It’s just a matter of time.
If God is the Head, and we are the body, who is going to do the turning around? (Col 2:9-10)
If God has given us the Keys of the Kingdom, given us His name, His authority, who will be doing the turning around? (Matt 16:19, Matthew 10:1, Luke 9:1)
If Jesus is seated, who is doing the waiting? (Hebrews 10:12)
When the focus becomes "God is going to do this,...
God is I AM. He HAS already empowered you to be salt [NOW], to be light [NOW], to SHINE [NOW], to live in the present, not for some “coming day.”

iamrevival:
I don’t know why, but I’m less excited about Christmas this year than before. I’m thankful Jesus came and freed us and all that. But the thing is, we’re supposed to be thankful 365 days in a year. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says “give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in…

Bad Mindsets.
These mindsets keep people in a perpetual state of crying out and begging for God to:
1.) do something He already did through Christ
2.) do something He told us to do
3.) not do something He won’t do (like send judgment on a nation for sin) because of the new covenant through Christ’s blood

if you have trouble doing this, it’s probably because you don’t actually know who you are.
A distinction.
The term “old covenant” is not the equivalent of the “old testament.”
“Old testament” is just a term scholars slapped on, to group together a bunch of rabbitical hebrew text.
A covenant is like a binding pact/agreement made by 2 parties. Historically, it was usually a stronger party making a pact with a weaker party. This agreement would last until the death...

I’ve heard people say ” show me your friends I’ll show you your future”. That may be true, but I think ” to invest in your friends is to invest in your future”. Not just your future, but the future of the world.

City transformation only happens because of personal transformation… starting with your neighbor. Starting at your workplace. Starting with your family, friends, relatives. Go. It’s easy…. once you know Who is with you. If you’re always in a place where you’re comfortable, that means you don’t actually need the Comforter. That’s a dangerous place to be.

When Christians walk on egg shells for fear of getting diseases.
By saying stuff like, “If you don’t eat vegetables you’ll get colon cancer,” you just gave yourself permission to get it if you fail to meet the requirements that YOU set. Why? Because your faith is in catching cancer if you don’t…

Where is your 'but'?
The sound of doubt: “I know what the Word says, BUT I’ve had this experience and that experience so……”
The sound of faith: “I know this has been my experience, BUT the Word says contrary so my experience WILL bow to the word.”

Thoughts on Humility
http://www.iamaspirit.org/archives/1407
Defined
I once heard Bill Johnson say, “Humility is preferring others.”
It’s just another way of saying, “Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less;” it’s preferring others. It’s putting others first. It’s thinking of others before thinking of yourself.
