Disconnection Detection

Hello!.....hello!!.....hello!!!....I can't hear you!!!! Sounds familiar? You're talking on the phone outside and without realizing it you begin to walk or drive away from the source of reception or things like trees on building get in your way and causes you to loose reception momentarily. Ever felt that way about your relationship with God? I certainly have. One day our communication with God could be going very well and the next thing you know we let things get in our way and disconnect us from God. For most it's temporary and unfortunately for some it is permanent. We tend to walk away from him without realizing the danger of it. We can not allow ourselves to be pulled away from Him and loose our life line, our reception to Christ. God said he will receive us unto himself, his arms are open wide, His ears are on call to hear our prayers. If we walk too far away and get crowded with the cares of this world we will soon be loosed from the reality that we are lost and separated from God. And until we get back to the source of reception we will not hear Him. We cannot afford to loose the call from God. We all have a call from Jesus and we will never know what it is unless we listen.

One other example of being disconnected from God is when we are not charged. When a phone is constantly on but never charged it will soon loose power until recharged again. If it is never charged again the battery will go dead.  Nowadays we don't have to throw away dead batteries, we can recycle them. Even ink cartridges can be recycled so that it is refilled with ink. This is the good news! There are a lot of us that can be recycled. Holy ghost filled Christians can get drained and should to be refilled to be able to fight against the wiles of the devil. But Why wait to be drained, we should be charged and filled with his spirit everyday. Don't let the devil, that old life sucker drain you, keep yourself armed at all times. Church, bible study groups, reading our bibles daily, prayer, fasting are all examples of being recharged, so surround yourself with people who love God.
We should be charged to be able to win souls for Christ and keep our connection with one who created us.

God bless you,

Total Recall

I can't tell you how many times I have failed and life seemed to stop me in my tracks. Depressed, unable to function and wanting to hide my head in a hole in the ground. I needed a total recall in my life, a moment where God takes me back and transforms me, fixes me, perfects me. I had too many defects in my life, things that caused me pain and trouble. There was nothing and no one that could have fixed it but Christ alone. It's not that He created me imperfect but I have made a path for myself at times that disconnected me from him. I was putting my self on auto pilot and there was no control. We are like automobiles, when something goes wrong with us we need a fix, we need help. Auto owners call on the auto repairman to fix the problems but we pay a price for it and often times we pay more than we should. Everyday automobile companies recall cars to be fixed for free. When we are sick in anyway we go seek professional help, and whether it be a Medical Doctor, a Psychiatrist, or a Psychologist we pay for it. When Jesus recalls us, he calls us to help for free because the price has already been paid. Did you notice that when we go to so these called professionals we sometimes end up with either the same issue or with more problems than what we had before.  And we pay for it. God has an endless supply of solutions to our problems, answers to our questions, and restoration for our souls to make us new again. So let God put you on recall and come back to the great physician, the great creator of us all.

Object of your transformation

God often uses peoples ugly ways to transform us into what he wants us to be in him, whether it be patience or love or even humbleness. Until God is satisfied with the results, meaning we finally get what he's asking of us, the things that bug us the most will continue to be victorious over us. Becoming like Jesus in attitude and love no matter how hard it is to be humble to an "ugly" person or how hard it would be to love the way Jesus wants us to, to a person who is hard to love. Unconditional Godliness!

Sinful "ugly" people are not ugly because of the one's they are ugly against, but they will continue to strike a certain behavior or attitude in us that God wants us not to become anymore until we change.  Change in the people he calls will help the change in the people who does not know God like they should, if they know him at all. This happens to people he calls and chooses for his purposes we sometimes don't understand and it is all for his glory.

Sometimes folks can't even see the things they could be doing wrong or like my husband, who innocently does things that isn't wrong but irritates me anyway. That can strike an attitude in me which is not necessary. Like blowing up because the dishes aren't washed when I get home from work. Impatience is my downfall!
God is looking for me to be patient because if I can master that than he will open up a world of blessings he's waiting to give.

The devil came to kill, steal and destroy what God wants to build up in us, things like family, love, patience, wisdom and so forth. Don't let him. The devil can use your adversary to destroy any possibility of them being saved through your love for them. Don't let him! They could still continue to be "Ugly"  even if you don't let them get to you, but you can be sure that treating them the way Jesus would, would show you did every possible thing you could to win them to Jesus. This is not the love you think you may have for them but the love you should have for them. Keep in mind that everything we do or don't do according to God, we still have to answer to when we meet Jesus.

You have a personality that God wants to use for his glory and he will use it to change your enemy if you let him. I know this because it happened to me.

God bless you!
