7 Keys To God's Timing (2026)

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in RichThoughts

If a quarterback's timing is off...he's going to have a bad day with more interceptions than touchdowns.  

If a basketball player, whether high school, college or professional, has his timing off. . .he won't be able to pass or connect with the basket no matter how big the rim is.

If life. . .if your timing is off. . .you can miss possibilities. . .and opportunities for success.

Timing is important in life.

Something can be a good idea. . .it can be a great idea. . .it can be a God idea but for it to be successful it must be in God's timing. 

Here are seven facts you ought to know about His timing.

1.      The Holy Spirit gives you the timing.

Have you ever wondered if it was the right time to make a career change. . .to ask someone to marry you. . .to present your ideas to your supervisors?

Knowing when to speak. . .is equally important to what you’re going to say.

Acts 1:7-8 in the Message Bible says:

Top 10 - Give HIM Control

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in Top 10's

10.  Write this down...get it deep inside of you. “God will never remind me of my past. He can’t. . .He’s forgotten it.”  (Hebrews 8:12; Jeremiah 31:34)

  9.  Faith destroys fear…crushes doubt...conquers the unknown...inspires others and makes you victorious in all your hands find to do.

  8.  The worst air pollution isn't from a factory smokestack but rather the negative, faithless words of an uninformed Christian.

  7.  Breakthroughs begin when you say, "I'm not going to live this way anymore."

  6.  No matter how you may have missed it or messed up…turn to God. He has not given up on you or let you go and He never will.

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.

  5.  The enemy will fail when we speak what we believe...rather than speaking what we see.

  4.  We will never increase our own value, importance or self-worth by continually reminding someone else of their faults.

  3. If we focus on the obstacles, we face…we can’ the opportunities available to us.

  2.  Never give up your dream or allow anyone else to steal it.

7 Ways To Energize Your Life

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in RichThoughts

I can tell you without hesitation there is something that God wants each of us to get in

1 Corinthians 15:20-22.  Here’s what it says;

“But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.  For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.”

You can’t enjoy the rich and satisfying life He has in mind for us. . .by just going along . . . to get along . . . so you can just get by.  That’s not what being “alive” means to your Lord and Savior.

Here are seven things God expects of those who are really alive.

1.  Mentally alert.

I feel led to share three scriptures with you on how to be mentally alert.  Then I’m going to share a scripture that will make you shout for joy.

Ephesians 6:18 in the Amplified Bible says:

“Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people).”

Prayer keeps you alert and focused on your purpose.

1 Peter 1:13 in the Amplified Bible says:

Top 10 - Don't Fret

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in Top 10's

10.  Don’t fret about being slow to speak. . .because it gives God the opportunity to tell you what to say. Ex 4:10-11

  9.  While everybody else is saying, “No, you can’t” … if God is saying, “Yes, you can.” Who are you going to believe?

  8.  You have the mind of Christ (1 Cor 2:16) so ask God to stir in you a supernatural creativity beyond your natural imagination.

  7.  Look for something good in every person you meet...and you'll find it.

  6.  Change your words to His words and you will change your world. Rom 12:2 TLB

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.

  5.  No matter how you may have missed it or messed up…turn to God. He has not given up on you or let you go and He never will.

  4.  Never judge a person by the color of their skin or their neck.

  3. If you’re in the fight of your life. . . remember, God’s in your corner.

  2.  Your destiny will be determined by who and what you choose to believe.

Seven Things God Wants To Show You

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in RichThoughts

Some years ago (22 to be exact), there was a movie entitled “Jerry McGuire.”

Truthfully, I’ve never watched the entire movie. . .however, I did see part of the Oscar –winning performance by Cuba Gooding, Jr., as an athlete seeking a more lucrative financial contract.

Throughout the movie, Gooding would say to Tom Cruise his agent “Show me the money” which became an immediate pop culture sensation.

The phrase “Show me the money” was then repeated for some time by celebrities and normal people like you and me.

A few days ago, I was doing a search on money. . .when I came across that phrase “show me the money.”

I smiled and did an immediate search on “show me.”  The result of which. . .is this teaching on ‘seven show me’s’ God wants to show us.

1.         Show me the way.

There are actual people who live the words of the Hank Williams, Sr. song which goes like this.

“I’ve wandered so aimless, life filled with sin

I wouldn't let my dear Savior in

Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night

Praise the Lord, I saw the light

Top 10 - Ask God

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in Top 10's

10. Lack of opportunity? Create it. Lack of confidence? Develop it. Lack of education? Go get it. Lack of success? Ask God how to make it happen.

  9.  Success will not just happen because you’re a nice person or even because you love the Lord. You must have a plan. Proverbs 16:3

  8.  Today…take what God says in His Word and imagine it manifesting in your life.

  7.  It’s time to stop letting other people use your head as a septic tank for trash talk and toxic thoughts. Philippians 4:8

  6.  Decide today not to settle for less than His best.

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.

  5.  Our birth is evidence that God has plans for our lives. Jeremiah 29:11

  4.  The path of least resistance will often lead us to a place we don’t want to be.           

  3.  Faith is a decision…it’s not a feeling or an emotion…it’s a fact.

  2.  Praying for your day to be filled with supernatural favor, divine connections, revelatory insight and previously unknown opportunities.

7 I am's That Define and Empower You (2026)

Written by Harold Herring. Posted in RichThoughts

On August 30, 2017 while riding in the car with her Mom, Abby. . .Sophia Lee PreJean, our most precious Grand Sugar was recorded saying. . .

“I am wise

I am kind

I am gracious

I am strong

I am loving”

Then with an Academy Award winning smile. . .Sophia would say it again.

Needless to say my fine wife, Bev, and I watched that video over and over.

Not only was the video cute. . .but it was instilling in Sophia. . .a set of beliefs that will serve her well all the days of her life.

With a grandfatherly pride. . .I showed that video to many of my friends but didn’t think about teaching it until now.

Why now?  Bev and I are reading a nightly devotional from the “Book of Mysteries” written by Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, the author of The Harbinger and a number of other books.  We read Day Two every night for two weeks. . .I’m going to share with you part of what Rabbi Cahn wrote:

Top 10 - What God Wants You To Be...

10.  Our birth is the evidence that God has plans for our lives. Jeremiah 29:11

  9.  “You don’t know my circumstances.” First, don’t own them. Second, God is bigger than they are. Third, they’re God’s problems not yours.  I Peter 5:7

  8.  Your current economic conditions have nothing to do with your potential for fulfilling your divine destiny…but God does.

  7.  It's a good idea to forgive everybody in your past...just in case...you need forgiveness in the future.

  6.  Never say anything you don't want God to hear or satan to act on.

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.

  5.  God has a bright future planned for you. . .don’t miss it by living in the past and refusing to change for the future.

  4.  Confess this: "I can do more than I think I can because I have the mind of Christ functioning fully and freely within me."

  3. "God wants us to be movers and shakers not doubters and fakers." Bev Herring

  2.  Moving out of your comfort zone into the new thing God has planned for you will take persistence to overcome any resistance.
