BE RIVETED IN ALL GOD'S WAYS, BE FOCUSSED UPON HIM

PROVERBS 3:5-6 "TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART & LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING; v.6. IN ALL ....ALL...ALL YOUR WAYS ACNOWLEDGE HIM & HE WILL MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT . v. 7 DO NOT BE WISE IN YOUR OWN EYES FEAR THE LORD & SHUN EVIL ."

Heard these words before ? I am sure many of you have , how is the DOING going with these promises from God in your own life ?Many people ask me how to discern the perfect will of God in their own lives , that is without doubt one of the top five most "asked questions" at this time in people's lives . I want to over the next few days give some thoughts for consideration , contemplation , reflection and action.
1. If you are not prepared to obey what Jesus shows you don't demand that He show you HIS WAY for your life .
2.If the Lord Jesus is really speaking to you it will always be in regard to the KINGDOM of GOD on earth as it is in heaven ......thus it won't be personal opinions or egotistical empire building .
3. The way of the LORD will always bring glory to GOD ,His will in your life & mine will always require a humble , teachable ,open heart, mind & spirit in our lives.
4.The will of God for you & I will never contradict the WORD of GOD .......& the Heavenly Father will not tolerate making God's word fit our own personal theological position to make us have a comfortable , cozy committment.
5. If the Lord is really speaking, you will know it .....and know it & continue to have fresh revelation on that matter in your own journey of faith, often the same message will come back to you through various disconnected people or messages , affirming the same message over & over until you & I get it.
There are many facets of God's will can be seen clearly reinforced in three ways :
a. God's Providential will
b. God's Moral will (i.e. Ten Commandments).
c. God's Personal Will for your life .
Read on tomorrow ........I will add some more for prayerful consideration .....in the mean time stay completely foccussed on what JESUS is saying to you today .

I am praying for you , please pray for me and a lost world !

HUMILITY & BROKENNESS IS SOLID GROUND TO KNEEL UPON

Some good one liners:

GOD DOES NOT REVEAL HIS PERFECT WILL WHO ARE WANTING MERELY POWER!
CONSIDERATION, REFLECTION& CONTEMPLATION MINUS PARTICIPATION IS NOT THE WAY GOD'S KINGDOM WORKS.
I DO NOT GET TO KNOW GOD'S WILL BEFORE I GET TO KNOW GOD.... ONCE I FALL IN LOVE WITH JESUS AND OBEY HIM THEN I GET TO KNOW HIS WILL ......
HUMILITY IS THE BEST PLACE TO HEAR JESUS VOICE .....
DON'T SEE THEN ACT.......HUMBLY ACT & THEN SEE.......
BE RIVETED , STAY FOCUSSED , LISTEN TO WHAT JESUS WHISPERS INTO YOUR HEART WHEN YOUR HEART IS BROKEN.

I am desperately praying for the hearts of all .. my own included to be humble enough to hear the Father's WORDS to us .
LOVE & PRAYERS

CHRIST CENTRED HEADS .....BURNING HEARTS

We are called to have :'the mind of Christ'.....ROMANS 12 : 1-2 "BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD , BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MINDS ...THEN YOU WILL KNOW GOD'S PLEASING & PERFECT WILL."When seeking the will of God , best be ready for His answer.....& keep your mind free from fear & doubt about His perfect will in your life.
Whilst we are called to have a 'CHRIST CENTRED MIND ' ......we are also called to have BURNING HEARTS full of The HOLY SPIRIT, the Heart of JESUS....the love of JESUS ....the passion of JESUS and the willingness to become every day "LIVING SACRIFICES...HOLY & PLEASING TO GOD ...THIS IS OUR REASONABLE ACT OF SPIRITUAL WORSHIP." Here is the base line dear readers : what we authorise in our lives ,God allows us to take responsibility for ......totally from the other perspective what God authorises in us HE takes responsibility for....in & through us !
For me that is such a great release , it means I don't have to live life in my own strength , making my own plans , with my own resources......JESUS releases His authority, presence , peace ,joy & assurance. If it is God's will ....it becomes Holy Spirit filled ! Make no mistake , mere intellect & relying on the flesh will never cheer you onto such a position in GOD . So today I encourage you to allow your mind to be CHRIST -CENTRED & keep your heart AFLAME with HOLY PASSION for JESUS .
PRAYING FOR YOU ALL!

GLOBAL BOATS OF COMPLACENCY HAVE REALLY BEEN ROCKED

Events in Australia & globally are sadly shaking whatever boats of complacency we may have ever chosen to abide in.
There is a desperate need NOW more than ever to face a tragically desperate world with a loving SAVIOUR , our own commitment that is faithful , zealous , authentic and full of hope peace , and promise that with JESUS there will be SALVATION that can only come from His loving arms.
The church of Jesus must do, be ,more than mirroring the status quo......to a world that quite frankly has run out of it's own articulate , political , answers.World events, and local tragedy have shaken our comfortable maintenace mode and you & I are really needed to be authentically more concerned about a dying world than keeping our own comfortable Christianity floating along lake reservation. Please be activated into serious Discipleship, committed service , radical obedience to the call of a loving SAVIOUR ....THE PRINCE OF PEACE ....THE GREAT KING OF KINGS & LORD OF LORDS ....THE ONE WHO WAS & IS TO COME...and that my friends is seriously ABSOLUTE TRUTH! Isn't it tragic that we have now for so long tried so hard to not tread on anyone elses toes to the point of confusing political correctness with truth. The secular world has been preaching" blessed are the comfortable ", & now some of the church are responding with "comfortable are the blessed " . Well the events of the past few months have soundly "rocked" all of those thoughts & today I want to remind you that the only safe place in Australia , indeed in the world , is in the loving arms of JESUS CHRIST the ONE & ONLY LORD & SAVIOUR of the entire universe .
Stay focussed on Him & whatever happens globally you will be SAVED !

Praying for you today!
