"Look Beyond Where You Are"

"Faith is the assurance of things you have hoped for, the absolute conviction that there are realities you've never seen." Hebrews 11:1 (The Voice Bible)

Faith means being sure, the assurance or tangible reality or the sure foundation of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even when we do not see it. When you have vision, you have to have faith. Faith is about taking a risk, going where you have never gone before, doing what you have never done before. It takes faith to have your dreams and goals come true.

By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Issac, there will be trying moments to test your faith, times when you fully have to abandon your natural inclinations and defer to God's word. In the critical moments of life you must use our faith and look beyond where you are, you will see your faith elevate to brand new levels of success and victories that you have never attained before.

Realize that whatever your going through today may simply be the training ground for your faith. Don't get cemented in where you are now that you can't move forward to the next step God has for you. There are times when our flesh rebels against our faith and our minds try to argue with reasoning and logic, but don't allow your human nature to collide with the divine plan of God over your life.

Today I encourage and challenge  you to take the risk of your convictions. "Look Beyond Where You Are" so that you can see into the place that the Lord has already prepared for you. Be bold, and confident, do not go backward but expect the Lord to perform His word on your behalf. There are realities you've never seen, "it is written; What no eye has seen, what no hear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived, those things God has prepared for those who love Him." I Corinthians 2:9

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you ...

THE SAFE PLACE

S.E.E.D. For Today___ Safety Scripture "God is our safe place and our strength. He is always our help when we are in trouble." Psalms 46:1 New Life Version In light of all that is going on in our world God is the most dependable person we know. Murder, and violence plague our city's and nothing seems to be safe anymore. When everything seems to be falling apart God is our safety, our refuge from the storms of life. He doesn't protect us in order to pamper us, He shelter's us so He can strengthen us to go back to life with it's duties and dangers. Trouble describes people who are in tight places in a corner and unable to get out, but we are not to be afraid. The earth may change and things will be in utter chaos, but in the Lord we have safety. Though everything around us and in us seems to be restless, God is in control. God is our safe place, in His will, in His hands He got the whole world, He formed it, shaped it, created it, and man co...

"Your Time Is Coming!"

"My Destiny and it's timing is in the hand of God." Psalms 16:5 Your way of life, your fortune, your fate, your portion comes from God. Knowing God is to know that He operates in rhythm, seasons, or times. Ecclesiastes 3 breaks down very intricately the seasons, or timing of a man's life or destiny. It tells us in vs.1 that, "Everything on earth has its own time and its own season" ( CEV ) or " Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses." ( GNT ) Being in sync rhythmically with God is so vital to the believer, operating in boundaries of our destiny or fortune, is the ability to flow in purpose. God has a purpose for each of us, you will find it to be your greatest joy as you discover the privilege of understanding the intention of God for your life. There are times as believers we find it difficult to accept what God has given us. There will be times when your ideas of what you want may get in the way of you and God...
