Key Tovography

And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (Philippians 4:8, NLT)

Have you ever heard of Key Tovography? We’ve posted some information about it below.

Key Tovography: Anointed photographer who believes pictures are not made up of a camera & a subject. True photography is capturing an emotion in time & saving it for all eternity, all for His glory. (1 Corinthians 10:31)

You may find us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/key-tovography and http://keytovography.wordpress.com.

For those of you who don’t know, I am a photographer. 

Here are a few of our shots.








In the field of photography, the challenge that blows me away the most is, people will take the two or three things they don’t like about themselves (of which, are generally unseen by everyone else) and meditate on that instead of the hundreds of positive things about them. What a disgrace to God’s creation, always look for the good! Even within yourself.

I once heard, Brother Keith Moore at Moore Life Ministries teach on Philippians 4:8 and he said something to the effect of, don’t stick to one part of that verse. Make every thought line up with every aspect of that verse….something may be true, but it may not be lovely. 

To further elaborate, if a thought is not in alignment with every point of that verse, simply do not meditate on it, do not think on it.

Please make the following confession with me, 

Father in the name of Jesus, I take every thought captive and I make every thought quality with every point of Philippians 4:8. I only meditate on and fix my thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. I only think about, meditate on, and fix my thoughts on things that are excellent and worthy of praise! Thank You for teaching us life lessons so that we may have life in excessive abundance!

Heavenly Perspective

For He raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with Him in the Heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2:6, NLT)

A while back, I read a devotion by Dr. Bill Hanshew entitled, "Standing in the Shadow of a Man of God." You may find the link below.

http://www.billhanshewministries.org/Devotion--079.html

Everyone should read the devotion because it is excellent training. Everyone should keep it close and re-read it to maintain that training. 

There are many great aspects of the devotion; however, the one that I have been meditating on is the overall chord running through the devotion (as well as Dr. Hanshew and this ministry) and that is, Heavenly Perspective.

No matter what storms may rage, above the storm we find, Heavenly perspective. Look through the dark clouds to Heavenly perspective. Every storm that rages in our lives can be fought through Heavenly perspective.


Heavenly Perspective = God's Perspective = God's Word (The Bible)

Offense…Matthew 18:15
Infertility… Deuteronomy 28:4
Marriage…Ephesians 5:22-33
Unruly children…Proverbs 22:6
Unbelief…1 John 5:14
Finances...Luke 6:38
Health...Isaiah 54:5
Battles…Ephesians 6:12
Manipulation...Matthew 24:4, Galatians 5:1, 
Gossip...Proverbs 29:19
"I don't know what to do."...Jeremiah 29:11 so 1 Peter 5:7
'I don't know what to say."…Ephesians 5:1 
"I can't, this is so hard."...Galatians 6:9

We could do this all day!

Our God, our Heavenly Father, the Creator of Heaven and earth, the Owner of everything on earth, the Giver of all good gifts has given us everything we need for life and godliness in and through His Holy...life giving…life changing Word! (Psalm 18:2, 1 John 3:1, Psalm 146:6, Psalm 50:12, James 1:17, 2 Peter 1:3, Hebrews 4:12)

And He is The One who's love will never be separated from us!
(Romans 8:38) 

Does that mean there won't be storms? Absolutely not. But that does mean, we keep our eyes and hearts beyond the dark clouds, above the storm, through to Heavenly Perspective, we rise above the storm and walk in Heavenly Perspective!

For every storm that rages, find your answer in the Bible, and keep Heavenly Perspective!


Father, thank You for teaching us how to find and to keep Your perspective. When the black clouds roll in and the battle rages, we know that we know that we know, we are seated with You. Thank You for uniting us with Christ Jesus! I pray for every reader right now, as well as myself, in the name of Jesus I decree and declare we are not deterred, discouraged, or distracted by dark clouds but we see through the dark clouds to Your perspective. We walk in Your perspective in the name of Jesus!
