So What Is Next On Your Agenda Of Life ... Be Careful Not To Overlook Your Source and Your Strength When Setting Your Goals

What’s next?   What do you have next on your agenda of life?   We all tend to plan what it is we want to do and what it is we want to accomplish in life.   So what is it that  you have set your mind and your desire on?   Is it for a new car?   How about a new house?    Is it to get a degree?   Or to accomplish a new task?   

There are many things that we can do and that God wants us to do …   However, we need to make sure that we keep Him in whatever it is we are trying to accomplish.   We also have to understand what He wants to accomplish in us as well.    Sometimes we can get so goal oriented that we forget about the fact that we can’t accomplish anything without His help.   We end up trying to do it all in our own strength.   We look at what we are able to do and not what God wants to do through us.   Every accomplishment in life should always lead back to Him.   What He allowed us to do and how He allowed us to do it.    We have to be careful not to overlook our source and our strength.    For without Him we could do nothing and we could be nothing.   

So go ahead and set your goals.   However, before you set them …. make sure it is what God wants you to do.    Ask Him for help prior to getting in a stressful situation and be sure that He is still your number one priority in everything you do.

What Is It That You Are Bartering Your Life For? Nothing Is Valuable Enough To Trade The Blood Of Jesus For......

Are you sacrificing the life that God has given you in order to please other people?   Understand today that your life is a tool.    A tool is something that is used in order to carry out a particular function.    God is using your life to carry out what He wants to do in the earth.    The question is .... are you bartering your life?   The word barter means to exchange for other goods and services.  

So often we see things we want or want to do.   Whether it be people, places, or things.    The question is .... why are we so quick to sacrifice this life God has given us for those things.    We are constantly bartering our lives.     Trading our righteousness for sin.   Trading our right standing to do what we know is totally against the word and will of God.   We allow the temptations of life to cause us to trade in the blessings that God has given us.    Why is that so?   Why are we so quick to give away what God saw as so precious?

It's time to stop making trades with our lives based on temptation.   It's time to keep this life together the way that God created it to be.   It's time to resist temptation and learn how to live the life that God has ordained for us without yielding to the temptations around us.    Count your life as precious understanding that the ultimate price was paid for it.   There is nothing on earth valuable enough to barter the blood of Jesus for.   Understand that YOUR life is covered with the blood.

What Are You Quenching Your Thirst With? Are You Adding Additives To Your Life?

What are you thirsty for?  The Bible says ... O taste and see that the Lord is good.....   But my question to you is .... what are YOU thirsty for.   Better yet ... what are you quenching your thirst with.  Are you quenching your thirst with what is available or are your waiting on what is beneficial.    Are you drinking the water of life or the kool-aid of life.    They both quench your thirst ... however, one contains additives.   Understand that certain additives have proven to be harmful for your body.    Therefore when you add unnecessary things to your life ... they too could prove to be harmful to your walk with God.   

We have to get to a place in life where we quench our thirst with what is pure, what is just, and what is right.   Not just what appears to be good.     An apple can look good on the outside .... yet it can be rotten at the core.   We have to stop living our lives based on appearance and begin to live our lives based on God's word.   His word say .... taste and see.    Every part of who God is .... is good.     Drink the water of life and allow your life to flourish in His word.

Are You Living Your Life Knowing "God Will" .... By Doing So .... You Are Living In The "Will of God"

Have you lost your focus?   The word focus means the center of interest.   It means to concentrate.    Is God still the center of your interest or have you been encompassed by people, places, and things.    We have to make sure that our lives are centered around God.  Around His purpose and around His plan.   He should be the core of everything we believe, everything we do, and everything we say.    It should all unfold to reveal God.    Even when you cry .... your tears should reveal your trust, belief, and release to God.

The things is ... if you begin to lose focus ... you will begin to concentrate on the problem instead of God the solution.   You will begin to concentrate on the sickness ... instead of God the healer.    You will begin to focus on the need ... rather than God the provider.    You have to get to the place of knowing that "God Will".   He will do what He said He would do.   He will heal you.   He will deliver you.   He will provide for you.   If you live as though "God Will" .... you will live in the "Will of God".    Amen.....

