GPS For Today And The Rest.

If you are led by the Spirit of God, you are are a Child of God.
Paul.

Back in the day, I can remember (when going on trips) I would simply get out ye olde Rand McNally ...AKA  a map.. to plan our route.  As I became a little more... well... sophisticated... I used trip tickets, ordered by my beloved TLOML. These were  sent us by our faithful road protection company,  AAA.  Later I started listening to my "On Star" give me guidance to keep me from getting lost. BUT then I bought me a Droid with a bonified GPS.  I hear you now.... "Progress!" 

The thing about this transition is that, when I did it myself with a map, I rarely ever got lost.  And if I did, I could ask for direction... yes ladies I am a guy who does ask for directions.  The trip tick sometimes took us a hundred miles out of the way... making a 900 mile trip into a thousand.  And On Star made its share of errors.  With the bugs now out of it, GPS serves me well... that is unless I ask for the WRONG location.  OR unless the place I am going is not yet programmed into the Satellite.  But over all I do like GPS.

Still, I have to tell you that sometimes I get REAL anxious listening to that lady's voice, especially if I feel like I am going in circles.

Anyway this GPS has put me to me thinking  about the Holy Spirit today... for my Pentecostal friends that would be Holy Ghost :o)  As I look back over the past 40 plus years, I have learned that this Spirit of the Living God has been faithful to lead me in the right way, even though I sometimes became a little skittish about where I perceived I was going.

Additionally it is REALLY a comfort to, not only know the HOLY SPIRIT leads me.  He also is an indicator of my relationship to the Almighty.  As Paul says in the WORD.... If we are led by the Spirit of God... we are children of God.  Yup! This is a real comforting thought indeed.

Y'all Be Blessed 2day.
Especially 2day.
Take this new year, 2012... 1 step at a time..
1 day at a time...
Take any hardship you see as God's pathway to peace

You will be glad you did.
Where The Spirit Leads You...Follow...
Child of God :o)

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
