There is a movement today that chases “encounters with God” marked by feelings & felt experiences.

Yes, we want “His Presence,” but faith built on feelings will rise and fall with your emotions—it’s the seed planted in shallow soil, sown among thorns that is easily uprooted.

Talent
Titles
Anointing
Authority

Not impressive.

Integrity
Humility
Teachability
Kindness

Very impressive.

When a church leader justifies sin because they are “anointed” or that they were allowed by “the spirit”, then one must ask, what anointing and spirit are they accountable too?

Great leaders focus as much on the people they are raising up as they do on the things they are getting done.

People are not “resources” we use to complete the mission. People are the mission.

Lessons from Job.

The devil did not attack Job just to make him suffer. The devil attacked him to make him sin in his suffering.

Suffering is what the devil uses to try to turn you away from God. Suffering is what God uses to prove your faithfulness.

Fathers: Your #1 responsibility is to disciple your children.

It’s not up to the church, the youth pastor, the children’s director, the coach, or the teacher at school.

It’s you. It’s Dad.

Read the Bible to them.
Take them to church.
Teach them to pray.
Give them discernment.

You will never grow beyond your ability to receive correction.

[Gregg T. Johnson @GreggTJohnson]

Discipline beats motivation every time. Motivation is a fleeting emotion; discipline is the will to show up, do the work and stay consistent. Only then will results follow.

There’s one thing worse than a wolf in sheep’s clothing, a wolf in shepherd’s clothing. Beware of false teachers and predatory prophets.

I was confronted with this in my quiet time reading today:
"Do not mistreat those who are widows, those who are orphaned, those who are immigrants, or those who are poor. And don't even think evil against others in your heart." Zechariah 7:10

[Rick Warren @RickWarren]

In 55 years of serving God by serving others...
I learned I didn't need great faith to accomplish great things...
I just needed a simple faith in a Great God.

The size of your God, not the size of your faith, should determine the size of your goals.

The devil will tell you that God can’t use you because you have a past, or made mistakes, or you’re too young or too old, or uneducated.

But the reality is that God using any of us has nothing to do with our human framework and everything to do with His power upon us.

Most churches do not die because the devil is attacking the people, most churches die because the people are attacking one another.

Joy is not a feeling. Joy is a decision. It is choosing to not be miserable even when miserable things are happening to you.
