Only God Brings The Increase

In 1 Corinthians 3:6-7, NKJV, Paul says: 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. When we understand this Truth about The Good News , all the weight of self assumed expectations rolls off our shoulders and lands at the feet of Jesus. Now, while it is important to know and live out The Great Commission found in Matthew 28:19 and Mark 16:15-18 to Go into all the world and preach The Good News to everyone. Knowing that God is the Only One who brings the increase Is crucial in understanding our purpose in His eternal plan. When we till the ground, plant, and water the seed, we are one in doing so. But, we're never the one's who bring the increase. We have Co-Union or Communion with God in these matters to shine bright in a world full of darkness and should always remember all the weight and power to bring the increase belongs to God. All the worship, all t...

How will they know, Unless we Speak and GO?

  Romans 10:14-15, NLT, says, 14 But how can they call on Him to save them unless they believe in Him? And how can they believe in Him if they have never heard about Him? And how can they hear about Him unless someone tells them? 15 And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring Good News!” Remember, It is easier to be confident and trust God when we know He's The One who qualifies us. 2 Corinthians 3:5-6, NLT, says, 5 It is not that we think we are qualified to do anything on our own. Our qualification comes from God. 6 He has enabled us to be ministers of His new covenant. This is a covenant not of written laws, but of The Spirit. The Old written covenant ends in death; but under the New covenant, The Spirit gives life. In Luke 8:39, NLT, Jesus told the man He freed from demons to go home. Saying, 39 “No, go back to your family, and tell them everything God has d...

Don't Wait for a Light or Sign to Shine!

With the understanding that prayer is amazing and God can do anything. Including giving you a sign or shining a light on someone. We must understand the way God designed The Good News to be shared. Sometimes it's so simple, it's complicated. God calls His children to be filled with The Light and become a light that shines and He gives the ability to perform miracles and miraculous signs through us in a world filled with darkness. The great flaw with waiting on a light or sign to shine on someone Before we decide to approach  and  Talk with them is this. You are the light! You are the sign! If we spend all our time praying for God to shine a light on someone or highlight them, then we are missing the point of The Good News . Remember, God so loved the world! That's EVERYONE! The trap with waiting is this. If you spend all day praying where to Go, but never here where to Go, you may never Go. And We're all called to Go! So, as long as there's people wh...

The Word of God is Truth

2 Timothy 3:16-17, NLT, says, 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 17 God uses it to prepare and equip His people to do every Good work. Read Romans Chapter 6, Dead to Sin and Alive to God. Read Galatians 5:16-26, NLT, Walking in The Spirit and not fulfilling the lust of the flesh. Read Colossians 3:1-17, NLT, We are raised to New Life. Called to put to death Sin and Self and live for God. All of this can propel us forward in freedom. But, we must make up our mind. Either we believe The Word of God or we don't! If we choose The Word. Then we stand strong and choose to Never Let Life Speak Louder Than Truth! Now, we know Jesus is The Truth, In John 14:6, NKJV, Jesus said, “I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life. No one comes to The Father except through Me. We also know The Truth is The Word and The Word is Je...

How does the Kingdom of God work when sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ

  The Kingdom of God works in Seed form and it always and only produces after It's Own Kind. If you plant sunflower seeds, you will get sunflowers. If you plant apple seeds, you will get an apple tree and it will produce apples. NOT Pecans! If your apple tree produces pecans, guess what? It's not an apple tree. It's a pecan tree. Seed, Spirit, and Sword We must examine The Fruit of the Spirit in our lives! In Luke 6:43-45, NKJV, Jesus says, 43 “For a Good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear Good Fruit. 44 For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. 45 A Good man out of the Good Treasure of his heart brings forth Good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. In Galatians 5, Paul verifies what the fruit of the flesh is and what The Fruit of the Spirit is. So...
