Daily Inspirational for Friday 12-29-06
 
With the new year comes fresh starts, resolutions, and new beginnings. It is a time of making plans, setting goals, and writing visions. But the greatest "new start" of all comes through Jesus Christ. II Corinthians 5:17 says: "Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a NEW creation; the old has passed away, behold the new has come."

If you need a new beginning this year, in any area of your life, allow Christ to make you a new creation and the old will pass away! He will put a new and right spirit within you when you call upon His name! This year, make your relationship with Him your number one priority. As you develop an intimacy with Him through daily prayer and the study of His Word, you will experience the joy of newness of life!
 
"Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me."  (Psalms 51:10)

Daily Inspirational for Thursday 12-21-06

God wants us to constantly be growing, and sometimes He'll use a little adversity to get us moving forward.  He will allow pressure to push you, to stretch you, to get you out of your comfort zone.  He knows just how much you can take, and in your times of distress, keep in mind, God is enlarging you.  The struggle is giving you strength.
 
"Your teachers will be hidden no more; with your own eyes you will see them.  Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, This is the way; walk in it."  (Isaiah 30:20-21)

Daily Inspirational for Wednesday 12-20-06

It's not always easy to get over some of those bumps in the road, those disillusionments and disappointments.  It's going to take a strong will.  Sometimes, it may take courage; sometimes nothing but faith in God and sheet determination will see you through.  But you can say, "I refuse to be trapped in the past.  I'm not going to let the past destroy my future.  I'm pressing on.  I'm straining forward, knowing that God has great things in store for me!"
 
"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."  (Philippians 3:14)

Daily Inspirational for Tuesday 12-19-06

We should never speak negative, destructive words towards anybody, especially toward people over whom we have authority or influence.  Just because you have your own business or supervise a large number of employees doesn't give you the right to talk down to them and make them feel badly about themselves.  Quite the contrary!  God is going to hold you accountable for what you say to those individuals under your authority.  Go out of your way to speak positive words that build up and encourage.
 
"Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts.  Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark."  (James 3:5)

Daily Inspirational for Monday 12-18-06

Here's some good new:  You don't have to keep up with the Jones's.  You can run your own race and be an individual.  God has given you the grace to do what He's called you to do.  He has not given you the grace to go what everybody else is doing.
 
"Let us strip off anything that slows us down or holds us back, and especially those sins that wrap themselves so tightly around our feet and trip us up; and let us run with patience the particular race that God has set before us."  (Hebrews 12:1)

Daily Inspirational for Friday 12-15-06

God has observed every time you went out of the way to lend a helping hand.  God is keeping those records.  Some people will tell you that it doesn't make any difference whether you give or not, or that it doesn't do any good.  But don't listen to those lies.  God has promised that your generous gifts will come back you.
 
"Then the righteous will answer him, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?"  …The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."  (Matthew 25:37, 40)

Daily Inspirational for Thursday 12-14-06

I'm convinced that one day we will look back at what we considered to be the worst thing that could happen to us, and we'll realize that God used even that time of adversity to refine us, mold us, shape us, and prepare us for good things to come.  Interesting, isn't it?  Adversity often pushes us into our divine destiny.  And sometimes we need a push!

Daily Inspirational for Wednesday 12-13-06

Every morning when you get up, refuse to dwell on what you did wrong the day before.  Refuse to dwell on yesterday's disappointments.  Get up each day knowing that God is a loving and forgiving God, and He has great thing in store for you.
 
"I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall.  Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope; Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.  They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."  (Lamentations 3:19-23)

Daily Inspirational for Tuesday 12-12-06

We need to be extremely careful about what we allow to come out of our mouths.  The next time you're tempted to talk down to somebody, to belittle your child or degrade him/her, remember, you can't ever get those words back.  Once you speak them, they take on a life of their own.  Use your words to speak blessings over people.  Quit criticizing the people around you and start declaring great things in store for their future.
 
