Too Attached (Part 2)

January 16, 2014

To Him, Who sits on the throne, be blessings and glory, and wisdom and power forever! Your Majesty, our Lord and God rules and reigns! We are in a new season of our lives, let us walk in our new mercies. God is always about changed lives. It really doesn’t matter whether we were born a certain way, with certain tendencies, weaknesses or vulnerabilities. His glory comes through our yielding to change.
If you fear and respect Him, allow me to declare what He has done for my soul. I realized that I had issues, therefore I cried unto Him believing He would give an ear to my cry. I extolled Him with my whole heart, for, I have learned to keep my doxology in tact. He is not my main squeeze, my buddy, nor is He my Boo-boo. Understand, He is not a man.
I learned from experience that if I regard iniquity (the hidden sins of my linage) in my heart, the Lord will not hear me. Therefore, I make no excuse as to why I do like I do, nor do I boast on the fact that I am like my mother or my dad, as to blame them with no remorse in my heart: the Lord will not hear me. For, we were all born in sin and formed by iniquity. But, when I’ve looked into the mirror (God’s Word) and discovered what displeases Him concerning me, I determined in my heart that I will not sit here, in this place wherein I am bound, and die. He has already commanded life in me, and declared that He will perfect that which concerns me. My soul feasts on His Word, therefore, He increases in me; darkness is dispelled and I become more like Him. I embrace the change I now see. I am no longer labeled by my parents (my mother who was a Hittite, nor my father who was an Amorite). I am no longer attached to the nativity of their strongholds that once controlled me. I have accepted the work afforded me by His Blood; I am now a new creature. I have had a Blood bath (Ezekiel 16:6-14).
The traditions of days gone by can become a birth defect. Recently, a ministry was beginning a clothe closet for a community. We had received a huge donation of very fine clothes and thought to share. The leader closely examined the gifts. “Here, take these back! I don’t wear pants! I don’t believe in them and I won’t give them to anyone else!” I stood back to ponder this great mother of Zion. I realized yet, another level of bondage and polluted blood. The stronghold and controlled of wrong teaching; invalid interpretation of the Word of God. The soul of man can prosper only through truth. It doesn’t matter how sincere or good a thing sounds, it must also be truth. Some things we preach do not teach. Though we should be cautious and decent in our attire as men and women, the weightier matters are the hidden things of the heart, the spirit of our minds that drives us, and, how we engage the brotherhood in Christ. Our walk before God speaks to how we fellowship among ourselves; our walk with God speaks to our fellowship with Him in our quiet time. It determines our doxology. There is a greatest of these, ‘Love your brother’… We sometimes grow attached to our isms and schisms, thinking them to be good things. Yet, we wonder why we do not grow in Him. Buy the truth and sell it not!
Until next time…good health, great wealth, and the wisdom to keep both.

A New Year and New Things

Birmingham Times

January 16, 2014

Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19

Today is the first day of the year and many of you have great plans, have made resolutions and desire to make changes. It’s true that most plans, resolutions and changes won’t happen for long. Many give up quickly on what they want and the things they desire to do because there is no inner motivation and the reasons they want to make the changes are for others. Society says you’re overweight, so you desire to lose weight. The creditors are calling regularly so you want to do better with your finances. You’re tired of being alone so you are going to get out more. If you want to succeed this year with your resolutions and plans DO WHAT MATTERS TO YOU. When you are motivated from within and driven by what matters most to you, you are more likely to succeed.
This year I will be focusing more on the speaking and training business God placed before me three years ago. I begin and then I quit because I get caught up in what’s important to someone else or I begin to focus on how it’s going to happen. This year I am going to follow the lead of God and move forward with “It’s A New Thing Inc.” and help those that are in position to help others so the lost can find their way to a place of safety, security and sanity. I will still send out the devotion but not as consistently. It’s not because getting the Word out isn’t important, it’s because it’s time for me to move to the next level and the burning desire inside of me to help the efforts of Urban School Teachers, Social Workers, Corrections, Probation/Parole Officers, Non Profit personnel and Pastors as well as teens lost in the system has to be quenched with action. The plan is complete, God has given me everything I need – IT’S TIME!
If you need a word of encouragement and haven’t heard from me, please feel free to email me at dbrown@beyondthewalls8.com anytime. In the meantime, go forward with your dreams, bring the vision God showed you to life – no more thinking – it’s time to move forward.

