Living to obey
God woke me up a 5:30 this morning as He does on occasion to have me pray for something, now right before I went to be I prayed Lord show me how to obey you more. So as I’m struggling to keep my eyes open He says to me, first you must be willing to obey. Ok Lord I’m willing. As I am waking up I hear Jeremiah 67, as i’m still waking up rubbing my eyes so they adjust to the light I...

Fun
Wonderful, beautiful, glorious, matchless in every way. That is what Gos is.
I just had a revelation! Let me set the stage.
I was in my room worshiping before I jumped into bed for the night mind you not something I do on a regular basis if I’m being honest. I have been praying lately on how to surrender more lately to The Lord and I believe He gave me that desire. So I’m...

Humility and Daniel
I’ve been reading the book of Daniel lately and I’m completely amazed at how humble he was and how much God’s favor was on his life. Let me try to explain.
So here’s this Jewish boy that had just been forced out of his city let alone country and placed into a school for the kings future wise men/ advisors. Right there that’s pretty amazing. Then he defies the kings...

Sometimes
Jesus I need you now more than I know. I need your love to bring me peace. I need your grace to fill me. I know I am not perfect, I know I am weak and lazy and lustful. But You my God are perfect, You are loyal, You are righteous, loving, holy, and a friend. Thank you for Your love, grace. You are the best thing to ever happen. Thank you for Your forgiveness, thank you for saving me and giving me...

Sweet and Simple
So i read the sermon on the mount again lately and i found a whole new life in it! I love it when something you’ve read in the past comes to life again and stirs your heart! This time it was the fact that everything Jesus states in it is against the world view on things, and that all we need is hope (the hope Jesus gave us when he died) in order to become meek, pour in spirit, pure in heart,...
LOVE
A friend sent me a text today saying “living aware for the need for more without doing the guilt shame thing will position us for the breakthrough we desire.” that’s a good word. You see God’s LOVE for us is greater than the guilt we have for ourselves. It’s stronger than the shame we carry. It’s more powerful then any feeling we could have. Not sure about you but I want to experience that love...

Inheritance
The Lord says I have given you an inheritance! Remember this: I have given you an Inheritance.
This is something the Lord has been telling me lately, i think its for everyone though. We are sons and daughters of the most high God and he has given us eternal pleasures as psalms puts it. But I believe He wants to give promotion out, give you the inheritance you have on this Earth and its good!

You call me Friend
You are not just loved by The King but He likes you so much. Have you ever had that feeling where you see someone at school and instantly are attracted to them and then you find out there into you? Or you have a friend that you always want to be around because it’s just fun? Doesn’t that do wonders to your soul? It’s nice when your enjoyed for who you are. Grab this, God feels that way about you...
Worthy
Fill me Up! Take my breath away! Consume me! Love me! Teach me to love the way you love. Make me hungry! Be High and Lifted up. I was listening to a message from Heidi Baker today and she was praying for our nation and calling us to live a life worthy of God’s Presence. It stuck me. I began to look into my heart and see where I have fallen short of that, where I desire to give more to Him. I...
Overcome US!
We are now less than forty days away from The next Unseen Conference. And I believe that The Lord is giving promotion out, He is calling people higher. Let me put it this way he wants to give you more of everything! Everything that has been going on in my personal life has had favor on it lately. I just switched jobs and Gods hand is all over that, With church he is showing me more bringing me...

Lets Press In
So, its funny i had just written a whole post and then accidental deleted it. That along with felling like poo at the moment made me want to do this more! I will not settle for less. We have to press in. If not then what happens another day passes and we grow cold, complacent. God has so many blessings to pour out over you, all you have to do is seek Him. Jeremiah 29:13 says “if you look for...

Unity
We have received the greatest calling anyone can ever receive. I’ve been reading through Ephesians lately and a couple verses really strike me. Jesus’ intent is to know the church with the manifold wisdom of God. ( look at chapter 3:10-12) Paul then writes in the next chapter to keep the unity because we all carry the same Spirit. (4:1-6) These instructions are words for us, Paul may...

Be Joyful or Happy
Be joyful in all things. I try to live by that and I got a chance to live by that yesterday.
The story starts with a couple friends and myself went for a nice mountain bike ride. Everything was great it was nice and cool, slightly overcast. We were all looking forward to the ride because we don’t get to ride as much as we have in the past. The weather is great the trail is a little loose...

Something Better
“everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible but not everything is constructive. Nobody should seek his own good but the good of others.” - 1 Corinthians 10:23-24.
What if we lived like this? What if we lived in sacrifice to God, to others? Bill Johnson said once that freedom is having the choice to do what’s right. Yes all of our sins...

