A Good Word Is Not Always The Right Word!

1 Kings 22:11 (KJV)

11And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron: and he said, Thus saith the LORD, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have consumed them.

Too Often We Feel Validated When A Spoken Word Agrees With What We Want To Do!

God Sent a Lying Spirit in The Mouth of Ahab’s Handpicked Prophets…

Be careful that the sources of your listening are not limited to just friends…

Rather than listening to friends try praying for a word from God!

You may find your answer contradicting your wishes and your friends!

Unfortunately Ahab became the victim of his own making and thus died that day!

A Good Word Could Be Your Demise…

Now or Later?

Isaiah 45:23 (KJV)

23I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return,

That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Regardless of your rhetoric and many words and excuses!

Everyone will Bow their knee and submit their tongue, and swear their acceptance that God is all in all!

Now or Later?

Delayed Judgement Does Not Mean Judgement is Not Coming…

Be Not Fooled-

The “Pause’ Is Not A Change in Plan…

Doing It Willingly is Better than Doing It Wittingly!

Now or Later- You Chose

When Angels are Killed

Acts 6:15 (KJV)

15 And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.

• Reason does not always work

• Miracles do not always convince

• Truth does not not always liberate

And Sometimes Not Even The Face of An Angel…

Will change their opinion!

People Who Reject Truth Have a spirit on Them!

A spirit that they’ve accepted and now embrace…

Speak the Truth but Realize That Not Even the Anointed Stephen Could Change What They Had Set Their Heart On-

It Cost Him His Life That Day!

Keep Telling The Truth-

But Realize That the Reward Won’t Always Be Favorable…

Prospector’s Anonymous

Proverbs 16:27 (KJV)

27An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire.

Some People’s Idea of Good is Evil…

The Attributes of an Ungodly Person are Clear!

They Are Always Digging for Evil…

Not Only Their Own Evil But That of Others!

In a World Where “Whistle Blowing” is Admired-

Why Not Instead Dig and Find “Good”

And Be a Whistle Blower of Good Things?

Trust Me There Are Way More Prospectors of Evil

Than Those Who Are Digging for Good…

They Really Won’t Even Miss You!

Godly or Ungodly?

The Choice is Yours…

Lips on Fire or a Heart on Fire are quite different…

Better Than A Mighty Warrior

Proverbs 16:32 (KJV)

32 He that is slow to anger is (better) than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

• Feats of Strength Are Celebrated

• Victories Are Applauded

• Heros Are Marched Through the Streets

• Warriors Are Feared

But Better Than All of That-

• Is a Man That is Slow to Anger

• Is a Man That Ruleth His Spirit

Self Control is Better Than Self Accomplishments…

Self Control is Often Underrated and Overlooked

Because the Spotlight is On What We Do

Rather Than What we Don’t Do…

Wisdom is Knowing

When to Keep Silent

And Ruling Your spirit…

Fully Trusting God

1 Samuel 17:45 (KJV)

45Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

Trust in God Is When You Bring a Sling and 5 smooth stones to a Battlefield!

Trust is in the passion of what’s right!

Complete Trust?

Mark 4:41 (KJV)

41And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

Peace on a Stormy Night

Is Not In The Present Circumstance

But Is the confidence In Who Holds The Circumstances in His Hand!

The Storm is Only As Powerful as Your Fear!

Trusting God Means

I Can’t Fix It…
