1 Corinthians 9:24-27: how are you doing in your race? Have you run off the track distracted or are you focused on Jesus?

24 Do you not know that all the runners in a stadium compete, but only one receives the prize? So run to win. 25 Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one. 26 So I do not run uncertainly or box like one who hits only air. 27 Instead I subdue my body and make it my slave, so that after preaching to others I myself will not be disqualified.

Set the @Microsoft @SharePoint Performance Point dashboard to default to yesterday's date. This will work for 2007 and 2010!

Okay, I have followed this thread for a while and tried so many methods to get this to work, eventually I hacked my way through almost all the SP2010 and SP2007 JavaScript and found the following to work on SP2010 and I had it working in SP2007 with a different tad prefix.

1.       find out what the Javascript id prefix of your calendar parts are.

                                 i.            -To do this, start your dashboard in IE8 or IE9 and hit F12 to start the Javascript Debugger.

                               ii.            -User the Javascript GetElementByTagName("TD") to get a full list of all the TD tags on the page.

                              iii.            -Look for the tags that have a GUID in the id and that end with _Selection and Selection_Toggle.

                             iv.            -These will be your calendar filter parts. Note the starting prefix (in SP2007 it was ct_100_ in SP2010 it is pps_)

2.       add the following Javascript to the end of your master page which is used for the Dashboards (look at end of the post)

3.       save the master page and refresh your browser and the date should change to yesterday. I have also created this for a dashboard with two calendar filters on it to allow for date range filtering and this will set the first date to 11 days earlier and the second date to yesterday.

Its harvest time and God is taking aim...

Today God has loaded all His barrels with the harvest laborers and He has taken aim and He has fired! You, the harvest laborer, are the bullet that will deliver His message with surprise and accuracy right through the enemies front door! The gun powder is what causes a bullet to be so powerful and devastating to the enemy, the bullet is simply the deliverer of that power. In the same way, God's love and His Word are the power with which He is firing the harvest laborers into His harvest fields.

Live Free From Fear 
Gloria Copeland 

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. 
- Psalm 91:1-3 

Is it possible to live free from fear in this dangerous and unpredictable world? Yes, it most definitely is! Because protection is a solid promise of God.

But it's not a promise that's offered to just anyone; it is promised to those who abide in the Lord. To abide means to dwell, to remain and to continue. To abide in the shadow of the Almighty is to live in continual union with Him, keeping His Word and obeying His voice. Those who abide in the Lord can live without dread of what the devil will do.

Let me make this clear though-- God's promise of protection doesn't guarantee that the devil will leave you alone! It means that God will give you a way of escape every time the devil rears his ugly face at you.

If you are afraid of the dangers around you, spend more time in the Word and in prayer until your trust in God overcomes your fear. Draw closer to the Lord until you are abiding in the shadow of the Almighty and--no matter how dangerous this world becomes--He surely shall deliver you!

Compassion? Psalm 103:8 "The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love."

Compassion, noun
1. a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune, accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering, from Dictionary.com

Psalm 103:8 "The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love."

This is what the Lord does for us, what have we done for Him lately?

Compassion precedes Jesus Miracles. Yes, Jesus loves you so much that He died for you, so you can be forgiven...

35 Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few. 38 Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest.”
Matt 9:35-38 (WEB)

Revolutionary Love 
Kenneth Copeland 

Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances and it endures everything [without weakening]. Love never fails--never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. 
- 1 Corinthians 13:7-8 

Love never fails. Nothing works without it, and there can be no failure with it. When you live by love, you cannot fail.

It takes faith to believe that love's way will not fail. The natural mind cannot understand that because the natural man and his world are ruled by selfishness.

But when you practice love by faith and refuse to seek your own, you put the Father into action on your behalf. As long as you stay in love, God the Father seeks your own. He sees to it that you succeed. Walking in love is to your great advantage!

Agape love is a new kind of power. It makes you master of every situation. No weapon that is formed against you will prosper. No one even has the power to hurt your feelings because you are not ruled by feelings but by God's love. You are loving as He loves.

This love is revolutionary. If we fully understood the great return from living God's love, we'd probably be competing with each other, each of us trying to love the other more. And without a doubt, everyone would emerge from that competition a winner! For love is truly the only sure secret to our success.

