Are You Discouraged With The Life God Has Given You?

What is your outlook today?   The word outlook is defined as a persons point of view or general attitude towards life.   What is your point of view?   What is your attitude towards the life that you have been given?   Are you happy or are you sad?    Are you pleased with the life that God has given  you or are your discouraged?    Understand that the word discouraged means to lose confidence or courage.   Have you lost confidence in God?   Where is your trust and  your belief?   Is it in the victory that has been given you or in yourself?

Understand that you must see your life through the eyes of God.   Your outlook must be defined by His purpose and His plan.   Not just what you want to do ... when you want to do it.    God said that He would give you the desires of your heart.   He is even known to create things that don't exist.   But your hope and your belief .... your confidence and your courage must be in Him and His plan for your life.

Are You Failing To See The Progress That Has Been Made Based On Your Need To Be In Control?

Why is it that you feel as though your strength is failing?   God's word fails not.    It is only when we are dependent upon our own strength that our strength seems to fail.     When we try to figure it out or when we consistently concentrate on what is not happening instead of looking at what has already happened.    How you are stronger than before.   How you feel better than before.   How you have a little more than before.    Because we want to see the full manifestation (which is what we should want) .... we fail to see the progress that has been made.     Understand that God's word must be in control.    In control of our thoughts .... in control of our action ..... in control of our reactions.   When you base your thoughts, actions, and reactions on the word of God, you understand what He has promised and that He said His promises fail not.

Trust God's word today.   Stop trying to figure it out and work it out on your own.    You are not your own.   You belong to God.    Understand that He is your keeper and your provider.   He is your healer and your deliverer.   He is  your source and your resource.    If you don't see it yet .... understand with faith it is just a matter of time.   The thing is .... we can't control the timing.   We can't control what God does and how He does it.   We can only control our trust and our faith in Him.    Amen.

Are You Tired .... The Bible Says To Trust, Lean On, and Cast Your Cares On Him....

Are you tired yet?   Are you tired of doing it your way.   Of trying to figure it out?   Of trusting in your own ability and your own way of doing things?   Are you tired of your current situation and your current circumstance?    If so .... it only means you are ready.    You are ready to trust God.    It is only at the point of exhaustion that you truly yield to God's power and God's grace.    As long as you feel as though you can do it .... or you can do it ..... you can never get to where God wants you to be.   Where your total trust and reliance is on and in Him.     The Bible says come all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest.    It says to trust in the Lord with all thine heart and to lean not to your own understanding.    It says to cast your cares on God because He cares for you.    It says to wait on Him.    Think about it .... you have to come to Him, trust Him, lean on Him, and cast your cares on Him.    It says nothing about trying to figure it out or do it on your own.   Yet that is what we do.
Today let's take a different perspective.   Let's see God totally as our supply and our resource.   Let's see Him as our comfort and peace.   Let's see Him as God.   Amen.

You Are Not Stuck In Yesterday .... Today Is A New Opportunity To Begin Again ....

To begin again....   How often do we desire to start all over again?   To have a second chance?   To erase what just happened and be able to make a different decision or to do it a different way.     Aren't you thankful that God's mercy is renewed every day.   Today is a new day to begin again.    No we can't erase our yesterday..... but we can build upon our today.    When faced with the same questions or the same desires .... we can now make a God decision.    A God decision is always based on knowledge.   Knowledge of who He is and knowledge of what He wants.     Are you living in a place where you can let go and let God?   Where you let go of the way you want to do it and let God's word overtake and determine your decisions in life.    

Take time today to step out of yesterdays way of doing things.    Do what you do based on His word.   Do what you do based on His will.   Do what you do based on your desire to please Him.    It's time to let God be God and to praise Him for who He is.    Praise Him for renewing His mercy daily in your life and for Him giving you another opportunity to begin again.    Amen.....

Do You Really Realize Where Your Strength Comes From?

Do you realize where your strength comes from?   It comes from knowing who God is.   When you know who God is ... you are joyous.   You rejoice in the victory that you know has already been won for you.   It comes from knowing He is Alpah and Omega.   The beginning and the end.   Knowing that God has the final word on "everything" that is going on in your life right now.    It comes from knowing  you have been set free.   Knowing that everything that seems to be holding you right now is just a facade.   The reality is .... God has set you free.   He has released you from any and all things that might try to hold you.     Your strength comes from knowing you are healed.    Jesus took stripes on His back for your healing.   You have to know the power that comes from the blood that was shed.    The same blood that covers you and cleanses you.    

Understand your strength can never be in your own ability.   Your strength .... the power and the endurance for you to make it ... comes only from the joy of knowing who God is.

Are You Still Pursuing God In Your Moments "After"?

What are you doing in the moments after?   After the blessing?   After the healing?   After the breakthrough?    What are you doing?   Are you worshipping and praising?    Are you lifting up His name?   Or are you acting like you did it on your own and in your own strength?  

We need to check our "afters"?    Are we still pursuing God in our moments after?    With the same fervency and fire that we did when we needed the breakthrough?   Or has our ability to breathe after the trial turned into our sitting down on the things of God?   Are we becoming to relaxed?  

Understand God wants to do things for, in, and through your life but He already knows what you will do in the "after".    Make up your mind that your pursuit will not be hindered when you get to moments of breakthrough.    Make up your mind that you will still pursue God with the same fervency and fire.

What Is It That You Are Revealing To Those Around You?

John 17:6 says  “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word."  My question to you is what are you revealing to those around?   Jesus said that He had revealed God to those around Him.   The word reveal means to uncover, unfold, and disclose.    It means to take the veil off.    To show forth what was hidden.    


What are you revealing?   Are you revealing the Father to your friends and to your family?   How about to your co-workers or acquaintances?   When they see you .... what do they see?   Do they see a life that is steadfast and unmovable?   A life that is totally dependent on the Father or one that is trying to do it all on their own?


Understand that your actions are always  unveiling your trust and your motives?   Jesus showed that His trust was in the Father and His motive was to unveil who God is to people throughout the earth.    Will you be able to say as Jesus did to God that you revealed Him to those around you?
