It is important to pay attention to blessing. To live in a way that positions our life to receive from the Lord. We must concentrate on who Jesus is for us and know exactly what it means to be in Christ. Focus will always bring forth truth and power to bear on our circumstances. Focus… Continue reading Focus increases favor

We are deluding ourselves when we focus on what is wrong
Focus must always empower. It captures our heart and claims our attention. Focus has no preference of its own. It is given to us by the inclination of our heart. No one’s born a pessimist. We learn it in the setting of our childhood and from the people who influence us the most. It is… Continue reading We are deluding ourselves when we focus on what is wrong
Do not blur your focus
Spiritual warriors require outstanding focus. The enemy wants nothing more than to break our concentration on the things of God. He knows that basking in the light of God’s nature grows us stronger every day, and the enemy wants to put a stop to it. We must focus on our God-given assignment, pouring our time,… Continue reading Do not blur your focus
Pay attention to the wonder of it all
It’s possible to go through life and never touch as much as the Lord would desire you too. Our spiritual perceptions can be measured in fragments of time and experience. If God never leaves us nor forsakes us, then he is always present. You owe it to yourself to be more aware of his position… Continue reading Pay attention to the wonder of it all
Passion creates focus
Passion (a compelling, a powerful emotion of love and delight) never allows you to see yourself as a failure. Everything is useful in our development. Mistakes, humiliations, defeats and obstacles are as valuable as success, achievement, victory and breakthrough. Passion wastes nothing. Passion always learns and always overcomes. Passion is belief in action. What if… Continue reading Passion creates focus
Focus provides high definition
It should not matter how much the enemy spins us around in life situations. Christ is the center of who we are, which means we have a fixed point to which we always return. The Holy Spirit will always make Jesus our focal point for response. In Christ, the enemy is never allowed to determine… Continue reading Focus provides high definition
Don’t look where you are going
In order to fully understand the Beatitudes, you must understand the writings of John. John constantly talks about spiritual perception. He makes it very simple: there are those who see God, and those who do not see God. Of course, he is talking in mystical terms, but it becomes clear when you read Matthew 5:8:… Continue reading Don’t look where you are going
Hanging on or hung up
We all have times when we need our focus directed back to the Lord. We are creatures cursed with the Adamic curse of a tendency toward distraction. This Adamic nature, with its tendency toward distraction, makes it difficult even for those who desire to walk with God. Though they may have a Word from God… Continue reading Hanging on or hung up
We hope and focus without wavering
What is the real basis of the persecution against what God is doing in the earth today? Why does the religious world frequently classify us as a cult? Why do they accuse us of believing only in direct revelation and not in the Scriptures, when nothing could be further from the truth? Why is our… Continue reading We hope and focus without wavering
Faith is focused
Thank God for the whole Scripture, our wonderful Holy Bible. But if we have true faith, we may need only one verse of it all. One verse could change the world. It is when we penetrate into the deep meaning of a Scripture that we finally have detonated its divine power. We can look at… Continue reading Faith is focused
Focus! Focus! Focus!
Several prophecies are in the third chapter of Malachi. It begins with the prophecy about John the Baptist (which was fulfilled in his ministry) and continues with a number of precious prophecies about the Lord. However, we are concerned with Malachi 3:7–12, in which the Lord tells us, “From the days of your fathers you… Continue reading Focus! Focus! Focus!
Seek the king
Hosea 6:3 says, “So let us know, let us press on to know the Lord. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; and He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.” The charge that God brought against Ephraim and Judah is in Hosea 5:15: … until… Continue reading Seek the king
An exhortation on distractions
Whenever we start a project and really exert ourselves faithfully to it, we come out all right. But how many projects have we begun and discarded? It is that little trait we have of becoming distracted that we must correct. If we could overcome it, we could up the effectiveness of our prayers and our… Continue reading An exhortation on distractions
Our focus increases our intimacy with the Lord
We are in the time of the Parousia (the presence of the Lord); and just as He walked in the midst of the people of Jerusalem in His day without their recognizing Him, you too may not be able to recognize him. He can move in your midst without your seeing Him, or even knowing… Continue reading Our focus increases our intimacy with the Lord
Focus
What was it like when the Lord Jesus Christ made His appearance in the middle of the Feast of Passover? The Holy Land, Palestine, was small; Mount Zion was a hill less than two-thousand feet elevation and Jerusalem itself was not an impressive city; but whenever one of the Feasts came, it was quite a… Continue reading Focus
Focusing on the Lord
No worship or praise to the Lord is ever wasted; however, when a service does not have clear-cut guidance, then everyone is going in his own direction, and that is a sure guarantee that nothing will happen in the service. Every minute should count. Every moment should be effective in going some place in the… Continue reading Focusing on the Lord
The focus that brings peace
When you prophesy against the circumstances that are the evidence of futility, you are effective to some extent; but the real place where futility is conquered is in your spirit. The victory over futility starts with the sons of God and goes forth from them. God has always spoken a word which is deceptive in… Continue reading The focus that brings peace
Our Focus
In order to walk with the Lord in victory, it is always important to remember where to focus your consciousness. A person in great pain can go to a hypnotherapist and be put under hypnosis so that the pain can be borne or completely forgotten. Persons with terminal cases of cancer in extreme pain, can,… Continue reading Our Focus
Focus,focus
Everything we receive from God depends upon our focus. Jesus has made a perfect provision for us, and the Holy Spirit was given to us to help us receive it. We have to focus on a promise of God, until we receive it as a revelation in our spirit. We have to meditate upon it… Continue reading Focus,focus
