NOT DONE YET

It is written, "Better is the END of a thing than the beginning thereof..."(Eccl.7:8a) Explicitly it's not how we START off in life, it's how we FINISH. There is a prophetic saying, "I'm somewhere in the future, and I look MUCH BETTER than I look right now."(Prophet Kim Clement) We fail to realize that 'God is not thru with us yet'! What we see with our natural eyes (in the NOW) is totally 'temporal'. . .temporary, incomplete, not finished, still in the making. No need to get bent out of shape, become overwhelmed, grow impatient with God or yourself, fall into comparisons which breed jealousy, envy, competition, to name a few. It's not how FAST we run this race, it's power to the man who sticks it out to the very END of the race! By the way, there IS such a thing as a "payday"; it's coming in your afterwhile. We shall reap a harvest of blessings (in due season) when the time comes, if we faint NOT. This is NOT the time to be quitting, changing horses in mid-stream, even backsliding. Comparing your life against TIME here on earth is erroneous, because God IS TIME. He invented it for us because there are some things (really rather alot) that we need to "WALK OUT". . . So take heed that we forget not the things He has promised us, and getting off focus is NOT an option. Let's remember for the sake of our sanity and peace, that God's not thru with us yet. We're going somewhere. Go on, ALL THE WAY to your finish! You're somewhere in the future, and you look MUCH BETTER than you look right now!

YOUR TIMES

Instead of allowing the cares of this life overwhelm us, we can boldly rest assured in knowing that our "times" are in GOD's hands. (Psa. 31:15) Everything about us; our personal desires, our bodies, our children, our health, our careers, our finances, man, He orchestrates ALL our timings and our seasons, our testings, our promotions, our downtimes, difficult moments and more! No time need be spent babysitting problems or sweating over bills when we can confidently know that GOD is GREATER than any one thing in our lives! We were simply created to spend our time 'praising' Him. The safest place we can be is in His Will. Let's breathe in/out a bit better now that we know our "times" are especially in His hands.

OF YOUR TIMES

So many times we wonder, "What about ME??" The turnaround is that our very times, seasons, even our lives are in "God's Hands". Everything about us, especially if you're a believer, rests safely in God's hands. Trials, challenges, testings, promotions, changes, are nestled right in the safest place, the 'Will of God'. This is what gives us our confidence that thru the ups and downs of life, we have a Father who is so sovereign, that we don't have to stress out of here like that. I want to encourage us ALL as His people to rely on the fact that everything about us, our families, our careers, our desires, even our well-being is orchestrated by the GREATEST ONE of ALL! Who is our Heavenly Father. We can hang everything else on knowing that not only do we have a Father, but that "He CARES".

A CALL-OUT to ALL WARRIORS!

Especially to all Warriors, Intercessors, Dreamers (and anyone else on the 'front line') Now is the time to really, really pay attention to the signs of the times all around you. Keep your spiritual eyes open, always but always cover yourself and those connected to you. This is NOT the time to slack off. There has been a shifting in our position, but we (the Body) must, MUST remain committed, walking in a "spirit of excellence", in private AND public. (In church, out of church, everywhere!) AND obedience. Integrity and accountability are a MUST at this point if we are to remain the 'wise fishermen' we are called to be. Afterall, GOD gets ALL the glory anyway, huh? Holla back if you need a definite one-on-one with me. Remember: We're on the SAME TEAM! Gotchaback.

PURSUE!

GO ALL OUT!

Things of beauty, value, worth, and importance are all solely in the eyes of the beholder. What one man holds to be of importance may not be held equally in the eyes and mind of another. Whatever God has given you, bestowed upon you, rewarded you with, graced you with, never let another count it as a loss. Usurping the time wisely, run with the dreams, thoughts, visions, and ideas God has given you. By any and all means PURSUE!
