Inspiration: I was not as thankful as I should have been as I took many blessings from God for granted.

Inspiration: When I first read this scripture my thought was that sheep were smart enough to follow the shepherd’s voice, but Christians, including myself, don’t even know what the Great Shepherd’s voice sounds like. This gave me new insight into prayer and to be still before God, where I have a pen and paper always ready in case God wants to share something. God’s Word, the Bible, is the foundation for every Christian and He will never tell us anything that contradicts His Holy Bible.

Inspiration: Some churches have become so blind that they say the Bible is just a history book. They preach from other historians rather than the Word of God and wonder why their congregations are dwindling. The blessed and growing churches are the ones who preach the Bible as God’s Word and give altar calls each service for people to commit their lives to Jesus. These churches have outreaches and help new people feel welcome by listening to their concerns so that their questions can be answered.

Inspiration: Christians who have not seen Jesus are blessed because they have received Jesus by faith and not by sight. One Bible teacher explained that this is the reason why Jesus did not stay on earth and show himself to everyone after His resurrection. Jesus could easily extend Himself to be a giant, taller than the mountains, put a sword in people’s faces and say: “Now, do you believe?” Everyone would say ‘yes’ in that situation, not out of love, but out of fear for their lives.

Inspiration: I have made the mistake of criticizing people, and in doing so, verified that this scripture is true, since my criticism came back to slap me in the face. If you criticize, your words will come right back to you in the same area in your life. I learned that this can help me see my blind spots. As soon as I am about to criticize someone, I quickly stop myself and say: “Do I do that also?” The answer is often yes, and now my blind spot has been revealed.

Inspiration: I need joy all the time. There have been times in my life when I felt like the children of Israel going through the desert. After prayer, joy would come and revive me. This joy of the Lord would encourage me to be like Joshua and Caleb. They were leaders who crossed the Red Sea on dry ground that made it into the promised land. Real lasting joy comes from a deep relationship with Jesus Christ being thrilled with the plan God has for our lives. Joy and laughter destroys fear, stress and anxiety. Joy and laughter from God is what the world is looking for but more Christians need to ask the fullness of God’s joy.

I often went to lunch with one colleague at a time as they would be scared to open up if any of their peers were listening. God blessed my work at this firm making me valuable to the company.

Inspiration: One evangelist in Africa says intercession is the detonator to revival. Intercession involves praying in the spirit and praying this scripture so that the blinders would be removed from the non-Christian’s minds. This scripture says the god of this world (satan) is against the work of God. So powerful intercession involves binding (Mathew 18:18) all evil works and strongholds of the devil off the area and off the minds of the people so they would see the truth and see that the devil is out to ruin lives with sin. God’s plan is to give His forgiveness, love, peace, and eternal life to all mankind through His Son Jesus Christ.

Inspiration: At Bible College we were taught to use this scripture before going out on an evangelical mission. We would pray in the Holy Spirit for a long time before we started the outreach. During prayer we would ask for God’s power to descend on us for boldness and for miracles. During our prayer time, our team would sometimes get a vision of a door number or a place that we were suppose to go and visit. We would obey the Holy Spirit’s directions and bring the Word of God to that area. After we returned from these outreaches, we discovered that the more time we spent in prayer listening to the Lord, the more miracles we would see.
