Goodness - The Foundation Of God Genesis‬ ‭1:3-4‬ ‭ - “Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. From the beginning of time, God’s voice has always carried “goodness” and love. It is the very thing that divides and conquers darkness. Overcome evil with good today. It’s the way, the truth, and the life of God. ‭‭

THE VOICE OF A HELPING HAND John‬ ‭8:10-11‬ - “When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.”” ‭‭ ‭‭God’s voice does not condemn humanity. It lends a helping hand to pull us out of the ditch of condemnation.

Psalms‬ ‭91:2‬ ‭- “I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” ‭‭

Let love control the way you think.

The Voice The voice of God will show us Jesus’ way, show us truth that’s set us free, and awakens the true life that has been hidden within. Just listen for a moment, it’s a small insignificant voice within that we could ignore, but once we catch it, it opens huge doors of love within our hearts.

When we know others transgressions more than the person themselves? We have lost the relationship and awareness of God.

Come Sunday to hear Brad McClendon and welcome home his mother, Pat McClendon. Woo-hoo!!!

Great morning everyone! See you at church this morning! I believe God is awakening a community Love that has been hidden within us all for this time. It's time to be "family"!

Great morning at church. I love y’all a ton!

This Sunday Brad McClendon is in the house!

One of the natures of love that God has given humanity, is the power to forgive.

God doesn’t change His mind about us if we make mistakes or fall on our face. He will be there to pick us up, dust us off, and say, “Ok, put away the past, and let’s move on to your high calling that Jesus prepared for you. I’m with you.” We can be the same way toward others.

JUDAS - OUR UNDERSTANDING Proverbs‬ ‭3:5‬ ‭- “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;” Like Judas, our familiar understanding “feels” like it’s doing the right thing for the Lord, but in true spiritual reality, it betrays the Lord’s will or process that has been implemented in our lives. Lean on His heart that’s nothing like ours, and walk the path of everlasting life with the Spirit. ‭‭

People have ask me, "Brad, how do you know some of these things?" First of all, it is the Spirit that helps me answer questions and enigmas. Second, I have made a lot of "mistakes" that have helped me learn to discern what is the authentic path of life and what is false path of life. And I am still learning........:)

TEMPTATION OF THE WEARY Matt 4:1-3 - Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread." When Jesus was basically not doing well, the tempter came to present things that are "of" God, but not “from” God. Part of the temptation was to get Jesus' mind off the Father's deep work that He was doing within Himself. This happens to many. When we are not doing well everything seems and looks like it is “of” God, but it is not coming “from” God. The tempter will not present evil things to those not doing well, he will present good things that even God has prophesied to us. When we begin to entertain it, it takes our minds off God and on the "so call" good things. When this happens we jump ship of the deep work that God is trying to perform us, and apprehend our purpose in our timing instead of God's timing. Don't take the bait! Let God finish His deep work in you, and afterward, you will walk in authority and power anywhere God leads.

‭‭Hope For Nothing Luke‬ ‭6:35 - But love your enemies,lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.” ‬ We can’t experience the true love of God within ourselves when we expect change with people we care about. If so, we will stay frustrated and resentful. Don’t expect to get the same return with what you give out in the area of love. Just “be” Love.

Doors To Favor Prov 3:3-4 - 3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, 4 And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man. This is something Jesus grew in daily when He walked the earth. The favor of God and men increased as He extended mercy and truth upon mankind. Mercy and truth was like a horses' bridle that He chose to let control His very nature and walk in life. He was tempted daily to judge or reject people, yet in the place He was tempted to destroy, He extended mercy and truth in love, to heal or save. Favor always follows mercy and truth. Let them control your life as it did with the Son of God.
