Are You Ready For Your Breakthrough Part 1a

By -

     Titus 1:4-5, "To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior. This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you."

     Paraphrase Paul left Titus in Crete so that he could create order out of the chaos there. Titus was the instrument that God intended to use to bring the Cretans Up, Out and Into Salvation with Jesus Christ. Titus had his work cut out for him since there was all kinds of ungodly behaviour there. 

     When was the last time you felt Order in your life? What does Order look like in your world? In God’s economy, order is a beautiful 5 letter word, P E A C E. 
     
     How can we find God’s PEACE and order amidst the chaos in our life? 

     To discover True peace, we’ve got some housework to do. Let's start in Phil 4:4-7 and grab a take-away by breaking it down:

Phil 4:4-7

Instructions:
  • Rejoice ALWAYS
  • Be Gentle; God is present
  • Do Not Be  anxious about anything
  • But In everything by prayer
  • With thanksgiving
  • Tell God what you need
Blessings:
  • AND THEN the Peace  which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus
  • Peace defined by Strong's: of Christianity, the tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and content with its earthly lot, of whatsoever sort that is.
     As we begin to follow this set of Instructions, we can expect and anticipate the Blessing of P E A C E  will naturally create Order in our life!

     Stay tuned, I will be posting Part 1b very soon. In that post, I will share how you can move Up and OUT of Chaos, Into Order and On-Towards your BREAKTHROUGH!

#UntilWeMeetAgain

 Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven, Dear One! 🩵🎂🎉🥳🎈🩵Oh, I can see your face clearly and hear your infectious giggle, Sheri 🩵💞💝💞🩵 What it must be like to dwell in the House of The Lord!! What it must be like to sing there!!! “What a Mighty God we serve, angels bow before the Mighty One we serve! Lord, You’re Mighty! Lord You’re Mighty! You are Awesome, Awesome!” Carpooling to our MK meetings together is really where our friendship began nearly 20 years ago. You were the perfect “partner in crime.” One who could fill my heart with joy while distracting me from deep grief after So Much Loss! One who could make me laugh again. You’d go anywhere with me to keep me above the struggle 💓 and it was always a party to be with you! 🥳 We’d be singing to the top of our lungs back and forth everywhere we went, back then! And I was in heaven when you got that Lexus with the sunroof that I had never had! You’d open up that roof, our voices rising to the Heavens, “My God is Awesome, Awesome, He

Don't Lose Heart IN the Process

     Coming away from the our 4th Annual Girlfriends Get-a-Way brings an altogether new prospective on this life God has called me to live.... away from Insecurity and Abandonment... praying to know the heart of God in others.... letting go of the past....  forgiving and living and being more intentional about it.... drinking in God's Goodness.... living by FAITH and TRUST to "Reap the Harvest He promised me.... Take back what the Devil stole from me.... I rejoice today for I shall recover it all."      Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.  But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."      God never promised me an easy road in this life; I'm continuing to learn how to "rouse myself up" to appreciate the working out of my Salvation in Christ especially in the difficulties that come.  The Question

Let's Talk about The Rivers

By -
     Rivers begin at a higher source and as Oswald Chambers is quick to point out, "A river touches places of which it's source knows nothing.... a river is victoriously persistent, it overcomes all barriers."  When a river flows into a deep canyon the canyon can become so narrow as to hide the river from site.  As it runs it's course through the canyon it picks up minerals from the boulders and various deposits that fall into it's waters.  These minerals become life giving nutrients.  Then the river breaks from the canyon and the water's velocity becomes smoother and wider.  Those minerals deposited in the canyon now offer nourishment to whatever it makes contact with.  The time spent overcoming the obstacle of the canyon is purposeful and meaningful long after enduring the stress it brings.       Our lives are quite similar.  When we keep our focus on our original Source the obstacles, boulders, and currents  we call "LIFE"  deposit spiritual wea
