Inspiration: An Accounts Manager wanted to buy a house since he was in a small apartment. God gave him a vision of a house with a stop sign in front of it. The stop sign covered half the house. The Holy Spirit put on his heart to prepare for Bible College and not to buy the house. At the time he left for Bible College, he looked at the Real Estate market and found the whole economy was down. He praised God he did not buy that house but used the money for Bible College instead.

Inspiration: I get so blessed to see families that truly worship God at Christmas and don’t get caught up with Santa Claus and Frosty the Snowman. I was in a house one time when a video on the life of Jesus was put on the TV. When the four year old daughter saw Jesus (in the video) on TV, she danced all over the room saying Jesus, Jesus, Jesus and then ran to the TV set and kissed the screen thinking she was kissing Jesus. This was true worship that not only blessed me but I am sure blessed God also.

Inspiration: Many Christians today live in safe environments where their lives are not threatened on a daily basis. I spent a lot of time at Bible College with a man from Bagdad, Iraq. He became a Christian during the Gulf War in the early 1990s. He told me what it is like to live in Iraq. I pray for him since his life is in danger now that he has completed Bible College and is back in the Middle East.

Inspiration: One leader said “Why should anyone hear the Gospel twice before someone has heard it once.” Too many churches are so inwardly focused they never share the good news with new people. I am blessed to see how God has used missionaries in places like South Korea that was mostly Buddhist and now has some of the largest Christian churches in the world.

Inspiration: In today’s fast paced society, our prayer life can be ineffective as our minds race around with different thoughts. I have to pray for a long while before my thoughts quiet down and I can be still before God. I have made the mistake of answering my phone in the middle of my prayer time and find distractions can stir up my mind and I have to spend a while getting my mind quiet before the Lord again.

Inspiration: A worship leader wrote a song about Jesus giving His life for us. These lyrics revealed: Jesus being spat upon, struck in the face, mocked and crowned with thorns. The song goes on to tell about the lashes ripping open His back, the nails driven through His hands and feet, and the agony of hanging on the cross, in humility, pain, and suffering while taking on our sins. The song ends with a triumphant phrase that the tomb is empty and that Jesus has resurrected from the dead! People need to visualize the price Jesus paid in laying down His life for us as well as the joy that He is alive today ready to talk to us!

Inspiration: One Christian had a vision of unity. The vision had each member of the Christian team coming from a different Catholic and Protestant denomination. The denomination name was on the back of each sweater. Jesus was the captain of the Christian team and said “I have already won the victory for you on the cross, so go out and claim your victory.” Devils made up the opposing team. Each member of the Christian team appreciated each other as they needed to work together to claim the victory against the opposition. Each Christian team member knew they were like soldiers on the same side. They were God’s army.

Inspiration: One Bible teacher spoke on the gift of tongues, interpretation and prophecy. The teacher explained that these words from God are not generated in your head but are from the Spirit of God talking to your spirit. Young Christians often can not distinguish between their own thoughts and God’s thoughts as they have not studied enough of God’s Word (the Bible) and have not been taught on the discerning of spirits. Mature Christians hear from their heart and are not swayed by wrong emotions.

Inspiration: In recent days there has been more teaching on prayer and intercession as people are learning to pray in the Holy Spirit. This type of prayer is very powerful as some churches started to pray and intercede for their city to stop the gang violence and crime and to bring the power of God to their city. A drug dealer was on his way to kill someone, and as he was going by one of these churchs, he felt compelled to pull into the parking lot. He didn’t know what was overcoming him and he went inside the church while the service was on and he gave his life to Jesus. This drug dealer then confessed his sins to the police.

Inspiration: God spoke to a salesman and called him to Bible College. He had been with a big firm for seven years and was one of the company’s top salesmen. This man wanted God’s work and witness to be continued at this company. He set up a meeting with five other Christians where he worked, and told them that he was leaving for Bible College. He passed on the torch to them and said to them that they were to carry on being Jesus’ light in the workplace.

Inspiration: This scripture is helpful for choirs and musicians as many of them get over anxious, making sure every note is in tune and played correctly. This self centeredness makes it hard for people to spontaneously bow their knee to Jesus during worship because they are more concerned what other think than what Jesus thinks. On the other hand, I have been in a service where everyone was humbly and passionately worshipping Jesus when a glory cloud (similar to what is described in the Old Testament) appeared in the church and was seen by all. We all knew this was from God as His power was evident.

Inspiration: Many women have a problem with the word ‘submit’ in this scripture and many men have a problem with loving their wives as Jesus loves the church. However Christian counselors help explain that submitting does not mean for the wife to be a doormat but to submit to the husband’s role of priest in the home. If the husband takes this role and loves and cherishes his wife, couples can flow together in their God given roles.

Inspiration: One Bible teacher told us the difference between Christianity and other world religions. He said the world religions are based on doing certain rituals or believing in some leader who is dead and buried. Christianity is very different. Jesus Christ is God’s only Son sent beacuse God loved the world so much. Jesus lived life without sin, and laid down His life to be the sacrificial offering to redeem all man’s sins. Jesus’s resurrection from the dead proved eternal life. Christianity is not a set of rituals but a personal relationship with God where Jesus loves us constantly and unconditionally and sins are forgiven.
