The greatest sign of commitment is discipline!

While many are aspiring to be Doctors, Lawyers, Teachers, developing a closer walk with God, being married, having children, job promotions and whatever else; the ingredient call discipline is usually absent from their equation in achieving their desires.

To be discipline suggests that you have thoroughly considered the principles, rules and regulation of whatever it is that you're getting yourself into and at the same time decided that you would subject yourself to the rules, regulations and principles that accompany and govern that situation in an effort, to achieve your intended desires..... This my friend now becomes the personification of commitment!

So based on the above understanding let's take note of the following scenario. Are you involved with someone that speaks of how committed they are, however you've observe a major lack of discipline in their life? Well my friend this is called "putting the carriage before the horse", meaning, a horse pulls a carriage but it is impossible for a carriage to pull a horse. Therefore commitment will always be the end result of the consistent acts of discipline! In other words discipline is the engine that generates commitment.............

Discipline folks are not surface people, meaning their calculations of any situation is based on its surface and depth. It will be as a result of this overall assessment that they will then determine if they are capable of disciplining themselves to produce commitment to whatever it is they're planning on attaching or binding themselves to.

Uncommitted folks are just the opposite, they are always ready to leap before they look and consider after they would have act! Fortunately, you don't have to possess a spirit of discernment or be a prophet to recognize an uncommitted person. uncommitted folks are far more talkers than doers, unstable, always with an excuse, rarely able to fulfill promises, classic disappointers, always with big dreams and big ideas engulfed with big talk but it's usually followed with little to no action.

These folks are agents of Satan to keep you and themselves delayed or setback in life. Scripture tells us that a double minded (indecisive) man is unstable in not some but all of his ways and always armed with excuses to defend his instability to be discipline to achieve commitment, James 1:8, Scripture goes on to say, "He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough" Proverbs 28:19. The understanding of this scripture is suggesting that the one who works with discipline shall have a harvest at the end of the day, but the one that follows and believe in those that are big talkers, big dreamers with no action and gives no evidence of discipline or commitment in their lives. Then, it will be such persons that's holding their hand and guiding them on the road to poverty and a non-progressive life,

The bottom line is this my friend, if you want to be true to yourself and really determine if the carriage has been placed in front of the horse in your case with Mr. or Ms. Committed, then stop listening to their promises and exaggerated talk, now begin to mentally compare what they have said with the disciplines of life and this is how you will determine that their talk of commitment is just that, a talk and far from a reality.

"Ye shall know them by their fruits" Matthew 7:16.

Dreams Representing Delays pending For A Person's Life

So this morning, I had a dream that I was not at all surprised. In my dream, I dreamt that I was at an airport with one piece of luggage. This piece of luggage was on wheels, and I was pushing it towards my gate.

Anyway, just before I got to my gate, there was a narrow passage that I had to enter that would actually take me to the gate. I can recall placing the luggage before me, pushing it through this narrow passage. Within a few seconds, we were at the entrance where other people were waiting for the flight to be called, but I could not locate my luggage for some strange reason. I can recall frantically looking for my luggage. I saw similar luggage, but there were other names written on the identification tags when I inspected it.

Two police
officers were standing at the rear of my flight gate area, but the site where the police were located seems to be a lost and found area for luggage. I entered this small space again, searching frantically for my luggage but had no success finding it. I can also recall that just before the dream ended, I was perplexed and frustrated that I could not find my luggage and all of my personal and much-needed stuff was in there.

INTERPRETATION:
================

I started out by saying that this dream was more or less expected. My reason for saying this is since I have several engagements on the horizon and based on the contents of the dream it is clearly revealing an overall understanding of pending delay, coupled with frustration and fatigue.

The dream started off with me being at an airport. An airport in a dream symbolizes preparation and transition. My luggage in the dream that contained my clothing and personal effects would represent the tools needed to execute my future assignments. So far, the dream is revealing from a spiritual perspective that I am fully prepared to complete my coming tasks. However, the dream will show an attack pending in the spirit realm, specifically against those assignments.

