It's Inventory Time! In retail, every year or so inventory is taken. Inventory allows us to see three things, what we have, what we should have and what we have lost. Not only can we see our losses, but we will sometimes find that unprofitable things have been deposited that wasn't apart of our original inventory. In retail, every now and then you may notice something such as an old and dirty pair of shoes sitting on a shelf. Why are they there? They are there because the t...heif has stolen something valuable and has replaced it with something that can be utilized in the same way but serves a complete different purpose. So men and women of GOD, what happens when we take spiritual inventory? We may find that the enemy has stolen our joy and replaced it with depression, he has stolen our love and replaced it with resentment and hate, he has stolen our Faith and replaced it with fear and doubt. What must we do! The amazing thing about taking inventory is that it allows us to see our current condition and from that day forward, we are able to protect our remaining assets and build so that we may prosper. 1 Peter 5:8-9 says "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:" His job is to kill, STEAL, and destroy! So let's begin to take spiritual inventory. In Revelation 3 verse 2 God tells us to be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: It's time to reclaim our lives and rebuild what the enemy has cunningly snatched. Let's protect our assets starting today!

How many times have we suffered the disappointments in life caused by betrayal and hurt and because we feel defeated we began to question GOD? We keep praying for God to take it away but God is saying LET IT GO! The truth is, we should be questioning ourselves because God's word is TRUE. So how do we let it go? This not only requires a connection with God but there are some actions required on our behalf. God says "PUT ON" your weapons for warfare. God says "PRAY" without cea...sing. God says "SEEK" and you shall find. God says "KNOCK" and the door will be opened. God says "HUMBLE" yourselves and "TURN" from your wicked ways, THEN WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN AND WILL HEAL YOUR LAND! What we must be certain of as Children of God is that we have enough power within us to destroy every attack on our hearts, minds and souls. The enemy should not have as much power as he has claimed over God's people. When the enemy says that you are defeated, remember he is the Father of lies. Who the Son sets free is FREE indeed! We are soldiers in the undefeatable army of the Lord and we must identity ourselves as nothing less. See more

It was good seeing you all tonight for our 7pm bible study. For those who couldn't make it, tonight's message was from Galations 5-22-23. It reads: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." Remember, as children of God, we are known by the fruit we bear. What will people say after an encounter with us? Are we producing the 9 characteristics that make up the fruit of the Holy Spirit? Let's continue to pray for strength as we strive to have a heart like Christ. We look forward to seeing you Sunday for our 3pm service at Faith and Prayer. God Bless!
