It's Like A Jar Of Salad Dressing Sitting On A Shelf... Most Of The Seasoning Settles To The Bottom Of The Bottle. But When You Shake That Bottle Up, All The Ingredients Mix Together And Then The Dressing Can Add Flavor To A Salad. In The Same Way, We Can Stir Ourselves Up And Regain The Reverence, Respect And Awe We Once Had For The Lord.

I Want To Look My Best For God. So Many People Have The Attitude That If You're A Christian You've Got To Dress Bad, Wear An Old Color, Not Do Anything To Your Hair, Have Nothing.

The Term Revolution Means: A Sudden, Radical, And Complete Change From The Way Things Are Normally Done. I Love That Definition Because I Really Feel That In Order For Us To Start Walking In The Kind Of Love That Christ Commanded Us To - The "love Your Neighbor As Yourself" Kind - It's Going To Take A Radical Change In Our Current Behavior. The Church Has Become Passive And Selfish And It's Going To Take A Revolution To Get Us Back To The Place Where We Are Not Just Talking The Talk, But Walking In A Love That Shows The World Christ's Love.

God Doesn't Do Things Halfway. He Goes All Out! When God Does Something, It's Not Just Barely Enough, Mediocre Or Lukewarm.

Yes, God Does Expect Us To Live Holy, Consecrated Lives. But Not Even The Best Of Our Intentions Can Make It Happen. Thankfully, He Doesn't Expect Us To Make Ourselves Holy. He Just Wants Us To Learn To Depend On Him To Make Us Holy.

It's Just Human Nature To Try And Figure Things Out. So, When We're In The Midst Of A Situation, We Usually Try To Reason Our Way Through It.

We All Have Two Lives: An Inner Life And An Outer Life. Your Inner Life Is Your Soul Life, Which Includes Your Mind, Will And Emotions. Your Outer Life Is Your Physical Life. And While God Cares About Every Detail Of Your Life, He Is More Concerned With Your Inner Life Than Your Outer Life.

Forgiveness Is Nothing More And Nothing Less Than An Act Of Self-healing-an Act Of Self-empowermen T.

I Always Asked For Forgiveness For My Sins Right Away But I Never Accepted It Until I Felt Right That I Had Suffered Enough To Pay For It. God Revealed To Me What I Was Doing How Much Unnecessary Pain I Was Causing Myself. He Even Showed Me That What I Was Doing Was An Insult To Jesus That In Essence I Was Saying Lord The Sacrifice Of Your Life And Blood Was Good But Not Good Enough. I Must Add My Work Of Feeling Guilty Before I Can Be Forgiven.

Freedom Is Not Letting Your Yesterday Affect Your Today.

Forgiveness Is Not A Feeling - It's A Decision We Make Because We Want To Do What's Right Before God.

Decisions We Make

Spending Time With God Through Prayer And His Word Is A Prerequisite For Having A Great Life And Fulfilling Your Purpose.

I Used To Let Other People's Struggles Affect My Happiness. If They Weren't Happy, There Was No Way I Was Going To Be Happy. The Opposite Was Also True: If I Wasn't Happy, I Didn't Want Anyone Around Me To Be Happy.

Unhappiness Comes When You Try To Be Like Everyone Else Rather Than Embracing The Unique Person That You Are.

When We Trust God More Than Our Feelings, It Confuses The Devil. I Mean, When He Throws You His Best Shot And He Can't Budge You From Believing God, He Won't Know What To Do With You Anymore.

Start Believing The Word Of God Over Our Feelings. The Truth Always Overrides Our Feelings. Find The Truth In The Scriptures.

We Cannot Stand Through The Storms Of Life Based On Someone Else's Faith. We Must Be Fully Assured In Our Own Hearts And Minds.

Integrity Means That You Are The Same In Public As You Are In Private.

Anything That God Wants You To Have, There's No Devil In Hell And No Person On Earth That Can Keep You From Having It If You Just Won't Quit And Give Up.

