Food For Thought – Consistency

“But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” -Psalms 1:2-3 (KJV) Consistency is the key in everything in life. We must practice consistently if we want to excel in sports,…

The Art of War

“In war, then, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.” Sun Tzu (THE ART OF WAR)   This quote is from a classic book on combat strategy written in the 5th Cen. B.C. by the Chinese teacher Sun Tzu.   Clearly, Satan is into lengthy campaigns.  He nags, lies, waits, and harasses pretty much 24/7.  Even if your life is blessed beyond measure, he will tell you, this can’t last.  He’s a vicious…

Minding Your Own Business

Have you ever been praying and glorying God and suddenly you are bombarded with judgmental thoughts about others? Well that happened to me; I found myself entertaining these thoughts.  Realizing what I was doing, I immediately stopped and said, “Wait, this is none of my business!” As soon as I said it, I sensed an air of freedom, and recalled 1 Thessalonians 4:11 , “study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and…

Single-Minded in Christ

As a new year begins, it is common to make new year resolutions and/or set goals to accomplish. Most times these goals are career or financially motivated to put us in a better position than we were last year. Goal setting is great! As it says in Habakkuk 2:2 ,“Write a plan and make it clear,” but let’s not lose focus of what our ultimate goal should be. In Philippians 3:14 Paul says,  “I press…

Abraham’s Faith in God

In Genesis 12: 1-4, God tells Abram to leave his country, his family and his father’s house to go into a land that God would show him.   By faith, Abram packed up and follow God’s directions.  Keep in mind, when he moved, he had a wife, servants, cattle and household goods.  He couldn’t call a moving service for help, it was a huge undertaking. When God told Abram to move He also made eight promises…

Move Forward in The Lord

The term “Move forward” simply means to keep going, not turning back, and not standing still. Sometimes in life we do not realize that we may have done the latter two because time consistently moves, but we have not for various reasons. In Philippians 3 Paul discusses the worldly accomplishments of his past, he was a man that was esteemed highly. However, after his encounter with Christ, he considered those things which gave him prestige…

Patience For Omnipotence

As Jonah found out when he attempted to flee from the presence of…
