Think POSITIVELY

Brother Khrystus and Sister Tamoya

Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. (Psalm 27:3 KJV)

On the dawn of this a New Year, let's agree together that WE  WILL  CHANGE  OUR  THINKING. We Will Think Positively!

Many historical accounts record that a person's success and failure in life, many times, had to do with their way of thinking. This New Year's Day 2012, I was more so encouraged during a conversation with a now successful businessperson. He said, "Success comes with determination and positive thinking. Keep going and stay positive and you are bound to make it."

I smiled.

He went on, "Nobody has to be smart Khrystus. They just need to be determined and put ALL their talents to work and they will make it. Many successful people today, were just average people with a spirit of determination. But - they made it."

His words lifted me off the ground and put in me a new desire to surge ahead in 2012.

He continued. "You know Khrystus, I wasn't always rich. I had a hard start. I started out on a mere $200 - $300 salary early in my life. I then decided to give it all up after my wife had agreed and we headed for New Opportunities far away from home with only $500 to our name. I begged shelter many times, but I was determined. I had to deal with the agony of having to care for my wife as she looked at me desperately while we were drowning in debt. We had no children yet.

I sang one chorus, I constantly said, if others can make it and be successful, so can I. I kept knocking on doors. I got turned down many times. My name or company name was not known. I had a bachelors degree, but people didn't care. After knocking and suffering for months, one day, I got a YES - I'll try your services. That one YES turned my family and I into millionaires within three years. After I did that one job, word spread like wild fire." He continued, "And you know Khrystus, I never needed a dime to start my first business. There are businesses you can start with $0 dollars - It's all about your talent."

He closed our conversation by saying, "This year, you'll face some challenges - many challenges. You may possibly be tempted to give up, but always remember my story, Never Stop Knocking. Never Stop Pushing. Keep thinking Positively. One Day, One Day, you will get a YES  ANSWER, just like me that will change your life forever."

I felt like I was soaring with the eagles already. My mind went back to the passage of scripture in Psalm 27:3 which says,  Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

I resolve, this year -

to Never Give Up though challenges come and foes rise up against me.
to not be fearful, knowing that God is well able to deliver.
to always stay confident come what may.

I resolve to rise - Will You Join Me at the start of 2012

Think Positively - There's Hope Ahead!

R-I-S-E

Brother Khrystus and Sister Sanez

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. (Romans 6:14 KJV)

Spread Your Wings and Rise!

I couldn't hold it any longer during the session with that client. I helped the person cry too. I had disobeyed the man made counseling laws that one isn't to cry with a client but remain strong. I had no choice but to hold on to God's instructions in Romans 12:15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

The situation was a tough one indeed. This brought me to reality. I had to conclude that tough business economic times for me couldn't be compared to the situation of the person. At the end of pouring out their heart, I mustered the strength to utter a few words. I said, "Friend - now that you've let it out, it's now time to ask God for forgiveness and RISE."

The faint smile they gave, meant alot to me. It meant that the person recognized that there was still HOPE.

In all my life of ministry, I would have never felt so guilty. Why? You probably ask. This is simply because as preachers and great speakers, many times we look for the next pulpit or public speaking engagement to encourage a large crowd and oft times neglect our duty to do like Jesus when he left the ninety-nine to save the ONE.

I vowed that I had to speak with my pastor soonest for how can I feel comfortable in the pulpit spotlight only SHOUTING out what ought to be done, but not lending an ear to listen, counsel and help.

As preachers, we are ALL guilty of doing that. We preach and expect instant and immediate change and never follow up to listen to our flock. I got angry with myself and determined from that session that I must stand out as a Shepherd, listen to the sheep and do things differently. I couldn't be the common minister like everyone else.

If it meant that I was too busy to ever stand in a pulpit again because I was listening and helping individuals to NOT  GIVE  UP - so let it be.

I became adamant that there MUST be a CHANGE in ME so that I can HELP OTHERS. I must be the ONE to remember the STONE that the builders would have rejected.

There are too many hurting people in our world today covering it all up with a smile. You see them as tellers in the bank or customer service representatives at businesses. You see them as CEOs of companies and as nurses tending wounds. You see them as teachers and may I dare say, there are hurting government ministers, doctors and lawyers too.

They are everywhere. As you read, you probably just said to yourself, "I am ONE brother. I am one."  Too many people are trapped in their mistakes and sorrows of yesterday and just PRETEND that all is well. You can RISE once you put the matter in God's hands TODAY.

Friend, you may never get to sit in my office with me, or take a drive and talk. You may never get to go for lunch with me or hear me at an empowerment session. You may never hear me preach at a service or conduct an open air. All you may ever get access to are my words in this devotional as I know you are reading all around the world from my automatic daily reports. So, let me say what I have to say now.

God Forgives! When you ask Jesus into your heart, the Apostle Paul doesn't water it down when he says that Sin isn't your master anymore. Under the law, you would be condemned and sentenced to death. Stoned by fellow villagers until you were dead. That isn't the case now. You are under grace. God's grace pardons and forgives sin and gives you a NEW  HOPE to live on.

