1 Corinthians 2:9 - But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.
It has never entered our mind what God has prepared for us while on this earth. His intent is grand.
Instead of limiting ourselves by our imagination and experience, let's press on to a…

Ephesians 1:3 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.
The earthly minded will constantly try to restrain those who are seekers of God with such statements as,"don't become so heavenly minded that you are no earthly good," which is precisely the opposite of true…

Influence – to flow in from the Latin "INFLUERE" i.e. as you flow in your unique purpose and potential you accomplish great things and transform the world we live in and the lives of other people.
Assumptions based on scripture:
1. I can change the world.
2. I can influence another person’s life to the degree that it is transformed.
Matthew 12:10 And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked…

Matthew 24:45 - Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household?
The word tells us that God shows Himself strong in behalf of those whose hearts are "perfect" toward Him (2 Chronicles 16:9). "Perfect" doesn't men that we have to do everything just right and live without making a mistake. It means "devoted" -- a heart consecrated, dedicated, loyal and faithful to…

2 Timothy 1:4,6,7 - Greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears.....I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you....For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
There are times when you know what God has called you to do, but you just don't feel you have the inner resources you need to do it. Somehow you've simply run dry.…

IS OUR RELIGION ABOUT STAISFYING OUR NEEDS AND DESIRES?
2 Corinthians 5:15 - And He died for all, that they who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
Romans 14:7,8 - For not one of us lives for himself, and not one dies for himself; for if we live, we live…

Zechariah 12:1 - Thus says the Lord, Who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth and forms the spirit of man within him.
God is Spirit, and Zechariah 12 tells us that God formed the spirit of man within him. The human spirit is what makes relationship and fellowship with God possible at all. Through his spirit, man can walk in step with God. In the Spirit he is one with God.
Through…

John 8:39 - They answered and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham."
Abraham was an alien and stranger on the earth. The goal of his life was to have a place in what God was building, not men.

Joshua 1:9 - Have not I commanded you? Be strong, vigorous, and very courageous. Be not afraid, neither be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
By far the greatest gift ever received by us is the Holy Spirt Himself. Those who discover the value of His presence enter realms of intimacy with God never previously considered possible. Out of this vital relationship arises a ministry of power that formerly was only a dream.…

We were chosen in Christ long before the earth was made. A low opinion of yourself or self-hatred is not from God, but from the enemy.

Luke 13:20,21 - To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three mearures of meal till it was all leavened.
Much like light that exposes, or salt that preserves, leaven influences it's surroundings in a subtle but overpowering way. So it is with the infitrating power of the Kingdom of God.
Without a revelation of what God intends to do with His church, we…

Then Jesus gave a loud cry and said, 'Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit'; and with these words he died.

2 Corinthians 4:13 - "We have the same spirit of faith as he (the psalmist) who wrote, 'I have believed and therefore have spoken.' We too believe, and therefor we speak.
To speak by faith is simply to speak words that agree with the word of God instead of the circumstances around you. It's speaking from your spirit instead of from your mind.
The bible tells us that God uses words to "call those things…
