Thy Will Be Done

At some point in your life you will reach a crossroad. One road will be what YOU want to do and the other will be what God wants you to do. You’re going to have to decide what’s best. Yes, you already know that God’s way will always be the best way even if you can see from where you are that His way may involve winding roads, dark lonely forests, and a few mountains to climb. And you already know that God’s way will always be the best way even if you can tell that your way is a straight and easy shot.

But I’m here to tell you, those straight and easy shots aren’t really as easy as they may seem. Those straight and easy shots typically will cause the most pain believe it or not. Going the way you want to go will force you to deal with pain all by yourself. God won’t be as close to you to help you as He would be if you took His way. Because you’ve imposed your free will on His will and thus rendered Him powerless in your own pursuits.

I hate to admit it, but your way will end in disappointment. You might have a few triumphs here and there but at the end of it all my friends, the result is the same. So when will you agree with what God wants you to do? When you take the hands off of the mouth of your spirit so that it can say, “THY WILL BE DONE.”?

I find it funny that all those times I tried to avoid God’s way I could have just taken His way and saved myself some time and avoided the heartache and pain associated with my terrible way! That’s what I’m talking about people. It is the THY WILL BE DONE that will put you in a good place. The THY WILL BE DONE will require some sacrifices but it will set you up for a more prosperous and fulfilling God-led life.

Deuteronomy 28:1-6
“And if you faithfully obey the voice of the Lord your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the Lord your God. Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground and the fruit of your cattle, the increase of your herds and the young of your flock. Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. Blessed shall you be when you come in and blessed shall you be when you come out.”

You’ve been riding down this road long enough and now that you’re at this crossroad you see a billboard. I just showed you that billboard with Deuteronomy 28:1-6. In this situation, GOD’S WAY IS THE BEST WAY. Jesus went through a hell of a lot down here on this Earth with us and He reached a crossroad too. He had a choice, bear the cross and die for us or leave the cross and die WITH US. That’s it and that’s all folks.

You might be thinking, yo, I have to die though? The answer is YES! You have to leave everything with YOUR name on it and let it die and take everything that will actively endorse the will of God. You can’t go wrong! My pastor likes to say this, “If I follow God’s way and it doesn’t work, I’m putting it on Him!” Well we all know that will NEVER happen.  His way WILL WORK!

Accept the declaration TODAY to choose GOD’S WAY. Receive the revelation that all things will work together to them who love the Lord. Make this confession on behalf of all you’ve been through and all the people who are close to you that will benefit from your decision, here it is, “Not my will, but THY WILL BE DONE.” Let the church say AMEN!

Strawberry Crush

Have you ever developed a crush for someone? How did you feel? How did you respond to this feeling? Did you challenge it? Did you explore it? Did it ever go away?  I remember my first crush. I was in first grade when I met Calvin. He was the cutest light bright I'd ever seen. My teacher caught on and would actually allow us to sit together. We would enjoy our innocent times, him making me laugh and me sharing my snacks. I loved him before I even knew what love was. But Calvin was a bad boy. He got in trouble a lot. I would take up for him too. But one day I would not be able to see him again because he moved away and transferred to another school. My heart was torn in half as I would miss him for a while.  That was about 24 years ago. Since then I've had a few crushes. None of them really went anywhere but to a disappointing dead end. Which has provoked me to seek understanding of what does "having a crush," really mean. In all honesty, having a crush on so...

The Effectual Fervent Prayer

I am convinced that there is no such thing as an unanswered prayer. I believe I’ve touched on this before in an earlier post. But I’ve received some new revelations to add to my case. 2 Corinthians 1:20 For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God. So does this mean that every prayer we send up, God says “Yes” to? Well, I must inform you, that it’s a little more complicated than that. Yet, it’s  not at all hard to understand. There is a three part transaction in this entire process. First we have OUR PRAYERS. Second, we have GOD’S PROMISES. Third, we have THE AMEN.” Yo, I’m so excited to explain this in full!  YOUR PRAYERS: The desires and issues of your heart are the language behind your prayers. Whatever interferences your heart experiences (that rhymes! Lol) determines the kind of prayer that you lift up to God. God will ALWAYS answer the prayer. Th...

When A Man Findeth...

  Proverbs 18:22  "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord." Current mood: I have some splendid news! Last week one of my colleagues was inspired to restart her blog after almost 4 years! I'd been trying to get her to do this since we'd met. Nothing like picking up something you left behind and realizing it's one of the things that you've always needed.  That sounds like a word. Then one of my homeboys called me on Valentine's day and solicited my wisdom for proposing to his long time girlfriend. He was a little nervous about what her response might be. I basically told him that he needed to prepare himself more to be emotionally and mentally available for her once they say, "I do." As opposed to trying to brace himself for rejection. I also informed him that marriage does nothing but magnify what has and hasn't been dealt with prior to a couples' nuptials and exposes anything that...