You Cannot Express Joy and Grief At The Same Time .... They Are Both Emotions .... Will You Do As God Said and Rejoice In Him or Be Consumed By Your Situation?

Why are you crying?   Do you not realize that your Daddy owns it all?   Do you not realize that your Daddy is the producer of love ... the producer of peace .... the producer of joy?    Everything that you are going through right now ... your Daddy knows.    For He has said that He is an ever present help in your times of trouble.   He said that He knows what you need and He is faithful and just to provide you with it.   He has said that He will never leave you ... nor will He forsake you .... nor will He leave your seed begging for bread.   So again I ask why are you crying?   

Crying is a sign of grief.   Grief is brought on by sadness, distress, pain, and sorrow.    Don't forget your Daddy is the King of kings and the Lord of lords.    He has already said for you to have joy in Him for He is your strength.   The Bible says in Philippians 4:4 to rejoice in the Lord always.   You cannot express joy and grief at the same time.    They are both emotions ....   You will either express one or express the other.   Which will it be?   Will you do as God said or be consumed by what is going on in your life?    Allow God's power ... His love .... His joy to overtake you now in Jesus name.

Are You Trying To Use Yesterday's Answers To Resolve Today's Situation?

Are yesterday's answers today's expectations?   Are you expecting what God said to you yesterday to still be your answer for today or are you seeking Him regarding the new thing that He is doing in your life?   God is ever speaking.   The question is ... are we listening?    Are we hearing the path that He is telling us to take?   Are we stepping in the right direction?    Understand that yesterday's answers are not meant to resolve today's situation.

God said that He would lead us and He would guide us.    He said for us to have faith in Him.   The thing is .... if we are still trying to use the answer He gave us yesterday .... How can we truly walk in the new thing He is doing?   How can we know His word is true?   How can live out the fullness of what He is trying to do in our lives if we are still trying to live by the answer He gave us regarding what we went through yesterday.

God said to seek Him and He shall be found.    He said to trust Him and He would direct our path.   There is a path in which the final destination is Him.   You have not arrived to where He wants you to be.    The path is already paved but you have to seek Him in order to know whether you should go left or right.    

Yesterday's answers was for the things you went through yesterday.   Seek Him for direction today.   He has a plan for you ..... but it is only unveiled as you seek to follow Him.   Amen.

What Is Dwelling In The Residence Of Your Life and Are Others Able To Drink From The River That Flows Through You?

What is your body holding residence to?   What  thoughts are residing in your mind?   What words are at the door of your mouth?   What motives are being seen through the windows of your heart?   Understand today that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost.  Have you allowed something else to invade that space?   The word invade means to enter and to occupy.   It means to come in with hostile intent.    Have you allowed the enemy to have room in your life?   Have you been deceived into thinking that his intents were just and honorable?    Understand today that there are no honorable intents in the mind of the enemy.    Every intent leads to the same result.   His intent is to subdue you.   In other words ... he wants to come in and lower your intensity and your strength in and for the things of God.   

Remember the purpose of your body.   It is a dwelling place for God.    God has already told you what to think.   Did He not say to think on what was just, pure, and of a good report.    God wants you to say what He says about you.   If you begin to line up your thoughts .... your thoughts will generate words from your mouth that are in line with what God says about you.   How about your heart?   God said to guard your heart for out of it flows the issues of life.   Understand that the love of God must flow from your heart.     You should not allow anyone or anything to penetrate that place with evil.   Don't allow hatred and strife to overtake your heart.   For these things are considered issues.    An issue is something that is put out or sent forth (distributed) in any form.    What are you putting out from your heart?   Are you sending forth love?

Take time to clean your house today ... your temple for God.   Make sure that there is nothing taking up residence there that should not be.    Make sure that the river that flows from your dwelling (the inside of  you) is a river where others can come drink and be refreshed in the things of God.    Remember the river of God not only flows to you ... it is designed to flow through you.   Amen.
