LIFES LESSONS
1)FIRST MESSAGE
ALL OF THAT HAVE BEEN BORN AGAIN OR YOUR CONVERSION EXPERIENCE, YOUR SALVATION. WITH THIS CHOICE TO BECOME A CHILD OF GOD. THAT WHOLE EXPERIENCE IS YOUR PERSONAL TESTIMONY TO THOSE WHO WANT YOU TO GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF WHAT YOU BELIEVE. ALSO THE GREAT COMMISSION WAS NEVERA REQUEST NOR SUGGESTION. IT WAS A COMMANDMENT. YOUR MOMENT OF BECOMING A CHILD OF THE LORD WILL BE QUITE SIMILAR. THE JOURNEY WE TOOK THAT WE ARE AWARE OF WILL BE DIFFERENT IN CIRCUMSTANCES N LENGTH. AS AN EVANGELIST I MAKE SURE WHEN WE ARE DONE THEY HAVE TO KNOW ONE OF THREE THINGS AT LEAST. I TELL THEM THE TIME THEY PRAYED AND BECAME GODS CHILD I REMIND WHERE THEY WERE AND LAST PUT A FACE TO IT. ITS AS SIMPLE AS THIS. THIS THE ABRIDGED VERSION OF MY CONVERSION. JAN 14th WE HAD OUR YOUTH GROUP GO TO YOUTH RALLY’S IDK WHO WAS SPEAKING BUT I WAS NOT HAVING ANY OF THIS. SO I SWORE TO MYSELF NEVER AGAIN.
WELL WOULDN’T YOU KNOW I FORGOT BOUT IT. THEN FEBRUARY 14 I FOUND MYSELFBACK IN ANOTHER YOUTH RALLEY SO I DECIDED NOT TO LISTEN. AS IF THE MAN KNEW HE WALKED OVER TO OUR SIDE AND POINTED AT US. IM THINKING ME WHEN HE SAYS. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO NOT LISTEN TO ME BUT THE HOLY SIRIT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO IGNOR. NOW THAT PRESSURE. AT THE END BEING FROM BAPTIST FOUNDATION WE HAD A TRADITIONAL SONG WE WOULD DO. JUST AS I AM. FOUR VERSES.
WHEN THE SONG STARTED THERE WAS A HUGE SPIRTUAL WAR GOING ON. I KEPT GIVING EXCUSES. THEY WOULD PLAY THE FIRST N LAST VERSE. I TOLD GOD IF THEY PLAY VERSE TWO I WILL GO FULLY KNOWING I’D OUT SMARTED GOD UNTIL THEY PLAYED THE SECOND VERSE. THATS WHEN I TOOK ANOTHER BITE AT THE APPLE AND TOLD GOD IF THEY PLAY VERSE THREE I WILL GO. YOU GUESSED IT VERSE THREE. I KNOW I HAVE TO GO BUT DO NOT WANT TO. REPEAT FOURTH VERSE. THAT WAS IT AS THEY WERE CONCLUDED THE FORTH. I ASK GOD TO HAVE THEM PLAY BERSE ONE AGAIN. TO MY TOTAL AMAZEMENT THEY PLAYED ONE AGAIN. AT THAT MOMENT I HEARD GOD SAY IF YOU DO NOT GO NOW YOU NEVER WILL. THAT GOT ME OUT OF MY SEAT. AT THAT POINT MY PASTOR CAME UP AND GREETED ME AND LED ME TO CHRIST. THE CHURCH WAS WEST GENESSE BAPTIST CHURCH. SO I HAVE THE PLACE WGBC THE TIME 8:50 pm FEB 14th YA THAT DAY. N MY PASTOR V HIS FACE. WE SHOULD REMEMBER SOMETHING BOUT IT TO TELL OTHER. THEY MAY NOT BITE MAYBE EVEN GET UPSET WITH YOU ITS ALL GOOD CUS YOU JUST BECAME AN EVANGELIST. REMEMBER PLANT SEED TELL PEEPS. WATER SEED. PRAY OVER IT. NURTURE. WALK OUT YOUR FAITH OUT IN FRONT OF THEM. HARVEST. WHEN YOU GET TO REAP. WHAT SO MANY SOWED INTO
