Consultant


 

 

Good Morning,

 

As you start your day I would like to give you something to think about and evaluate about yourself. Many times in life we tend to just make decisions on our own once we achieve that I’m grown mindset. I would like to pose a question to you today, “Who is your consultant?” We pay hundreds and even thousands of dollars to have a consultant in certain areas of life. However there is truly only one consultant for life and that’s our heavenly father whose an all in one type of consultant. We must fully rely on and trust God in every aspect of our lives. As stated in Proverbs 3:6 which reads “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Only God can give us clear precise instructions and direction for the will or our lives. In personal relationship we must consult God to make sure we have the mate God has provided for us. We must consult him to guide us financially, spiritually, and every aspect of life. Before I make a decision to even work overtime I pray and ask God for his approval. You may be reading this like really, that’s a little overboard right? What you must understand is we should never want to be anywhere but where God has required us to be. For someone else sake you could be the delivery of a message/gift or the receiver of a message/gift. Even the feelings that may come over you sometimes always consult God and make sure it is him. The enemy is so crafty at his job and often will use distraction and distortion heavily to get us off track. The enemy will make something seem one way and in reality it’s just a mirage. We find ourselves in situations that are hard to deal with or get out of because we didn’t seek the advice of your Consultant (God). Every aspect of your life requires God’s approval so that you can navigate through life as smoothly as possible. Never rely on yourself as stated in the first part of Proverbs 3:7 “Be not wise in thine own eyes:” God has planned your entire life so submit to his will and seek his counsel. As you involve God in your life you will find that doors will be opened, people will be moved to do things on your behalf, and life just becomes so much easier. Don’t focus on what you think you are giving up but embrace the love, protection, warnings, and all that come with the awesome God we serve. There is nothing a like the peace you will feel when you know that you’re headed towards your destiny. Your natural mind says to be independent but your spirit teaches dependency mindset only on God. Whichever mindset you are operating in is a direct reflection of whose operating you!!!!!! Consulting God shows trust, respect, and a willing desire to walk in purpose for which God has designed you.

 

 

You can examine your relationship with God by reflecting on your commitment to consult God. ~d.taylor

Due Time


 

 

Good Afternoon,

 

I apologize for the delay since the last message but I like to allow God to really place on my heart what needs to be relayed in these messages. I pray you have stayed encouraged in God. The title of this message came from a personal experience with God and what he began to minister to my spirit. As God has move mightily through IAMDFS this year by opening so many doors. That’s exactly why I’m writing this message because as God opens doors we must know that all things came in due time. Due time doesn’t mean you aren’t deserving of the blessing, but instead means he will deliver at the most suitable time.  Some of the very things you may have sought the Lord about he is ready to bless you with and is probably preparing you to walk through those doors as we speak. However we must make sure we are in the right position to receive God’s blessing and walk humbly through those doors. It is wonderful to experience the greatness of God as he moves on our behalf helping us get closer to accomplishing our dreams (purpose). As a my brother Christopher (Cash) Washington would say, “We must never allow ourselves or ambition to get ahead of God.” What I’m saying is the very thing we find ourselves getting anxious about happening in our lives will happen in its proper time. We most always remain aware of the God we serve and consciously know he owns everything. We must exercise the power of prayer by consulting (constantly) him on opportunities and all areas of our lives to first get his approval and secondly to allow God to open those doors. We must develop a divine patience and move as God moves us to do so. For the platform you wanted to us a particular opportunity, God will use it for a much bigger outlet then you can even imagine. A door that we may open once to walk through, God will make it a revolving door for us in accordance for his purpose and glory. When you constantly consult God it demonstrates our humility and respect of who God is in our lives. Trust and know that in due time God will deliver if he sees fit and at the most suitable time. 1 Peter 5:6 reads, “Humble yourselves therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you in due time.”

 

 

Quote: Never spend too much time and energy figuring out how to get in and when God has already appointed your entrance. Be patient all things happen in due time.

