The First Day

Just arrived into Honolulu where my new life should begin. I had a fear that loneliness would take hold of me once I arrived, and it did. I said a prayer my grandmother showed me in the bible. Psalm 27. Now as I write the loneliness has disappeared. I realized yesterday that I lost all my material goods and will have to seek the Father daily for HIS help. I truly dont think HE planned it this way, I just took too many wrong turns. Keep me in your prayers as I continue to pray for you. (Day One)

Rejection healed by compassion.

Rejection can be defined as the sense of being unwanted, the wounds are closely related to betrayal and shame. Sometimes rejection is so wounding and painful, it crushes the spirit. Prv 18:14. This has happened to me. The Holy Spirit showed me during prayer that in my situation the events were not about me, but the pain is still great. So what do we do? That's when I was given the example of Jesus (Matt 9:36). Jesus had compassion on the very people who killed him. Satan knew all the Son of God had to do was open his mouth, and his enemies would of been destroyed! Compassion. I pray today that the Lord, will continue to show me how to forgive His way.

Surprised by PRIDE

Pride :
Feeling of superiority: a haughty attitude shown by somebody who believes, often unjustifiably, that he or she is better than others

We tend to think of pride as being arrogant or self centered, but the spirit of pride takes the role of self pity too.

During my personal prayer time I would always confess to the Lord how I believed I never operated in pride because I was always willing to forgive people and admit my errors quickly. One day the Holy Spirit showed me that I was operating in pride, because of self pity. Think about it with self pity your thoughts are always about us! Sounds like pride to me. It may not be an arrogant type of pride but its still pride.

I had to repent of that spirit of self pity, because it’s one of those little foxes that could block your prayer life.

Lead me not into temptation

The Godhead never tempts us, but yet we are tempted. So who does the tempting? Satan! If he tempted Jesus, he will tempt us. How did Jesus overcome satans temptations? He Jesus quoted the WORD! Jesus quoted the WORD, and satan fleed. We need to read the WORD, and pray that we are not lead into temptation.

How did HE know?

I don't mean to sound religious, but I am a Christan, which I will never deny.  Yesterday I was driving by a church in my local town.  This church was in the middle of the desert.  I had been wanting someone to pray over me because I felt a negative spiritual attack was happening to me.  It just so happen that this church was having a special Saturday night service.  After hearing the message which was a special book in the bible for me, the pastor giving the message asked if anyone needed prayer so I went forward. The pastor just laid hands on me and prayed about this attack that was against me... how did he know?  The Holy Spirit is everywhere and knows all things.  I pray the blood Jesus all the time, but sometimes like the bible says, we need others to help us.  Today is a much better day.

Consider the source! always

I was recently told that some bad things were said about me to a good friend, and you know, I felt something was said because my friend changed.  So you probably thinking what do I call this person a friend?  I'm a person that picks my friends by my heart, and its never let me down.  I've learned how to forgive people and try to love unconditionally, even if it hurts sometimes.  Once at a very young age while reading my bible, the Holy Spirit showed me that people talked badly about Jesus all the time, so what did HE do? he turned the other cheek.  In the spirit of meekness and humility Jesus was so confident in him self that the words of other never took him off track.  I truly believe Jesus always considered the source "Satan most of the time" take a look at the gospel of Mark, you will see religious people and actual demons make negative comments to and about Jesus.  Jesus himself even said, if they talked about me they will talk about you, because we are not greater then our Lord.  I love my friend greatly, and maybe one day he will "consider the source" and not care about what people say. 

Thought for the day: Consider the source!!! If you're a person of integrity, talk with your trusted friend, don’t always believe the messenger.
