Here is this week's Yearly Cycle update.

We are in a time of year for transfers and transitions. If things are shifting right now, then know that God is moving the pieces around to move you to the next level. The key is to keep your eyes up and fixed on him during the transitions. 

It's during this time that God wants to do some miraculous transfers and transition you to the next level. God will often open doors for the next level during this time, and when those doors open make sure to follow your peace on the inside. Peace will help to guide your decision making. A peace that surpasses all understanding.

Here is our filter for this week... Transfers and Transitions

I am praying for you.

Here is today's communion meditation.

Lately we've been talking about James 3:17 which says, " But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere."

Wisdom from above is first of all pure, it purifies our heart, motives, and desires.

And we talked about Revelation 21:21 which says, "The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass."

Purity creates clarity and transparency. 

These verses reminded me of 1 Peter 1:6-7 which says, "In this you rejoice greatly, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith, which is much more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested and purified by fire, may be found to result in [your] praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ."

Going through the fire can purify our faith. Psalm 66:1...

Yesterday we talked about James 3:17 which says, " But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere."

Wisdom from above is first of all pure, it purifies our heart, motives, and desires.

While thinking about this I was reminded of Revelation 21:21 which talks about heaven and says, "The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass."

Purity creates clarity and transparency. The wisdom that comes from above is pure and creates clarity and transparency. 

In today's communion we are asking God for wisdom that comes from above that purifies and creates clarity and transparency

Matthew 6:20-23 says, "But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

And Luke 12:33-35 says, "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 35Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.…"

Tradition says that we store everything up in heaven and we can't touch it until we die. But I think Jesus is trying to teach us to rely on God as our source that will also take care of us here and now. He wants us to know we have an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, and this treasure is in our heart. God pla...

Both James 3:17-18 and 2 Corinthians 9:10 talk about a harvest of righteousness.

James 3:17-18 - But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. 18 And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

2 Corinthians 9:10 - Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.

In today's communion we are asking God to give us wisdom and understanding of what the harvest of righteousness means for us in Christ, and we are asking him to enlarge the harvest of our righteousness.

There are two main qualities I like to focus on with workouts... Mobility and Power. If you focus on these two things you get pretty much every other quality of fitness as a side effect.

Here is today's communion meditation.

The other day I was working on some finishing touches for the new book, "Make Today a Masterpiece," and I forgot to record a yearly cycle update for this week. This time of October is a reminder that we have been released from darkness and transferred into the kingdom of Jesus. If you are going through some transfers or transitions during this season of the year, then rest assured it is God working behind the scenes to move you to the next level of what he's called you to. Sometimes it can be unsettling, but trust that he's working it all together for your good in his perfect timing. 

Colossians 1:9-14 says, "And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 b...

I have a new book coming out soon called Make Today a Masterpiece: How to Walk in the Fullness of the Day the Lord has Made. 

Making Today a Masterpiece, isn't about us trying harder or increasing our effort. It's about taking a different approach where we learn how to rely and trust in God's grace, Spirit, power, righteousness, and all of the good things he put within us in Christ. 

It's learning how to redig the ancient wells of living water he put within us and to see the living water flowing in our lives.

Ephesians 2:10 NLT says, " For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago."

Making today a masterpiece is about walking out the plan already God wrote for our lives. I know not everyone believes that God already has a plan for our day. But I believe we can walk out his plan for today by faith. 

I believe he wrote a book about our life, a...

 There is an interesting verse in Isaiah 55:1-2. It says, " Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare."

I think there are two ways we can buy without cost. One is that someone else pays for you. Jesus paid a high price for us. 

The other way we can buy without cost is if something is more valuable or makes you more money than you pay. In this scenario, you can also buy without cost. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us understand how we buy without cost and to apply this understanding.

Here is today's communion meditation.

We've been talking about the story in 2 Chronicles chapter 1 where Solomon asks God for wisdom and understanding to do what God has called him to do. 

Immediately after this Solomon went by faith to sit on the throne and reign over Israel. Think about this for a moment.. He didn't have any evidence that God was going to give him the wisdom to rule Israel, but he believed what God told him, and he trusted God. He reigned by faith. For us to reign in the assignment that God has given us I believe we must do the same. 

Thinking of these verses reminded me of Romans 5:17 which says, "For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!"

In today's communion we are asking God to help us set this promise in motion.