Speak


Speak

 

Good Afternoon,

 

It’s a pleasure and a blessing to speak with you again. This message has been in my spirit to write for a while now and I’m glad to finally have a chance to share it with you. Many times in this day and age we don’t realize how the things we watch, listen, and repeat are influencing our lives. Proverbs 18:21 states, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Many times the media influences our dialect. We verbally repeat our favorite song and are often oblivious to the life or death we are speaking into our lives by repeating what hear or see. Entertainment has become such a manipulative tool for the enemy because we are blinded to how he uses it to his advantage. We have to become wiser in our choice of words and what we repeat. The bible states, “He that hath knowledge spareth his words:  a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit. Your words are an activating force that moves things in your life. Great caution and emphasis must be placed on the wise usage of words, so that we don’t give the enemy room to navigate in our lives due to our lack of knowledge or careless actions. Every moment doesn’t warrant a response, but it’s often better to remain silent in certain moments. Every word you speak releases something in your life for which you will be held accountable for according to Matthew 12: 36-37. Remember how you reference yourself & others; what you repeat, and whatever you may decide to speak will always affect your life.

Remember Me


Remember Me

Inspired by Sarah A. Taylor

 

I’m a very big advocate of leaving a legacy. It’s amazing how God can turn a heart breaking moment into a life elevating moment. As my mother left this world to hold her place in heaven. Holy Spirit began to minister to me. I watched her as she prayed relentlessly and sought God in the midst of all she was going thru. I found it outstanding that she never took her eyes off him and her faith was elevated in him. Many times we make excuses about why we can’t give God our best. I came to tell you if only we could demonstrate the faith my mother had what a world of difference we could make today. What we must understand is we have to be an example at all times in our lives as we walk with God. We can’t justify short comings, we can’t indulge in things just because we are allowed grace, we can’t neglect people for personal fame & gain, and we can’t play with the world while making kingdom claims. The latter part of 1 Timothy 4:12 reads, “be thou an example of the believers in word, in converstation, in spirit, in faith, in purity. In order to reach this generation and go in hand to hand combat with the enemy we must give God our best. Your converstation of the kingdom should proceed you, Holy Spirit should lead you, your faith should never leave you, and your heart & body should be pure within you. There will come a day when we all will have an account to settle but what will your example say? Will you be an example in the storm as well as the sunshine? Let’s give God our best!!! Let’s prepare for some real kingdom building!!! Whatever you have to do to let go of so that you can stand in the threshold as an example of the Believers then be bold and encouraged to do so for he is with you. The reward of a real believer and the footsteps of a real example don’t come be easy because the price is great but the rewards are plentiful.

Preparation, Planning, and Execution



Good Evening,

It’s my pleasure to speak with you all once again. I tell you I do truly believe this message will be a breakthrough for a lot of you out there. As the New Year began our IAMDRIVENFORSUCCESS group was in high anticipation for the things that would be happening this year. I must say so far it has been wide open but the reason for this message is the process of preparation, planning, and executing. Have you ever had an idea, dream, or goal you set for yourself? Were you ready to get started and accomplish it?  I have ideas from both positive events to business ideas but as I prayed I found myself wondering if I was sitting still too long. When was the green light to go going to come? God answered me and said, “When you see me moving then it’s time for you to move”. Before any movement can take place you have to make sure you’ve endured the process in the correct way. Never plan to prepare if that makes sense to you. What I’m saying is always have be in a state of preparation because this exemplifies that you’re expecting something and ready to receive it. The next stage is planning which we often plan in our efforts to prepare. Now that I’m a little wiser in my ways I’ve realized that my state of planning is to execute. When planning is on the table execution should be taking place shortly after. The plan is God’s will anyway (Psalms 37:23) so your only obligation to planning is to execute. Once you have completed these two steps then the last one is very easy and that is execution. Execution does have some factors that are meaningful such as time, place, and most importantly the right time to execute your mission. Just remember God’s order and will is always superior but carrying the correct process is upon us.

