In case you haven\u2019t noticed, God is in the process …\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tread more\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"What's\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tWhat’s in a Name<\/a>\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLet me give you something to think about.  Have you ever considered the meaning of your name?  Your name may just reveal your purpose; your destiny or at the very least, how God sees you. In Revelation 2:17 the overcomers in Pergamum were given some of the hidden manna and a white stone with a new name inscribed on it.  This name, no one would know except the one who received it.  Why is this white stone so important?  Because the name inscribed on that stone denotes the meaning of the receiver\u2019s life\u2026their destiny.  Are you an overcomer?  Are you a victor?  If so, you have such a stone; you have a new name with your destiny inscribed on it.  …\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tread more\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tMaking a Declaration of Faith<\/a>\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat you think is vital to your success. This is how it works: What you focus on over time, eventually you will believe. What you believe is what you will expect and what you expect is what will manifest in your life. Most people don’t have proper control of their thoughts. Their thoughts are dictated by others including parents, teachers, friends, media, and Hollywood. What do you want in life? Are you moving in the direction of your desires or just living a life of reaction to others opinions? The only way you are going to have the life of your dreams is to DECIDE to take control of your thoughts. Along with what you think and the way you …\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tread more\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tThe Clash of Kingdoms<\/a>\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tScience, philosophy, the new age movement, etc. have spent lifetimes to prove God does not exist. Governments have done their best to remove God from their societies. Human government is in competition with God! Because of this lawlessness and mob-rule abound. The focus of our political system today is to wipe God out of everything along with His people. This is the battle…the real battle. WE ARE IN THEIR WAY! Light verses darkness, righteousness verses lawlessness, good verses evil. Even religion in on the bandwagon by dismantling certain truths in God\u2019s Word. Our warfare is not against flesh and blood. Faith-filled believers are the only ones that can stop this chaos from consuming our society and the earth.

Jesus first responded by saying, \u201cWhy do you call me good?\u00a0 No one is good except God!\u201d\u00a0 From the very beginning of teaching this young man, Jesus pointed him to God\u2026the only One who is good.\u00a0 This is an important point.\u00a0 Jesus, as a man, knew who alone was good.\u00a0 God is the Source …\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tread more\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

Later on, in Matthew 18:19, Jesus told the disciples, \u201cTruly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will have been loosed in …\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tread more\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

That afternoon God came looking for them.\u00a0 When God called out to them, they responded by saying that they hid themselves because they were naked.\u00a0 God\u2019s response back to them was, \u201cWho told you that you were naked?\u201d God\u2019s question to Adam and Eve caused me to meditate on the whole idea of \u201cWho told you?\u201d\u00a0 I came to realize that we all live lives based upon what we are told.

It took MANY years to discover that God has something more for me than a good existence.  He wanted to demonstrate through me (and you) His surpassing power and grace.  However, for that to happen I had to go deeper, and you will too.
