A PERSON WHO CANNOT FORGIVE HAS FORGOTTEN HOW GREAT A DEBT GOD HAS FORGIVEN THEM.

If we don’t risk being hurt, we cannot give unconditional love. Unconditional love gives others the right to hurt us.

The Bible is very clear that in the last days men will be “lovers of themselves” (2 Tim. 3:2).

I am so tired of criticalness being called discernment. Do you want to know true discernment? Paul said "That your love may abound in all discernment." When you are willing to die for somebody that is when you are actually discerning them. Jesus could call the Pharisees hypocrites and snakes because he went to the cross and died for them. So the next time you are quote "discerning" about somebody ask yourselves the question could you die for them? If you can`t say yes, you're critical because the love of God is to lay down your life for them, and discernment is rooted only in love. Got it?

God is seeking those who hear His call to a life of worship. Those who heed are those who will walk in His presence. They will know Him intimately as He will manifest Himself to them.

Godly fear, faith, and humility is the true threefold cord that can’t easily be broken (see Ecclesiastes 4:12).

How can a good God appoint cruel people to positions of authority? The answer is simple: God is the originator of the authority, but He is not the author of the cruelty. Man is responsible for his cruel actions, not God. All authority is of God, but not all authority is godly.

The man or woman who doesn't forgive has forgotten the price that Christ paid for them on the Cross.
-
I see a generation comprised of all ages, inclusive of men and women, awakening to the extraordinary qualities hidden within. The power to accomplish remarkable feats and live an exceptional life is not defined by an individual's family, education, or occupation; it's a disposition of the heart. Unless it's suppressed, there is an innate desire to rise above the norm. I encourage you to step into the unknown, embrace the divine empowerment, and live your extraordinary life.

The Spirit of God is jealous over us; He doesn't want superficial fellowship, but genuine intimacy.
-
We are like horses that must be broken; basically that one should submit to a pastor even if he is wrong.

Offense cuts you off from God. We separate ourselves from the pipeline. I've never seen anything block blessings from Heaven except offense.
-
Grace gives us the power to live, and mercy keeps us free from guilt, condemnation, and shame.

God doesn't author hardship but uses it to strengthen us for greater conquests. He never leads us into a storm that He doesn't give us the power to overcome.

We all have life-defining moments. They are like open-book tests, but we don't know we have been examined until it is over.
-
Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
-
We must always keep in mind all legitimate authority is from God, and is given for protection, provision, and peace.

True honor is an outflow from a heart that fears God.
