Scripture of the Day

"But I say, walk by the spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other to keep you from doing the things you want to do. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law." ~Galatians 5:16-18

"The Breath of God in a Time of Lack"

November 28, 2011, 8:30 am service ~ Bishop George Davis 
--> Malachi 3: 8- 
- "Barraca" = an "enablement" for victory 
--> Deuteronomy 8:18-    God will bless the work of your hands! 
      * Wealth is not just limited to monetary status; wealth can include having the ability to produce ideas 
--> Isaiah 58:3-  God is not reactionary; when we face problems, God has already placed an answer
- live life by Design not by Default 
--> Psalm 34:8- 
         - in the midst of  listening to God, He will direct you away from famine, etc .
--> Genesis 11:26- 
          *when you don't trust God, you tend to take your own route (out of fear) to solve your lack, which often times leads to more lack


**Question: How many times do we settle in a place where God doesn't tell us to go for fear of never eventually making it?? 
       **The safest place in the world is in the center of the will of God! b/c that's where your prosperity is! That's where your health is! That's where the angels of the Lord are protecting you! 
(God promises to bless you if you obey him! ) 
- some of those who are the most fearful in the world are the wealthy 
* If you learn to trust in God, He will take you from glory to glory b/c if you learn to trust God in the good times, you'll be able to stand when famine comes.. 


--> Genesis 26:1-6; 12
 When God blesses you in the middle of famine, it's not just for you but also for those around you to see how great God is!
