NEW BEGINNINGS



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 our 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. 

Be encouraged! Just when you think your past is going to repeat itself, God is prepared to do something new right before your eyes.  Don’t stop trying to have that baby, land that dream job, or branch out into your calling!  God can and will make a way out of no way.  All you need to do is ask, pray, believe and walk in faith.  God will do the rest!  Will you be ready?

 

I love you always and in all ways.

Rev. M. Harrison

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...
