TAKING A MOMENT

AUGUST 11, 2013 – DON’T BE SPIT – Have you ever tasted something and you had to spit it out of your mouth? That is not a good moment but it happens. Do you realize that God actually talks about spit in His Word? Revelation 3:15-16 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I would that you were cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. (NAS) The Lord is into extremes! One definition for extreme: ‘going to great or exaggerated lengths – radical.’ Some people are afraid to go to the extreme for God. They are fearful of what others might say about them. I say, “Be Radical!” I have a baseball cap that says, ‘Crazy For Christ’. Some may think, “That’s not appropriate.” But I say, “I will never be God’s spit.” I love going all out for the Lord, and being as hot as fire in the Hands of Almighty God! He is looking for fireballs! He is looking for those who will be radical and for those who will do the radical for the glory of His Kingdom! Will you be a hot fireball or would you rather be God’s spit?

AUGUST 10, 2013 – FILL UP THE BOWL – Think about how many items you place in a bowl. You probably place things in a bowl on a daily basis. Whether its cereal, fruit, ice cream, oatmeal, beans, rice…you get the picture. Did you realize that something very important of yours is being placed in a bowl for all of eternity? I just love things like this – God’s word excites me like no other!!! Okay, are you ready for this? Your very own prayers are being placed in a bowl. Check this out: Revelation 5:8 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. (NKJ) You are a saint. Your prayers are as incense unto the Lord and they are placed in a golden bowl. The next time you get a bowl out of the cabinet, think about that. Think about your prayers. Your prayers have power in the name of Jesus. Your prayers are important to the Lord. They are so important to Him that He has places them in a golden bowl! Fill up the bowl!!!

And my post from yesterday….it’s ‘Quite’ not quit…sorry, I was too tired and didn’t catch that typo! 🙂
