Grace and peace be unto you from GOD our FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST .Today I would like to touch on loyalty,and what it means in our relationship to GOD.
The word Loyal- Means to be faithful to a private person to whom fidelity is due. Loyalty- Is the quality,state or an instance of being loyal, and Fidelity- Is the quality or state of being faithful. Synomically speaking, Loyalty and Faithfulness, and Fidelity go hand in hand. Loyalty is to imply a faithfulness that is steadfast in the face of any temptation, and to renounce, desert, and betray that temptation, whatever it may be. Loyalty is Faithfulness. Psams 89; Psalms119; and Deuteronomy7:9 all speak of Gods faithfulness, and the level of our faithfulness. We as Christians, Ambassadors to Christ, Heirs to the Throne, you know Saints; once we have made the decision to accept Jesus Christ as our LORD and Saviour. We should be loyal to serve GOD in all loyalty and faithfulness. We must be found to be faithful towads GOD before we can serve in any capacity towards others. GODS faithfulness should be so deeply rooted within us and reflected out of us that the world will have no choice but to refer to us as "Faithful Christians", instead of just Christians. Being a Christian now days has fallen into a generalized category, according to the worlds beliefs. "They're all the same,why should we become one"? that's what they say of us. Today GOD is calling for those CHOSEN Faithful Christians to come out from among them. Many are called; but, few are chosen! If you are among those few that have been chosen to stand up, and be loyal-faithful to GOD then surrender all to HIM and let his perfect will go forth. Time is winding down. BE BLESSED today, IN THE ALL POWERFUL NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!!!

You Are Favored No More Excuses
Exodus 3:20-22
20. And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof; and after that he will let you go.
21. And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that when ye go, ye shall not go empty.
22. But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
Exodus 12: 31-36
31. And he called for Moses and Aarron by night, and said, Rise up, and get out fourth from among my people. Both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as ye have said.
32. Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye said, and be gone; and bless me also.
33. And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.
34. And the people, took their dough before it was leavened, their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
35. And the children of Isarael did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment.
36. And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.
Now look at this word Favor- An act of kindness, approval; goodwill; friendly regard, partiality; to be lenient or show generous treatment. A thing given or worn as a mork of favor or support a badge or a small present or token given.
Now in this 3rd chapter here God had already called Moses and already told Moses that "Certainly I will be with Thee". God had already told Moses who to tell the children of Israel who sent him, I Am That I Am:
God is calling us to an exodus. When you exit something that means you leave something, some place, or somebody, But God will not have us leave something unless He has something better in place for us. Our job is to have faith in the source and not rely on the resource.
See Moses had already started to make not an exodus but excuses on why he should not be the one. Just like us today God will be calling us to move and we will start making excuses on why we should stay in the same situation we are in. I'm going to church as soon as I get myself together, I don't have any money so I'm not going to church today, I used to go to church but somebody was mean to me so I don't go anymore, and my favorite you all be in church just to long.
21. And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty.
God will not send you empty if you walk in faith believing and trusting him you can't fail. He has already prepared the way.
The problem is that we are not using the favor that God has granted us. We want to keep walking around with our heads hung low singing that same old song woe is me. When God is saying if you would just trust me I will make your ememies give you what you need, If you would just trust me I will comfort you, if you would just trust me I have already paved the way for you, if you would just trust me I will give you rest, If you would just trust me I will give you peace. If you would just trust God....
No more excuses, no more of playing the blame game, no more pity parties just turst and believe. It's time for the devil to have a pity party.
If you don't believe that you are favored why don't you think you haven't gotten what you really deserve? Let me explain I'm a sinner saved by grace had it not been for the Lord who was on my side Oh where would I be?
You know the story they wondered in the wilderness for 40yrs, but they never went hungry, they never went thirsty, they never even wore a hole in their sandal. Why? Because they were favored. Even in all their murmuring and complaining they were still favored.
12th Chapter
36. And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.
Now sometime has passed here and in all the proceeding chapters up to this point all they did was complain not just the children of Israel but their leader Moses as well. See when the storms start to blow in our lives we tend to forget that we are walking in the favor of God we begin to forget all the other storms that He has brought us through. We start to sing that song what have you done for me lately? If we would just remember that we are highly favored and God will take that bad thing and turn it around for our good.
We still have the favor of God will you walk in that favor today or will waddle in the mud. Pick yourself up and walk in the favor of God and make that devil have a pity party of his own.

Let's Have A Drink John 19:28
The Gospel Of John 19:28
28. After this, Jesus knowing that all things, were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
Let us look at the mening of this word thirst. Thirst is a craving brought on by a bodily condition known as dehydration. Dehyration is an abnormal depletion of bodily fluids, and left uncured produces death. Look at the bodily condition of Jesus, not only is our savior badly battered, brusied, and tired, now He is dehydrated on top of all that. "I Thirst," Said Jesus.
They had drug Jesus from judgment hall to judgment hall, where they had beaten the flesh from His back "I Thirst," Said Jesus.
They laid an old rugged cross on His back "I Thirst", Said Jeus. Jesus carried this old rugged cross to a place called Calvary. On His way to Calvary people spat on Him and pulled the hair from His beard. "I Thirst", Said Jesus. We are talking about His bodily condition.
When Jesus got to Calvary they stretched Him on the cross and put nails in His hands and a nail in His feet.
They lifted Jesus up with a crown of thorns pressed down on His head.
Jesus suffered this bodily condition in order to satisfy the craving of our souls.
John 4:14 say But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
Jesus said "I Thirst" because He knew we were sinners and could only be saved by Gods grace.
Jesus Said "I Thirst" because He knew we were messed up from the ground up,
Jesus said " I Thirst" because He knew we couldn't make it on our own.
Jesus said "I Thirst" because He was willing to give His body as a living sacrifice to save our souls.
Jesus said in John 7:37-38 If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Jesus gave up His body to save our souls that we would have to thirst no more. If you are feeling down today have a drink of Jesus and He will make it alright. Call on that matchless name of Jesus and He will make it right. Don't let the troubles of life dehydrate you turn it over to Jesus and He will be your strength and will guide you through.
