Courageous Fathering

This is the season to step up and make a stand for all who are fatherless. Fathers, take up the mantle of priesthood and offer daily incense of prayer for your family. Take up the mantle of protector knight and stand in the gap invoking God's protection over your family. Take up the mantle of provider king and declare health, freedom and peace over your family. Wives, support your husbands in their fathering. Your enemy is not each other but the evil one who seeks to kill, steal and destroy. Children obey your parents and emulate your father as he emulates God.

Hurriedness - the bane of joyful living

Living a life of hurriedness robs us of our joy. Jesus was never in a hurry for He knew all things are in God's timing and plan. So let us walk patiently, listen carefully and move in step (however slow it may seem) to the Spirit's leading each day.

Loving the unlovely

What if God the Father decided that we are so unlovely or not worthy to be loved that He did not send Jesus His Son to come to earth to save us?
What if Jesus decided that we are so unlovely or not worthy to be loved that He did not come to die for our sins?
What if the Holy Spirit decided that we are so unlovely or not worthy to be loved that He did not come to earth after Jesus' resurrection and ascension, to dwell in us and transform us?
Where would we be?
Yes, we are unworthy BUT YET He came.

The Year of Shaking Loose

This year will see much of the world's systems shaken so that what remains should honour God. His Kingdom is advancing in greater measure than before; not by human effort or plans but by His sovereign will. Hallelujah!
How then should we live?
1. Circumspectly with our eyes and ears open to the Spirit.
2. Compassionately with our hearts and lives open to the Body of Christ.
3. Confidently with our mouths declaring the praises of God and confessing His authority and will be done on earth as it is in heaven; completely defeating the enemy of our souls with His Word.

Jesus is ...

The Way - He is able and willing to bring you from depression to deliverance. Nothing and no one can obstruct His deliverance as you walk His Way.
The Truth - He is able and willing to bring you from deception to discernment. No evil or wrong thinking can deceive you as you walk in His Truth.
The Life - He is able and willing to bring you from duty to devotion. No longer working or serving to be blessed but so blessed with His Life that you work or serve in adoration and gratitude.

Spiritual Disciplines - means not an end

Daily spiritual disciplines of reading the Bible, worship, prayer and speaking in tongues are means to an end and not an end in themselves. They should not make us feel we have arrived spiritually and become spiritually proud because of our ability to accomplish them.
Rather they help train us to be sensitive to the Lord as we seek to commune with Him through these tools. The end of spiritual disciplines is an ever growing love for the Lord and a deeper level of walking in step with Him as He daily lead us. The disciplines allow us to enjoy the Lord even as He enjoys our company.
So let us seek Him with discipline so that we can enjoy this relationship of faith with Him each day.
