When you look at the gifts the Wise Men brought you to realize this is more than just a group of curious men following a strange star.  They brought themselves and gifts – This is what worship is, giving back to God from all that we have

No one is really surprised that the world is dark. And when there is light, it gives hope to humanity. So when we shine… when we reflect the light and love of Jesus by loving people through our good deeds, they see our good deeds, but God gets the praise. It points to Him! Because it’s His light!

If you get serious about God's plan for your life, there are going to be people who'll misunderstand you and there will be people who misjudge you and there will be people who criticize you and call you crazy!

Jesus was there in the beginning… Jesus is God from the beginning… And Jesus made everything in the beginning.

When someone ordinary surrenders to the grace of God and obeys what God puts on their hearts… He uses them to do extraordinary things!

God wants to set us free from the things that hold us captive, the idols of our life, and when we give to the things of God, he sets us free from the power of things of this world. It’s spiritual, it’s powerful and all of a sudden, we see the power, we see that it’s bigger than us and the now It’s worship. It shows God that he’s our first priority! And it transforms us to be more like God…for God so loved the world that He gave…so that whoever believes in Him would be saved and be part of God’s family.

Keeping the BIG PICTURE in mind sets a context for healing to happen, IF it’s ever going to – but without it healing is impossible..

There’s a close relationship between our spiritual, physical and emotional state. Our body, mind, and spirit live so close to one another that they tend to catch each other’s illness. So, if we are down emotionally, it affects the way we feel physically. If we get sick physically, it affects our emotions.

Jesus said the gates of hell can't prevail against his church, and no weaponformed against us can prosper. So, regardless of the outcome of the battles we face, whether or not we do waste the life Jesus died to give to us, the battle has no bearing on the spiritual war!
