If God has told you to take a stand against something wrong, He will give you the strength and encouragement you need for as long as you need it to continue the fight. It is amazing who and what He will use to help you get through tough times. http://who-god-is.com/right-is-right-even-if-everyone-is-against-it
God doesn’t require perfection and “having it all together in advance.” He wants to use you starting with where you are now to carry out His "purpose" for your life. http://who-god-is.com/accomplishing-gods-purpose-is-the-greatest-thing-you-can-pass-down-to-future-generations
The next time you are stressed out because you need an answer and God hasn’t given one yet, remember that sometimes He wants to see just how much you will trust Him and depend on Him to work everything out. http://who-god-is.com/dont-ask-god-for-deliverance-and-then-expect-him-to-do-it-your-way
Trials and tests can be tough, and most of the time we try to do everything possible to avoid them. But until you have faced adversity and overcome it, you will never know the immense strength God will provide to accomplish something you never thought possible. http://who-god-is.com/gods-school-of-testing-it-makes-you-stronger-than-you-ever-thought-possible
Truth is still truth no matter if you believe it to be the truth. So when you come face to face with it, what will you do? #truth #walkintruth http://who-god-is.com/when-you-stumble-over-the-truth-what-action-will-you-take
Will you look at the world around you and think God can’t use YOU to bring about change? Or will you be light in a dark world because you are following the plan that God has specifically chosen for YOUR life? http://who-god-is.com/do-you-embrace-change-or-do-you-fight-it
You must be open to change in order to be used by God to make a difference for eternity in the life of someone else. Satan desires to keep us dull, lifeless and only thinking of ourselves and our own problems. As long as he can do that, he has won a huge battle in our lives. http://who-god-is.com/make-sure-you-dont-feel-without-acting-especially-if-its-something-important
People get frustrated and burnt out when they do things that are not what God has told them to do. But… when you are in the center of His Will, the ideas come at break-neck speed and you find that you absolutely cannot carry all them out without God sending others to help you and share your vision. http://who-god-is.com/how-a-word-from-god-can-radically-affect-your-life
10-15 minutes per day might not seem like much when you think about it in the context of just one day. But when you do it consistently for 365 days, it turns into a very positive thing that can dramatically change your life. http://who-god-is.com/the-no-fail-way-to-start-and-continue-a-daily-bible-study
God reveals His Plan; then He prepares you to carry out His Plan. As you are waiting for that to happen, He sends you through the wilderness of testing to grow, refine, and strengthen you. When you come out of the wilderness, you are ready to be used for His Glory. http://who-god-is.com/the-wilderness-its-where-god-grows-and-refines-you
To know when and how to leave a situation is just as important as knowing God has told you to leave the situation. God WILL give you the supernatural strength to do what God has called you to do. http://who-god-is.com/how-to-know-for-sure-when-its-time-to-leave-a-situation
Allow God to use YOU to leave a lasting legacy for good like He was able to use Hannah. But Eli And Annas chose to disobey God and suffered grave consequences! http://who-god-is.com/eli-and-annas-2-people-who-left-a-terrible-lasting-legacy
We must constantly make sure that our eye has not become diseased and that our body is not full of darkness (shadiness or obscurity) instead of light (luminous, to shine). The bright shining of a candle means glaring or lightning. When our eye is single it is folded together or clear. We can see things very clearly. http://who-god-is.com/your-eye-is-the-lamp-of-your-body
Real love is doing what is best for the other person – not just giving them what they think they want at the time. Sometimes God has to say NO to our selfish prayers because He knows if He give us certain things it will not be good for us and will draw us away from Him. http://who-god-is.com/what-does-it-mean-to-truly-love-others
When God brings deliverance, it will usually be in a way you never imagined. http://who-god-is.com/dont-give-up-until-you-see-god-move-on-your-behalf
Be not afraid nor dismayed...the battle is not yours but Gods. 2 Chronicles 20: 15 God gave Israel an awesome deliverance because they fully trusted Him and walked in obedience to His instructions. http://who-god-is.com/the-battle-is-not-yours-but-gods
Your job is to sow good seeds each day and leave the results to God as to how he wants to grow and prosper those seeds you have sown. Don’t put God in a box and expect Him to only act in a certain way to meet a need or solve a problem. Be open to whatever way He chooses to handle things. http://who-god-is.com/sowing-seeds-you-will-either-reap-a-good-or-bad-harvest
The ancient refinement process for gold removed silver as a dross. God does the same in your life to purify you for that which is MOST PRECIOUS. http://who-god-is.com/silver-is-valuable-but-it-keeps-the-gold-from-being-100-pure
Don't just do good things that keep you busy if they are not ordained and anointed by God. But if you are a people pleaser, it might be hard to stop doing some of the things that may have unknowingly become your identity. http://who-god-is.com/let-the-holy-spirit-fill-your-daily-calendar-dont-just-do-stuff
