Have You Moved Into The Realm Of Completion Yet?

Are you finding it hard to to do?  To trust?  To believe?   To hope?  To forgive?    To let go?  To let God?    Are you finding it hard to do any or all of this?   

We are so used to having control that sometimes it is just hard.   It's hard to surrender it all to God.  To trust God with it all.   Even though we know that He said that He would never leave us nor forsake us.  We still find it hard.   Even though we believe in all that He has done.  We still find it hard.    It is time to move into the area where things are complete in Him.     Where you completely trust.   Completely believe.   Completely forgive.  Completely let go..   Completely let God.   No it won't be easy.   However it is possible.   The thing is ... you have to learn how to cast down thoughts.   Thoughts that come up that try to hinder your trust relationship with God.    So cast own thoughts and move into the realm of completion so that you can see the fulfillment of God's promises in your life.

Are You Trusting God In The Process?

What happens when it all seems to be falling apart? What are you doing? Are you giving up? Are you quitting? Are you waiting on God? Where is your hope? Where is your trust? Is it in your ability? Or is it in God's ability? Do you think you're stronger? Or do you know He is stronger? Are you falling apart? Or are you allowing God to hold you together?

We have to know, realize, and trust that God will take care of us. It's just that simple yet it feels so hard.  God is the Creator of all things. His power and His ability overrides any and everything. He is all seeing, all-knowing, and all God. What you are going through, is not too hard for Him.  Let him bring you through. Trust Him in the process. Trust Him while you are going through. Don't give up, don't quit, and don't give in.


Prayer For Today - January 24, 2014 (Asking God To Move)

Father thank you. Thank you for your word and your promises. Thank you God for your promises are true. Father you said in your word that you would never leave us nor forsake us. Thank you right now for showing up and showing out in our situations. Father we need you. We need you to move and to manifest like never before. We need you to provides like never before. We need you to heal like never before.  Father do what only you can, in Jesus name. Amen.

Are You Keeping Your Life On Auto Pilot?

Why is it that we think that we are capable of navigating our own lives?   Why do we think that the blessings of God are automatic?   We get tense and we start to doubt when things don't come when we expect them to.   It's funny because we start off on "auto pilot".  Where we surrender everything to God and ask Him to lead, guide, and direct our lives.   However, as soon as we hit a bump or as soon as things don't go as expected we take our lives off of auto pilot and begin to try to navigate ourselves.    

The thing about allowing God to guide our lives is ... He knows what will happen in the future.   Nothing is unexpected and He knows every obstacle that will try to interfere with His plan.   So He knows the course and the path to take.   We are the opposite.   We don't know what will happen.  Yet we think we know the path that we need to take and that path sometimes leads us to another obstacle.   One that is bigger than the first.   

It's time to leave our lives in God's hands.  We need to trust that His navigation will never fail us.   Trust that He knows the beginning to the end and He knows where we are and where He is taking us.

Are You Judging The Battle In Your Mind Based On God's Word and His Will and Not Your Wants?

Are you really willing to help?   Are you really willing to complete the assignment that God has called you to?   If you are willing to help and if you are willing to complete your assignment, you have to be willing to listen to the "still small voice".  

Our minds are forever talking.   We have to learn how to tell them "peace be still".    It's not just the outward circumstances we have to speak to.  We have to speak to the entity of our mind.  We have to learn how to bind thoughts that are not of him and pursue the things that He is telling us to do.    Always remember ... our flesh will always point us to do things that are for the benefit of "self".   God's voice will always point us to do things that are for the benefit of His "kingdom".   We have to learn how to follow the voice of God ... even when it is not appealing to our flesh, our wants, or our desires.   

Whatever it is that your mind is in a battle over, judge it according to God and His word.    Is it in line with the word of God?   Meaning that you need to make sure it does not lead to sin.    Does it build God's kingdom?    Does it require you to sacrifice your wants and your desires to fulfill God's will?   These are good determining factors to settle the battle in your mind.

Do You Understand That Your Life Is A Learning Experience?

Every day is an learning experience. An experience where you learn more about people, more about life, and more about God. The thing is ... God never changes. People will change and life will change ... but God NEVER changes.

