We must be intentional in searching our hearts to see how far we have strayed away from God, to see what things we have left undone, what relationships need to be restored, and who we need to forgive. As we turn back to God with our whole hearts. We look at those areas in our lives that have been long overdue to get a checkup. Have you ever put off an annual checkup at the doctor? You know you need to go, but just don’t get around to it. There are times because of a lack of due diligence, the doctor may give us a not-so-favorable report. As we come to the end of the year, I believe that the Lord has been tugging at our hearts. We have been looking in the mirror of the Word, and what we see hasn’t been lining up with the Word. We don’t like it, and we are going to make changes to get right with God. When we ask God to search us, He will do just that. We want our minds to think as God does and not the world. We are asking God to reveal to us those hidden sins we aren’t aware of. We just want to be clean, righteous, and renewed in our commitment to God. We have looked at ourselves and our relationships in our homes, extended families, ministry, school, or job. We have fixed things with everyone. We humbled ourselves and said, “Hey, you know what I have done this wrong or that wrong.” I shouldn’t have said this or that. Will you forgive me, I am sorry. True repentance results in a radical and persistent pursuit of holy living, walking with God in obedience to His commands.

Becoming Fearless – Part 4

As Christians, there are times when we fear one another. We are good at quoting Scriptures but when it comes to living them out that is a different story. We fear being seen differently, we fear being talked about, we fear what others think about us, we fear being judged, we fear being ridiculed, and we fear others seeing us as being weak or who we are portraying to be. We should not be afraid of one another. As Children of God, children of the most High God, sisters and brothers in Christ. We are to be rooted and grounded in love. The only one we are to fear is God. We aren’t even supposed to fear God like we do in the natural with terror. We are to have awe Him. A profound reverence and respect for God. “We love Him because He first loved us”, I John 4:19. In order, to get rid of fear we must confront those areas that we have been hiding from. Fear is not our portion. It’s time to expose it and walk in true freedom. Let’s not allow the fear of man to hinder us from walking in the fullness of all who God has for us as His children.

Expose the Enemy In Your Life

There are times in our lives when we are in agreement with the enemy and know he has taken up residence within. We rather live a lie instead of facing the truth. We would rather hide, pretend as if we have it all together and keep up the façade. We can be so quick to get angry with someone and turn our backs on them. You have every right to do that but the one who we need to be mad at is Satan. Exposing the enemy in our lives can be a scary thing to do. The devil is the one who uses people to mess up people. So, if you want to get mad at someone get mad at the devil because he is the one who has hurt you through a hurting individual. He is the one who has you messed up and your family. He is the one that has stolen your health. He is the one who has your mind all confused. He is the one that wants you to stay stuck in your past. Don’t let the enemy hide in you rather expose what doesn’t line up with God. Expose the enemy in your life and be free.
