God Isn’t Nervous

Is the Kingdom of God in disorder? Is it confused? Is God nervous? No! The first thing that Jesus said to His disciples after His resurrection was “Peace.” Regardless of the current turmoil, lawlessness and uncertainty we are witnessing in our nation and in the world, the kingdom of God is in order. The kingdom of God is at rest. God is not nervous. He has a wonderful plan that is being worked both in us and through us in the earth!

Presenting Yourself to God

“Lord Jesus, I thank You and take by faith the healing and deliverance You have given to me. Thank You that ALL things are now possible to me, because I believe Your ‘power of the possible’ is effectually working in my life. Thank You that I’m healed, I’m delivered and I am FREE!”

Hidden With Christ in the Father

When you were born again, you and the Father were made friends again. In Christ, you were brought back into the Father as He desired from the beginning. You were empty and without purpose, but now Christ lives IN you, and you do His works in the earth. You’re a new creation with a new life—in God’s eyes, a person without a past!

The Caretaker of Your Soul

There is only one way to overcome the pain and torment of your soul, the pain of your sickness and the fear and the torment that is in your mind, and that is to come to the Lord Jesus Christ and give it all to Him. And as you leave it all with Him—trusting Him as your caretaker—His peace will fill your mind and your spirit, soul and body, and raise you to a new level of life and health!

Your Covenant of Peace

I want to encourage you today that in the midst of your battles with whatever you may be facing—mentally, physically or otherwise—you have a covenant of peace with the Father. You are now ONE SPIRIT with the Lord Jesus Christ and are complete in Him! Renewing your mind to your covenant will transform your life and put you into a position where your mind will be at peace, your soul will find comfort, and your body can be completely healed! (Colossians 2:10; 1 Corinthians 6:17)

Living Reflections of Christ

“We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit” (2 Corinthians 3:18 HCSB). How do we become more like Christ? As we see Him here in this life through God’s Word, we are transformed into His image in our spirit, soul and body.  There is no, “If you do, then I will” in this verse. It doesn’t say we qualify if we are good enough, if we pray enough or if we give enough. He has qualified us by His sacrifice, His blood, and His victory over Satan. The key is to allow Him to transform us by the renewing of our minds!

Command and Conquer

I believe Elijah stood in front of the battles before him and was able to call down fire from heaven. He was able, when necessary, to stop the rain. He was able to speak the will of God over his situations and over an entire nation of people. Elijah’s prayers prevailed, and now, with the very life and power of God living within us, how much more so should ours!

Dangerous Diversions

What you focus on is what will impact your life. When Peter overcame the fear-filled boat by looking at Jesus and acting on His word, Peter walked on water. For a moment he was the happiest man alive—until he diverted his focus back to the wind and waves, and fear regained its dominance over him. Keeping your focus on God’s Word renews your mind and transforms you from faithless to fearless! (Romans 12:1-2)

Forgiven and Free

Jesus paid every penalty and removed every judgement that was against us. He was wounded and crushed for our sins. He was beaten that we might have peace. By the stripes He received on the whipping post, we were healed! “The Lord has taken away the judgments against you; He has cleared away your enemies. The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst; you shall never again fear evil.” (Zephaniah 3:15)

Sow to Grow

Many people, including some preachers, say that God is completely sovereign and therefore whatever happens is His will. But does a farmer reap what God sows? What kind of crop will the farmer get if he takes the year off and just tells God he will take whatever crop God produces? No, the farmer reaps what he himself sows. If this principle is true for the farmer, isn’t it true for us also?