The word learning is defined as acquiring skills or knowledge. What new skills are your acquiring in relation to God? Are you learning how to pray more and study more? What knowledge are you obtaining as a result of learning? Are you finding out that God is faithful and that He loves you.

The whole concept around "learning" is based on the fact that you don't know previously. We have to stop beating ourselves up for what we don't know and get in a position where we can begin to learn more. More about what the Father wants to do in and through our lives. Remember ... learning is a process that requires effort. If you never put forth the effort to learn, you will never know what you need to know to walk confidently in the faith and life that God has given you.

Are You Trusting God Through The Process?

God has not given up on you. He has not quit on you. Even when you gave up and tried to quit on you, he stood by you. He forgave you. He waited on you to recommit and to reconnect to His will, purpose, and plan. So why are you quitting? Why are you going astray? Why are you letting go of the promise that God told you to hold on to? Why? It's time to trust God through the process. To believe God through the pain. To walk with God no matter how it appears to be. It's time to realize and know that He is who He said He is and to trust that He will do what He said He would do.

Are You Ready to Walk In Victory and To Stop Whining Defeat?

What did God say?  What did he say about what you are going through?   Are you claiming His victory or are  you whining in defeat.   It's time to take authority.  Authority over what the enemy has brought against your life.   You take authority by standing in the power that God has given you.   God gave us His word.   He has already said that we are healed.   He has already said that He knows what we have need of and is faithful and just to provide.   He has already said that He will give us peace.   We tend to constantly look for answers when God has already given us the answer.   It is a matter of us walking in faith and trusting Him to do what He said He would do.  

Are you ready and are you willing to let go and let God and His word be the guiding force in your life?   To totally surrender and to stop picking back up the things that you have given Him.  Are you ready to put  your "total" trust in His word and to walk in a realm of expectation.   Trusting God to do what HE promised that HE would do?    Are you ready to walk in victory and to stop whining defeat?

Growing In Faith Through The Knowledge and Understanding Of God's Ability...

Growth is a process.   It is a process that we all must go through.   There are many things that happen during the growth process.   The body grows, knowledge comes, strength comes, ability comes, and understanding comes.    Take a moment to think about how a baby goes through various stages (baby, toddler, child, teen, adult) before it becomes an adult.   That is how we are spiritually.   We go through stages of growth.    Through those stages comes knowledge, strength, ability, and  understanding.   

We are not automatically full grown in faith.    It is our knowledge and understanding  of Him and His ability through our experiences that helps us to grow and to become strong in faith.

At What Point Is Your View Changing?

Who moved you?  What moved  you?  Why did you move?   To move means to change position, to change residence, or to take action.   What is it that is causing you to change your position?  Position means location, posture, or point of view.   At what point is your view changing?   Is your view changing based on God and His word or is God and His word changing your view.    When you look at things from God's view, you begin to see that you are an overcomer.    

Understand the tactic of the enemy.  The enemy understands the gates to your soul.   What you see and what you hear impact your mind, your will, and emotions.    So if he can get you to see from his point of view ... he can make you feel as though you are defeated rather than an overcomer.   So don't be moved.   Keep your view on God.  Always see from His point of view.

The Test, The Testimony, and The Labor Of Love Is All So Lives Can Be Transferred Into The Kingdom

We have to always remember that the work we do for God is a labor of love.   We need to understand the meaning of the word labor.    It means to work.   But it is also a part of childbirth.  The part where the contractions start all the way to delivery.    Contractions are in most cases painful.   When you are standing and believing God for breakthrough, in many cases you may experience some pain.    That's part of your spiritual labor.    What we have to realize is that after the spiritual labor comes delivery.   

To deliver means to convey.   It means to transport something from one place to another.   It means to surrender, to do, and to carry out.    One definition says that deliver means to give into another's possession or keeping.   So always remember and understand that your labor of love is all about bringing about deliverance.   Deliverance of God's people.    Remember to deliver means to give into another's possession or keeping.   The test, the testimony, the labor of love is all so that we can help transfer God's people  from the enemy's hands to Gods.

It's Time To Unweave Your Life So That God Can Take You To Another Level ...

