Step Up Your Level of Influence…

“By this time you ought to be teachers yourselves, yet here I find you need someone to sit down with you and go over the basics on God again, starting from square one -baby’s milk, when you should have been on solid food long ago!” Hebrews 5:12

My night devotional brought me to this verse. For days this Word has been with me, reminding me of dreams and promises that were given to me. How many times have we constantly found ourselves walking around the foot of the same mountain … Missing God’s Perception of who we are? Intaking everyone’s intake on life and our choices. ..Whatever happened to the power behind our very own voice? Does it not bear weight with those around us ? Think of the areas and arenas in life you’ve been given access to, as well as the times and opportunities to advance in these areas that have misused and blown.

Why see your uniqueness as a weakness? When it has been established to be a strength. Personally you would be amazed at the number of admirers that you have. Some are transparent and then there are some who admire from a distance. But one thing that we can be assured of is that whatever is drawing them is the Spirit of God on the inside of us. With that it is up to us to carry our Scepter of Influence in whatever arena or place of influence God has given us and point others back to Him.

Grace to Pass Through It

“This is the role that grace plays when we’re in the midst of our test. God proves His faithfulness to us as He arms us each day with His unmerited and undeserved favor. Grace is the traveling companion that leaves home with us each day. ”

excerpt from Grace to Pass Through It

Conformed to His Image: Reflections©

You may begin strong. But grace is needed in order to finish strong. Remember this as you begin your year that every runner begins with the idea of winning the race. But the level of tension and pain experienced in the middle of the race determines if the runner will endure or will they bail out of the race. Keep in mind that grace is the traveling companion that accompanies us each day. It is the second wind that we need to reach our goals… to make a fresh start. Use your God given tool wisely and remember to finish strong.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ONE

CONCENTRATION “Your eye is a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is good, your whole body is filled with light. But when your eye is bad, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is!” Concentration refers to the power of the mind focusing. Eliminating distractions and idle thinking. Narrowing one’s gaze beyond mental roadblocks that would cause one to lose sight or freezes one’s steps in reaching a goal. What is your goal? Is your goal centered around your career? your finance? or your relationship or marriage? Do you not know that you have the Key of Wisdom before you that would enable you to obtain your goal? A “single eye” focus is solely centered and concentrated. There is no room for a wishy washy mindset. But a mindset that is “concentrated”…whole,and purified. Once the focus is set than the illumination, answers and remedy comes. “Concentration” is a daily pursuit of renewing our thought patterns. Aligning our thought with His Thoughts. Aligning our minds with His Mind. Believing everything that He says about us. So what’s keeping you from reaching your goals?
