Let Your Journey Begin

How many times do we make decisions without consulting God for His guidance? Look back over your life and the decisions you made with and without Him. Let that be a guide for your future! Always consult with The Lord!

We take no credit! All of our victories come from The Lord! Praise Him for all the miracles in your life!

Never be ashamed to share your testimony of how God delivered you from your wilderness. You may be the very vessel that God will use to seed and water someone He is preparing for heaven!

While the church slept, many of our seminaries and universities filled up with professors who did not and do not believe in God's written Word on the page! Wake up church! It's time to take a stand for Christ!

Let us live our lives following Jesus so that we will never hear Him say, "I never knew you". Lord, we need Your guidance, Your Spirit, Your will and Your way to follow You in this life. May we commit our lives and surrender all to Your glory! May we live a life that You would call us Your friend.

God will speak to you through His written Word on the page! Every time you open your Bible, He speaks! Commit your life to His teachings! Watch your life change when your heart listens for His voice and you surrender to His instructions!

David fought the giant Goliath with the spiritual armor of God! His faith and courage should be an inspiration to all of us! We must remember that all of our battles belong to the Lord!

Just like God guided Paul and his companions; he will also guide you! Live by faith knowing that your steps are ordained by The Lord!

Sometimes you may feel like you are alone in this dark world but remember this: There are millions of us who stand along beside you! We will never give up and will continue to stand on the promises of our Lord!

Sometimes God may lead you into the desert of your life in order to show you His tenderness. Trust God. The desert may be just the place where your life begins.

Run straight into the arms of The Lord when you hear Him call! He will protect you in times of trouble. He will be with you through the storms of life.

God always answers our prayers. Sometimes it's yes while other times it's no! Most of the time for me, it's wait. Never stop praying! His answers are always for our good and for the good of His kingdom!

Just as you expect the sun to rise and the rain to fall, expect God to show up in your life. His promises are true and the scriptures cannot be broken!

Honi, the circle maker, is a marvelous story told to me by Mark Batterson and detailed in his book, 'The Circle Maker'. The story is a testimony of the power of one man's prayers that changed the course of history. Never underestimate the power of your prayers.

Typically our prayers are all about us. We start to pray immediately without waiting on the presence of The Lord. Wait on The Lord and when you come to the place of experiencing His presence, then speak your petitions. Pray with the expectation that He hears you and in His perfect timing, He will answer you.

When you read of all the strict rules and requirements in the Old Testament, you will come to realize these rules were set in place because God loves us! He wanted His chosen people to be set apart from the pagan nations that surrounded them. All because He cared so much about them. Just as He cares about us today!

Wisdom from heaven is pure, peace loving, considerate, full of mercy and sincere. People will know us by our behaviors. Let them see that we get our wisdom from heaven and not the ruler of this world.

The Lord is doing a new thing in your life! Don't look back! Let go of every stronghold in your life that is preventing you from becoming who He has created you to be! Your life is about to change. Do you not perceive it?

God gave Paul a thorn in his flesh to keep him from becoming proud and conceited. Sometimes a thorn in the flesh isn't a physical ailment but it can be a heartbreak or betrayal to bring you back to the Lord your God! Give thanks that when you are weak - God's strength will manifest in you!

In becoming more like Jesus, wouldn't our circumstances also need to be more like what He faced? If He was betrayed, why wouldn't we be betrayed? Doesn't trouble build our perseverance which builds character which leads to hope? Don't give up! Every trial will mold and refine us to become more like Jesus!
