"CHURCH IS WORSHIP"

CHURCH IS WORSHIP

The Place church begins isn't at church but at home.

It is the family.
It is the heart of the Father demonstrated in the love you have.

Do you see your family as a worship team?
Is you family developing a time together as worshipers?

They say that the family that prays together stays together;
but we all know that isn't true.

FOR SOME IT HELPS.

But a family that worships together is a force to be reckoned.

Singing, clapping, laughing, smiling, sharing the joy of the Lord.
God Delights in the Family that finds this Mystery He made families for.

You may have never have realized this before;
but in Heaven the Home that is there is all about worship.

And the Churches are but lamp-stands in the family of God Almighty.

CHURCH IS WORSHIP

But it begins and Ends in the Home.

" WHY GO TO CHURCH?"

WHY GO TO CHURCH?

Well...... 

frankly you don't have to.

YOU CAN STAY HOME.

YOU CAN WATCH GOLF OR FOOTBALL...

There is no "law" saying you "have to" go to church.

(No matter what anyone tells you or tries to interpret for you.

No offense to "pressure or pleasing" churches but;

if you don't want to go....,

DON"T GO TO CHURCH

Let me know how that works out for ya......

I can tell you why I GO TO CHURCH.

For you.

I go because I miss you. 

I like people and though I may not have verbal intercourse with them;

I do see you face and the people you "hang with" or "talk to";

and as weird as this sounds.....

Your company encourages me; and I am there to encourage others so I go to church because I miss you.

I also go to Church to Bless You.

You see I know more than I let on and God lets me know more than I can say and when I see your eyes I know whats going on with you because God tells me.........

SO I PRAY SILENTLY FOR YOU.

Why?

Well that's silly; because I love you.

That's why I go to church;

because I love to, I love you and I love him.

I go because of Love.

I Love It.

"GOD WANTS US TO THINK"

GOD WANTS US TO THINK

It is true without faith it is impossible to please Him;
but gave us a brain and He wants us to think.

WE CHOOSE WHAT WE THINK ABOUT;
but faith is not the absence of thought;
it is the conclusion of a rationale mind.

Faith can be the most logical conclusion in your life;
if God is in your equation.

Blind faith is belligerent
Assertive Faith is dictatorial.

Faith is faith.

Not thinking will you realize pretty fast;

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU PUT YOUR FAITH IN;
or who.

"GOD USES ANYONE"

GOD USES ANYONE

You learn if you live long enough;
God can use anyone top speak to you.

He can and has in the Old Testament
used those who were not walking with Him;
to speak to those who were.

The same is true today.

Don't reject someone who might be used by God to help you;
Government, person, church or even some enemy you once had.

SOMETIMES BEING HELPED
is a great healing method God uses on your pride.

Don't be surprised if you help comes from the Lord;
but thru the least likely person, place or thing;

you would have imagined.

" A HOAX WAS POSTED"

LATE LAST WEEK A HOAX WAS POSTED

The Full Story Here: http://global.christianpost.com/news/joel-osteen-resigns-a-hoax-pastor-attacked-with-false-statement-93453/

I re-posted part of the hoax as a "lead in" to this article.

WHAT ARE YOU READY TO BELIEVE IN?

The Post was about Joel Osteen having a "crisis of faith" and resigning which any "man of God" can tell you does in fact happen to every Man of God without exception because we have no faith unless it is tested.

Some actually do "fall away" "do a prodigal" "take a sabbatical" "fast and pray" or in some way do some soul searching.

Even Jesus did this in the Garden of Gethsemane.

SO THE FACT OF CRISIS could have been actual.

The post was hoax.

Interesting enough the HOAX is a good lesson for you and I.

HOW DID YOU REACT TO THE NEWS?

I found some interesting remarks by some people who varied from rejoicing to outright ungodly statements about a Man of God.
(#Note I am not endorsing Joel Osteen I am stating a fact: He is a Man of God and as such is accountable to God).

Oddly as I read the letter I was sad. My first reaction was the Jim Bakker PTL CLUB thoughts that though the man failed the ministry had succeeded in many salvation and people getting to know Jesus.

I thought about Joel and said a quick prayer while I looked for sources to validate the claim.

OBVIOUSLY THE POST WAS FALSE and that was soon easy to tell.

The post also reminded me of the MANY MANY POSTS I tell people are "FALSE" and they get upset.

They have 're-posted' some 'nice idea' they got on the Internet and found on Facebook and often react emotionally to being told their post is false in some way.

AND THEY DON'T LIKE THE TRUTH OF IT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO BELIEVE IN WHAT THEY POSTED

Most people I tell "FALSE" to I know they know better.

They are normal what most would say "good" people on the outside and just played a little "gossip" of "flesh test" without really thinking about it.

BUT THE DAMAGE POSTS CAN DO ARE MEASURED DIRECTLY by the words Jesus said and the goals that should be in our life.

TRUTH.

"...and every idle word man shall speak shall be held accountable to him"

ATTITUDE often is revealed by words; but not always. Transference occurs a lot on FACEBOOK and the INTERNET when a person reads a post in a bad attitude then "PROJECTS" that attitude to the post they are reading or the comment.

THEY SEE what they are FEELING INSIDE.

Another interesting thing about FACEBOOK and REPOSTS is people don't read the post but only "REVIEW" the title.

