ARE YOU A CONQUEROR?

THE MESSAGE BIBLE: REVELATION 3: 20-21

Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I’ll come right in and sit down to supper with you. Conquerors will sit alongside me at the head table, just as I, having conquered, took the place of honor at the side of my Father. That’s my gift to the conquerors________________________________________________________________________________________

MEDITATE ON THIS

MEDITATE ON THIS

It is important that everyday we have something from the Word of God to meditate upon. That study or thought will give us the answer that we need. So here is the Word for today:

THE MESSAGE BIBLE PSALM 27: 14

STAY WITH GOD. TAKE HEART, DON’T QUIT.
I’LL SAY IT AGAIN:
STAY WITH GOD.

YOU’RE PLAYING IN THE WORLD SERIES RIGHT NOW

YOU’RE PLAYING IN THE WORLD SERIES; RIGHT NOW

TWO TEAMS MEET IN THE WORLD SERIES.

ONE IS GOD’S TEAM AND WE’RE AT BAT. WE’RE ON THE ATTACK AGAINST AN ADVERSARY WHO WILL PITCH THE BALL AND TRY TO GET US OUT.

THE OTHER TEAM IS COMPRISED OF AN UNUSUAL TEAM COMMANDEERED AND CONTROLLED BY SATAN FOR VARIOUS REASONS.

THEY MAY NOT EVEN REALIZE THEY”RE IN THE GAME AT ALL: LEST ALONE BEING IN THE OUTFIELD.

LET ME TELL YOU HOW DIRTY THE ADVERSARY IS; HE’S NOT BEYOND HITTING YOU WITH THE BALL TO GET YOU OUT OF THE GAME!

THE MESSAGE BIBLE SAYS:

“My people are ruined because they don’t know what’s right or true.” Hosea 4:”6

SO OUR OBJECTIVE IS TO KEEP YOU ARMED AND INFORMED.

THESE ARE SOME OF THE NAMES OF THE PEOPLE ON THE TEAM:

I’M EASILY OFFENDED, I’M BITTER, I’M JEALOUS, I’M A GOSSIP; I CAN’T HELP IT, REPENT FOR WHAT” HUH”, I’M PRIDEFUL, I’M BOSSY, I’M POLITICAL AND NOT SPIRITUAL, I HATE THIS GROUP, THEY DID THIS TO ME AND I’LL PAY THEM BACK, I’M SELFISH, I’M UNKIND, ME ME ME, I’M AN ATHEIST, I’M AGNOSTIC, I’M IN THE MIDDLE, IT’S ALL A JOKE, IT’S NOT THAT SERIOUS…

(more names continued)

I’M SCARED (YES) (How are you going to fend off an attack if you’re scared? It’s not likely to happen; fear is the opposite of faith) I DON’T CARE, I DON’T WANT TO HEAR IT, I HATE PEOPLE, I DON’T LOVE (JUST TO NAME A FEW)

I JUST THOUGHT YOU MIGHT LIKE TO KNOW THAT THE ADVERSARY IS ABOUT TO DRAFT SOME NEW FOLKS UP FROM THE MINOR LEAGUES; THEY ARE:

I DON’T GO TO CHURCH; I DON’T GET ANYTHING OUT OF IT, I’M NOT GIVING THE PREACHER ALL MY MONEY, GIVE ME A HIGH FIVE, I DON’T BELIEVE IN TITHING, MS. BACKBITER.

LIFE IS LIKE THIS BASEBALL GAME AND YOU ARE EITHER ONE OF THE STARS ON THE WINNING TEAM OR IN THE OUTFIELD ON THE DEFENSE.

YOU ARE NOT A BAD PERSON FOR BEING IN THE OUTFIELD. THAT”S A FACT; ALL THE MORE REASON FOR YOU TO GET OFF OF THAT TEAM.

I’M NOT HIGH AND MIGHTY EITHER. I’VE BEEN HUMBLED IN LIFE TOO. DON’T GET ME WRONG; I USED TO BE PLAY IN THE OUTFIELD FOR THE OTHER TEAM; NOT ON PURPOSE.

I KNOW THE DEVIL CRIED CROCODILE TEARS WHEN I LEFT HIS TEAM…BUT TOO BAD; SO SAD. HA HA HA. I MEAN IT.

I WAS THINKING JUST THIS MORNING ABOUT PEOPLE THAT I KNOW BEING IN THIS BASEBALL GAME. I WAS ABLE TO PUT EACH OF THEM IN THE OUTFIELD OR AT BAT BASED ON WHERE THEY WERE AT SPIRITUALLY. THIS IS CONTROVERSIAL BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE SAY: “YOU CAN’T TELL WHERE I’M AT SPIRITUALLY.” I AGREE. THAT’S PARTIALLY TRUE. BUT I CAN TELL WHAT SIDE YOU’RE ON. I CAN’T TELL WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO DO WHEN YOU GET THE BAT. YOU MIGHT HAVE ENOUGH SPIRITUAL FUEL TO HIT A GRAND SLAM OR YOU MIGHT STRIKE OUT. IT’S NOT MY CALL, IT’S YOURS.

ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT I GOT THE BAT AND THE OTHER TEAM BETTER WATCH OUT CAUSE I’M COMING FOR THEM.

I HAD ONE FRIEND AT FIRST BASE IN THE OUTFIELD IN TERMS OF HIS SPIRITUAL AWARENESS AND KNOWLEDGE AND I ASSESSED THAT HE WAS: BASED UPON WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM IN HIS LIFE, IN A DEFENSIVE POSITION.

