Text of the page (random words):
relationship with jesus christ is that we need to hear directly from him concerning those things that are trash in our lives those things that are obstacles to the abundant life he has planned for us obstacles separating us from our father for instance i like sugar but it makes my blood sugar level go up so high that i get very disoriented my body is personally telling me not to eat sugary foods you can tell me to stop all you want but until i personally feel it confirmed in my body i won t listen to you because it s something i love i don t want to give it up i can choose not to listen to my body but my health will suffer trash in our lives is like that only god s holy spirit can make us desire to give it up so when we ask jesus to take control of our life that gives the holy spirit permission to help us give it up cart it out sin is trash we don t need trusted spiritual leaders can confirm truths to us but only the holy spirit can convict us and convince us we need to hear from god personally about when it s trash day at our house and in our hearts obey take it out of our lives forever let it all go we can choose not to listen but our spiritual condition will suffer our relationship with god will suffer but when he the spirit of truth comes he will guide you into all truth he will not speak on his own he will speak only what he hears and he will tell you what is yet to come john 16 13 niv there is a way that seems right to a man but in the end it leads to death proverbs 14 12 niv give it up it s trash day what do we have to trash things from our old life that take up too much of our time replace them with time to go to the gym or to go to a bible study god stretches us out of our comfort zones it feels uncomfortable sometimes it s exhausting it s just like when i go to my chiropractor and get aligned my back hurts the next day it s not used to being aligned correctly we must sort the things in our lives carefully we can t give up real treasures the things of real value the things for eternity we ll end up regretting it the joy of the lord is our strength keep that joy the holy spirit convinces us of the things that need to stay our relationship with jesus the eternal value our relationships with family friends co workers even our beloved pets things that bring joy but the trash needs to go what do you need the holy spirit to trash in your

sagescenery standard our destination heaven who are we going to live with god who s on this flight those who are saved and ready to go to heaven who has a ticket everyone who paid the price jesus how did he pay the price he died for us this is a devotional about the holy spirit for our drama team that the lord gave me waking me up at 3 am to write it all down as is his usual way of doing things ha picture this he said people are on a huge commercial airliner flying to heaven i m the pilot i m the only way to get there i m going to get everyone there safely but there s work to be done on the way to heaven in the coach section are all those who are saved those who have given their hearts to me the first class section positioned right behind me are all those filled with my holy spirit is there a difference lord in the two sections i asked yes there s a big difference he replied lord i ve never flown first class i can t afford the price but if someone paid the price for me i wouldn t refuse it why would i i wouldn t chose to stay in the coach section where it s more crowded it s loud has only peanuts to eat has tiny bathrooms and no way to rest peacefully i mentioned i d love to get an upgrade to first class where there s more leg room better food more pampering nice cozy blankets and pillows peace and quiet a joyful ride a place to put your feet up and really relax how can i do that lord when i can t pay for it i asked it s easy i already paid the price just trust your pilot he said who are those on the ground lord i asked those are the people who don t know me yet he said sadly you mean sinners lord i asked i like to think of them as those who haven t heard yet how much i love them he answered they re carrying so much baggage lord i commented yes i told them i would carry all of it for them but they don t believe me yet that s some of the work we need to do on our way to heaven go and tell them leave your baggage at home no cargo space is needed on this plane that goes to heaven no carry on luggage space needed either only the essentials are needed on board that you know me my father and his holy spirit it s a no brainer i believe in the holy spirit if someone wanted to bless me with a gift of a first class airline ticket what would i do duh take it and fly in coach i d be comfortable but would i be soaring i d only be thinking about my own comfort or lack of it in first class you can roam around the cabin socialize fellowship witness sleep restfully you can even go back and talk to those in coach you can encourage them that they too can get a ticket to first class by being filled with the holy spirit or before you even get on the plane you can inspire and encourage those still on the ground to lay down their baggage and board the plane to heaven they may want what you have but they thought they couldn t pay the price either but if they know jesus they can and why just fly coach when jesus paid the price for you to fly first class where you ve been given the authority and power of your pilot the privilege to