Our blog articles uncover the pattern for guaranteed success found in scripture. Read the posts below and begin living the successful life you were created for.
Happy Thanksgiving
I have often asked myself how important is being thankful to our Creator and our God, and what does the Manufacturer’s Handbook say about thankfulness? The words 'thank,' 'thanks,' and their variations are used 139 times in the King James Version of the Scriptures. In the New Living Translation they are used 168 times. This is significant!
Overcoming Faith
Do you long to have a powerful faith -- the kind of faith that overcomes the Kingdom of Darkness? The kind of faith that moves mountains? That kind of faith doesn't just happen. It has to be cultivated over time and in constant relationship with our Father. The best way to cultivate this overcoming kind of faith is to activate it daily.
Change Your Environment
Are the outcomes of your life in line with what you are hoping, expecting, and believing? Or are you experiencing a disconnect between the Truth of God's Word and the reality of your life? We have all been through times where life doesn't seem to line up with what we know to be true. In those times, I have found that one of the most important things I can do is change my environment.
Commitment to the Word
I am continuing to share declarations from the book Kingdom Activating Declarations. This particular declaration is foundational to any Kingdom Citizen, because it is through the Word of our God that we truly are able to understand and get to know the character, the love, and the personality of our God.
This Is Who I Am
This week I am sharing another declaration from my collection called Kingdom Activating Declarations. To live your calling as a Kingdom Citizen, you must know and you must creatively declare God‘s Word about yourself. You are who God says you are, not what the Defeated Satan says about you. Declare out loud who God says that you are.
You Have God's Favor
For today's blog, I want to share one of the declarations from the book Kingdom Activating Declarations. It's called "You Have God's Favor." I encourage you to read this declaration out loud, and let it penetrate your spirit as you read it. The power is not in the reading, but the declaring out loud. Delight in the Lord, and in His favor towards you!
The Power of Declaration
The creative power of words is amazing. It has been said that our words are “a self-fulfilling prophecy.” What we say – the words that come out of our mouth – are powerful and they are important. What we allow in our spirit and in our mind determines the words that we speak.
Totally Relational, Part Two
The Kingdom System is totally relational and operates by our correctly engaging the interactive system of Dynamics which contain within them the inertia that leads to the outcomes that He has planned for us, and that we innately desire to achieve. Our choice determines our outcomes: Kingdom or religion, regulation and compliance or Dynamics, time/temporary or eternity/forever.
Totally Relational, Part One
To change from a religious view of life (regulation and compliance) to a relational perspective (fellowship and communion) for the living of our life requires a paradigm shift in how we think, what we believe and how we choose to act.
The Dynamic of Eternity, Part Two
But Eternal Life is defined as life without beginning and without ending. We must understand that we live in that environment now. We experience the reality of eternity now. Where our bodies are mortal and temporary (ashes to ashes) our spirits already are eternal. We will never die. We will not "spend" eternity anywhere. Eternity does not "spend." It is forever. We are eternal beings now.
The Dynamic of Eternity, Part One
We -- all of humanity -- are eternal spirits. We live in a body and we are managed by our minds. The minds that we have programmed. Yet, eternity escapes us. We just do not go there. We do not get it. Eternity is not a factor in most of what we do.
Where Does Success Begin?
The pursuit of success is a lifetime quest. Success and the desire for success are part of our DNA. The desire to be successful is built-in to who we are. Every day the pursuit of success guides our thoughts, our actions and our desires.
