We are the body of Christ it's time to stand firm knowing we have the mind of Christ to tell us what to do. The mind of Christ leads us and directs our paths because when we accept the Lord as our savior he comes to dwell with us. He never leaves nor forsakes us. He's always there for us. We need to come together as a body of believers to accomplish the assignment given to us by Christ.

When you seek me with all your heart you will find me. Says the Lord. He cares for you and he knows when your hurting. He desires for you to seek him. He's not hiding he's in plain sight waiting for you to want him. When you decide you want him he will open the eyes of your heart to see him standing there before you where he has always been. Call upon him and he will answer you.

Jesus believes in you. He has confidence in you even when you don't have it in yourself. He believes you can overcome anything and according to his holy word you can. Why is it that we cant believe in ourdelves and trust Jesus even after he has given us the power and authority through his name to heal people, to se people free, to restore and redeem the broken. Why do we have such little faith yet, refuse to use it to move our own mountains. We expect God to show up and show out (escpecically for others), but we don't do anything for him. Faith without works is dead and faith without love doesn't count. Stop blaming HIM, HE did not hurt you he choose you, he called you, he loved you first. He believes in you and has confidence in you. Run back into his loving embrace. He's waiting on you

God revitalizes us. He refurbishes, rebuilds, reshapes, washes us there are just so many ways God changes us. We need to get a hold of God. He is in the business of bringing dead things back to life. We need to feed our faith and let our doubts starve God is going to make it happen whether we believe it or not. That is who God is, he doesn't care if you want him to do it or not if he wants to do it he will. Trust in God today. Give him praise. Stand firm and be courageous for his word gives us life everlasting. 

We need to learn to be silent. Be silent and listen for the voice of the Lord. We need to stop telling people our business, what we heard God say to us. We need to sit back and wait on God to bring those things to pass. Sometimes we can hinder our own blessings by the words that come out of our mouth. Words filled with doubt, or disbelief will pause those promises from the Lord from manifesting in your life sooner. Speak to the mountains if you have a little faith tell every situation to line up with the word of God. But stay silent the people around you also carry life and death in the tongue. 

God's love is everlasting. It's patient and kind it doesn't envy or boast it is not proud. I could keep going but we all know the love chapter by heart. It has been reproduced many times and even become part of our homes through decorations and photos. God's love is real it's hard to feel when we get caught up in the things of this world. That's why it's important to be in the world and not of it. God cleanses us he makes us white as snow. God is caple of removing the stains your laundry detergent leaves behind. I know you've seen all the commercials but that white as snow is different. When you see untouched snow for the first time it glistens and shimmers. It looks nothing like a brand new white shirt. When God gets a hold of us we shine. He tells us to let our light shine before men. We are the light of the earth. We need to be spreading his love so that others will shine. We don't have to react like the rest of the world they are part of it but w...

 Faith hope and love will be the only things that remain for sadness, fear, regret all will fade away. That gives us something to look forward too. Trust in God with all your heart and do not rely on you own emotions. Have faith believe in him and he will bring all good things to pass. He's faithful, he is a promise keeper and he cares for you so look up and pray about everything give him thanks in every way possible and whatever you ask for with faith he will bring it to pass just make sure to line it up with the word and get your sins covered under the blood. 

What is the Lord saying to us? That is a deep question because he is saying so many things all at once. Look at the senery around you listen to the sounds of nature God did that he didn't do the chaos and crazy in your day to day life he did every little thing we take for granted in order to speak to you and remind you he is everywhere in everything and he loves us he cares for us more than anything. He gave us the breath in our lungs and the ability to hear, see, smell, taste, and feel both physically and emotionally. He is God he is good. We know what he is saying through nature however its hard to know which direction he is telling us to go. He will order our steps we just have to wait on divine revelation and not act out of fear, stress, or pressure. It may seem easy to get still and quiet to hear the voice of God but what do we do when that voice is silent. We continue to wait. We trust that he has a purpose and a plan as well as a perfect timing for everything. So we wait on ...