sit up front closer to him the safest place to be is right behind our lord where he can fight your battles for you where you have boldness to witness to others in the right seat position to pamper love on others get off the plane at the next stop find out how to serve god he s filled you to overflowing with his joy go spread some around wherever you go to those on the ground and bring them back on board with you the first class section should be the biggest section on board the plane to heaven coach should just be a holding station til they too are filled with god s holy spirit no one should be left on the ground everyone should come to know jesus and get on board the baptism in the holy spirit is a gift don t return the gift it s a gift you re gift by telling everyone else about it the holy spirit moving in our churches for corporate worship or in our individual lives for power the book of acts tongues as of fire a rushing mighty wind i believe in it all because that s what it feels like that s what it looks like i know from experience it s for me today and for you too pray to god the father for the infilling of his holy spirit worship the giver and he will give you the gift and because it s a gift just take it jesus rose and went to heaven so he could send his holy spirit to lead us into all truth he s our comforter eccles 4 1 i saw the tears of the oppressed and they have no comforter why not want all that our gracious heavenly father has prepared for us his son is our glorious savior we can be filled with his righteousness and his holy spirit is our comforter and our counselor power to witness to lead a pure life and to be filled with his joy ask for it receive it live it it s like being born all over again it s a redo starting from scratch reborn to live with joy now a changed life a changed attitude in the blink of an eye generational curses broken weakness turned to strength sickness turned to health anointed to witness with wisdom and understanding it s crazy yes crazy love read frances chan s book crazy love be a follower of jesus not a fan read kyle idelman s book not a fan it s having the ultimate friend listen to i am a friend of god by israel houghton with god s holy spirit in you you have it all everything that jesus has you have read john bevere s book relentless upgrade it s like your insides got a car wash and your outside looks shinier the beauty of this upgrade free access to the pilot jesus who s taking you to heaven favor with god pampering healing how to receive this accept it it s a gift tell the lord you re movin on up relax take your shoes off put on your slippers read study watch tv stick in your ear buds and listen to your favorite music everything has been prepared for you so you don t have to do anything someone else is carrying your load for you a pillow is placed under your head cool beverages are offered delectable treats are brought to you then have restful sleep no annoyances loud sounds silly chatter slip on jesus robe of righteousness be covered with the cozy blanket of his love decide to take the first class airplane ride to heaven coach is good and will get you to your destination but first class gets you there in style and when you pray for the first class holy spirit know that it is god s perfect will for you for you to go up to the next level in serving god bringing no baggage with you to change the world we need a larger first class a smaller coach section and less people left on the ground get

rev i feel blessed beyond belief i ve been working on courses for my licensed minister s certificate for approximately 11 years on saturday september 29th 2012 i m going to be commissioned i ve been working on it while i was teaching full time in nj raising my son caring for my parents directing vacation bible school in the summers coordinating girls club on wednesdays taking courses for my master s degree selling and packing up my mom s house and our house in nj moving all of us to fl teaching kids church in our new church in fl and wednesday night kids club speaking at women s meetings taking care of my mom and her health problems before she passed away taking courses to renew my fl teaching certificate substituting and going back to work part time etc etc etc and i m finally finished amen and praise god my family is full of minister s my uncle was my pastor when i was growing up many of my cousins are pastor s of churches or ministers of music our e mail and phone prayer networking is amazing when we pray things happen in heaven i started taking one course at my church in nj with a group of people and one class led to another and then another courses such as life of christ introduction to theology marriage and family sermon preparation soul winning how to study the bible biblical theology of prayer and missions i loved it then when we got to fl no one else was taking courses at my church so i did a few by myself but when hurricane charlie hit us and things in our house turned to destruction i lost track of my books which got shoved back in the deep corners of my closet i had just finished new testament survey and had gotten several chapters done in old testament survey it was a bad place to get distracted because that s a difficult course so many names to remember and lots of begats ha so after we recovered completely from the aftermath of renovation after the hurricane several years had gone by and i finally retrieved my old testament survey
