Feed Your Opportunities and Starve Your Disappointments

                                                                                 
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Thursday February 27, 2014 !!! Thought for Today…We should never let disappointments and setbacks stop us from pursuing God’s purpose. There are always  good reasons why God allows certain events to occur. Though they may be painful, it must be necessary for the development of our character. Let us allow God to be God in our lives. Yield to his Spirit in your life even when you don’t understand. Recognize new opportunities that he may have for you. Trust him and believe that all things are working together for good for them that love him. I declare and decree that I will trust God in every situation. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With love from Me and My Family !!!

Feed Your Opportunities and Starve Your Disappointments

Like a man with a blindfold that is unable to see.
Focusing on our disappointments blinds us of our potential affecting our destiny.

Disappointments are barriers that block our dreams from receiving power.
They are the dominating thought that saturates a man’s mind hour by hour.

It keeps a man frozen in time as if the earth has stopped moving.
He believes that all of his dreams are dead so he stops pursuing.

Now is the time to raise our dream from the dead.
We must consume ourselves with opportunities until we are fed.

Let us soar with the momentum that it takes to make us strong.
Let us no longer be anchored to the past by the things that we have done wrong.

Disengage

                                                                                

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!!Happy Tuesday February 25, 2014 !!! We have all experienced being in a conversation with someone that had turned heated. We had allowed our emotions and tempers to be so engaged in a topic that it took us somewhere that we didn’t want to be. Afterwards, we may have asked the question, “how did I end up here?” It is important at this point that we recognize that there is never a justifiable reason to lose control.  As soon as we since that a conversation is turning south, we have an obligation to disengage from it to prevent a negative situation from occurring. Disengaging doesn’t mean that we gave in but on the contrary, it means that we had decided to take control over our situation before the situation controlled us. Let us be as wise as serpents but harmless as doves. I declare and decree that I will disengage from situations when needed. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love From Me and My Family !!!

Disengage

When one becomes angry with someone, there is a way to win,
 One doesn’t have to entertain the thought of committing a sin.

We can disengage ourselves from a heated situation to prevent a negative outcome.
We don’t have to allow our feelings to rule over us: we can overcome.

Pride tries to tempt us to do whatever it takes to settle the score.
Battles are won when one does whatever it takes to avoid the fight and still win the war.

When we disengage ourselves from trouble we won’t find ourselves in a pit.
Let us humble ourselves to the truth that we should always seek peace and pursue it.

Don't be a Part-time Sheep

                                                                           


Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Monday February 24, 2014 !!! Our first ministry begins in the home. We are to represent Jesus 24/7. As a True Believer, we are to be committed to the faith by being Spirit-led in all our communications with family members. We are to give the upmost respect, love and mercy to all because of the love for our God. The sign that we are real Children of God is proven by the love that we express to each other. Jesus is living to forever Intercede for God's Children. If we are followers of Jesus, we are also praying for one another. The enemy (Satan) is an accuser of the brotheren. If we live to judge our Christian Brothers and Sisters to say evil about them, we become followers of Satan who says nothing but evil about us to the Father. What are you saying to the Heavenly Father about your family members? Are you interceding or complaining? Are you acting like Jesus or Satan? I declare and decree that I will be a follower of Jesus at all times.
May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family ! With Love from me an My family !

Don't be a Part-time Sheep

There are many wolves dressed as sheep in the home.
When there is an opportunity to evil their mouth foams.

At Church these wolves portray themselves to be God Chosen vessels, a holy creature..
But when they get home, the sheep clothes comes off revealing their true nature.

God knows all things unlike man, he cannot be deceived.
He knows the imposers in church from those who really believes.

True Believers are Christians all day everyday.
They take their faith serious with no time to play.

When they are stressed, true Believers are still Spirit-led.
They don't let the flesh lead them forgetting about what God has said.

Let us be Jesus' sheep following his example all of the time,
Let us never be a wolf pretending to be a sheep committing the worst crime.

