Taking Ownership



     Happy Saturday! I normally do not write on Saturday but I've had these words churning on the inside of my spirit since yesterday.
     How many of you own your home or maybe you are in the initial stages of preparing for home ownership? No matter where you find yourself in this process I know you will admit like me it takes some work. There are so many logistics which must be in place before you are presented with the keys that will unlock your future. Some aspects of the process may even require more work in order for you to walk through the door.
     Today I want to speak to a different type of ownership that we have been given. God has given each one of us a purpose and just like with the process of home ownership we must put in our due diligence if we are going to fully walk into the manifestation of our assignment. It may require going back to school. It may require connecting with a mentor. It may require long hours of planning and researching. But whatever it requires we must put the time in! We are all at different stages in the process of our journey. Some may still be unsure, some maybe in the implementation phase, but whatever stage you find yourself it's time to become fully vested in the plan.
    The road to home ownership is paved with many bumps along the way, but if you will  continue to move forward you will obtain that great American dream.
     Well the same applies to our God given purpose. It's time to pursue like never before and not retreat back!
     Are you the owner of a purpose or a cosigner for someonelse? It's your time! Take possession!

Faith Under Fire

    I can remember like it was yesterday standing in front of the fireplace to warm my hand and legs on a cold winter day. My grandfather would always have the den warm and toasty for us when we came in from outside playing. Our family would sit in the den for hours and watch the fire and listen to it crackle. Sometimes the the fire would die down, but my paw paw had a remedy for that. Just outside the door he kept a wheelbarrow with some pine wood which he used to ignite the fire again. In a matter of seconds the fire would be backing burning fierce.      And sometimes our faith is just like my grandfather's fire, extremely hot and it slowly fizzles out. So what cause our faith to stall out during those critical times? Well many things! We can become discouraged when we don't see the manifestations of God's promise come to pass on our time watch. Doubt, unbelief, and worry will cause your faith to fade away. The lies of the enemy and others he uses to bring ne...

Hands Up!!!!

Hands Up! Thus I will bless You while I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. (Psalms 63:4)      This morning as I was standing in the kitchen pouring my coffee and watching the rain fall from the sky I heard the voice of the Lord say unto me, “lift up your hands!” The lifting of the hands is a sign of surrender and reverence. If the police were to stop you their first response would be for you to get out of the car and lift your hands. The purpose of lifting your hands indicates to the police you are in agreement and will not try anything tricky. It also shows you are not hiding anything. This same principle applies in the spiritual realm as well.      So many times as believers and non-believers we try to be so strong when we are faced with various test and trails in life. It is during these times of storm that we truly begin to realize our natural strength often fails us. Proverbs 3;5-6 reminds us to trust in the Lord with al...

iGod Is Near and All You Need

iGod(My God) Is Near You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore .      Over the past few years the cellular phone industry has changed in a major way with the birth of the iPhone. Once the iPhone hit the market all other cellular phone companies had to go back to the drawing board and design a product which surpassed the iPhone introduced by Apple. Why was this phone so special? What capabilities did the iPhone posses that others did not offer? The main reason everyone switched from the current brand of cellular phone to iPhone was simple. One device was able to perform the task of many devices; it is so amazing how one thing has the power to alter the lives of so many. Our God, the iGod has the power to transform the lives of all who seek him.      There is something about iGod! There is an indescribable feeling that comes over me when I begin to focus my ent...
