The Christian Life Is a Marathon

The Christian Life Is a Marathon. You prepare differently for a short race than you do for a longer race. The 50-yard sprint is different from a mile run, so you prepare differently. I have a spiritual son in Omaha named Lincoln Murdoch who runs marathons. He is living for God even harder than he lives for races. He says pain is always part of the race, but he runs to win. https://www.lincolnmurdoch.com/ Three-Time National Champion in Triathlon / Duathlon. Endurance Sports Specialist. https://www.stepuptolife.com/. Step Up to Life. “We help you feel confident sharing the Gospel.” He is ordained to be a winner for God, not just for this world but also for the next and he's working it out that way. Philippians 3 offers profound insight into the Christian walk as a long-distance run, with purpose in every step. Paul writes in Philippians 3:10 (KJV), “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.” 1. The Power of His Resurrection. This isn’t just about Jesus rising from the dead, but about His resurrection becoming your reality. It transforms your life from mere religion to a living relationship with Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature… all things are become new.” True transformation means living like Christ, not returning to old sinful ways and claim God blesses it. 2. The Fellowship of His Sufferings. Jesus suffered immensely, from the Via Dolorosa to Golgotha. Yet Hebrews 12:11 (NLT) teaches, “No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening… but afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living.” Fellowship with Christ’s sufferings means dying to the flesh, refusing worldly desires, and letting the Spirit lead daily. Galatians 2:20 says, “I am crucified with Christ… Christ liveth in me.” 3/ Being Made Conformable to His Death. This speaks to fully surrendering yourself so Jesus can live through you. John the Baptist understood, “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30). Living for God means pursuing His will over your own and preparing for the long race of faith, just as a marathon runner trains with endurance. Paul speaks further in Philippians 3:12, “Not as though I had already attained… but I follow after.” God personally chose you, sent someone with the Gospel, and by His Spirit presses you into godly living. Your old self is dead; the race you now run is one of discipline, endurance, and eternal purpose.

Costs of Misunderstanding Eternal Realities

Costs of Misunderstanding Eternal Realities. The primary attention that God is trying to get is the church. The primary judgment begins at the House of God (1 Peter 4:17). God doesn't say your primary purpose is trying to win over the opposite political party. You're trying to win the favor of God so He can back your devotion and call. The challenge with the church is that they're so far away from God that they talk as if the world and the devil's children are a real foe to Almighty God.
Jesse Jackson, a minister, is responsible for welcoming the gay community into the Democratic Party and his Rainbow Coalition because he introduced the unbiblical claim that they were just another minority, like Blacks. That is a historical fact. You can find his speeches online.
It is a scary thing to consider the judgment of God against the sins of man that are clearly lies against eternal reality. Judgment will also come on a church that sees people in sin and excuses it without ever telling them their eternal destiny.
God created man to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth. Adam and his wife began that process of natural birth through the union of the marriage bed. Conception comes from God. Birth has to come from God. That is why gay lifestyles and abortion are such an abomination.
God had to send Jesus to be a sacrifice for sin and Jesus, the Last Adam, is now populating the heavens. The first group of natural man lives a temporary life and will have to face judgment day. The wicked dead will be forever separated from God because they are unlike Him.
The goal of believers in Jesus is to become like God and populate the heavens. The invisible world is the real world. The challenge of the church is that leaders know a lot about the natural, but almost nothing about the eternal. They're saved from hell, but they live underneath the level of their birthright. They are born from above, but they never cultivate an understanding of eternal realities.

