Look At God

Have you ever considered what it would be like to have to work on a project every day for a hundred years? That is probably to difficult for any of us to imagine, but when this happened, the life expectancy for humans was quite a bit longer than it is now. Tune in to Nik Ingram’s episode, and hear the remarkable story of faith and faith building.

Many times we feel like taking control and serving God according to our own agenda. This really overcomplicates things. God has laid out a plan for us. His commandments are clear. In return, he asked that we trust him and that we are obedient to him. Join Nik Ingram in this conversation about how we make life difficult for ourselves as Christians when we feel the need to overthink things instead of trusting and obeying Him as He commanded. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq

Scripture instructs us to “Abide in Him.” What does this mean? By abiding in God, and allowing Him to do the same with us, we allow God to prune out branches that keep us from bearing much fruit. So it is imperative that we remain faithful to God, and that we obey his word. We all need to learn more about “being” and cut back on “doing.” Listen to Nik Ingram in this short episode, while he explains what this means. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq

Many people are content to stick their head in the sand and be doubtful in matters of faith. Why is that? It could be that knowing means you will be transformed and need to make changes in your belief system. This is very scary for most of us, but when we are confronted with an undeniable truth, it is bound to change us. This episode, made by Nik Ingram, discusses ignorance and intelligence, and the interaction between the two.

Have you been praying like many of us do? Do you say to our Father, “Dear God… I’ve got a problem, and here’s what you need to do to fix it?” Although it’s natural to doubt and feel discouraged at times, reach out to reconnect. Many times, we are asking for help according to our own will… trying to understand… maybe even to stay “one step ahead” of God. Join the conversation with Nik Ingram, as he helps us to explore and focus our yearning and understanding towards the faith process. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq

You should know that regardless of how your human father treated you, good, bad, or indifferently, you still have a father that’s loving and faithful. Making the paradigm shift to recognize God’s parental role in your life can be truly transformative. Like a child surrenders to the will of their parent, surrender yourself to the will of God, and a weight will be lifted from your shoulders. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq

Many people assume that Christianity is simple, and they give up when the going gets a little tougher than they expected. Patience, experience, and hope are all part of your journey as a Christian, and you can gain so much by embracing all these attributes. They are some of the building blocks of faith, and faith is the thread that runs through our ability to do God’s work and claim his promises.

What does a Christian look like? How do they act? Judging others is not a Christian attribute, but it is so common. It’s easy to accept other people’s perception of you as reality, but that doesn’t make sense. Trying to “play the part” may cause you to lose your focus on your calling. This short, thought-provoking episode with Nik Ingram brings out some great points about living the Christian life. It can get complicated but remember to stay true to the purpose that God has called you to. Remember, Jesus himself was a rebel in his time.

So if I’ve ever looked at a biblical character or looked through the Bible in a search and tried to find someone that I resonate with, it would probably be Noah. I have seen the Movie “Noah” and even though i’m certain Hollywood may have over dramatized some things, but really in my mind answered some “what if” questions. Imagine this guy who walks outside of his tent and he’s 50 years old and he’s tired and he sees the arc and he’s just frustrated. There’s no rain and maybe he hasn’t heard God’s voice in 50 years and he’s like, “not today.” I feel that way sometimes. I feel like God’s given me a dream and a vision about what Maggie and I are supposed to do with our life. And I experienced that at an early age. There have been many instances in my life where I feel God has given me a refinement about our dreams and our visions about things that he wants us to do in our purpose. But it’s not every day. God doesn’t speak to me every day. And so if I have character in the Bible who I resonate with. What’s beautiful and sad about that story is that sometimes what God means for good the, the world sometimes takes it and uses it for bad. And there’s a thing going around with the rainbow and this whole pride movement. I don’t think PRIDE something that we should celebrate. I think we should celebrate confidence. I think we should celebrate joy. I do believe that the rainbow in its original form, and it’s original beauty, was meant for one purpose. And that was for the promise. When God flooded the earth and he destroyed 99.99% of the human race, he produced a rainbow that was to remind us that he promises he will never destroy the earth again by water. He will do it by fire one day. God has promised us many things, specifically salvation. Whenever I look at a rainbow I am reminded of the story of Noah. I am also reminded of my own story. We have been conditioning Christians wrong this whole time because what we condition Christians to do is to save the world. Nobody had saved the world. God saved Noah. And God’s mission to Noah was to build an arc for himself and his family. And as a result, God would send all the animals to him. As Christians, we have been taught to “save the world.” But what has happened is we start to decide for ourselves who needs saving. We become judges. Most people don’t think of it like that. If I walk out of my office and look around at all he people and view it as my commission to “save the world” I get to judge who needs saving and who I’m going to witness too. So what does is it takes the focus off of me and puts the focus on the world when that was never the intention of the word of God. I begin to look at people and say, “I get to choose who saved and who’s not.” Of course we don’t believe that in reality, but our actions prove differently because now I walk out of the door of my house on a mission to save people. At that point my own personal convictions become my lens and my filter by which I decide who needs saving. If they’re not Pentecostal than they need to be Pentecostal. If they’re not baptist than they need to be baptist. If they’re smoking and I don’t smoke then I need to teach them about not smoking. So my own personal lens of my life gets filtered through who I choose needs saving. So here’s the reverse. The Bible says that a rivers of living water will flow out of us. As we become transformed the image and likeness of Christ, he begins to draw all people to him through me. I don’t have to save anybody. It completely takes the blood off of my hands because I haven’t signed myself up to save the world. What I’ve come to realize is that I have to find God for myself and in finding God for myself. And through this journey I can give people my experience and the tools that I’ve collected to help them make life a little bit easier.

Maybe you’ve heard the quote, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” You’ll find this quote in Proverbs 29:18 and informs us just how important your vision is, especially if you’re a leader.

Gratitude, Prayer, and Forgiveness… There’s not too much that these actions won’t help to heal. In this short episode, Nik Ingram brings you an overview of all three, and how you can leverage them to become your best self. Being grateful doesn’t have to mean keeping a formal gratitude journal if that’s not your thing.

Listen, as Nik explains how forgiveness can bring about lasting transformation in your life. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq

Our beliefs can help us achieve our dreams. These very same beliefs, if they are not based in reality, can keep us from achieving our goals. Just like Henry Ford said, “If you think you can do a thing, or think you can’t do a thing, you’re right. In this short, but profound episode, Nik Ingram gives several excellent examples of how our paradigm or belief system can help us to achieve greatness, or keep us from scoring the winning run. Reach out to Nik for help developing a powerful belief system that allows you to live your best life. **************************************************************************************************** Checkout the blog @ | blog.thedadproject.us Checkout mine and Maggie's stories and merch @ | lookatgod.co Like my Facebook Page | facebook.com/nikingramhq Follow me on Instagram @ | instagram.com/nikingramhq Follow me on twitter @ | twitter.com/nikingramhq