Live This Day As If It is Your Last

                                                                          


Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!!  Happy Saturday February 22, 2014 !!! Today is the most important day in our lives. It is an opportunity to correct some mistakes in our past. Also, it is a time to plan for the future. But the greatest impact of today is that we can plant seeds in us and around us that can change our lives forever. For An Example, there will be some people who will FULLY give their lives to  Jesus today which will change their future from eternal damnation to everlasting salvation with Jesus. What are some other decisions that we can make today that will have a great impact in our future? Don’t trivialize the power of “today”. MAKE A DECISION, TODAY AND PLANT SEEDS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER.  I declare and decree that I will not trivialize the power of today but I will make a decision. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Live This Day As If It is Your Last

What we do today has the greatest impact towards our destination.
Planting good seeds today will begin to grow, preventing life stagnation.

The past is only a history of events that helps us prevent future mistakes.
Tomorrow is a test that we may or may not ever have to take.

Today is like a check that you can cash and spend right away.
No one is promised to see or lived through another day.

Live this day as if it is your last because it just might be.
Why wait for today’s treasures to be opened, when you already have the key.

Avoid Evil

                                                                        
 Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Friday February 21,2014 !!! You don’t have to look far to find evil all around. It is quite apparent that the people of this world love darkness more than light. Although we see sin magnified on television, movies or in our work environments, let us avoid evil by staying in the presence of God. We are Children of Light if we embrace what pleases God and turn our backs on all opposition to God’s Holy Will. It is vital that we as Believers’ love Holiness and hate all forms of evil. We become what we constantly meditate on whether it’s good or evil. I declare and decree that I will keep my mind stayed on things above so I can depart from the many traps that are set against me below. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Avoid Evil

Evil is everywhere like germs it is all around.
Its effects are deadly like seeing living green grass turning brown.

What can we do to not be affective by this deadly disease?
We can stay out of sin and seek the Holy God to please.

With his help we can withstand the power of sin.
If sin is not present evil cannot thrive-it can’t even begin.

God will destroy all evil one glorious day-his word we can always trust.
Meanwhile let us avoid sin, evil will still be everywhere except inside of us.

Get out of the Boat

                                                                                  
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Thursday February 20, 2014 !!!When we  have a true love for Our Heavenly Father, obedience to his word comes naturally. Our greatest desire is to see Jesus Christ magnified and Our God Glorified in all that we do. It is our Joy to follow Jesus as he leads us to do the Father’s Holy Will. We treasure our rich relationship with God through Christ above all earthly treasures. When we are confronted with a fearful event, it is the love that we have for God that pushes out of the boat . We recognize that we no longer live to do our Will but the Father’s will. Let us perpetually be available for the Father to use us as he sees fit. I declare and decree that I will not be complacent in my walk with God but I will leave my comfort zone and yield to the Holy Spirit in all areas. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Get out of the Boat

Many Believers are seeing their walk with Christ like taking a luxury cruise.
 They believe that God called them to a life of ease-to suffer for Christ, they have refused.
                                 
They call on God, like a man call on a waiter to serve him his selfish desires.
Being so consumed with their own lives, there is no time to save people from eternal fires.

Jesus didn’t sit around in paradise to have a good view of a world that is perishing in sin.
Because of the love that he had for God, he had to do the Father’s will and step in.

Let us stop allowing the devil to trick us into being overly concern with our own needs which paralyses us with fear.
Let us get out of the boat getting muddy and wet to rescue people out of a sin filled world that will eventually disappear.

This Too Shall Pass

                                                                            
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Wednesday 19, 2014 !!! Sometimes it seems like our trails will last forever. Day after day we wrestle with the same issues for years. It seems that God hasn’t heard our prayers. We know that we have to suffer with Christ in order to reign with him but it is difficult to endure when we don’t know how long the trail will last. Be Encourage, my friends for this too shall pass. Let us know that Our Heavenly Father is always at work in perfecting us into the image of Jesus Christ. Surrender to his will and let God have his way. Weeping may endure for a night but joy will come in the morning. I declare and decree that I will be patient in my trails knowing that God is perfecting me into the image of Jesus Christ. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!
This too Shall Pass

When peace leaves a room and the tensions remains,
Hope is not lost but with God it’s maintained.

For the battles that we fight don’t belong to us,
We have a God who cares that we can trust.