"Do not rebuke an older man harshly, but exhort him as if he were your father.  Treat younger men as brothers, older women as mother, and younger women as sisters, with absolute purity."  (1 Timothy 5:1-2)

Daily Inspirational for Monday 12-11-06

We all must learn to appreciate out differences.  Don't try to squeeze everybody into your little box.  And don't allow anyone else to cramp your style.  Certainly, we can always learn from other people, and sometimes we need to be open to change.  But you need not feel insecure because you don't have the same physical, emotional, or intellectual traits that someone else has….Be happy with who God made you to be.
 
"Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God."  (Romans 15:7)

Daily Inspirational for Friday 12-8-06 and the Weekend!!!

When you give, you are storing up God's goodness and His favor so in your time of need, you'll have a great harvest out of which God can "draw" to meet your need.  You may not have any pressing needs today.  That's great!  But don't let that stop you from giving.  Prepare for the future.  When you do have a need, God will be right there to help you out.  Giving is similar to taking a preventive medicine.  You are storing up God's goodness.
 
"I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.  They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be blessed."  (Psalm 37:25-26)

Daily Inspirational for Thursday 12-7-06

God uses ordinary people like you and me to do extraordinary things.  He's not looking for great education.  God is simply looking for a willing heart.  God is not looking for ability; He's looking for availability.  Just give God what you have.  If you'll give God the little that you do have, He'll take that and multiply it and increase it.  And He'll make more out of your life than you've ever dreamed possible.  God's plan for your life is so much bigger and so much greater than you can imagine.

Maybe you have put a lot of time and resources into your Plan A.  But now you can clearly see that the door is closing, and you disappointed.  Right there is where you must dare to trust God, knowing that He has a better plan for you.  He wants to do something new in your life.  And you must let go of the old so you will be ready and able to receive the new plan God has for you.  God will do more than you can ever ask or think.

Daily Inspirational for Tuesday 12-5-06

What are you passing down to the next generation?  It's not enough to think it; you must vocalize it.  A blessing is not a blessing until it is spoken.  The children in your life need to hear you say words such as, "I believe in you.  I think you're great."  They need to hear your approval.  They need to feel your love.  They need your blessing.
 
"Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them.  But the disciples rebuked those who brought them.  Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."  (Matthew 19:13-14)

Daily Inspirational for Monday December 4th

Be an original.  Dare to be different; be secure in who God made you and then go out and be the best that you can be.  You don't have to look or act like anyone else.  God has given us all different gifts, talents, and personalities on purpose.  You don't really need anybody else's approval to do what you know God wants you to do. 
 
"If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be?  If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?  But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be."  (1 Corinthians 12:17-18)

Daily Inspirational for Friday 12-01-06

If you will sow an extraordinary seed, you will reap an extraordinary harvest.  What seed are you putting in the ground?  Are you giving God anything to work with?  If not, start planning and start planting!  The Bible says, "Give generously, for your gifts will return to you later.  Divide your gifts among many, for in the days ahead you yourself may need much help."  Notice, God is giving us a principle here that will cause us to have our needs supplies during those tough times that occasionally come.

Daily Inspirational for Thursday 11-30-06

When you face adversity, you need to remind yourself that whatever is trying to defeat you could very well be what God will use to promote you.  If you will handle adversity in the right way, God has promised that he will turn your challenges unto stepping-stones for promotion.    God wants to do new and unusual things in our lives.  He's looking for people who will trust Him with their whole hearts.  He's looking for people who won't limit Him with their small-minded thinking.

