Walking Out Our Two God-Given Purpose Commandments

There is never an age or a stage of our life that we are not to identify our God-given purpose and to fulfill it to the best of our ability. How? Always default to the two greatest commandments, and then ask God what it is we should be doing to fulfill both of these commandments in the proper order at that specific time.

“‘Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?’ And he said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.’”

~~~Matthew 22:36-40 (ESV)~~~

Stop Making Everything All About You!

“Self-centeredness is the foundation to all bitterness and hurt and pain. It’s what goes on in marriages when you’re self-centered, you have a problem almost with everything because you have yourself in the center. You have to remove yourself from the center in the midst of an attack and it won’t bother you, because you are not in the center of it” Creflo Dollar.

“But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”

~~~James 3:14-16 (KJV)~~~

Trusting in the Lord, Humility vs Pride

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart,…Trust in the Lord with all your heart, say this out loud with me, humility, that’s what that is. Lean not to your own understanding. Well what if you’re leaning on your understanding, pride. You think you can do it, without the help,…” Keith Moore.

“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

Faith, the Real Stuff

“Now sometimes in churches, unfortunately there is a lack of faith. Faith only comes one way, by hearing, and hearing what? the Word of God. So faith doesn’t come by emotion, faith doesn’t come sometimes when people are in churches and so forth, there’s a lot of emotion, a lot of sensation, faith doesn’t come by talking about politics and so forth, faith doesn’t even come by people trying to expound theology. You’ll find that even if you, I want to qualify that, I’m just saying that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Once you get the word of God, for you to get faith, you’re going to have to move from information to revelation. And once you move to revelation, faith cometh on that level. And so you’ll find when revelation decreases so does faith, and so God want us to go from faith to faith to faith to faith. Say amen to that” Dr. Bill Winston .

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

The Boomerang Effect of Love Overflowing

“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

~~~Luke 6:37-38 (ESV)~~~

“Don’t pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults—unless, of course, you want the same treatment. Don’t condemn those who are down; that hardness can boomerang. Be easy on people; you’ll find life a lot easier. Give away your life; you’ll find life given back, but not merely given back—given back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity.”

What Do You Treasure Most?

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”

By Their Fruits You’ll Know

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”

Hearing From God, Quality & Quantity Time

“You’ve got to start spending time in the presence of God listening to your heart and listening to God speak to you. God does not work like a microwave, amen. You can’t microwave your miracle. You need to sit in the presence of God” Andrew Wommack.

“My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings. Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh. Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.”

Do Others See Jesus In You?

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.”

He Saw & He Believed! Do You?

“The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre. So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre. And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in. Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed. For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.”
