MESSENGER TURNED RULER
Most people know about Hanani’s famous brother, Nehemiah. He was the one who, against all odds, with the favor of God rebuilt the wall of Jerusalem.
FOCUS - STEADFAST GAZE
Focus is everything. What you and I focus on could very well determine our victory in many situations. When I think of how important focus is, I often think of an account in the Old Testament.
REVEALED TO US
The Holy Spirit is the revealer of all truth, even the deep truths of God. For someone to walk by faith, it must come to them from the logos, the written Word of God. The logos must be taught, or preached, or read, or meditated upon.
WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE?
In order for anything to be used properly, you have to find out what the creator of the product intended it to be used for.
BE THANKFUL AND SAY SO
One of my mentors said that the Lord asked him, “Do you want to know how you can increase your capacity to receive from Me?” and that he had answered very quickly and said, “Yes Lord, I do.”
IT’S WHERE YOU FINISH
It is not where you start, but where you finish that is important. When I was thinking about David's mighty men, I looked back on how they came about.
RENEW YOUR MIND TO SEE WHO YOU ARE
Before someone fails outwardly, they fail on the inside first. The same is true of success.
CORRESPONDING ACTIONS
The woman with the issue of blood did hear something because she had faith to do something from what she had heard and began to say something.
LEAVE IT AND RISE UP
The Lord told Levi to follow Him. So, Levi had a choice to follow or start giving all the excuses of why he couldn’t do it right then like, “I really want to obey you Lord, but now is not a good time for me. You know I love you Lord, but I just can’t do it right now.”
KNOW THE SEASON
There are four seasons of weather in most places, spring, summer, fall, and winter; and in most places, you know what time of year it is by the weather.
HELPING OTHERS
I think one of the most rewarding things you and I can do is help people. I know that you and I have things going on, issues, and problems in our own lives; but I have found that the principle of sowing and reaping that is taught in the Word of God also works for things, issues, and problems.
DOING THE WORKS OF JESUS
We are called to do the works of Jesus on the Earth. We are His body, and He is counting on us to do what He has called us to do.
Laborers to the harvest field
If there has ever been a time when the harvest is great, it is now. The projection for the world population is estimated to be over 8 billion in 2025, and there is no real way to know exactly how many of those are truly born again.
Avoiding Offense
If you want to change your life forever, there is one area that you must get a grip on, and that is offense. It is a key to so many areas of your life.
Complete Restoration
Father God shows His love to us by restoration. Of course, it is always best when we, as sons and daughters, realize that everything the Father has is ours but also, that those who have gone away and return to Father’s house are able to receive complete restoration too.
Place Called “There”
Jesus is your Shepherd. He wants to lead you somewhere. He wants to lead you to green pastures and still waters.
