So i read this little devotional and i was just like Wow, i really liked it. I thought i would share it with you.
Rev. 3:8
I know your [record of] works and what you are doing. See! I have set before you a door wide open which no one is able to shut; I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept MY WORD and guarded MY message and have not renounced or denied MY name.
Devotional
Sometimes the door of opportunity seems to be shut, but God is able to open a door that no one can shut. So standing on the firm foundation of his word, we wait for the doors to be opened that will accomplish His will through our lives. When the door opens the pathway to it, and through it, is always made very clear by God. His promise is to never leave us and His presence, which comforts us, is the hope that strengthens us to endure the waiting.
Don’t wait

Has God put desires inside of you for his kingdom?
Move forward one step at a time.
Take the task He has given you,
Do something today, even if you only write a rhyme.
There are so many ways in this life, to touch the broken hearted.
If our thoughts do not become actions, then we never really get started,
So keep pressing toward those things that God is calling you to.
If you are unsure, here is what you can do
Read your bible, worship, spend a lot of time with Jesus and pray
This is how to begin your best step today.
Hay everyone
This is the last Devo that i’m gonna copy and paste. I just like this one.
To abide in the Lord means to remain connected to him all of the time. We do this by being conscious of the fact that God is always with you. Take a moment to examine your life. Use these questions to help determine if you and the Lord have been staying connected. Would Jesus say the things you have been saying? Would Jesus treat others the way you have treating them? Would Jesus look at the things you have been looking at? Would Jesus listen to the things you have been listening to? Everyday with the Lord is a new beginning; he is forgiving, merciful and kind. When I stay connected to the Lord my life is full of the fruits of the spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, kindness and self control. Being conscious of God’s presence, staying connected to him, will change everything about you.
Prayer: Lord help me to stay connected to you today. Jesus help me to be more aware that my eyes are your eyes, my ears are your ears and that my actions are your actions
1 Corinthians 2:4
My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power
1 Corinthians 2:13
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

I recently met a stranger at a local park where I was taking a walk. With in a few minutes I discovered that this woman was a Christian. After about 10 minutes of talking, suddenly her words began to come alive in me, by the power of God’s Holy Spirit. This lady was saying things that were in perfect relation to what had been happening in my life over the past two weeks. She said things that only God and I knew about. Her words were so right on, that at one point, I wondered if she was an angel. A friend, who was with me, was listening to the stranger speak to me… Then the stranger began to say things that were identical to what my friend and I had just talked about on our walk earlier that morning. This was without a doubt, a demonstration of the Spirits Power. We hugged the stranger with gigantic grins on our faces, what an awesome God we serve. As Christians, that’s the power we need flowing through our lives to win souls for Christ. Jesus said “my sheep know my voice”. We really need to hear God’s voice as we are interacting with others. Obviously this woman was hearing God’s voice as she was speaking to me and I was hearing God’s voice through her words that were filled with the Spirit.
