Of the Kingdom of Light

As the people of God assemble today, may they realize that they are children of the Kingdom of God which is the Kingdom of Light and that there is nothing working in darkness that can defeat the unshakeable Kingdom of God. May they rejoice as those who walk in the Light and fellowship of King Jesus.  ”Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, and offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship with reverence and awe;” (Heb.12:8, Amp)

Intense Exertion

In spite of the angle of descent of morals and values, in spite of what the world money market looks like, in spite of what the state of the union looks like, we stand on the brink of a destiny that our forefathers never imagined (Jer.33:3)—But it will require moving from being waiters and observers to acting. It will require shifting, modifications, transitions and intense exertion:  the “violent” action of Matt.11:12 which means “intense exertion.” It is not violent in the sense of doing persons harm but in the sense of putting forth effort (i.e., intense exertion) in opposition to things that oppose purpose. We must oppose darkness like opposing a rattlesnake trying to crawl up in our bed. We must do it for our King and for a generation.

God Guards His Purpose

It takes faith to realize that our purpose is essential in the plans of God.  If we try to measure the success of our lives, we step out of the protection of faith and trust in the Lord.  God has the Grace we need to fulfill what we were born to do!  So, let’s just do it.  And may we never stop just because we can’t see its effect or success.  Don’t stop being faithful daily just because you feel you can accomplish little or nothing.  The purpose and plans of God will out last your weaknesses and mistakes and disappointments.  Don’t stop because you are tired.  Lean into His rest.  Don’t stop because you are discouraged.  Lean into His courage.  God is faithful to guard His purpose in us because His purpose is bigger than us.  (Twelfth excerpt from Kathy’s article “Positioned for Purpose”.)

Whose Way?

It has often been said, “I don’t like that, we don’t do it that way where I come from,” indicating a determination not to accept or take part in whatever “it” is.  That statement has also been made in reference to various forms of worship which different groups have practiced in worship services. We must admit, we can’t go wrong by sticking with Scripture.  Perhaps the finest testimony concerning Israel is found in Exodus 39:43 “…they had done it just as the Lord had commanded.”  The first point of realization for the worshipper here is to realize that the worshiper is not the focal point in worship… God is.  The second point of realization that would greatly add to our worship is that we are to be responsive to what GOD WANTS.  It may be that form that we have rejected or it may be some act that we have yet to discover in the Scriptures.

Is Walking in Purpose Easy?

Is walking in God-ordained purpose easy?  No, every biography of a known person in the Bible is far from easy.  However, if God be for us, What or Who can be against us? Can age deteriorate purpose? Can circumstances nullify purpose?  The enemy hopes you will think so. He hopes we will believe we are too weak, too old, too flawed or too unworthy to even have purpose.  The enemy cannot defeat your purpose nor keep God from positioning you in history, he can only hope you will climb off your horse and quit! (Eleventh excerpt from Kathy’s article “Positioned for Purpose”.)

May Your Song Testify

It is possible for one who is in physical bonds to rejoice as one without bonds.  Paul and Silas did that at a very dreary hour. Not only were they lifted in their spirits and delivered but “the other prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, AND EVERYBODY’S CHAINS CAME LOOSE.” (Acts 16:25-26) May our song, may words and the sounds of our lives testify of us that we knew our God as MIGHTY TO SAVE!

Each Thread of our Life Brings Dimension

Did you think you were born to just live, then die?  Our God, who knows the end of everything before it begins has interwoven our lives in the tapestry of his plans for mankind.  Each thread brings color and dimension to the big picture.  If we think our life span is just about us, we live in danger of being robbed of destiny.  (Tenth excerpt from Kathy’s article “Positioned for Purpose”.)

Stirred for the Nations

As the people of God assemble today, may their hearts be stirred for the nations so that they give workers, money, time and effort for inroads to be built to reach them with the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.  “Then He said to them, ‘The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.’” (Lk.10:2, NKJV)

May You Have Healthy Blood

May your blood-sugar come to proper levels and may all your organs and limbs receive the properly oxygenated blood they need for long and strong life.  “My power will be fresh every day, and the bow in my hand will remain new.” (Job 29:20, GW)
