An Exercise Plan That Works
10 hours 2 min ago | exercise, following God, spiritual growth, stretching
Could you count how many times have you heard the word "exercise" since the beginning of the year? Everybody wants to get busy exercising in January, but their drive starts to fizzle right around February 14th! I am going to be honest here. I don’t like to exercise! I read a quote that said: “If God wanted me to touch my toes, wouldn’t He have put them higher up on my body?” To that I say a big, “Amen!” I see the fitness-minded folks zap by my house. They look real cute in their little jogging suits. They have a sports bottle in one hand, and an Ipod in the other. Sometimes they are even pushing a baby stroller with one knee! Now, that’s just showing off!!

We've Been Lied To
2 days 9 hours ago | apostolic, exposing religion, spiritual gifts, truth
"We value the gift of apostle in the man; we don't value the man. The man is nothing special. He's just 'Old Dave,' a high-school drop-out from a dysfunctional family. We don't value the package; we value the gift that's in the package." This statement is a lie. It's been spoken, taught, and preached in our house for years, and it's a mean-spirited, religious lie. David Coker IS valuable... the person in whom God has placed a gift IS valuable.

How do you know?
1 week 8 hours ago
Sometimes it's hard for you to see if you have changed or matured spiritually even when others can see it almost immediately. There has been times when I thought to myself that God must really be getting tired of me because I never seemed to change or grow in certain areas. I always thought that if I had changed then I would see everything differently. I would start to see some things different but as soon as I acted or responded to something the way I always had in the past then I would say to myself "well I guess you haven't changed after all" and would go back to being my old self.

Worry,what's up with that?
1 week 1 day ago
Worry,anxiety, fear,doubt, unbelief, and the list goes on. It wears lots of labels. It is common to us all.  How we handle these things has a lot to do with our relationship with the Lord. Do we really trust him? How do we know that he will not fail us? Is his word really true for me? Most worry comes by us not having an intimate relationship with our heavenly Father. Maybe it is because our natural fathers let us down. Maybe they weren't always there, or weren't there at all. It could be they didn't support the family as they should have.

An Unlikely Adventure
1 week 2 days ago
Several people I know hate the monotony of life. If I’m being honest, waking up and knowing I have to do exercises each week doesn’t exactly thrill me either. But my mom said something to me this morning as I was working on interview questions that struck me. She simply said, “What if the adventure is right in front of you?” I thought about that and realized how true that is. Lots of times we are so busy complaining about something in our lives that we fail to see what we really have.

Company Is Coming
3 weeks 1 day ago
Recently we got a call from some of our friends saying they would like to come by for a visit. They were coming for the weekend from out of town. We were excited about them coming to see us! My wife and I began to prepare with anticipation. We desired to make their visit a good one. We were going to try our best to see that it was enjoyable and relaxing for them! They were to arrive Friday and stay untill Sunday evening. Thank God my wife is a good planner. I, on the other hand, am a fly by the seat of my pants kind of guy. She got out a piece of paper and began to make lists. She made lists for meals, activities, and of course house cleaning.

It's All In The Attitude
4 weeks 20 hours ago
An attitude of prayer is not prayer. Singing praises is not prayer. Prayer is prayer.  A few months ago, Holy Ghost began to deal with me about this.  As I examined myself, I realized that I was spending plenty of time singing and praising God, but I wasn’t actually spending quality time actually praying.
