Found all throughout supermarkets, convenient stores, and grocery stores are genetically modified foods. What is genetically modified food? It’s food that has undergone a dna alteration to increase production in order to make more money. What’s wrong with that? First, It’s denying that God made everything good in an attempt to make the food better. Some may say but men make cars and computers. Making cars and computers falls under the category of subduing the earth. Altering food is saying that God does not provide food good enough for you. Check out Genesis 1. Look for more on Don’t eat genetically modified foods — Part 2.

I woke up this morning and received a package with some bad news. I began to think and worry about it a little. I went back to sleep and woke up with a renewed spirit. I encouraged myself. I told myself that God is your provider. I told myself to not to do things of old b/c I have been renewed by the grace of God through faith. I had strength that I never thought I would have had. I encourage every one to seek God for the grace so your minds will be renewed. Here’s the verses for my motivation of encouraging you:
Romans 12:1-2
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Awesome!! So get to asking renewal and remember that you must not waver as the Spirit said through James in James 1:5-6 “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.” Keep in mind Deuteronomy 4:6. Your wisdom and blessing is in obedience. So receive the strength by grace through our Lord Jesus to obey him.
Have a nice day, my renewed brothers and sisters

Why is it that Christians are behind the world in innovation? The bible says in Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginnning of knowledge”. Why is it that Christians (those who have been restored to who they were created to be) are often unwise and unlearned? I believe that Christians seem to believe that logic and reason is contrary to faith. The comprise of many Christians’ faith with evolution has a lot to do with the problem. Instead of establishing their faith on the Holy Bible first, people often tend to base their beliefs on the theories of men. We need to start with the Holy Bible first and live according to every word of God. However many Christians do not have the real word of God. Instead they have a counterfeit bible. The King James Bible is the pure word of God. Before you dismiss that statement, check out avpublications.com .

For a few weeks, I struggled with my finances. I gave up on a fresh food diet that God told me to do for a monnth. I was without joy. I did not take delight in my God. I instead began to worry about what I am supposed to do to resolve my problems. I was careful for all of the things pertaining to this life. I worried about what I would eat although Jesus told me to take no thought for my life (Luke 12). I did not present my requests before God as the Spirit said through Paul in Philippians 4:6. Then I went to eat lunch at Wendy’s with one of my co-workers from Ruby Tuesday. She told me about quitting smoking. I asked her how she felt. She said that she felt terrible for a little while but now that she was glad that she quit. Her reason for quitting was because of a pregnancy. Now she doesn’t want to smoke again. I thought about some things that I needed to quit. After finishing lunch, she gave me a ride home. She told me that she was starting to get back into church because her child deserves it. My heart was moved to start praying more and witnessing to people again. I realized then that I was not design to be selfish. My original design is that of servitude. I encourage you Christians to be bold in the grace of God. You cannot walk as you should without Christ. We must begin to live by his every word (Deut. 8:3). We must begin to praise him more. We must begin to seek his face. It’s time to pursue our Lord with all heart, soul, mind, and strength. It’s time to lift his name higher. Our lives are not about us. We are here to preach the gospel to others. Preaching through our works of charity. It’s time to pursue God with all hearts.
I encourage you to check out the following verses:
Proverbs 2-3
Deuteronomy 4:6
James 1:5
John 6:63
Luke 12
James 4:6
2 Corinthians 12:9
Ephesians 2:8
Titus 2:11-12
May God’s grace and love abound richly in your life,
Rashad Tatum
