What`s Our Priority?

Its certainly not breaking news to anyone that the Corona virus has disrupted and haalted much of our daily lifestyles. This (plan)demic has caused catastrophic interruptions in the worldwide economy, not to mention the loss of lives, and still wreaks havoc on the lives of families across the globe.  


As the world governments appear to be trying to 'manage' the spread of this illness they are at the same time tightening the restrictiins upon societies everywhere. It wouod seem that the main goal is not to eradicate a severe illness but to use a (supposed) epidemic to bring about a global lockdown which serves their egostical purposes.


At first glance one could easily say that their wicked ambitions are working. There is growing civil unrest in our American cities, family breakdowns in many households, rampant divorce among couples and a rapidly increasing hatred of God and all that is considered good. The American dream has been exchanged for the American nightmare.


Dont misunderstand me, please. There is no doubt that this virus is real. It has taken many lives around the world and is still a dangerous threat to even more, but I would encourage you to look at the numbers being given. They are not accurate. If anything, they are greatly exaggerated.  The WHO and the CDC have lied to us. Their aim is to mislead in order to secure more control.



Fear is a great weapon of the enemy and he uses those who have 'dark hearts' in order to advance his wicked schemes. So many are willing participants in this game. They are blinded to spiritual things and this world-wide plague is just one of their platforms being used to deceive the populations. Sadly, so many are being led by the nose into oblivion.



As a born-again, Spirit-filled believer in Christ Jesus I am deeply aware that this scenario is a form of spiritual warfare. The devil is adamant about using sickness and disease to stifle his enemies. He often receives help from us because we ignorantly go about telling him our weaknesses. Our words give us away, just as scripture explains to us.



When the Lord Jesus came to this earth he brought healing and victory. The bible tells us in Isaiah 53 and verse 5..."by his stripes we ARE healed". We are already healed by his precious blood. That's physical healing AND spiritual.  Being saved, born from above, is great health to us. Yet we very often plead the opposite. We give the devil 'a place'. An opportunity to strike.



We are to speak life and health, not sickness and death. This practice is very foreign to the world but when we became a child of God we instintainiously became strangers and pilgrims in this world. We are the real 'weirdos' to others. We no longer belong here. That's great news, actually.



As I ponder the condition of this earth, the pandemic, the unrest and violence that has spread throughout the nation and the growing hatred to Christianity, it grieves me and I know it breaks the heart of God. He loves us ALL so much yet we turn our backs and mock him. It's a terrible indictment upon mankind. 



I am convinced, however, that with much prayer, fasting and seeking his face, we will see a great change come and a revival to our land soon. I have to believe this and I am expecting it. I pray that it starts with me and that the fire of revival will be kindled in my own heart today. 



May the Lord God help us to see the errors of our ways and humbly repent, asking his forgiveness.  We must to this or we will see our nation fall very quickly.

Can I Really Trust God?

When we are children we fully trust our parents to be our providers, our protectors and our nurturers! It comes to us 'automatically' and we don't seem to have any problems doing just that! So as adults, why does it seem to be such a difficult thing to trust God, the creator of the entire universe, with our daily lives? Why do we hesitate to give over our cares and concerns to the one who can easily handle it all and provide everything we need in the areas of health, finances (a real big area), marriage and raising our children right? Is it supposed to be so difficult? No, not at all! Especially for those who call themselves Christians, who have put their faith in the blessed word of God and in the death, burial and resurrection of his son, Jesus! Fact is, however, that we do have a hard time putting that same kind of simple, unadulterated, faith in God to take care of us, always! We may feel that there is something 'extra' that we must do in order to bring about the results we are hoping for in a given situation! We just want to "help God get things done" and feel better about the situation, whatever it may be! News flash....God doesn't need any help from us to get things done! Did that hit home for anybody? It did for me!