THATS LESSON ONE. THINK WE ONLY HAVE THREE MORE THIS WILL BE VERY SHORT. EVEN MORE REASONS TO BE THANKFUL THAT YOUD DROP INTO A SHORT FEW POSTS. THAT SAID IM VERY APPRECIATIVE OF YOU ALL. UNTIL I GET BACK. GODSPEED ONE LOVE PD

LIFES LESSONS
AS A CHILD OF GOD WE BUILD OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR LORD. THESE THINGS OUR EXPERIENCES ARE ALL WRAPPED UP IN THE TYPE OF RELATIONSHIP ONE HAS WITH THE LORD. PREDOMINANTLY MOST OF US START BY JUST BEING OBEDIENT. AS WE DO THE BASIC THINGS OUT OF OBEDIENCE WE SEE GOD THERE. WE THEN START MOVING INTO A WORKING RELATIONSHIP. WE BEGIN TO TAKE BIGGER STEPS. OUR BABY STEP DAYS HVE PAST. THEN WE EASE INTO A RELATIONSHIP BASED ON FAITH. OF COURSE JESUS SPOKE OF THREE TYPES OF FAITH. NO FAITH ( THATS LIKELY WHEN WE ARE FUNCTIONING STRICTLY ON OBEDIENCE) LITTLE FAITH. THATS WHERE WE MOVE INTO AS WE TRANSITION OUT OF OBEDIENT TO FAITH. LAST TYPE JESUS SAW WAS GREAT FAITH. THIS IS WHERE WE ARE NOW INVOLVED IN KINGDOM BUILDING. WE CAN MAKE THIS STEP AS WE SEE WHEN WE EXERCISE FAITH GOD COMES THROUGH. HES IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THINGS KINGDOM. WITH THIS GREAT FAITH WE BECOME SO ATTACHED TO GOD ITS LIKE WE ARE ADDICTED. ACTUALLY ONE OF JOHNS LETTERS HE SPOKE OF BEING ADDICTED TO ACTIVITIES OF GOD. WE NOW ARE ASKING THINGS DEAR TO OUR HEART. AGAIN WE SEE EVEN MORE OF GOD AND HIS ACTIVITY IN ONES LIFE. THIS IS WHERE WE MOVE INTO WHAT I CALL A LOVE RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR LORD.
EACH STEP WE TAKE TO BUILD UPON THE RELATIONSHIP. BEFORE WE HAVE ALL TYPES OF THINGS GOD DID IN US FOR US THROUH US WE HAVE EXPERIENCES THAT WE CAN TELL OTHERS. THIS WE DO WE BREAT CONFIDENCE. THESE EXPERIENCES ARE UNIQUE TO US ONLY IN THE WAY WE SAW IT. BECAUSE THERES NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN WE AS THE HEARER OF OTHERS EXPERIENCES INSTINCTIVELY CAN IDENTIFY WITH THE EXPERIENCE JUST FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE. THIS WILL ALSO GET THEM TO THINK WHY YOU NOT THEM, THEN THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL KICK IN. THEY WILL BE FACED WITH ALLOWING GOD INTO OUR LIVES OR KEEP DOING THINGS OUR WAY. AGAIN OUR WAY GODS WAY. OUR WAY FAILURE. GODS WAY SUCCESS AND PROSPERITY. WE ALSO WILL BE ABLE TO SHARE OUR FAILURES. YET WE KNOW THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE TO MUCH OF US. NOT ENOUGH GOD. THAT TO MAKES THE HEARER SEE THE SAME RESULT WE HAD WITHOUT GOD IS THEIRS ALSO. AGAIN THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL DO HIS MINISTERING.
