He Hears!

This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
1 John 5:14

He Hears
Are you living frustrated because your prayers aren’t being answered the way you want? Your plans aren’t working out? Take the pressure off. God is in control. He’s still on the throne. You’re not always going to understand it. If you did, it wouldn’t take any faith. You could save yourself a lot of frustration if you’d learn to have unconditional trust. The closed doors, the disappointments, the delays—it’s all working for you. And yes, it’s good to be determined. Be persistent. But let God answer your prayers His way. If He’s not changing it, not removing it, not opening it, don’t fight it. Learn to embrace where you are. He’s given you the grace not just to be there but to be there with a good attitude. If you’re going to pass the test, keep a smile on your face. Keep a song in your heart. Keep passion in your spirit. Don’t drag through the day the Lord has made. He’s working out His plan for your life. He’s going to get you to where you’re supposed to be.
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You for the privilege of coming to You, the Creator of the universe, and being able to ask You for the things that are on my heart. Thank You that You hear me and are faithful to bring Your will to pass. I believe and declare that the answer is 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...