I HAVE ANOTHER FRIEND A PRAYER WARRIOR WHO IS ALWAYS ON THE ATTACK AT HOME PLATE BATTING THE BALL IN THE WORLD SERIES.

THE GAME IS STACKED; THE TEAM AT BAT WINS.

WE KEEP HAVING TO BAT CONTINUOUSLY AND SOMETIMES IT SEEMS LIKE IT WILL NEVER STOP. WE JUST NEED TO BE CONFIDENT THAT WE WILL WIN THE GAME. I THINK THAT’S WHY WE’RE TOLD TO: “FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH.”

THIS IS WHAT THE MESSAGE BIBLE SAYS IN 1PETER 5:8

Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would like nothing better than to catch you napping. Keep your guard up. You’re not the only ones plunged into these hard times. It’s the same with Christians all over the world. So keep a firm grip on the faith. The suffering won’t last forever. It won’t be long before this generous God who has great plans for us in Christ—eternal and glorious plans they are —will have you put together and on your feet for good. He gets the last word; yes, he does.

WHAT SIDE ARE YOU ON? DO YOU PLAY DEFENSE OR OFFENSE?

________________________________________________________________________________________

WE WIN! I WIN! YOU WIN! WE WIN!

I was walking down the street today and I thought about all the crap that Satan sends our way.
Now just so that you will know where I stand; I will never let Satan get the upper hand,

Sometimes it gets tough; I shall not pretend, but I always remember that I always win!

We win! I win! You win! We win!

JOSHUA 1: 9 THE MESSAGE BIBLE

Haven’t I commanded you? Strength! Courage! Don’t be timid; don’t get discouraged. God, your God, is with you every step you take.”

STOP SATAN"S ATTACK!

STOP SATAN’S ATTACK!

Yesterday Satan attacked me in my most vulnerable area…or so he thought.
At first when I thought about it, I was very wroth.
I wasn’t sure if that was the way it was to be,
So I lied down because I was tired and it was revealed to me.

I had been saving my monies, paying tithes, sowing seed,
Expecting God to supply my every single need,
Nothing changed when the attack came; God still knew my plight,
This was my chance to prove that my faith was not based on my sight.

It was a tough road to tread, I had to gather what I had stored up,
I had a conference with God and I would let no one interrupt,
I praised God and I thanked Him and spoke Blessings over myself,
I continued on as if nothing had happened as far as I could tell,
I put all of those “what if” thoughts on the closet shelf.

I reflected back to the time when cancer had rose up inside of me,
I remembered all the words I had said to God and the promise that He had decreed,
I will never forsake thee, He had said and He kept His Word,
And in return I promised Him that everyday I would make sure that the word would be heard,

So whoever you are and whatever you face, Stay in the Word and God will reverse,
the situation that faces you because you are redeemed of the curse,
Poverty, sickness or any type of lack; we will not tolerate, we will not grasp,
When Jesus died for all of our sins, for an extra attraction he bore all of our griefs.
So whatever you face, it is God’s will for you to have total relief!

Greetings!

My prayer for you today is that you be strong n the Lord and in the power of His might!
He will never suffer the consistently righteous (those in right standing with Him) to be moved! Please remember that!

THIS IS GOD’S DAY; WHAT WILL YOU DO?

THIS IS GOD’S DAY, WHAT WILL YOU DO?

Remember the sabbath day,

to keep it holy.

Six days you shall labor,

and do all your work;

but the seventh day is a sabbath

to the Lord your God;

in it you shall not do any work,

you, or your son, or your daughter,

your manservant, or your maidservant,

or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates;

for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea,

and all that is in them,

and rested the seventh day;

therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day

and hallowed it

Genesis 20:8-11 (RSV)

(Heb 10:24-25 KJV) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: {25} Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching

ARE THERE REALLY 2 PARTS TO FAITH?

ARE THERE REALLY 2 PARTS TO FAITH?

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen! Hebrews 11: 1 (KJV)

BEFORE YOU READ ON; I WANT YOU TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER THE QUESTION. THEN, AFTER YOU DO…ANSWER IT!

NOW PLEASE, IF YOU WILL CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

ON THE SURFACE, FAITH “LOOKS” LIKE IT HAS TWO PARTS TO IT; IN FACT MOST PEOPLE ESPECIALLY BELIEVERS GET “STUCK” ON THE FIRST PART. THE FIRST PART LOOKS LIKE IT’S ALL BASED ON HOPE.

THE SECOND PART OF FAITH LOOKS LIKE IT IS BASED UPON: THE
EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN! IT’S NOT EVIDENCE. IT’S EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN. NOW IF IT WAS EVIDENCE WE CAN CALL IN THE CSI TEAM AND HE BEST PRIVATE DETECTIVE. SOMEONE OF THE CALIBER OF THE LAW AND ORDER TEAM.

BUT THAT’S WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS. WE DON”T NEED THAT.

GOD SAYS IF WE HAVE HOPE IN THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN; THEREBY MAKING IT ..ONLY ONE PART!

THERE’S ONLY ONE PART TO FAITH, IT LOOKS LIKE IT’S TWO BUT IT’S NOT.

SO IF YOU WANT TO BE IN FAITH: HAVE HOPE IN THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN! THIS WILL BLESS YOU! FAITH IS NOW!
