The Lost Relationship The Kingdom Key of Lost & Found

READ | II Corinthians 5:16-21 “For the Son of God came to seek and to save that which was lost

(Luke 19:10).”

We all began as ideas in the mind of God (Psalm 8:4). We are all words spoken out of the mouth of God (John 1:1,14-18). Our genesis is being one with God. When we came to earth and took on human form, we embraced the erroneous idea of separation from God which in essence changed our relationship with God. God was never separate from us, but we saw ourselves separate from God.

God has always been as close as our breath (Deuteronomy 30:14). We have always been connected to God. We are connected to God right here and right now. We will always be connected to God. “Nothing can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:35).” Our spiritual practices keep our connection with God strong. Like cell phone service, without our spiritual practices we can have a poor connection or a weak relationship with God.

Jesus came to show us our oneness with God. “I and the Father are one (John 10:30).” Jesus came to reconcile us back to our original relationship with God. “God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself (II Corinthians 5:16).”

Jesus came to restore us back to our initial state like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden: optimal health, harmonious relationships, and perfect wealth. When we accept Jesus as our Wayshower, all things are reconciled in our lives, and we accept this ministry of reconciliation. We continue the ministry of Jesus by sharing the WORD of reconciliation with all our siblings who have lost their way.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

There’s a Grace on Your Life

  There’s a Grace on Your Life "By grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."    Ephesians 2:8 (KSB)    In Ephesians chapter 2, one word stands out repeatedly: grace . But what is grace? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, His love poured out on us, not based on anything we've done or failed to do. It’s not about what we think or don’t think. It’s simply a gift. A beautiful, divine surprise.  Imagine receiving an unexpected bonus at work, you did your job, and suddenly you're given more than you earned. That’s grace. It comes when you least expect it and fills you with joy and wonder. This is how God extends His grace freely, abundantly, and lovingly.  Throughout Ephesians 2, Paul highlights how grace is woven into our salvation. “By grace you are saved” means you didn’t do it yourself. Salvation is the awakening in your spirit to the truth that  you are God's beloved .   ...
