Do You Understand That The Final Outcome Is In God.... You May Not Be Able To See It ... But It Is Still There ....

So exactly how are you looking at your test and your trial?   Are you looking at it as an opportunity for increase.   An opportunity for God to move and manifest in your life?   Or are you looking at it in a negative light.    Everything that you go through is not necessarily bad.   When things appear to be bad .... remember that God said that He works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.    

Understand the victory that is hidden behind the trial.    When something is hidden .... it can't be seen.   It is not open to be viewed.   That doesn't mean it is not there.   It just means it hasn't been unveiled yet.    Start looking at your trials as opportunities for God to bless you.  To increase you.   To take you to your next level in Him.    Stop taking the negative approach.   Take the God given approach.   The approach that says that God is in control.   That His plan will be perfected in your life.   The approach that knows the final outcome is "in" Him and the ultimate control is in Him.    Understand it is "in" Him.   When something is "in" something else .... you can't see it .... but it still exists.    Amen.'

Ministered By William Murphy

Do You Prefer God Above All Else? Or Is Your Preference Towards Those Things That Are Habitual and Customary?

What is your personal preference?   Do you prefer God above all else?   Do you prefer Him above the things that coach your flesh.   To coach means to train, teach, and to educate.   There are things in life that train you.   That teach you.   That educate you to the ways and wants of the world and there is God.   We have to be in a place where we prefer God above all else.    Above the wants.   Above the desires.   Above the things that we have become so accustomed to.     The word accustomed means habitual or customary.   What has become habitual and customary in your life?    Are you willing to let those things go in order to live for and in God?   

God's desire is that you live for Him.   God's desire is that you live in Him.    Make it personal today.   Your walk, your talk, your life, and your lifestyle.     Prefer God above all things.     Let your desire be for Him and the things in life that represent Him.    Let Him be your source and your strength.     Don't allow the ungodly things of the world to become the things that you prefer in life.

Do You Really Know Who You Are? Are You Identifying Yourself With The Nature and Culture Of God?

Do you really know who you are?    God created you.   He made you in His image and after His likeness .... yet you say you are trying to find yourself.   Trying to understand your purpose and His plan for your life.    The first step to knowing who you are is recognizing whose you are.   When you know your parents .... you can begin to identify your nature and your culture.     Understand today that God is your parent.    You are created with the nature of God.   The culture of God is defined by beliefs, behaviors, and characteristics that are common to God.  We are born in His culture but we have allowed other things to cultivate us.   When something is cultivated, it is broken up in preparation for sowing or planting.   The question is .... what are you allowing to be sowed and/or planted in your spirit, in your heart, in your mind, and in your life?   

You have within you the nature of your Father .... God.   You were born to live in the culture of God.    Define yourself by what your Father has said.   Believe His word.   Behave according to His word.   Be characterized by His word.   In other words .... let the seal of who God is be  upon your life.   

Understand who you are.   Don't allow people, places, situations, or circumstances define you.    Regardless of what the world says .... you are what what God has already said.

What Is Keeping Your From Experiencing More Of Him ..... Don't Let Your Life Be A House Divided.....

Are you allowing God to lead you?   Are you allowing Him to strengthen you?  Through all your hurt and all your pain are you leaning and trusting on Him?    Understand that God knows all.   He knows how you think, how you feel, what you did yesterday, and what you will do today.  So nothing is hidden from Him.   However, it is still up to us to yield to Him.   To give things over to Him.    God is a gentle - man.    He will not come and overtake you  and consume you unless you invite Him in.    Unless you give him permission to do so.    Although He desires to rule and reign in our lives .... He wants us to desire Him also.    He wants us to open up to Him.   To yield to Him.   To seek and search Him in every decision concerning our lives.

What is it that is keeping you from experiencing more of Him.   From understanding His goodness and His grace.   From living for Him completely.    We tend want to live for Him partially.   Where we give Him part of who we are and try to reserve portions of our lives for ourselves.   Understand that life all works together.   You can't be yielded to God in your thoughts and when it comes to your actions you do what you want to do.    You body is God's house.....His temple.   Understand that the Bible says that a house divided will fall.    Don't allow your house (your life) to fall based on division within you.   Where you want to serve God in partiality.    That is not His best and that is definitely not His plan.

Do You Really Believe God? What Are Your Responses To Life?

Do you really believe God?   I know you say you do .... but do you really?   Do you believe that He will come through?   Do you believe that He will heal you?   Do you believe that He is who He said He is?    What is your reaction to the things that are going on in your life?   When it doesn't work out the first time.   Do you give up and quit?  Or do you wait and trust?   

If you want to know if you are really believing God..... check yourself?   Check your responses to life.   Are you casting down imaginations and everything that exalts itself against the knowledge of who God is and what God has said?    Are you turning your back on the situation or standing and trusting God to come through?  

God did not say that our lives would be free of problems .... He said that when we go through things in our life that He is with us and He will carry us.   He said for us to cast our care on Him for He cares for us.    Understand the protection that has been provided for you and your life.   Understand that your Father sees all and He knows all.   Understand that He will never leave you nor forsake you.   Understand that He is there to wipe away your tears and to dry your eyes.   Understand the characteristics of your Father and learn how to trust Him through the good and the bad.   Amen.

"I'll Just Worship You"

Ministered By Tony Sutherland

We Hear God .... But Are We Hearkening?

We hear God but are we hearkening to what we hear Him say?   To hearken means to listen attentively and to obey.    We hear things continuously all day long.   We hear people talk all around us.   However, there must be a distinction when you hear the voice of God.   The distinguishing factor must be obedience.   It must be that you act on what you hear God say to you.   

How often do we shake off what God is saying and make an excuse when we really want to do something.    Understand those questions that you "ask yourself" when you are getting ready to do something .... are sometimes God talking to you.    We have to begin to check what we do and what we say with God's word.    Sometimes it requires just asking ourselves is this of God or would God be pleased with what I am doing.   If the answer is no .... we have to be strong enough to walk away from it or to let it go.   

It's not always easy to hearken to the plan of God for your life.   However, there is strength, power, and blessings that come through your obedience.   If you begin to practice the presence of God in your life ... hearkening will become a automatic and natural reaction.    You will begin to know His word and trust His plan for your life.

Are You Taking The Time To Digest God's Word?

Sometimes we are all about consuming.   We say God ....we want more of you.    We need more of you.   We have to have more of you.   My question to you today is .... are you taking the time to digest the word of God that you already have?  To digest means to break down into substances that can be used properly by the body.    Are you breaking God's word down in a way that you can properly walk it out?   Believe it?   Understand it?    Or are you just consuming it?   Filling yourself up on it .... but not truly understanding what it is you are consuming.   

Yes God wants you to want more of Him.   To desire more of Him.   To learn more about Him.   But He also wants you to walk out the word He gives you.   To believe the word He gives you.   To have faith in the word that He gives you.    If you continue to get more of Him and never truly walk in what you have already gotten ... you have to ask yourself are you properly digesting the word of God in your life?    Are you getting the vital necessities out of the word?   Or are you just consuming the totality of God word and never breaking it down to where it is applicable to your life?  

Fill yourself up on His word .... but break it down in a way to which you can easily apply it to the situations in  your life.    Amen.
