RENEW | Looking Forward. Holding the Rope

All of your breakthroughs and blessing are in front or you. This is no time to stand still or look backwards. Discover and continue in your “race” and finish every endeavor strong!"No, 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,  I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us." ~ Philippians 3:13-14NOTE: "Hope The Rope" explained at 41:35

RENEW | Setting Your Mind

Colossians 3:1-3, If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

RENEW | The Practical Power of Dream

A dream is a motivating, focusing power. A dream is like hope, in that, we are inspired and energized. We get excited about talking about our dreams, because God designed us to think, dream and envision the future, which begins with a living better with Christ TODAY!
Ephesians 3:20, Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think [dream], according to the power that works in us.

RENEW | Best Version of You

Ephesians 4:23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

Renew: Recognition, Willingness, Renewal

1 Sam. 11:14 Then Samuel said to the people, “Come, let us all go to Gilgal to RENEW the kingdom.”

Five Benefits of Giving Praise | by Patricia Hudson

Psalm 100:4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

Manifold Grace | Pt. 2, Equipped & Empowered

1 Cor. 15:9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.The Grace of God is an empowering force. Grace is not primarily for personal comfort. Grace is not an amenity. Grace is given to equip you to serve God’s purposes in your generation. 

Manifold Grace | Pt. 1 The Product of Grace

1 Peter 4:10 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11 If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 
Grace is your greatest resource! More than money, friends, and professional connections.
When you feel limited or "stuck" remember that God's grace is "manifold" or diverse. If you stay in faith and keep your focus on Him, you will surely see provision, solutions, and answers.
You are responsible to use the "manifold" (many-sided) grace God has entrusted to you as "stewards" of His grace on your life. 1 Pet. 4:10

True Worship | Two Dimensions: Spirit & Truth

John 4:23 "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24] God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

Empowered to Empower Others

Acts 10:38, 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
