Keep Praising!

He never doubted that God would keep his promise, and he never stopped believing. He grew stronger in his faith and gave praise to God.
Romans 4:20–21
Keep Praising
When Abraham was seventy-five years old, God promised him a son. Isaac, the promised child, was born twenty-five years later. How did he wait during those twenty-five years? Was he complaining, “God, when is it going to happen? I don’t understand it”? No, he kept giving God praise and saying, “Lord, I know my son is on the way. Thank You for my baby. Thank You that You are faithful to Your promises.” He kept believing and believing, and finally the baby came.

As with Abraham, you may have believed God’s promise but nothing’s changing, no doors have opened. But you’re constantly thanking God, living with an attitude of faith and expectancy. You may not realize it, but every time you thank God, you are close to seeing your promise. All of heaven comes to attention when you praise God. The breakthrough is about to happen. Don’t stop praising. Don’t stop believing. What God has put in your heart is in transit. It has your name on it. It’s headed your direction. It’s just a matter of time before it shows up.
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You that You are my God and that’s reason enough to never waver in believing Your promises. Thank You that my faith can grow stronger through this. I am going to keep believing, keep praising, and thanking You for what’s on the way. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Give Cheerfully!

        Give Cheerfully “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”  (2 Corinthians 9:7) When giving is done with the right attitude, it can be a gateway for God to move in significant ways in our lives. It is important to remember that it is not the amount we give that matters so much as it is the attitude that characterizes our giving. God loves it when we give out of a cheerful and grateful heart. God’s loving of a cheerful giver results in God taking action in our lives. Scripture states unequivocally that God will make all spiritual and earthly blessing abound to us so we can multiply our efforts for the kingdom. This is why I believe giving provides a major gateway for God to work in our lives, we can expect God to visit us. Jesus will fellowship with the cheerful giver, and the Holy Spirit will impart life to out mortal bodies. When we weave a pattern of giving...

Stay in Balance!

  Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.” He said this because there were so many people coming and going that Jesus and his apostles didn’t even have time to eat. Mark 6:31 Stay in Balance Everywhere Jesus went, He was healing people, teaching in the synagogues, pouring Himself into His disciples. People made constant demands on His time and energies. Imagine how He felt. As the Son of God, He had this incredible power, anointing, wisdom, so much to offer. Yet at times, when He was exhausted, He would go away from the crowds and get alone so He could be refreshed. Despite the pressing needs around Him, Jesus knew that He had to take care of His temple.  If the Son of God had to be alone and rest, if He couldn’t meet all the demands of the people around Him, why do we think we can go all the time and be everything for everyone? No matter how anointed, strong, smart, or gifted you are, you get depleted. Despite all the needs around you, yo...
