Vision
Do not be afraid to have a LARGE vision for your life. And do not assume it will take a long time for God to manifest it. Your job is to hold the vision and the commitment to see it through. Step forward in faith, and God will put the pieces together in ways you never imagined!

Believe
As you wrestle with your doubts, your pain, your failures, your shortcomings, you cleave to your belief in God. But it is imperative you know one very important thing: GOD ALSO BELIEVES IN YOU. God has NO doubts about your abilities, your talents, and readiness for the task. And if God believes in you . . .You should believe in yourself
God
All things work together for the Glory of God! Your assignment is to remain focused and faithful, to be a cheerful servant and to meet each day and those in it with love and compassion!

Like no other
God is a spirit but not like humans or animals (John 4:24). He cannot be represented by any created thing. Any attempt to create a representation like that is blastphemy ( Exodus 4:2-6). God does never changes (Malachi 3:5). He knows everything (1 John 3:20). He is present everywhere (Psalm 139:7-13). He is Holy and glorious (Isaiah 6:3). He is just (Deuteronomy:32:4) and will judge all sins and unrighteouness (Jude 1:15).
As you can see it is not wise to compare God to humans or animals, Human beings cannot do any of these things nor can animals, I remember reading an article somewhere a long time ago that the human body actually loses two (2) ounces when we die. Animals keep the same weight when they die. Where did the human weight go? It was suggested by some medical professionals that this was the spirit leaving the body. The other doctors said that it was just a mystery that could not be explained. I just thought I would add this information. It is interesting to say the least. Now lets continue on to spiritualism.
Spiritualists do not believe in Heaven or Hell (Matthew 10:28; 25:46) nor do they believe in evil spirits (Mark 5:8 and Matthew 12:43).They don't believe in salvation by faith in Christ either (Ephesians 2:8-9). They believe human life continues after death, where everyone has the opportunity to progress to better and higher and grow more spiritually. These conditions are open to everyone. This is an attempt to combine Christianity with the occult practices.

Obamas obscene expenses
Obama’s Travel Cost $96 Million Over Eight Years
For a couple that has spent eight years apologizing for their country, the Obamas have nevertheless managed to enjoy its taxpayer-provided bounty.
For a couple that has spent eight years apologizing for their country, the Obamas have nevertheless managed to enjoy its taxpayer-provided bounty.
This week, thanks to the work of our intrepid investigators and hard-charging lawyers, we released to the public several reports from the Secret Service and the Air Force that bring the known total of Obama travel expense over the past eight years to a staggering $96,938,882.51.
The new reports contain details of the costs of Obama’s Earth Day trip to the Florida Everglades, a political fundraising trip to San Diego, Michelle’s annual Aspen ski trip, her trip to Morocco, the family vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, as well as Hillary’s ride with Obama on Air Force One to North Carolina.
We received this information after filing two separate Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits, asking the court to enjoin the Secret Service from withholding responsive documents from Judicial Watch (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:15-cv-01983)) and (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:16-cv-00863)). The Secret Service is a component of the Department of Homeland Security.
Secret Service records reveal that Barack Obama’s April 22, 2015, Earth Day trip to give a global warming speech in the Florida Everglades cost taxpayers $145,752.36, which brings the total cost of the trip to at least $1,012,367.76.
The Secret Service records for Obama’s October 2015 fundraising travel to San Diego reveal expenses totaling $180,187.09. Including the U.S. Air Force expenses, the total cost of Obama’s San Diego trip was at least $2,181,655.99.
Michelle Obama’s February 2016 ski trip to Aspen with her daughters cost taxpayers a total of $222,875.58. The Secret Service expenses were $165,806.78. Judicial Watch previously obtained records from the Air Force revealing that Michelle Obama’s weekend trip to Aspen, Colorado, last year cost American taxpayers $57,068.80 in travel expenses alone for the 7.4-hour round-trip flight.
Judicial Watch obtained records from the U.S. Air Force and the Secret Service revealing that Barack Obama’s trip to Cuba and Argentina in March 2016 cost taxpayers $7,146,015.18 in Secret Service and Air Force travel expenses.
Air Force records regarding Michelle Obama’s trip to Morocco, Spain and Liberia with her daughters in June 2016 revealed $450,026.40 in flight expenses alone. A C-32A was flown for 28.4 hours.
Judicial Watch recently obtained Air Force records which reveal that the Obama’s August 2016 vacation to Martha’s Vineyard cost taxpayers $450,295 in flight expenses alone.
Judicial Watch also recently obtained records from the Air Force showing that in July 2016 taxpayers paid $360,236 for Hillary Clinton to accompany Obama on Air Force One for a campaign trip to North Carolina.
Also, in October 2016 Michele Obama joined Hillary Clinton in North Carolina for a rally reportedly to “encourage early voting in North Carolina.” Documents regarding this trip have been requested but have not yet been received. The First Lady typically flies in a C-32 A so the 1.8 hour flight could safely be estimated to have cost taxpayers $28,522.80.

