I discovered regardless of how much faith you have there will be times when it becomes difficult to see positive outcomes or hold onto the belief that you are blessed by God. One of the more interesting elements about being blessed by the Lord is if its not recent we tend to forget and then lose sight of how he cares for us on a daily basis.

To experience the transformative power found within these three dimensions of blessing requires a high level of intentionality on our part. Meaning you will have to make a concerted effort to think upon these three factors on a daily basis. Like eating breakfast, lunch and dinner, reminding yourself throughout the day that Lord is blessing me in these three dimensions.

Here are the three dimensions:

1. The Lord will bless you through other people.
2. The Lord will bless the work of your hands.
3. The Lord will bless you through supernatural means or methods

The Holy Spirit quietly asked if I knew the difference between his hand my hands? Now this took me awhile before I realized its never been about my hands or ability. I can not use my hands to bless the things I do. Even when I think its me, the reality is IT is the lord that enables me do things I do. That is why all thanks belong to the Lord for every single good thing I’ve done in this life.

Have you struggled with pursuing that which the lord has placed in your spirit. If you find it difficult or even impossible to act on the new insights and initiatives given to you by God it probably isn’t because you lack faith or don’t want to do it. There are three distinct challenges we face when attempting to move to another level in this life especially when it comes manifesting the word of God in our lives.

1. Satan and the powers of darkness taking advantage of those who lack understanding so the word is stolen from them. Remember Jesus told us the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy
2. Those who have no roots and have essentially built their foundation on sand which crumbles under the pressures and stresses of this life.
3. Cares of this world and the deceitfulness of Riches which tend work together to destroy followers and make them unfruitful for the kingdom.

If you want to experience this life in the way God designed it to be you need to understand how these three challenges will hinder us in the spiritual and natural dimensions of our lives. The foundational passages of scriptures that sheds light on this issue is found in Matthew chapter 13 verses nineteen through twenty three where Jesus explains the parable of the sower.

I’m not sure how you handle crisis, difficulty or trouble but in today’s podcast I want to equip you with a deeper understanding of the process the Lord has given to us to effectively call on him when trouble hits. Let me clear something up for those whose lives seem trouble free. Sooner or later trouble and difficultly is coming into your life. No matter how well you take care of yourself or how nice you are to others. The passage of Scripture found in Job chapter fourteen and verse one which states that our days are short and full of trouble.

The foundation for calling on God is found in Psalm 50:15 where the Lord declares to Call on Me in the day of trouble and I will deliver you and you should glorify me. The key elements of this passage is to call on God, Deliverance and giving glory to God.

Calling on the Lord is more then mere words. It is an act of faith and worship. Let’s get into these three elements for a clearer understanding of the process to effectively call on God in times of trouble.

This is not the time to give up. The answers to your prayers is closer than you think. War in heavenly realm may be causing the delay but help is on the way.

According to your faith be unto to you

These are difficult times emotionally, financially, and spiritually for many people. Rapid change some good some very bad can be disturbing. How should we think, speak, and act. Where should we align ourselves in the midst of upheaval and change?

What does it take to not only survive but to thrive in the midst of uncertainty, pain, difficulty and confusion. Jesus spoke four very powerful words- ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU

You see this is where it all begins and ends. Your faith in Christ is the end all be all. Nothing is more vital to living the abundant life in every aspect, physically, mentally, and spiritually then the faith you place in Christ.

This literally means your life outcomes are tied to your individual level of faith. This should bring an element of excitement and hope into your life. Because you can greatly influence your life experience through faith in Christ and its NOT in the hands of your manager, significant other, religious and political leaders. Your faith in Christ has the most influence in your life outcomes, its all inside of you. Now its time for you to take charge of your life experience and begin to declare let it but done to me according to my faith.

These powerful words Jesus spoke thousands of years ago still ring true today. Remember God is not a man that he would lie. This is not a philosophical thought or theory. This is not a maybe or I hope so. This is tried and true as God himself declared heaven and earth will pass away but my words will never pass away.

The phrase according to your faith let it be done to you illustrates the spiritual principle I want to convey in this podcast. Your faith is the channel through which God’s mighty power is manifested in your life. There is a direct correlation between your faith and the extent of the blessings you receive in this life.

You can stand on this-let this become your reality, do not let anything or anyone dictate whats possible for you. The lord has equipped you to determine your destiny through faith in him.

At this point I know some of you listening to this is thinking I just don’t have that kind of faith. I can’t speak healing, deliverance, favor, or even blessings over my life let alone someone else’s. When you start having doubts about having enough faith to live the kind of life God has designed you I want you to no I need you tell yourself these words of Christ found in Matthew 17:20-Even if you have the smallest amount of faith--Nothing will be impossible for you.

The Lord Favors You

This might sound too good to be true, but the reality is you are favored by God. He loves you and has made plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future he told us this in Jeremiah 29:11. Many of us need to stop listening that negative narrative telling you that God is not for you, you’ve messed up too much or have not earned Gods favor.

Let me be clear on this God’s favor is not something we can earn, but it is a a gift freely given based on God's love for us. I like to describe it as unmerited or undeserved grace, meaning it's not based on a person's merit or actions. But you do have a role on how this favor will show up in your life.

Regardless of new innovations and inventions humanity is not going to experience any type of utopia. It does not matter if we establish life on mars or the moon. Tech is not going to save humanity nor make us more endearing to one another.

The end of world as we know it is inevitable. These markers or milestones are key elements that coincide with the Return of Christ.

We need to prepare our hearts and remain faithful to Christ as we witness the unfolding of His plan.

Keep your ears and eyes open these four makers/milestones 1. The Preaching of the gospel to every part of the world. 2. Evil doers growing worse and worse 3. The global Persecution of the followers of Christ. 4. Natural disasters
