Certain people stoke fires within us to be all we can be. When we find them, let us feed on them.Elisha spent many years living in Elija'shadow. He saw it as a Previlege not a count down, he was setting up tents, cook meals, wash clothes and run errands because it meant he would experience first hand some of the greatest miracle in history.As a result Elisha recived a double portion of the spirit that is at work in Elija.Before his life was over Elisha worked twice as many miracles as Elija. We must have a foundation but we can't build it without help.

Have you notice that the busier you get the less you seem to show kindness to others? That is because kindness is a fruit of the Spirit not a product of the flesh. kindness doesn't happen in a vacuum, or as a result of a Sunday morning sermon, you have to practice it. you have to do what Peter says: 'Make effort to show kindness.'

Emotions are an area that many Christians don't understand. Because of this, Believers often allow their emotions to lead them. As a result, emotionally led decisions take them on a course that is out of the will of God for their lives. While God gave every human being emotions, it is critical that we get control over negative emotions and subject them to the word of God.

1 Samuel 16:7
7But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”

Why you do what you do is just as important as what you do. God always looks at your heart and when you have the wrong motives, or motives that aren't based on the love of God,even when you do a seemingly good deed you won't reap the desired harvest from your actions. It is important that you examine your heart before you do or say anything.

Matthew 6:5
Prayer
5“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. Why you do what you do is just as important as what you do. God always looks at your heart and when you have the wrong motives, or motives that aren't based on the love of God,even when you do a seemingly good deed you won't reap the desired harvest from your actions.

Deuteronomy 28:6-8
6You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
6You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
Contrary to what many people believe or have heard through traditional teaching, the blessing is not material item such as a house or car. While these things are the result of the blessing, the are not the blessing itself. The blessing is an empowerment or enablement from God to help you get supernatural result in everything you do. Whether it is on your job, ministry, relationship or gifts that God has endowed you with, when the blessing is in operation, you can't fail! when you speak God's word you release the blessing.