IT’S TIME TO DO A NEW THING,
Minister Deidra Bibb

MY FRIEND JESUS

Birmingham Times

January 16, 2014

“You are my friend if you do what I command.” (John 15:16)

One of the favorite hymns of millions of Christians is the old hymn, “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” It has been popular for many years because we all have a heartfelt need for a friend like Him.
He is a unique friend in that as the hymn says, “He bears our sins and griefs.” No matter how much we may be loved by our friends, we have only one friend who can, and did, bear our sins. His name is Jesus. We sinned, but He paid. He took our sin, our shame, and our punishment upon Himself on the cross. As God’s Word says, “We all like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid upon him the iniquity of us all” (Isaiah 53:6).
He is unique, too, because He can help us bear our griefs. Jesus knows about grief. Isaiah says of Him, “He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with grief” (53:3). Grief is widespread here on this Earth. Death often comes and takes our loved ones, leaving us sad and lonely. When that happens, we need to lean heavily on Jesus. He can help us bear our grief and overcome our sorrow. Oh, what a friend he is.

Celebration of an Affair to Remember
Rev. Joseph R. Reid

An old preacher was dying. He sent a message for a dishonest banker and a crooked lawyer, both church members, to come to his home. When they arrived, they were ushered up to his bedroom. As they entered the room, the preacher held out his hands and motioned for them to sit on each side of the bed. The preacher grasped their hands, sighed contentedly, smiled, and stared at the ceiling. For a time, no one said anything. Both the banker and lawyer were touched and flattered that the preacher would ask them to be with him during his final moments. They were also puzzled; the preacher had never given them any indication that he particularly liked either of them. They both remembered his many long, uncomfortable sermons about excess, greed, and materialistic behavior that made them squirm in their seats. Finally, the banker said, “Preacher, why did you ask us to come?” The old preacher mustered up his strength and then said weakly, “Jesus died between two thieves, and that’s how I want to go. “
Even in the end, our focus is on anything but being happy to go to the next level of life. We miss the point of celebrating the life we lived. There are two ways of celebrating an Affair to Remember. One, by remembering God when we are happy and not suffering and two by becoming love itself and sharing that love unconditionally. The challenge we face is many of us claim to follow the example of Christ yet we seek Him only when we are suffering, in despair or at death’s door. If we don’t start celebrating each moment of life as an affair to remember we will find ourselves old, angry and regretful of the life we have lived and not fit for the Kingdom.
Let me share two ways to avoid this. First, by remembering God when we are happy, as well as when we are suffering and in pain. There are two approaches to God. One approach is to find Him when we are suffering, in pain, sickness, weakness, helplessness and despair. Many of us do not think seriously about following the Lord unless we are in trouble. We worship God only in times of trouble. We worship a bogus god. We have made God a drug or pain pill. God is not a prescription we can turn to when our outer condition has deteriorated.
The second and best approach to God is when we are happy. To worship God is always a time of feasting and celebration. This Bible says, “Just before the Passover Festival Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father.” It was in this hour we see Jesus just before the Passover Festival preparing for the ultimate change, His death and resurrection. Jesus knew that the hour had come for Him to leave this world and go to the Father. But He had an intimate relationship with His father. He was His Father’s Son and He knew He would be taken care of. He was happy to do the will of His Father. We should be happy to serve the Lord. We should be glad to seek Him no matter what’s going on or wrong in our life.
Another way we can celebrate an affair to remember is by becoming love personified and sharing that love unconditionally with everyone. God is Love. But not only that, God is unconditional love. Agape love. Love in spite of! No matter what you do to me, I will love you anyway. This is the state of love and God is the state of love. Jesus symbolically shared this ultimate love with His disciples and before His death. It was truly an affair to remember. We call it the Last Supper. It was during this great event that Jesus washed the feet of the disciples and shared with them communion, telling them to always do this in remembrance of Him. It was not a time of sadness but a time of joy and happiness, for God, “Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.” That love is now available to us all as an affair to remember.

