Stay

"Till I come, devote yourself to [public and private] reading, to exhortation (preaching and personal appeals), and to teaching and instilling doctrine. Do not neglect the gift which is in you, [that special inward endowment] which was directly imparted to you [by the Holy Spirit] by prophetic utterance when the elders laid their hands upon you [at your ordination]. Practice and cultivate and meditate upon these duties; throw yourself wholly into them [as your ministry], so that your progress may be evident to everybody. Look well to yourself [to your own personality] and to [your] teaching; persevere in these things [hold to them], for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who hear you." (1 Timothy 4:13-16 AMP)


  Stay built up individually and as a body. Read the Word, pray, and pray in the spirit for yourself, your family, church family, and Pastors! Listen, we were not chosen to just blow around in the wind but given the anchor of the Word, and a guide that cannot get lost in the Holy Spirit.

Arrows

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;
They shall not be ashamed,
But shall speak with their enemies in the gate." Psalm 127:3-5 (NKJV)

 Have you ever thought how here in the Word children are described not as your "best friend", that something that was missing in your life, or your caretaker when you get older. They are described as "arrows in the hand of a warrior"! Our children are brought here to be mighty men and women of God. Treat them that way, pray for them that way. Pray our children are bold, strong and fearless in the Lord as they walk in the world today. Pray for the parents/adults in their lives are strong models of what living a Godly life is.

A Time for Everything!

Ecclesiastes 3 1-8

A Time for Everything

1 For everything there is a season,
a time for every activity under heaven.
2 A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to plant and a time to harvest.
3 A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up.
4 A time to cry and a time to laugh.
A time to grieve and a time to dance.
5 A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a time to turn away.
6 A time to search and a time to quit searching.
A time to keep and a time to throw away.
7 A time to tear and a time to mend.
A time to be quiet and a time to speak.
8 A time to love and a time to hate.
A time for war and a time for peace.

 Think about your prayers, as we pray for Israel and our country (United States). Are you staying in a place led by the Holy Spirit or are you letting your "head" get in the way? When we have spent so much time praying a specific thing we start to let ourselves get in the way at times, not on purpose for sure but we can start to think we know what's best.....What about the Holy Spirit? He was sent here as our helper to guide us be sure your taking the time to pray IN THE SPIRIT and to take the time to LISTEN. Our Father has many plans and has given us a helper that will show us the way, but we must remember to listen, hear and act! Tonight pray in the Spirit for our country and Israel and then listen for what He has to share with you. Then when action is called for take that step of faith and go!

Not Unknown

 Thinking about how so much of the work of personal and church ministry is unseen. Now that is the key here, it may be unseen but not UNKNOWN. Habakkuk 2:2-3

" Write the vision...Though it tarries, wait for it;Because it will surely come...."

 He gives us each a vision that we need to keep before us. It is our future, so we know the future just not all the details, just yet. Tonight lets pray for clarity of vision, for each of us to act on the God given ideas and plans they have been given. No holding back, moving forward to the KNOWN future, God's plan for us is good and not evil (Jer.29:11) and we know that God gives us victory through Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:57).

Don't know what to pray?

Much is going on in the world today, as Christians we need to stay alert as we pray for our Nation and Israel, not because of fear but for direction and answers from the Holy Spirit. Y(our) prayers do major things, releasing Gods plan here on earth. Prayers are the first line in Gods army. Be willing. 

 Don't know what to pray? Pray in the spirit, pray for understanding, you will receive! Start your prayers with Psalm 91, 121-122, 100, 118 We are praying these Psalm specifically tonight for Israel that leadership is bold and filled with supernatural wisdom pertaining to decisions being made now.

 Love and Blessings!

"We were sent to speak for Christ..." (2 Cor. 5:20).

 Another version of the Bible says, "Now then we are ambassadors for Christ." When you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior you became a representative for Him in this world. Nations around the globe send ambassadors to other countries to represent their interests. And now you have been set here in this country to look after the interests of the kingdom of God! Think about that! Everywhere you go, you are representing the King of Kings. What an honor!

 Perhaps it might seem a little intimidating too. God has equipped you to be His ambassador. He gave you His name and the power of His word. He put His own Spirit inside of you. He has also given you the ability to hear and follow directions of that Spirit. You are equipped! You have God inside of you!

 Wherever you may be, begin to think differently about yourself. You are not just another ordinary man or woman, but an ambassador of Almighty God! Talk to Him about how to be His representative in everything you do. Let His interest be big on your mind and in your heart. You are an ambassador for Jesus Christ in this nation!


"You may be very ordinary, but God wants to make you extraordinary in the Holy Ghost" - Smith Wigglesworth

It's about families!

“My son, hear the instruction of your father; reject not nor forsake the teaching of your mother. For they are a [victor’s] chaplet (garland) of grace upon your head and chains and pendants [of gold worn by kings] for your neck.” Proverbs 1:8-9 AMP

 Today we pray that we are the fathers and mothers that God set us here to be. That we hear our Fathers instructions in regards to all things but most especially in regards to our children that we are able to share with them how much they are loved and their importance in the kingdom. That we live the same way we speak whether at home, work, or church. That we are here to build up champions in Christ. When we do that we are strengthened also, iron sharpens iron isn't just about adults. Its about families too!

Love and Blessings!