The release of regret maybe the hardest to do.
Let go, don’t be attached to a situation like glue.

Know that all painful events in our lives are not in the same class.
Remember, no matter how dreadful a situation is “this too shall pass”

You Can’t Preach What You Don’t Practice

                                                                               
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ!!! Happy Tuesday February 18, 2014 !!!There have been cases where some parents have told their children,” to do what I say but not what I do.” If they have not said this out rightly, they have implied it in how they live.  For an example, we tell our children that there is never a need to argue. We say that all disagreements can be handled in a peaceful way which is God’s Will. Shortly afterwards, the children may see the parents fight like cats and dogs. What lesson are we really teaching? It is written that we are to seek peace and pursue it. He has never told us to seek to be right and to prove it. It is unfortunately in many cases that our children see the opposite of what we teach them. It has been proven that children will naturally do what parents do before they do what they say. This is why Jesus Christ is and always will be the greatest of all leaders. Jesus always practiced what he taught without exception which made it easy for his disciples to follow him. Let us do the same as parents. By us doing what we teach, we make it easy for our children to obey. I declare and decree that I will practice what I teach my children. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family!!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

You Can’t Preach What You Don’t Practice

There are many leaders, who are failing at being respected,
Their followers are not loyal so their instructions go neglected.

These leaders say one thing but do another,
Their followers don’t listen and refuse to be led by them any further.

In order for good leaders to have people submitted to them that they can reach,
They must be a person of great character who practices what they preach.

To do otherwise, the leader sends a message that they themselves don’t believe,
When leaders do the opposite of what they say, they cannot succeed.

If you want to be truly effective in your leadership, live what you say,
If you are not willing to carry out what you speak, why should others obey?

When a King Speaks

                                                                            
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ!!!Happy Monday Presidents' Day February 17, 2014!!! In the beginning, when God spoke, all things were created. It is written that he will create the fruits of our lips too. It also says that life and death is in the power of the tongue. Sometimes it is really hard to believe that we are really children of God. The fact that we can speak something into existence is beyond our comprehension. We should ask God to give us the wisdom to speak what is right on a continuous basis. Let us speak life into every situation and not death. Let us be a blessing to others and not a curse. May God bridle our tongues from saying anything against his Holy Will. May he order our tongues to speak the things that are according to his Holy Will . Let us always be mindful that we are children of God ; we will be held accountable for what comes out of our mouths. I declare and decree that I will speak words that are pleasing to God. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me  and My Family !!!

When a King Speaks

Being Children of God when we speak activates living elements.
Particles are waiting to receive instructions for the next development.

All things that were created are subjected to the Creator’s and his children words.
God’s creation contains many servants created to move when the Creator’s words are heard.

We are a part of a royal priesthood likened to kings.
When we speak, life or death manifestation occurs based on what our word brings.

Let us only speak continuously the things that we desire until it becomes clear.
Let us remember that things are created by things that don’t yet appear.

Actions Speaks Louder than Words

                                                                             
                                                                         
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Sunday February 16, 2014 !!! There is a story of a rabbit that needed a way to cross a river. A snake came by and said,” I will help you cross the river just get on my back.” The rabbit said, ”Oh No , you will eat me.” The snake said,” I won’t eat you, I promise I won’t.” The rabbit believed what the snake said and jumped on the snake’s back to take a ride across the river. When they both reached the other side, the snake  begin to eat the rabbit. The rabbit said,” wait, you promised that you wouldn't eat me.” The snake said,” I know what, I had promised but this is my nature”. We often make the same mistake that the rabbit made by trusting that people will help us by what they say instead of looking at their nature. Let us ask God for wisdom to really see who is for us and who is against us. I declare and decree that I will put my trust in God and lean not to my own understanding in all of my ways I will acknowledge him and he will direct my steps. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family ! With Love from Me and My Family !

Actions Speaks Louder than Words

There are many that profess that they have great love for someone.
But their actions say the opposite by the evil that they have done.

Love embraces opportunities to help and uplift our fellow man,
When one falls down, love is given to help them once again to stand.

Our actions show whether love is artificial or whether it is real.
Love is always on the move; it’s never idle or standing still.

