It's All About the Kingdom

Romans 12:3
The Message

3I'm speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, it's important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him.


How do you see yourself? Do you see yourself as others do or as God sees you? The only goodness in you is the God in you. All the gifts and talents He has given you is to build His kingdom. All of the blessings you have are for His glory. You have what you have and you are who you are because of His grace. What is grace? Undeserved favor.

As God uses you, don't think to highly of yourself. God works through you but He doesn't need you to accomplish His purpose. He has blessed you to bless someone else. Don't make the mistake of thinking it was you. Don't worry about recognition or accolades. It's all about the kingdom.

Be a Kingdom builder.

God Bless

Jesus is the Reason

Isaiah 9:6
New Living Translation


6 For a child is born to us,
a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called:
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

In your effort to show loved ones how much you love them, don't forget Jesus is the reason for this season. He left His place in Heaven seated next to the Father so that He could give you a more abundant life.

This is also a time of year when many are depressed for a number of reasons. They are grieving because they lost a loved one, they don't have enough money to buy expensive gifts, or they have no family or friends. Remember this, Jesus is a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.

If you don't know Him, I invite you to meet this wonderful Savior
Romans 10:9-10
New American Standard Bible

9that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;

10for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

Just Be B.A.D.

Psalm 91:3
Amplified Bible

3For [then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.


B.A.D. -- While shopping at a local Wal-Mart, a woman spotted a man with an acronym on his shirt that had B.A.D.

Being the person that she was (curious), she stopped the man and asked, "What does B.A.D. stand for?"

He replied B.A.D. stands for: "Blessed And Delivered". That thought stuck with her as she finished doing her shopping that day. So she came up with a little advice for us today.

1. When the enemy tries to attack you, be B.A.D.

2. When things don't seem to be going right on your job, be B.A.D.

3. When things are not looking good in your marriage, be B.A.D.

4. When folks scandalize your name , just be B.A.D.

Get with somebody who you know that you can be B.A.D. with!!!

May God Bless You And Have A B.A.D. Day! Any person that can kneel before God can stand before anything .

Now send this to the people who you know don't mind being B. A. D.


Aren't you glad you're B. A. D. ?!!

Are You Ready for Bigger Things?

Bishop E. Earl Jenkins

"You...enlarged me when I was in distress." Psalm 4:1 AMP

Did you know that the hermit crab looks for a shell that fits him, then lives in it till he outgrows it? At that point he has to scurry along the ocean floor and find a bigger one; it's a process that repeats itself throughout his entire life. Are you clinging to something that no longer fits you, just because it's easy and familiar? David said, "You...freed me when I was hemmed in and enlarged me when I was in distress." To develop and grow spiritually you must be willing to move out of your comfort zone and deal with a little 'distress.'

What worked for you yesterday may not work today. Maybe it's a job you've outgrown, a relationship you need to reexamine or a behavior you need to change. Regardless of what it is, never become so 'settled' that you can't let go and move on when you need to.

Patience and persistence are admirable, but they won't work in situations you've outgrown. Instead of hanging in and trying harder, at certain points you have to stop and ask yourself, "Is this situation good for me?" If you're not sure, ask God for "an understanding mind [to]...know the difference between...right and...wrong" (1Ki 3:9 TLB). His Word says, "If you need wisdom...ask [him], and he will [gladly] give it to you" (Jas 1:5 NLT).

When God says it's time to move on, it's because there's another shell out there that will fit you even better. But you can't take occupancy till you vacate the old one. So how about it - are you ready for bigger things?

Time to Reap What Was Sown

Galatians 6:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible

7 Don't be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows he will also reap, 8 because the one who sows to his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. 9 So we must not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don't give up.

2 Corinthians 9:6
New International Version

6Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

You are about to enter a season when you will reap what you've sown. The seeds that you have planted are about to bloom. You have sown a seed through tithes and offering, you are about to reap because you did it joyfully. You have sown seeds through prayer and fasting.Marvel at the greatness of an awesome God as you see the manifestation of those seeds. You have sown seeds of praise and worship, watch as God shows Himself strong for you. Don't get tired now. You are entering into a season of harvest.

On the other hand, if you have sown seeds of complaining, fear and doubt...you have delayed your promise. God is not mocked. You will reap what you've sown. If you have held back your finances, prayer, fasting, praise, and worship, you will continue to be in the state you are in.

Today is turn around day. You have sown your seeds in good ground and are about to reap. If you have sown your seeds in ground that is not fertile. You can turn it around and begin sowing in good ground.

God Bless