As you would recall, I mentioned that I was rolling my luggage towards my flight gate, but before getting to my flight gate, there was a narrow passage that I had to go through and it was only when I came through this narrow passage to get to my flight gate I noticed that the luggage that was initially in front of me went missing. Now, because I did not see anyone take the bags and the luggage just disappeared, this part of the dream is now revealing that the source behind this pending attack is spiritual, and the leading spirit in this attack is the spirit of delay!!

Obviously, suppose all of my personal belongings are in my only piece of luggage. In that case, it is almost impossible for me to perform or complete my assignments where I am headed, clearly revealing the spirit of delay. Secondly, I mentioned that just before the dream ended, I felt a sense of confusion and fatigue, of course, due to not being able to locate my luggage. Confusion and frustration are the accompanying spirits that work along with the spirit of delay to further incapacitate the dreamer.

Well, because of my knowledge of dreams, upon waking, I went into intense prayer, declaring directly to the spirit realm by canceling and rebuking the dream and commanding that its spiritual contents will never manifest in reality. I have decided to share this particular dream, especially with those looking forward to great future expectations such as promotions. Dreams such as what I have mentioned clearly reveal to the dreamer what they cannot see in the spirit realm pending against them under normal circumstances.

Check Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself

Your lack of self-control and rotten attitude has cost you friends, promotions, favor, opportunities, and once open doors.

Your famous sayings such as, "This is who I am, take it or leave it," "I don't care what others think about me," "My haters are jealous of me," and "They can talk all they want" has caused you not to advance and remain anchored in your current dislike position. You have convinced yourself that because you're loud, arrogant, boisterous, and demanding, folks must honor and respect you.

My friend, if God were to show you the many opportunities you've missed out on because of your lack of discipline and self-control, you would probably hate yourself. Your attitude has clearly been determining your altitude, and based on where you are in life right now is a direct result of your unwelcome attitude.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself. While others appear to be laughing with you, the truth is they're laughing at you, and for the most part, they're spellbound by your immaturity and your inability to display respect for yourself and others.

"He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls" Proverbs 25:28. A city whose walls are broken down suggests that there are no forms of protection, anything or anyone can traffic in and out, no law, rule or principle to be guided by. It is equivalent to one who has no authority over their own spirit. Their lives are in complete and utter chaos..............

They believe life's rules, laws, and principles do not apply to them. However, the end result of their rebellious spirit has left them bitter, angry, and frustrated. In fact, no one wants to deal with them.

Friends, if you feel your life is going nowhere, or everyone else is progressing except you, before you place the blame on anyone, please, take an inventory of your attitude!

HUMILITY WILL ALWAYS BE THE PRIMARY REQUIREMENT BEFORE ONE IS HONORED, Proverbs 15:33

IS FAILURE REALLY FAILING FOR THE BELIEVER?

Is failure really failing for the Believers of Jesus Christ? I am convinced that "failure" for the Believer is not the same as the secular understanding or interpretation the world defines it as.

From a secular perspective, failing means missing an assigned mark or goal or not meeting a specific qualification.

Failure for the Believer means that something is missing, or whatever it is that we've considered being a failure is just part of a whole. Bottom line, SOMETHING IS MISSING OR NOT COMPLETED!

Indulge me for a few minutes as I unveil my understanding of this mystery. Biblical spiritual law dictates the following, "And we know (The Believers) that all things (Good and Bad) work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28

To understand this mystery of failure concerning the Believer. the key resides in the phrase of the scripture mentioned above, "ALL THINGS." All things are a combination of good and evil. Of course, as Christians, we've been erroneously taught to assume that "all things" suggest only good things. So, in essence, this scripture says that GOOD+BAD or BAD+GOOD either way will=GOOD FOR THE BELIEVER! In any scenario, THE PHRASE "all things" suggests that no matter how the situation presents itself to the Believer. Its conclusion must benefit the Believer.

