THERE ARE NO MYSTERIES IN GOD-ONLY ON REVEAL TRUTH
Those who have spent their life studying the human brain tell me that the average person uses a tiny percentage of their brain in their daily routine.
To add to that thought, even the most intelligent men and women among us still use a tiny percentage of the brain that God gave us to think and create with.
With that picture in mind, let me speak of our spiritual life and the revelation within us because of the God who dwells within us. Yet, as spiritual beings, we use a tiny part of the revelation and understanding of the kingdom that we are a part of.
It's like a child who goes into a giant toy store and stops at the first one they find, spending the rest of the day with one toy.
We have found salvation, that is true, yet some churches and people you may interact with consider that to be the only toy in the store.
In my early days of travel, if I did not preach a salvation sermon, they considered me to have missed the mark.
For those of us who are Pentecostal, charismatic, spirit-filled believers, we have our list of favorite subjects that we cycle through as we meet together. All of them are important and so precious that I would never want to do without them. Yes, like the little boy in the toy store, we may spend so much time recycling or reviewing those things that we already know that we never discover any fresh revelation from the father.
In reality, there are no mysteries in God, only unrevealed truth. If you'll be honest with yourself and let your spirit have a voice, you will hear a cry: Father, reveal yourself in your fullness to me.

THE ROCK OR SAND WHICH WILL IT BE
The gift of life is so precious and yet so fleeting. It seems like just a flash of time, and we are older, and things have changed so much. Because of our busy lifestyle and the pressure of raising families, we often don't appreciate the days as they slip by. Only when we look back, do moments in time become precious, and we regret not savoring those moments.
You build your life on something, whether a solid foundation, like a rock, or a shifting weak foundation, like sand. Jesus told us that the person that built their house upon the sand, their house will fall when the winds and the storm came in. But those who build their house upon the rock we know to be Jesus Christ will stand despite the strong winds and waves that come.
It's always possible to readjust our foundations because when we deal with spiritual matters, the Scriptures tell us, "Today is the day of salvation.' There is no age limit on coming to Christ, and when you do, your foundation shifts from the sands of life to the rock, Christ Jesus, that will never fail you.
The promise, directly from Jesus, in the quotation above is that your house will not fall when founded on Him, the solid rock.

WHY I DON'T READ THE BIBLE ANYMORE
"I know this must come as a shock to you, seeing that I am Mr. Average Christians in America. First of all, I have already read the Bible, so what's new? Secondly, listening to my favorite preacher online gives me all the words I need. And, after all, it is hard to understand. One of my friends in the small group reminded me the other day that it is all about dead people, so what's the point?
However, on the positive side, I plan to start rereading it around Christmas sometime."
A few days ago, I was home alone while Arlis visited our son in another city. I took advantage of the time and reviewed some of my notes, preparing for today's video. It wasn't quite lunchtime, so I pulled out the apple fritter I purchased at the grocery store on the way home. Of course, I had to have some coffee with that, then I found the wheat thins that were left over from yesterday, so I nibbled on some of those. But this time, I was hankering for an ice cream slice, so down the Hatch that went also.
It wasn't long before I noticed it was just about lunchtime, but by now, I wasn't hungry, so I kept going through my paperwork. After all, there are some cookies in the cupboard I could get.
I heard the other day from a doctor on the Internet. That sugar is just about as addictive as heroin. I don't know about the heroin part, but I sure know about the sugar part. I can wake up in the morning and dream of having my ice cream slice in the evening. No matter how you look at that, it's just plain wrong.
When we go to church and get entertainment for the soul instead of food for the spirit, it becomes addictive. When we feed the soul snack food, such as good fellowship around good food and baseball games, it gets addictive.
Of course, I am aware and even in agreement that all of these things are wonderful, fun, and good for us, but when they replace our spiritual food, such as the word of God and the moving of the Holy Spirit, we miss the point.
If you feed yourself on "the ice cream slices of life" instead of the good word of God, you also will stop reading the Bible because you have satisfied your soul but not your spirit.
Feed your spirit the good word of God regularly, and you will become the man and woman you have desired to be since you were converted.

