God is Great

We read Uzziah today.

When he began to reign he was 16. He prospered and made his land prosper.

One day Uzziah allowed pride to take over and that was messy. In one day he ruined a 52 year old reign.

You see, one should know the truth. God wants us to have a real true intimate relationship with God.

The year Uzziah died, Isaiah sees God's glory. He saw that God's glory was more important than his own.

The word Lord cones from another word. Adonay which means sovereignty and headship.

We have to see the world as Isaiah saw it. We belong to Jesus, we belong to God.

God is reigning and ruling. God was and He is in charge.

And the anointing makes a difference.  All the time.

Sometimes all we need is God's presence filling us. Seek that and you shall find it!

For God is holy and holy is the way God is!

Isaiah saw the Lord as the Lord of Hosts. For He is geater than anything that can come against us.

God is good!

God bless you!

Today's learning from God

Dear reader,

Today in the service at Christ Church in Palm Harbor Pastor Joe preached powerfully and here's what I take with me. Here's what I understand.

1) We've got an advantage over the unredeemed for God has redeemed us and God orchestrates us for us to reign in life. To thrive in life.

2) What's God's purpose? you'll find it in the Bible. read it!

3) We need to stay spiritually fit. Again, read the Bible. 1 hour every day.

4) Commitment, faithfulness, relationships with people. Start today.

5) God sees things we don't see. God chooses people according to his vision and purpose.

6) David was learning responsibility when he was taking care of the sheep. God wants people that are responsible.

7) We choose to keep God's anointing. God will anoint you but it is your decision to keep it or not. That's what happened to Saul when he let his jealousy of David grow in his heart. He chose to not keep God's anointing. David, on the other hand, was anointed by God and he kept his anointing. David is considered the greatest king, a man according to God's heart.

8) We have to be under God's authority.

9) Fear is like a goliath. We don't have to live in fear. Because we are with God.

That's what I learned and that's what I recommend you to follow.

God bless you and have a great day!

Key quote: Love and Life

"Live in the world as if only God and your soul were in it; then your heart will never be made captive by any earthly thing." — John of the Cross

The Bible does tells us a lot about life and how to live.

The Bible also describes God as love. And that's how we should live. Simply because love pushes us beyond, love makes us achieve our dreams and start actually living! Love conquers fear!

So, my advice is this: put your dreams on a paper, set a deadline and leap into love to teach it!

Have a blessed day!

Love,
Antonio

Key quote

Imagine you have to go from Los Angeles to New York at night. And the only electricity you have access to is the light in your car. And if you don't go at night, tonight, you will die.

Now I believe there are two ways of taking this trip.

The first is of course wait until daylight. A nice time, when you can see better, there are no clouds, the sun is shining and everything is beautiful. The problem with this option is that there are no guarantee whatsoever that the following day is going to be a good day, plus you'd be dead. So, basically instead of living, you waited on life. Not the smartest choice. God gave you a life for a reason: to live it fully.

Now, waiting is an interesting choice mainly because it is the safest one. It is also based on fear. You will die though.

At this point you must be thinking that choosing to travel at night is going to cause you to live. And yes, that's what is going to happen.

You see, when the car is going in the dark and all you can see is a couple of feet ahead, you are actually exercising your faith as you have a destination which is New York. And the most important part here is of course the journey, not so much the destination. Plus you aquire experience on the way.

This is my idea and below is the quote.

"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience."

~Henry Miller
