May Word From The Word- "You Are Special"

Happy May 2009!
On a Wednesday night teaching, I talked about being special. I want you to know that you are special to God. It doesn’t matter from where you have come or even where you are at the present time, God’s love for you is steadfast. He is not a moody God and does He have "favorites". If you are Born Again then YOU are His favorite.

I have heard it said that we are all people of God. Well, as people, we are not all His children. That privilege only comes to those who chose to accept Him into their life. Once you have, then you are special because you are now one of His kids.

As Children of God, we have an inheritance. The Bible says that we are heirs of God and joint heirs through Jesus. It tells us that we have become the righteousness of God. That means that you are made right by Him. It is not something that you did, but what He did when you were Born Again.

I love all the children of our church, I really do, but the ones that belong to me, well.... you know what I mean! So it is with our God! He loves all people, but there is something special about His kids. Are you one of His? Then you are special, highly favored and blessed!

Marching Along

As we enter into the middle of March, how great it would be to march into all that God has in store for us. I was reading in Psalm 5:12 how that God says He surrounds the righteous with favor as with a shield.

Think about that, right now you are surrounded with God's favor. Reguardless which way you turn, there His favor is made available to you.

Our part is to believe that this is true because His word says it is.You may not look or feel favored at the moment but your faith in His word can cause things to turn around.

Declare this with me in faith,"Lord I choose to walk in your favor,Your benefits, blessings, and favor surround me. I will not worry, be afraid, or be stressed.Your word declares that you are for me, then who or what can overcome me."

Don't Get Confused

Hello Blessed Ones
I hope this new year has started out in your favor. Even if it hasn’t I am glad to tell you that it’s not over yet so don’t give up on your victory. I preached a message entitled, “Don’t Get Confused”. A lot of people seem to be in the days we live.

I want to remind you that you are the head and not the tail, above and not beneath. Even if things are not looking great for you at the moment, you are still WHO God says that you are.
Don’t get confused into thinking that you are any less than what he says. Psalm 103, verses one thru five remind us not to forget that we have benefits already set up for us through what Jesus has already done.

Remember that you do have an enemy, an adversary that looks for someone that he can devour. Make up your mind that it won’t be you. Jesus defeated the enemy with the written Word and it still has the ability to do the same for you when you speak it out of your mouth with faith in the power of His Word.

Read Galatians 6:9 and see the importance of your not giving up during adverse times. If this message helps you then pray about getting it into the hands of someone else and let it encourage them. May His best always be at you house.

Godly Wisdom

I hope this New Year has gotten off good to a good start for you!
I have been teaching on the subject of Godly Wisdom. I believe that this is one of the greastest assets that we can have in this day we live. In Proverbs, we are told, "happy is the man that finds wisdom...her proceeds are better than gold, silver or rubies."

Once you become established in the Wisdom of God, the Word declares that you will never be shaken. You will be confident in your decisions and directions that you take in life.

In the Book of James, we read that if you ask for wisdom, God will give it liberally. It goes on to say we must ask in faith believing that we recieve it and it will be given to us.

Maybe you need to ask God for His wisdom in a matter. He can and will give it to you if you ask in faith and then be ready to act on his ways. 1st Corinthians tells us that we have received the mind of Christ that we can be instructed by Him.

Begin thanking Him for His wisdom and declaring that your steps are ordered of the Lord. His Word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.

The Word as a Seed

I was using an acorn for an object lesson the other day. Holding the acorn in my hand while standing under the tree that produced it, their seem to be no way to explain how that tree was at one time just an acorn.
I started thinking about the Word of God and how that it is like a seed. It appears to be a book with paper and ink, just like any other book. The differences are many but the one thing I saw was that like the acorn that produced that tree, so the Word of God can be productive in your life and mine.
Once the seed of God’s Word is placed in a heart of faith, the potential of that seed can come forth. God’s Word has the ability to produce for you and me. I think with a New Year right around the corner it would be a good time to start getting His Word in our hearts and mix faith with it and bring forth the potential of the Word.
If an acorn can produce a tree, how much more can the Word of God produce for you and me. Began to declare His Word over your life, friends , love ones and this nation. Mary said to the Angel of the Lord, ”Let it be to me according to your Word.”
