YOu might be floundering right now,  and wandering if you even have a purpose in life and if you are ever going to  amount to anything. You look at your marriage and it is in shambles. Your kids are rebelling, and you may lose your job.

God has a purpose for your life if you will just trust Him.

Romans 10:13 says, "For whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

In Matthew 6 I believe Jesus instructs His followers to strive to forgive those who have wronged them. H even claims that if you can learn to forgive others, that it will enable God to forgive you of your sins. However, if you refuse to forgive people their trespasses, God will not forgive yours.

I'm not saying that if you have any ounce of unforgiveness towards anyone that God will refuse to forgive you.

However, if you have bitterness and unforgiveness in your heart towards anyone, God will hold you accountable for the same things you judge in others and he there will be areas in your life where God may not extend His grace for a period.

So, I challenge you today, forgive all those who have hurt you.

Therein lies your key to walk in purpose and fulfillment.

Maybe you have never accepted the  gift of salvation which Christ offers you.

If you will repent of your sins, and "that if you will "confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9)


Maybe your looking for something to devote yourself to today that will help you feel accomplished, provide income, provide for you family, and help feed malnourished children.

Beauty In The Trials

Beauty In The Trials

You might be wondering, “Well how do all the trials I am facing prepare me for my purpose tomorrow?” As a believer in Christ, each of us has a special set or group of gifts to which we have been blessed with through Christ. Every human being is born with a special set of unique characteristics and gifts that he can use to benefit humanity. In Ephesians 4, we read of how each believer in Christ has been granted grace by being given a gift or gifts in the Holy Spirit to benefit the body of Christ. Every believer in Christ has been endowed with these special gifts so that he can build up the body of Christ through works of service to minister to the needs of the body of Christ and to lost, broken humanity. This is why Jesus told us what the greatest commandment was in Matthew 22:37-39, “’Love The Lord Your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” I remember, I used to read this passage nonchalantly and did not realize what it meant. I did not see how it applied to purpose.

What I have realized in my journey of purpose is that God has allowed me to pass through a journey filled with many trials, yet He has not allowed me to go through it helpless. As I mentioned earlier, God has given each of us gifts. Now, why in the world would God give us gifts and abilities if he did not provide us opportunities to exercise those gifts and develop our spiritual muscles? God wants his children to first love God with all of their hearts, but then he does not want them to stop there. God wants us to put our love into action by using our gifts and abilities to benefit the body of Christ and also the lost, broken, and dying world. God calls us as His children to express our love for Him and others by ministering to and meeting the needs of the people we come into contact with.

God allowed me to go through my journey of purpose so that I would first learn to completely trust in Him to find my purpose. He also wanted to teach me that in my life, He wants me to take the hurts, issues of anger, unforgiveness, bitterness, and sorrow and be freed of them through forgiveness. Only once I was able to truly walk in freedom of the issues of the past hurts or failures was I able to begin to use God’s gifts for my life to benefit others. I also learned through my trials how to be patient, how to endure much suffering, how to choose joy in the suffering, and thus I gained a much greater appreciation for the life God has blessed me with. Now, eight years later, after going through all the fire, I can walk into the purpose God has for me.

I have had to learn that daily I must directly face the issues I struggle with. I have had to express to those people who have hurt me, how their pain has made me feel pain. Through expressing myself in this way and talking through the hurts and offenses I have been able to go to Father God and pray to forgive the individuals who have hurt me and truly release them. I have realized that through expressing the issues of pain with the individuals or with someone else, and sometimes through simply writing these hurts down on paper, I have been able to truly pray to the Father and forgive and release them in my heart. Thus I can truly fulfill God’s greatest ommandment by loving Him and loving others by using the gifts God has blessed me with by ministering to the needs of others. Thus, I have found my true purpose and daily, though not always perfectly, I have learned to walk in my purpose.

Maybe for you, you might be going through or have gone through  similar physical or emotional  problems or series of events in your life and you do not know how to make sense of all the trials you are facing or have had to face. Nothing makes sense to you, and you do not feel like forgiving anyone right now, especially after that certain individual or those individuals did that terrible thing to you, and left you feeling devastated. You do not feel as if you could ever forgive him/her for what they did to you. You feel as if you were completely innocent and undeserving of the emotional or physical harm that you feel was caused.

