"LEADERSHIP DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU ARE IN CONTROL.      LEADERSHIP MEANS THAT YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD IN EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE."    PART III THE HEART OF A CHILD Chapter 11 A CALL TO LEADERSHIP God is calling for those willing to deny themselves, dying to the flesh; desiring to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.      He is offering abundant and eternal life; a changed mind and a renewed spirit.    He is opening up the doors of His Kingdom and raising-up leaders to pour out over the world; leaders who will grow in Christ’s love and holiness; leaders who will be transformed to become like Christ and become Kingdom Leaders. To grow in Christ, is to increase in faith, and to live producing the fruits of the Spirit; transformation that begins inside and spreads to the outside.   Producing disciples, who  are no longer of the world, clinging to worldly things. God is looking for leaders w...

"How we see and accept things, makes all the difference in life. With the heart of a child, we can see with God's eyes."  YCCM PART III THE HEART OF A CHILD  Chapter 9 PAPA My grandfather, whom I dearly loved and who displayed the same affection for me, was a tall and burly man, from the South, having what is politely referred to as, a large girth. He was a giant, in my eyes. He had big strong hands, that you didn't want to have to make contact with, if he threatened to give you a whooping. I will try to give you an accurate and picturesque description of the man I called Papa, so that you may better ascertain Papa's relationship with family, church, religion, law, the world and God. To begin with, I must tell you that my Papa was a drinking man--of whiskey, that is, but, always a hard-working factory man, and a family man, who took care of his family. He took time with his children and grandchildren. One of my favorite things was h...

PART III THE HEART OF A CHILD Chapter  8 TRUSTING GOD TO CHANGE YOU My Brothers and Sisters, This chapter had to be the most difficult for me to write thus far, not only because of the subject matter, but because, God took me very deep within myself and because of this, I wanted to be sure that I was not writing IN self, instead of following the Mind of Christ. Sometimes, old thinking rises up within us and catches us unaware. This was one of those times. It was a deliberate attack of the adversary. The adversary wants us to feel vulnerable, so that we will withhold our testimonies, miracles and deliverances, that could encourage, inspire, comfort, heal and help lead someone to repentance, deliverance and TRANSFORMATION. If the enemy knows God has given us the authority and power to change people, then, why aren't WE convinced? Remember...there is POWER in God's spoken Word! What He puts in YOUR mouth to speak can loose, bind, create, destroy and br...

PART III THE HEART OF A CHILD Chapter 7 A DIFFERENT KIND OF HEART:  JEREMIAH My Brothers and Sisters, As we go deeper and deeper into exploring the heart, as the vehicle to change, we need to understand why our youth today continue to become enveloped by Darkness and at great risk of being destroyed. We need to understand the tactics of the enemy in recruiting them for war, organized crime and helping Darkness to maintain a stronghold over society, through television, movies, music, radio, internet and social media.  We also need to understand how to counteract this demonic warfare intended to destroy us. Our Father has left us detailed instructions on how to resist the enemy and how to cast him out from amongst us. First, we must examine our hearts and learn to trust and obey. In the Book of Jeremiah, God shows us the kind of heart we must have. In choosing Jeremiah, as His prophet, God puts an unexpected opponent...
