Pastor’s are a blessing from God. They are put in place as part of the 5 fold ministry and are meant to help keep you on the straight and narrow path towards God. When someone becomes a christian, they are considered a newborn baby. 1 Peter 2:1-3 states “1Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. 2Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.” My devotional today is to meditate on this word and understand its full capacity.
Lets start with verse 1 where it states to rid yourself of malice. What is malice? By definition, it means to desire to inflict injury, harm, or suffering on another, either because of a hostile impulse or out of deep-seated meanness. Do you desire to hurt someone physically or emotionally? if so, you are acting in malice. What about deceit or hypocrisy? Do you live one way around friends and act another at church? The bible clearly states this behavior is represented by people living in the flesh and of the world. How about envy…do you wish you had something that someone else has? I think we are all guilty of these desires and behaviors. I know I am.
Since we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, we all need forgiveness. However, in order to grow spiritually in God, we need to rid ourselves of these things. This is not something that just happens overnight. We have to practice ridding ourselves of these things in order for God to take us to the next level spiritually.
I am a sports minded individual so lets look at a sports analogy to help clear this up. Lets say I want to become a better basketball player. The season starts in November and ends in April. What I do from April till November is the most important to my success. If I don’t practice during the off season, I can not expect to improve my skills. The same thing goes for Christians. We cant expect to grow if all we do is attend church every Sunday and then put our bible in the car till next Sunday. We need to practice out faith and sharpen our skills to fight off temptation in order to do it successfully. This is done through prayer, meditation, reading of scriptures, and also hanging out with the right people who can aid us in our growth in Christ.
I hope this message speaks to you and gives you some encouragement and insight on how to become more in tune with what God wants for your life. God Bless.

Seattle is known for one thing nation wide, rain. But on July 24, the only rain that was found was the reign of Jesus Christ. Lecrae, Tedashi, Sho Baraka, Trip Lee, and Flame made it known they were not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Rapping to a sold out crowd in Downtown Seattle at Mars Hill Church, the glory of God was made known directly to all who were present, and indirectly to all who were surrounding this church. The annoynting was strong and signs and wonders were realities. DWYL touched many lives forever. Below are a few videos from this glorious night. Check them out!

Everyone knows they should be a nice person; that they love thy neighbors themselves and honor your father and mother. But when it comes to honoring God, they haven’t got a clue. If you think you are honoring God by going to church, well that is indeed honoring God. But do you give back change when you have been given more than you should have received? Do you show up to church late? Do you pick up that wrapper that is on the ground even thought its not yours? The bible says we should be like Jesus. I know He would do all of these things and in order to honor Him, we must also.
I challenge all of you today to go out of your way to do something that will honor God. It may not be something big, but it does not have to be. Remember, God does not care how big or small something is, He cares about your heart and your attitude in doing it. If He can not trust you to do the little things, how can He trust you when it comes time for the big things?
