Are we #drinking the #contaminated #issues of this #world that #leaves us #dry and #thirsty?

O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you; as in a dry and weary land where there is no answer. (Psalms 63:1)

If a person walks in the desert of life, how do we maintain our thirst? Have we been drinking unfiltered water? Have we considered the purification that Christ provides in the dry and unfruitful land? Desperation and despair will resort to any means of survival. Today, I challenge you to seek Christ, so that your internal land which is your soul, never becomes thirsty. 

If the #power and #authority is there to #make it #easy, why should one #imagine it #being #hard?

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for me?                   (Jeremiah 32:27)

Why wrestle with the challenge if the challenge is not yours to begin with. If a defeat seems evident, it needs to be handed over to a stronger candidate. Have we thought of the outcome in a winning mindset? Does our defeated thought outweigh the strength of God? If we say no, then why do we contend with it? For if God, is the true contender of all mankind, then why step in the ring of doubt and defeat? There can only be one winner and one loser. There are no tie breakers in the the Kingdom of God, only winners. Through salvation, victory is already won and we are truly redeemed. Today, I challenge you to see your victory greater than your expectation.

#Continue to #wear the #belt of #righteousness to #hold up our #soul…

Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.( Isaiah 11:5)

What happens to our belt of righteousness when we do not wear it? Does it fall to the ground in the same regard as our pants? Have we replaced it with another type of belt? If so, does it sustain or hold us together completely? When righteousness prevails, all else is deleted. Today, I challenge you to go right with righteousness and leave unrighteousness. 

Do we #inhale and #breathe #joy if it is #present in the #atmosphere?…

Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy are in his dwelling place.    (1 Chronicles 16:27)

Have we entered the resting place of joy and peace? Are we constantly wrestling with the inconsistencies of our own efforts? Do we know the true divine meaning of peace in Christ Jesus? Today, I challenge you to embrace, remain and position yourself in the everlasting place of absolute joy in Christ.

When a #new #thing is being #produced, what #happens to the #old?…

Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:19)

When a new thing is being presented, do we see it as Christ does? Where does the old stand if the new is here? Do we continue to contemplate on what could or could not be? If it is written and confirmed by Christ, we will see it more clearer when it is revealed. Allow your faith to make sense of the reality that Christ has predestined for our lives. When it springs like a fruit in season, it will be ripe and ready to eat. The miracle is and has been prepared for now. Grab, see and hold on to it with warm embrace. Today, I challenge you to be in position, so that we are spiritually transported into our divine plan that he has for us. 

A #foe #stands on #you and a #friend #stands by #you…

And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness -and he was called a friend of God.(James 2:23)

When God stands by us, his shadow covers the enemy completely. The enemy is not our friend unless we give it permission. Sometimes if we are not careful, our faith can be distorted and we become deceived by the entrapment. False hope and false vision will blind the hearts and minds of our spirit, only if we permit it. When we we fully believe and trust in God for all things, He will stick by us so we can become one in the spirit. However, righteousness of God will not be considered when we are contrary to his will and lack of faith. Today, I challenge you to challenge your own ability to maintain your belief no matter what. 

If we #conform to the #ways of this #present #age, what #room is #left for us to allow #transformation?…

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2) 

How do we determine what is good and acceptable unto God? What ways have we embraced and nurtured that we cannot delete from our lives? Have we accustomed our ways to this world so much, as to disregard our kingdom mentally? What have we accomplished by doing so if that is the case? What value is there by meditating on the ways of the world and not the Lord? Have we considered what it would be like to continually have our whole mind and heart set on things above only? When we decide to completely condition our mindset on God, it changes the atmosphere around us. It develops our relationship with Him and allows us to tap into the heavenly realm. Today, I challenge you to renew your spiritual subscription in the Kindgom.

When our #soul #prospers, all else #follows…

Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. (3 John 2:2)

Remain in the mindset of prosperity for mind, body and soul as it relates to Christ. Today, I challenge you to set your focus  on the good health that Christ has sealed with the Father. 

When we #indulge, we #become #part of the #indulgence that the  #Lord has #set #before us…

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalms 37:4)

As we embark on a new journey, we can safely say that it’s from our anticipation. However, what happens when we do not see the desire present? Does it mean that our heart has abandoned the yearning? If we present our needs and desires to the Lord, can we truly see outcome? How many times does it take for one to realize that the promise and delight has already been foretold? Today, I challenge you to see the desire as it was given beforehand.