To be known
I don’t know about you guys but I want to be known. To be known is to be loved. I’m not talking about being famous or doing something really amazing, but to be known by God himself. 1 Cornithians 8:2 says a man who loves God is known by God. Think about that, the creator of everything wants to know me! Why? My answer for that question is does it really matter? I mean God Himself wants...

Standards
I was watching superman returns with my little brother tonight and we got to talking about why no one likes superman as much as batman or spiderman or anyother hero for the matter. We came up with a few reasons why, he is to powerful, he’s a bit cheesey etc… I think it goes a bit deeper. I believe he lives at a higher standard than everyone else and we write him off for it. I think that’s why his...

The Master.
He is on your side, He is on my side and nothing is impossible for him to do. Today I was driving to work struggling with some stuff while my ipod was on shuffle. A song came on just after I asked the Lord for comfort and the song was about learning to listen to his voice more than talking. “bite my tongue” - Relient K and the line that stood out to me was “the power of your...
Bad Moods
I hate being grumpy and I have been for the last two and a half hours. You know those times when you have to do something such as homework that you dont want to do because there is something a lot more interesting waiting for your attention? Well thats the way its been for me, needless to say something goes wrong when you just want to get through the thing that id so to speak “holding you...
Sincerity
I am not a fan of “fake.” To be sincere is a lifestyle, sadly people have their own versions of what it means to be sincere. Some people live to serve, some live to please their desires, some are sincere about business and others about family. And all of that is great to an extent. I believe if you want to make a change in the world you need to be sincere about one thing; love people....
Test 1.2.3.
So for fun i have been reading “The Count of Monte Cristo” in it the main character Edmond Dantes is wrongfully sent to prison where he is put in solitary. He went from becoming the captain of a trading ship at the age of 19, fiance to a lovely woman to having nothing over night. But yet he fought maybe not in most healthy way but he did fight. And when he managed to escape he was...

Listen to our Hearts
Father I thank you for listening to our hearts, i ask that you show us whats in them! You know us better than we know ourselves. Show us who you created us to be, and with that show us more of your heart. Partner with us Jesus as we seek the Fathers heart. Thank you for truly listening to our hearts.
Milk
1 Peter 2:2 “Like newborn babies, crave spiritual milk so that you may grow up in your salvation.” I know this is nothing new to you but I believe it is super important. We are made to grow and what happens if you dont eat? You dont grow. Its that simple. So just like we feed our bodies we are to feed our spirit. And the only way to feed your spirit is to spend time with God Himself....
Saint within the Wretch.
“I’d rather forget and not slow down than gather regret for the things I can’t change now, and when I become what I can’t forget resurrect the saint with the wretch.” If you don’t know that is part of a song by Relient K, and a really cool prayer. I believe we all need to come to this point. The point where we know we mess up and when we do mess up to know we...
Dependence
I forgot who it was but I heard someone talking about how we are raised to be independent, when what we need to learn is how to be dependent on Jesus. Easier said than done right? We have to rely on God so much that trusting him is not an issue. We have to know that we are taken care of, no matter what happens. Think of it this way if we know we are created for a purpose, if we know that God sent...
Restoration
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LcyQOLVS_U
I was looking for some worship videos and came across this one from IHOP’s One Thing conference. Needless to say it really spoke to me and i felt like I should share it with everyone.
I pray that a new romance is found between you and Jesus, that restoration redefines who you are. I ask that God steals your heart and begins to show you what his...
Hard Times
Nothing is ever to hard for you to do, if you know how to receive the tools you need to complete the task that in the natural may seem to hard. Let me put that simpler. God plants things in our hearts, like dreams. He then gives us the choice to make it happen or not make it happen. To go for it or to do what ever you want. Now when you go for it he gives us another choice to partner with him or...
Courage
Courage is a funny word. It is for this reason, because it can be faked. You can tell someone they are courageous for doing something when they really act out of fear for themselves. True courage on the other hand is facing your problems head on and saying I will overcome you because I know i am meant for more. Its being in tune with what God’s heart is saying and having the faith/conviction...
Trust
I was going through some old notes from past conferences and messages last night asking the Lord to show me what I need to work on. The thing that stood out was TRUST IN ME. I realized that i havent been so good at that lately, i have been trying to do things my way and it hasnt worked out so well to be honest. So how do you trust? i know its harder than it sounds.
Father show us how to trust...
What To Do?
This afternoon I spent hanging with a friend who just found out his wife is leaving him, he has a daughter. We got to talking about it a little bit and he told me I am going to fight for sole custody of my daughter even if it takes me loosing everything I have, he finished that sentence with at least Ill have her. That really spoke to me, you see God feels that way about us. He gave his Son so he...
You
You are a Son.
You are a Daughter.
You have an inheritance.
Father show us ALL you have for us.
Today is...
Today is what you make it. It can be glorious or stressful. It turns out how you want it to turn out. In other words what you focus on determines on the outcome. With that being said what is your focus? Is it on all the things other people are doing, is it on what you are doing, is it on what God is doing? A wise man told me once you have to be intentional with your decisions/thoughts. I had a...
A Change in Heart
Is it possible to love an idea more than the actual thing? Is it possible to find comfort in something when you KNOW there is something better for you? Well kinda. Its more of a selfish desire and not love. Love is a choice and it is by far not selfish for any reason at all. God wants to show us what LOVE is really like and not what the world or the dictionary says it is. But for that to happen to...
To Live or Not to Live
We have a choice in whatever it is we do, thats right a choice! So why is it that people get stuck on things or somewhere they dont like? Well I believe it is they forget what life is really like, what it means to truly live life to the fullest. And yes we all will fail at times but that is what GRACE is for right? We should pray for destiny’s to be awakened for people to realize that they...
In Love
“Im falling more in love with every single word I with hold, Im falling more in love with every single word YOU say” You know when you hear a song and its totally about God even though the writer may not have intended it to be? Well thats where that came from. But Its do true, I believe its saying we need to listen more than talk when we spend time with The Heavenly Father. Because...
Who Will You Become?
I was listening to a sermon from Bill Johnson today and he was talking about how the nation of Israel received more of his blessing as a whole than anyone could ever receive by themselves. His point of the message was that we need to adopt people, business, churches etc… to pray for and partner with. Only then will God release blessing that are far beyond anything we have ever seen.
So...

