It's what God says that matters

"... What you say about yourself means nothing in God's work.  It's what God says about you that makes the difference."

-2 Corinthians, 10:15-18 MSG

If you want to boast

Rise up!

“I’m sending you off to open the eyes of the outsiders so they can see the difference between dark and light, and choose light, see the difference between Satan and God, and choose God…” Acts 26:17-18 MSG

If you are reading this, there is a reason:  You are called, by God, to be a difference maker; to help him shed light in the darkness – a dark world, a dark soul; to help him repair the hearts of the broken hearted; to help bring the lost to him.  Yes, you ARE called!!

Therefore, rise up and decide to help - today and forevermore!  You are his child, you are gifted, you are anointed, you shine with his glory, and you have been given the favor; you are God’s hands and feet! Now go out and be amazing for others!

Help God help the world!!

God or Man? Which do you choose?

“… They were afraid of getting kicked out of the meeting place.  When push came to shove the cared more for human approval than for God’s glory.”  John 12:42-43 MSG

God or Man?  Which do you choose? 

Although a hard question to answer, too many of us are guilty of backing down to man when we are fearful of losing our positions, power, favor, abundance, etc... we settle on giving in to man, and turning our backs on God.  Well, it’s due time that we stand up and stop being afraid; it is time we stand up and be the bold children of God we were born to be!  My friends, you and I are God’s children, we are made to soar, made to be great, so let's step out of the world and do so!!
CHOOSE GOD OVER EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING ELSE

Be a difference maker for good,not evil

"Remind people to be submissive to [their] magistrates and authorities, to be obedient, to be prepared and willing to do any upright and honorable work, To slander or abuse or speak evil of no one, to avoid being contentious, to be forbearing (yielding, gentle, and conciliatory), and to show unqualified courtesy toward everybody."  Titus 3:1-2 AMPC

Friend, take these words as my reminder to you.  For me, as I read them today, I realized I've been falling short, and I ask, with all sincerity, for the forgiveness of God.  So, if you, like me, have been falling short, repent and begin anew; let's be difference makers for good and not for evil.

We are all equal in Christ.

"And He made no difference between us and them, but cleansed their hearts by faith (by a strong and welcome conviction that Jesus is the Messiah, through Whom we obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom of God)." Acts 15:9 AMP

POINT TO REMEMBER:  You are no better than another, and another is no better than you.  Therefore, stop comparing, judging, condemning, gossiping, complaining, and belittling ~ we are all one in Christ.

Be a light for God

“… and those who turn many to righteousness (to uprightness and right standing with God) [shall give forth light] like the stars forever and ever.” Daniel 12:3 AMP

Live your life in a way that when others look at you, they see, feel, or sense a difference about you; a light about you, a warmth about you!! Yes, open your heart and life to God, and let Him take over.  Let Him take your life and turn it into a shining light for the world to see.

Gosh, our world is so filled with darkness and fear!  So, be different! Be God’s loving child and help change someone’s life today.
