Your Supernatural Capacity to Love

1 Jn 4:19.

You are supernaturally loved by God. Once you have a revelation of God's love for you, you will love Him. Because He loved you first He gave His only Son so that you can be redeemed. Once you identify with Christ You have the supernatural capacity to love Him and to love others.

So step out and walk in love, you have what it takes. Rom 5:5.



God Loves You

Mt 7:11.

God cares for you affectionately and watchfully. His love for you can't be comprehended naturally. If natural man can care for his children so much that he gives them gifts. How much more will God give us the good things that we ask for. He loves us so much that He only gives us what is good for us.

As a child of God, your job is to trust God and cast your cares. Trust God to provide for you supernaturally.

Choose Life not Death

Rom 8:6.

If you are God-inside minded and conscious of the life of God inside you then it will reflect is your words and actions. There will be no room for carnality.

When you are carnally minded then your results will tend to death, corruption and in the direction of the curse Deut 30:19. This is why many lives appear to be stagnant devoid of progress.

It is God's desire that you enjoy supernatural victories consistently but you must put off carnality.

Lasting Success

Allow God to lead you into lasting success. Pro 16:1-3.

Pro 16:1-3 The preparations of the heart belong to man, But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the spirits. Commit your works to the Lord and your thoughts will be established.

There is a limit to how much planning you can do. Everyone can identify with this. Recall when you tried planning for an event or for an upcoming situation. Did you try to make a list of all the different outcomes or situations? Were you able to identify every single scenario? If you have never done this, you can try this scenario now. You will find out that there is a limit to your reasoning ability. This is because you cannot possibly know everything.

Even when you bring together a large group of people for this exercise the group is still limited in its ability to know everything. In fact there is a critical number of people. Beyond this number, the effectiveness of the group begins to diminish rapidly. God is the only person who can be everywhere at the same time. He is the only person who knows everything. This is why He is the only person who can identify all the relevant scenarios for any given situation.

The NLT translation of Pro 16:1 states: We can make our own plans, but the Lord gives the right answer. If you are seeking the right answer or the right outcome you must learn to commit your plans, tasks and projects into the hands of God. You must allow God to lead you into the right solutions.

Today make a decision to turn over everything that you are responsible and accountable for into the hands of God and watch Him turn everything that you do into a success. ...another excerpt from my latest book.

What is Leadership?

A lot of people confuse leadership with titles. A title does not confer leadership on anyone. Many of the greatest leaders who have ever lived started leading others before they ever got a title. The greatest leader of all, Jesus did not have a formal title. He did not introduce Himself as Pastor, Reverend, Prophet, etc. You can be a leader at any level in any organization. The true measure of leadership is the ability to influence. 

Leadership is akin to the navigation system in many cars that surveys the land and considers various options before deciding on a route. The navigation system seeks to influence the driver it does not dominate the driver and force him in a particular direction. The best navigation systems also consider potential obstacles and sources of delay (e.g. traffic), and they navigate around these. They are constantly calculating the best route. Even when the driver strays off the pre-determined route they do not halt the car suddenly rather they re-calculate the route and proceed to get the driver back on track. This is one of the best illustrations of leadership. ...an excerpt from my latest book.

Life of God

Jn 10:10.

Jesus said that He came to impart the life of God in us; not just in small measure but in an a unlimited measure. He wants us to be full of the life of God to the point of overflow.

We get a measure of this life at new birth. We must continue to cultivate this life by exposing ourselves to right materials, staying in the presence of God, etc. This life must overflow to the point that it is affecting everything around you.

The Power of God

Eph 3:20.

God is able to do much more than we can think or imagine through His power working in us. That power is resident in us through the Holy Spirit. We must engage the Holy Spirit and in so doing the power of God is maximized.