What are you tangled in?   When something is tangled, it is complicated ... intricate ... and involved.  It is interlaced and mixed up.   It is difficult to unravel.   What is it in your life that has become interlaced with your walk with God?  What is it that has caused knot to be formed that is hindering you for going further?    What is it about your life that has to be unwoven, so that you can go to the next level in God?  
Understand, God said that He is not mocked.   One definition of mocked is deceived.    We cannot deceive God.   Whatever we do ... He sees.   So we can't expect to always get away with it.   Think about the word away.  We always look for "a" way when God has already show us "the" way.    He sent His Son as our guide.  To lead us and to show us the way to go.    Yet we stop at the crossroads of flesh.   Instead of following Jesus who has already said that He is the way, the truth, and the life ... we choose to be led by our flesh ... our wants ... and our desires.   Which in turn causes our lives to become tangled and mixed up.  

God wants you to unravel your life so that you can be free to walk in faith.  He wants your life unwoven so that "He" can take you to the next level in Him.

What Are You Allowing To Counteract Your Praise?

The word I heard this morning in my Spirit was "counteract".   It means to make ineffective or restrain or neutralize the usually ill effects of by means of an opposite force, action, or influence.   It is time to stop letting people, places, and things counteract your praise.   Counteract you worship.  Counteract your walk.  

Who or what is making you ineffective?  Who or what is restraining and neutralizing your praise?   Who or what is coming against you ... opposing you ... influencing you to go in the opposite direction than what you intended?   Whatever it is or whoever it is ... it's time to let it go.   It's time to push past it and do what God has told you to do.   Understanding that no one can praise God for you.   Just as no one can receive from God for you.   This is an individual walk.  

It is time to seek those people, places, and things that facilitate and assist in moving your forward in the plan of God.  Those things that undergird you and push you into a position of praise.

Are You Stifling God an Extinguishing The Fire and Presence Of God In Your Life?

Are you stifling God?   To stifle means to keep, hold back, or repress.    Are you keeping God to yourself?   Are you holding back on your walk with Him and still trying to walk in what you consider to be a "small sin"?   Are you repressing Him?  Extinguishing the fire and presence of God in your life?    It's time to stop. 

It's time to flow with God and to allow God to flow through you.   It's time to let go and let God.  Let Him be the leader and the guide.   We say we are letting Him lead ...yet we constantly try to guide Him according to our wants instead of letting Him lead to take care of our needs.   It's time to stop.   Make it a point today to let God be God.   To let Him flow freely in every area of your life.   Make it a point to free yourself of peoples opinions and to stop stifling, holding back, and repressing the power and the presence of God in your life.

Are You Ready For Change?

Are you tired?   Are you feeling weak?  Are you ready to let go?  Are you ready to give up?   Are you ready to quit?   ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE?   

God said to not be weary in well doing.   He said that in our weakness He is made strong.   He said to not let go of His promises.   He told us to hold on to our faith.   So quitting is not an option if you are going to walk it out with God.    Sometimes things are not going to look or work the way you expected them to ... but that doesn't change who God is.   He is still God.   He is still Jehovah Jireh ... our Provider.   He is still Jehovah Shalom ... our Peace.   He is still Jehovah Nissi ... our Banner of Protection.   He changes not.   However,  He is the one who can bring out the change that you need in your life.

Are You Making It A Point To Live A Life Surrendered?

So we are here.   We are in a new year.   More than that ... we are in a new day.  God said His mercy is renewed for you every day.   So if you are here, reading this post.   This very moment is a new beginning.   It's not just about new day years and new days, we have to understand that every moment is a gift from the Father.   A space in time for you to testify of His goodness, His grace, and His mercy.    So make this point in time a time of surrender.   Not just surrendering your life because many of us are already saved.  But surrendering our thoughts.   Our mindsets.   Our situations.   Our family.   Our desires.   Our fears.   Our failures.   Our accomplishments.  Our everything.   Take a moment to surrender it all ... knowing and understanding that we are nothing without Him.   

As you walk in this new year, walk "giving" God control.    Make it a point to live a life surrendered to the will, purpose, and plan of the Father.
