It’s Like Fire

Being a preacher, sometimes I want to go places where no one knows who I am. Sometimes, I want to sit in a service and let other people expound on the word of God. I was at our women’s bible study and I told the pastor I’m not going to say a word, I’m going to sit here and listen. I lied in the house of God. The women were speaking and Holy Ghost wouldn’t leave me alone. I begin to speak and couldn’t shut up.

I go to the gym every morning and lift weights. I messed around and put on a worship song. I felt the Holy Ghost moving on the inside and I started moving my mouth, but wouldn’t let no sound come out. All the time I was thinking, what in the world, I listen to music all the time while I work out. I came home, and started getting ready for work and the spirit moved again. I was worshipping and iron, worshipping and showering, worshipping and combing hair.

I went to church, and started praising and worshipping God. The tears began to roll down my face, I couldn’t compose myself. I went to the bathroom and came back and the pastor asked; are you alright? I said yeah, I’m just full of God.

Be careful about saying what you’re not going to do for God. He will stir up your spirit so fast, you will be trying stop yourself. When Jeremiah said its like fire shut up in my bones, I know exactly what he’s talking about. See, most people think worship is reserved for when you’re at church. But God as my witness, when the spirit of worship comes over you, you can be in the grocery store, the hair salon, work, or in my case the gym. It’s so powerful, it makes you want to run out of where you at and get somewhere and sit down. But when fire touches you, it makes you move, it makes you jump. And when the Holy Ghost stirs up on the inside of you, you cannot stop, drop and roll and yell fire.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

The Spiritual Hospital

The Church is the only hospital that has one doctor.
The doctor can see multiple patients at the same time and not violate any HIPPA laws.
He will have you go through a series of test and depending on how you do, you may have to repeat a few of them.
He will do some blood work, because the blood has power.
Don’t worry about having insurance, the bill is paid in full.
The only thing the doctor ask of you is a, yes.
He always gives you the right prescription the first time.
The medicine may be hard to swallow at first, but continue to take it.
Some medicines take longer to work than others when you don’t follow the instructions completely.
He has the cure you need.
He’s the ultimate specialist, for he specializes in everything and every condition.
He won’t waste your time telling you something that won’t help you.
You won’t need a second opinion.
If you take the doctor at his word, everything will work in your favor.
If you fail to take the doctor at his word, then the consequences could be dire, you could stay sick, bound or even die.
Some people may get to leave the hospital sooner than you, but don’t worry you will be able to leave when it’s your time.
Once your issue has been taken care of, you can always come back when another issue arises.
The doctor allows multiple visits, even if it’s for the same problem.
His office hours are 24/7 365 days a year.

Offended Christian Disorder ( OCD)

Many of our churches have people that have been diagnosed with Offended Christian Disorder (OCD). Somewhere along the lines, someone convinced them that they had to be weak and take offense, to everything and everybody once they got saved. This tells me that they are not reading the word for themselves. Nowhere in the bible does God call for his people to be weak. However, throughout the bible is does speak about people being offended.

You can always tell the ones in the church that have OCD. They always quit and leave their position/assignment before time. They never consult with God to see what he has to say. They try to get a posse in the church to back them up. They never come and reason with the person they believe to have offended them.

Perhaps, you’re one of these people. Instead of stirring up mess because you’re offended; go to that person and try to reason with them. If they listen to you then you’ve won a brother, if they don’t listen, get one or two more people and go back. If they still refuse to listen go before the church, if they won’t listen to the church then they will be as a gentile and tax collector. This is the word of God.

If we settled all of our offenses like this, there would be far less people with OCD in the church.

Oh Taste And See That The Lord Is Good

Everyone’s new year didn’t start off good. As a matter of fact, a lot of people brought last years mess, problems, drama and turmoil into the new year. They have been so busy complaining and consumed in their mess, that they haven’t even consulted God about their situation.

Even when they come to us and start to murmur and complain, we are suppose to stop them in their tracks, we are not suppose to consign on their madness. For every negative they speak in our hearing, we are suppose to put a positive on it. When they say; I’m so sick of my job. We are suppose to say, oh taste and see that the Lord is good. Look how he blessed you with that job, there were more people qualified for the job, But God. When they say; this year is starting out bad already. We are suppose to say, oh taste and see that the Lord is good. You’re looking at this year from the wrong perspective, you need to look at this year the way God sees it.

When we taste the goodness of the Lord, it makes us want to keep coming back for more. It makes us want to please him, because we know if it had not been for the Lord on our side, where would we be. When we taste the goodness of the Lord, it makes us want to love our enemies, even though they sought our demise. For we realize, it’s not the Lord’s will that none shall perish. When we taste the goodness of the Lord, it makes us want to share the gospel with everybody, because we want them to feel and experience the same thing we feel and experience.

If you have never tasted the goodness of the Lord. I implore you, to taste and see that the Lord is good. He’s sweeter than the honey on the honeycomb.

Happy New Year

Thank God we made it to another year!!! Now let’s be about our Father’s business this year. Let’s not slack this year. Let’s encourage one another this year. Let’s finish the race that God has for us.