Poem "Blessings" by Michael

Everyone, my friend Michael wrote this poem.  He is working on publishing his first book and I thought that I would share some of his work with you.  Lord Bless all those creative inspirational minds.  Amen
 
Blessings
When the darkness seems everlasting
When hope seems to always be passing
Don't curse the Lord for he hears your cry
He wants you to rebuke the Devil's lies
God will bless you in His own time
Within His love you will always find
That His blessings will always lift you up
Till you find the courage not to give up

Maybe somebody else's foolish decisions caused you to experience wrenching heartache and pain.  You must stop dwelling on it.  Let the past be the past.  Forgive the person who caused you the trouble and start afresh right where you are today.  If you continue to dwell on those past disappointments, you will block God's blessings in your life today.  It's simply not worth it.

Daily Inspirational for Tuesday 11-28-06

Each of us has influence over somebody.  Even if you're a teenager, somebody values your opinion.  It is vital that we speak "good things" into the lives of those over whom we have influence.  That doesn't mean we will never disagree with them or have to confront and correct them.  But the general tenor of our words to them and about them should be positive.
 
"Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live.  Teach them to your children and to their children and to their children after them."  (Deuteronomy 4:9)

God Using Caller ID!

On a Saturday night several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone.

The pastor let the phone ring many times. He thought it was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, ! and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.



The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night.

The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.


The man said, "That's, OK. Let me tell you my story.

You see, I was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this, give me a sign now.' At that point my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to an! swer!"


The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle!!
If you believe that God answers prayers then pass this on. God bless!

READ EACH SENTENCE! SLOWLY AND THINK ABOUT IT.



Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.


Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.



Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.



Don't let the past hold you back, you're missing the good stuff.


BEST FRIENDS are the siblings God forgot to give us.



When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your BEST FRIEND will be there.



Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.


Send this on to everyone special in your life, even the people who really make you mad sometimes and to the people whose lives you want to be in!!!

And send it back to the person who sent it to you if they mean something to you!! Remember, every minute spent angry is sixty seconds of happiness wasted.

Daily Inspirational for Saturday 11-25-06

Be grateful for what you have!  Quit looking at what's wrong and start thanking God for what's right.  Get up each day expecting good things.  Start expecting God's favor.  Start expecting His blessings.  Be excited about today.  This could be the day things turn around.  This could be the day you get your miracle.  This could be the day you meet the person of your dreams.  This could be the day your child come back home.  That's how you stay enthusiastic, even in tough times.  You expect good things.  You stay filled with hope.

Number one, stay full of joy.  Number two, go out and sow a seed.  Help someone else, and you will be helped.  Sow a seed while you're waiting for that next door of opportunity to open.  If you believe for a better car, instead of complaining about the one you have, sow a seed by giving somebody a ride.  If you believe for your business to be blessed, help somebody else's business to grow.  Do something to get some seed in the ground.

You may have made some poor choices that have caused you awful heartache and pain.  You may feel disqualified from God's best, convinced that you must settle for second best because of the poor decisions you made.  But God desires you restoration even more than you do!  If you'll let go of the pat, God will restore everything that the enemy has stolen from you.
 
"Come; let us return to the Lord.  He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.  After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, which we may live in his presence."  (Hosea 6:1-2)

A lesson in love

A lesson in love

   
Carl was a quiet man. He didn't talk much. He would always greet you  with a big smile and a firm handshake.

 
Even after living in our neighborhood for over 50 years, no one could  really say they knew him very well.

 
Before his retirement, he took the bus to work each morning. The lone  sight of him walking down the street often worried us.

 
He had a slight limp from a bullet wound received in WWII.

 
Watching him, we worried that although he had survived WWII, he may  not make it through our changing uptown neighborhood with its ever-increasing random violence, gangs, and drug activity.

 
When he saw the flyer at our local church asking for volunteers for  caring for the gardens behind the minister's residence, he responded in hi s characteristically unassuming manner. Without fanfare, he just signed up.

 
He was well into his 87th year when the very thing we had always  feared finally happened. He was just finishing his watering for the day when  three gang members approached him. Ignoring their attempt to intimidate him,  he simply asked, "Would you like a drink from the hose?"

