What's Your Story?

We all have a story ... those thoughts we play through our mind that combined form our reality. In Philippians 4:8 Paul speaks of these thoughts and how they work in our lives. Philippians 4:8-9 The Message (MSG) 8-9 Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies. I heard famous author and teacher Earl Nightingale say it this way once "you are the sum total of your thoughts to this point in time". Take a minute to look at your own thoughts, what do they say? Are they speaking praises or curses? If your not sure of your story or thoughts, take a look at the reality you are living, what f

An Amazing Word from my brother in Christ Tom Tompkins

Image
I'm always blessed with revelation from brother Tom please visit his web site at:  Winlight Ministries ( http://wlmi.or )  Take a minute to enjoy this teaching below: Universal Error: Exposing the Lies of the universalism Doctrine (By Tom Tompkins) Let's face it, satan is obviously not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. After all, he made an attempt to over throw the Lord and we all know where that got him. While he is not too intelligent, he is smart enough to know that he should never poison something that people will stay away from. After all, if a person wanted to kill another, they would not poison a piece of dog poop and then try to get their potential victim to eat the poop. Instead, they would poison a steak or a souffle. In essence, the devil has tempted many Christians to buy into different belief systems and methods that may seem Godly, spiritual, and appropriate in their nature. The problem is that their foundation is not based o

And it’s the call upon every follower of Jesus Christ. Preach the Word! In the Greek text, this is an imperative. Paul is saying, in effect, “Put these things at the top of your

Jesus' Servant Leadership

Image
Hello all you faithful God Followers ... I have taken a while off posting to fulfill my role as called by the Lord to study and teach servant leadership. Below is an interesting example of an article I've found on the subject ... enjoy! The King Who Led with a Towel – Jesus’ Servant Leadership Role Model by Rick Sessoms and Colin Buckland on October 4, 2010 in Church Leadership , Organisational Leadership , Role Model , Servant Leader , SL The teachings and life style of Jesus are significant in the Christian’s life. He is the essential role model for how we seek to live out our lives. It’s interesting, therefore, that his model is often sadly neglected when it comes to aspects of church and organisational leadership. He was the prototype of Christian leadership. “The King Who Led with a Towel” is a three part article that examines Jesus’ leadership style and example. It is extracted from “ Culture Craft ” by Rick Sessoms and Colin Buckland and Rick’s original 2003 pape

R.I.P. ... Mommy Chalin

My Grandmother - Mommy Chalin Nicole, Chalin and my dad Last night I got "the call", you know that call that comes in the middle of the night to tell you someone is no longer with you. My grandmother passed away last night, as a believer herself I know with the confidence in me from the Holy Spirit that she is seated on high in heavenly places with mansions  and  streets paved of gold, the Glory of God all around and songs of praise everywhere. Her trip seemed long going here on earth, she spent many years in a nursing home in bed and wheel chairs. This photo was from one of my visits to see her. I remember her sitting there and as she looked into my eyes, I could almost feel her struggle with the idea of leaving this earth and everything she knows in the physical, I prayed over her for healing and revelation of Gods Love and I could see the smile stretch across her face, as she asked me about my wife and kids and shared a story about how she remembered going up to P

The Bible and Birth Control

By Tim Challies I have been asked to write about the Christian position on birth control. This is something I have discussed in the past, but there are many ways to approach the topic and this time I would like to approach it from a bit of a different angle. I intend to share how I have gone about arriving at my own position. I will begin by immediately stating what the Bible clearly forbids when it comes to birth control. From there I will survey the Bible to find principles that are helpful in the discussion. That will take us to the end of this article, leaving me to say more another day. We begin here: The Bible is silent on any explicit discussion of the subject of birth control. (If you are wondering about Onan, feel free to scroll to the bottom of this article.) Nowhere in the Bible does God command that a couple must or should use birth control at any stage in their marriage. Likewise, nowhere in the Bible does God explicitly forbid the use of birth control. It’s not that bir

Believe

Dare to believe! In Mark 9 is the story of a man who brought his son to Jesus’ disciples to be delivered. They were unable to help the man. Then a demonic spirit threw the boy on the ground in a fit right as Jesus showed up on the scene. Jesus said, “Bring him to Me.” The man asked, “If You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us” (Mark 9:22). How many times have you prayed this way, “Lord, if you can do anything.” Deep down in your heart is that little seed of doubt, “if.” We’re often like this father with his son. We may look at our circumstances, and question if our prayers are working when it seems that things are getting worse instead of better. Jesus answered, “If I can do anything?” The Creator of the Universe stood before His  creation, the One of whom Jeremiah exclaimed, “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You” (Jeremiah 32:17). Your focus will determine what you