TRAVELING LIGHT
I have traveled around the world several times and in multiple countries. I have gone by airplane, train, automobile, boat, motorcycle, and tricycle. I have even walked a fair amount of distance to get to my destination.
In all the miles I've traveled and all the miserable places I've endured as I traveled, I have learned a few things that have helped me over the years.
On my first international trip, I loaded up suitcases like I was leaving town for good. I tried to imagine every possible problem or activity and made room for it in my three bags.
Not realizing the mode of transportation that I would encounter and needing a valet to help carry my abundance of luggage, I had trouble. I didn't open two of my suitcases on this first trip.
If you know human nature very well, you've probably already guessed that I didn't learn just from one trip. But after a few of those experiences, I learned to travel light. Running through the airport in Japan trying to catch my flight home with the help of an attendant, carrying one of my bags as I drag the others, is no way to travel.
When our team went to Europe, we had perfected our traveling gear into a tiny satchel.
The Scriptures tell us to lay aside every weight and sin that does so easily beset us and run the race that is before us. Professional runners shave their tennis shoes of excess rubber to lose that much weight.
The scriptures also tell us that the cares of life are weight to us. And they ask us to cast our cares on the Lord.
I encourage you to unpack your extra weight because Jesus said, Come on to me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. He continued by saying take my yoke upon you, for it is light.
So how about it? Are you ready to unpack and run the race like the gazelle fast and furious?

THANK GOD I'M FREE AT LAST
Among all the unique gifts God gave the human race, our ability to choose is the highest and most precious. When God said, let us make man in our image and provide them with dominion, rulership, creativity, and multiplication, he had reproduced someone like himself on Earth.
Free will and our ability to make choices in the direction of Our life have been reserved just for you and me because we are like God, created in his image, and our adversaries. The devil hates us because he hates God. The scriptures tell us that "the devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy."
I can't say this enough because many people don't know or believe it.
America, the one that was founded at Plymouth Rock and dedicated to God and his kingdom, is the greatest nation that the Earth is ever known.
At the core of its greatness is our number one right, the right to free speech. Free speech cannot happen without freedom of thought because that's where our words come from. Guess who doesn't like freedom of speech or freedom of thought? You got it, the devil himself.
Today we celebrate the Fourth of July, commemorating the signing of our declaration of freedom from England and its heavy, handed control over our speech and thought. England had ruled the world for over 100 years and was the biggest economy and the largest army the world had at that time. It was said that the Union Jack, the name of their national flag, never had the sunset on it because it was in every nation worldwide.
Our forefathers decided they had enough, and they put their foot down when they signed the Declaration of Independence. It took eight long bloody years before they signed the peace at the war's end. The army of England went home, and we began to form the nation that God had promised us.
FREEDOM AT LAST.
The only possible way that any of us can be free was paid for on the cross and at the resurrection through Jesus Christ. It's not the armies, the bullets, the rockets, and the airplanes that make us accessible. It is a fact that at the cross, Jesus won the battle over the enemy.
Everything we do in our walk to freedom is because of that day because it was purchased by his sacrificial blood and the power of his resurrection.
Celebrate this day of freedom that we enjoy in our nation but remember who gave it to you, and as we celebrate, we're celebrating our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

YOUR DAILY SUPER PILL: EPHESIANS TWO
Daily freshness and a word in season is the formula that works in the Christian life every day. Someone said we are not in a sprint we are in a race.. Much of what happens in our Christian development does not happen overnight. Because of that, we need to be able to endure tough times slow times and boring times. That is the same thing a farmer dose before the harvest season comes.
In our spiritual health and vitamin diet, there is the every day nutrition as we drink at the fountain of life through prayer meditation, and taking in the good word of God.
However, held back in reserve is what I call “super pills.” they're probably not the same ones you would use because each of us develop our own super pill in the journey we've been on. When I see a hill coming on my journey, I know I have to supercharge my spiritual engine to make it over the hill.
Then there's the times it seems like we're coasting or resting under the shade tree spiritually. Those are the times we get to enjoy new discoveries and meditation on past victories and resting in his goodness.
The book of Ephesians happens to be one of my super pills. I can break that pill bottle open in any spot I want and feel the super charge spirit of God flow into my spirit. Ephesians 2 is a special place I love to visit.
So today let's spend a few minutes going through some of my favorite reminders of who I am and what he has done for me and where I'm going.
When I finish my journey through some of these wonderful, vitamin enriched versus, I'm ready to hit the race again and win the prize.

THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST IS NOT THE ALAMO
For some who may not know our nation's history, almost two centuries ago, there was a small mission station in Texas called the Alamo. The struggle in the land at that time was about who would determine the border between Mexico and Texas.
A small band of patriots gathered at the Alamo to defend Texas against tens of thousands of Mexican soldiers coming to destroy them. The unfolding story of the Alamo is that these patriots were brave, determined, and unwavering in their defense against impossible odds.
No matter how often I've watched the John Wayne movie depicting this epic account of the struggle against uneven odds. It always turns out the same way.
The good guys lose, and the bad guys win.
The confusing part about the church in these times is that millions of Christians across the nation go to church every Sunday and hear a sermon about losing the war. There's a virus that invaded our theology over 200 years ago that has been preached in our pulpits and written in tens of thousands of books that tells us we lose in the end.
Yes, those same teachers tell us that we can heal the sick and perhaps even raise the dead, and we should win thousands of people to the Lord. They tell us that you can win some battles along the way, but don't ever think you will win the war.
This teaching ignores scriptures such as "the knowledge of the Lord will fill the whole earth like the waters cover the sea."
They also don't consider that Jesus won the battle on the cross and resurrection of who controls the world and all of God's creation, and the enemy will never take that back. However, through scriptural manipulation, they have invented a way to release the enemy from prison so that he can stomp the kingdom of God into the dust.
The message is, don't get your hopes up. Just work hard and wait for the end when Jesus will snatch us out of harm's way because, in reality, Jesus didn't win on the cross.
It's time that the church of Jesus Christ makes up its mind about who it believes. Is "Satan still alive and well on planet Earth?" Or did Jesus rise from the dead, as the Scriptures declare, as conquering king and priest of the entire creation?
According to Ephesians 2, he has raised us together, and we are seated with him in heavenly places ruling over the affairs of our generation.
With this thought in mind, it's time we go to work and fulfill our destiny that God redeemed us back to himself for.

ANTI-GOD'S VOICES WILL BE SILENCE
A few days ago, we were babysitting one of my granddaughters, about three years old. Somewhere in the morning, she began singing a little song she had heard on cartoons. It was a catchy tune, something that was familiar to me, so I sang it with her. The bad news is that I couldn't get that silly song out of my mind for the rest of the day. As the saying goes, it was driving me crazy.
Those voices that get into your head come from many different sources. And when they get there, it seems impossible to get them out.
As you know, my name is George. If your name is not George, you don't understand how it feels to have the kids at school sing the song to you, "Georgie Porgie pudding pie."
Little Georgie tried to kiss the girl in that silly children's song, then she cried. Then, when the boys came out to play Little George, he ran away.
No, you don't have to pray for me. I am long past that particular challenge, but it taught me that words can hurt and stay with you for a long time.
The anti-God voices can come through friends and family, the media, or your thinking. The only remedy I've ever found that works against the anti-God voices you may hear is the word of God.
The scriptures tell us if we hid the word in our hearts, we would not sin against God. The simple description of sin is missing God's mark or target for you in life.
When those voices come, do what Jesus did in his temptation in the wilderness.
Answer the enemy with God's word, and he will flee from you.

PRAYER-THE HOUR OF THE CHANGE THE WORLD
Unfortunately, many people hear the word work when we mention prayer in our churches. I suppose the reasoning is I thought this gospel was free; why should I have to work for it? Prayer could be at the top of the most misunderstood names in the Christian dictionary.
What exactly is prayer? The Scriptures tell us that all perfect things come from the Father above, where there is no changing because what He gives us is good. With that scripture in mind, I conclude that God invented prayer because it's good for us and our future generations.
First of all, let me tell you that prayer is not. Prayer is not a duty, and it is not an obligation, and it is not drudgery. God will not curse you if you don't pray, and the roof won't fall on your head. I bring this up because I've been told that more than once in my youth.
What is prayer? First, prayers are a privilege; something is given to us that has eternal value. But most of all, prayer is our entrance to the throne of God, our heavenly Father, where we can spend time with our best friend. Everything in that prayer chamber is vital to our lives and future generations.
Jesus asked his disciples could you not just wait with me or pray with me for one hour?. He did this during his garden travail and needed their backup. So add to why we pray, intercession, and back up our brothers and sisters and their journey.
How about one-hour, folks, OK?

THE KEY TO SPIRITUAL STRENGTH
Among the many things we learn very early on is that if we don't eat, we become weak. In this season of my life, my wife and I are enjoying our seven young grandchildren, ages 1 to 7. We also have the privilege of being Babysitters Central.
It's an interesting observation about young children; even though they ate at home just before coming to our house, they still seem hungry.
I've come to the conclusion that there must be something special about Mimi's pancakes that they have a hunger for. So they rub their little bellies and say Meet me. I'm hungry, and can I have some pancakes?
One of the first things I noticed about young converts is their hunger for the word of God and church in Christian Fellowship. In their former life, they eat all kinds of physical and spiritual food. The food they ate did not satisfy them, so they found satisfaction when they came to Christ.
The word of God, as we call the Bible, can satisfy the spirit that God is placed within each of us. However, we need to remember that the written word of God is a doorway into an active lifestyle of fellowship with God himself.
If all you do is read the Bible and memorize scriptures and be able to win all the contests at your local church scripture fest, you're missing the point.
The written word is a seed that is planted in our store that should grow into a relationship with the father in his personally.
That relationship is not reserved for some future date "when we all get to Heaven or how happy we will be."
That relationship is a daily experience that brings us his joy and strength.
