T.O.D.A.Y.'S  ENCOURAGEMENT for Aug. 31, 2006

Good Morning!
 
Once again, I am going to give you the list that The Lord gave me in order to see the "manifestation" of your "expectation".  He called it~~~~~
 
                                  GOD'S PRINCIPLES for "STAYING POWER" 
 
#1.   Stay  "committed"
 #2.   Stay  "focused"
 #3.   Stay  "faithful"
 #4.   Stay  "steadfast"
 #5.   Stay  "determined"
 #6.   Stay  "disciplined"
 #7.   Stay  "diligent"
 
The Lord has shown me that when we "apply" these principles  to whatever we are believing God to do for us, then they are like a "spiritual adhesive"!  Think about it!  Many scriptures talk about the fact that we need to "cleave" to The Lord and also to "cleave" to His covenant promises, plans and purpose for us . . . well, the definition of the word "cleave" is . . . "to adhere to, cling to" . . . in other words, to "stick like GLUE"!
 
Are we getting the "picture"?  Come on now, guys and gals...if God has "committed" something to you (entrusted you with something), or if you have committed something to Him (and are trusting Him to take care of it) . . . then STICK WITH IT!
 
I am reminded of a "product" that you can buy that is called "De-solve-it".  If you are not familiar with it . . . it helps you to remove the "glue" that is used on price-stickers, etc. that are on different items that you have purchased!  (Oh, I just love the way The Holy Spirit leads!)  Well, the devil wants to sell you his "brand" of  SPIRITUAL GLUE REMOVAL . . . it is called  "Dis-couragement"!   Don't buy it!!! 
 
Tomorrow, I want to talk about the "rewards" of staying DILIGENT!  This is the last principle that is "listed". It is what "undergirds" all of the other principles, and it is the one that will help you "STICK WITH IT" until you see the manifestation of your expectation!
 
Have a Blessed Day!!            ("Stick with it"!)           In His Love, Luanne
