Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the

requirements of God’s law. Romans 13:10 NLT 

His Good is Great\n

Let\u2019s get this out in the open \u2013 I don\u2019t want your house. I don\u2019t want your woman, your anointing, your ministry, your connections or your relationships. I don\u2019t want your success, your job or your money. What do I want? I want what no man can give me. I want what God has for me.\n

\u201cFor I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the\u202fLord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.\u201d \u2013 Jeremiah 29:11\n

Do you want what God has for you, or are you still hung up on what others have? If you are not convinced that what God has for you is the best, let me invade your soul with God\u2019s promise for your life. Stay with me here!\n

Did you know that Israel and horses don\u2019t mix? In its 3,000-year history, Israel has never had a cavalry. It never had horses in its army except for a brief time when one of the kings aligned himself with an ungodly nation.\n

It didn\u2019t go well. So, why doesn\u2019t God allow Israel to have horses? Because Israel was not to be a conquering nation in conquest of other nations.\n

In other words, God didn\u2019t want them looking at Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, or Egypt and saying, \u201cI want what they have. Their stuff is nicer than mine!\u201d Their job was to conquer and occupy the land God had given them. Believe me, it was a full-time job!\n

This is God\u2019s plan for your life: Your job is to occupy the territory He has given you. This includes your family, your job, your circle of friends, your ministries, church and even your thought life. You are supposed to conquer this territory for HIM and His glory. Just as it is for Israel, it is a full-time job and one only you can accomplish! It\u2019s time to cure the pattern of, \u201cIt\u2019s not fair! I\u2019ll get mine!\u201d once and for all!","hover":"\nWhich Wolf Do You Feed?\n

Jesus-driven thinking helps and heals. This is what the Bible has to say on the subject: For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. \u2013 Romans 8:6\n

The Cherokee nation knew it, too. Check out this spot-on tribal tale:\n

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life. He told the boy, \u201cA terrible fight is going on inside me. It is a fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and self-doubt.\"\n

The old man continued: \u201cThe other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.\u201d He then told the boy, \u201cThis same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too.\u201d\n

The grandson thought about it for a minute, then asked his grandfather, \u201cWhich wolf will win?\u201d The wise old chief replied, \u201cThe one you feed.\u201d\n

What wolf have you been feeding? Just know the wolf of evil thoughts will eventually devour you, and likely others as well. Thoughts become actions, and there is always collateral damage.\n

That\u2019s not you! You can control your thought life and ensure the evil wolf starves to death."}},"slug":"et_pb_blurb"}">His Good is Great

God has a plan and a purpose for me, and I know it is a good one. I bless others around me and know that God blesses them with good things, too. I want only what He wants me to have – many things are “good”, but I want the “God things” of my life because those are the best of all for me!
