Know Your Worth!

-
It is so very important that we know who and whose we are in Christ! This knowing will prevent us for succumbing to the Devil's taunts and temptations. 


In the wilderness, Satan taunts Jesus with this recurring phrase, "IF You are the Son of God..." [Read: Matthew 4:1-11]. The conjunction, "if" was used deliberately for two purposes: 1) to produce doubt in Jesus' mind as to who He really was. 2) to cause Jesus to try and prove His worth by doing the things the enemy wanted Him to do, thereby succumbing to the temptation. BUT Jesus, understanding Who He was said in essence, "there are no "IF"s about it...I don't have anything to prove...I AM the Son of God".

Are you in the "wilderness"? In a place where resources are limited, problems seem to proliferate, and temptations abound? Your dreams don't seem to be coming to pass? Don't try to take matters into your own hands. Don't try to solve you problems the way the enemy wants you to. Do "it", whatever it is, God's way. Remember who and Whose you are in Christ. Like Jesus, respond to the enemy of your soul's taunts with the Word of God, and who God says you are: You are a child of the Most High God! You are blessed and you cannot be cursed! You are strong in the Lord and in the power of His might! You are a triple A (AAA) person [Anointed, Appointed, and Approved]! You don't have to prove your worth to anybody, including the enemy.

Know who and Whose you are in Christ. Be confident in your ability IN Jesus Christ! When you do, you will be able to rise up in the face of adversity and defeat! You will be able to go through your "wilderness" experience and come out "without the smell of smoke" (Daniel 3:27), and you will be able to fulfill your calling and destiny before leaving this earth!

Are We There Yet? Part 1

  There are times as Christians, and as humans for that matter, it seems like we're constantly playing the waiting game. Waiting for dreams to come to pass; Waiting for Mr or Mrs Right; Waiting to have children; Waiting for children to grow up and leave the nest; Waiting to get a job...the list goes on and on. You'd think by now we would have mastered the art of waiting but our lack of patience is evident in our everyday lives, from microwaveable foods to drive-thrus. In fact, this generation has been often called the "microwave" generation. We want everything now, now, NOW! We rush into things like relationships, business deals, etc because waiting doesn't seem to be in our vocabulary. It seems we are rushing to get nowhere fast! As Christians though, we are encouraged to master the art of waiting. Now waiting can paint the picture of passivity, but that's not the case. Waiting on God is actually spiritual warfare; It is actively and confidently expecting G

HE KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE

There are some times we go through life and we feel very lonely. The weight of our circumstances seem almost too much to bear. It seems like we are in the thick of the storm, and nobody knows where we are or what we are going through...nobody seems to understand. Boy have I been there! I was in a new place, with new people and I felt extremely lonely. Things I had thought would work out didn't seem to be working out. Plans I had made seemed to be crumbling all around me, and nobody really understood what I was going through. My very existence seemed questionable and at one point I wondered if anybody would care whether I was alive or dead. I cried out to God, and He didn't seem to care either. No response. No joy. No peace. Lots of tears. Then one day, I decided that to seek God out by looking for a new church. I'd been going to another church with the people I was living with at that time but I couldn't seem to hear the Voice of God. So, I decided to look for another

The Voltron Effect

So...The Voltron Effect...a curious topic, huh? "What is Volton?", some of you might be wondering. Yet some of you already know what or who I'm referring to. Voltron is a cool superhero from the popular 80's animation series,  "Voltron: Defender Of The Universe" . I loved this animation growing up, and I must admit, I still love it (I guess the child in me is still very much alive...LOL!). I loved everything about this animation, but one of the most exciting parts was the formation of Voltron. This short video clip should give you a glimpse of what I am talking about (It's about 1 minute so please bear with me): Now that's very cool, isn't it? Five ordinary kids coming together and becoming one powerful defender of the universe. This reminds me of what the Body Of Christ looks like when it is unified. The fight for unity in the Body of Christ has been one frought with much difficulty. Why is that? Why is there so much division i
