Noah walked with God. He valued what God valued. While everyone else thoughts were with only evil, and they were obsessed about eating, drinking, and marriage, he moved with godly fear to build an ark because God told him to. To walk with the Father is to agree with Him by valuing what He values.

Give no room for familiarity if you want to walk with God. Abraham would have killed the Isaac if he did not maintain hear from the same God whi told him to sacrifice Isaac. Walking with God will require us to make sudden changes. This will require us to sustain the flexibility and humility in our hearts continually. He is a lion and a lamb. He is the beginning and also the end.

Nothing significant is achieved with passivity and shallowness, which includes walking with our Father. The life cycle of many friendships is brief because the parties include did not want to go deep with each other. The more we go deep with each other, the more meaningful the relationship and the more difficult seperatation is. Deep calls to those who are deep. There is always more, desire to wan...

To walk with God is to please God. Faith is to act accordingly only because God says so. Abraham moved because God told him to. Noah built an ark because God told him to. Moses went to face pharaoh only because God told him to. To walk with God is to do something because God told you to.

To walk with the Father will require us to walk in the light. To walk in the light is to be honest and open. Before a health professional can treat a condition, the patient will need to be honest and open about their history or activities leading to their current state in order to make an accurate diagnosis, same with God. No play acting if we will have to walk with the Father

Desiring to walk with the Father should be core to everyone who is a child of God. The starting point for everyone seeking to walk with God is brokenness; ground zero. Regardless of what you have achieved in this life, you must count it all but loss in order to walk with the Father.

We lose things we have toiled and labored for if we don't continue therein. If a pregnant lady gets tired in the 8th month, she terminates the baby she has gone through a lot for because she didn't continue in the 9th month. Continue in the truth, continue in God's love, and continue in fellowship.

Regardless of the successess choked yesterday, it will all go down the drain if what was done yesterday is not continued to be done today. Continue in faith, continue to serve, continue to pause, and continue to fight against temptations. Continue in them to see the results thereof.

Results come from continuity, and that result is sustained by continuity. Many great endeavors are no longer at the top or even exist because there was no sustained investment. Regardless of the past investment made in any relationship without a sustained investment nothing substantial will come out of it. Continue to dream, continue to give, continue to pray and continue to forgive.

The parable of the sower teaches us the importance of location. Every living thing has a unique environment that is key for its survival. God gave Abraham a specific mountain to sacrifice Isaac. The prosperity you are searching for will only be found if you are in the right place; God's will for your life. Where are you?

Many would have considered the younger brother to be ambitious and making strides while his older brother as one marking time in the father's house. Joseph was closer to fulfill prophesy as a prionser than in his father’s house. That which we are looking for can only be found in God's will. Find it and stay there

The younger son was having the best possible life, yet he felt like there was more he was missing out on. His desperation was so intense that not many days after he left home to a far away country. His desperation made him despise the amazing life he was having. He had everything yet felt like he had nothing.

The price to be a discple of Jesus is costly. Jesus says we need to say NO to ourselves, daily except the painful and shameful aspect of God's will for us and imitate him. Jesus did not negotiate with the rich young rule who had to sell everything inorder to follow him. Are you His disciple?

Where is your faith? A question Jesus asked his disciples regardless of the many miracles they had witnesses. We so easily displace our faith in Jesus and sadly for others they place their faith in a family background, education, politics or someone else. Many even place their faith in religious obligations but not in the person of Jesus. Place your faith in Jesus!

Jesus did not miss words when he made such utterances. And for us that have claimed to accept him not just as our savior but our lord, we must be careful to take heed to these words and let them be a reality in our everyday living. Do good to those that hate you.

The realities of life can make us question if it worth to living for God. Elijah and Asaph seem worned out when they notice how the evil prosper. However, God assures us that the sufferrings of the present age that we as his children go through are not worthy to compared to the glory that shall be revealed in us. Indeed eye has not seen nor ear heard the goodies God has in store for us.

Elijah grew weary because he thought he was the only one in Israel not worshipping Baal. We tend to think everyone is messing up, forgetting that not everyone is a prodigal son and not everyone is a foolish virgin. There are "Noahs" "Calebs" and "Joshuas". There are good spouses, just employers, honest employees and helpful friends.

How can a man whose advice was compared to the counsel of God end up committing suicide? We are our greatest hindrance to our breakthrough and bitterness though subtle has a lasting crippling effect on what God can do in our lives

Bitterness causes us to fail to enjoy of the grace of God. It stirs up trouble in our lives and those connected to us and it defiles others. Regardless of the justifiable reason one may have to be bitter it destroys beyond what one would imagine. Get rid of bitterness.

How would a President react to find a picture of an animal in a state office with the inscription " His Excellency ..."? Idolary is ascribing something God made as God. The soldiers who witness the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, show to deny it because of money. Judas, Gehazi, Balaam and many others messed up their lives because they made money their idol. The idol of money is one we cannot...

Idolatry provokes God's jealously. An idol is anything God gives us that we can't give back to him. It is what we sacrifice for that is not God. Idolatry is the most irrational act; despite the first hand experience the Israelites had they decided to worship a calf from jewelry God gave them and they made.

Listen to the other side before judging. It is no doubt that there are many circumstances we do not and can not control. However, some of the predicament people experience often leaves us wondering how there could be a good God ruling in the affairs of men. We forget that having a will is not only a privilege but a responsibility. How did the great king Saul have a terrible end to an amazing oppor...

It takes humility to be an imitator and it will cost you humility to enjoy anything and everything God has for you. If Jesus could not escape the humility test to be exalted neither will we. That great image of the future you have will cost you humility. Be humble!

There are many false teachers and prophets. We need to be attentive and guard jealously what we expose ourselves to. We need to realize the responsibility we have to ensure that we be no longer children toss to and from by every wind of doctrine

There are many false teachers and prophets. We need to be attentive and guard jealously what we expose ourselves to. We need to realize the responsibility we have to ensure that, we be no longer children toss to and from by every wind of doctrine.