We are at war! A spiritual war and most people don't even know it. Awesome @Copelandnetwork message...

Spiritual Armor for Spiritual War 
Kenneth Copeland 

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 
- Ephesians 6:12 

Unfortunately, most of us don't know the first thing about fighting the kind of war in this scripture. For, as Ephesians 6:10-12 says, it's not a battle of flesh and blood, but of the spirit.

Most believers are so earthly minded (or carnally minded) that they never even realize the actual source of the enemy's attacks. They blame circumstances and people. They waste their energy fighting natural conditions instead of supernatural causes.

We need to wake up to the warfare that's going on in the heavenly realm!

We can get a glimpse of it in Daniel 10:12-20. There, we find that Daniel had been fasting and praying for 21 days, awaiting a word from the Lord. Then, an angel appeared to him 21 days later with the answer. What took him so long? He was fighting the enemy in the heavens.

That confuses some people. They say, "Devils fighting in heaven? I thought God reigned in heaven!" What they don't understand is that the Bible teaches there are three different areas called heaven:

1. The heaven where God resides.

2. The stellar heavens (what we call "outer space").

3. The heavens around this earth (the atmosphere surrounding this planet).

This last heaven is where spiritual war takes place. (That's why Ephesians 2:2 calls Satan the prince of the power of the air.) The air is where wicked spirits operate. From there, they attempt to rule the nations assigned to them.

And rule them they will unless the prayers of God's people keep them from it.

God has an army marching in this land. If we band together, we can prevent the wickedness in high places from ruling our nation. The time has come for us to pray. So, put on your full armor and take your place in the ranks of the faithful in intercession for our country and the nations of the world!

3D printed Beak for a Bald Eagle? WOW, technology is growing up fast!

This morning I spoke about SA leaders, here are some of the wise words of our leaders...AWESOME! WE can change this country!

Your attitudes can make a difference, not just to you, but to your children....

I am proud to be South African, and our attitudes about our environment will dictate our children's attitudes and future action in this country.

Isn't it interesting that most people in South Africa complain about it and yet do nothing to make a difference. You can be the positive change in your community, all you gotta do is love you neighbour as yourself and then do something that fits in line with that.

The teen suicide rate in SA is linked to the fact that many kids do not think they have a future in SA, an attitude which is created by parents and media who build this image in their minds.

This is why it is important that we start to teach our children how to be the positive change in their country, so that they will know how to make a change to their environment in the future, otherwise, who will teach them this?

Japan crop circles solved by God Almighty, AGAIN! Come on people, Jesus is mightier than anything we know or understand, what's holding you back from admitting the truth?

Our deepest fear. I love this paragraph, it is true and inspiring!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” by Marianne Williamson

What. Else could this be used for? The possibilities are endless. I am involved in IT and programming and these are the kinds of projects that I wish I could be working on! Go for it @microsoft, I am rooting for you.

PS: I love your new unified Windows 8 strategy, I only wish I had waited a while before I upgraded my phone, but I love the Lumia 900 I have, well done guys!

PPS: You could use live Bing 3D street views in a holodeck to allow people to travel to land mark places from their own home! You could even replace the signage on the billboards or advertising media with adverts from you advertising department, then you can make money without pushing adverts on people, rather just using the ones already in that environment of the holodeck for your own purposes.

Plant a Seed and Watch It Grow!
Kenneth Copeland

And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
- Mark 4:30-32

Jesus compares the workings of the kingdom of God to planting seeds in the earth. "When the seed is sown," He said, "it grows up...."

Notice He didn't say that it would occasionally grow up. Or it grows up if it's God's will. He said, "It grows up and becomes greater." Period.

God's economy isn't like ours. It isn't up one day and down the other. It's always the same and it always works perfectly. If you have good earth, good seed and good water, you're going to have growth. It's inevitable.

So, if you're facing a need, don't panic... plant a seed!

That seed may take the form of money or time or some other resources you have to give. But, no matter what form it takes, make sure you put life in it by giving it in faith and surrounding it with praise and worship. Say, "Lord, as I bring You my goods, I bring myself. I give myself to You--spirit, soul and body."