ADVANCEMENT

 

Good Evening,

 

It’s my pleasure to speak with you again this week. Life has been very busy lately so I had to make the time to write this message to you. However, as always, I promise to leave you with something to think about in this message!! Let me start by asking you a question, when was the last time you invested in yourself in a positive way? I don’t mean as in purchasing something that makes you look good or feel better personally, but when have you invested in putting yourself in an environment to help you grow as a person. What we must begin to understand is the where we invest our time will dictate our arrival time. Arrival Time? Yes, your arrival time to your purpose in life and reaching your destiny. So many times we are quick to go hit the club, local party, and spend time engaging in activities that aren’t productive to developing who we are as individuals. The truth is making this investment is the most important thing you will ever do. There is no way you can receive or embrace who you are and what God has in store for you without spending the necessary time developing yourself. In order to advance in this life it’s crucial that you find the proper teachings to elevate your understanding of life. Your understanding along with application is directly proportional to propelling yourself in to the life you were destined to live. There are certain people in life you are meant to cross paths with just for the knowledge God has given them to share with you. However, if you fail never show up for the session because you’re too busy entertaining other things in life then if you never advance it’s your own fault. We don’t have time to play around in this day and age because everyday decision releases either advancement or delay. Which are you experiencing in your life at this point? Class is already in session and your education (God’s Teachings) is required so are you willing to sacrifice it for worldly satisfaction? I remember hearing my pastor say, “You can only flourish where God assigned you to be!” The question is, are you sinking, swimming, or flourishing? Only you can answer that question but whatever your answer may be just know that a skilled is required to become an asset.

Boxed In


Boxed In

 

Good Morning,

 

How are you guys doing? I know it has been a while since I wrote a message to you, but we do such powerful calls on Sunday nights so I wanted to switch it up for you guys. However I’m excited to write for you guys again and I pray it helps someone. Many times we get so caught up in our goals and what we want for our lives that we begin to box ourselves into a mold we may never fit. In reality what we are doing is boxing ourselves in and limiting ourselves to our plans instead of embracing God’s plan.  In Jeremiah 29:11 it reads, “ For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” We have to be wise in the things we seek to do and begin to consult God on what he will have us to do and align ourselves with those plans. As bad as you may want to accomplish what you decided to do one must understand that God knows the desires of your heart and his plan will fulfill his purpose while also fulfilling your desires. His word states in Matthew 6:33 “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” Often we get convinced that in order to do certain things our way is the best way, but this is the trick of the enemy. There is absolutely no way that you can cut corners because God will always be in charge. We cause ourselves so much stress, heartache, and disappointment simply because we won’t submit our talents and lives to his purpose for our lives. Let me be the first to tell you I’m one of the most versatile and ambitious men you will ever meet but what God has done in my life has amazed me. I have seen is glory in the works he has given myself and those around me to do. I have witnessed his glory in prophecy! I have witnessed his glory in healing! I have witnessed his glory in love! I have witnessed his execution in kingdom business! I have seen him bring faith and hope! I have seen the fruits of the spirit encourage, inspire, uplift, and direct the lives of others. It’s a life of total fulfillment and in return his reward has far exceeded the expectations of what my mind can even begin to imagine. Today is your day to begin a new mind and a new life. A life of endless possibilities and without limits so as you read this message stop boxing yourself and God by the plans you have set for yourself. God isn’t into conflict of interest so he will not touch things until you take your hands off things. He is a God of order and simplicity. Please understand your life is a script that has been written years before you ever made the scene in this world. However you have a choice either you can live outside the script and stumble through life or you can live and become your script to live a life that only God can direct.

 

 

 

Quote: My amazement isn’t in the things of the world, but it lies in the works of God’s hands in my life. Never box yourself into a mold because the reality is you will only fit one and that’s God’s mold. ~d.taylor
