OverLoad

Good morning family, It's so great to get the opportunity to speak with you today. I know you each and everyone know how it is in this crazy world. 

Who's leading?

Your tasks at hand or You?

Something or Someone?

Colossians 3:23-24 ESV - Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.

Matthew 11:28-30 ESV - Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

I'm late this week getting this message out to you my family, and I'm truly sorry for that. I feel I too just as each of you from time to time tend to get side-tracked and maybe even OverLoaded. I'm not gonna say I'm OverLoaded actually, but it is a reminder of not to get there. One of my favorite Quotes I have on a plaque on my desk that says "Let Go and Let God". I think it important to remember to take everything you do in and discern that if it is of God's will for you or if its just good of the world. 

Romans 12:2 ESV - Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

I know I'm in a blessed season of my life right now and everything is such a blessing right now, but that is the perfect time for the enemy to lay out sticks and stones to hinder my path. I know I must be diligent in taking every thought captive and evaluating every task I take on before doing it. I have to weigh everything in my life by the peace gauge within my Spirit. WE ALL, Yes, We all must take everything to the Lord in prayer. 

Proverbs 3:5-7 - 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. 6 Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. 7 Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.

The part of this scripture that gets me the most is vs.7a, "Don't be impressed with your own wisdom." Yea, if we allow ourselves to fall into pride of the flesh we can get lost here. This ol' flesh will mislead us. It is so important that we do Submit and Humble ourselves before the Lord in everything from stepping out of bed to buying a home to taking a new job or even buying a soda at the store. Some would say this is a bit extreme and I sure wont claim to be the one that does this either, I promise I'm preaching more to myself here than anyone. I never say nothing that I'm not continually saying to myself, but I do have an understanding from the Holy Spirit that is suggesting never demanding that we do this. He is always loving and comforting, He only wants wants what's best for us. 

I'm sorry for the lingering and preaching, I guess I just needed to hear it myself this morning, and wanted to share it with you my family. I love you all and pray your day is NOT on OverLoad as it can get if  WE allow. Keep Him in the forefront of your mind and He will stir you to continual Victory.

Father We come to you this day with a humble heart and submitted mind. We give our all to you in every decision we make. Father guide us to your Glory in all things in our life. As we submit ourselves to your will Help us to Grow in your understanding and not that of ourselves or the world. We are willing and allowing your will to lead our lives Father. We pray all things in the wonderful precious gracious awesome humble merciful & amazing name above all names, Christ Jesus, Amen!

Prayer for all my family

 Good day family I'm so clear it's not morning been at a loss today. Had a friend who lost their son last night and he had a wife and children. Been humbling to say the least. I urge each of you to pass this on to those that may need this today. If your thinking of them this is for them.

Your Glory or His?

Good morning family so very good to speak with you again this morning. Sorry for the delay. I been really searching for  the right direction. Just know God is always on time. 

As I ask God where He wants my txt going this morning I got this message:

Then I go and get one more message from a motivational txt this morning. "If your too big to serve, your too small to lead." 

Point being where is you focus in your heart? In your thinking? Just as we discussed last night in Men’s group. Why do you do the things you do? Is it for His glory or yours? Are you serving to serve your own image or are you truly serving to glorify the King of Kings? Or are you even too good to serve in the capacity needed rather than the place you just happen to want too. Are you truly serving the need in your life, or are you above that type of service? Where's your heart? 

 Luke 6:45 - A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.

Dig deep! Where is your heart? Don't answer right away, No! Stop look in the mirror. Ask yourself, why? What reason? What for? Why do I do what I do? Is it for me? Or is it for the Father? I know I can set and say all the right things. Sure that's easy because we have been trained to do what's right now. I say this not to condemn in any way, this is only meant to help one another self evaluate. Only you and the HolySpirit can find this truth no one else. We must always dig deep and keep assured we are focusing on His glory and not our own. 

I love you all and only want us to be the best of the children of God we can be. I want us to continually lift one another up as high as we can go to honor and glorify God and not ourselves. I truly believe iron sharpens iron so we must let some sparks fly to get refined. 

Father help us to dig deep. Father help us to build off the refining fire. Help us to allow the sharpening in our lives to be who you want us to be. Father help us to be objective with ourselves and allow you to correct us when and where needed. Father we thank you for each and every person who's reading this to know they are loved. We thank you for all you continually give to us Father. We ask all in the wonderful loving precious gracious humble name above all names Christ Jesus, Amen!

Grace or Sin

 Good morning family. It's so very good to get the opportunity to speak with each of you this morning. I'm just so excited now that school has got started back up. I've been so looking forward to classes this year. It's such a blessing to have the opportunity to teach God's Word. I lean on and rely on the relationships I have with brothers and sisters of God to help steer me alway to Christ Jesus. My relationship with Jesus is the center focus of my life always following the peace gauge of the HolySpirit within me, but I need my family in Christ as well and that's each of you. 

The last couple of days I've been getting grace and sin as my direction to go this morning. I think on how His grace is sufficient always. 

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭12:9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

I came to to the understanding that there is no sin grace can't cover, no amount never too much ever. Does that mean sin on? No never! 

“What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means! Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭6:15-16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The word always has our answers even when we didn't realize we were looking for it. God is such a Good Good Father! I know how it is, we continually allow the condemnation to tear us down we allow it to rule out heat and minds especially in the midst of trials and troubles. We see the condemnation and not the Grace. We think about the grace sure but the condemnation tells us we don't deserve it. Well brothers and sisters there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus only a loving conviction. Kick that condemnation to the curb and remember His grace is always sufficient, and your sin could never be greater than His grace. No we don't deserve it, it's a gift. 

Yes we will fall from time to time, but as this last scripture teaches us. He is looking to our hearts what are we choosing to continually follow?  Sin or obedience? Who are you a slave too? Sin or obedience? Follow your heart that Christ has given you. 

“I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh.”

‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭11:19‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Know that your heart is a heart of flesh and will follow obedience. Quit allowing the enemy to take away any grace God has supplied. Take back what God has given you and stand on His Word!

Father thank you for your heart of flesh you have given each of us. Father thank you  for the grace you wash over us with. We recognize we could never deserve it, but we thank you Father. We receive it humbly Lord. Continually help us to follow the Holy Spirit in obedience. Remind us your grace is forever sufficient. We give you all the honor glory and praise in the precious beautiful blessed humble glorious amazing name above all names, Christ Jesus, Amen!
