A faithful minister must remain true to God and to his word;

remain compassionate to the people;

function as an intercessor;

My faithfulness must never be determined by the faithfulness of the people to whom I am sent, but only by the faithfulness of Him who sent me.

• Whatever is happening in the world right now, if you belong to God and your expectations are from God, you will not end up like other men. 

• God always separates between right and wrong, good and evil, the just and the unjust… eventually. 

• The inheritance of the saints includes trials and tribulations.

  
  

The reason for Jesus' endtime prophecies is to strengthen the faith of believers.

You cannot accomplish godly purposes by using ungodly means. 

Asking God to bless our enterprise is inviting Him into a partnership. God does not partner with unrighteousness.

The wisest thing you can do is to trust in the Lord with all your heart.

God is not the author of confusion. When He  wants us to rest, He will not give us strength. 

An inability to rest is sometimes an indication that we do not trust God.

If the focus is not on God, whatever else it may be on, it is idolatry. 

God is not against glory nor is He against pleasure. The problem He has with us is that we settle for less, way less than He has planned for us.

Waiting time is not wasted time. God has a purpose in making us wait. 

If we come to God only for blessings, and not for God Himself, that is idolatry.

No matter what you lose in life, you're not a loser, unless you lose faith. Don’t be a loser! Don’t lose faith!

This was a powerful and timely message shared by Minister Brooke Mackall at a Youth Conference, in Jessup, Maryland.

The highest and best result of faith is the testimony we receive from God.

All through the scriptures, great emphasis is placed on the knowledge of God. 

Proximity does not guarantee intimacy. Lucifer was close to God, yet he sinned against God because he did not know God. 

When things do not go as expected, young faith throws a tantrum; adolescent faith pouts; mature faith trusts God enough to joyfully accept whatever God brings its way.

The ultimate purpose of faith is not salvation, or even answers to prayers. The ultimate purpose of faith is the knowledge of God.

God tests our faith from time to time. Additionally the scriptures exhort us to examine ourselves to see if we are in the faith.
