Progress is the best motivator. Even if you need to lose 100 pounds, it’s pretty exciting to see that you’ve lost 10 pounds. However, progress isn’t always apparent. Some things are very subjective unless you take the time to measure them.

 

For example, it may be hard to see a 10-pound weight loss in the mirror, but it’s pretty easy to see your progress on a bathroom scale.

 

Some goals can take a long time to accomplish. If you only measure yourself by whether or not you’ve achieved the goal,

Immediately, That's the word Immediately. In Matthew, 14:22, the Bible says Jesus made the Disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowd.

Now watch this, He told them ,' I'll, see you on the other side .' He gave them His word that they would make it. How many know He has given you His word that you will make it And then Paul comes along and clarifies it.

He says that none of these things neither height nor depth, neither death nor life, neith

Today we're gonna meditate on a passage from the Book of Jeremiah 17:7 & 8.

 

But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes, its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.

 

Another word for anchored is rooted, and I love what these verses say about being rooted. He will be like a tree planted by the

Many of the successful people of our time wake up very early. Why? This is because most people find that the earlier they wake up (within reason) the more productive they are with their day.

 

Are you striving to be more productive? If so, these tips can help you to get up early so that you can take advantage of those early morning hours and enjoy greater productivity.

Have you allowed other people to define you? To tell you who you are and who you aren't? Do you know how special you are in God's eyes? Understanding who you are in Christ will give you a strong foundation to build your life on. Your identity doesn't come from people or things. Your true identity is who God says you are!

Wars captivate and mobilize whole nations, especially if a nation's fate depended on winning a particular war. Though the ultimate fruits of war are horrifying, yet nothing of this world so dramatically spurs on people's creativity and diligent productivity.

In much the same way, Christ calls His people to wage war daily in the spiritual places by any and all means. Those who are blessed with spiritual discernment, who actively participate in the spiritual conflict at hand,

When we walk away from God, when we walk away from his Word, when we walk away from fellowship with him, we enter into a spiritual zone of problems. The spiritual always precedes the physical when things go awry in our lives, because we've walked away from God. They show up in our circumstances. When we move from him, then we see a devolution of life. We devolve into pain and aches and regrets and stresses that god never desired for us to have.

 

But what we've done is we've created spiritual di

According, to god the father you can't have him without having Jesus. There is no way for a person to have a personal relationship with Jehovah God, who desires to be the father of all men.