A Quest to Know God

THE THIEF COMES
Are you thinking, what thief? Do you not wonder why thievery is on an increase? Could it be that parents are not doing their duties in training their children in their proper stages, at the appropriate age? Basic teaching and training are crucial. My mother and father reared 13 children. I am the 12th. Not one has ever committed a crime of any sort, and I know of others in the same pattern. You may be thinking that was long ago – well, not really. There are many more opportunities for jobs now than when I grew up, as well as affordable financial help to train for opportunities. So what is the problem? The “key” ingredient is far too many have set their only hope aside, and His name is JESUS. Of course, that is your choice. Nevertheless, I want to address why I chose the topic “the thief comes.”
The thief is your enemy, and his name is ‘Satan,’ and he comes ONLY to STEAL, KILL, and DESTROY. [John 10:10]
You may be thinking, how does he do that, and if you are thinking that, may I show you his tactics – and that is, he comes to STEAL. He steals your time, by showing you many activities to involve you. He traps you into thinking you can work your way into the Kingdom of God, by participating in those activities. Then he KILLS you spiritually, by diverting your attention from reading, studying, and meditating on the Word of God, which is the only way you can learn how to live the Christian life. Next and the finally stage is – you will be ultimately DESTROYED, unless you soon awake and repent. Your enemy and mine knows how to keep you involved with, and in WORTHLESS activities, in order to destroy you. You must remain determined to watch, and stay in close fellowship with your Everlasting Saviour Jesus.

2014 Lexus ES 300 H Sedan

Birmingham Times

January 16, 2014

by Cheryl Eldridge and wire reports

I have always admired the Lexus. Several of my colleagues and family members have owned one at one time or another and never had any complaints. I would like to follow in their footsteps and actually own one as well.
The 2014 luxury hybrid automobile makes that attraction even more intimate due to to it fuel economy of 40mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway.
My fully-loaded $48,542 tester was a dream, not to mention the kids enjoyed the drive. It was very spacious and with voice command delivered a pleasant experience.
The Lexus ES 300h now comes standard with xenon headlights. In addition, sedans with the NuLuxe leatherette upholstery can now be equipped with ventilated seats as an option, while the Display Audio package picks up Siri Eyes Free compatibility for newer iPhones.
The 2014 Lexus ES 300h is the hybrid version of the Lexus ES 350 luxury sedan. It seats five.
Standard equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic xenon headlights, foglights, LED running lights, a sunroof, heated mirrors with memory function, keyless ignition/entry, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, eight-way power front seats (with two-way lumbar adjustment), “NuLuxe” premium vinyl upholstery, a manual tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, Lexus Safety Connect emergency communications, Bluetooth phone connectivity and an eight-speaker sound system with a six-CD changer, satellite radio, an auxiliary audio jack and an iPod/USB audio interface.
The Display Audio package adds the Lexus Remote Touch electronics interface, a 7-inch display screen, rearview camera, a single-CD player, Bluetooth audio connectivity, Siri Eyes Free (enhanced hands-free iPhone functionality and integration) and HD radio with iTunes tagging. The Navigation package includes all of the Display Audio items plus a navigation system, voice controls, traffic and weather, and the Enform suite of smartphone-connected apps and concierge services. A 15-speaker Mark Levinson surround-sound audio system with DVD-audio capability can be added to the Navigation package.
My Premium package builds on the Navigation package and adds a power-adjustable steering wheel, driver memory functions and bamboo wood trim on the steering wheel and shift knob. The Luxury package includes all the Premium items plus parking sensors, heated and ventilated front seats, leather upholstery and a power rear sunshade. Finally, the Ultra Luxury package includes both the Premium and Luxury package items, plus automatic wipers, a power-closing trunk, adjustable seat-bottom cushion length for the driver seat, a heated steering wheel, passenger-seat memory functions, manual rear side sunshades and ambient interior lighting.
Most package options are also available as stand-alone options. Other optional items include a blind spot warning system that includes rear cross-traffic alerts, a lane departure warning system bundled with automatic high-beam control, and adaptive cruise control paired with a pre-collision system.
The 2014 Lexus ES 300h features a hybrid powertrain consisting of a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and an electric motor (powered by a battery pack) that together produce 200 horsepower. Front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) are standard.
The 2014 Lexus ES 300h comes standard with antilock brakes, stability and traction control, front and rear side airbags, side curtain airbags and front knee airbags. Also included is Lexus Safety Connect with automatic crash notification, stolen vehicle location and an emergency assist button.
Optional equipment includes a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, automatic high-beam headlights that turn off when they detect other vehicles, a lane-departure warning system and a blind-spot warning system with rear cross-traffic alerts. The optional adaptive cruise control includes the pre-collision system, which primes the seatbelts and brakes when it senses an impending collision.
The 2014 Lexus ES 300h’s cabin presents a modern, stylish environment. The optional (and sustainable) bamboo wood interior trim is an especially attractive touch. The quality of the materials depends on whether you opt for one of the luxury packages, but in typical Lexus fashion, everything is put together with care regardless of how the ES is equipped.
When you opt for the Display Audio or Navigation packages, you get the Lexus Remote Touch system, a mouselike device that controls a cursor on a large, centrally located screen. The system gives good tactile feedback, but the ultra-sensitive nature of the controller can make it clumsy and distracting to use while driving. The integrated armrest for the Remote Touch system also takes up quite a bit of the center-console.
Six-footers will be quite content in the ES 300h’s front seats. Rear-seat legroom is very impressive as well, and even taller adults will find it quite comfortable back there. Due to the rear-mounted battery pack, trunk capacity drops to 12.1 cubic feet (versus 15.2 cubic feet in the ES 350), and the rear seats do not fold.

