Being Matters More than Doing by Robert Ricciardelli
God wants our being more than our doing. Our being in Him matters most. He is always in us, but are we consciously in Him? Do we seek Him, His Kingdom, and His nature? We want to make a difference, and yet often miss our Creator who is ever calling us towards Himself. Consciously transition to time with God by listening, responding, and resting in Him while we advance. Doing powerfully flows from our being.

He Needs More of Us by Robert Ricciardelli
The Kingdom of God is within. We do not need more of Him as He has given us everything we need. People chase power, prestige, and prosperity in the name of God and find themselves wanting. The transformational manifestation of God in us has been trapped in the prison of our hearts and minds. We are the only God people may ever see, and He desires to use us so much. We do not need more of Him, He needs more of us.

X-Out the Negatives From Your Life by Robert Ricciardelli
It is time to X-Out the negatives that hinder perspectives, production, and success. Take courage to search out and admit to the weak spots in your life. We all have them, and many times we mask them, because it is too painful to take a peek under the hood of our mind, will, and emotions. Be encouraged as you identify the soft spots, you will now be empowered to begin to eliminate the destiny barriers from your life.

God is Talking All the Time by Robert Ricciardelli
God is talking to you all the time. Are you listening? Do you expect Him to put passion and thoughts into your heart and mind? He is the author of amazing creativity and passion, and has deposited expressive brilliance within you. Sometimes we take ownership of all of our thoughts and passions. I once asked the Lord to support an idea I had. He said, “I love that idea, I will support it, and by the way, that idea was mine.”

Be Ready to Realign Rigorously by Robert Ricciardelli
Be ready For Divine interruptions to your plans. Many are the plans of men but God’s plans prevail. This is a generation of time when God is shaking all that can be shaken so that all that remains is His unshakable Kingdom and His unshakable principles. In His love and providence, God does this without your permission. Be ready to realign rigorously to God’s plans with joy, because His plans work best for you.

Commitment Propels Dynamic Living by Robert Ricciardelli
You are the offspring of God. He has created you in His image to existentially co-create with Him. Initiated through faith, it is commitment that propels our life dynamically forward. When we commit ourselves, Divine providence empowers all ideas and plans. Commitment births favor and a whole stream of unforeseen incidents, meetings, and provision. Suddenly the unseen bursts onto the scene in Majestic glory.
