Quiet Time

WHAT IS IN YOUR HEART     -PART 1 Scripture: 1 John 2: 15 Topic: What is in your heart? In today's quiet time we will look at part 1 of the heart of man and its inclination. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2:15 Many Christians have fallen in love with the world rather than falling in love with Christ. It is important to allow your heart to be filled with Christ. How can we know what in in our hearts? By the things we say! Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Out of the abundance of the heart of the pastors you hear them speak and preach. What do you mostly hear about? We often hear about money, prosperity, success. These things have filled our hearts. The love of the world is in our hearts and the love for the things in the world is also in our hearts. Today, Jesus is standing at the door of the hearts of all Christians, knocking and asking to be let...

THE PROPHETIC HERITAGE OF A SERVANT OF GOD -PART 1 Scripture: Isaiah 54: 17 Topic: The prophetic heritage of a servant of God   …This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord... Isaiah 54:17 The servant of the Lord has a great heritage. He is destined for greatness in a supernatural way. Most Christians do not read the book of Isaiah very much. Perhaps they know a couple of scriptures from Isaiah, but most of us hardly understand much of it. However, it is the book most quoted from by Jesus as it is also the book that describes Jesus’ ministry in amazing detail. It is also the book that describes the heritage of a servant of God in much detail. It is very important for us to glean the revelation God has for us in there. I believe you will be mightily blessed by this wonderful prophet! There are twelve specific prophecies about God’s servants in the book of Isaiah. The prophet spoke clearly about the heritage of anyone called the servant of God. These prophecies ar...

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10: 25 “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10: 5 You must resist the devil in your life. When the Word of God says you must resist the devil. It means that you must resist thoughts and suggestions that come from the pit of Hell. “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things . .” Philippians 4: 8 Control your thoughts One of the best ways to control your thoughts is to listen to preaching. Christian music and videos are good tools to help in controlling your thoughts. Do not give place to the devil! You give place to the devil when you allow evil thoughts to settle in your mind....

  Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10: 25 “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10: 5 You may be a born-again Christian. You may keep your body under subjection. You may renew your mind on the Word of God regularly. But this does not close your mind to the attacks of the devil. Your mind is still open to all kinds of thoughts from the devil. When Satan attacked Jesus, he attacked His mind. The devil appealed to His mind. The devil will always appeal to your mind. The Bible teaches us that we must cast down imaginations. “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10: 5 Remember the truth: your mind is the battleground. Satan’s most powerful tool is suggestion. Jesus was tempted through the ave...

  Scripture: 1 Corinthians 9: 27 “I KEEP MY BODY UNDER [control] and bring it under subjection lest by any means when I preach to others I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9: 27 No matter who you are, you still have a body to keep under control. Have you ever seen a spirit smoking or drinking alcohol? Certainly not! It is the flesh that drinks and smokes! Have you ever seen a spirit committing fornication? Surely not! It is the flesh that does all these evil things! That is why the Bible teaches us to present our bodies as a living sacrifice. The works of the flesh are listed in Galatians Chapter five “ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, reveling, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not ...

  Scripture: 1 Corinthians 9: 27 “I KEEP MY BODY UNDER [control] and bring it under subjection lest by any means when I preach to others I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9: 27 When you are saved, you must know that your body is the same old body. When you are a new creation you do not change physically! If you were tall and skinny before salvation, you will still be tall and skinny after salvation. If you had long hair before you got born again, you’ll still have long hair after salvation. Does this mean that nothing happened to you? Not at all!! Your body is the same even though you are born again. You must understand this important fact. When people give their lives to Christ they believe that everything is going to be different just as the preacher said. However, when they get home they begin to feel the old feelings they felt before salvation. They experience lust and fear within their bodies. Because they are newly born again, the devil lies to them and te...

  Scripture: Romans 12: 2 “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND that ye may prove what is good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” Romans 12: 2   When you are born again, it is the spirit that is changed. God gives you a new heart and not a new mind. It is therefore the duty of every Christian to renew his mind. If you do not renew your mind, you will be a person with a new spirit and an old mind. They are many Christians who are genuine new creations but still have an unrenewed mind. If you belong to a good church that constantly preaches and teaches the Word of God, your mind will be renewed. There are many people who think that they know all there is to know in the Word of God. No one knows everything. Every Christian must decide to be a constant learner of the Word of God. He must never stop learning. You will always discover things that do not know. … it could be that because of your background, you are no...

  Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5: 17 “……If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation..” 2 Corinthians 5: 17 How to develop your spirit You are a spirit living in a body and you have a mind. You must develop your spirit as well. The question is, “How do you develop your spirit into maturity?” The first key to developing the human spirit is the Word “… desire the sincere milk of THE WORD, THAT YE MAY GROW thereby:” 1 Peter 2: 2 Allow the Word of God to enter your spirit through daily Quiet time, Bible study, and Bible reading. Every Christian must have a Quiet time every day. Moses went up to the mountain early in the morning to meet with the Lord. He took two tablets of stone to write down the revelations that God would give him. You need to have a Moses-type of Quiet time. Spend time early in the morning alone with the Lord “Hew thee two tables of stone…..and be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning…..and present thyself there……and no man shall come up wi...

  Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5: 17 “……If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation..” 2 Corinthians 5: 17 Stage 2: The childhood stage   “That we he henceforth NO MORE CHILDREN TOSSED TO AND FRO, and carried about …” Ephesians 4: 14 A child is unsteady and unstable. It is difficult t hold the attention of a child for more than a few minutes. The attention span of a child is very short. Because of this, they are unstable and unreliable. Any Christian who is carried about by every new man of God is a child. If you move around from church to church every few months you are an immature child. …there are many childlike Christians in the church today. Nothing satisfies them for more than a few minutes. Initially, they are excited by the good Word. After this, they feel that they need special prayers and anointing. After that, they are convinced that a holy bath is what will solve their problems. Nothing seems to satisfy and they are always sniffing for something new. The...

  Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5: 17 “……If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation..” 2 Corinthians 5: 17 When you are saved, something great has happened. There is no doubt about this. However, we must understand exactly what has happened. When somebody is born into this world, he starts life as a baby. It is important that he matures into an adult. “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, THAT YE MAY GROW thereby: 1 Peter 2: 2 There are times when people have the wrong impression about Christianity. The evangelist preaches and says, “Tonight is your night! Your life will never be the same again after today.” He goes on to add, “After tonight, every yoke shall be broken in your life.” He declares, “All you who are heavy laden must come to Jesus and He will give you rest.” This may give the impression that you instantaneously become a mature Christian. But that is not the case at all! Being born again is the beginning of a long process. Being born again i...