This Is What It Means to Repent

This is What it Means to Repent
Repentance is at the heart of the Christian faith, forming the entryway into the Kingdom of God. Jesus’ very first words in the Gospel of Mark emphasize its significance: “The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye, and believe the Gospel” (Mark 1:15). But what does it truly mean to repent?
At its core, repentance is acknowledging one’s current state of imperfection, admitting sin, and turning back to God. It requires a deep, inward transformation that begins with the honesty to confront where you stand in relation to God’s will. This is the very step Adam failed to take. When confronted in the Garden of Eden, Adam never admitted his transgressions, never claimed responsibility for disobeying God’s commands. His failure to repent ushered in death and separation from God for humanity, as stated in Romans 5.
Through Jesus Christ, the last Adam, life was restored to the world, but the pathway to that life is paved with repentance. It is not a one-time action but an ongoing process where believers continually turn from sin and grow toward godliness. While repentance begins with acknowledging sin, it leads to being conformed to the image of Christ by allowing the Kingdom of God, now residing within believers, to transform them from the inside out.
The call to repent is not one of condemnation but of invitation. It acknowledges our need for God’s grace as we walk the path of perfection. Repentance is a daily act of yielding to God, shedding worldly inclinations, and aligning closer with His purpose. This is where fasting, prayer, and a life devoted to Christ play a transformative role. The goal is death to the flesh and life to God.
As believers, we grow in this process, knowing the faith is perfected only through Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12). Repentance goes beyond words and intentions; it cultivates a heart in constant submission to God’s sovereignty.
This is what it means to repent: to humbly turn toward God, admit our shortcomings, and allow His Kingdom to flourish within us. Reflect today on where you stand before God and take that step in the direction of His grace. The Kingdom of God is both near and within you. Will you answer the call?

Jesus Pleased His Father from the Inside Out

Jesus Pleased His Father from the Inside Out
We live in alignment with God's will. That is where our priorities should lie. 1 John 2:15 (KJV) boldly states, "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." John challenges us to examine our hearts and actions, steering away from worldly distractions that pull us farther from God's purpose for us.
John emphasizes three key areas of sin in 1 John 2:16 (KJV): “the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” These sins revolve around pride and self-centered desires, whether it’s indulging physical cravings, envying what others have, or seeking self-glorification. Yet, these worldly ambitions are fleeting, as the scripture reminds us in 1 John 2:17 (KJV): “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.”
To resist these temptations, God calls us to change from the inside out and live in obedience as Jesus did. Even during trials, Jesus fully submitted to God’s plan. After His baptism, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him, marking God's pleasure in Him. "You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy,” the Father proclaimed in Mark 1:11. This declaration celebrated Jesus’ obedience—not just outwardly, but from the inside out.
Scripture continually highlights the importance of obedience. God was pleased with Abraham's willingness to leave his homeland in Genesis 12, and through the prophet Samuel, He declared, “to obey is better than sacrifice” (1 Samuel 15:22, KJV). Obedience positions us in alignment with God’s will, compelling us to grow spiritually and live a life centered on Him.
When we pursue God's priorities over the world's, starting with obedience, holiness flows naturally. Job’s covenant with his eyes (Job 31:1) or the call to modesty in our actions and dress remind us to resist the pull of worldly temptation and reset our focus. Whether we’re battling lust, envy, or pride, the solution lies in surrendering to God’s will.
The world tempts us to live for fleeting pleasures, yet its promises are hollow. A life lived for God finds eternal joy and purpose. Today, reflect on whether you’re pleasing the world or pleasing your Heavenly Father. Begin your renewal by seeking His Spirit to guide you from the inside out. Obeying Him is always the path to true fulfillment.

This Is Not the Time to Be Silent

This Is Not the Time to Remain Silent.
Jesus' ministry began with clarity and purpose. In Jesus’ first words in the New Testament, John the Baptist objected to baptizing Him, but Jesus responded, "We must carry out all that God requires" (Matthew 3:15 NLT). Jesus prioritized doing God's will over yielding to John’s misplaced humility, aligning His actions with divine order.
Later, in the wilderness, Jesus confronted the devil in the wilderness. He met each instance of temptation with the truth of God’s Word so He defeated the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. By speaking up, Jesus demonstrated unwavering obedience and authority over the devil.
Contrast this with Adam's failure in the Garden. While the devil deceived Eve, Adam was present (Genesis 3:6), yet he remained silent. Adam was not deceived (1 Timothy 2:14). He knew what was happening, yet he failed to take a stand. His silence allowed the serpent’s lies to take root, leading to sin and separation from God.
This raises a crucial question for us today: Are we too remaining silent when confronted with evil?
Adam’s failure to speak up in the Garden had catastrophic results—not only for himself but for all of humanity. God gave Adam authority and told him to lead and protect His wife, obeying the restrictions on what he could and could not eat (Genesis 1:28; 2:16-17). Yet with his silence Adam forfeited that authority, allowing the devil to infiltrate what God had entrusted to him.
Similarly, our silence today can have far-reaching implications. Whether it’s ignoring or excusing sin, refusing to get involved, or failing to speak God’s truth, silence in critical moments equates to disobedience.
There are times to remain silent and times to speak up and only God can give us that discernment. When faced with the powers of darkness, silence is not an option. God requires us to stand firm in His truth, using our voices to defeat darkness with the light of His Word.
Like Adam, we are called to steward the responsibilities that God has given us. We are made to do what God commands, be His representatives, and reproduce His truth. We cannot shy away from the responsibilities of a child of God.
Ephesians 6:10 says to "be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." His empowers us with His authority when He calls us to speak against evil.
A Call to Action. Are you willing to break your silence and overcome your fears so that you can obey God and stand for truth? Acknowledge those times in your life where you chose silence even though God expected you to speak. Repent and ask Him to help you to be like Jesus, not like Adam, with the courage and wisdom to bring your actions in line with His will.
Take a stand. Use your voice. Fulfill the destiny God has placed on your life. This is not the time to be silent.