Will trouble come? Yes. Will heartache and heartbreak come? Yes. But, with God on our side we will get through any obstacle that comes our way this year. This is the year to be all up in God’s face getting to know him better. This is the year to have a love affair with God. This is the year to grow spiritually and to mature in the word of God. When we do this everything else will follow.

When trials come this year, be like the songwriter and say; I feel like going on. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. God favors me. I give myself away. Freedom. Then have an undignified praise.

Happy New Year

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

There’s Still Time

On this New Year’s Eve there’s still time for you to make good on your promise to God. Everyone is talking about God still has until 11:59 tonight to keep his word, what about keeping your word?

There may have been a prophesy spoken over your life this year, but did the prophet tell you that it came with conditions? No, probably not. So let me help you out. Whenever a word is spoken over your life, ask God, what is it that I am suppose to do in order for this to come to pass. Yes, I said ask him. Because we be in church and when the word goes forth, we become emotional and the prophet of the house and the hour never goes into depth as to what your part is. They just always say what God’s part is.

Throughout the bible you will find where God told the people if they did this thing, then he would do that thing. For example, 2 Chronicles 7:14 says if my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.

Have you done your part, so that God can do his part? It’s not too late.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Do You Remember

Do you remember your first encounter with God? You know the moment you realized he saved your soul from a burning hell. Do you remember how you couldn’t explain the felling, but you wanted everyone to feel what you felt? Remember how you had so much zeal for Christ, that you always prayed and read the bible.

Isn’t it strange, that when we first got saved we were excited and we always had time for God. Now that we’ve been saved a minute, we just can’t find time to pray or read the bible. Church service holds too long. We are really not feeling the pastor anymore, and don’t let me get started on the people in the church.

Just like Paul asked the Galatians, oh foolish Galatians who have bewitched you? I ask the same question. Who foolish Christians who have bewitched us, into thinking that we have arrived? Who or what has made us think that we are better than the people in the church? What makes us think that we don’t have time to spend all day in church, knowing at any given moment all of us are apt to sin. Where in the bible does it say you will always agree with your pastor or like the decisions he or she makes?

Before this year is out, we need to ask God to take us back to where we first believed. Take us back to where we were obedient to his word. Take us back to where we were not looking at everybody in the church, because we were to busy making sure our soul was right. Take us back to where we reverenced the pastor and had a reverential fear of the Lord.

God help us to remember, then Lord help us to get back on track.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

We Haven’t Made It Yet

Everyone is talking about what 2015 is going to bring, but no one is talking about what today holds. Sadly, everyone is not going to make it to see 2015. Or perhaps, God may decide it’s time to send Jesus back today, or tomorrow. Have you prepared for today? Do you have the armor of God on today? Have you discounted the last few days left in this year? Are you already living in 2015?

The bible says; what is your life but a vapor, here today and gone tomorrow. I’m not trying to dampen anyone’s spirit, but when Jesus taught his disciples to pray, he said give us this day. Only worry about today, for tomorrow will take care of itself. And, if we are blessed enough to see 2015 then we can be concerned with that. But until then, this is the day that the Lord hath made. This is the day of repentance. This is the day, that God allowed you to take part in and see what mighty things he’s done. This is the day, to make up in your mind, as for me and my house we will serve the Lord.

We haven’t made it to 2015 yet, but we have made it to today. What will your response be to today?

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

You Don’t Know My Story

Everyone has a story, that’s what gives them their testimony. However, everyone thinks their story is more important than the next persons story. That’s why when you go to church and sit next to the thieves who try to steal your praise, they think your story is irrelevant. Therefore, they want you to sit down and stop praising God.

The only difference between your story and the other persons story is, you decided to praise your way through your story. No matter how bad your story got, you trusted God. No matter how much you wanted to throw in the towel, you gave one more praise. It was that praise that allowed you to run on to see what the ends going to be.

And since your neighbor sitting on the row next to you don’t understand that, they don’t want you to praise. They don’t understand how you could trust God and your spouse has left you. They don’t understand, how you can praise God when the person you trained for the job is now your boss. They don’t understand, how you keep telling people of the goodness of God when you are barely making ends meet.

So, the next time you go to praise God and the thieves in church start looking at you; tell them, there’s a story behind my praise but I don’t have time to tell you. Then praise God like he’s already made a way. Praise God like he’s restored everything that the palmerworm, the cankerworm and the locust have eaten up. Praise God, like you’re living in the overflow. When you think about it, people really don’t need to know your story. All they need to know is that you have a charge to keep and a God to glorify.

Fear

All of us have fear of some kind. Some of us fear failure, while others of us my fear being alone. Some of us may fear losing a job, while others of us fear becoming successful. Job said; the thing I feared the most has come upon me.

How has fear guided your life? What have you done or failed to do because fear gripped you to the point that it paralyzed you? When fear pops up, put the word of God on it. No matter how many times a day you are confronted with it. That means for some of us, we are going to speaking the same word of God all day long.

After while, that thing you feared will not have a stronghold on you anymore. But don’t get comfortable, the enemy is going to come at you with something else. And, that’s ok, that’s his job. But, your job is to stay in the word, and stay prayed up. So when the enemy comes to kill, steal, and destroy. You can say no way devil, no weapon formed against me shall prosper.

Stop letting fear hold you back.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
