Progress Report 3
After months of prayer and meditating on God's word, I have completed my second book. I am proud to annouce that it is now available as an e-book on Barnes and Noble and Amazon. The name of the book is entitled: Beyond the Veil- A Meditation in Psalms. Through God's divine inspiration, I believe this book will give you key lessons to grow in your walk with God and obtain the road map you need to follow the path that God designed just for you. The print version will be available soon so details will follow. Just wanted to give a short update to let you know the progress that has been made.

The Subtle Adversary
This morning I read the 3rd chapter of Genesis which depicts the fall of man. The very first verse really struck home with me when the writer calls the serpent subtle. From the beginning of time, the devil has wreaked havoc on so many lives. The writer however chooses to use the word subtle to describe him! If you continue reading that chapter, you will find that the adversary didn't make Eve eat of the forbidden fruit. He used subtle tactics to coerce her into sin. He only suggested that she eat of the fruit. There was not a moment where the devil had her in bonds where she had no choice. She could have easily walked away, but she decided to stay and listen to his speech.
When Adam and Eve had everything they could have ever wanted or needed, why do you think they threw it all away with the enticement of a piece of fruit? They weren't hungry or in the midst of a famine. There were other trees that had appetizing fruit. How could they let the enemy entice them into giving up everything that God had given them? Eve made the mistake of letting the devil plead his case. When she let him talk to her, she was blinded by his watered down offer of being just like God.
What are you letting the devil tell you today? Don't think the enemy is going to make you do anything. He doesn't have that type of power over you. He will only come with a subtle invitation. Don't let him tell you that God can't bring you out of what you are dealing with. Every time you entertain his suggestions, he strips away more and more of your faith. Stop listening to his lies. You take power over the enemy when you recognize his tactics. There is nothing the devil can do to you unless you let him. Stop letting the devil fool you into having a skewed mentality. The word of God says to obtain the mind of Christ. How do we do that? Recognize that the devil is only as strong as you think he is. Concentrate on what God is trying to tell you instead of the false suggestions of the adversary. Take back your authority over the enemy!

Be an Overcomer in 2011!
Well its another year! 2010 is gone and no matter how good or bad, there is no going back. We can't rewrite history. We can however, face this new year with a spirit of expectancy. I believe that God wants to do something extraordinary this year if we commit to trusting and believing in him. If we look at this year with a fresh perspective, there is no limit to what we can accomplish.
As a new year approaches, alot of us make resolutions. Many of us vow to shed a few pounds before summer or we commit to getting our finances in order. While those resolutions are good, what have you vowed to do about your relationship with God this year? In the middle of the night, I awoke and the word Overcomer was so strong in my mind. I began to ponder on that word, and I realized that being an overcomer is the key to success in this new year.
When you overcome something, you take control of it. You dominant it and rise above the person, place or situation. Sometimes we get complacent with the hand that life has dealt us. We don't have to settle for where we are right now. There is a way out. Let's say you run into a problem with finances in this new year. If you understand your God given authority, you can begin to look at your situation in the spiritual realm. God is the creator of all things. He has the power to change your existence. If you begin to study the word of God as it relates to finances, it will be easier to align your actions with what you believe. Then no matter how much money you have in the bank, you will not operate in worry. Even though your circumstance has not changed right now, you can be sure that you can overcome the attacks of the enemy. You will know that God is a provider and He will not withhold any good thing from you. Psalm 84:11
Always keep the world Overcomer present in your mind. No matter what this year brings, you can face it. If you delve into the word of God and build that relationship with him, you can overcome anything. When you make it through the storms of life, don't forget to share the experience with others. The word says that we overcome by the power of our testimony. When we tell others of how God brought us through adversity, we grow stronger, our light shines brighter and we become more effective witnesses. I will be an Overcomer in 2011. Who will join me?
