HAPPY VALENTINES

EXPERIENCE VICTORY THIS DAY!

Faith and Blessing go hand in hand, partnering in God’s plan for you.
*Faith always leads and blessing always follows.
We must be willing to obey God’s Will and do exactly what He asks us to do, no matter what we think or how we feel.

“Master,” Simon replied, “we worked hard all last night and didn’t catch a thing. But if you say so, I’ll let the nets down again.” Luke 5:5

The Lord is telling us that we cannot experience victory unless we go out further than we have never gone before.
*If we continually stay at the shallow side, we will continue to experience mediocrity, which is not God’s will for us.
We must take the first step and continue to walk on water, during this walking we will experience adversity and trials of many kinds, but we still must push until we reach our deep, where we will receive the Lord’s blessing.

*Have you ever felt tempted to look at your accomplishments with pride as if you were the reason for your success?

*Have you ever thought your prosperity was due to your ingenuity?

*Has your material success been a testimony to others that God is the ruler of all aspects of your life, even the material side?

Joseph’s greatest test was not his temptation to be bitter against his brothers.
*It wasn’t the sexual temptation that came inside Potiphar’s house.
*It wasn’t even the discouragement of years of imprisonment for being wrongfully accused.
**It was the temptation of prosperity and ownership. Once he was elevated, he was given choices that he never had before. It was totally up to him as to which choice he would make.

Stewardship reveals what we believe about God and ourselves.
Not every man can carry a full cup. Sudden elevation frequently leads to pride and a fall.
Keep pressing even though your efforts are met with opposition.  The end result will be worth all of your energy to break through.  Refuse  to get discouraged or decide to just give up.  The Lord is with you to bring you  through to victory.  Be strong and courageous.

Deuteronomy 31:6 “Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid  of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not  leave you nor forsake you.”

Heavenly Father teach me that I must go out into the deep with you, where I will experience you than like never before. .Amen

Christianity is not a religion it’s a relationship with Christ.

John 17:3 And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.
