highway to holiness

We each are on a journey in this life as though traveling on a highway. Each one of our decisions direct us on this highway that ultimately leads us to our final destination, eternity. We need to choose wisely as each decision really does matter. Our most important decision is, what will we do with Jesus. Eternity, Eternity.....where will you spend eternity and what will you do with Jesus! Travel Wisely!

God is God and We are Not~

Because God’s Truth is absolute we need to stick to the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth.  We are living in a culture that is altering “truth” so all can feel comfortable in their sin. Even within Church society we are experiencing a “cut and paste” from the Word of God to fit what seems right or logical to man.  And when man is “enlightened” by his own thoughts he unwittingly claims to know more than God Almighty, therefore, he places himself above God.  When we reduce God to the point that He is small enough to equal the intellect of man we have made a tragic mistake.  Exchanging “truth” for a falsity is a grave error and carries with it a weighty consequence. What a horrific sorrow for those deceived and the final result will be a much greater loss than we can comprehend.  We need to be full of the knowledge of who God is and let God be God and Truth be Truth.  As we read the Word we will know the “truth” and  we won’t be deceived and led astray.
You must not have any other god but Me. Deut. 5:7

Awaken the Giant~

The Spirit Realm is full of activity. The enemy is trying to detour the body of Christ by deceit, laziness and division.  If the enemy were successful he would lull the Church into a slumbering state to be ineffective and  unable to comprehend the seriousness of the hour.  But, the power of God is awakening the Giant within us to arise in this final hour and fight the good fight of faith.  God has appointed each one to conquer ground for the Kingdom while we travel this earth.  We’re to co-labor with Christ, we have a responsibility to participate with Him, “Faith without works is dead”.  With the end fast approaching we must not delay any longer, but we are to take our assignments from God and work for eternity.  Because the only thing on this earth that matters is living for eternity.  So arise, in this our final hour! 
“We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the One who sent us.  The night is coming, and then no one can work." John 9:4.

Immovable~

We are not to be influenced by this world instead we are to be immovable in our faith.  We are not to conform to the world, or to be entangled with the mindset of our culture, not allowing the world to corrupt us.  This takes discipline and is a conscience decision which requires intentional living.  We need to be a transformer, renewing our mind to be like Christ and unshackling our self from the ways of this world. As we align with God we develop our faith to be immovable which attracts others to the Kingdom.  Our goal is to please The Father and to hear these words “well done, good and faithful servant.”
"Be on Guard.  Stand firm in the faith.  Be Courageous.  Be Strong and do everything with Love." 1 Corn. 16:13

Choose~

No one is exempt it is required of all mankind.  Choose you this day who you will serve.
Do you claim Him as your Savior and Conquering King, or do you deny Him the rights over everything.
Our decision on earth is the only key that unlocks our eternal destiny.
We are all eternal beings in this we have no choice.  Therefore, be wise and obey The Father’s voice.
And with our final breath our Spirit leaves our flesh.
So there will be no time for questions or any hesitation as in an instant we’ve arrived, our eternal destination. CCole

What a Day!

There is coming a day when “The Church” will experience the enveloping love of the Father unobstructed by the powers of darkness.  All will give honor, glory and praise to Him, acknowledging God as the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  We will join with the song the angels sing, HOLY, HOLY, HOLY is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies!  All human pride will be brought down, and human arrogance will be humbled.  Therefore, while we are tethered to the earth, let’s seek out those things that please the Father and give Him the Honor that He deserves, singing the earth is filled with His glory, acknowledging Him as the One and Only, True and Holy King of Kings.

Throne Room Miracles~

The book of Esther is rich and full of the provision of God by miraculous answers to prayer.  We see the positioning of God over and over with Mordecai and Esther.  We also see what the enemy meant for evil God uses it for good.   By outward appearance and the facts that were transpiring in this story, it would seem like the outcome for the Jews wouldn’t end well.  But, this book is a great example of God working behind the scene.  There are several occasions in this short book where we observe the plan of the enemy reversing on itself and the very opposite happens than what had been planned.  Through out this book God was positioning, protecting and blessing His children and we can know He is doing the same for us.  There can by times when the trouble that surrounds us can appear that it will overtake us.  But we have a God that is continually working the miraculous on our behalf and as we trust Him; He doesn't just stop the plan of the enemy, He reverses the curse and we receive a blessing instead.  This is a good reminder for us to transfer our focus from our situation and trust God as He is working miracles for us behind the scene.

Gifts from The Father~

Hear My voice calling you.  I love you with an everlasting love.  Come, I want to pour on you more than enough.  There are people and life situations that have tried to take the promise that I’ve given to you.  But, the gift belongs to you.  It has My signature on it.  Don’t allow discouragement to slow you down.  Come and receive what I have given to you.

Today the "Perfect Scenario"~

There are people in our life that we can influence for the Kingdom.  What is the area of ministry that is in need of someone with our gifting and abilities.  What neighbor is in need of a friendly wave or a cheery hello?  Who are the people that we “rub shoulders” with on a weekly basis that could use a positive voice or a happy smile.  We encounter people every day that are in need of someone who will care enough to take the time and interest to interact with them, either by our actions or conversation, and help direct them to the only thing that matters, life with Christ and heaven as their home.  Let’s not wait for what we think is the “perfect scenario”.  "Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant if they watch every cloud, they never harvest." Ecc. 11:4

Living for the King~

God is active in our world.  He is not silent or uninvolved; He is at all times accomplishing His master plan. We see over and over in scripture how God positions people to be used to further Kingdom purposes.  As in the story of Nehemiah, it doesn’t matter what our natural occupation is.  God took Nehemiah out of a position of serving the king and used him to be a contractor for the King of Kings.  In the story of Esther, she is taken out of a common life and given the position of a queen.  But the opposite transpires for Moses; he is taken out of royalty and placed in the wilderness.  There are many examples of God displacing people from their natural duties and reassigning them for the work of the King.  God is strategically placing all who are willing to be used for the Kingdom and sometimes that means giving up of what we think is right or good for our life. So let’s not lock ourselves into a position in life without giving God consent to do with us as He pleases.

Anchor Yourself~

Anchor yourself to the solid rock which is immovable, unchanging and true.  These are days of trials, uncertainty, days of confusion and of waiting.  But the best is yet to come.  The Spirit of the Lord says, “Look unto Me, I do all things well and I work according to My plan and not the ways of man.  There is much I will do in and through you as you look unto Me.  I have not abandon or forsaken you.  I will fulfill all that I have spoken to you.  Don’t look to the left or to the right.  But look to Me, I will guide you and make the way straight for you to accomplish all that I have planned for you to do.  Cling to the Rock and I will anchor your soul.
