Good Morning World! Serve. Many people want to lead but most do not want serve. The best leader is one who is first willing to serve under authority. Submission is not an indication of weakness but of strength, the ability to willingly trust God as we support someone else to reach their potential. Promotion comes from God. Want to lead? Submit to service & wait for the door of leadership to open. Have a great day!
Let all your things be done with charity...That ye submit…

Good Morning World! Do because we know. Religion teaches us to practice certain rituals in order to appear to have a relationship with God. Having a relationship with God requires us to seek to know trust & to live in His Word because He knows everything. Knowing Him doesn't suggest a perfect life, but trust in a perfect God to bring us to His perfect place. In bondage to religion? Be free in Jesus. Have a great day!
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.…

Good Morning World! Stay in our own lane. Every minute spent focused on someone else's life is a minute of unproductive energy on our own. Everyone has their own road to take & only God knows the way to each one's purpose, calling & destiny. Jealousy reflects a lack of faith, & suggests that God didn't give us what we need to follow our own path. He is the God of all. Minding another? Mind your own. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Words build or kill. We can unleash a barrage of words into the psyche of someone & do as much damage as a machine gun to their flesh. We can also release words like medicine to their mind, lift their spirits, encourage their heart & strengthen their will to be better. Speaking life changes attitudes, brightens the countenance & changes appearance. Killing with words? Speak life. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Let someone in. We don't have to open up our lives to everyone, because everyone is not in our best interest. While we may go through seasons when we feel we'd rather isolate ourselves from people, that's probably the time we need to avail ourselves to someone else. God intentionally made man-kind to be family, to be together. In an alone season? Try to open up to someone else. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Stay connected. Failing to assemble ourselves in worship will weaken our resolve to live by faith. Anything that is disconnected from the source of its power will weaken, eventually becoming unable to function properly. Likewise by the time our mind tells us that it's okay to stay away from a station of Power from our Source, the weakening process has begun. Remember your Source, have a great day!
God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to…

Good Morning World! Behold Jesus. The same God that brought us from where we were, is the same God that will take us to where we need to be. The key is to shift our focus from our shortcomings to His overcoming. From sinner to saved, glory to glory, we are all in some phase of transition in our lives. The high calling cannot be achieved without the transformational power of Holy Spirit. See Jesus. Have a great day!
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the…

Good Morning World! Empty is good. The end of us is the beginning of God. The end of our hope, our trust, our ability, our peace, our joy, ourselves is the point of grace. In Jesus we find new hope, all trust, supernatural power, peace that passes understanding, His joy and sufficient grace. To fail to see all that He is beyond who we are is utter darkness. At the end of you? Walk toward the Light. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Be authentic. It serves no purpose to behave as though we have no flaws in ourselves or imperfections in life. Faith is not exemplified by behaving as if we have no trials but to live fully trusting in the grace of God. He is able to present us blameless before His throne. His blood covers all He has all power & His grace is sufficient. Be transparent before God, honest with man. Have a great day!
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed…

Good Morning World! Always forgive. Forgiveness is so important to our own emotional health. We cannot realize optimum potential if we are weighed down with resentment and anger from the past. Every moment that we spend focused on the pain of yesterday, is a moment lost of the promise of tomorrow. Holding a grudge? Release others and free yourself! Have a great day!

Good Morning World! He's always working for us. So often we can look around us and think that our lives have gone awry, but if we take a another look through the eyes of faith, we may see the hand of God placing our lives in divine order. We must remember that all things work together for our good not just all good things. Sometimes things are out of order before they can be put in order. Trust Him. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! There is the place. Often our peace, prosperity & purpose is not lost, we're just out of place. A fish on dry land is out of place, but place it in the water & its genius is revealed. We are in the place when the code of purpose that was written in us in heaven is revealed. What is in your heart to do? What gives you a sense of purpose? There is the place of your prosperity. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Grace is for getting it right. Legalism & religion would suggest that shortcomings in our lives are a sign that we do not belong to God. Yet, if that were true, there would be no need for grace. Somethings require time, time for understanding, time for growth, time for maturity, time. Time to change is not an indicator of no God, but evidence of God. Need time? Accept His grace. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! If we're not in a storm, we will be. It is fruitless to pray that rain won't fall, it is as fruitless to pray that trials don't come. Trials can destroy, but they are not intended for that purpose. God allows trials, but through the experience we should come to abide in Him. Hence, if its sunny we're strong, but if it's not we're still strong not moved by the winds. Abide in Him. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Get a vision. Vision is the fuel that drives us from one phase of life into another. Often motivated by our passions, it takes vision to pursue that which is burning in our hearts to accomplish. If there is nothing burning in our hearts, it is impossible to "see" our futures. God is a Revealer, He can give us the desires of our hearts and the vision through which to pursue them. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! Knowing is half the battle. If we know that God is, there really isn't another question that needs to be asked. He is. Yet, the Word tells us to also know that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. That's only a bonus, knowing that He is negates the necessity of any further uncertainty in our own lives. If He is ____, we are____. Finish that sentence. If He is, I am. Have a great day!
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that…

Good Morning World! There is always a way of escape. Circumstances may leave us feeling as though we are trapped. Trapped in a relationship, a job, a house, in life. However, God has given us a promise that we are never left without a way out. What to do? Wake up, do the most productive thing that we can do that day & go to sleep. Next day, do it again. When you reach the right door, it will open. Have a great day!

Good Morning World! He's there. The presence of God is not determined by a feeling if it were faith would not be required. More often feelings contradict the will & promises of God because they are driven by emotional or physical considerations. Faith is born out of the Spirit of God & thereby transcends the tangible. Give no thought to whether you feel if He's there. Just talk to Him. He hears you. Have a great day!
But know that the LORD has set apart the godly for…

Good Morning World! Just go. Sometimes we need to just start walking towards the future that we hope to create. Stagnation is a sign of death. Like everything in creation, people need to be ever growing in God, in purpose, in life. Otherwise, we will become stagnant and eventually die. Today, find something to pour yourself into with passion, share it with someone else and live! Have a great day!

Good Morning World! People are tied to purpose. Every person in our life is there for one of two reasons, to move us toward purpose or to push us away from purpose. If we know what God has called us to do, but the environment in which we frequent is not conducive to that calling, those relationships are not tied to purpose. Do not be confused when people leave and come, they are navigational tools. Have a great day!