You also feel right now like you are an outsider looking in at all the world around you. You do not feel like anybody understands you or wants to speak to you. You feel all alone and miserable inside. You feel hopeless and isolated from the world. Daily you may struggle with depression and anxiety. You feel as if the only reason you are alive is to exist or simply pay the bills or try to make an effort every day to drive to work and perform the same functions everyday, just so at the end of the week you get our pay check.

I remember feeling much the same way as all the scenarios I Have described above. I felt hopeless, alone, afraid, and isolated. I felt as if the world did not want to listen to anything I had to say. I felt terrified to speak to anyone unless they spoke to me. My world seemed as if it was caving in on a daily basis. I felt as if I had gone through some of the worst physical and emotional storms on earth, and nobody understood or could understand me. I remember daily waking up with no joy or peace in life. I had to swallow the fact that I might be physically debilitated for life. I struggled with the thought that I might not ever have normal, flowing relatinoships with family and friends.

Yet there came a time when I realized I had to change. I began my journey of forgiveness. I pushed past the discomfort and I disciplined myself to forgive and walk out my forgiveness. Only then was I freed from the hopelessness and misery. Only once I forgave was I given a clearer sense of my purpose and calling. Only then was I able to walk in fulfillment and confidence that I would soon be able to fully walk into my purpose as a born again child of God. Once I had dealt with the hurts and issues of the past I was able to step into my purpose and I began seeing amazing things happen. God began opening doors for me like never before. I realized that the 7 or 8 years of my journey of trials and hardship had been used to mold and shape my Spirit into something far better than what I had ever been. I began to see God’s beauty was being formed in me.

This is my prayer for you as you read this book and apply the truths that I learned in my journey. I hope these truths and principles will be used to shape you as you journey into your true purpose and identity. 

I want you to realize that your freedom from all the baggage you carry, all the lies you believe, and all the hopelessness you feel lies in dealing with the issues of your heart.

Your key to walking in the fullness of your purpose, getting a clear direction in life, and finding fulfillment and peace in this life of uncertainty lies in your being able to truly love others by coming to a place of forgiveness towards all who have hurt you, despised you, or rejected you. You will not be able to truly walk in a manner which is free of fear, guilt, anger, or sadness unless you first deal with those areas of darkness (past hurt, anger, sadness) in your own heart.

The Question of Love

            I want to ask you something; “Do you truly want to love others unconditionally and love those whom you come into contact with?

You cannot truly love others until you first learn to love yourself.

You truly learn to love yourself by dealing with the issues of he heart that have bothered you for years. All those things that others (family, friends, etc.) have done in the past to hurt you intentionally or unintentionally, you have to forgive those things in your inner self in order to truly love yourself and truly be able to love others.

Greater is He that is in You

There was a time in past history when the world was chaos. In the little city of Geneva, John Calvin and a few others decided they were going to make a difference. Him and a few men decided the city of Geneva no longer needed to remain the most wicked city of that time. Geneva was the Las Vegas of that time.

So what did they do? They began praying. They began evangelizing and reforming the city one person at a time. Before you knew it, the city of Geneva was won over to Christ. And the Great reformation began. This sparked one of the greatest revivals the world has ever known.

Much of Europe was impacted by the Great Reformation, and many souls since then have been impacted.

Where did it start? It started when John Calvin chose to make a difference and choose to impact others for Christ.

Hopeless people found hope in Jesus. Jesus looks at us in our hopeless situations and He gives us hope. In Romans 5, we read of how the hope we can have in Christ "never disappoints."

I know for me, 8 years ago, I was hopeless. I was paralyzed and thought my life of normalcy was done. I was told that I would have to go to a special school for the disabled.

But, what did God say? My hope was in Jesus Christ, and He never disappoints.

In 1 John 4:4, we read that "Greater is He (Jesus) than he that is in the world."
Every battle in my life, every battle in your life has no comparison to the Greatness of Jesus Christ.

