powerful1 added a text contribution The Role and Purpose of an Angel19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to bring thee these good tidings.

Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. Christ is the end of all self-righteousness and He is the Righteousness of God. What that means is that we no longer have to earn our righteousness but we do need to receive the Righteousness of God only through Jesus Only Jesus and the price He paid allows us to enter in to God's Righteousness. It is not the suits or dresses I wear to Church that makes me righteous. Not singing hymns will earn… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution No One Can Condemn MeTherefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, This morning I felt guilty. Guilty over the sins of yesterday. Guilty of decisions gone wrong. Guilty over the things I said to my wife. Guilty over how I have raised my children. Just guilty. But as I read this passage I now know more than ever before that Jesus through His shed blood has cleansed me from all guilt and shame and that now I am free from guilt and condemnation. Guilt is what I inflict upon myself.… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution The Spirit does not discriminate!Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. As I was reading this text The Holy Spirit reminded me that He is an equal opportunity employer. By that I mean when it comes to gender He does not discriminate. His purpose is to fulfill God's Purpose in the mind and hearts of every believer male or female. Once that is done both men and women will prophesy. In other words they will begin to speak truth to power. They will confro… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution No ComplainingMy joy is not determined by what happens to me but what Christ is doing in me and through me. Joy is about working out what God has already worked in. Do everything without complaining or arguing. - Phil. 2:14. When we complain it is a insult to the character of Christ. Christ is not a complainer nor does He argues. Everybody sees their thing as the exception to everything. Happiness is the symptom of circumstance but joy is a product of perspective. God is still good and I will be grate… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Change of AttitudeYour attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: I need a attitude adjustment. My current attitude just does not line up with the attitude Jesus has. The scripture says my attitude should be the same as Jesus's attitude which means I need to adjust my attitude to reflect my Savior. I will start today. Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Whatever HappensWhatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. I must be honest. I have not conducted myself in a worthy manner. I have conducted myself in a way that would bring shame to His Name and not Glory. Thank God for His forgiveness. Thank Him for His mercy which are new every morning. Every day I get a chance to get it right. Jesus is what I live for. I gotta keep going for Him. Thank You Jesus! Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Who is the Church For?There is always a pull for the local Church to attract Church people not those on the outside. The Church wants everyone to be like those who belong to it. People need to be members of the Church and they must be circumcised or meet some other requirements in order to belong. Club oriented. 10 “So why are you now trying to out-god God, loading these new believers down with rules that crushed our ancestors and crushed us, too? Our main focus for those of us in the Church is to not make it di… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Do Not.....If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations--21 Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch22 (referring to things that all perish as they are used)--according to human precepts and teachings? This Scripture is so timely for me. There are some things I have handled, tasted and touched that I should not have. These things have gotten into my Spirit and now they must come out. I am in Christ and because… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution KillSwitchSin flips the kill switch on life and potential. When I am dead in my sins my relationships suffer. Sin makes someone who was to influence the world and puts them in survival mode. Sin separates us from our communion with God. We are banished from His presence. Our sin habits enslave us. God made us alive in Christ. We are raised with Christ in victory. Freedom is in Christ. Christ killed my sinful nature. The Cross was my Kill Switch for my sins. What does it mean that Christ cancell… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Religion LiesReligion makes us think we are better than everyone else. The people who gave Jesus the most trouble are the ones at the top of the religious heap. The main traits of being superior, judgemental and unloving are what the world sees from most Christians. Religion always compares itself to others. Religion creates a list of sins to keep score. You can tell you make God in your own image when it turns out that He hates all those you do. Jesus awards humility and brokeness. I am more arrogan… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Abraham Agreed1 Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had borne him no children. But she had an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar; 2 so she said to Abram, “The Lord has kept me from having children. Go, sleep with my maidservant; perhaps I can build a family through her.” Abram agreed to what Sarai said. As I was reading this The Holy Spirit revealed to me that Sarai did not think enough of God to think that God and God alone could impregnate her. She took matters into her own hands. God was not enough in this sit… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution B90X Genesis 1God thru the very first verses of Genesis showed me there has to be a separation of light and darkness. If my life is going to be honored by God I must know and do this. Once God spoke Man into existence He then spoke over him. God's purpose is now known because of what He spoke over man. God fully expects us to master the sin in our lives. Sin keeps me from producing more. God's desire for me is to produce fully and to the max. God has put a mark on me and that Mark is Jesus. Jes… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution Give Me Faith1. Faith is governed by laws and principles but cannot be condensed into a magic formula. God is way too big to be condensed. 2. Our faith is not in our faith but in the Faith of our God. Jesus is the Only Faithful One. Not me. Sometimes I am not faithful. Jesus is always, always Faithful. My success is not and will not be because of me but because of God. 3. Faith is not a drug to sedate me from a life I hate but is a force to transport me to another reality. Faith is not a coping mechan… Read more »

powerful1 added a text contribution The Purpose of ProverbsThe purpose of Proverbs is to instruct me in wisdom. To help me live a disciplined lifestyle. To give Glory to God. Proverbs also has to be digested daily. It instructs me daily in Wisdom. Wisdom is not silent but loud! Just when I think all is quiet here comes Wisdom yelling and screaming. What in the world is going on? Wisdom is very disruptive. Wisdom wants its own way. Finally I give in to Wisdom but it is to my benefit and advantage. Read more »
