you are not un-fixable

some live stuck in the past some live focusing on their planned future missing the present some are living for the new year working on their resolutions missing the present many complaints and little thankfulness . a lot of why's and what if's and now they live with another day missed.

are you ready to move past the roadblocks and step out of the prison cell of your mind and all that you have locked up in your heart that has kept you bound in chains in a dark prison cell ? those things kept secret and locked away in your heart are not a secret kept from God . He knows and He wants to set you free. come to Him with your mask off. Those who work hard to remain self-sufficient and avoid God are wasting their life away.

you are not un-fixable you are not beyond repair don't believe the lies.
there is Hope in Christ Jesus still saves heals and makes whole . He makes all things new and He is calling you to come to Him today.

The only message in that bottle you're drinking & sipping from is empty !

The only message in that bottle you're drinking & sipping from is empty !
bonfires & beers laughter & cheers drunken nights throwing up
happiness for a moment temporary fix mask your hurt & pain wake up feeling the same empty & broke looking & searching working and saving
nothing changes for good , good friends you search for in the wrong crowd
wowed for a moment late night walks by the river people every where all lost drinking from the same bottle with the same message empty ! come to Jesus . okay you came to Him once maybe twice that's nice but you still never truly came to cling to Christ. He is not the blame people are not the blame the issue that remains is a heart issue !

every Christian goes through trials and hardships

every Christian goes through trials and hardships sometimes to drawl us closer sometimes to keep us humble it doesn't matter how faithful or how obedient you are . You are going to go through trials hardships & suffering . No servant is greater than his Master.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. We are troubled on every s...ide, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. So then death worketh in us, but life in you. - 2 Corinthians 4:7-12

don't stop praying don't stop believing keep pressing in keep pressing on

don't stop praying don't stop believing keep pressing in keep pressing on . keep planting seeds of Truth . for those going through the fire and you feel like you have been thrown in the furnace you are not alone and you are blessed just as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were ! for those of you who are faithfully and obediently serving the Lord and you are in a place of waiting and have been looking as to how the Lord is gonna do it , stop worrying & stressing and trust in the Lord with all your heart by faith believing that the Lord is going to make a way just as He did for Abraham . be encouraged today And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son. And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.

 

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
no matter what the circumstances look like no matter how people have rejected your request for help have faith do not waver . But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him
By faith the walls of Jericho fell down. By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land. By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac.

Not one of us chose God

Not one of us chose God . He chose us. I realize that my very thought to come to the Lord was given to me by the Lord my action of coming to the Lord was the work of His spirit drawling me to Him.my salvation is all a work of His spirit nothing of myself nothing of my efforts abilities or any of my deeds nor of my own strength or wisdom but all through faith by His Grace leaving me nothing of self... to boast about. for His purpose for His Glory He chose me and has empowered me by His spirit to walk with Him seek Him follow Him and obey Him. for His purpose for His Glory I've been chosen called and ordained that I should Go and bring forth fruit and that my fruit should remain . how is this fruit produced and how does it remain ? by the continuing work of His Holy Spirit. being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in me He will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. am I perfect ? no ! of course at times I fall short and that is when I need to be renewed in the spirit of my mind confess and repent and prayerfully follow instruction casting down

imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. am I perfect ? no ! Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

John 15:16 Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My Name, He may give it you.

Philippians 1:6 being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Love that moves with compassion

some will never truly have the Love that moves with compassion. our witness must be led by the spirit of the Lord. there are many scriptures where it reads that when Jesus saw them He moved with compassion. one has to truly know His Love having experienced The power of His love in order to see the broken and move with compassion and show them the Love of Christ. Leadership & Ministry is only effective if we are allowing the Holy spirit to lead us and speak to us and through us. there are many times when I have spoke boldly only as the Lord leads though. we have to have His balance which comes by His leading. He knows when to move with compassion and when to chasten . when we are led by the Lord the message He gives us to speak will uplift encourage and build up some and at the same time some will be convicted some may even be offend. the Truth goes without compromise always and Lord is able to speak such a message through us that will not return void but it shall accomplish that which He pleases,and it shall prosper in the thing whereto He sent it.

your attitude determines a lot

a key thing I have learned in the trials valleys struggles and obstacles is that your attitude determines a lot. you can endure it with a bad attitude and become paralyzed from growth and progress. but when you look at it with the attitude that there is something to be gained from all of this something to learn and most importantly you have to trust God with all of your heart are times are in His ...hands and we ought to allow the trials tests valleys struggles and obstacles to draw us closer to God and trust Him even more. don't give in and submit to how things look sure it might look impossible right now but for God with God and through God nothing is impossible. the best way to stand is in prayer, if you lean upon your own understanding strength and ability its like quick sand you will collapse and fall quick sinking in the circumstances . Jesus is our hope in the night in the midst of dark storms Jesus is our hope our strength joy peace our refuge and strong tower . allow your life to be built on the right foundation which is the Lord Jesus .