This past week I saw at Jesus Culture Los Angeles, how people would pray for those in wheelchairs and the paralyzed walked out of those chairs.

Jesus is pointing His finger at you right now, and He says, "What are you waiting on? I came to this earth, died an humiliating and painful death for you so that you might have the life John 10:10 talks about, where Jesus claims,

^"10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

Believe in Jesus today, except His love,  and be set free from your sin! Find hope, Find Peace!

Rescued From Death from A THopeless Car Accident

At the first sight of our vehicle, anybody would have thought that a tragedy had happened. One look at the heap of metal which once was a rodeo, would have left anyone breathless and probably in tears. Yet, it is in the most hopeless situations in life that the love and grace of God will show up and he can begin to work miracles. The first miracle happened when the semi smashed into the gas tank, which was directly behind me, and did not explode.

Not only was I in this accident that affected me physically, but it the very core of my spiritual life was turned upside down. Everything which I knew to be real and of any value or meaning seemed as if it were shattered. My view of normalcy was completely rendered the opposite of normal. I had just been reading in Ezekiel that very week. I was amazed at how God saw Ezekiel in his darkest hour and breathed life into him.-??? Little did I know that days later, God would see me in my darkest hour and breathe life into me.

 

Isn't this amazing how God looks down at us at our lowest point and rescues us. God looks down from heaven at whatever low point you may find yourself in and he calls out to you, "I'll help you, but you have to trust me."

After I came out of my 40 day coma, I had to trust God that He would heal me and allow me to return to a normal life.

 

I prayed so many days. So many people prayed. God answered and today I am nearly fully recovered, run every other day, and go to Liberty University.

 

What do you need to trust God for today? Are you even trusting Him at all?

He will reach down and save you if you will put your faith and trust in Him.

In Romans 10, we read, "For whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Suicidal, and transformed through Christ

John 10:10, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it more abundantly."


This article tells of the transforming power of Christ in a young girl's life:

http://www.faithwriters.com/article-details.php?id=20399

In this story, this girl (we'll call her Sarah for this story) had been feeling in her spirit that she needed to visit her friend one night, and that something was terribly wrong. So she drove to her house and knocked on the door ten times. Sarah knew something was terribly wrong.

Sarah got to the house and drove the girl to a nearby hospital. Sarah's friend  had attempted suicide. She took about 10 pills of a harmful drug, hoping to kill herself. Christ looks at us in our darkest hour and gives us hope in any seemingly hopeless situation.

On the way to the hospital, in the car, Sarah led her friend  to a saving knowledge of Christ. The girl's life was radically transformed. Sarah's friend came to a realization of the amazing love of God. She realized the purpose she had in Christ, far exceeded her own feelings of worthlessness. Sarah simply asked this girl if she would like to place her faith in Christ. She told her all she needed to do was to ask God for forgiveness of her sins and believe on Christ and what he did for her on the cross, to save her. Sarah's friend knew what she had to do and believed in Christ for her salvation.How amazing that Christ met this girl in the darkest hour of her life! In the seemingly hopeless situation this girl was in, Christ looked down at her and gave her hope.  In Romans 10:13 says, "For whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." The grace of God changed this girl's life and she was transformed because she chose to believe in Christ and placed her faith in Him.

At the hospital, the doctors told Sarah that her friend would  have surely died if Sarah would not intervened and driven her to the hospital.



Sarah's friend was in a hopeless situation, and Christ intervened and changed her life. Maybe you are in a hopeless situation. In  Romans 5:5, Paul tells us how the hope of Christ "does not put us to shame."

What hopeless situation are you in? Do you feel as if you have no purpose in life? Christ will meet you at your greatest need and transform your life. Only believe in Him.

I also was in a hopeless situation 8 years ago when I was in the hospital in a 40 day coma and paralyzed on my left side. My family believed for my healing and God truly healed me. I have had to daily believe God for my healing since then and God has continually healed me.

What healing do you need to believe God for?

Proof of God-The love of God...for you
