Consistent. LOVE-ly. Those are just two adjectives that describe our magnificent Father! He gave His absolute best for us when He sent His son Jesus (John 3:16-17). You never have to be concerned about being disappointed because is character is unblemished, and that’s just a trait about Him that will always remain the same. When everything around us seems to be a little shaky or unsettled, He is the anchor of our souls, the calm and peaceful wind to our emotions. Relax and have faith IN His consistent love for you this morning. He adores you and has great plans for your live…and that will never change.

God is love and true love literally drives out fear. We should have a desire to represent Christ and do the same as His ambassadors here on earth. Only God can truly transform and perfect us in His perfect love because He IS love. Once this is done we are better qualified as His ambassadors. Selah.

Where can we go that is beyond our Father’s watchful eye? Is it even possible to stray outside of His care? Nope…it’s impossible. So, why delay in opening up to Him for wisdom, for direction…for peace? Not only is He omnipresent; He’s also omniscient - He knows all. So wherever you go, whatever is on your mindHiding from His presence is the equivalent of hiding in broad delay in the middle of an open field…pointless. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons He prods us to not only trust Him but to seek Him for direction (Proverbs 3:5-6).
🙌 He literally already knows the end from the beginning and can give you the wisdom and direction you need for your situation. In order to truly be “living” (active, full of life or vigor, functioning) epistles of our Father, our relationship with God cannot remain in a dormant state. We have to actively stir up the gift and rely on the Holy Spirit for day-to-day instructions and leading for the will of God to be in operation in and through our lives. Just like with any other meaningful relationship earthly relationship, God wants to be “present” AND “active” in your life. Stay sensitive to His voice so that He can be.

Regardless of what you have planned today and regardless of how your day goes, you can choose joy. Why? Because if you’re in the family of God, then joy - not just happiness - is a byproduct connected with the fruits of that relationship.
🙌 Our joy stems from the heart of thanksgiving that we have because of what our Father God and His Son Jesus has done for us! He loved us and counted us valuable enough to transfer us from the kingdom of darkness (where we belonged because of our sin nature) and into His kingdom. No longer are we in bondage to sin, fear or any of the fruits of the kingdom of darkness. We are privy to the benefits of the inhabitants of God’s kingdom including true joy and supernatural peace. Smile…you’re the responsibility of the King of King and Lord of Lords, who just happens to also to desire to be your loving Father. Place and leave your life and all your plans in His capable hands. He will never lead you astray. Happy Monday!

💪 We can draw our strength from God spiritually and sometimes it can manifest physically. We have the privilege of His boldness operating on the inside of us so that we can we can represent Him properly and share His love with the world. May we rest in the authority and power that we have through the power of His Son Jesus.

💎 You are so valuable to God! So much so, He was totally absorbed with your existence in the state of your physical pre-existence, starting in your mother’s womb (Jeremiah 1:5). It was here that He so carefully crafted both your physical characteristics and paired them together with the natural gifts and abilities He entrusted to you. He knows your name (Isaiah 43:1), and He cares about every detail of your life; He was willing to give it all so that you could live freely.
🙌 So, don’t you dare settle or give up on what you feel He has called you to in your divine purpose. Invest the time in prayer even throughout the day in getting on the same page with Him to ensure that the path you’ve been walking is what He ordained for you at the state of your “pre-existence”. Yes…you’re that big of a deal to Him. Trust that He loves you and that your future is secure when you place it in His hands. You were created for His glory!

Thank you Lord for loving us enough to give us your wisdom and for the privilege of representing you here on earth!

Need strength this morning? Woke up feeling anxious or worried? Well, there’s no need to stay that way. Cast all your cares on God; He is more than capable of handling them! God freely gives His children joy and in that joy they find the strength to face any situation.

Commit today to continue to grow, learn and study the things of God, so that you develop spiritually more than you did yesterday. Pray in tongues regularly so that the Holy Spirit - your Teacher - can instruct you and give wisdom and guidance where needed. What a merciful Father we serve! He wasn’t just interested in “saving” us (John 3:16), but after He did, He cared enough for us to “perfect” those things that concern us and use us for His will (Psalm 138:8)!
🙏 God please continue to work in and through us for your good pleasure and purpose. Thank you for the pleasure and privilege of being fit for your use, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

"But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." -Jude 1:20 NKJV
🤔 Never forget the importance of building up your spirit man daily. The Holy Spirit desires to lead you. Not only is the Holy Spirit our Guide, but He is also our Comforter, Advocate and Intercessor as well (John 14:26). We don’t have to live life trying to make decisions on our own. Our Father God loved us so much, He sent the Holy Spirit to us teach us everything that we need to know. Not only can He bring back to remembrance those things we need to be reminded of, He operates like an internal compass giving us insight on where to go, what to say and when. Take advantage of the Help that has been sent to you, and use it! He loves you, and He’ll never steer you wrong.

If you hadn’t already found something to be grateful for today, here’s one thing. 🙌🏽What a glorious day it will be to see our Lord’s return! Until then, let’s honor God with our time and make every minute count. Walk in love and encourage one another in our daily walk with Christ. We’re in this together and part of the same family. So, embrace the power of that relationship and keep each other lifted up. One Team. One Family. #love #vcccharlotte #pastorrobyngool #robyngool #marilyngool #charlotte #gratitude
🤔 Take a moment to pause and reflect on the mercy of God this morning. His mercies are indeed new EVERY morning, but He clearly demonstrated it through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus. It’s nothing that we did in and of ourselves, but through our salvation in Jesus, we have been justified in God’s eyes. Not only do we have the gift of eternal life, but we have the benefit of having an actual relationship with Him and the privilege of receiving direction and comfort through the Holy Spirit on a daily basis.
🙌 God’s love for you is profound (John 15:13), and He desires for you to live victoriously in life. Just trust Him for direction and favor and be sure to give Him the glory every step of the way.
