Turns of Life

Turns of Life

Dec 8, 2019 |

Family Leadership Men Personal Development Relationships Women Monday, May 1st 2017 Share the goods! In life, we must learn to make sure that when we are riding a motorcycle in tandem that we lean in the same direction when making turns. Otherwise, we will be thrown off balance. On the straight turns of life (money in the bank, health going well, no job stress), it is easy to ride in the same direction. It is when you have to make the turns that you need cooperation with one another! You have to lean in the same direction at the same time, or you are going to tip over. The reason why Christians are divorcing at record numbers is that they fail to make the turns together. See, it is easy to go through life making the straight drives, but it is the turns in life that require working together. When someone loses a job, when someone gets sick, when they have a child who is acting in a wayward manner, it is then that we must learn to lean in the same direction!!! If a relationship falls apart, it will fall apart in the turns. Very few people have been trained to lean in the turns. It is a couple’s ability to lean in the same direction that will determine whether that relationship flourishes or disintegrates. The turns in life require team work.

When The Light Turns Yellow

When The Light Turns Yellow

Oct 6, 2019 |

Family Leadership Men Personal Development Relationships Women Monday, November 7th 2016 Share the goods! So often we feel the leading of the Holy Spirit particularly with our mouths, but it can be any aspect of our lives. The Holy Spirit will prompt us and tell us that something we are about to do is not going to be good. We might say the Holy Spirit gives us a “yellow light.” The light is yellow and it is about to turn red and so often we say, “I can make it.” If the Holy Spirit gives us a “yellow light” and tells us to slow down then we must learn to listen to Him. This is very important because we must learn to enjoy the restraint of the Holy Spirit as much as we like the “leading” of the Holy Spirit. Click To Tweet When you first learn to drive, the first thing they show you on the car is the brake. This is very important because we must learn to enjoy the restraint of the Holy Spirit as much as we like the “leading” of the Holy Spirit. We have often said that in relationships if a person has a relationship with your “yes” but does not have a relationship with your “no,” then they really do not have a relationship with you at all. The same applies with the Holy Spirit. If we only have a relationship with the “yes” of the Holy Spirit, but we do not have a relationship with the “no,” then we do not have a relationship with the Holy Spirit at all. MORE...
The Falling Spider

The Falling Spider

Jun 16, 2019 |

Family Leadership Men Personal Development Relationships Women Monday, July 4th 2016 Share the goods! When you knock a spider off the wall, she’ll throw out cobwebs while she’s falling, and if you try to knock a spider while she’s falling backward you can’t hurt her because she knows how to break her fall. No matter how you try to knock the spider off balance she continues to spray cobwebs to break her fall. We Christians ought to be like that spider. The spider fights with what she has within herself to break her fall, and is protected by her cobweb. No matter what height she falls from, the spider empties out what God put inside of her, and she survives the adversity of the experience. The goal of the enemy is to make you doubt yourself and what you have in your own “web” inside you. The adversary wants you to believe somebody has something better than you in their web, when in reality God is no respecter of people! If we are born again, we are equipped with God’s power inside us to help us in every situation. God is no respecter of people!

Judge Not Lest You Be Judged

Judge Not Lest You Be Judged

Nov 12, 2017 |

We are like umpires at a baseball game in that we lo ve to call balls and strikes on somebody else. It is kind of like if you ask what time it is you will get a whole bunch of answers; some people set their watches ahead, some people set their watches behind.

Critical Spirit

Critical Spirit

Feb 26, 2017 |

Family Leadership Men Personal Development Relationships Women Monday, February 27th 2017 Share the goods! Critical spirits can be very devastating. Think about Wimbledon. The tennis championships in England where there is a judge who sits on an elevated chair on the side between the two competitors. He has earned the right to be a judge because he has earned the reputation of being fair-minded in his judgments, so when the ball goes out of bounds the judge yells “FAULT!” The person with a critical spirit also sits on a high, elevated seat even though they have not earned the reputation of being fair-minded and they have not been invited. They are not welcomed but they just yell “FAULT!” all day despite the fact that their verdict is not appreciated nor accurate. In a marriage, the husband or wife must make sure that they do not position themselves in an elevated chair of judging their spouse all day long yelling “FAULT!”, “FAULT!”, “FAULT!”. Have we allowed ourselves to have a cynical mindset?
