Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: Intregrity

What You Are Is As Important As What You Do
By Patricia Fripp
It was a sunny Saturday afternoon in Oklahoma City. My friend and proud father Bobby Lewis was taking his two little boys to play miniature golf. He walked up to the fellow at the ticket counter and said, "How much is it to get in?"
The young man replied, "$3.00 for you and $3.00 for any kid who is older than six. We let them in free if they are six or younger. How old are they?"
Bobby replied, "The lawyer's three and the doctor is seven, so I guess I owe you $6.00."
The man at the ticket counter said, "Hey, Mister, did you just win the lottery or something? You could have saved yourself three bucks. You could have told me that the older one was six; I wouldn't have known the difference." Bobby replied, "Yes, that may be true, but the kids would have known the difference."
As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "Who you are speaks so loudly I can't hear what you're saying." In challenging times when ethics are more important than ever before, make sure you set a good example for everyone you work and live with.

Post from Pastor Oliver

The doctors said I need to make a choice today, after my daughter was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery...which life are we fighting for "YOUR DAUGHTER OR THE BABY?" I calmly told them with the holy ghost as my witness, I chose Jesus. My daughter is relaxing. The baby is resting (few problems), and the devil is raging. I CALL HIM JEHOVAH!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!!

2010
ALERT! Deleting several folks that happen to be on my friend list. The bible says "How can two walk together except they agree". I don't agree with what some of you represent, the language you use, or the company you keep. In this sesason I will not be attached to; infectious agents, foolishness, gossipers, etc. You must be willing to come out, go up, then rock steady! That means don't lose your balance. Respect God.

Just to encourage the family, God will do everything he has promised in just a few days. Right before the release, the enemy will try to reverse what God has spoken into your life. You must understand the process is great but God is Greater and will not allow you to be ashamed before the enemy. Patiently Waiting and Watching, Expecting and Excepting God's next move. Be Blessed.

Good morning, everybody just blessing God for another day off abd a day that was promised to the righteous. Just to encourage FB family when you are tempted to take shortcuts you could be short cutting your destiny. You must understand that God has designed a plan for us and unless he changes his mind we must ask for strength in our place of assignment. Be one day or two years. Because after this.......! Amen

Understands that adversity births strength. Strength allows you to push past the present to get to the promise even when it gets uncomfortable. If you can stand the pulling God will pull you through!

God has a word for today. I hear God saying "Prepare Your Mind". Some of God's most effective servants were those who disciplined their minds for his service. Do not allow others to do your spiritual thinking for you. God has equipped you with what you need to guard your mind. Paul said there was a time when his thinking was immature but he prepared his mind to understand the truths of God.

Understands that after you have searched for a way out and find none, look again it may be that it does not look like what you expected. Oh! You're not crazy. God had to create a way of escape.

Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: THE PACK OF BISCUITS

THE PACK OF BISCUITS
        One night there was a woman at the airport who had to wait for several hours before catching her next flight. While she waited she bought a book and a pack of biscuits to spend the time. She looked for a place to sit and waited. She was deep into her book, when suddenly she realized that there was a young man sitting next to her who was stretching his hand, with no concern whatsoever, and grabbing the pack of cookies lying between them. He started to eat them one by one.

Not wanting to make a fuss about it she decided to ignore him. The woman, slightly bothered, ate the cookies and watched the clock, while the young and shameless thief of biscuits was also finishing them. The woman started to get really angry at this point and thought, "If I wasn't such a good and educated person, I would have given this daring man a black eye by now." Every time she ate a biscuit, he had one too. The dialogue between their eyes continued and when only one biscuit was left, she wondered what was he going to do.
Softly and with a nervous smile, the young man grabbed the last biscuit and broke it in two. He offered one half to the woman while he ate the other half. Briskly she took the biscuit and thought, "What an insolent man! How uneducated! He didn't even thank me!" She had never met anybody so fresh and sighed relieved to hear her flight announced. She grabbed her bags and went towards the boarding gate refusing to look back to where that insolent thief was seated. After boarding the plane and nicely seated, she looked for her book which was nearly finished by now.
While looking into her bag she was totally surprised to find her pack of biscuits nearly intact. If my biscuits are here, she thought feeling terribly, those others were his and he tried to share them with me. Too late to apologize to the young man, she realized with pain, that it was her who had been insolent, uneducated and a thief, and not him!!

Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: NAILS IN THE FENCE

NAILS IN THE FENCE
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His Father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.

Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there."

"A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one. Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to us."

DAILY SCRIPTURES
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18 KJV
Colossians 3:8
But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Proverbs 15:1
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
Proverbs 16:32
He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
Ecclesiastes 7:9
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
Proverbs 10:20
The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
Proverbs 16:1
The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD.
Proverbs 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
Psalm 145:8
The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
James 1:19
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
KINGDOM INFORMATION
Peg, Nail
That pegs, stakes, or nails, denote things which conjoin and strengthen, is because they do conjoin and strengthen. Similar things are also signified by them in the Word throughout; as in Isaiah:--
Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations; forbid not; lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes (Isa. 54:2); a new church from the Lord is here treated of; enlarging the place of the tent, and stretching forth the curtains of the habitations, denotes the doctrine of good and truth, and the consequent worship (AC 9596); long cords, and stakes, denote an ample connection and confirmation of truths. That the court also had its cords may be seen in (Exodus 35:18; Numbers 3:37; 4:32).
[3] Again:--
Look upon Zion; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be dispersed; the stakes thereof shall never be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be pulled away (Isa. 33:20); where stakes, and cords, in like manner denote things which strengthen and conjoin. Nails also denote strengthening and conjunction in (Isaiah 41:7, Jeremiah 10:4); but are there used in regard to idols, by which are signified doctrines of falsity, because from own intelligence (AC 8941, 9494). By the nail however on which anything is hung, is signified affixing and adjoining, in (Isaiah 22:23, 24; Ezekiel 15:3).

Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: CARROT, EGG OR COFFEE

CARROT, EGG OR COFFEE

A daughter complained to her father about life and how hard things are for her. She said she wanted to give up as she was tired of struggling. For just as one problem was solved, another arose.

Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen, filled three pots with water and placed the fire on high.

Soon the three pots came to a boil. In one he placed carrots, in the other he placed eggs and in the last he placed ground coffee beans. He let them sit and boil, without saying a word. The daughter wondered what he was trying to do.

In half an hour he turned down the fire and took out the contents of the pots and put them in bowls. Turning to her he said, “My dear child, what do you see?” Smartly she replied, “Carrots, eggs and coffee.”

He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After shelling it, she observed it was hard-boiled now. Finally, he asked her to take a sip of the fragrant coffee. She winced as it was very strong.

Humbly, she asked, “What does it mean father?” He explained, “Each of them faced the same adversity, 100oC of boiling water. However, each reacted differently. The carrot was strong, hard and unrelenting. But, after going through boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg was fragile. A thin outer shell protected a liquid centre. But after sitting in the boiling water, the inside became hardened. However, the coffee beans are unique. After they were in the boiling water, they became stronger and richer. Which one of these are you?” he asked.

Are you the carrot that seems hard but with the smallest amount of pain, adversity or heat, you wilt and become soft with no strength? Are you the egg, which starts off with a malleable heart? But after a death, breakup, divorce or layoff become hardened and stiff? Your shell looks the same but you are bitter and tough inside. Or are you like the coffee bean? The bean does not get its true flavour until it reaches 100oC. When the water gets hotter, it just tastes better. When things are at their worst, you get better.

So how do you handle adversity? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.

Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: THE INTELLIGENT MULE

THE INTELLIGENT MULE
Once upon a time a farmer owned an old mule. The mule fell into the farmer's well. The farmer heard the mule 'braying' after it fell into the well.
After carefully assessing the situation, the farmer sympathized with the mule, but decided that neither the mule nor the well was worth the trouble of saving. Instead, he called his neighbors together and told them what had happened...and enlisted them to help haul dirt to bury the old mule in the well and put him out of his misery.
Initially, the old mule was hysterical! But as the farmer and his neighbors continued shoveling and the dirt hit his back...a thought struck him. It suddenly dawned on him that every time a shovel load of dirt landed on his back...HE SHOULD SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP! This he did, blow after blow.
"Shake it off and step up...shake it off and step up...shake it off and step up!" he repeated to encourage himself. No matter how painful the blows, or distressing the situation seemed the old mule fought "panic" and just kept right on SHAKING IT OFF AND STEPPING UP!
It wasn't long before the old mule, battered and exhausted, stepped triumphantly over the wall of that well!
What seemed like it would bury him, actually blessed him...all because of the manner in which he handled his adversity!!

POSTS FROM PASTOR OLIVER
Whenever God anointed someone in the Bible, He anointed them for a position, plan or purpose. True anointing is birthed out of pressure, through adversity. When you experience challenges God has a way of releasing His glory in your life. The greater the pressure, the more powerful the anointing you receive.

Have you ever seen the movie Caesar? I love it because Caesar (the ape) recognized that even though he was put in an unfamiliar cage (place), with unfamiliar creatures (people), and faced with unfamiliar issues (things), he never lost his identity. His identity caused him to understand; where he was, did not dictate who he was, and what he would become. Caesar used what God put in him to rise from the bottom to the top! Like the Butler forgot about Joseph, he didn't forget about those who were struggling with "Identity Crisis." When God blesses you because you know; whose you are, and to whom you belong to. Don't forget about those that help you get up to the top.

Here is your word today: don't you ever forget who you are, because God is so good, that he has given you a sense of identity, and who you are is never determined by where you are. As a matter of fact, who you are can reshape wherever you are, if you remain true to who you are.

“Today we fight. Tomorrow we fight. The day after, we fight. And if this situation plans on whipping us, it better bring a lunch, 'cause it's gonna have a long day doing it.”


DAILY SCRIPTURES
Romans 12:3
[ Serve God with Spiritual Gifts ] For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
2 Timothy 2:10
Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Colossians 1:16
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Philippians 2:14
Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
Ephesians 5:20
Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Romans 13:10
Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Ephesians 3:20
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Psalm 15:2
He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
Romans 8:28
King James Version (KJV)
28And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Fresh Oil of Wisdom: Better Than Einstein


Better Than Einstein

At the conclusion of the sermon, the worshipers filed out of the sanctuary to greet the minister. As one of them left, he shook the minister's hand, thanked him for the sermon and said, "Thanks for the message, Reverend. You know, you must be smarter than Einstein." Beaming with pride, the minister said, "Why, thank you, brother!"

As the week went by, the minister began to think about the man's compliment. The more he thought, the more he became baffled as to why anyone would deem him smarter than Einstein. So he decided to ask the man the following Sunday.

The next Sunday he asked the parishioner if he remembered the previous Sunday's comment about the sermon. The parishioner replied that he did. The minister asked: "Exactly what did you mean that I must be smarter than Einstein?"

The man replied, "Well, Reverend, they say that Einstein was so smart that only ten people in the entire world could understand him. But Reverend, no one can understand you."

Daily Scriptures
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” 1 Corinthians 15:1, 3-4 KJV
1 Corinthians 15:48
As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Proverbs 19:27
Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge.
Proverbs 10:17
He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
1 Timothy 6:10
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Proverbs 15:2
The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.

Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Fresh Oil of Wisdom Moments: The Brain and The Mind

The Brain
1) There are no pain receptors in the brain, so the brain can feel no pain.
2) The human brain is the fattest organ in the body and may consists of at least 60% fat.
3) Neurons develop at the rate of 250,000 neurons per minute during early pregnancy.
4) Humans continue to make new neurons throughout life in response to mental activity.
5) Alcohol interferes with brain processes by weakening connections between neurons.
6) Altitude makes the brain see strange visions – Many religions involve special visions that occurred at great heights. For example, Moses encountered a voice emanating from a burning bush on Mount Sinai and Muhammad was visited by an angel on Mount Hira. Similar phenomena are reported by mountain climbers, but they don’t think it’s very mystical. Many of the effects are attributable to the reduced supply of oxygen to the brain. At 8,000ft or higher, some mountaineers report perceiving unseen companions, seeing light emanating from themselves or others, seeing a second body like their own, and suddenly feeling emotions such as fear. Oxygen deprivation is likely to interfere with brain regions active in visual and face processing, and in emotional events.
7) Reading aloud and talking often to a young child promotes brain development.
8 ) Information travels at different speeds within different types of neurons. Not all neurons are the same. There are a few different types within the body and transmission along these different kinds can be as slow as 0.5 meters/sec or as fast as 120 meters/sec.
9) The capacity for such emotions as joy, happiness, fear, and shyness are already developed at birth. The specific type of nurturing a child receives shapes how these emotions are developed.
10) The left side of your brain (left hemisphere) controls the right side of your body; and, the right side of your brain (right hemisphere) controls the left side of your body.
11) Children who learn two languages before the age of five alters the brain structure and adults have a much denser gray matter.
12) Information can be processed as slowly as 0.5 meters/sec or as fast as 120 meters/sec (about 268 miles/hr).
13) While awake, your brain generates between 10 and 23 watts of power–or enough energy to power a light bulb.
14) The old adage of humans only using 10% of their brain is not true. Every part of the brain has a known function.
15) A study of one million students in New York showed that students who ate lunches that did not include artificial flavors, preservatives, and dyes did 14% better on IQ tests than students who ate lunches with these additives.
16) For years, scientists believed that tinnitus was due to a function within the mechanics of the ear, but newer evidence shows that it is actually a function of the brain.
17) Every time you recall a memory or have a new thought, you are creating a new connection in your brain.
18) Memories triggered by scent have a stronger emotional connection, therefore appear more intense than other memory triggers.
19) Each time we blink, our brain kicks in and keeps things illuminated so the whole world doesn’t go dark each time we blink (about 20,000 times a day).
20) Laughing at a joke is no simple task as it requires activity in five different areas of the brain.
21) The average number of thoughts that humans are believed to experience each day is 70,000.
22) There are two different schools of thought as to why we dream: the physiological school, and the psychological school. While many theories have been proposed, not single consensus has emerged as to why we dream. Some researchers suggest that dreams serve no real purpose, while other believe that dreaming is essential to mental, emotional and physical well-being. One theory for dreaming suggests dreams serve to clean up clutter from the mind.
23) The Hypothalamus part of the brain regulates body temperature much like a thermostat. The hypothalamus knows what temperature your body should be (about 98.6 Fahrenheit or 37 Celsius), and if your body is too hot, the hypothalamus tells it to sweat. If you’re too cold, the hypothalamus makes you start shivering. Shivering and sweating helps get your body’s temperature back to normal.
24) Approximately 85,000 neocortical neurons are lost each day in your brain. Fortunately, his goes unnoticed due to the built-in redundancies and the fact that even after three years this loss adds up to less than 1% of the total.
25) Differences in brain weight and size do not equal differences in mental ability. The weight of Albert Einstein’s brain was 1,230 grams that is less than an average weight of the human brain.
26) A living brain is so soft you could cut it with a table knife.
27) There are about 100,000 miles of blood vessels in the brain.
28)  London taxi drivers ,famous for knowing all the London streets by heart, have a larger than normal hippocampus, especially the drivers who have been on the job longest. The study suggests that as people memorize more and more information, this part of their brain continues to grow.
29) The brain can live for 4 to 6 minutes without oxygen, and then it begins to die. No oxygen for 5 to 10 minutes will result in permanent brain damage.
30) Our brain often fools us. It often perceives things differently from the reality. Look at those pictures. Square A and B are actually the same shade of gray.
