Stop Blaming God

A lot of us need to stop blaming God for things He didn’t do. If you’ve been on this earth for long I’m sure you’ve experienced pain, loss and heartache. This was not from God.  The enemy comes to kill, steal and destroy but Jesus came that we may have abundant life in the face of our enemy. God is redeeming! He is good! It’s time to detach those things you’ve blamed Him for. 

“This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.”

‭‭I John‬ ‭1:5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Promises

Hold on to God’s promises.  He is faithful to fulfill them. He who has begun a good work in you will complete it!

Happy, Joyous and Free

God is happier when you’re happy. 

Yes, it’s Monday but that’s no reason to be down.  We have a loving Father who cares for you deeply! A loving father who wants His kids to be happy. 🙂

“They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion; they will rejoice in the bounty of the Lord — the grain, the new wine and the olive oil, the young of the flocks and herds. They will be like a well-watered garden, and they will sorrow no more. Then young women will dance and be glad, young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.”

-‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭31:12-13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Above the Noise

I woke up from a nightmare and was asking the Lord about it.  I heard very clearly, “The realization with your war is that you’re winning.”

Warfare is never fun but it’s a reality.  If you are a God seeker you will face opposition.  A kingdom mindset fights from victory because we know how it all ends.

God cannot lose!

Breakthrough is on the horizon but hope is here now.  There is purpose in the fight.

For every warrior’s sandal from the noisy battle, and garments rolled in blood, will be used for burning and fuel of fire. -Isaiah 9:5

In the midst of battle turn your ear to heaven and hear truth.

Be still and know that He is God.  He will be exalted among the nations.  Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end!

Life is Difficult

“Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”-‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Jesus never said life would be easy.  In fact He said difficult is the way which leads to life.  When we run into a difficult situation which seems impossible often our instinct is to run away, but the only running we should be doing is straight to God for help.  This is living by faith.  When we turn to Him in impossible situations He works through us and makes them possible.  David did not run from Goliath. 

“Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.” -‭‭I Samuel‬ ‭17:45‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Lies and Distractions

It is much more important to study and pay attention to the ways of God than the ways of Satan.   The ways of Satan are lies and distractions.  That is all you need to give attention to.  Anymore and you have fallen for his trap.  He will try time and time again to distract those who are called to impact the Kingdom for the glory of God.  Don’t waste your time analyzing his schemes.  The second you recognize one of his distractions bind it in Jesus name and move your eyes swiftly back to Christ and what God is doing.

Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith… –Hebrews 12:1-2