 
The tallest and toughest-looking of the three said, "Yeah,  sure," with a malevolent little smile. As Carl offered the hose to  him, the other two grabbed Carl's arm, throwing him down. As the hose snaked  crazily over the ground, dousing everything in its way, Carl's assailants  stole his retirement watch and his wallet, and then fled.

 
Carl tried to get himself up, but he had been thrown down on his bad  leg. He lay there trying to gather himself as the minister came running to  help him. Although the minister had witnessed the attack from his  window, he couldn't get there fast enough to stop it.

 
"Carl, are you okay? Are you hurt?" the minister kept asking  as he helped Carl to his feet.

 
Carl just passed a hand over his brow and sighed, shaking his  head  "Just some punk kids. I hope they'll wise-up someday."


 

 
His wet clothes clung to his slight frame as he bent to pick up the  hose. He adjusted the nozzle again and started to water.

 
Confused and a little concerned, the minister asked, "Carl, what  are you doing?" "I've got to finish my watering. It's been  very dry lately," came the calm reply.

 
Satisfying himself that Carl really was all right, the minister could  only marvel. Carl was a man from a different time and place.

 
A few weeks later the three returned. Just as before their threat was  unchallenged. Carl again offered them a drink from his hose.

 
This time they didn't rob him. They wrenched the hose from his hand  and drenched him head to foot in the icy water.

 
When they had finished their humiliation of him, they sauntered off  down the street, throwing catcalls and curses, falling over one another  laughing at the hilarity of what they had just done.

 
Carl just watched them. Then he turned toward the warmth giving sun,  picked up his hose, and went on with his watering.

 
The summer was quickly fading into fall, Carl was doing some tilling  when he was startled by the sudden approach of someone behind him. He  stumbled and fell into some evergreen branches.

 
As he struggled to regain his footing, he turned to see the tall  leader of his summer tormentors reaching down for him. He braced himself for  the expected attack.

 
"Don't worry old man, I'm not gonna hurt you this time." The  young man spoke softly, still offering the tattooed and scarred hand to Carl.  As he helped Carl get up, the man pulled a crumpled bag from his pocket and  handed it to Carl.

 
"What's this?" Carl asked. "It's your stuff,"  the man explained. "It's your stuff back. Even the money in your  wallet." "I don't understand," Carl said. "Why would you help me now?"

 
The man shifted his feet, seeming embarrassed and ill at ease. "I  learned something from you," he said. "I ran with that gang and  hurt people like you. We picked you because you were old and we knew we could  do it. But every time we came and did something to you, instead of yelling  and fighting back, you tried to give us a drink. You didn't hate us for  hating you. You kept showing love against our hate." He stopped for a  moment. "I couldn't sleep after we stole your stuff, so here it is  back."

 
He paused for another awkward moment, not knowing what more there was  to say. "That bag's my way of saying thanks for straightening me out, I  guess." And with that, he walked off down the street.

 
Carl looked down at the sack in his hands and gingerly opened it. He  took out his retirement watch and put it back on his wrist. Opening his  wallet, he checked for his wedding photo. He gazed for a moment at the young  bride that still smiled back at him from all those years ago.

 
He died one cold day after Christmas that winter. Many people attended  his funeral in spite of the weather. In particular the minister noticed a  tall young man that he didn't know sitting quietly in a distant corner of the  church.

 
The minister spoke of Carl's garden as a lesson in life. In a voice  made thick with unshed tears, he said, "Do your best and make your  garden as beautiful as you can. We will never forget Carl and his garden."  

 
The following spring another flyer went up. It read:
"Person needed to care for Carl's garden."

 
The flyer went unnoticed by the busy parishioners until one day when a  knock was heard at the minister's office door.

 
Opening the door, the minister saw a pair of scarred and tattooed  hands holding the flyer. "I believe this is my job, if you'll have  me," the young man said.

 
The minister recognized him as the same young man who had returned the  stolen watch and wallet to Carl.

