In God we trust is not merely a statement "It's a must!"

I've been viewing some of the events taking place over the last few
weeks and it saddens my heart.

One story in particular is that of a Pastor's wife who died due to suspected
swine flu complications.

We may ask how can this happen to God's people?
God does not put things on us, however, our bodies are subject to
the effects of this world.

I know you know the statement "In God we trust" on our currency.
My question is are we as christians truly trusting God?
Trusting His word that teaches us to cover ourselves?
Keeping our armour on? Speaking the word over our lives?
Covering ourselves with the blood?

We have a lot of preachy folks. Those that are quick to give a sermon
but if you were to be in the privacy of their homes, no word is going
forth,there is no devotion time and definitely a lack of prayer coverage.
OH! Should I even draw attention to fasting? (smile)

So..... in the midst of all of our daily tasks and plans we must make
sure that we trust God's instructions for our life. Seek His wisdom in
every area and listen.

If you miss it , get back up and receive God's grace, repent and move
foward.

My friend now is the time to stay under the shadow of The Almighty.
El Elyon "The most high God!" (For life or death)
As a christian to die is gain , however, we don't have to go before it's
our time and when it is we will do as this wife -
Close to death and attached to tubes and wires, she could only communicate
with hand gestures, but reportedly told her husband, "Everything is going to
be O.K. I know where I'm going." [1]

In God we trust is not merely a statement "It's a must!"

Have you hugged Him lately?

One of my building blocks for empowerment includes commitment
to your spiritual authority which in my case and yours is
Father God and next for wives is their husband.

I thought this post would support the attitude we should
embrace where it concerns our Father God.

Did you remember to hug Father God today? If He cries
when we cry and laughs when we laugh then He has the
ability to be sad when we're sad. Let's lift the heart of God
with fellowship, worship and praise. It makes sense.....when
we have joy....He has joy! Although the capacity of His joy is
not decreased or increased by our emotions, He still has the ability
to receive from our expressions of joy (praise)!

Go ahead give Him a praise hug, a worship hug, a declaration of
victory hug!

Hallowed be thy name Jehovah Jireh - my provider!
Jehovah Shalom - The Lord my peace!
Jehovah-Rapha - The Lord my healer!

Yes! Yes! Listen for His applause, feel your spirit soar as you enter
into His presence. He's listening he's inhabiting your praises!

God in you = Empowerment!