I JOURNAL THE THINGS GOD DOES DID FOR ME AND THROUGH ME. THIS ENDS TODAYS LESSON. I PRAY YOU WILL DRAW COURAGE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. IDK WHEN I WILL BE BACK I HOPE IN THE NEXT WEEK N HALF. UNTIL THEN THANK YOU AGAIN FOR DROPPING IN. GODSPEED BLESSINGS ONE LOVE PD

3) MESSAGE LIFES LESSONS #2
THE EXPERIENCES WE HAVE WITH OUR LORD MAY NOT BE NEW BUT IT IS UNIQUE TO EACH OF US. GOD HAS BEEN THERE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. THE BIIBLE SAYS SO JESUS TOLD US SO BEFORE HE LEFT. I GUESS WE JUST TAKE SO MUCH FOR GRANTED. OFTEN THERE ARE MANY TIMES IN MY LIFE WHERE I SEE THE ACTIVITY OF GOD ALL ROUND ME. MANY TIMES HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE WAS INTERVENING. OTHER TIMES IT WAS WELL IN MY YEARS AS I LOOKED BACK AND SAW HIM THERE. MOST TIMES IT WAS ON ME AS I WAS NOT WHERE I NEEDED TO BE. ACTUALLY OFTEN REBELLIOUS. YET THERE HE WAS. THIS GIVES US CONFIDENCE HE IS THERE NOW AND TOMORROW.
IT REALLY DOES NOT MATTER WHO YOUR TARGETED PERSON OR PEOPLE MAY BE. THE EXPERIENCE CAN BE USED TO SHOW HOW GOD WAS THERE WHEN YOU WERE NOT RIGHT WITH HIM. IT MAY BE TO NON BELIEVERS ALL THE WAY TO A MATURE CHRISTIAN. OUR EXPERIENCES ARE SHOWING THE ACTIVITY OF GOD IN OUR LIVES. ONCE YOU GET PEOPLE TO SEE THE ACTIVITY OF GOD YOU SPEAK OF. THEY WALKED RIGHT INTO THE TRAP. FOR NOW YOU CAN INTRODUCE THEM TO THE GOD OF THE ACTIVITY. OUR EXPERIENCES ARE LESSONS ON WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE ARE IN THE BATTLE. THEY ALSO SHOW THAT GOD IS FAITHFUL TO STEP IN AT OUR FIRST CALLING WHEN WE MAY BE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN
NEVER THINK YOUR LIFES STORY WITH GOD IS NOT IMPORTANT OR SOMEHOW INSIGNIFICANT. YOU NEVER KNOW HOW POWERFUL YOUR WORDS ARE TO THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO HEAR IT. I WILL END THIS TOPIC LIFES LESSONS AND MOVE ON TO GODLY PASSION NEXT TIME I RETURN
IM NOT SURE HOW LONG I WILL BE GONE. SUMMERS HERE AND I GET KINDA BUSY BUT WONT BE TO LONG. TY ALL FOR TAKING FEW MINUTES TO READ THIS POST. IM ALWAYS GRATEFUL FOR YOU ALL. UNTIL I RETURN GODSPEED BLESSINGS ONE LOVE PD

LIFES MESSAGES
TODAY WE WILL THAL BOUT THE LAST MESSAGE YOU HAVE IN YOUR QUIVER. UNLIKE THE FIRST TWO THAT ARE PREDOMINANTLY SPOKEN, YET WE STILL WALK OUT OR FAITH ALSO. KINDA A BACK UP CONTINUOUSLY. ALL SPOKEN WORDS ESPECIALLY THAT OF GODS ARE POWERFUL. THEY HAVE BEEN SAID THAT OIR PRAYERS CAN MOVE THE HAND OF GOD. I CANT BEGIN THO GRASP THE ENORMITY OF THE ABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY THAT COMES WITH IT.
THAT BEING SAID TODAY WE WILL FINISH THIS TPOIC WITH OUR LAST LIFES MESSAGE. TODAY WE ARE SPEAKING ON OUR GODLY PASSION. WE ALL LOVE BEING WITH OTHER BELIEVERS. WE JOYFULLY KEEP THE ORDINANCES OF THE CHURCH. WE LIKE BEING AROUND THE ACTIVITY OF GOD. ALSO BY NOW IF YOUVE BEEN A BELIEVER FOR MORE THEN FIVE YEARS YOUR LIKELY AWARE OF YOUR SPIRITUAL GIFT. YOU JUST MAY NOT BE IN A MINISTRY THAT RECOGNIZES YOUR GIFT. ONCE YOUVE IDENTIFY YOUR GIFT THEN YOU BEGIN TO HONE YOUR GIFT. DURING THIS PROCESS YOU WILL NO LONGER BE NEAR OR AROUND THE ACTIVITY OF GOD BUT IN THE ACTIVITY. YOU WILL FIND THAT YOUR SPIRITUALLY HAPPIEST WHEN YOU ARE FUNCTIONING IN THE CAPACITY OF ONES GIFT.
