And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” Isaiah 6:3 (NIV) The whole earth is filled with God’s glory. It’s in all that He has created, so it’s around us everywhere we go. God’s glory doesn’t just apply to church-related, spiritual things. All of God’s creation brings Him glory. Every budding tree, every little hummingbird, every mountain and river…it all brings Him glory. The next time you’re in awe of a beautiful building or a great song, recognize that it can all bring God glory if you have the right focus! If the whole earth is full of His glory, then so are you! When you succeed at something, using the …
Pulled in the direction of your expectations
Have you ever adjusted the focus on a pair of binoculars? You turn the little dial slightly to the left or right until the picture becomes crystal clear. You need to keep your adjustments tiny because if you move the dial dramatically, you’ll never get a clear picture. The same is true when it comes to attitudes. If you attempt to make a huge change in the way you think, it usually only lasts a short while. But if you make little attitude adjustments on a regular basis, over time you develop the kind of winning attitude that can help to take you where you want to go. Great attitudes are attractive. In fact, having a great attitude can take you pretty far in life. …
La Gloria de Dios Cada Día
Y se decían el uno al otro: «Santo, santo, santo es el Señor todopoderoso; toda la tierra está llena de su gloria.» Isaías 6:3 (DHH) La tierra entera está llena de la Gloria de Dios. Está en todo lo que Él ha creado, quiere decir entonces que está a nuestro alrededor, donde quiera que vayamos. La gloria de Dios no aplica únicamente a las cosas relacionadas con la iglesia, a las cosas espirituales. Toda la creación de Dios le trae la gloria a Él. Cada árbol en ciernes, cada pequeño colibrí, cada montaña y río… le trae la gloria a Él. La próxima vez que esté asombrado de un hermoso edificio o una gran canción, reconozca que todo esto puede traer la gloria a …
What kind of conqueror?
But He turned and rebuked them, and said, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of. For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them.” Luke 9:55–56 (NKJV) God has made us more than conquers (Romans 8:37). This means we have the power to conquer in every area of our lives. However, we need to understand what kind of conquerors we are. We are not empowered to dominate or control others. You see, there is a big difference between power and force. Some leaders force people to follow them through control and manipulation. But Jesus wasn’t that kind of leader. He didn’t overthrow those who came against Him, and yet you’ll never find someone more filled with power. In …
¿Cuál Clase de Vencedor?
Pero Jesús se volvió y los reprendió. Luego se fueron a otra aldea. Lucas 9:55–56 (DHH) Dios nos ha hecho más que vencedores (Romanos 8:37). Esto significa que tenemos el poder de vencer en cada área de nuestras vidas. Sin embargo, necesitamos entender qué clase de vencedores somos. No somos empoderados para dominar o controlar a otros. Fíjese, hay una gran diferencia entre poder y fuerza. Algunos líderes fuerzan a la gente a seguirlos a través del control y la manipulación. Pero Jesús no fue esa clase de líder. El no derribó a aquellos que vinieron en contra de Él, y aun así, usted nunca encontrará a nadie más lleno de poder. En Lucas 9, Jesús se disponía a salir hacia a Jerusalén. …