Accomplishing God's purposes for your life is the greatest thing you can pass down to future generations. As you walk in God's Will, the things of this world will pale in comparison to the awsesomeness of seeing how He works in your life. http://who-god-is.com/nothing-matters-more-than-knowing-gods-purposes-for-your-life
You trade your life for something every day. You can be limited, be destroyed, or grow by things around you, how you react to them and how much they influence you. http://who-god-is.com/always-keep-the-main-thing-the-main-thing
No one can be responsible for where or how we each begin. No one has the freedom to do anything or everything, and all choices bring consequences. What we choose to do next, though, how to spend our resources or attention or effort, this is what defines us. http://who-god-is.com/its-your-choice-what-will-you-choose-to-do-next
Jesus became the once-and-for-all High Priest who paved the way for unholy man to be able to reach a HOLY GOD. http://who-god-is.com/jesus-our-once-for-all-great-high-priest
Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible. Have you lost your sense of urgency to pray for miracles in the lives of those around you who might desperately need a touch from God? http://who-god-is.com/the-impossible-when-was-the-last-time-you-expected-god-to-do-it
Christians need to show a WORLD IN GREAT NEED that God is meeting OUR needs, working in OUR everyday lives in a supernatural way, and doing “impossible” things on a regular basis in OUR lives. It is only then that a world in such desperate need will start to let OUR God become THEIR GOD! http://who-god-is.com/believing-prayer-the-holy-spirit-acts-powerfully-through-it
Sometimes God tells you to hard things, but I have found that He will always give you the courage, understanding, strength, and endurance to do whatever He has called you to do. You CAN DO IT IF you depend on Him. http://who-god-is.com/if-god-is-the-water-is-your-spiritual-faucet-open-or-closed
The “confidence” of Hebrews 11:6 in God is sort of like driving at night. Your headlights can only beam a short distance ahead, but as YOU keep moving ahead they will continue to show the same short distance until you finally reach your destination. God won't always show you the whole picture, but you can have the confidence to know that God sees it and always wants the best for you. http://who-god-is.com/the-foundation-of-faith-is-confidence-in-god
Every person in the Bible whom God used in a mighty way had to go through an “emptying of self.” God could then work through them using His Power to accomplish supernatural things. But it’s a waste of time, energy, and resources to try to do something that is supernatural when you are not allowing God to work through you in a supernatural way. http://who-god-is.com/emptying-of-self-is-not-easy-but-worth-it
Emotions aren’t wrong in and of themselves, but you always have a choice as to what you will do when you experience them. http://who-god-is.com/emotions-can-either-build-up-or-destroy-you-decide-which
Fear of man must die in our life. For if the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, the fear of man is the beginning of misery, compromise, and disappointment. http://who-god-is.com/what-does-dying-to-self-really-mean
How God chooses to use you is up to Him, but if you desire to be used by Him, you must make the choice to be a part of what He is doing. Walking into the unknown is scary; but when you think about it, living your whole life crawling around in the “dung” in the bat cave is much more scary. http://who-god-is.com/dont-crawl-around-in-dung-when-fresh-green-leaves-are-just-yards-away
Disobedience to God is never a good thing, but sometimes it turns out to be a terrible thing that changes your life forever. http://who-god-is.com/disobedience-to-god-can-be-an-awful-thing
Satan will always desire to fill your thinking with false knowledge and he always wants you to be ignorant of the truth when it comes to making major decisions. http://who-god-is.com/beware-of-false-knowledge-it-is-more-dangerous-than-ignorance
We Christians need to show a WORLD IN GREAT NEED that God is meeting OUR needs, working in OUR lives in a supernatural way, and doing "impossible" things on a regular basis in OUR lives. It is only then that a world in such desperate need will start to let OUR God become THEIR GOD! http://who-god-is.com/believing-prayer-the-holy-spirit-works-powerfully-through-it
God tells you this for a reason - to keep you strong and in the best of physical, mental, and spiritual health. I found out the hard way that constant anxiety for an extended period of time does affect you negatively in just about every way. God is capable of handling any problem, not matter how large or small. But you must make the decision to allow Him to handle it. http://who-god-is.com/anxiety-and-worry-will-injure-your-soul-dont-allow-it
God desires to make a tremendous thing of your life, so He sends adversity to grow and mature you as a Christian. This makes you either run to Him or run away from Him and try to handle things yourself. http://who-god-is.com/god-sends-hard-tests-to-grow-and-mature-you-as-a-christian
Act out of who you are, not what you feel. The Holy Spirit wants to mature you to the point that your feelings don't control how you act. You make the choice to act based on the wisdom you already have, and you immediately pray for specific wisdom to handle this situation in a way that is pleasing to God. http://who-god-is.com/act-out-of-who-you-are-not-what-you-feel