How We Know Jesus Is God

How We Know Jesus Is God. It is important to study and understand the words of Jesus, particularly those printed in red in the Bible, because Jesus speaks of His divine authority and oneness with God. He is God. He declared, “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30 KJV), and His words, “If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!” (John 14:7 NLT). They are One. He expressed His perfect obedience to the Father with the statement, “I do always those things that please him” (John 8:29 KJV). This is our potential, in contrast to our human fallibility. Every believer’s life is part of God’s purpose. That fills me with gratitude. The Bible says in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 KJV, “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”
When I read the first and last red-letter words of Jesus in the Gospels, beginning with His interactions with John the Baptist and Satan in Matthew 3, I see Jesus as the Author and Finisher of our faith. We are born again and grow into the image and likeness of God. As Proverbs 4:18 says, “The path of the just is as a shining light that shines more and more unto the perfect day.”
As I see you grow in your personal commitment to Christ and oneness with God. I am grateful for your openness to God’s Word. It motivates me to continue sharing these messages. To me, I'm talking to real people. I feel you and I'm glad about it. I can get emotional over it in my senior years about your heart being open for God and your response to the things that God is leading me to say to you now.

Get Your Affirmation from Heaven

Get Your Affirmation from Heaven. You are called to realign your life with God’s will, just as Jesus demonstrated through His unwavering obedience to God when He began His ministry. At His baptism, Jesus had to correct John the Baptist, who tried to get Jesus to baptize him. Matthew 3:13-15 KJV. “Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.” Jesus held firmly to what God wanted, even though He had to correct John, whom He loved. As a result, Jesus received divine affirmation from Heaven when God declared, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17 KJV). This pivotal moment set the standard for Jesus’ life and ministry, emphasizing the importance of fulfilling all righteousness through complete obedience.Christians are reminded that incomplete obedience is disobedience. Correction, though sometimes resisted, is a necessary part of God’s grace to keep us aligned with His purpose. Whether or not you are called to preach, you are meant to carry God’s revelations into the world. God’s affirmation is available to you today if you seek Him with faith and a willing heart (Hebrews 11:6 KJV).Obedience and righteousness are crucial to receiving God’s affirmation. Reflect on whether areas of your life need correction and surrender completely to His will. Take intentional action, pursue God’s affirmation, and align your heart with His purpose. Like Christ, walk in faith and boldness to fulfill all that God has ordained for your life.

Open Your Portals of Domination

Open Your Portals of Domination.
Everyone inherits the problems of former generations, but when you are born again you have the power to solve them if you open your portals of domination.
The Holy Spirit is calling you to enter the seamless dimension of eternity thinking. You have all you need to open portals of healing, domination, purpose, power, and liberty for this generation through your yieldedness.
Unlock the power within you. Walk boldly in the divine authority of the Godhead over sins of the past. Jesus fulfilled the words of Isaiah 61: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.” (See Luke 4:18-19 KJV.)
Isaiah 58 says that through fasting, prayer, and surrender to God's will, you can defeat the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life (1 John 2:16). I choose to apply that to my health. I choose to dominate my flesh. Jesus said, "I am the Resurrection and the Life” (John 11:25). His life continues through me today.
You have the Godhead working for you. Nobody can defeat Almighty God or the three Persons of the Godhead. That's the realm you're in. You were born into it. You will always be there. Now grow in it.