Therefore, if what you're experiencing does not equal good, IT IS AN INDICATOR THAT IT'S NOT THE END!

I want to say to someone this morning who feels or has felt as if you're a failure or others have labeled you as a failure, the term failure for you is just a red flag SHOUTING.......... Something is missing, and for what you or others have concluded as a failure, the proper connection must be attached to your "failure," which will eventually produce good for you!

To seal this mystery, let's look at another spiritual law to bring this baby home....... "In everything (Good & bad) give thanks: for this is the WILL OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS CONCERNING YOU" 1 Thessalonians 5:18. In other words, we must view the fortunate and the unfortunate experiences in our lives as a part of the overall plan of God to manufacture the end result of good for our lives.

As I said, failure is a good thing if we understand it from a biblical perspective which will always indicate that either something is missing or whatever we've supposedly "failed" at is not completed, or it's not the end of the matter......... But in any event, good or bad, we must thank God because not only is it his will for us at that particular time, but it MUST CONCLUDE IN GOOD FOR US, THE BELIEVERS OF JESUS CHRIST...........

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part, but when that which is perfect (complete) is come (full understanding), then that which was in part shall be done away with 1 Corinthians 13:9-10.

My people are failing because they lack available knowledge, Hosea 4:6........

Familiarize Yourself With The God Of The Scriptures

I cannot emphasize how important it is to read, study, and research those things that you believe in and are committed to. Reading was never something I initially enjoyed before accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and savior. 

Since my conversion to Christianity many years ago, I have significantly invested in reading. As a result, I have accumulated many books that have increased my knowledge base.
Yes! Most of the books I have read over the years came about via my experiences. My experiences provoked me to not only want to know more about my challenges but, at the same time, provoked me to educate myself concerning the origin of my challenges.

Scripture is clear when it says, "Study to show thyself approved unto GOD!" "And that we ought to work out our own salvation."

The reason for posting this post today is to point out to you that if you don't study scripture and seek God for yourself, which in reality is the process of developing a relationship with Him. Then you run the risk of becoming conformed to man-made religious systems, traditions, philosophies, and the eloquence of words by certain spiritual leaders with minimal, if anything, to do with The Holy Bible. Like yourself, I am at a point where I'm confronted daily with real issues, which rhymes, clichés, false prophecies, protocols, and church politics JUST CAN NOT FIX! The reality is WE ARE IN DESPERATE NEED OF THE WORD OF GOD!!!!! Unfortunately, in today's society, we are hearing and being introduced to everything except the word of God.

Indulge me for a few seconds as I released to you what God has released to me. I am not shoving this understanding down your throat. Instead, I admonish you to ponder it and allow the word to do what it was designed to do.

"Thus says the LORD, "Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the LORD. He will be like a bush in the desert, and he won't SEE WHEN GOOD COMES. He will dwell in parched places in the wilderness, a land of salt, without inhabitants" Jeremiah 17:5-6.

Wow! Now isn't this interesting? God is making it abundantly clear to all that will pay attention to his word that we are automatically under a CURSE when we replace him with the ideologies, philosophies, and the like of man. In fact, it goes on to say that when we place our trust in man and turn away from him (God), EVERYTHING DRIES UP IN OUR LIVES.............. But more importantly and notably, WE LOSE OUR ABILITY TO RECOGNIZE WHEN GOOD COMES OUR WAY. Now, please pay close attention to what the scripture is saying. It did not say God would not provide good while under this curse. Instead, it said we will not be able to recognize, decipher or understand when what is good for us shows up.

