Liberated From Your Past
“Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43;18-19 NASB The key word is ponder, which keeps fouling us up. It means to keep talking about and dwelling on something. Perhaps a former spouse, a former boss or employee, or a parent hurt you. Some of you will never see the destiny that God has for you because you’re stuck in your past and most likely bitter....

“So let’s not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up or quit.” Galatians 6:9 Message Bible Life has its challenges, its obstacles, and roadblocks. You have a choice to make: you can either stay the course or you can wander from one thing to the next and give up. I believe God challenges us to have staying power and that is going to require an attitude of determination. Determination is what keeps you persevering through all the roadblocks and the ups and downs you face. It...

“Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.“ I Corinthians 9:24 NASB Many folks know how to start but few know how to finish. Who will make that last exerted effort to push with all you’ve got to be a winner? If you watched the 2008 Olympics you probably paid some attention to the amazing Michael Phelps. As the 100m butterfly was nearing the finish line in his quest for his seventh gold medal in the 100 meter, each swimmer was giving it their all. Michael Phelps...

“Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before obscure men.” Proverbs 22:29 NASB Excellence is really about perspective. So often we focus only on the big picture thus forgetting all of the little things. It takes the details to achieve the big picture. Focus your attention on excelling in the details and you will succeed in the big things. It’s been said, “Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to everyday things nearest to us...

“Bearing graciously with one another, and willingly forgiving each other if one has a cause for complaint against another; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so should you forgive.” Colossians 3:13 Amplified Think about what harboring a hurt does to your spirit. It steals most of the joy from your life. It robs you of a lot of peace. It minimizes your ability to be patient with others. It turns your kindness into something prejudiced and selective. It stains all the goodness in you. It has been said, “Unforgiveness warps...

“He changes a wilderness into a pool of water and a dry land into springs of water; and there He makes the hungry to dwell, so that they may establish an inhabited city, and sow fields and plant vineyards, and gather a fruitful harvest. Also, He blesses them and they multiply greatly, and He does not let their cattle decrease.” Psalm 107:35-38 NASB What’s going on in your life right now? Some of you may be going through some stuff or you just recently weathered a storm. What are you to do? First of all, God has created everything. There...

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 NKJV Pay careful attention to how you start your day. Within the context of this verse, if Jesus will care for the lilies of the field and the birds of the air, how much more will He care for you? How many times have you awakened in the morning, stepped into the shower, and begun to rehearse the day, focusing on all the problems that you had the day before? Many of us pay no attention to Jesus who is saying, “Listen, I’ve...

“But as for you, be strong and courageous, for your work will be rewarded.” 2 Chronicles 15:7 NLT It has been said, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”And Benjamin Mayes said, “It is not a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled but it is a calamity not to dream.” The world is filled with dream crushers and idea killers. Why? Some people without dreams of their own hate to see others pursuing theirs. Or others have told you that’s a dumb idea or it will never work. Or you failed in the...

“Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.
