Fasting and praying

I came across a note in my Bible the other day it was about fasting and praying and how it cures unbelief. As soon as I read it the HG quickened in me that to cure my unbelief in God as my provider I need to fast and pray. God is good and always answers.

It has been a while

It has been a while since I have even thought about my blog, but today as I was sitting in church God remined me of something. my very fist vision the song Spirit wind came up on the wall and it was like wow that is excatly what God had shown me a long time ago. it a song by casting crowns it talks about the valey of dry bones and how God raised them to be a mighty army once again and then goes into a church setting and shows the picture of a pastor torn because his church has become that valley so he breaks down and prays to God to breath the spirit back into his church so they can be the mighty army again. I know God has called me to do such a thing as the pastor did in the song and like Ezekiel did in the valley. 

New Direction

For the first time in my life I can honestly say I have a vision of what I want to do in my life. I have seen God working in my life alot these last few months. First He has blessed my wife with the knowledge of coupons, which was hard for me to understand at first, but I get it now. We have cut or grocery bill in half and that is a praise God!!! Second I have been presented with a new job opportunity with in the bank I am currently working at. God is moving and I am on the train!!! God has shown me where to go and how to get there and how to run it. I am still praying about some of the details but He has given me a three year plan. I plan on finishing Theology school and getting my bachelors degree at Life Christian Bible Institute, which will happen in just 1 and half years. Then I plan on going on to get my masters and doctorate at Life Christian University. From there God will direct me into new and exciting things. God has also given me a new desire to see the lost saved and a new boldness to talk to them about Jesus.

I know that with God all things are possible and that I can do all things through Jesus. No mountain will stand in my way.

Fear, Power, Love, Sound Mind

“God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love and a sound mind”
II Timothy 1:7

So why do so many of us live in fear?
 1.The main reason is a lack of knowledge, people are afraid of the things they don't understand the word of God says that His people perish because of the lack of knowledge.
Hosea 4:6
 2.You need not fear for there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ
Romans 8:1
 So what Spirit did God give us?
 1. The verse here in Second Timothy says one of POWER, LOVE, and a SOUND MIND that is three different things, but can be wrapped up into The Holy Spirit. So we can read this verse this way God did not give us a spirit of fear but gave us His Holy Spirit. Jesus told us that He would send the Helper.
John 14:16,17&26

What is the power of the Holy Spirit?
1.The Holy Spirit give us the boldness (power) to step out of our comfort zones
Acts 1:8
What is Love?
 1.Paul writes about love to the Corinthians in 1st Corinthians 13 and tells them without love we are nothing.
1st Corinthians 13:1,2
 2.Jesus talks about how love is His commandment
John 15:12
Sound Mind / Faith
 1.As Christians we are to be of sound mind not double minded.
James 1:5-8
 2. The Bible says that with out faith it is impossible to please God
Hebrews 11:6

 3.With a sound mind you know who you are in Christ
2 Corinthians 5:17
Romans 8: 15-17
Closing Statement God has given the commandment to be strong and of good courage
Joshua 1:9

Lord Hear my Cry

Psalm 17:1 "Hear a just cause, O Lord Attend to my Cry....."

Right now Lord I am crying out to you please hear my cry I am tired of feeling this way tired of existing in fear. I'm not living the plan You have for me. I know that fear holds me back, and You are moving forward. My anger also hinders me Lord deal with that root cut it out of me I refuse to be angry anymore the fear only feeds my anger and my anger feeds the fear. THIS IS NOT LIFE please Lord free me of fear and anger.

In Jesus name

Keep your focus

Proverbs 4:25-27 "Let your eyes look straight ahead and your eyelids look right before you. Ponder the path of your feet and let your ways be established. Do not turn to the right or to the left. Remove your foot from evil." As I read this today I was reminded of Peter when he jumped out of the boat on to the raging sea. He walked on water for a little bit then lost focus, started looking at the left and the right. See Peter lost focus on what was before him, and started to sink into the sea. If Jesus had not of been there Peter would have drowned. Thank God He sent His Son to save us. How many of us have lost focus today, and are drowning? I would be the first to admit I loose focus from time to time, but thank God the Holy Ghost is right there to pull my focus right back to God. Have any of you lost focus on what it is God wants for you? God wants you to have life abundant not life just ok . If you are tired of trying to do this all your self and realized you are drowning reach up and grab a hold of Jesus and He will pull out of the sea and set you back on solid ground. Matthew 11:28 "Come to Me (Jesus) all you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest."


If you have lost focus and want to get back on track its this simple :

Father I have lost focus on You please forgive me I want to get back on track with the plan you have for my life. Holy Ghost help me to stay on track and order my steps. Thank you Lord for never leaving me and being there to pull me out when I am drowning and set me back on the solid rock. In Jesus name AMEN!

Your body is the Temple!!

The other morning as I was in my prayer time the Holy Ghost revealed to me, my body is His Temple and made me aware of things that I have been putting in His Temple. *1st Corinthians 6:19 "Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own." Most of you know this scripture but have you ever really thought about it. Our body is His temple what kind of things do you let go into it not just food or drink but, things like the tv shows you watch, the kind of stuff you read, the stuff your hear. The temple is to be a place of prayer. *Matthew 21:13 " And He said to them, "It is written 'My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you have made it a 'den of thieves.'" Really by putting anything into your body that is not of God you are robbing your body of the power of the Holy Ghost. It is all comes down to this will you be known for being a house of prayer or a den of thieves.