I have a great deal of difficulty 'letting go' and letting God take over! After all, he is in control of it all anyway! He holds our very next breath in his hand, so why am I fearful that he can take good care of my own life? It doesn't make good sense, really! Worry is a common thing among Christians, sadly! For us to worry about certain things is a contradiction against the LORD and his saving grace! It goes against his character of loving us unconditionally! When we worry about anything we are telling God that he can't take care of us! Are you serious? The Almighty God created the universe and you in his own image and, yet, you say he can't do what you can do by worrying? That borders on blasphemy, folks! It's also absurd!

The LORD did not "save" us in order to leave us alone to fend for ourselves! He has promised that he "will never leave us or forsake us" (Psalms 9:10) for any reason whatsoever! He is faithful and his love for us is a constant love! You can depend upon it! In order for our lives to be blessed and secure, we must learn that we can fully trust God! To do otherwise is disobedience and sin! God deserves much better from us!


If we are struggling today with insecurity and worry over situations that we have no control over but God does then we need to take a "self examination" and fix the problem! Here's a hint....it's a "heart problem'! It's my prayer for us all that we begin today, right away, to make the change needed to put our trust in the most High God and rest in his power to meet all of our needs!

Is It What It Seems?

  • This life we have been given is not to be squandered or to live 'half hearted'! It's meant to be lived with the fullness of discovery and adventure! God expects us to live it with lots of energy and excitement, if at all possible!  Of course God knows that we all have struggles and hardships, as does everyone we know, and he knows what our future holds for us, already!  None the less, he stills watches and 'roots' for us to make it a good life, filled with new adventures and discoveries of our own potential and that of those we meet everyday! It's not complicated at all...God wants us to win! We are born to be winners! Born to be overcomers and encouragers as well and he has equipped us to do this! This thing we call 'life' can be fascinating, curious and terrifying at the same time with situations and circumstances which are out of our control, but we are still meant to live it! For those suffering from physical illness or disease, you may question the purpose of your own life and that's certainly understandable! It's quite a different existence when one is physically disabled or ill, but you can still find your purpose, your calling! Being sick or disabled is NOT your calling and you are NOT limited in your purpose! There are things you may not be able to do, and perhaps, much you can't do, but you still matter and you can add something unique and powerful to society! There are those you can reach that someone with good health may not be able to! You can still 'live'! God isn't done with you yet! With your own, personal gifts, you can serve other's and contribute much to this life! On a spiritual and an emotional level, we are all different! There are areas of humanity that we are just now beginning to explore and to discover! Areas of the brain that we have never attempted to utilize as yet! Indeed, our brains may hold the key to much of our existence! I'm not necessarily talking about anything physcic or para-normal but on a spiritual level! After all, I am convinced that God created us and since that is my belief, I am sure that our brains are probably the most complex and technical computer in the entire world! How can we fully know it's capabilities? There must be an endless amount of new information just waiting to be unlocked within our very own brains! Perhaps the cure for every disease is waiting in the fabric of the human brain! Maybe a new technology which would allow mankind to travel the stars or inventions waiting to be discovered that would revolutionize the way we travel here on the earth or in space! It could be that the most dynamic mathematical equations are pushing their way forward inside this tiny brain, waiting to be discovered! So much is possible and much has been learned about mankind's brain that is quite exciting!  Whether you are a map-maker, a fireman, a doctor, a librarian or a writer, you have something to offer which could be the spark that lights the next 'big' thing to come in scientific or medical all discovery! No matter what we may have been told by someone who "doesn't know any better" tells you that you aren't going to amount to much, you must ignore these words! You were miraculously and wonderfully created and you have a specific 'assignment' to complete and, most likely, it has much to do with helping others! We are all here for each other, despite what we have learned by the life we have been 'made' to live!  I say 'made' because the so-called 'powers that be' have dictated to us! Those people are what I call, "life suckers" or "dream stealers", and they have no claim on our lives!  God is ready to reveal to us the plans he has made for each of us before we were even born! A perfect plan to prosper us and not to harm us (Isaiah 26:11) and he is just waiting for us to realize it! No matter what stage of life you might be in, you are ordained by the Almighty to succeed and proceed, ahead, 'full steam'! Today is the day and your journey is just beginning!
