You Are Called


You are called for a purpose! Surely it is nothing new to you! It is something you have heard for the um-teen time. So why am I wasting my time telling you this? Simply because I want you to not just know it but believe it until you see the full manifestation of your purpose. As the apostle Paul said in his letter to the Philippians "...for me to write the same things to you is not tedious, but for you it is safe." Philippians 3:1.

So bear with me a moment as I take the time to exhort you once more that you are called for a purpose. Because you are called for a purpose everything will work out for you. But in order for you to fulfill that purpose you must remain connected. 

The Bible declares that God has called us out of darkness into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9).  He has called you. He wants you to no longer live in darkness, Romans 12:2 declare that you are not to conform to the ways of the world but to be transformed by the renewing of your mind. You are called for a purpose; however, a mind set in the ways of the world cannot accomplish the things of God.

He called you, so you must know what He is saying about the calling He has placed on your life. The only way to know what He has called you to is to stay connected to Him. Stay connected to the source of your purpose in Whom all things lie and you will manifest the impossible in your life. You are called for a purpose!

DON'T WAKE THE BEAST!

                My mom had a way of conveying here wisdom in such a way that would make you laugh and think at the same time.  When things weren't going well or she heard of a problem between two people she would often say; "When you find your head in a lion's mouth take your time and draw it out." What she meant was that a lion is a fierce beast, but when he is sleeping he is harmless as a dove. If you are having problem with someone don't get angry and stir anger in the person because you might not be able to escape the fierceness of his or her wrath. Next time you find yourself in a dispute with someone and feel the need to get angry, remember not to wake the beast. It is best to keep calm and walk away than to wake the lion within the person and get devoured.  Proverbs 15:1 - A soft answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger.

ENDURE TO THE END Scripture Reading Ecclesiastes Chapter 9 2012 has been an interesting year, 2013 will be even a more interesting one.  It is always easy to begin something new with zeal and passion but when situations arise it becomes hard to endure.  Many times we face unexpected problems and because we don’t know how to deal with them we give up and loose hope.     Nonetheless, it will be a prosperous year for those who can endure to the end. The race is not for the swift nor the battle for the strong,  Ecclesiastes 9:11 .  As believers we will suffer many things for the sake of the Gospel. Men will revile us and persecute us without a cause.  It is the plan of the enemy to hold us captive and cause us to lose sight of the future that God has prepared for us. He will do everything to destroy us.  One of his most effective tool since creation has been deception.  In  Genesis 3:1-7 ; it was Satan’s ability to make ...

RECLAIMING OUR COMMUNITY I wrote this article over five years ago and I believe revisiting it is appropriate in light of what we are facing these days. When we think about the condition of our communities; we need to understand we are not just fighting against guns and gang violence, but against spiritual wickedness in high places.  In order to reclaim our community we must first recognize the source of the problem, confront the problem, and then conquer the problem. Recognize—Confront—Conquer THE WAR AGAINST VIOLENCE This war against violence is not just a physical one; it is also a spiritual war.  In the physical realm we need to bond together and say no longer will we allow the violence to take over our community. It will take everyone corporation. On the spiritual aspect of the war we need to understand that our fight is not against the gang members but against the spirit of murder that is driving our young people (friends & family) to violence....