The Obamas’ notorious abuse of presidential travel perks wasted military resources and stressed the Secret Service. JW estimates that the final costs of Obama’s unnecessary vacation and political travel will well exceed $100 million. You can see how President-elect Trump can immediately save taxpayers money by reforming presidential travel.

Prayer
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, we need to be strong in the Lord. We need to be growing in the Word. We need to spend time in prayer and fasting. We need to come together in fellowship and worship. Our nation is in trouble. It doesn't matter who the president is. If our nation doesn't repent of sin, then our nation will suffer serious consequences. God will not ignore sin. He is Holy. He sent His Son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins. That's serious business. God didn't take it lightly. If our nation ignores that then we could cease to be a nation. I believe that Donald Trump can do some good and improve things, but he needs your prayers. He can't do anything without God's help. Jesus is and always will be our only true hope. If our nation continues in sin then we have lost our nation. Read, study, and memorize your Bible while you can. If they ever succeed in taking away our guns, then don't be shocked if some day they come after your Bible. Read your Bible so you know how God wants you to live and how He can help you. He loves you, but Satan is active in our world trying to destroy you. If you don't read your Bible regularly then you are at a big disadvantage. Brothers and sisters in Christ, the Bible says to grow in the Lord and to study the Word and to come together as God's people for prayer, fellowship, and worship. Please take this seriously while you still can because someday you may loose this privilege. Amen.
Alcohol
Getting drunk is a sin, but what about drinking in moderation? Drinking alcohol has been the subject of debate within the church for centuries, but never more so than in recent years. With the shift toward postmodernism, practices that were once discouraged by the Christian community have been embraced and even promoted. The open consumption of alcohol is one of those practices. In Bible times, anyone set apart for God was to totally abstain from any fruit of the vine (Judges 13:4; Leviticus 10:9; Numbers 6:3; Luke 1:15). Wine was often symbolic of worldly contamination, and those called into priestly service were to keep themselves from it. Such warnings have led many followers of Christ to forgo alcohol altogether, deeming any use of it unwise. Although drinking in moderation is not condemned in Scripture, there are many warnings about its destructive nature (Proverbs 20:1; 31:4). So why does the Bible speak so strongly against becoming affected by alcohol? Ephesians 5:18 holds the key: “Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.” Two elements are being compared: alcohol and the Holy Spirit. Each has the power to take control of a person’s mind and behavior—with vastly different results. Getting drunk leads to a loss of self-control; being filled with the Spirit leads to more self-control (Galatians 5:22–23). We cannot be controlled by both alcoholic spirits and the Holy Spirit at the same time. When we choose to ingest mind-altering substances, we are effectively choosing to give ourselves over to the control of something other than the Holy Spirit. Anything that takes control of our mind, will, and emotions is a false god. Any master we obey other than the Lord is an idol, and idolatry is sin (1 Corinthians 10:14).

The real terrorist
Want to know the real truth? Who has done more to destroy this nation than anyone else . . . .
Almost anybody in America can give you some kind of a listing of the most destructive acts of terror that have happened in our country. But let me suggest to you this: The two greatest attacks of terror on America were perpetrated by the Supreme Court. Not by any Muslim, but by the Supreme Court of the United States. The first one was the legalizing of abortion. Subsequent to that, there have been millions of babies slaughtered in the wombs of their mothers. It’s incalculable to even comprehend that. The blood of those lives cries out from the ground for divine vengeance on this nation.
The second great act of terror perpetrated by the Supreme Court was the legalization of same-sex marriage. The destruction of human life in the womb—in a sense, the destruction of motherhood—and now the destruction of the family itself. No bomb, no explosion, no attack, and no assault on people physically can come anywhere near that kind of terrorism. Our country is being terrorized by the people most responsible to protect it—those who are to uphold the law.
No human court has the authority to redefine morality. But this human court has said murder is not murder; and marriage is not marriage; and family is not family. They have usurped the authority that belongs only to God, who is the creator of life, marriage, and family. Any and all attempts to define morality differently than God has is a form of rebellion and blasphemy—blasphemy against God, against His holy nature, and His holy law, and His holy people.

Salvation
How you see God is how you experience His salvation, or eternal life in Christ Jesus. As we see in Psalm 91, seeing God as our deliverer entitles us to these benefits such as divine protection from disease, from harm, walking in divine protection (in all your ways, verse 11), etc. God said in verse 14 that He would deliver us and set us on High because we call upon Him and recognize Him.