Until next week, drive safely, don’t text and drive, and buckle up, it’s the law.

2014 Buick Regal AWD GS

Birmingham Times

January 16, 2014

By Frank S. Washington

DETROIT – The 2014 Buick Regal AWD GS was a snappy compact sedan with a lot of pep for a car equipped with a four-cylinder engine.
Fun started under the hood with the Regal’s 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that made 259 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. It was mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. In GS trim, a six-speed manual is available.
For 2014, the four-cylinder engine generated 18 percent more power than it did for the 2013 model year and the torque was enhanced, delivering 90 percent of its pound-feet between 1,700 and 5,500 RPMs.
This translated into oomph from just about any speed. The test car, which weighed in at 3,981 lbs., could get from zero to 60 mph in a fleet 6.8 seconds. Of course, nothing of the sort was tried on city streets.
Still, the Regal seemed awfully light on its treads. Normal driving revealed that the 2014 Regal AWD GS was quick, it handled with rifle shot accuracy and it could get off the mark when needed at traffic lights and move forward with authority on the expressway.
Its all-wheel-drive system offered a psychological security blanket when a light dusting of snow fell here and in places it created some really slick road surfaces. What’s more, the temperatures plunged to well below freezing and stayed that way for much of the week-long test drive.
That meant the heated steering wheel, the heated front seats and the remote start all were used on a daily basis. A new eight-inch configurable navigation screen was standard on the Regal GS. And the car had the latest IntelliLink infotainment system with the capacity to hold 60 favorites, including radio stations, contacts, destinations, music and other media.
The instrument cluster was also new for 2014, with a high-resolution, 4.2-inch color display that delivered vehicle information, navigation, audio system functions, phone features and more.
The interior was spacious, the car was quiet and the materials were excellent. It was what you’d expect of the reinvigorated Buick.
The Regal GS’ all-wheel-drive system had a 50-50 torque split and the wheels didn’t slip once under normal driving conditions. The system was capable of sending 90 percent of the car’s torque fore or aft.
The GS is the sport package for the Buick Regal and it was more than just an appearance kit. It had three drive modes – Normal, Sport and GS. In the latter, the steering ratio changed, shift mapping quickened and damping was stiffened.
The car had a unique front fascia with large vertical air intake slots. In the rear, the fascia had a pair of integrated trapezoidal exhausts. There were also rocker panel extensions and a rear spoiler. The car was also lower than a normal Regal and it sported 19-inch alloy wheels.
Restyled headlamps and a revised grille showed the revamped face of Regal. Wing-shaped LED tail lamps evoked Buick Enclave styling and gave the car a family look in the rear; not just at the waterfall grille. A new chrome accent that bridged the tail lamps enhanced the car’s wider stance.
Brembo four piston calipers and larger rotors in the front bolstered braking power. A sophisticated suspension ensured that the Regal GS had a smooth ride, it handled bumps and undulating pavement with ease and the suspension reduced torque steer.
The electronic power steering system was responsive, reaction to driver input was smart and it did have a little feedback.
The test vehicle featured two option packages. The driver confidence package No. 1 featured a sensor that continuously computed the distance and the speed both of the vehicle in front and calculated whether there was enough stopping distance. It was coupled with forward collision alert that sounded once when morning rush hour traffic abruptly slowed to a crawl.
There was also rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning that could be easily turned off and blind side alert. Adaptive cruise control and automatic collision preparation comprised package No. 2. A sunroof and white diamond coat paint were standalone options costing $1,000 and $995 respectively.
The Regal AWD GS had a base price of $39,270. Add on the options and the freight charges and the sticker totaled $44,775.
