Christian; To Be Christ Like

CHRIST LIKE

   
 When someone says, "I'm a Christian." My first inclination has always been skepticism. Growing up it always seems the folks that pronounced it always ended up doing something completely opposite of what I thought a Christian should be, act like, or do. To this day, my flags still go up when I hear, "I'm a Christian." I am a believer in the fruits that you bear, not the words that you say, are living proof to your faith in Christ. We simply have to be a Christian, not say it, just do it.

Roman 15:5
For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ...

    I have been weary of those that call themselves a Christian, which means to be like Christ, but even more so when someone who calls themself family, dear friend, or sister in Christ, and their actions are anything but Christ like. Sure, we all fail or can be spiritually immature at times and so far from Christ, that we might question our own walk. 
    Thank God for GREAT GRACE daily, because without it we would all be screwed. But when a close person who calls him or herself Christ-like, consistently shows you they are anything but, it may be time for you to brush your sandals off.



Lets visit how the message reads, Romans 15:3-6

That’s exactly what Jesus did. He didn’t make it easy for himself by avoiding people’s troubles, but waded right in and helped out. “I took on the troubles of the troubled,” is the way Scripture puts it. Even if it was written in Scripture long ago, you can be sure it’s written for us. God wants the combination of his steady, constant calling and warm, personal counsel in Scripture to come to characterize us, keeping us alert for whatever he will do next. May our dependably steady and warmly personal God develop maturity in you so that you get along with each other as well as Jesus gets along with us all. Then we’ll be a choir—not our voices only, but our very lives singing in harmony in a stunning anthem to the God and Father of our Master Jesus!

    We are to live in harmony. Not one voice, but voices together as a choir. Walking through each others trials and victories with one another, praying for one another, walking in maturity with Him and each other daily. Not hurting one another or pretending to a true friend and slandering one another or causing strife.
    What if someone you were doing life with, suddenly stopped being part of the choir? What if all the things that you walked through together, this person began to use against you and break the intimate trust and faith walk? It can be difficult enough to open your heart in the first place, but once you do and you form a bond or an intimate relationship, these things can deeply wound.

    God says to ask. To seek. To knock. And He will answer. I beckon you to spend some time with the Lord and ask, who you are to do life with. Your inner circle is vitality important and needs to be protected. Sometimes people come as wolves in sheep's clothing. Seeming to be your friend, or worst a "brother or sister in Christ." Look at their fruits not their speech. What do their actions tell you? Most importantly what does God tells us to do.

    Be kind to them, pray for them, but if they don't receive you, bless them, brush off your sandals and continue on your way.

    People hurt, God never will. No matter what, you stay the course and continue to be like Christ. You will never have to utter the words, "I am a Christian." Your fruit and actions will say it all.

In Him

His {GRACE} is like an Avalanche!


Life can be overwhelming, we have pressures on all sides. 
May I encourage you to be still, bask in His presence, and allow His overwhelming grace to wash over you! 
When was the last time you felt His grace like an avalanche?……In Him, Michelle
Allow His Grace to wash over you

YOGAFAITH & the Daniel Fast

SEE I AM ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING BRAND NEW, 
DO YOU NOT SEE IT? DO NOT MISS IT! (IS. 43:19)

How are we to receive anything new if we don't first get rid of the old?
How can God speak to us if we cannot hear? How could we possibly hear anything He is trying to say to us if our world is so loud and cluttered?

    Every year my  husband and I join in with thousands around the globe to partake on a life changing journey. We set aside 21 days, not to starve, but to feed our soul, strengthen our spirit, renew our bodies, and hear from the Lord.
    We cast our vision, writing it down and making it clear. It's important to get specific why we are fasting. What are our motives for fasting? What circumstances do we need a move of God?

     Last year YOGAFAITH and many other things was birthed during and after the Daniel Fast. This year I am excited for what the Lord is going to speak concerning our lives and new dreams.

Things that are important during this time:

-Set aside daily prayer, devotional, and/or journal time. Write what you need, or what you are hearing.
-Drink plenty of water, only water for a true Daniel fast.
-The first 3 days are the most difficult. Your body is detoxing and you may be tired, get a headache, or be irritable as your body is craving the sugar and chemicals it may have been receiving for so long.

-Even though we are eating, and here I will post tasty recipes, we are still fasting. It's important to not get full of give in to your taste buds.
-The sacrifice is always worth it.
-You may extend your fast to 40 days. Jesus fasted 40 days to gain back dominion and establish His power.
-Your entire being is being cleansed, renewed, and detoxed. This is not always a comfortable experience. 


Fasting without prayer and meditation is just dieting. If it doesn't mean anything to you, it will not mean anything to God. The fast is for us not Him. Not to prove we are awesome Christians or to let God know we are "His special chosen disciple," it is to draw closer and allow God to be the center of everything in all our lives. What has began to take His place? The time you once spent with Him? Do you love Him like when you first encountered Him? This is a time to set aside as many distractions as possible. Fasting is going without food for spiritual reasons. You may also choose to fast programs or movies that your spirit shouldn't be absorbing, or social media that takes up time you could be spending with family or in prayer or reading the Word. Consult with the Holy Spirit if you have any questions. He will always guide you if you ask.

However, you may want to implement the Daniel Diet forever.

-Prepare your kitchen and pantry by ridding them of sugar, white stuff altogether, alcohol, chips, etc.
-Replace them with Vegetables & Fruit. (Frozen, fresh, canned, dried, etc.)
-Rice, Almond, or Unsweetened Soy milk
-Rolled Oats, Whole wheat, you may have whole wheat unleavened bread, Muesli, Oat bran, All beans, legumes, nuts, fresh and dried spice. 
-No sugar, animals, (including dairy products) alcohol, sweeteners (including honey, stevia, agave nectar, sugar cane etc.) No white flour, rice, pasta.
-Basically the Daniel diet is a vegan diet so you may find vegan recipes that are sugar free for eating

Be blessed during this time!
