Don't fall into the trap of self elevation that so many before us have. It's a very easy trap to stumble into, an unholy hubris that is formed in our minds and by the opinions of others that leads us astray. The end is always destructive.

Remember King David's error being tempted by the devil to count his subjects and measure his success instead of humbly relying on God despite the results. Learn from his error and the folly of so many others and resist the lure to become the "next big thing" and a new type of saviour. The devil always wants to find some poor fool to exalt and lift up so when the timing is perfect - he can pull them down and use it to create a shockwave of destruction.

The safest place to be is to always remember we are simply sinners saved by Grace alone. Little children who need our Father for everything.

We already have the best thing that being salvation and we already have a Saviour who is more than enough.

His Name is JESUS.

Romans 12:3 - For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. 

You're not alone... I AM with you.

The reason others don't walk this path with you is because you are being personally trained One-on-One. My best soldiers are always trained this way. The fastest way to learn is to be removed from all that is familiar and to rely solely on My Voice. 

The reason the road you tread is hard, rocky and unpaved is because very few walk this road. Many choose the easy road, the smooth road, the road with the least surprises - the common road. 

You chose wisely when you listened to My Voice and began down this path despite how difficult it looked. But you have grown My child, I have led you and I have taught you. I have trained you and refined you through hardship and trials for My purpose. 

Your reward is something this world cannot ever offer you. Something it can never purchase or steal. Something far beyond price. Something that can only be bestowed from above. 

Keep following My Voice. Do not step to the left or the right - only maintain the course I set for you and you will receive what I promised. 

Wisdom, Insight and Eternal Life.  

Everything that Jesus did and said while He walked this earth as the Saviour of the World was truly and utterly remarkable but the single thing He said that stands out the most for me in regards to our relations with each other is when He said "Do to others as you would have them do to you..."

Throughout humanities existence many people have used broken fragments of the Bible taken way out of context to justify just about anything... ambition, greed, theft, betrayal even taking another's life from them - but this single phrase changes all that. It's the bomb defusal specialist sent in to disable the nuke that's going to blow in the middle of a packed city and start world war three. It's the lone soldier that says "I'll surrender my life if it means it will end the war..."

Can you imagine if every person that called themselves a follower of Jesus applied just this one simple truth? Can you imagine..?

I hope and pray this single notion captures our hearts and starts a revolution. God loves you so show love to each other.

"Treat others the same way you want them to treat you" - Luke 6:31

There's a lot of pressure in this world to be a lot of things... A lot of people want you to be their savior, to fix all their problems and to ease their pain. There's also people that want you to be the scape-goat for all the wrongs they've experienced and to take the blame for their hurt. There's people that want you to be some sort of exalted leader, something to follow, something that gives them hope. There's even some people that want you to be perfect - flawless and without fault being the perfect representation of their cause. Can I share some wisdom with you today? You don't need to be those things. As a matter of fact, you don't need to be any of the things people want you to be. When God made you - He made you with a purpose - His purpose. When He made you - He made no mistakes. What God says about you and His plans for you are far, far more important than the opinions of others. Even if those opinions come from people with great power or from hundreds, thousands or even millions of fans - what God says still sits much, much higher.


One of the most important names of God is that He's called "The Great I AM". Why is this so important? Because He is what we don't need to be and can never be. You don't need to be famous... Because He says "I AM". You don't need to be the scape-goat... Because He says "I AM". You don't need to be someones saviour... Because He says "I AM". You don't need to be Mr or Mrs Fix-it... Because He says "I AM". You don't need to be an amazing role model... Because He says "I AM". You don't need to be perfect... Because He says "I AM". God gives you a message in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans that I have for you, plans for good and not for evil, plans for a hopeful future". Jesus is already all those things listed above so all that leaves you to be is... You. Just be you. Who are you...and what is your purpose here? I can't tell you that because only God knows. But that's the best part, finding that out is only found through relationship with Him - not through someone else - and that's what He's always wanted with you. Relationship. Simple relationship of a loving Father to a valued, planned and extraordinary child. God loves you. 

Consider the famous discourse from the disciples to the crippled man in Acts 3:6 "Silver and Gold have I none but such as I have I give to you... In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth... Rise up and walk!"

The disciples had not a cent to their name yet the power of God flowed and healed a lame man making him walk, run and leap for joy because of the healing that came through the power of Jesus Name.

Why doesn't that happen in our churches much today? Is it because unlike the disciples we have money in excess yet very little of the simple faith and obedience the disciples had to move forward in the Name of Jesus?

Remember... The love of money is the root of all evil. You cannot love God and selfish gain.

Maybe if there wasn't so much money making the rich even richer it would make us draw closer to the true heart of God...

When is the last time you went down to the ocean - not to skate, not to eat an ice cream, not to hang out with your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife or kids. Just you... When's the last time you walked to the end of the jetty and just stood there gazing over the massively wide expanse that is the ocean and just thanked God for the simple gift of life itself. No requests, no complaints... just thank you. If its been a while for you can I encourage you to take a trip to that place. Trust me when I say it'll make a massive difference. Being thankful changes everything. Have an awesome day guys. God loves you. 

The message is simple. God is above all things. This world is broken and we needed help. So God sent down Love to save us. His Name is JESUS. 

There is no greater love than for someone to die in your place so that you can live. That's a soldiers love. That's a Kings Love. A love that spits in the face of Death then comes back with Death itself chained up like a dog completely submitted telling it when to sit, stay and be quiet. 

[ John 15:13 - Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.]

God chooses to use the weak things of this world to showcase His strength and the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. So if needing Jesus help every single day makes me weak - then I'll gladly be called weak. And if believeing in the power of the cross makes me a fool - then fool it is. Unashamed †

Hey, God loves you. Far more than words. He loves you so much He doesn't want you to be stuck there in what happened in the past. Yeah that stuff happened, there's no point denying it and you probably feel like you're a prisoner because of it. Maybe it's something you did to someone... Maybe it's something you did with someone... And now you're chained up in past hurt, shame, guilt, anger and regret. God never wanted you to live like this... He wants you to be free. Free to move forward. Free to think clearly. Free to choose. Free to love. I was like you for a long time. Locked up in past hurt that tormented me every single day. I thank God that I finally found the key to freedom that unlocked my prison. It's JESUS. Nothing else even came close by comparison. If that's you, just call out to God and ask for His help and He will hear you. Next He'll guide you on what to do. Just listen and obey and He'll start setting things right again. That's what He does... Creates and Restores. You're not a lost cause. Everyone's story can be rewritten if - only you let Him... God loves you.

[ Philippians 3:13 - Dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead ]
