Introduction

I have decided and in agreeing with my Father that I am an all or nothing kind of guy. The word that comes to mind is extreme. An extreme personality takes things too far for the rational and the average. We find it hard and even suffocating to fit in and tone it down. We will not follow those who are not even more singular in purpose than we. Our words are cutting and even brutal as we express what moves our heart and the cause that we live for. Our minds focus more intently on the answers and solutions in the cause we uphold. It is a personality trait with divine design. We are driven from the source that we don’t always understand, but we are driven. Tenacity of purpose we possess, and we must stay the course for the greater good. It is within us. We own it, and it is a gift and a curse. We must, I say must, find a way to express our gift or it becomes to us a curse. The curse because we will never be happy with the status quo or just fitting into the group. We are born leaders, visionaries plotting a course beyond the normal. We go past the boundaries of acceptable norms of expectation into the realm of God. We realize what Father says is possible for mankind. What an extreme driving force in life. No longer does the opinion of the masses shape our thinking but what God is holding out for us to attain. We move past the tested areas into those uncharted by man. As God is our North Star, we follow the path where few ever dream of walking.

Foreword

It is a very freeing event when you turn to the Spirit of the Lord. Conforming, or rather, transforming into the image and likeness of God is a liberating event in life. The road less traveled has endless opportunities for advancement and achievement. As others step in step in conforming to each other and the status quo, you, on the other hand, step in step with God Himself in the way he prearranged for you. It is quite transformational to be your own man or woman on your way to his greatness for you. They will always compare themselves among themselves, but that is not wise. You will not compare yourself to others because there is no one like you. Your standard height and goal is limitless and boundless with God Himself pushing the envelope. Is there not a cause, a reason, you need to be extraordinary? To meet the challenges of this generation always takes a spiritual man or woman in God’s image. A remarkable man or woman can do remarkable exploits and bring down the strongholds that limit man’s progress. Men do not even know what progress is. They measure progress among themselves with twister motives. Their way leads to sameness and selfishness, and the greatest example is in the organized American Christian church system. You cannot be controlled by it and expect to be something different than a man pleaser. They have protocols to manage people, to keep their religious systems successful. God has a completely different concept of success for you. Be true to God and be true to yourself.

Religion/Relationship

It’s not virtuous to explain and appease the status quo of religious America. We are not to judge people wrongly or discourage people from God. We are to speak the truth in love so people can grow up into Christ within them. To put your stamp of approval on wrong teaching about Christ is just wrong with no good outcome to it. To do it just because you don’t want persecution from the powers to be is understandable, but wrong also. Gain your acceptance from Father as you expose the futility of man’s religion as in contrast to the power and wisdom of Christ. He will uphold you like he did Paul when the religious leaders tried to destroy his teaching about Christ. Paul’s teaching has the stamp of the Holy Spirit upon it and brings life to all who respect it. 2 Corinthians 13v8: For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. You see Paul had quit trying to please man and gain his approval from man. His aim in life had become to please the one who enlisted him. This is a good teaching and lesson for anyone to embrace today in modern Christianity. There is such a void of this kind of man today in a time when we need them more than ever. No one should be in leadership unless they have made this same commitment deep within themselves. There is too much at stake, too much hanging in the balance. God knows those who belong to Him. Quit trying to impress people and falling all over yourself to please them. Why don’t you try within yourself to impress God? Learn from Him what moves His heart. He is not so far off that He can’t be touched by genuine actions that come from our hearts.

Live this day the very best you can, putting forth an excellent effort from a loyal heart toward God. Seek the best gifts, in that you respect them and nurture them in your life. Rely on Father God today to make a good and powerful impact in your marriage and family. Nothing is impossible for you, and God has placed no limitations upon your success. Aim high and think and dream, even allow your imagination to be empowered by your highest faith. Always go to the source of life, the author and finisher of your faith. Be encouraged because of His great love toward you. Know in your heart that God has got you and is looking out for your best interests. Ephesians 3v20: Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. Get all the fear out, kick it to the curb, and walk forward, energized by your faith in God. Receive the word from the Lord God as He calls you his overcomer. Never walk with the crowd assuming they must be right by their sheer numbers and their consensus. Dare to be different, original, and represent your Father with a sense of honor. Know that he will reward you for your originality and loyalty to Him. Seek the truth above all else, and it will lead you to the wisdom and knowledge hidden from many others. Never settle for less than what your Father has promised you. It is by faith and patience that we inherit the promises. They are great and precious promises, and God is able to come through on His word. Psalm 119:89 forever, O LORD, your word is settled in heaven. God and His word are the same. He is good and reliable to His promise. Hang onto him and receive fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore.

You don’t know anybody like me because I am a new creation. If you want to insult me, just say, I know someone like you, and then turn your attention to them and quit listening to me. If you want to send red flags up in my brain about you, just say, Where did you learn that from and who do you answer to? If you want me to lose respect for you, just promote some leader in your life as having all the answers you need. If you have never listened to the voice of God for yourself, you are missing out on the secret of life. You can know Him and be known by Him, and this is the only salvation you can have in life. If other people are teaching you about God, that is a good thing. Be careful that you don’t just know things about God, and that being through someone else’s experience. You must take the lead for yourself to know Him for yourself. I know for me personally that Father God will have it no other way. There is a real danger in letting leaders be your primary source of knowledge about God. With tithing and being raised in a capitalistic society, there may be ulterior
