Don't Be A Spiritual Drop-Out

Hello All: Today I want to talk to you about being a spiritual “drop-out”. I know none of you are “drop-outs” because you are still following the Lord Jesus. I was reading in John 6:60-69, here Jesus was speaking in the synagogue about communion, saying drink my blood and eat my flesh. This was a little hard for some of the disciples to swallow (no pun intended). As a result, some disciples went home and walked with Jesus no more. We are going to look at some things that could cause one to become a spiritual drop-out (dropping out of the walk with Christ). In noticing these things we can keep ourselves in the race as well as others. The Word of God asks us in Galatians 5:7 you ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth of God’s Word? The Word of God also tells us to set aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us; looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. The following are just some of t...

Our Children's Learning

Good Morning All: We as Christians have God’s Word to apply in our lives and our children’s lives. God has given us the authority to call things to be not as though they are. We can speak a thing (good or bad) and have it manifested here in the land of the living (you shall have what you say). I know many of you have children that are returning to school or have already returned to school, so I’ve searched the scriptures to see what the Word has to say about our children’s learning, and I’m doing this for my children too. I know they have awhile before they go to school, but now is the time to speak in and over your child(ren) as far as his/her learning is concerned. We speak healing over ourselves before we get sick (if you are not speaking healing scriptures over you and your family, then start doing it EVERYDAY!); likewise, we should speak over our children concerning their learning before the return or go to school. I have some scriptures here (something I usually don’t do because...

The Things We Love

Hello, Hello: Praise the Lord with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind. Praise the Lord! I am so glad that with all this so called “economic hard-times” (I don’t know about you, but only with my eyes will behold and see the reward of the wicked, which means that I am a spectator only not a participator) that I serve a God that supplies all my needs according to His riches (not mine) that I shall not want for anything. He is my only source. I look unto the hills which cometh my help; my help comes from the Lord, the maker of Heaven and Earth. He owns all the cattle on a thousand hills (Ps 50:11); His streets are paved with gold. He has made me and my family more than conquerors in Him through Christ Jesus. There is nothing He can’t and won’t do for me. But this is not what I want to talk about………… I want to talk about how we put forth a good effort and a lot of time for the things we truly love, the things we deem important. I was doing a learning activity...

Hell is Hot - And I Don't Want To Go!

Hello All: I know you all are reading this title and are thinking where is she going with this. Well I know none of you need reminding that there is a hell, and I know that you are doing all you know to do in Christ Jesus to make it to Heaven, but please read on……………. We as Christians know that there is a Heaven and a Hell; and one day, whether you pass on or you’re around for the rapture, you’re going to one of the two (2) places; and no you don’t get to tour each to see which one you would like to spend eternity – you make the choice. Only you can get you to Heaven or to Hell; no one can pray you into Heaven. You have to make the choice to accept Jesus as Lord, and He will become your Savior. The Word of God tells us that life and death has been set before us – blessing and cursing. (Hint: choose LIFE). There are a few things that could or rather should motivate you to live your life for Christ so that you may go to be with Him in Heaven. And yes, Christ is the ONLY WAY! Anywho, some...

Christian's Don't Get A Day Off!!!

Hello All: I know that you all are blessed of the Lord and cannot be cursed. Keep standing firm on the Word of God and see the Salvation of the Lord. I thank God that He is ever ready to listen to us, guide, deliver, and protect us. God has never taken any time off; He doesn’t slumber nor does He sleeps. Being a mother of two (2) means that I don’t get a day off from being mommy, but my husband is there to lend a helping hand, relieving me now and then; but every day, all day, I’m mommy! I can’t wake up and say ‘I think I’ll just be Shan today; no mommy duties for me today’. The same is true about the Christian. You can’t be a Christian one day, and the next you’re living the way the world does. If you’re doing that, then chances are you are “lukewarm”; in which case, God is going to spit you out of His mouth (not my words, but God’s – harsh). Christians don’t get a day off. Every morning you wake up, you make a choice to be Christ-like; you know, a Christian. You live at peace with ev...