The reality here is you could become so bound to a particular Preacher, Pastor, Apostle, Evangelist, church, or whatever, that whatever they say becomes final to you. You will not see the need to study anymore, read anymore or search the scriptures anymore TO SEE IF WHAT THEY ARE SAYING REALLY DOES LINE UP WITH WHAT THE WORD OF GOD SAYS. Instead, your trust is so saturated in a person, church, system, or tradition, and, as a result of this, WHEN GOD DOES SPEAK AND SUPPLY YOU WITH THE GOOD YOU WERE ASKING FOR OR HE KNOWS THAT YOU NEED, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE IT WHEN IT COMES........... Mighty God, please help us!

My friend, allow God to speak to your spirit today. To someone today, are your conversations saturated with what " your Pastor says" or what God has said? Are you more concerned or afraid of your Pastor seeing you do wrong or God who sees you continually? When you do give, are you giving for the sake of your religious leader, or are you giving to help others less fortunate and to promote the kingdom of God on the earth? I am not condemning anyone; all I am simply saying it is easy to idolize a person or even an organization or building structure to the extent that you subtly see them as your God while ignorantly not giving sincere attention to the God of all creation.

Finally, your unanswered prayers, hardship, and what appears as if nothing is happening for you could be a RESULT OF THE MISPLACING OF YOUR TRUST AND COMMITMENT IN MAN INSTEAD OF GOD. THUS, YOU'VE ENABLED A CURSE UPON YOURSELF THAT HAS DISABLED YOU IN RECOGNIZING THE GOOD GOD HAS BEEN REPEATEDLY SENDING YOUR WAY

My words of wisdom on this day are simply this, RE-VISIT WHERE YOU'VE PLACED YOUR TRUST AND COMMITMENT. It just might reveal or even explain the mystery surrounding your misery.

Spiritual Oppression

For many believers of Jesus Christ, you are currently experiencing "spiritual oppression". Spiritual oppression is where you find supernatural evil occurrence taking place in one's life such as enormous unexpected bills, vehicle constantly having to visit the repair shop, being held down in your bed by unseen forces, your bed shaking by an unseen force, trouble erupting in the home for foolish reasons, constant insomnia. Unexplained accidents in the workplace that leads to suspension or reprimands, monies going missing off your bank accounts, panic and anxiety attacks, unidentified or unexplained sickness, severe depression to the point where it feels as if there is a literal weight on your shoulders. Constant confusion in your mind accompanied with irritating forgetfulness, strange noise and cracking sounds in your home particularly at night time.

Consistent or sporadic evil dreams/nightmares, an intense feeling of fear and unwarranted worry, always thinking about death and the loss of your livelihood. My friend if you are experiencing any of the above experiences that just all of a sudden popped up in your life then you are certainly under "spiritual oppression".

The whole idea of spiritual oppression is to overwhelm its victim in such a way that it literally disables his faith. As a result, the believer is saturated with fear, anxiety, doubt, unbelief and questions the word of God. As a result, the victim's prayer life also becomes disable which now leaves its victim in a state of utter confusion and an erroneous reliance on self; this my friend sets the course for self-destruction and an uncanny state of FRUSTRATION!

Specific prayers are your keys out of this overwhelming attack against your spiritual walk............. You must begin an aggressive counter attack inclusive of a minimum of a two-day fast, praying against the spirits of fear, confusion, anxiety and every other spirit that is associated with this spiritual oppression.

Make no mistake knowledge without application is still considered spiritual ignorance.

Basic Rules And Principles That Governs Our Dreams

God's original plan for man in terms of man's position in the earth would be found in Genesis 1:28, "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth".

Based on the above scripture, several things are made crystal clear regarding God's original intent for mankind. Primarily, we were created to advance, increase, multiply, and overpower whatever challenges our progress. Secondly, God gave man and not spirits dominion over the earth.

On the other hand, Satan's plan for man is quite the opposite. Scripture says the following, "The thief (which is Satan) comes only, to steal, kill, and destroy" John 10:10. These are crucial points to stick a pin in when it comes to our dreams. These principles set the bases of all dreams, meaning that despite how complicated or straightforward a dream may present itself, the above principles should always be our GPS as to how we navigate to the accurate interpretation of our dreams.