BASED ON THE TITLE, they will then pass on fact, fallacies, lies, spam, ads, viruses, slander, things they may not do in public, but thinking they are in private, redistribute information they are accountable for.....,

THAT ACCORDING TO RESEARCH more than 50% never read.

WHAT ARE YOU READY TO BELIEVE IN?

Is it the Truth? or just something......

YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IN?

"AGE IS NOT MATURITY"

AGE IS NOT MATURITY
Getting older does not make a person mature.

But Maturation should produce maturity
if we willing to quit acting like a child and be a man.

Or a Woman.

Ages in Life have a process of development to them.
Some call the Terrible Two's for the nature of a child at that age.

THE SAME IS TRUE IN ADULTS.
Being older just makes you older.

Is not mean you are mature.
Nor does in ensure adulthood.

Many Men and Woman revert to childish ways
and are not mature in their faith.

As you go thru life you are meant to grow thru life.

GOD's NOT INTERESTED IN BOY"S TOY'S OR CARNAL JOYS
He's interested inf you are invested in the means he employs to mature you.

It's time you grow up into Him in all things.

Man caves are not for serious business with God
and Man Talk has never yet been about being an Adult.

WHEN YOU WANT MATURITY YOU TURN TO THE WORD OF GOD.
then go out and do it to reveal who and what you are.

YOUR AGE IS NOT YOUR MATURITY;

but your Faith is.

"One Word"

ONE WORD

That word doesn't have to be "Jesus";
but one word can make or break a relationship.

The Power you have is not a declarative capability;
but an emotive application.

You can't Kill with a word or create by speaking;
but you can Murder a soul and sacrifice a feeling.

A word from you can make a person's day;
or ruin years of person's experience with you.

Choose your words wisely we are told;
for "IN THEM" are life, not that they are life.

Words are words,
but how we use them determines their impact.

"Sticks and stone may break my bones;
but words will kill what's in me"

One Word.
One Thought.
One Action.

It really is up to you;
which direction that word will go.

My one word I choose to do daily is:

INSPIRE.

"THEN SHALL WE KNOW"

THEN SHALL WE KNOW 
if we follow on to know the Lord:

his going forth is prepared as the morning;

and he shall come unto us as the rain,
as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

MAYBE you don't look for the Lord Today;
But I do.

I seek to find some subtle way He reveals himself to me;
even as gently He speaks to me in the morning
and walks to me on the rays of the dawn.

OH YEAH.

I expect to Hear from God today;
as Much as I expect to see Him today.

I am not content with the Day unless I do.

Thousands may do a thousand other things;
but between you and me;

I WAIT ON THE LORD.

"The Life of Faith"

THE LIFE OF FAITH
is not a picnic table and a barbecue;
where the only issue you face is ants.

Faith is when you really don't know what to do;
and you do it anyways;
because at some point in time God said so.

Faith is never about the results;
it's all about the process.

THAT MOMENT YOU CHOOSE
to ignore the feelings and the facts;
that all say not to do what God has said to do.

If it was easy it wasn't faith.

Faith is a supernatural act in the most natural of worlds;
and the exercise of spiritual reality in the practicalities of life.

Faith costs.

WILL YOU PAY THE PRICE?

GOOD MORNING CHRISTIAN: "SEE YOUR SOUL" -Michael James Stone

SEE YOUR SOUL HAS A REFLECTION OF YOUR LIFE

Picture a Pond; a lake with mountains surrounding it.
When the Water is like glass it is a perfect reflection of the mountains.

Now drop a pebble in that pond.
The ripple effect will distort the reflection.

What you let into your soul is the pebble;
your emotions cause the ripple effect.

"Thou will keep Him in Perfect Peace;
whose Mind is Stayed on thee"

You can be a perfect reflection of God today;
even if for a moment, or an hour or a day.

But make no mistake.

Your emotions cast your soul from reflection of God's Peace;
to distraction of your reactions.

Today if you can, think of this as David said.

I HAVE STILLED AND QUIETED MY SOUL.

If you do;

Your Pond will return to Peace;
as you learn to be still and know God.

"Who Loves You?"

 

 

 

"MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE,

AND I KNOW THEM,

AND THEY FOLLOW ME"

John 10:27

 

 

 

 

What This is about is Personal.

It is my Personal Relationship and Response to Jesus.

It is about the Way I relate to Jesus and How He Communicates to Me. It is not an uncommon experience, but it is one that is Unique and Distinctive to God because He did it. I merely responded to what He did to me. This should be common to all men and could be.

 

VidDevo is Testimony.

 

It is the personal experience of God related in an intimate and personal way about what Jesus wants to communicate to me and through me for others as well as for my self. It is life experiences. It is Testimony. It is real. It is live. None of it is exaggerated. It is my devotional life as I live it in Video: VidDevo.

 

VidDevo is Personal.

 

It is about You. It is about Me. We are relating Jesus to each other by Video but communicating to each other as the Spirit of God makes real what fits in your life the same way he does for me. And it may not be the same thing. It is God speaking. It doesn't matter how He does. It is personal to you and Him, just as it is personal to He and I. God speaks thru VidDevo to each individual person; personally.

VidDevo is Real.

It is life. It is daily. It is about what happens to me and as much as possible what affects you as I see it happening to you. It is the response of a Man of God with God in success and failure, in happiness and sorrow, in all aspects of life and living it. It is not reality video, but the reality of God manifest in the flesh, mine, as I relate to God in all I am doing. It is God in me as Jesus said He would be and is. He is real, I am not.
