I call Jesus Lord!!
He is my Savior, my Redeemer, my Prince of
Peace and my covenant deliverer.
He came to save me (and many others) from our sin, from our poverty, from our fears, from our jealousy, our anger, our bitterness, our loneliness, our
confusion, our sickness and our disease and set our
spirits free.
Now in response to all that He has done for us, we need to get in line with His purpose, with His Will and with His kingdom. Let's get prepared for His arrival!
You know the prayer, "Thy kingdom come, Thy Will be done on earth ...."
Do we really understand what that means? What is His purpose? What is His Will? What is His kingdom?
Isn't it to save mankind from this world and to save us from the grasp of Satan. Isn't it to redeem us so we can return with Him and He can bring us all to His kingdom? Isn't that why we were saved in the first place?
Along with our salvation we also received benefits such as forgiveness, healing, prosperity, deliverance, the fruits of His Spirit and His anointing.
There is so much that we are not allowing Him to give us when it comes to our inheritance.
There is so much we could use to His purpose and for His glory.
John 14:22 "....Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us
and not to the world at large? Jesus replied: All who love me will
do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make
our home with each of them........."
God is being manifested in us...in US! His manifestation comes when we
position ourselves to receive it...through obedience to His Word,
through our love for Him. Manifestation of His covenant!
Jesus is the covenant deliverer (the deliver of His promises) and through Him we can receive His promises if our minds are set on Him, His purpose, His Will.
We have to tell the world about Jesus, about salvation, about the covenant God has made with us so that many will be saved. Many, many, many.
Your prosperity will come through wisdom and through revelation as you
continue to seek Him in your life.
God knows how to take care of His children.
Jesus knows how to be our LORD and SAVIOR! So, don't worry about that....just love
Him today, get wisdom through His Word and through His anointed teachers.
Remain in prayer listening to Him as He reveals Himself to you and
then agree to do what He has called you to do with all the love in your heart.
Share that love with the unsaved, the captives, the hungry and the neglected.
Bring them the good news!
That is what I'm trying to do when I am sharing my words and thoughts with you.
Are you prepared for His arrival? Get ready NOW!

Do You Ever Feel This Way?
I wonder if anyone feels like this every once in a while. Often times you come
to a point in your life where you need to re-evaluate the status of things. You need to look at things and see if what you are doing is what you really like... or...is what you are doing making you happy?
Jesus mentioned that He came to give us abundant life. Honestly, I can't
think of any other way to live my life than abundantly!! BUT... what does that really mean for me or for you?
Do you really feel alive? Are you enjoying everything that you do?
If not, well...you should....including doing the laundry and cleaning up your kids rooms. WOW!!!! Now that's an incredible idea!
I stumbled across something that has helped me to discover my core values...not
just considering the stuff that is in my head and sounds good, but the true core
values in my heart.
Being alive for me is being happy, frustrated, angry, afraid, scared,
confused, tired...feeling all the feelings that one person can experience. It is actually "feeling" my way through a lifestyle that just keeps experiencing all that God brings to it.
It keeps me expectant of how God works in circumstances beyond my imagination or natural capabilities. I asked the Lord to bring it all to me... the challenges, the changes, new adventures, different experiences and the uncomfortable moments.
Jesus wants me to keep moving, to keep being challenged, to be
frustrated, to be ridiculed at times, to be rejected, to come
across mediocrity, laziness, closed mindsets, to discover, to
succeed, to bless, and to give ... just so that I would keep pushing
myself to a higher level of dependency on Him and really see and feel
what faith is about. So I can really experience what I am made of and what He
is all capable of doing.
Do I believe that God can do anything? Or do I just say that God can do anything? Do I walk the walk or do I just talk the talk? I expect that God will do everything in my life according to my measure of faith and willingness to experience it to its
fullest.
I am not saying that I am done with searching my heart....I keep
praying that His spirit will keep bringing up changes that need to be
made. This is all part of a wondrous process.
The important thing is....that I am willing to go....willing to experience...willing to let go...willing to do whatever.
I can see where God is taking me, what He wants for me, what this abundant life is beginning to look like.
Being in business is not just about work and mone that it generates. It is also about
becoming someone other people want to follow. I am glad I took the time to realize this.
What a wonderful counselor He is! He's searching every area of my
life and bringing light into my darkness.
He is my marvelous Redeemer! My wonderfully amazing Savior who has an
amazing love for me!
Have an abundant day today and be blessed!!!!!

When Things Go From Bad To Worse
A great example of this would be Moses. Being raised by Pharoah's daughter gave him a lot that he would never have had; had he been raised a Hebrew. In fact, being a Hebrew child might have even meant death for him.
But instead he was raised in the house of Pharoah and his life took quite a different turn of events. That is until...
He identified himself with the Hebrew people. They were his people. When suddenly he met up with God then things in his life got worse. God reminded him through the burning bush that he would deliver his people. So Moses began a relationship with the Lord and talked to him about the venture.
After Moses' 1st interaction with Pharoah, Pharoah told him, in no uncertain terms,
"I do not know the Lord and I will not let the people of Israel go". Pharoah's response was in direct correlation to the facts that 1) This was a threat to Pharoah's deity. Pharoah wanted to be the people's Lord and God. He didn't want to relinquish his power and judgement to someone else. He was not willing to submit to another as God. 2) This was a threat to Pharoah's economy. Pharoah was not willing to let his labor force go. The Hebrews were his slaves and did all his work for him. They didn't cost him anything either. So why would he want to give up his free work force.
Finally, after enduring all the plagues which the Lord put upon Pharoah; after his wizards were unable to copy the plagues and God mentions 5 times in the book of Exodus, "I AM THE LORD" does Pharoah submit. It took the mighty hand of God to move Pharoah.
Th story teaches us that we are to be encouraged through our trials and tribulations because problems develop patience and character. This is what happened to Moses even though it started out a very tough road plagued with problems of its own.

GOD Loves Us More Than Anything
We, who believe in Jesus Christ, know that God loves us. We also know
that He died on the cross to pay the price for our sins. So He forgives us
everytime that we sin. We know that He has given us freedom to
be who He created us to be and we live in anticipation knowing that He will return very soon to get us...His second coming is called "the Rapture". We will ascend with Him into Heaven and sit at the right hand of God and reign with Him forever afterwards. Right?
Aren't we so lucky to know that we have this to look forward to? That earth is just kind of a waiting room until we go home to be with the Lord. It gives the unsaved an opportunity to discover the joy of knowing Jesus and believing in God.
We can be so thankful for that. In the meantime, we should do the best we can...make God proud of the lives we live especially since we say we are living for Him. Let's not make ridicule or a mockery of the Christian name. I don't know how many people I know of that do this. They really do give Christians a bad name. They are hypocritical, self-serving, arrogant, stingy and a list of other negative traits. People relate being a Christian with some very wrong attitudes. Let's change this.
Let go and let God.
