Soak your thoughts....

Authenticity:
God will use me only to the extent to which I am true to what I know.

My temptation is to think that If I am myself – people might be turned off.

But I know that when I am not myself – God is turned off.

One of the worst things I can do is to take compliments seriously.

Approval:
“If you want to be free of the fear of man, start telling the truth.”

Anointing:


It is possible to do Christian activity without the touch of God. But when there is the touch of God, when you are operating in the Spirit, the supernatural seems natural. Everything easy is not our anointing. We can identify anointing because it blesses and encourages others. The gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. It’s sobering to think that I can be a hypocrite in my personal life and the gift still function. But this eternal reality drives me to deepen my character: in heaven we won’t be rewarded for gifts, we’ll be rewarded for obedience.
