The Miracle Question

-

The question begins with:
Suppose you went to bed tonight and while you were sleeping a miracle happened and you woke up and you didn't know that a miracle happened but things were different. All the problems that you had the day before are now gone. What would be some things that you notice are different? With your relationships? Job? Friends? Family? Finances? You fill in the blank. Use your imagination! (SFBT, de Shazer, S., Berg, K.)

Think of it this way; what do you want in life? I like this question because it helps us to think about our dreams, goals, and problems in a different way and it challenges us to stop just existing in life, but to move forward with a purpose.

Then focus is on what is working in your life and do more of these things.

Miracles happen everyday- God turns sorrow into joy, despair into hope, war into peace, hate into love, Psalm 147:3 says; "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." (NIV)He does! What ever place that your in God works and moves in your favor!


God says that it is impossible to please Him without faith; Hebrews 11:6 "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." Did you hear that? He rewards those who seek him and when we move forward with faith we please him! In our humanness we can do nothing but with God anything is possible.
Matthew 19:26; But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (NKJV)



Think of all those things that God has already done in your life. God loves you!
 
What is one small step of faith that you can take today to get those things in your life that God wants to redeem?  
 
Blessings friends.

Conspiracy?

Conspiracy? Wait! Stop, I know the mention of a conspiracy sends our walls up and our eyes rolling. The truth is that conspiracy is mentioned in the Word of God. But our Culture has turned this concept into a dirty little word. Culture doesn't want you to believe the devil is real and he is working now, today, in our lives and the body of Christ. Lets look at a couple of examples; Ester 3:1 -Haman’s Conspiracy Against the Jews Psalm 83:1 -Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel Nehemiah 1 -Conspiracy Against Nehemiah These are just a few examples but lets look at this passage regarding Paul the apostle; Acts 23:12-14 (NKJV) "And when it was day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. Now there were more than forty who had formed this conspiracy." *By providence a relative overheard the plan and told Paul and so Paul was able to escape the clutches of the ...

Gods enduring love

-
I came across this today written from Oswald Chambers; "When we realize that Jesus Christ has served us to the end of our meanness, our selfishness, and sin, nothing that we meet with from others can exhaust our determination to serve men for His sake." This was a great reminder for me today as I am at my wits end in dealing with my children. I have one that snuck out the window, and another on her phone at three in the morning discussing her drunken exploits. This is heart wrenching for a mother who has continued to try to teach and instruct in the ways of Christ, but sometimes it seems, to no avail. I felt myself getting angry and having a feeling of distaste toward my daughters but then after reading this sentence I realized that Christ loved me at my most ugly point. He heard my cry and lifted me up out of the miry clay and set my feet upon a rock... and put a new song in my mouth- Praise Him for his forgiveness and long suffering toward me. So I have to learn ...

Jesus- my cheese

-
Just read this great little book about change. This is how the author describes it; "cheese is a metaphor for what you want to have in life whether it is a good job, a loving relationship, money, a possession, health, or spiritual peace of mind. This is a story of four characters who live in a maze and look for the "cheese" to nourish them and make them happy." Spencer Johnson, M.D. Change is difficult because you never know what to expect and it takes some faith that God is going to provide the "cheese." In this book the characters find the cheese and its this huge stash, they like it so much that they move their homes closer to it. They invest their whole lives in this particular cheese. Then one day it runs out. Two of the characters move on to discover more cheese while the other two are left behind. These two "hem" and "haw" are frustrated and angry that the cheese is gone. Hem stews in self pity and resentment while haw decides...
