Break Time

Hello Everyone,

I will be taking this week off for some much needed rest. I will return on Monday April 6th. Please lift us up in prayer this week. As always, enjoy the music, I shall return.

In Christ

For A Rainy Day

Give me your lantern and compass, give me a map, So I can find my way to the sacred mountain, to the place of your presence, To enter the place of worship, meet my exuberant God, Sing my thanks with a harp, magnificent God, my God. Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul? Why are you crying the blues? Fix my eyes on God— soon I'll be praising again. He puts a smile on my face. He's my God. Psalm 43:4-5 (The Message)

That scripture makes me want to shout for joy. The writer speaks of searching for His presence, almost as if he is on a journey to find the presence of the Lord. And as I looked further into this passage, I found a reason to make the journey, because when you find the presence of the Lord you will find that He is an exuberant God.

Look at these definitions of exuberant:

1. effusively and almost uninhibitedly enthusiastic; lavishly abundant: an exuberant welcome for the hero.

2. abounding in vitality; extremely joyful and vigorous.

3. extremely good; overflowing; plentiful: exuberant health.

4. profuse in growth or production; luxuriant; superabundant: exuberant vegetation.

That is my God and much more. Speak to your soul today! Do not fall into depression on this rainy day. We serve a Big God, an Exuberant God, it is all in His hands and He will work it out.

So this I must ask you today? Why are you down in the dumps, dear beloved? Why are you crying the blues? Fix your eyes on God— soon you will be praising again. He will put a smile on your face. He is your God.

Friends

Today, pick up the phone and call all of your friends and tell them how much they mean to you, that you love them and are praying for them. Do not take anything for granted. A flower is here one day and gone the next, so spend your time wisely, and enjoy your friends and your life. Make the most out of every moment that you have. How about getting before the Lord today and tell Him how much you love Him, and you could not make it without Him, share your heart with Him. He would love to "hear" your thoughts and ideas. He might even share His with you!

Also I would like all of us to pray for Pam & Steve today; They have 15 High school girls coming to their house for the weekend. They are hosting “Disciple Now” in their home. We want to pray that God will reveal himself to each of them in a special way. They are meeting at the church for group sessions and back at the host home for small meetings and some fun time. I want the Lord to build confidence in these girls (future Women of God). I am talking about the type of confidence that will take them successfully into womanhood, where boys and men cant mislead them and they will not fall for tricks from the enemy. They will know who they are in Christ and that the Father loves them very much.

I love all of you!
In Christ

A House Divided Cannot Stand

Luke 11:14-23

14 And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled. 15 But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebub,the ruler of the demons.” 16 Others, testing Him, sought from Him a sign from heaven. 17 But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls. 18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I cast out demons by Beelzebub. 19 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 20 But if I cast out demons with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. 21 When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. 22 But when a stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils. 23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

This is an amazing passage. It clearly shows us the importance of having the same vision cast throughout your organization. It can be your business or ministry, but it is crucial for the success of any organization to have the same vision. You can look at any successful organization and you will find that they walked in unity and shared the same vision. If an organization is divided against itself, it will fall.

Jesus makes a remarkable statement; If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Is that not amazing. Satan must be unified in his vision toward man and this earth. If he is not, and he is divided, he will fall. Now I know what you are saying! I thought we win in the end? Yes we do. But for us to be successful in our walk with the Lord we must share the same vision. That was Jesus point. Whatever organization you are in, whether you are the leader or layman, you must carry the same vision as your organization or you will cause division. God does not like division. If you find yourself in a situation were your vision is different than the organization, get in your prayer closet and hear the Lord's voice so he can direct your path. Find the vision and stay focused.

Spiritual Knowledge

Luke 8:17-18 (Amplified Bible)

17For there is nothing hidden that shall not be disclosed, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come out into the open.

18Be careful therefore how you listen. For to him who has [spiritual knowledge] will more be given; and from him who does not have [spiritual knowledge], even what he thinks and guesses and supposes that he has will be taken away.

Beloved, never forget that people that try to harm you or lie about you will eventually be found out. The truth will always be revealed. Be careful of what you are hearing and whom you are hearing it from. Test all things you hear by the Spirit of God. He will give you wisdom and knowledge if you ask. Our God is most powerful, and He will give you spiritual knowledge so that you can walk in fullness doing His will hear on this earth.

Be Blessed

He Is God

Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; Nor are there any works like Your works. All nations whom You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And shall glorify Your name. For You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God.

Psalm 86:8-10