 Faith in God is a beautiful thing. It's completely trusting in Him, and laying all our worries aside. Everything in our lives should be set aside our main focus should be only on our Lord and Savior. We don't need to want for anything because we know our creator cares for us. He meets every need. Faith is the reassurance that God is going to take care of us and that is a very beautiful thing so lay your burdens down and receive the joy of the Lord today.

In his timing he makes all things happen according to his perfect plan for us, his children.  Do not loose heart do not give up stand firm in faith and remember the Lord your God is with you wherever you go and he's in the midst of everything your facing right now and tomorrow. Trust in the only one who is perfect because in him you will find perfect peace.

Let's talk about faith this morning! We know Hebrews 11:1, in fact we know all about the faith chapter and all the Bible characters it talks about and their great faith. Well what about us? Our faith often looks different because times have changed. We don't see people getting miraculously healed when the shadow of a Christian is cast over them (see Acts 5). What we do see is quiet miracles. God doesn't have to come crashing in and put on a show and neither do we. Psalms tells us to be still and know he is God. Jesus was asleep in the storm he calmed the storm. My god is not the author of confusion nor chaos but a God of peace and light. Everything about him is peaceful, even his wrath. In revelation we see that every sin will be done away with and the sinners thrown in the lake of fire, that is done to bring peace to his children. Everything about him is peaceful it always has been the stories in the Bible were not a big show nor a quick one time answered prayer there fait...

Mountain moving faith is persistent trust that God can and will do it for you. We need to get back to the habit of believing in miracles. Miracles still happen. They take time and prayer. Lots of prayer, sometimes years. Do not give up. Start by building your faith up. Read the word, play a faith song, pray in tongues, go into your secret place before the Lord and ask him to help you. He will answer you. You may even need to fast but whatever you make sure you hear the voice of God.

Faith without works is dead. If we want something we often work for it, whatever we want we put in the time and effort for. When we want a move of God in our lives we must put in the time of prayer. We must go into the secret place and seek his face. Often times he will give us direction or guidance. It may not be in an audible voice saying take a left turn here, but it will be a feeling of peace or knowing right from wrong. A feeling that his presence is in this decision. Our faith works by knowing that whatever we cannot see is going to happen that the battles over and we have the victory. We can give God thanks for that today. Faith doesn't have an exact day, nor an exact time. Trust in God with all your heart he will bring it to pass. Do not give up! 

Happy resurrection day! I wanna encourage each of you to trust that God can not only raise dead people but also dead dreams and lost hopes. Everything is possible with faith. As I've gotten back into my blog I've been reviewing each page and I saw this about faith (which you can also find at the bottom of the Who is God? page and I wanted to share it with y'all again. It reads: So, what is faith exactly? Faith is not believing. Faith is knowing. Faith is trusting that God's word is the truth. Faith is knowing that God keeps his promises. Faith is knowing that whatever you ask for in prayer (according to God's will) will be given to you. Faith is not measured by a clock it sees the future, but not exact day, date, neither the exact time. Faith waits; it is patience. Faith is persistence. Never give up, don't stop praying nor believing and hoping for a miracle. Your faithfulness will move God. Why? Because he loves you. So, faith is exactly what Hebrews says it is...

It's never to early to start being Thankful infact the bible tells us to be thankful in everything. So lets be thankful this fall for the good report. The report from the Lord almighty not the report from the dr, not the report from your job, or school, or your neighbor, but the report of the Lord. What report am i talking about, the word of God. The word of God reports, you are healed by his stripes, you are loved, you have more than enough, more food, more clothes, shoes, more money to not only pay your bills but to give joyfully. The report of the Lord is good. Be thankful today and remember to do good and share with others these are the sacrifices that are pleasing to the Lord.

Jesus believes in you. He has confidence in you even when you don't have it in yourself. He believes you can overcome anything and according to his holy word you can. Why is it that we cant believe in ourdelves and trust Jesus even after he has given us the power and authority through his name to heal people, to se people free, to restore and redeem the broken. Why do we have such little faith yet, refuse to use it to move our own mountains. We expect God to show up and show out (escpecically for others), but we don't do anything for him. Faith without works is dead and faith without love doesn't count. Stop blaming HIM, HE did not hurt you he choose you, he called you, he loved you first. He believes in you and has confidence in you. Run back into his loving embrace. He's waiting on you
