for you. That child you have yet
to meet face to face has already had his/her life planned out by the Father.  Your
husband is being shaped and molded to your heart even as we speak.  Do not
defeat yourself just because your timetable is not being met.  Do not give
up on GOD just because of "what the situation looks like".  GOD is the master
of all situations and allows failure, and success for the greatest impact
for his will and glory.  You have to have faith that whatever the situation
is in your life is fitting into his plan.  You have to align yourself in his
will and keep your hope in him so that when life happens you can trust GOD
has control  
 
When you believe in GOD just to the point of having faith in him to do what
you can accomplish yourself, then all you have is a religion, and not a
relationship with GOD.  GOD wants you to move past your initial confession
of faith into a total dependence and relationship with him.  What GOD
desires is to show you that he can and will move mountains for your benefit.
The problems in your life are just opportunities for GOD to show you his
love for you.  Those "unanswered" prayers are not GOD's absence in your
situation. Rather GOD is giving you the time to grow and prepare for what
his answer and blessing will bring.  Believe me when you only live (on average) 80
years as a human, waiting 10 years for your blessing can seem like a long
time.  Be encouraged, GOD has not forgotten about you. GOD will not fail
you. And most of all GOD has given his all to show you he loves you.
 
I love you in always, and in all ways.
 
Rev. M. Harrison

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...

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...