NOW HERES THE AWESOME PART AS GOD BUILT THIS IN THE SYSTEM. AS YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH BEING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ACTIVITY, GOD GIVES YOU A LITTLE MORE OF A GLIMPS OF HIM IN THE ACTIVITY. WE THEN GROW DEPENDENT ON SEERING THE ACTIVITY OF GOD YET SEEING THE GOD OF SUCH ACTIVITY. WE EVENTUALLY FALL IN LOVE WITH THE BLEND OF GOD AND ACTIVITY.
THIS GIFT BECOMES YOUR GODLY PASSION. YOU MAY ACTUALLY FIND YOU HAVE MORE THEN ONE. REMEMBER TO BE FAITHFUL WITH THE USE OF THE GIFTS. ITS SAID HE WILL REMOVE THEM. WEATHER YOU HAVE ONE OR MORE GIFT THE GIFT WILL BECOME YOUR DRIVING FORCE.
I CAN ONLY SPEAK OF MY GIFTS. EVANGELIST AND PASTOR. ACTUALLY IDK HOW ONE CAN BE A PASTOR BUT NOT MAKE SURE OF SALVATIONS. THATS JUST ME. SPEAKING TO MY GIFTS ESPECIALLY EVANGELISM ITS MY HIGH. MY REQUEST FROM GOD IS TO ALLOW ME TO BE THE ONE TO CHRIST AND WE GET CALLED HOME. YA YOU NEVER HEAR THAT FROM TV NOR YOUR PASTOR. I GET UP EVERY MORING ANTICIPATING I WILL MEET SOMEONE WHO NEEDS CHRIST. IT DOES NOT ALWAYS HAPPEN. YET IVE HAD THE PRIVILEGE TO HAVE LED OVER 4000 TO CHRIST IN MY 3O YEARS OF JOING GOD IN KINGDOM BUILDING. THREW THE MINISTRY WEVE REACHED OVER 5000 TO CHRIST. EVERY PERSON I LOOK AT I WONDER IF THIS IS THE ONE.
I BELIEVE YOU TO BY USING YOUR GIFT. UNDERSTANDING HOW IT BENEFITS YOUR MINISTRY AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH. WE ALL HAVE OUR PARTS TO PLAY. ONCE YOU AND GOD ARE ON THE THE SAME PAGE THE OPPORTUNITIES WILL BE THERE FOR HIS PLEASURE YOUR ENJOYMENT. SO WHAT WE ARE DOING HERE IS MORE SHOWING OUR LOVE FOR GOD BY USING YOUR GIFT. NOT JUST ACTING AS A CHRISTIAN BUT KNOWN AS A CHRISTIAN BASED ON YOUR LOVE RELATIONSHIP IN WITH THROUGH GOD. USE YOUR GIFT LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE ALL MEN. THIS WILL REQIRE US TO TALK IN SOME CASES. OTHERS ARE WAY MORE WALKING OUT YOUR FAITH YET FUNCTIONING IN OUR GIFT.
IF YOUR NOT SURE WHAT YOUR GODLY PASSION IS. THE ONE THING YOU JUST HAVE TO DO. THE ONLY THINKG THAT DRIVES YOU SO HARD AND BRINGS YOU CONTENTMENT. PRAY TO GOD TO SHOW YOU HOW THAT CONTENTMENT CAN BE TURNED INTO GODLY PASSION. ITS MORE THE LIKELY WHAT YOU LOVE DOING IS YOUR SPIRITUAL GIFT. YOU JUST NEED TO KNOW WHAT ITS CALLED IN BIBLICAL TERMS.
I COULD HAVE GONE A BIT DEEPER ON THIS TOPIC. YET I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING A LITTLE SHORTER AND AN EAZY READ. SO ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU ALL FOR STOPPING BY TO SEE WHATS GOING ON HERE. YOUR THE MOST REMARKABLE PEOPLE IVE EVER KNOWN. MY ONE REGRET IS IDK YOU PERSONALLY. IVE FEW TOPICS OUT THERE. IM GOING TO FINSH THEM UP BEFORE MOVING TO SOMETHING NEW. UNTIL THEN. GODSPEED. BLESSINGS ONE LOVE PD
