How To Live In Heaven On Earth

How To Live In Heaven On Earth

The Spiritual Journey is the path which leads through the maze of personal motives, behaviors, attitudes and corresponding actions to liberate the believer from constraints, oppressions and confinements. The decision to cooperate and make adjustments or corrections as the path bends and turns, determines the measure of the outcome. Each believer must follow the path they are being shown, however different from others’ opinions or experiences it may seem. Accepting the invitation requires total commitment. As the long journey begins,…

Know Your Limits

Know Your Limits

Comments 0 Comment

The Promised Land was God’s gift to His children. He had no limits on getting them there, and no limits on taking care of them while they journeyed. But it was their unbelief in His capacity that limited God’s ability to bless them. How much do we limit our unlimited God? Sometimes we think He may not care about our tiny little human problems, so we don’t rely on Him. Maybe we just don’t trust Him to take care of…

When You Don’t Believe

When You Don’t Believe

Space has a smell. Different astronauts have described it as smelling like gunpowder, burnt almond cookies, pleasantly metallic, welding, and even steak. If we average the color of the light emitted by galaxies, their stars, and all visible clouds of gas and dust in the universe, it forms a color similar to ivory, nearly white. The color is called ‘cosmic latte.’ The International Space Station is the third-brightest object in the sky, after the Sun and the Moon. A full…

A Disturbing Unrest

A Disturbing Unrest

Do you ever find yourselves with an inner ‘grrrr’ attitude—a general disturbing unrest—towards people, situations, circumstances, or even toward yourself? Sometimes it ebbs and flows, other times it can be more constant for days or weeks at a time. There is nothing to do about the way you feel during this time, except just BE QUIET. The turmoil you feel usually means that more spiritual maturity is needed. Take the time to absorb or reflect on what God has said you….

What are you listening to?

What are you listening to?

Les Brown, a motivational speaker and author, once said: “The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with [it], or determined to carry out their dream.” God…

Light

Light

Sunflowers famously track the sun, exposing themselves to maximize light exposure. That is why these beauties are often seen as symbols of faith, devotion, and seeking light and truth. Have you ever stopped to think about light? Light is an awesome and interesting subject in Scripture. Light was created by God (Genesis 1:3 and Isaiah 45:7) Light has no fellowship with darkness (2 Corinthians 6:14) God dwells in Light (1 Timothy 6:16) God calls people into Light (1 Peter 2:9)…

Losing Everything

Losing Everything

There are 7 significant events in the spiritual journey. Sufferings is the third event, and this is where we begin to be aware of the old self-serving nature and recognize our heart must turn towards the Christ center. Sufferings is where all earthly attachments are broken from us, and preferences, such as likes and dislikes, are dislodged and laid aside. Earthly attachments must be identified and removed because they are hindrances to the move of the Spirit. A sense of…

Author and Teacher

Do you know that we can understand everything that is written in the Bible? And He will teach us things beyond what the Bible says. It is true. The “Author” of the book of the Bible lives in the reader. The Master Teacher, teaches. It is who He is. He can take something that we think we can’t possibly understand, and break it down into parts, pieces, language, words, illustrations that we can understand, and can apply to life today….

Know Your Rights!

Know Your Rights!

“When we become Christians, we work to become broken.” The first time my friend said this to me, I was perplexed. But then I began to search for the truth in this statement, and found that brokenness is evident when we no longer react with all of our pre-Christian flesh patterns when the following rights are challenged: Your right to possessions. Your right to a good reputation. Your right to have acceptance by others. Your right to be successful. Your…

Patterns and Directions

Growing up, I spent hundreds of hours watching my Mom sew. She was not a professional seamstress, although her work was professional-level, and she did receive payment for work she did for others. In the corner of her sewing room was a large cabinet, full of original sewing patterns folded and tucked neatly in their envelopes. When she got a new pattern, she let me carefully trim and press the patterns made from fine tissue paper, then help her pin…
