From Minimum to Maximum

The secret to a blessed life in Christ is in the power of prayer. Any time we operate from a focus of prayer and the word, God comes through for us. If we are tired and weary he will be there for us. No amount of human effort can replace the ability of Gods Holy Spirit to strengthen, guide and take care of the negative circumstances in our lives. The desire to operate on minimum strength is tempting, but we will soon learn that we can live up to our full potential only in Christ. Any trust in our human wisdom, strength or understanding will leave us falling short.

It is the life that lives in total surrender to Christ that sees maximum results. Our focus must be on prayer and knowing God. We must not only be familiar with His works but become familiar with His ways. Christ realized the necessity of knowing God for himself and seeking God for His anointing. At one time he asked God to glorify Him with the glory he had with Him from the beginning. Though He was God, He took on the likeness of man and knew that he had to keep in communion with God to operate from the fullness of God.

We must not faint in prayer. When we minister to others we give out. We must keep on refilling our lives with the presence of God's Holy Spirit to get maximum results.

You are Special In case you might have forgotten, I just wanted to remind you that you are one of a kind, God's chosen, fearfully and wonderfully created.

You are not only fearfully and wonderfully made as God said, you are also strong because He has promised to be your strength and shield. So today, I encourage you to know that you are somebody loving, kind, full of warmth, smart and beautiful. 'Your past is history' Your past is history. It does not have to determine your destiny because God himself has already determined it. So many people live and die without knowing that they are special, that they are somebody and that they are unique, important, loved, wanted and appreciated. Today ...

Push Forward!

There are times when you feel as though you are walking through a strong sand storm and the winds of adversity seem to be pushing you backwards everytime you try to move forward. This is what life is all about. Life at its best brings with it lots of joy but with some level of adversity. I want to say to you today to push forward and fight back not in your strength, but in the strength that God gives you. Ways that will help us in pushing forward: Queen Esther had a difficult situation. Her uncle's life was at stake, so she set out to do something about it but before she proceeded she used what I think is one of the greatest tools in helping us to succeed in adversity. She prayed and fasted. She told her folks to pray and fast for her. We know the results, the wickedness that was meant to destroy her and her loved ones fell back on the one who planned it. God helped her to gain the strength during this difficult time to do an unusual thing. Have a right attitude! Another...
