Wake Up Child It's Your turn to Shine!

Take care of what has been entrusted to you.  That is called stewardship.  The scripture says, “When someone has been given much, much will be required in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required.“ (Luke 12:48 NLT)

In our country, we have the unique privilege and honor of governing ourselves.  We can only do that if our hearts and minds are governed by Holy Spirit.  Father God sent us Holy Spirit to teach us His ways.  He lives in each believer enabling us with supernatural power and confidence.

The deception that a believer should not be involved in the political arena of this world leads men into depravity without light to guide them.  You are the light of the world.  We should be involved in every area of influence that helps to shape the culture. 

The world wants to be like USA.  They have considered us the greatest nation on earth.  Why are we so great?  Because for years, godly men yielded their hearts to the Almighty God to lead their footsteps and create laws that protect and lead to life.

The world is hostile to God’s ways.  They will not yield until they get the revelation of His love.  That is our number one priority here.  However, that purpose does not nullify our purpose of showing this world the path of life.  It includes it.

“Wake up child it is your turn to shine you were born for such a time as this.”  Spread the word that the believer must not ever retreat.  Instead, we should be strong and full of love and courage yielded to Holy Spirit’s leading.  Do what you can to support those who are taking the stand in areas of influence.  We will be hated by some but more importantly, we will be who we were created to be.

G3 = Give God Glory!

This season Jesus is amply proclaimed throughout the land as the Son of God and Savior of the world.  Today the cross and the resurrection confront our daily lives promising more than the routine! 

“My old self has been crucified with Christ.  It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” (Gal 2:20 NLT) 

Some are bewildered by the message of the cross. Their hearts are blinded through a veil by the god of this world. Psychology jogs around the ego of man that selfishly lives for himself.  The unbeliever is unable to be free in his strength to be who God created him to be.  But the cross has put an end to that!

The “I” has been crucified.  Today we can live as the Author of Life and One who called you before you were born intended.  We live with purpose! A lifeline has been extended to you.  Every day you choose to take hold of it by answering the question: Who am I going to live for today?

The right answer is in Gal 2:20.  G3!  All day long trusting in the Son of God who loves you and gave Himself up for you!  It is the only way to really live!

How many prayers are enough?

God hears you... every time.

Just one man is enough. You do not have to have an army of saints to pray for you. (It is good to have them agreeing with you though. The saints are powerful and each one has Father's ear to His heart.)

It just took one man to pray for rain in the Old Covenant and God sent it:

"The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years! Then, when he prayed again, the sky sent down rain and the earth began to yield its crops." (James 5:16b-18 NLT)

But you have a better covenant with better promises!  He is not just with you and for you but God is IN you!

Saint/Believer, you are righteous through JESUS! Not by your own behavior or obedience. (Obedience is now done not out of fear for punishment but out of love! The result is greater revelation of Jesus and life in Him, which is really the only true life. You are righteous even on your worst day, because you received His finished work.)

The lone solitary prayer of a child of God is enough for Abba to hear. His Kingdom is in you and when you pray you release His will as you speak. His Kingdom come! His Will be done! On earth as it is in heaven. (It is all good in heaven)

Make your petitions in confidence and thanksgiving. Praise God the answer is here and being manifested in the secret places!

He loves it when you ask in faith.

Don't give up, keep going.

"For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their prayer, ..." 1 Peter 3:12a (New International Version)

fighting fire with a bigger fire.

The flow of God's Word in your life creates resistance to the attacks of the world, the flesh and the devil. That resistance must be greater than the attack. The attack always produces fear. The Word always produces peace and joy. If your mind is riddled with fear you know you need to meditate on Father and His Word more.

Sometimes it is impractical to quietly meditate on His Word. Thank God for the ability to quietly pray in the Spirit anytime, anywhere. Thank God for the power of confession that changes the atmosphere of your home from focused on life's storms to being focused on life and life in abundance. Thank God for the ability to turn on praise and worship music while you are involved in life's tasks.

As you do these things you are establishing your heart in Him and His ways of doing things. You are in the vine and producing much fruit and lasting fruit! Producing a life of peace and joy in your home all for Father's glory!

Have a great day! There is no other way to live when you know these things!

Praise God!

It is so hot! I am so thirsty

The summer of 2011 has been a valuable time in the Kingdom. Every day we have been given opportunity to grow. What are you doing with that open door?

The Father’s House is moving forward. We are moving upward in worship. The Magnify the Most High events planned this summer are more than sing-a-longs. They are opportunities afforded to us to prepare for an eternity of worship and adoration. When we gather to sing and worship we are brought into unity of heart. When the church is in unity look out! The Power is on!

“Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul…they had all things in common. And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all. (See Acts 4:32&33 NLT)

As TFH understands and values the opportunities with participation we walk through the door of more. It is good to be thirsty… and better to be satisfied.

Let’s pack the house for these next two Magnify the Most High events. Come to declare Who He is to you and be brought into unity to experience all He has for us at TFH.
