Inspiration For Friday, November 29, 2013
Inspiration: I grew up going to church each week but did not know much about the Holy Spirit and had no clue what the word anointing meant. As I started to study the Bible I learned that the Holy Spirit is a person, not an it, and is sent by Jesus to be the power source on earth. Now, I realize that those churches who regularly have healing services where people get healed, operate under the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit and have church leaders that listen and obey the Holy Spirit’s directions.

Inspiration For Thursday, November 28, 2013
Inspiration: I have noticed that very few people can tell you what the sermon was all about, one day or one week after it is given. Even prophecies that are given in church are forgotten by people the moment they leave the church. The wise people I see are the ones that takes notes and discuss the sermon at meal times. This helps them remember the Word of God which was spoken.

Inspiration For Tuesday, November 26, 2013
Inspiration: When we were asked to memorize these nine fruits of the spirit, long-suffering was the one I knew I needed the most work on. Living in a society today where everyone wants immediate answers, I found myself not willing to suffer long. It seemed as a young Christian, God would answer my prayers more quickly but as I grew older, He wanted to produce this fruit in me.

Inspiration For Sunday, November 24, 2013
Inspiration: A truck driver had a rough upbringing as his father said to him “You’ll never amount to anything!” This produced unforgiveness which tormented this truck driver causing him to drink heavily. In his twenties, he had no self esteem and went downhill to the point of committing suicide. Just before taking his life he heard someone talk about Jesus on the TV. He got on his knees and asked Jesus to save him. He has become an on-fire Christian and has forgiven his father.

Inspiration For Saturday, November 23, 2013
Inspiration: A wife was ready to give up on her alcoholic husband but God spoke to her to pray for him. Her two young daughters started to pray over their Daddy’s beer in the refrigerator. When the father came home he went straight to the refrigerator for his beer. He drank the first sip and then spat it out thinking it was bad. He went down to the local bar and ordered a drink and even that tasted bad. The family kept praying and three months later, this husband got on his knees and gave his life to Christ.

Inspiration For Friday, November 22, 2013
Inspiration: The president of a Bible College said that the best sermon you will ever preach is just to tell people how Jesus saved you. I practiced writing out my own story of how I became a Christian and how Jesus changed my life. I memorized a five minute version of my story to share with some people who are interested and a 30 second version of my story for the person who shows little interest. I learned that sharing Jesus becomes easier the more you do it.

Inspiration For Thursday, November 21, 2013
Inspiration: Statistics from the churches show that over 95% of the average congregation have never led one person to Jesus. This is because they have never been trained how to share their faith and overcome their fears. I am overjoyed to see more and more Christian literature that teaches people how to receive Jesus into their hearts. Those who are too nervous to share their faith with others can give the lost person some Christian literature to read and invite these people to church.

Inspiration For Wednesday, November 13, 2013
Inspiration: When I first got saved, I was convicted by God that I said many things that were displeasing to Him. Not only did I participate in dirty jokes but I used to be very sarcastic. I also was very judgmental and critical of others. God showed me that I needed to ask His Holy Spirit to help make me more holy as I couldn’t fix these problem areas in my life by myself.
