Renewing/Refreshing

 Good Monday morning family. I'm so Blessed to be able to write to you again this morning. I feel like this will be an all day Message as the world allows me to to deliver it. It is the first of the month so that tends to get people out and about and moving. 

I just got back from my Men's Summit men's conference in South Lake, TX. at Gateway Church's main campus. It was fantastic and so needed. I can go multiple directions as to what to say, there was so much that touched our hearts and minds that was spoken over this weekend. The over all Unity in the Body of Christ is definitely one that touches my soul, especially with men. No offence to you women. I know it has to be a blessing for you all as well to receive the same in a similar setting with a woman's conference, this is so needed for both parties. We need that time away and that time of refreshing which one another's same sex provides for us. It is so refreshing and so renewing to feel the renewing of the spirit within each of us as we come from a conference or just a weekly meeting such as this. We need to take the scriptures to heart such as Matthew 28:19 - 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: We must all stand up and do the work that Jesus commanded us to. Are you discipling? Are you Sharing the Word?

Family I feel a refreshing that I think each of us soulfully needs. Look at Pastor Troy lately, he has come back after his sabbatical and is just so centered and focused on where the Lord is leading him, but not just him folks. As his congregates we are all on this receiving of what Holy Spirit is leading through him. There is such a renewing and a refreshing that we all need. Romans 12:2 - 2 Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. We must all take the time and focus on our direction. Is all we do the right direction the right thing for my life. Is what I'm doing God or is it just simply good. I don't wanna be doing just good. I feel good could lead me to a place and destination I don't wanna be. Matthew 7:21-23 - 21 “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. 22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ 23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’ 

Lord! Lord! Please keep me in your good graces. Let me always seek to know you more and more as I grow. Family! We don't wanna be these people that are turned away. Take time to seek God, on your own, with others of like minded Saints. Most importantly Be led by Holy Spirit. Kick your flesh to the side and take emotions out of the equation, a decision must be made. Follow Him or Not! Simple as that. Are you taking the time to be fed? Are you not forsaking the assembling of the saints? Are you in the Word? Are you in prayer daily? Are you fellowshipping with Like minded saints? Are you getting renewed/ Refreshed regularly?

Father I love you so much, thank you for the opportunity to be renewed and refreshed in you regularly. Father I ask that you always free us for the opportunity to do so. Father give us a spirit of truth and a spirit of direction that only allows us to see you and not the world Father. Father keep our eyes fixed on you and show us clearly that which is not you. Father we wish to seek only you and your will in our lives, let your will and not ours be done on a daily basis. Thank you Jesus for your love and Sacrifice for each of us. Thank you Holy Spirit to continually guide us to you. We ask to continually receive a new Renewing/Refreshing in our walk with you. We ask all this in the Holy precious beautiful graceful mighty name above all other names that have ever been, Christ Jesus, Amen!