Distractions
So its pretty funny how distractions do a job on your relationship with the Lord. Its happened to me in the last couple weeks. First you get caught up with something important that you have to finish like school work or a report. Then its smaller things like i need to relax from this crazy day and you get lazy or i just want to watch a show. And your time with Jesus tends to float off the...

What to do when you don't know what to do.
While i am witing for a class to end sitting here got me thinking about how your time is very important. I believe that we are created to DO things. Created to Love, Honor, Be Great!
Today in one of my classes we were introducing ourselves, one of the things we were suppost to say is a hobby we have or what we do in free time. So many people said i quote, “I don’t do anything.”...
Contending for your life.
So I have been thinking lately about contending. Its first makes me think of boxing or mma fighting where a fighter has to work or earn his way up the ranks by fighting other fighters, until one day hopefully he/she gets to the championship fight. Thats like our lives. We fight everyday of our lives against things we dont even see. We fight spritually one way or another and alot of people get...
Subtraction and Addition
So today was a bit lame to put it plainly. My family has had 4 cars die on them in the last few months two of them being today. That on top of everything else in life at the moment is crazy. Im not complaining dont get me wrong im just stating something before I make a point. Life is hard especially when your serving God because the enemy targets those who are trying to advance the Kingdom. With...
Whats Easy?
I think back on when I became a Christian and what i was like before I had an encounter with my Divine Father and realize how much of a mess I was. I was in a war with myself in my spirit. The more i think about it the more I realize I am a miracle. But I have to say nothing good comes easy. There is a word from my friends Pastor that sticks in my head “To accomplish your dreams it will take...

Inspiration
Have you ever felt unmotivated to do anything because it just doesnt matter. You think to yourself its doesnt seem like it will do anything for me. But then you remember how fun that thing used to be and it hits you where did my love go for that gift I had. Im talking about your passion not just some thing you used to do because your friends did it and you taged along. Im talking about something...
Love in Horrible Situations
This is just for encouragement because I am so thankful to have people I can call in a tough time that put perspective on things. Im so thankful that the Lord is all about love and all about relationships! He want us to keep moving forward and makes it possible for us to when things come up and fight us.
Father thank you so much for everything you have given me and continue to give me. I ask...
Take off your shoes and Run!
Sometimes following Christ is like running on loose gravel with no shoes. Have you ever noticed that? It hurts sometimes to be called a christian let alone live a life called by Jesus. We tend to want to protect ourselves from the path but still run or maybe walk down it when we are called to give everything to God. We want to put on socks so are feet dont sweat and shoes so they dont hurt. But by...
About the Heart
A friend of mine texted me the other day saying “Live Proverbs 4:23” When I looked it up it hit me pretty Hard. “Above all else guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” How I define that is, Let God rest in your heart insted of anything else that may be there. Let him take over and change you from the inside out. Let him heal you form the hurt you may be...

Intentions
So the last couple weeks have been interesting all around. I feel like the Lord has been trying to teach me to be really intentional with my actions, words, life. I am starting to understand it. Its one of those lessons that you dont really want to learn because it actually takes something from you. It requires you to sacrifice something you rather enjoy. But Its OUR JOB to stay burning. God works...
