Stanley

In an autobiography I’m reading by Doctor
and Pastor Charles F. Stanley he claims this was one of the most important life lessons that
his grandfather Pastor George Washington Stanley taught him that had a profound
impact on his life.
He says in his book, as a matter of fact, if God told you to
run head first into a brick wall to do it, and to know that God would make a
hole to fit your head through by the time you arrived. What Faith!!
Charles Stanley, if you don’t know him is 86 years old and
has been lead pastor of First Baptist Church in Atlanta, Ga since 1971. His “In
Touch Ministry” over the years has been broadcast in 107 languages around the
globe. Pastor Stanley has had a major impact on local churches and has changed
the lives of millions.
I wanted to share
with you the “Top Five” beliefs that he has incorporated into his life that he
recommends that we do with our lives.
1. The most important thing in your life is your
relationship with God.
2. Obey God and leave all the consequences to him.
3. God will move heaven and earth to reveal His will to you
if you really want to know and do it.
4. God will provide for all your needs.
5. God will protect you.
I’m not sure your beliefs but would encourage you to step
out on faith a little and give the above strategy a try.
2 Chronicles 16:9
The eyes of the Lord
move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose
heart is completely his.
