Good afternoon everyone. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. As we continue to move forward in the month of Fiscal Year End in June based on Zechariah 1:14-17 and Revelation 1:13-18 I want to share a story with you. At this time in my life I am taking public transportation. In the city of Chicago there are buses and trains that effectively move much of the people to and from. Although sometimes on the bus but more so on the trains you have people who are on their trying to make a dollar. You have one young man who ask for a dollar repeatedly in such a manner no one hardly helps him out. You have the sock man who hopes that you buy some socks to help keep him off your block ( from stealing). But the ones who I abhor ( can't stand) is the ones who attempt to scam people with a game called 3 card monte. During the Fiscal Year End we need to identify and eliminate the Slippery People in our lives.
In looking up the key word in this teaching I go to dictionary.com to see what is the meanings of slippery. Slippery means as follows; liable to cause slipping; not to be depended; and unstable or insecure. As we get
closer to the Fiscal Year End we have to be aware of those who are likely to cause us to slip. We need to rid ourselves of those not dependable. And we need to definitely get rid of the unstable and insecure in our lives. The next three chapters I will look as some Slippery People in the Word of God.
In beginning this teaching of the Slippery People I look in the Word of God and go to Judges 8:33-35. In chapters 6-7 of the book of Judges it tells how Gideon with the help of God brought the people out of a
state of being broken to freedom. But as soon as he left the scene the people began to be liable to slipping and started serving other God's such as Baal. Today Baal is in the form of people who tend to tell you that God is not real. The Fiscal Year End has to be the end of Slippery People in your life.
In looking at the next example in the Word of God for Slippery People I go the Zephaniah 3:1-4. In this passage once again the people of God have lost their way and become not to be depended on for anything.
We have Slippery People in our lives who bring drugs in our schools, lies to our youth, who play any and every game possible to make what God wants not valid, The Fiscal Year End should be the end of Slippery People in your lives.
In looking at the last example in the Word of God to see Slippery People I go to Galatians 5:1-9. In this passage the people of Galatia are being led down a path of law that continues to try to hold the people of
God back. These people are insecure and unstable as they continue to tell you that you could do better with them than with God and attempt to lead you down a path of destruction. The Fiscal Year End of Slippery People who must exit your life.
In closing we all have Slippery People in our lives. You know that person who said your ministry would not mesh with people who are religious. Or the ones who said your school that educates the youth would never make it. Oh how about your play or poetry that would never get off the ground. What, you will never have a successful social media site just talking about God. Your business will not survive just having Christian products. You will never be able to fix all the wrongs you have done in your family. That petition to change the laws of government will never work. The Slippery People want to see you fail and will do whatever they can along with the Son of Perdition to bring you down. They could be Fiscal Year End Losses if you allow them to. Trust God not Slippery People. I give God all the glory and honor for this teaching and ask that he bless all who reads this teaching. Please join me for a teaching on Thursday. Have a great week. And if you can please check out the teaching on Rhema Word 2.0 called the Old has Hold this week as well.
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. This past month I was riding with my friend Angela Francis. On this particular day she had to go get her hair done and her friend Roxanne' shop. I had done this numerous times in the past so when I was getting ready to leave I told Angela I was going to the forest preserve to sit and wait as she got her hair done. At the forest preserve I would be able to do two things while I was there. I would be able to think of ideas for my blog, my radio show and my daily postings on Facebook. When you attempt to write you sometimes get writer's block and need to get to a different atmosphere ( Hmmm Writer's Block may be a blog soon LOL ). The other reason I wanted to go to the forest preserve is because it was hot that day and I needed some shade. So as I approached the forest preserve I put on my left turn signal and waited for traffic coming southbound to clear. After
Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. Growing up we used to love to take pictures. Maybe not myself because I had a self confidence problem, but everywhere you went there was someone taking pictures. In grammar school we took pictures every week. In high school we took them every year. At church we took pictures. In the club we took pictures as a group to show we all went to a party. Most of the pictures we took were with a Polaroid camera which had great quality then. But if you wanted the best pictures you wanted the photographer to take your pictures. This was one of the coolest professions back then because all the ladies who wanted to be models or actresses had to go to the photographer to get that photo to take to the different agencies to show how they look. So in order to get the best quality the photographer had to go someplace where he could get the best results. It was his Dark Room. This is the na
Good morning and Happy Friday. The summer is now beginning and the weather is now reaching its highest temperatures. It has reached a high point of 90's so far in the Chicagoland area and it appears to be nothing in sight to relieve us of these conditions that are almost drought like. As the summer gets ready to start in earnest next week we anticipate the warmest temps of the year after a winter that saw a little snow but the hawk, ( that's what we call the wind in the CHI ) was in full effect. But the sun has been out daily and we need a little moisture in our lives. We expect things to get wet in order for us to not only cool off but to wash away some things and bring a freshness of new things in our lives. The hotness of the weather coincides with the hotness in our lives. We need things to cool off a little bit but need some things to come down so we can enjoy the things in our lives that is promised to us as Christians. We are faithful and trusting in his Word. So as we