God Has Blessed Me In Many Ways. Money Is Not The Greatest Blessing You Can Have, But I Literally Had Absolutely Nothing. The First Message That I Preached At Life In The Word, I Had To Borrow A Suit From My Pastor's Wife, Because I Didn't Have Any Decent Clothes, And I Was Driving A 20-year-old Car. We Went Through A Lot Of Years Of Having Nothing, Sleeping In Mcdonald's Parking Lots, Because We Didn't Have Money To Stay All Night In A Hotel. But, Like Anybody Else Who Works Hard And Is Diligent And Doesn't Quit And Doesn't Give Up, There Is A Day The Blessings Come.

I Firmly Believe That Usually, The Person Who Hurt You Doesn't Realize What They've Done Or How Much It Hurt You. So, Continue To Pray For The Person Or Situation That Caused Your Pain And Anger. Ask God To Give You Understanding About Why They Did What They Did.

When You Focus On How Wonderful God Is And All The Great Things He's Done... Is Doing... And Even Will Do In Your Life, Your Natural Response Will Be Praise, Adoration And Awe. Don't Let Yourself Ever Get Used To It... Stay Amazed!

Why Is It That Although It Takes Us Years To Get Into Our Messes, We Expect God To Get Us Out Of Them In A Few Days?

I've Been Saying For A Couple Of Years Now That People Need To Let God Out Of The Sunday Morning Box, That He Doesn't Want To Just Be With You For An Hour Or Two On Sunday Morning And Then Put Back In His Box To Sit There Until You Have An Emergency, But He Wants To Invade Your Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, And Sunday.

Forgiveness Is Manifested Mercy; It Is Live In Action - Not Love Based On A Feeling, But Love Based On A Decision, An Intentional Choice To Obey God.

Too Often We Spend Our Time In The Past Or The Future. We Need To Learn To Live Now - Mentally As Well As Physically And Spiritually.

God Doesn't Do Good Things For Us Because We Are Good And We Deserve Them. He Does Good Things For Us Because He Is Good And Loves Us.

Lord, What If I Miss You? What If I Miss You? What If I Miss You? Oh, I'm So Scared! God, What If I Miss You? He Answered Simply, "joyce, Don't Worry; If You Miss Me, I Will Find You.

If You Can Help A Child, You Don't Have To Spend Years Repairing An Adult.

Just Because You Go To Church Doesn't Mean You're A Christian. I Can Go Sit In The Garage All Day And It Doesn't Make Me A Car

If You Are A Believer Married To An Unbeliever I Want To Tell You That The Greatest Witness That You Can Be To Them Is To Try To Be The Same All The Time. Don't Let The Way They Act Control You. Dave Didn't Let My Actions Control Him. He Stayed Happy, And That Just Made Me Madder, Because Unhappy People Just Want To Make Other People Unhappy, But It Finally Broke Through To Me That He's Got A Stability And A Joy And A Peace That I Did Not Have.

Do What's Right, First. Don't Sit Around And Wait For Someone Else To Do The Right Thing First.

The Absence Of Pain Means Death, So When Something No Longer Bothers You, You've Died To That Thing.

Battles Are Fought In Our Minds Every Day. When We Begin To Feel The Battle Is Just Too Difficult And Want To Give Up, We Must Choose To Resist Negative Thoughts And Be Determined To Rise Above Our Problems. We Must Decide That We're Not Going To Quit. When We're Bombarded With Doubts And Fears, We Must Take A Stand And Say: "i'll Never Give Up! God's On My Side. He Loves Me, And He's Helping Me! I'm Going To Make It!"

Unconditional Love

Set Your Mind That No Matter What Is Going On In Your Life, You Will Have A Good Attitude.

Extremely Religious, Legalistic People Have A Criticism Or Judgment About Everyone And Everything. They Just Have A Way Of Bringing People Down With What They Say.

We Open The Door For God To Work By Placing Faith In His Word, And We Open The Door For Satan To Work By Placing Faith In His Word. He Places Thought In Our Minds That Are Not True, But Can Become True For Us If They Are Believed.

