Daily Walk with the Holy Spirit

Are you ready for ministry?

"Preach the word; be instant in season, and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine." II Timothy 4:2

Lord makes us vessels unto honor.

Fill us with your Holy Spirit and send us out into your harvest fields.

Let Your anointing come upon us as we have never experienced before.

We are a nation adrift, as we are confused by the priorities of life.

We are at the point where we call evil good, and good evil.

How did we get like this?

We have taken God out of schools, out of our lives.

We have gotten to the place where God is "use only as needed".

How sad!

There are many ministers that step behind the pulpit so that can pay their bills.

They might just have head knowledge, know the scriptures, but how many in their congregation actually know God and know about Him?

How many would say that they have an intimate relationship with Him.

Most people who go to church only want to have their ear tickled.

Most people want to feel good.

They go to church to have the pastor lift up their self esteem.

We are to crucify our self and take up His cross, His ways, not ours.

There are pastors out there that are men pleasers and they compromise the Word of God.

They preach for results.

God never once called us to preach for results, but to listen to His voice, to say what He says, how He says it and when He says it.

Our values of late are not built upon the unshakable biblical principles.

The foundation that we have built upon is greed.

How to accumulate wealth at any cost.

We have based our foundation upon man's strength, the sensual appetites, and that of all out rebellion against God.

God has not called us to play church.

He has not called us to please the masses.

We are not to pacify people.

God is looking for those who will stand true to His word.

God is looking for people who don't have to be recognized for their accomplishments.

God is looking for people who do not have to be rewarded for doing good.

God is looking for those who are happy to be in the battle.

God is looking for those who have zero tolerance for those who conduct church as usual.

God is looking into your heart.

What does it say about you?

We all will be held accountable for our choices.

We are to seek the One who saved us.

We are to step out of our comfort zone.

We are to be set apart.

We are to help recover and rebuild those lives that have been devastated, left desolate by Satan.

We are here to be a vehicle that God can use.

We are to let Him flow through us, to be that vessel of honor that will bring glory to God, and glory to all.

I don't know about you, but I want to be able too fulfill that destiny in which God has fro me.

I can't do that if I care about what man's agendas are.

I can't do that if I am out for performance and not what God has called me to do or say.

We need top step out of darkness and into that glorious light.

Lord open our eyes that we may see you more clearly.

"In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and darkness comprehended it not." John 1:4-5

Let's let the light of Jesus show up everywhere we go.

We are here to show the glory of God to all men, and to destroy the works of the enemy.

Lord, teach us to cry out for more of you.

Teach us to flow in Your presence.

Teach us to walk with You more deeply.

Let us have a heart after You.

Lord, let "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." Matthew 6:10
