His Plan

I believe God is at our side even when it is our agenda that we are working hard at. But let’s not forget He has a plan for us, a plan created before we were born. It is that plan that allows us to be a part of His agenda. That is what we were created to do. ~ DickEvans.org

God Knows

When God has a task for us to do, He does not look at our worldly training or experience. He does not require a certain degree before selecting us. He knows our potential. He knows better than we do what we are capable of accomplishing. If He calls us out to perform a task, no matter how difficult or impossible it may seem, we can do it. He will give us whatever is needed to see it through. ~ DickEvans.org

When Tempted

We are believers following Jesus. We know better than to slip back into our old ways of doing evil. So when tempted to do the things we used to do, the things our old nature was comfortable with, we must obey God because we are His children. ~ DickEvans.org

The Light

John 8:12
Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

We think about turning on a light and our mind goes to flicking a switch. That is what we do daily. We turn lights on in our house to be able to see. We turn our headlights on in our vehicle to be able to see as we drive at night.

Our natural eyes do not see well when we are surrounded by darkness. We need the light of day from the sun or we need artificial light to brighten up a room.

Yet even in that bright room there can be darkness. It is in another realm. It is spiritual darkness. It is evil.

The light you bring when you walk into the room exposes the evil and drives it out. It exposes the love of Jesus you bring everywhere your feet take you.

His light shines through you as your smile lights up a room. His light shine as Holy Spirit speaks truth through your lips. His light shines as you lay your hands on the sick and they are healed.

Just like a tiny flashlight turned on it a dark room, Holy Spirit lights up a room as you walk into it. His presence overpowers any evil that may be trying to manifest.

Believe it and receive it.

When God Teaches

When God is teaching us, He may be moving us from one place to another in our thinking. We must be ready to let that happen. Some even switch churches because they don’t like what He is revealing to them through the messages given from the platform. They look for a place that teaches them what they desire to learn instead of staying at the place where He has them. ~ DickEvans.org

Believe

But all who believe in Jesus are made right with God. There is no qualification except to believe. We do not have to work hard trying to obey the old law to be made right in His eyes. We just have to believe in Him; believe in Jesus. ~ DickEvans.org

Success

The first step to success is in understanding that it is God’s plan we are to work on, not ours. To begin we need to realize He won’t get us to the next step until we can accept things just the way they are. It is then He places into motion the next phase of His plan. ~ DickEvans.org