I Think A Lot Of People Believe That They Have To Be Poor To Serve God, That They Can't Have Anything. They Don't Really Even Know How To Give. And One Of The Main Principles In The Bible Is You'll Reap What You Sew, And That If You Give Into The Lives Of Others, That It Shall Be Given Back To You, Good Measure, Pressed Down And Shaken Together. If You Go Plant One Tomato Seed, You Don't Get Back One Tomato; You Get A Vine Of Tomatoes.

The More Positive You Are, The Powerful Youll Be.

If You're Gonna Be Free, You Gotta Stop Caring What Everyone Thinks.

There's A Deceptive Sin That Can Keep Us From Walking In Love: Pride. It's Deceptive Because When You Have Pride, You're Usually Too Proud To Admit It. I Know This Because I Used To Have Teachings On Pride And They Didn't Sell Well.

There Are A Lot Of 'chicken Christians.' Chickens Are Generally Afraid Of Life, And They Seldom Fly Or Reach Their Potential In Life. And When A Storm Comes, All They Seem To Do Is Flap Around The Chicken Yard, Stirring Up Dirt And Running To The Chicken House.

If We Do Our Best, God Will Do The Rest.

Go Beyond What You Feel Like Doing And Do What's Right. Every Time You Do What's Right When You Don't Feel Like It, You Are Growing.

Is Your Problem Really Your Problem, Or Is It Your Attitude Towards The Problem That's Your Problem?

Having Everything Your Way Is Highly Overrated.

I Pray While Driving. I Pray While Working, And While Relaxing.

I Have Learned God Doesn't Always Change Those People We Want Him To Change; Instead, He Often Uses Them To Change Us.

When We Are Overly Concerned With What People Think We Will Be Controlled By The Thoughts And Opinions Of Other People.

There Are Times When God Leaves Huge Question Marks As Tools In Our Lives To Stretch Our Our Faith.

The Devil Will Give Up When He Sees That You Are Not Going To Give In.

We Can Get Excited By Thinking About What All We Have Or Can Have, Or We Can Get Discouraged By Thinking About What All We Don't Have.

Prayer Doesn't Just Change Things - It Changes Us. If We Are Diligent In Seeking God, Slowly And Surely We Become Better People.

If We Spend Enough Time With God, He'll Either Make Us Strong Enough That Problems Won't Bother Us, Or He'll Show Us What To Do About Them.

When Jesus Comes To Live In Our Hearts, The Seed Of Holiness Is Planted.

Many People Say “my Life Stinks”. Well, Your Life Will Stink If You Spend Today Thinking About Tomorrow.

In Christ, It's Never Too Late, You're Never Too Old... It's Never "too Anything" For Him To Work Positive Change In Your Life.

God Has Done So Much In My Life, And My Desire Is To Help Others Who Are Hurting To Receive His Love And Get The Healing They Need - Mentally, Emotionally And Spiritually. I Know The Word Works And Total Restoration Is Possible In Christ Because I've Experienced It Myself.

Without Joy In Your Life You Are Powerless.

Watch Out For The Joy-stealers: Gossip, Criticism, Complaining, Faultfinding, And A Negative, Judgmental Attitude.

People Always Want To Know How You Know. And Knowing In Your Heart Is Very Hard To Describe. I Think So Often, We're Trying To Understand Something With Our Mind. But, Actually, The Bible Teaches Us That Much Of What God Does In Our Life Will Be Difficult To Understand With The Mind.

I Believe That People Need To Get Their Worth And Value From Knowing That God Loves Them. I Believe That All Healing In Our Inner Man And Even, We Know Christ Also Heals People's Physical Diseases, But The Bible Says He Heals Our Wounds And Bruises. Don't Worry About What's Wrong With You Right Now, God Accepts You Just The Way You Are And He Will Help You Be What He Wants You To Be.

If You Are Facing A New Challenge Or Being Asked To Do Something That You Have Never Done Before Don’t Be Afraid To Step Out. You Have More Capability Than You Think You Do But You Will Never See It Unless You Place A Demand On Yourself For More.

Don't Allow Yourself To Be Upset And Disturbed. Hold Your Peace Because Without It You Have No Power.
