Romans 7:21I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.Many people are saved and still messing up. Paul recognized this as his flesh and spirit were warring with each other. Just because we are saved doesn’t mean that we won’t mess up. No good thing dwells in our flesh, that’s why we have to repent and ask God for forgiveness daily. When you see a Christian mess up, pray for them instead of saying “I thought you were a Christian”. The difference between a Christian  and a sinner,is that the Christian professed Jesus as their Lord and savior and now they are going through the process of becoming Christ like. The sinner still wants and allows Satan to rule over them.

Yesterday my daughter decided she didn’t want her car anymore and that she wanted to buy a new car. So I junked it. Right after I junked it she needed to go here, there, and everywhere. I told her; you see how it is not to have a car. She replied; I never realized how much I used my car. Many of us are like this. We take the Holy Spirit for granted and don’t realize how much we need it. We don’t realize how much we rely on it. But, as soon as God takes his spirit from us we know it and feel it immediately. Let’s stop taking the Holy Spirit for granted and cherish the fact that, God chose us to be heirs in his family. He invited us to have eternal life in Christ Jesus. Sadly, many people are not going to want it until they can’t have it.

Jesus’story didn’t end with him dying on the cross or him raising from the dead. He still lives today and he’s coming back. Since his story didn’t end there, and he died so that we can live; our story doesn’t have to end where we’re at today in our lives. Things can turn around for us. Oppression can end. Discrimination can end. Better jobs are a reality. Better pay is a reality. Communities transformed and being safe to live in again is a reality. Our story doesn’t have to end the way the media portrays it. God is the author and finisher of our fate. If he says we can have better, we can. If he says we can overcome, we can. If he says we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ we are. Start decreeing and declaring your story, then go live it.  I decree and declare my story is not ending, it’s just beginning.

Are you bitter or better after the situation God allowed you to go through? Did you cling to God or were you so mad that you forgot about God and left him completely? If you are bitter you need to repent and ask God to forgive you. Psalms 84:11 says: For the Lord God is a sun and shield the Lord will give grace and glory no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. In your situation were you walking as God would have you to walk? If not, then you need to be mad at yourself not God. If you are better from your situation, you need to thank God that you were able to learn the lesson he was teaching. God doesn’t allow trials to come into our life to make us bitter. He allows trials to come in our life to increase our faith and to show up mightily in our lives. How do you know God is a healer if you never got sick? How do you know God will make a way out of no way if you always have money in the bank and your change never gets strange? How do you know God will supply all of your needs according to his riches in glory, if your never lack anything and never have to depend on anybody? The bibles says in Philippians 2:10-11That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. So you can be better and bow now or be bitter and bow later.

It can be discouraging watching other people be healed, delivered and blessed while you’re waiting on the same thing. But, don’t let this discourage you; let it encourage you. You should be encouraged in the fact that God is still moving on someone’s behalf and it’s just a matter of time before he moves on your behalf. God loves you and he only wants the best for you. He knows when it’s time to intervene on your behalf. So, while you’re watching and waiting; keep fasting and praying.

Sometimes you can sit in church Sunday after Sunday and still be starving spiritually. It is at this point in life that you have to dig deep in the well of your soul and feed your spirit. Don’t look for anyone else to feed you. Your spirit is hungry for the word of God. Now is not the time to starve yourself or go on a spiritual diet.

There are times in our lives that we don’t feel like praising God, we don’t feel like praying and we don’t feel like going to church. It’s in those times that we have to press our way. When these feelings come upon us, we have to wonder what blessing is the enemy trying to keep from us. The enemy knows if he can get us to shut our mouths so that we won’t praise and worship God, then he’s defeated us. We have to be like Jeremiah when he said; he was going to hold his peace but the word of God was like fire shut up in his bones and he couldn’t hold his peace.

Today my son had a football game. Normally he plays strong safety on defense, but today he was on offense and defense. While playing offense he fumbled the ball. He was down about it and later said; mom I bet the fumble is going to be in the paper. I told him he was one heck of a strong safety and he will recover from the fumble. Many of us fumble in life and feel as though we cannot recover. We can recover! There’s nothing to hard for God. We should learn from our fumbles and try our best not to fumble in that area of life anymore. Don’t let the fumbles of life get you down, cause depression, make you want to commit suicide, do drugs or drive you to drink. After we fumble and fall down, we need to have enough sense to get back up, dust ourselves off and keep it moving. God is faithful and just to forgive us.

On today temptation is sure to come so we need to ask God to help us to not be led away with it. Help us to not fall into temptation. Being tempted is not a sin, falling into temptation is the sin. God is powerful and he can do it, but we have to ask him. He will never override our will. Many people don’t ask for help with temptation because they think that they can handle it. It’s dangerous to play with sin. Sin makes you stay longer than you wanted to stay; and it makes you pay more than you intended to pay. Just ask for God’s help in every area of your life today. Let the devil know he has no power over you, and as of today he cannot keep tripping you up with the same old tactics anymore, because Jesus is your help.

Is God really Lord in your life? Often we like to say God comes first in our life, but if we really sat down and looked at all of our priorities; we would see that we are not actually putting God first in our lives. How much time does God have of ours during the day? Is it 30 minutes, 15 minutes, hours or seconds? Do we purposely carve out time to spend with God? When we can answer these questions honestly, then we will find out who’s Lord in our life, and sadly we may find out it’s not God. We all need to do better, for God has given us his best.