So, to put it in simple terms, the purpose of our dreams are:

a) To reveal to us what's pending in the unseen world (the spirit world) or to reveal to us the root causes of the mysteries surrounding our lives.

b) For spirit beings to covertly or overtly forge covenants to manifest their purpose/will in our natural world

With that said, the first thing we should do when attempting to understand our dreams is to decipher if our dream is from God or Satan. We calculate this by using Genesis 1:28 and John 10:10. If the dream is from God, then the contents of the dream will inevitably be about advancing, promoting, replenishing, etc., or it will be about things that will benefit us. On the other hand, if the dream is consistent with things being taken from us, stuff going missing, death, destruction, etc., clearly, such a dream is from the kingdom of darkness.

In either case, because God has given man and not spirits dominion in and of the earth, spirits cannot just do what they want to do whenever they desire to do in the earth. Instead, human assistance, but more importantly human approval, be it covertly or overtly is a MUST to manifest the will of spirit beings in the earth. Surprisingly this also includes God. Now I know that many of you are challenged by the fact that I said that God needs man approval or permission to operate in the earth, and I am sure your reasoning would be God needs no one's permission to operate anywhere simply because he's God. Well, aside from the scriptures that clearly indicate that the earth and its responsibility was given to man, Psalm 115:16 and that God gave man dominion or rule over the affairs of the earth, Genesis 1:26,28, every book of the Bible reveals this principle.

In fact, if one were to review scripture carefully, whatever God did on the earth, it was never outside the consultation of man. For example, I am sure you'll agree that God is all-powerful, right? So why did he use Moses to free the Hebrew people from Egyptian bondage? Couldn't he, as God, just kill Pharaoh and his armies and took his people from Egyptian bondage straight to the promised land? Why did God not kick down the walls of Jericho but instead used Joshua to follow a set of instructions to have the walls of Jericho destroyed? These are but minimal examples compared to the many examples demonstrating God's laws and principles of man ruling the earth, and for any spirit beings to participate in earth's affairs, the ultimate approval or cooperation must be approved by man.

Satan, on the other hand, understands his limitations and restrictions as it relates to his performance on the earth. Well, we need not go any further that Genesis 3. Satan knew quite well that for him to carry out his evil objectives in the earth he MUST again secure man's approval; in Genesis 3 he manipulates Eve by encouraging her to disobey God's command as it relates to the forbidden tree they were not to eat from and obey his suggestion, which legally opens the door for him. Well, we all know what happened as a result of that incident, right?

So, in essence, spirits would either influence, persuade, encourage, tempt, entice or lure human beings to advance their will or objective on the earth through securing covenants between themselves and human beings. This is how things manifest from the spirit realm to our natural world. So, about our dreams, if your dream is consumed with killing, stealing, or destroying, then make no mistake that the contents of such dreams are revealing evil spirits hoping to get you to agree to such a dream to secure an evil covenant between you and the evil spirit so that they can legally manifest their malicious intent in your life and by extension in the earth. If the dreamer does not challenge such events in his dreams or cancel and rebuke the dream upon waking, then the manifestation of that evil covenant will prevail in reality.

The reality is, upon waking from a dream, you must first ask yourself, what covenant did I agree to? This is the primary reason why it is a must that you remember your dreams because you've either knowingly or unknowingly forged a covenant in your dream that may pan out something very terrible for you later.

A simple prayer to pray upon waking from a dream that either you didn't understand, or you just don't remember is: "God in the name of your son Jesus Christ, if whatever I have dreamed was of you, then I come incomplete agreement with your plans for my life. However, if my dream was not from you then I cancel, rebuke, and renounce all evil covenants that may have been covertly secured in my dream in the name of your son Jesus Christ!