Although all around you, you seem to feel the condemnation of the naysayers, bad-mouthers and others, hold on to this word - For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. Romans 6:14

It's time to brush yourself off! It's time to RISE! You are NOT less than anyone else. As nice as these devotionals may be, I've made my mistakes. I have my flaws. There are things I have to deal with today just like you. But I would NEVER allow them to hold me back - neither should YOU. Jesus will ALWAYS take care.

You are SPECIAL in God's eyes and You Were Born to Make It!

I say it to you just like I would say it in a HOPE  SESSION - Don't Give Up - Hope is Ahead!

If You Can Dream It - You Can Have It ONCE. . .

Brother Khrystus and Sister Shania Burnham

And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey. ( Exodus 3:17 KJV)

And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it. (Numbers 13:27 KJV)

If you can dream it, you can have it once it doesn't fall out of line with God's plan for your life!

I spent some extra than usual time in my bed this morning just dreaming and dreaming and dreaming. I tried not to focus on any past errors of judgement and mistakes. I just let my mind run wild with all of the opportunities available locally, regionally and internationally in life, business, ministry and POLITICS.

I thought about one day having our own Dare 2 Be Different International Jet that would allow our ministry to travel and make an international impact WITH  OUR  TEAM when ever the Lord leads. I thought about why persons kept getting into a business that someone else was into when there are hundreds of other NEW IDEAS out there waiting to be carried out.

I thought about going to pursue my first dream of becoming a medical doctor and majoring in orthopedic, emergency or neurosurgery so when we travel for ministry, we can also do medical missions. I thought about what if I got a surprise scholarship to do this, if I would be ready to go now. I thought about being sworn in as Prime Minister of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis at The Kim Collins Stadium someday.

I dreamt of countries begging us to establish a Dare 2 Be Different International in their land. I dreamt of powerful ministry partnerships that would yield bigger results according to the scripture verse about two putting ten thousand to flight.

Did I dream. After I landed from Flight Dream, I smiled and I said to myself, I have many things in my favour and so do you. I examined some. Do the same for you - examine the many things in your favour too.

I concluded that

1. I am young
2. I have God's Backing
3. I have DOZENS of God's Promises in his Word including that in  Matthew 28:20. . .: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen
4. Nothing should stop me or anyone from going after, not just ONE, but ALL of their dreams.


I was then reminded of another scripture in  Mark 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

I got excited and my spirit raced to part of the story of the children of Israel.

All Moses, Joshua and Caleb had to hold on to was a PROMISE from God that he would take them unto a land flowing with milk and honey. ( Exodus 3:17 KJV)

They clung to that promise and made it their DREAM. This dream didn't come to pass easily. Bible history tells of how much of a hard time they had. Firstly, getting the children of Israel out of bondage was a task. They had to deal with the ungrateful group when they made comments such as, "It's better we had remained in Egypt."

I like all of the leader's spirit though. NOTHING people SAID or DID stopped them from surging on to reach God's Promise and their DREAM. When trials came, they trusted God. When persecution was at its peak, they still trusted God. When wars and rumours of wars were at hand, they let God fight their battles. When they had to fight, they only moved at God's instructions as in the case of Jericho.

They had set in their mind, that once it was God's word, it became their DREAM and they determined that NOTHING would stop them from having it. God's Dream for us is that we would ALL prosper and be in good health. Like Moses, Joshua and Caleb, let's make that our dream too and pursue it.

The book of Numbers bears  record of PROOF, that they really reached their dream of the promised land.  "And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it. (Numbers 13:27)"

Friend, go after your dream or DREAMS. DO  NOT  LET  PEOPLE  DECIDE  WHICH  ONE  OF YOUR  DREAMS  WILL  WORK  FOR  YOU?

Where in God's word states that I cannot be a PREACHER, BUSINESSMAN and POLITICIAN? Have I been ever deterred by the negative gossiping tongues of people? NOT  AT  ALL! See www.theblazingstarmovement.com

Search out your promise land like the Children of Israel. Don’t let anyone or anything stop you. When you fall - GET UP!  Learn from your mistakes when you make them. Climb over your obstacles and keep GOING.

There is HOPE at the gates of your Promised Land. That hope has brothers and sisters called joy, love, rest, fellowship, destiny, security and success that are waiting to cling to you.

Sadly, many of us have built our own personal Walls of Jericho by allowing fear, disappointment, discouragement and regret to prevent us from moving ONWARD and FORWARD. Ask God for forgiveness for your mistakes – your sins and he will FORGIVE. (MAN  WOULD  SAY  THEY  WOULD  FORGIVE  BUT  CHAT  YOU  AND  TRY  TO  TARNISH  YOUR  NAME  BEHIND  YOUR  BACK  AND  SMILE  WITH  YOU  INFRONT  YOUR FACE! BEWARE)

When you ask for forgiveness, GOD immediately breaks down your Destiny Blocking Walls of Jericho that have been keeping you back and launches you into your Promised Land filled with Success and Prosperity.

Stop focusing on your mistakes of yesterday, but keep your eyes focused on your dreams. Always remember, If You Can Dream It - You Can Have It Once it doesn't fall out of line with God's plan for your life.

Hope is Ahead!
