Praise The Lord!

I was flipping through channels and I felt like God was like "turn on Praise The Lord", this show on TBN, like God really compelled me to watch, and I just caught on the end of a man named Therman Evans. He was talking about how when you worship you are getting smarter intellectually, through response to music and physically moving to a beat during worship! How cool! Then he went on to start explaining the importance of giving, and being a blessing to others. He said that when everyone in the church body gives, everyone receives. To also, look for opportunities to give to others.

God makes us prosperous to give to others, He blesses us so we can bless others. He fills us up to empty us, so we may go from glory to glory, while also being a blessing to others, and furthering them on in their journey.

When everyone gives, it's like a little slice of heaven down here on earth.

"...on earth as it is in Heaven..."

Helping yourself always involves helping someone else.

Therman, and the TV host were talking about his book, and all of the sudden the conversation turned to the economy, and how people in the Body of Christ were worried about "provisions" in hard times. Therman stops and says
"First of all, God is our source..." And I was like YES! God is our source! You walk by faith with Me. Just like in church Sunday: if you want to walk on water you have to get out of the boat! Sow and plant where you are, God told Isaac!

If you take care of God's program, He'll take care of yours. He knows your heart. You can count on the promises of God.

Then right at the end and some at the beginning Therman talked about this program he was doing, he was on the plane from Detroit to somewhere in a different time zone (sorry, I don't remember) and he looked at the itinerary. It said leave Detroit: 4:30 p.m., Arrive: 4:25 p.m.
It's like, once he left, he was already there.
BUT he still had to make the journey.
And that is totally how God works! You've already got the victory, you just have to make the journey and receive it.

This is the temporary end, I want to do more study on this. So stay tuned!

Get up and Go, do things for Jesus! Because your work will not be in vain!
