Good morning. Children are just as valuable to the kingdom of God as adults. We should never push a child away from getting closer to Jesus. Jesus’ character drew children to him. Kids observe the character of adults and they know who’s real and who’s fake. If we are privileged enough to work with the children’s ministry in our various churches we should teach the kids everything about Jesus; instead of just sitting them in a room and giving them hotdogs and punch. We should take this opportunity to poor into them the word of God and be instrumental in giving them a godly foundation.

Matthew 19:13-15
One day some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could lay his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him. But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.” And he placed his hands on their heads and blessed them before he left.

Good morning. The trials we’re going through are but for a moment; there will be glory after this. Hold on, God sees everything that we are enduring. He sees our tears, he knows our fears, he feels what we feel and trust and believe he’s got us. These trials we face actually shows us what’s within us; it exposes how much or how little faith we have. We need to determine within ourselves what we’re going through will be a faith-builder. We have to determine within ourselves no matter what it looks or feels like we will trust the Lord. So let’s remain strong and endure unto the day of Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 1:6-7
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.

Good morning. God is in the restoration business. He wants to restore us back to him. He is giving us time to turn to him but we must hurry for time is running out; for none of us know when Jesus shall appear or when we will close our eyes in death. Let’s get back to the basics of serving God. Let’s get back to praying, fasting, and crying out to the Lord. God is compassionate and his love is unfailing. Let’s not waste anymore time being out of right relationship with God.

Joel 2:12-13
That is why the LORD says,
“Turn to me now, while there is time. Give me your hearts. Come with fasting, weeping, and mourning. Don’t tear your clothing in your grief, but tear your hearts instead.” Return to the LORD your God, for he is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. He is eager to relent and not punish.

Good morning. With injustices going on throughout the land please remember we serve a faithful God. He sees all and knows all and he will defend us. Yes it hurts when we feel like we’re not vindicated in our time but make no mistake about it; God’s timing is the best and he will set the record straight. He will rise up and subdue our enemies. No one is getting away with anything. We must trust that God knows how to deal with our enemies and the injustices of this world.

Psalms 12:5-8
The LORD replies, “I have seen violence done to the helpless, and I have heard the groans of the poor. Now I will rise up to rescue them, as they have longed for me to do.” The LORD’s promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over. Therefore, LORD, we know you will protect the oppressed, preserving them forever from this lying generation, even though the wicked strut about, and evil is praised throughout the land.

Good morning. Do you give your all at work or do you try to get over? God isn’t pleased with lazy people; for they bring poverty upon themselves and they irritate their employers. The Bible declares; work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.

Proverbs 10:26
Lazy people irritate their employers, like vinegar to the teeth or smoke in the eyes.

Good morning. Nothing we do can be hidden from God. God knows our thoughts and our motives. The Lord knows what’s in the depths of our hearts. As we go through this journey called life and God shows us what’s really in us; let’s seek to keep the good he shows us and rectify the bad that’s within us.

Proverbs 20:27
The LORD’s light penetrates the human spirit, exposing every hidden motive.

Good morning. As disciples of Christ the knowledge we gain is not just for us. As we learn from the Lord we are obligated to teach others and those that we teach should pass it along. We should live a life of faith that others are willing to learn from us and are eager to spread the word. No one person can teach everyone, as many members in one body we all have our part. Together as the body of Christ we can be more affective than one person trying to go at it alone and be ineffective.

2 Timothy 2:2
You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others.

Good morning. With so many things going on in the world and so many things around us that can easily distract us, we must remain focus. We must keep our eyes fixed on the Lord and remain steadfast, unmovable always abounding in the work of the Lord. Daily we must keep our feet from straying into all kinds of evil. The Bible declares to watch as well as pray. We must be on the lookout for traps set to make us fall. Straight and narrow is the road that leads to our Father’s house, let’s not veer off it and find ourselves on a road to destruction.

Proverbs 4:25-27
Look straight ahead,
and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.

Good morning. Being the life of the party is only good for our public image. It means nothing if God looks at us as dead. We need to deal with the reality of what’s deep in our hearts and come clean with God. Don’t get so caught up in your public image that you make hell your permanent dwelling place.

Revelation 3:1-6
The Message to the Church in Sardis “Write this letter to the angel of the church in Sardis. This is the message from the one who has the sevenfold Spirit of God and the seven stars: ” I know all the things you do, and that you have a reputation for being alive—but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is almost dead. I find that your actions do not meet the requirements of my God. Go back to what you heard and believed at first; hold to it firmly. Repent and turn to me again. If you don’t wake up, I will come to you suddenly, as unexpected as a thief. “Yet there are some in the church in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes with evil. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy. All who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and his angels that they are mine.
“Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.

Good morning. Can someone give us a compliment without it going to our heads? Can someone acknowledge us, praise us for the works we’ve done, recognize our contributions and we stay humble? We should never let what others say about us give us the big-head. When they speak praises about us we should immediately give God all the glory because without him we wouldn’t be nothing. So, the next time you let words blow up your ego remember pride ends in humiliation and humility brings honor.

Proverbs 27:21
Fire tests the purity of silver and gold, but a person is tested by being praised.
