Heavenly Service\n

Your selfless, faithful actions will result in authority over obstacles of evil. Your focus will be adjusted to God\u2019s love and you will not just be a survivor, but an overcomer!\n

Goodness is a catalyst for incredible miracles, transformations and moves of God. Why? Because it always has selflessness attached to it. And what does selflessness have attached to it? The love of God, which brings grace to overcome to the party!\n

Listen to what the Bible says about the God-kind of love:\n

Love\u2026 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all thing. Love never fails.\u00a0\u2013 1 Corinthians 13:7-8\n

Wow! God\u2019s goodness is seen in believing, hoping, and enduring, but overcoming \u2013 that\u2019s just plain powerful! The supernatural power to overcome obstacles comes from serving others selflessly, which is the opposite of our nature. We are naturally selfish, so serving others is an act of our will. See, the goodness of God that overcomes evil starts off as a willingness to serve, but ends up as a transformational juggernaut, aka: Heaven\u2019s momentum.\n

Heaven\u2019s momentum comes from faithfully serving without losing focus or falling out.\n

Heaven\u2019s authority is also part of faithful service.\n

But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest and\u00a0the one who rules like the one who serves. \u2013 Luke 22:26\n

In the kingdom, authority is reserved for servants. When you selflessly serve others, God and His goodness show up and change everything, including you!","hover":"\nWhich Wolf Do You Feed?\n

Jesus-driven thinking helps and heals. This is what the Bible has to say on the subject: For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. \u2013 Romans 8:6\n

The Cherokee nation knew it, too. Check out this spot-on tribal tale:\n

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life. He told the boy, \u201cA terrible fight is going on inside me. It is a fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and self-doubt.\"\n

The old man continued: \u201cThe other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.\u201d He then told the boy, \u201cThis same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too.\u201d\n

The grandson thought about it for a minute, then asked his grandfather, \u201cWhich wolf will win?\u201d The wise old chief replied, \u201cThe one you feed.\u201d\n

What wolf have you been feeding? Just know the wolf of evil thoughts will eventually devour you, and likely others as well. Thoughts become actions, and there is always collateral damage.\n

That\u2019s not you! You can control your thought life and ensure the evil wolf starves to death."}},"slug":"et_pb_blurb"}">Heavenly Service

Love… bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all thing. Love never fails. – 1 Corinthians 13:7-8

Wow! God’s goodness is seen in believing, hoping, and enduring, but overcoming – that’s just plain powerful! The supernatural power to overcome obstacles comes from serving others selflessly, which is the opposite of our nature. We are naturally selfish, so serving others is an act of our will. See, the goodness of God that overcomes evil starts off as a willingness to serve, but ends up as a transformational juggernaut, aka: Heaven’s momentum.

Grounded in FaithDeclare!

I am a child of God who has a new life and a transformed mind. I joyfully love and serve others because I am focused on the work of Heaven here on Earth.
