Insightful Devotion

Sometimes we may have a strange feeling, our gut is telling us that something isn’t right or doesn’t quite add up.  Whatever you call that feeling it has a name which is the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit, lives on the inside of us, teaching us how to live righteously in the finished works of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  In doing so, whenever we have moments that leave us feeling uneasy.  It is important that we be alert and of sober mind listening to the wise advise from the Holy Spirit; so that we do not ignore the red flags.

Today, I talk about how Insightful Devotion Podcast started, and I give a message that encourages every individual to continue to do as the Lord has instructed them; by not despising the small beginnings. So when we are getting ready to do what the Lord, has called us to do we will understand that it is for God, to receive the glory and that we are his ambassadors.

Don’t allow the negative labels people may give you, your situations, sins, or even the labels you’ve given to yourself come to pass.  Only allow what God, has called you to become in him, define who you really are.  So be sober and alert to what you are allowing in your life and be transformed in Christ Jesus, because the bible says as a man thinks so is he.

Temptation is something we’ve all experienced at some point within our lives.  Oftentimes, we may want to blame others including God, just anyone except ourselves.  However, James 1:13-15 is clear in saying, "When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death."  So, how do we recognize the devil or satan’s schemes?  Well, in the book of Genesis, we see how temptation came into the picture, deceiving mankind and causing us to live in a broken world we know see before us.  Yet, we as believers in God, are able to overcome the temptation we face, with the help of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who always makes a way of escape.

Often times we don’t want to spend time with God, by reading the Holy Bible, because we feel as if we are too far from God, and we think he doesn’t want to hear from us. However, that is far from the truth, because when we read the Holy Bible, and we hunger and thirst for righteousness spending time with God, we shall be filled.  It is then we realize, that we are free and not trapped.