 
He knew that Carl's kindness had turned this man's life around. As the  minister handed him the keys to the garden shed, he said, "Yes, go take  care of Carl's garden and honor him."

 
The man went to work and, over the next several years, he tended the  flowers and vegetables just as Carl had done.

 
In that time, he went to college, got married, and became a prominent  member of the community. But he never forgot his promise to Carl's memory and  kept the garden as beautiful as he thought Carl would have kept it.

 
One day he approached the new minister and told him that he couldn't  care for the garden any longer. He explained with a shy and happy smile,  "My wife just had a baby boy last night, and she's bringing him home on  Saturday."

 
"Well, congratulations!" said the minister, as he was handed  the garden shed keys. "That's wonderful! What's the baby's  name?"         "Carl,"  he replied.

 

 
That's the whole gospel message simply stated.

 
Take 60 seconds give this a shot! Let's just see if Satan stops this  one.

 
All you do is:

1. Simply say a small prayer for the person who sent you this.

Father, God bless this person in whatever it is that You know he or  she may be needing this day!

 
2. Then send it on to five other people. Within hours five people have  prayed for you, and you caused a multitude of people to pray to God for other  people.

 
Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life for doing  the thing that you know He loves.

 
GOOD FRIENDS ARE LIKE ANGELS, YOU DON'T HAVE TO SEE THEM TO KNOW THEY  ARE THERE.

Daily Inspirational for Friday 11-17-06 & the Weekend!

When you go through difficult times, because of the stress it's easy to focus only on your needs, on what's wrong in your life.  But if you want the best stress relief of all, get your mind off yourself and go help somebody else.  Something supernatural happens when we turn our attention away from our own needs to needs of others.  God's supernatural power seems to be activated by unselfish gestures.  When you have a problem, don't concentrate on your needs; think about what kind of seeds you can sow to get you out of your problems.
 
"The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously."  (Psalm 37:21)

Daily Inspirational for Thursday 11-16-06

Sustaining faith is what gets you through those dark nights of the soul when you don't know where to go or what to do, and it seems that you can't last another day…but because of your faith in God, you do.  You say, "God, I don't care what comes against me, I don't care how long it takes, this thing is not going to defeat me.  It's not going to get me down.  I know You're on my side.  And as long as You are for me, that's all that matters."
 
"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong."  (1 Corinthians 16:13)

Bush Joke of the Day

President Bush, First Lady Laura and Dick Cheney were flying on Air Force One. George looked at Laura, chuckled and said, "You know, I could throw a $1,000 bill out of the window right now and make somebody very happy." Laura shrugged her shoulders and replied, "I could throw ten $100 bills out of the window and make ten people very happy." Cheney added, "That being the case, I could throw one hundred $10 bills out of the window and make a hundred people very happy." Hearing their exchange, the pilot rolled his eyes and said to his co-pilot, "Such big-shots back there. Shit, I could throw all of yall asses out of the window and make 56 million people very happy." If you're one of those 56 million, repost this joke.

Daily Inspirational for Wednesday 11-15-06

Surely, we all can look back and see things in out lives that we wish we would have done differently.  But the Bible says, "Make the most of each day."  Yesterday is gone; tomorrow may not come.  You must live for today. Start right where you are.  You can't do anything about what's gone, but you can do a great deal about what remains.
 
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own."  (Matthew 6:33-34)

Daily Inspirational for Tuesday 11-14-06

You must start boldly confessing God's Word, using your words to move forward in life, to bring to life the great things God has in store for you.  When you believe God's Word and begin to speak it, mixing it with your faith, you are actually confirming that truth and making it valid in your own life.
 
"Hear this, all you people; listen, all who live in this world, both low and high, rich and poor alike; My mouth will speak words of wisdom; the utterance from my heart will give understanding.  I will turn your ear to a proverb; with the harp I will expound my riddle.  (Psalm 49:1-4)
