We need to be FAT

Hello Everyone,

A woman walked into her bathroom at home. As she did, she saw her husband weighing himself on the bathroom scales, sucking in his stomach. The woman thought to herself, "He thinks that he will weigh less by sucking in his stomach." So, the woman rather sarcastically said to her husband, "That’s not going to help." Her husband said, "Sure it will. It’s the only way I can see the numbers."

Read Psalms 92:13-15 with me again:
13 Those who are planted in the house of the LORD Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing,
15 To declare that the LORD is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
NKJV

Read verse 14with me again: They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing,

Fresh means full of oil or sap it literally means FAT.
Flourishing means green.

Listen carefully to the voice of God this year and receive from Him HE will intervene in a moment’s time.

I believe God is saying to His Church:
“I will pour out my Spirit without measure when I have a people without mixture”.

When we as a people decide to be in this world but not of it, when we truly decide to be a peculiar people I believe God will pour out His Spirit without measure!

Read verse 14 with me one more time: They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing,

If your memories are bigger than your dreams you are in TROUBLE!

They shall still bear fruit in old age;

Paul told us to “forget those things that are behind and press on”

They shall be fresh and flourishing,

Have you ever notice that the person who has never done anything is just sure it can’t be done.

They never make statues of failures.
They shall be fresh and flourishing,

When you are doing all that you can where you have been planted pain is inevitable but misery is optional.

All for Jesus
Phil
