  • “Extremely Satisfied”

    Good Morning Beloved, Happy Friday to you all.

    In this morning’s Bible Verse, we find a little boy with a sack lunch, and in his bag, he had five loaves of bread and two fish. Nothing to get excited about. Not until Jesus took his lunch multiplied it and fed a hungry crowd of over a thousand people. Imagine this child’s mother who made his lunch. She was a stay at home mom raising a child without a big-name title or acclamation. But titles don’t bring satisfaction. Keeping up with the Joneses (your neighbors) doesn’t bring joy. Trying to impress your friends, family, co-workers, the church family will make your life depressing. You must understand your position and your assignment and be comfortable with who God created you to be. You will find out that not trying to be like the Joneses will bring real pleasure.

    Beloved as we bring to an end another week and organize ourselves for the weekend, I encourage you not to diminish the gift God has given you. Be reliable and protect the role that God has given you. Be happy not to have to be number one, or have all eyes on you, to have a big-name title, keep up with The Joneses or others.

    Beloved, the splendor of our God is that He has given every one of us a special gift and purpose. Amen? Aaamen. ✝️❤️

    Let Us Pray
    Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the custom-made gifts You’ve distributed to me. Thank You for matching me with what You want me to do, and I have the proper tools and resources that I need to accomplish Your plan for my life. I declare that I am very content with my position and assignment. In Jesus’ Name, I pray,  
    Amen and Aaamen. ✝️❤️

    Have a Satisfying Friday and a Fantastic Weekend, Everyone. ✝️❤️😊

  • “Hold Onto Your Position”

    1 17 2020 Bishop Houston's Weekend Words Ecclesiastes 3 1

    Beloved, God has ordained certain points and sequences that will rotate in our lives. Sometimes, when our aspirations aren’t coming to fruition on our schedule, we’ll be enticed to get exasperated. Let me tell you right here, We have to be very cautious not to permit our stubborn mentality to keep us from going forward.
     
    In God’s kingdom, every season isn’t harvesting time. There are cultivating seasons, seeding seasons and irrigating seasons. Of course, we would love for every point of our life to be a time of growth, but without the other seasons, we wouldn’t be ready to receive the new position. It’s during the cultivating seasons that God brings issues to light that we need to do business with. He’s getting us ready for marketing (promotion). If you’re not developing as quickly as you would like, the key is “DON’T LOSE ANY GROUND!!! In other words, don’t go backward. Keep your position by maintaining a mindset that demonstrates your faith and expectancy, even when things get tough. Keep investing by speaking the Word daily. Keep pressing through because soon you’ll come into your due season!!! Amen? Aaamen. ✝️❤️😊
     
    Let’s Pray Out:
    Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your constancy in all seasons of my life. I trust that my time is coming, and I choose to continue to be faithful. I present my methods to You today and have faith that You have the greatest plan for my life. In Jesus’ Mighty Name, I pray, Amen and Amen. ✝️❤️
     
    I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Have a pleasant Friday and a great weekend everyone. ✝️❤️😊

    “Get in Position to Hear”

    CHOF Ministry’s Scripture for Today:
    John 10:27, (AMP)
    The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them, and they follow Me.

    Praise the Lord Beloved!!! 😀

    You know Beloved, there are so many believers that are unsure, insecure and even shy about their ability to hear God or know His voice. They’re always afraid that they won’t be able to tell when the Spirit of God is talking to them.

    But, what they don’t realize is this: Hearing the voice of the Spirit is a privilege that the Bible says belongs to every believer. Romans 8:14 says:
    “For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.”

    All we have to do to exercise that privilege is to receive it by faith and put ourselves in a position to hear. So, the next time the devil tries to tell you that you can’t hear God’s voice, remember that.
    John 16:13 says: Jesus said His sheep will know His voice and a stranger’s voice they will not follow.

    Beloved, that’s a promise of God to you today. You see, the Spirit of God will never guide you in opposition to the written Word of God. So, if you’re not familiar with what the Word says, you’ll find it more difficult to discern His leading.
    Get familiar with God’s voice by meditating and studying the Word of God. Follow God’s instruction to Joshua and meditate on it day and night. Act on what you find in the Word, not just when it’s easy and everything is going right, but every time. Be obedient even in the slightest things.

    Beloved, that constant obedience to the written Word will bring you into maturity and tune your inward ear to the voice of the Spirit. You’ll soon be able to recognize it as easily as you recognize the voice of your Best friend.

    So, instead of wondering about it, start expecting to hear from Him. Start sharpening your spiritual ears by spending time in the Word.

    To God Be the Glory!!!

  • Are You in Position?

    Today’s Scripture Reading:

    Exodus 34:10

    Praise the Lord Beloved.

    Peace to all of you who are in Christ.

    Beloved, if you’re going to reach your maximum potential in the natural, you’ll need to have spiritual doors open for you that you can’t open on your own. You’re going to need upgrades, favorable opportunities, Godly connections and God’s service which is greater than what you’ve seen in the past.

    You know in the book of Exodus God said: “I will perform great wonders that I have not done anywhere before in all the world. People will see what great things I can do because of the awesome things I’m about to do for you.” Now just think about that for a moment and let it form a solid foundation in your spirit.

    Beloved, God is saying, “I’m going to do something awesome in your life.” The word AWESOME means “Breathtaking, Tremendous, Extraordinary, Amazing.” But you know I find that the key is actually found in the very next verse (V.11). It says, “Obey what I have commanded.”

    Beloved, God’s ready to fulfill your life with His promises, and we have to do our part to allow His promises to emerge. When we do things God’s way, we get God’s results. When we follow His Word, He promises to bless us with life, health, peace, and joy.

    Beloved, are you in a position to receive His promises?

    Have a blessed Wednesday Everyone.
