So I always wondered if people ever wondered about me and the whole fitness component of who I am. I am always tweeting about exercise or posting pics of the gym talking about supplements ect ect…funny thing is people sometimes ask me if I am a trainer or advice for their own fitness goals…truth be told the conviction that drives my health is rooted in healing.

see, both my mom and dad have diabeties, my mom has seizures as well, I have had a couple of them as well. both of my parents take an abundance of medications to help manage areas in their health that they could have controlled had they exercised some discipline in the arena of health.

I believe in the power and ability of the Holy Spirit to Break any and every yoke according to our faith but I also believe that obedience is better than sacrifice and the failure to apply wisdom we obtain in life is a waste of a precious resource that God makes available to us.Hearing my mom coplain about how hard it was to get the weight off in her forties inspired me to not put it on in my 20’s. learning what her poor diet did to her blood pressure, sugar levels and cholestrol motivates me all the more.

I believe living healthy is a part of healing. I can stop the generational curse that we say is inherited by exercising discipline in my life and teaching my children good health habits so they can avoid a sickness that they may be genetically predisposed to fall victim too. its the principle of obedience…

obedience is enforced discipline. it is making yourself do something based on knowledge, not emotions or feelings but cold hard facts.

Now..Suprise…this blog entry is not about health at all but its about the principle of dicipline… follow me

we pray for healing but struggle live a healthy lifestyle. why because being healthy day in day out requires disciplne.

we all want prosperiety but no one wants to exercise stewardship, why??? because that would require disipline in finances, paying bills on time consistently, saving, TITHING…

we want elevation without endurance, success without sowing, prestigue and power without perserverence.

we want covenant without commitment.

there are no shortcuts to the promises of God, however our impatience and inability or unwillingness to do it God’s way causes us to extend the process longer than it should be.

Joseph became the second in command over all of Egypt in his 30’s because he didn’t waste time trying to “make” god’s vision happen his way, instead he just trusted God at a not knowing level, remained faithful and consistent to the principles of God, never tried to circumvent the process and the vision came to pass.

the opposite can be said about moses leading these same people out of equpt generations later with the creation of idols in the wilderness and Moses striking the stone when commanded to speak to it. disobedience extended their time in the wilderness…even worse it disqualified many of them from the blessing.

so once again mi challange you…what area in you life have you been waiting for God to move in and have you been disciplined in that area?

God ordained elevation does not come about as the result of back room handshakes.

Kingdom prosperiety is not the result of any type of illegal activity including cutting corners by purchasing bootleg items or selling them for that matter.

you won’t get your spouse by lifting up your blouse…I’m just saying….

why continue to do what you see others do and fail?? why not be proactive and exercise the principles and wisdom you have been given and excell.. had you been exercising the principles all this time you have been attempting to find a short cut you would be so much closer to you goal or quite possibly surpassed it…principle..try it you may like it…consistency is the number 1 attribute of the successful.. be steadfast unmoveable always abounding in the things of God…

Are there any poker players here? any risk takers or gamblers? Anybody play Texas Hold em?..I love that game …matter of fact I just finished playing a game on my phone and when I finish this Blog I shall probably have another but enough on that.

when playing poker or gambling there is a risk/reward principle at work. your reward is always proportionate to the level of risk you are willing to take. Based upon the cards you’re holding in poker you bet with the hopes that your hand is better than everyone elses. if you hand is iffy you may chose not to bet at all and fold…if your hand is very good you may opt to go all in meaning you put everything you have to bet into the pot with the belief that your hand will be revealed as the best one.

it takes alot of confidence and faith to go all in and sometimes it blows up in your face. sometimes just the idea of a person putting it all on the line is enough to cause the opponentes to re-evaluate their position and withdraw until the next hand, in which case you still win.

why oh why am I telling you all this? I am so gald you read long enough to find out.

Is there anybody who is willing and ready to go all in for the kingdom? now please, before you put on your air of self righteousness allow me to clarify my challange. I am not saying you’re a luke warm Christian living comfortably in sin, asking for forgiveness the morning after and perfectly content with that life style. I am not saying that is you but if it is you, please subscribe to my blog, youtube channel, follow me on twittter and instagram, friend me on facebook, and somehow get me your phone number so we can figure this thing out… I digress…

When I say who wants to go all in for the Kingdom I mean whose putting all on the line day in day out? Who is not compromising priorities but has kingdom work as a top priority and no I don’t mean being on every auxillary at your church but rather BEING the church auxillary in life

If you only usher when you have on your white skirt and stockings, but when your wearing your scrubs and crocks your just as ignorant as you want to be you need to ante up and go all in. If you’re only blessed and highly favored when talking to the saints but you’re ready to slap a jokka when dealing with the “aint’s” you need to ante up and go all in. If you can justify not supporting the ministry that you claim God has called you to be a part of because you’re hair wasn’t done, the game was on, or you decided to go to the movies, ante up and go all in.

I want to Challange any and every Christian that reads this blog to look inside of themselves to see where they have been holding back a portion of the gift, talent, and kingdom resource God has endowed them to be and give all of that back to Him. I beseech you therefore brethren (and sisterin) by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies ( not a portion or a piece of you but all of your body) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God which is your reasonable servive.

Be honest, does he have all of you or does the the consequences of not being politcally correct in the workplace cause you to hedge your wager? do you purposely allow gospel sharing opportunities to go unexplored because it may forever shift peoples opinion of you? or even worse, it will force you to step up to another level of accountability? let go of the carnal thinking and Go all in…its the best thing you can do

unlike playing poker or gambling going all in for the kingdom is like playing with House money.. that means you have nothing to lose and everything to gain, but I take it one step further and say its a SURE THING. Being more than a conquerer means we always win, further more 2 cor: 2:14 tells us God always causes us to triumph so we need not worry about the worlds response to our confidence in Christ or the comfort and and conviction we have in our calling. we can put all the chips on the table,  confident that when the variables that are presently unknown are revealed WE WIN!!!

dont be foolish like annanias and sapphira, hoding back a portion that belong to God.  

The earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof, the world and thay that dwell therein… dumbed down this means it all already belongs to God, He is just waiting on us to embrace that revelation and go all in with Him.

Going all in for the Kingdom causes the Kingdom to go all out for you. Could the reason why you’re not experiencing the open window abundant Jabez enlarging territory good measure pressed down shaken together run and not faint manifestation be because you been playing it “safe” in the kingdom. Don’t you know that safety is a by product of being a kingdom citizen.the Lord is my shepherd…you know the rest…I can go on and on but the bottom line is quit serving God scared like your losing something…that something that you are holding on to is peanuts in comparison to what God is trying to give you…that man or woman , that job, that image, put them all on the line for the Kingdom. Go all in… Let go and let God…

gotta run…the chips are being stacked and the deck is to in my favor..looks like I’m going all in again
