THEY SAY?!?!


Numbers 13:30-32

 

       But Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, "Let us go up at once and occupy it, for we are well able to overcome it." Then the men who had gone up with him said, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are." So they brought to the people of Israel a bad report of the land that they had spied out, saying, "The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people that we saw in it are of great height

 

 

Are you seriously worried about what “they” think?  “They” say you are weak to believe in a GOD who is silent.  “They” say you will never make it!  “They” say you are too short, tall, ugly, and ill equipped to accomplish anything.  “They” even say that this “Jesus” never existed and you are missing reality by believing in him.

But I ask you; Does what “they” say , have anything to do with what GOD has said and done?  To “them” you should say, “When I was told I couldn’t have any children GOD blessed me with a child”. Tell “them” “When I was given six months to live, GOD took away my cancer”. Tell “them”, “When I should have been broke, and jobless, GOD blessed me with a job and an increase in the midst of a recession”!

 You see, “they” talk, but GOD acts.  GOD delivers!  GOD specializes in success and shutting “them” up each day.  Do not; (I repeat) do not become one of “them” by your words and deeds.  You see they “speak” out of fear and a lack of faith.  When you live a life that reflects fear, you will start to speak and act like “they” do.  You will put limitations on GOD.  You will let that fear infiltrate every section of your thoughts and prayers.   You will end your prayers with doubt in your heart  as if you are preparing yourself for failure and to be let down.  Remember remove all roots of fear from your life and vocabulary.  Expect success and the impossible from GOD.  Do not limit your prayers and requests to what you feel you can accomplish on your own.  When you have faith in yourself, you lose faith in GOD, and in essence become one of “them”.

 Rest assured that whatever GOD has promised you is already yours.  Sometimes our hands and arms are not strong enough to receive it, so GOD is training us up for the blessing to come.  “They” have no idea what GOD has already done.  “They” will not know what to do when you are secure in the land of promise that GOD has given you.  “They “don’t even know, nor can “they” comprehend what GOD is doing right now.  Remember, faith and fear are the lines of separation that determines if you are with GOD or “them”.

 
Be encouraged and remember: I love you always and in all ways.

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...

LAW OF LOVE

Galatians 5:13-14   13  You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14  For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” _________________________________________________________________   Today I want each of you to look at your life!   Let your life answer the following question:   Do I serve myself, or God?   Remember GOD is love and by serving him fully you fulfill the law of love as expressed by Christ.   If you are serving yourself then there is no room for the law of love.   In essence, when we serve ourselves, we have replaced God’s will with our own. Service of others is the life and example that Christ has given.   True worship is more than what you say, sing, and shout in church.   True worship is a relationship with God that leads to a life of love express...

NEW BEGINNINGS

Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert   Some of us are stuck in our present and being held back by our past.   We struggle with what might be and what “was”, all the while God is shining a light on the door that leads into a place of renewal and challenge.   The question is; Why do we hesitate to turn the key and accept the challenge? We must be open and faithful to the plan of God in our lives.   In o ur past and present we have developed a perceived control, but our future is totally in God’s hands.   We need to recognize and accept that in all things God’s will needs to be done.   Do not let fear, and uncertainty become the stumbling blocks that motivate you to sway from God’s plan.   Be bold and accept his will and way for your future.   Look for his guidance and leave the past where it belongs.   ...