Pray over that seed. Fill it with faith, worship and the Word. Then plant it. You can rest assured--it will grow up and become greater!

Under Pressure? Plant!
Kenneth Copeland

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
- Galatians 6:7

If you feel like you're under pressure these days, you're not alone. Satan is putting more pressure on more people right now than ever before. He's pressuring us mentally, financially, emotionally and every other way he can. The pressure has gotten so great everywhere that governments don't know what to do. Businesses don't know what to do. Families don't know. Churches don't know.

But, praise God, Jesus does! He says we can give our way right out from under any pressure the devil brings to bear.

Giving is always Jesus' way out. Whenever there's a need, He plants seed! In fact, in Mark 4, He compares the entire kingdom of God to a seed. Just think about the importance of seeds for a moment. Every living thing on this earth came from a seed. You came from a seed. Then you were born again from the seed of God's Word. Jesus Himself was The Seed planted by God. God sowed Him in sacrifice. He came forth and grew up into many brethren.

So, when Satan puts you under pressure, go to Jesus and let Him tell you how and where to plant. If you'll do it, that seed will grow up until it breaks the powers of darkness and lack. It will release you from the pressure the devil's been putting on you.

I've seen it happen. When Jerry Savelle first began to work for my ministry, he didn't have but one suit of clothes and one shirt with a pair of slacks to his name. He wore one, then the other, night after night to every service we held. He didn't have the money to even think about buying another suit. I'm telling you, he was under pressure where clothes were concerned!

Then he found out about the principle of seed-faith and harvest. So, he went downtown in the city where we were in a meeting and found a fellow on the street who needed clothes and gave him some. Immediately people started giving Jerry clothes. It started in that meeting and they've been doing it ever since. Today, there are many preachers in Africa wearing Jerry Savelle suits! (Even if the sleeves and pant legs are way too short!) He's still sowing and reaping the greatest clothes harvest I've ever seen.

If the devil's pressuring you, don't panic...plant! Plant your time. Plant your money. Plant the clothes off your back. When your harvest comes in, you can laugh and say, "Hey, Devil, who's feeling the pressure now?"

Don't Settle for "Payment Faith"
Gloria Copeland

Those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.
- Psalm 34:10, New King James Version

God has always wanted His people to live in abundance. Even in the book of Deuteronomy, He talked about His people living in a land where they would live in goodly houses and where there was no scarcity.
He has told us that all He has is ours. God put everything in His Word for you and me. And He has no shortage! He wants you to live in abundance. He wants you to live in a good house. He wants you to have the car that you need. He wants you to be so blessed that you don't even have to think about those things. That way, you can just think about Him, instead of trying to make your car go another 50 miles.
He wants His family to be abundantly supplied, to be following Him, to be walking after His ways of doing and being right.
Now, I know it costs money to live. It costs money to go places and do things. It costs money to reach people for Jesus. And God's got the money! He's not broke.
But He's had a problem...getting His people to believe what He says in His Word concerning their prosperity.
One thing that interferes with our believing and receiving is located right between our ears. It's called reason. When Jesus asked Philip how they were going to feed the 5,000, he began to reason. He began to look and see what was possible. "Lord, if we had two hundred penny worth of bread, we couldn't even begin to do it. There wouldn't be enough to feed the people."
But Jesus already knew what was to happen. He wasn't looking at anything but Father God.
That's the same God you and I are hooked up to today. That same God knows how to multiply and bless and prosper you and me now. God knows how to get things done.
What we have a tendency to do is release our faith for what we believe we can see'that, along with some help from God, might come to pass. For example, some people have "payment faith" and some people have "house faith."
"Lord, I believe to make this payment. I believe to make my car payment. I believe to make my house payment."
Why don't they just believe for a house?
Get out beyond reason. Get out beyond what's reasonable. Now, don't quit making your car payment or your house payment, but get your faith out there. Let God multiply you and be your source. Pay it off supernaturally and get the next one without payments. Base your faith and praying on what the Word says, not on what you see is possible in this realm. According to the Bible, all things are possible with God and all things are possible to the believer. God and a believer make an unbeatable pair!
Don't settle for payment faith when you can have "have it" faith!
