Flourishing In Uncertain Times

 Psalm 1:1-3

Our text passage shows it is the right of the righteous to flourish.

The righteous can flourish even in uncertain times.

Uncertain times are difficult times.

Uncertain times are hard times.

Uncertain times are dark times.

The end times are uncertain times.

As tough as the end times are we can flourish in the midst of it.

We can become like the proverbial tree by the waterside that flourishes in it's season.

God wants us to release our faith for us to flourish.

A lot can happen through faith.

Matthew 21:22

God wants us to obey Him so that the blessing can function to make us flourish.

Deuteronomy 28:1,2

God wants us to tarry in His presence so as to flourish.

Psalm 92:12-14

In the presence of God, that which is dead comes to life for God is a God of the living not the dead.

Matthew 12:27

To flourish is to thrive.

To flourish is to bloom and blossom.

To flourish is to prosper.

To flourish is to manifest.

Growth and development are aspects of flourishing.

Only the living flourish.

Psalm 92:12

Stay alive, God wants you to live!

He wants you to not only survive the uncertain times we're in, He wants you to flourish.

We are of more use to God alive than dead.

Psalm 6:5

We are created to glorify God.

Your growth and development glorifies God.

Luke 2:52

Your blossoming and prosperity glorifies God.

Psalm 35:27

Flourishing is the natural result of God's presence.

The rod of Aaron the brother of Moses flourished in the presence of God.

It wasn't a plant but a carved and probably polished shepherds rod.

If a rod without roots, a rod that was from a dead tree and polished could come alive in God's presence, there is hope for you and any dead aspect of your life.

Numbers 17:1-8

To flourish in these uncertain times you will have to talk differently.

Job 22:29

Speak words of life not death.

Proverbs 18:21

Speak words of encouragement not words of hopelessness.

Speak words of courage not words of fear.

Speak positively, not negatively.

Proverbs 18:20

Speak the promises of God over your life not the false realities the enemy may be creating around you.

Speak God's word into your life and situation.

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
