Avoiding future regret.

Speak your mind. Life is too short to leave important words unspoken.... Those who harbour their words and feeling are likely to get hurt at the end of the day. It's true you won't be judged by what you did not say, but there are some important things in life that deserves vocal expression. So be bold enough to speak your mind.

Walking In Dominion

Dressing The Garden. God charged Adam with the command, “to dress” and “to keep” the garden of Eden. Adam was placed in the garden by God. Before the family was formed, God charged Adam to cover and to protect the garden. It was Adam’s responsibility to “dress” the home. The word “dress” means “to serve”. Adam was to serve the house as He served and honored God. Adam was tasked by God to ensure the affairs of the household were taken care of. At that point, the garden of Eden was the only economy in existence. God gave Adam the charge to serve and to tend to Adam’s economy. God placed Adam as the head to serve, lead and to produce in the garden — economic leadership and governance starts in the garden. God gave Adam the Authority to rule within the confines of His Word. When man‘s actions are in line with God’s Word, his steps and path are ordered by the Lord. In addition to Adam serving in the garden and tending to everything in it, God also commanded Adam to “keep” the garden, w...

Life's Hardest Lessons Ever Learned

People never learn anything by being told, they have to find out for themselves.” ―Paulo Today is my birthday and as I aged, I woke up this morning with this thought. Joseph Samson! Don't waste your life. It was in the midst of my thoughts that I realized three important things life has thought me. First, the worst things can happen to the best people for no obvious reason at all. Second, most people, even the ones you don’t think care, are genuinely good people who do care. And finally, just as it is difficult to see all the opportunities life gives you until you’re looking back, it is virtually impossible to fully understand certain life circumstances until they actually happen to you. It’s a variation of this final point that I want to explore further today – seven important life lessons almost everyone learns the hard way, eventually. √The people you lose remain a part of you. Someday you will be faced with the reality of loss. And a...

Created To Be Great

Greatness in life has everything to do with your attitude, Most modern cars have cruise control. Cruise control was invented as a way to maintain the same speed whether uphill or down. Many people use it on long-distance drives as a way to manage constant speed. However, you won’t find the cruise control feature on motorsport racing vehicles. Why? They have been designed for speed, acceleration, performance and greatness. Satan wants to lull the hearts of men to cruise control and get you to just coast through life. He doesn’t want you to wake up and realize that God has created you to be great. God did not create men to be average, with no drive and no ambition. Instead, he created men to be great for His kingdom. Let’s look at Genesis 12:1-2. In verse 1, God calls Abram to obey His word and to submit to His authority. In verse 2, God promises greatness tied to the obedience in verse 1. In other words, Abram would only experience the greatness in verse 2 if he obeyed the co...

The Laws Of Faith

Secret To Experience Kingdom Power. Hebrews 11. Let’s begin by reviewing the first four laws of the spiritual life: Law 1: He’s God and We’re Not. Law 2: God Doesn’t Need Us But We Desperately Need Him. Law 3: What God Demands, He Supplies. Law 4: What You Seek, You Find. Each law covers a major area of our relationship with God and leads to a personal response. Once we know that God is God and we are not, we submit ourselves to his authority. This principle leads us to worship and praise. When we realize how desperately we need God, our logical response is to confess our sins and cry out to God for his mercy. This law introduces us to such concepts as human sinfulness, humility, and the importance of prayer. The good news of the gospel comes in the Third Law. Here we reach out with the empty hands of faith to receive what God offers us. This principle teaches us about God’s love, compassion, mercy and grace, and leads us to gratitude, joy, and the deep confidence t...

Two Vital Needs of Every Church Planter

Jesus not only showed us how it’s done, he empowered us to do what he did. I’m not talking about evangelism, I’m talking about making disciples. Paradoxes are fun—they’re like brain-teasers. Some people love to talk about them. It’s something else altogether to live inside of them. Jesus modeled living inside the most difficult paradoxes. For example, how can the ruler of the world become an example of obedience? How can the object of worship himself become an example of how to worship? How can the perfect Son of God call others to follow him, and then demonstrate the way to follow? It’s part of his genius, his glory and his nature. What’s more, he not only showed us how it’s done, he empowered us to do the same. I’m not talking about evangelism, I’m talking about making disciples. Real discipling is about making a way for others to approach the Father. If we’re only talking about Jesus, most of us are comfortable with this paradox, but our comfort is not his first concern. He told ...

God spare you for a reason.

Never Give Up On Your Dream

Life has no meaning unless it is lived on purpose. "If you can dream it, you can do it. " Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse." Walt Disney Joseph went from the pit to the palace, to prison and then finally he stands as the Prime Minister of Egypt. One would have to admit that Joseph had ample reason to give up, throw in the towel, become a victim and allow his dream to die. I am sure thankful he did not give up halfway; the entire nation of Israel survived because Joseph refused to give up his God-dream. Joseph was afforded an opportunity to stand before Pharaoh and interpret his dream putting Joseph in a powerful position to lead and rule over not only his brothers who sold him but nations. I remember preparing this sermon for church on dreams and was so very inspired by the life of Walt Disney. Today thousands of people enjoy a place of fun, joy, music, and laughter. It is a place where the oldest person can become a child again ...