When we say that we love someone our actions should follow.
When this doesn’t happen, it means that our spoken words were hollow.

Let us put actions behind the words to show others that our words are true.
Why should others believe what we say when they can’t see it proven in what we do?

Give Flowers to the Living

                                                                            

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ!!!Happy Saturday (Sabbath) February 15, 2014 !!! Sometimes in life there are so many things that demands our attention that we forget to take the time to set our priorities. We could easily get caught up in doing busy work instead of important work. We should never allow the pursue  of or the maintaining of material things to poison the relationships of our love ones. There needs to be quality time given to our spouses and children on a daily basis. We should always show more appreciation to our relatives while they are alive versus when they pass away. Let us take the time to give flowers to the living so they can receive how much love that we have for them. I declare and decree that I will treasure my relationships with my family above material things. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Give Flowers to the Living

Living flowers can’t replace the pains of regret for not being there.
When our love ones needed us the most, they only saw empty air.

When will we learn to show compassion while our relatives are alive?
Why do they have to suffer alone feeling rejected and deprived?

Are we really that busy that we cannot make a five minute call?
Checking on our relatives shouldn't be grievous but joyful to all.

Let us present our flowers while our relatives’ visions are clear not blurred.
We may be where they are one day; let’s pray that our cries will be heard.

Heavenly Father, Help me Not be Easily Offended

                                                                       
Greeting to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Friday February 14, 2014 !!!
There are many times that our emotions get the best of us. It happens most often when we are hungry, sleepy, sickly, afraid, etc. During these times, we may be irritable or overly sensitive to comments made by others. As Christians, what are we supposed to do to minimize these times? In most cases, we feel irritable because a natural or spiritual need wasn’t met. It is our responsibility to ensure that all of our needs are met. For an example, we can never justify being irritable because we are hungry or sleepy. It is written if we love God’s laws we won’t be easily offended. It is also written that we should pray without ceasing and give thanks at all time.  Let us take the time to fill ourselves with so much spiritual food that we don’t have the time to feed the flesh. In other words, Let us walk in the Spirit so we want fulfill the lust of the flesh. I declare and decree that I will have a grateful heart and walk in the Spirit today. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Heavenly Father, Help me Not be Easily Offended

The enemy has used many people to attempt to disrupt my relationship that I have with you.
When I am easily offended, the battle is lost because I didn’t use your word to follow through.

Father, keep my mind stayed on you so that the peace of God will prevail.
Strengthen me to walk in the Spirit so that any wrong actions will be curtailed.

It is written that if I love your word, I will not be easily offended.
Increase my love for your word so that unpleasant emotions will be prevented.

It is my heart’s desire that I am so one with you that I feel what you feel.
Let this be the day that my emotions remain steadfast and not take me downhill.

Life Passes from One to Another

                                                                              
 Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Thursday February 13, 2014 !!!Life begets life. Death begets death. We who are Christians have the life of Jesus living in us. Jesus is a life giver which means that everything we do should add life to whatever situation that we are in. Building ourselves up with encouraging and uplifting words or music is a way of life for us.  Therefore, we can speak encouraging and uplifting words to others. We must have before we can give. Let us take the time to fill up this day so that we can give out . This is our joyful duty in serving our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. I declare and decree that I will remember who I am in Christ Jesus and serve him whole-heartily by giving life. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Life Passes from One to Another

There is only one way that God chose to spread human life.
He breathe into Adam and Adam was able to give life to his wife.

It took Adam and Eve to give life to Cain.
As life passes to another more life is gained.

Jesus said that he has come that we may have life and have it more abundantly.
Although life is available to all, it can only be transferred strategically.

As we live to fulfill the great commission, let us always remember,
That life must past from Christ through his body to gain a new member.

Heavenly Father, Keep Our Hearts on Fire for Your Kingdom

                                                                           
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Wednesday February 12, 2014 !!! Praying is one the greatest privileges of being a child of God. It is through our prayers that God releases blessings on this earth. We must know that it is impossible to please God without faith and that  every good and perfect gift comes from God. Therefore, if we desire anything good to happen in our lives, it can only come through a praying child of God. If we truly understood the importance and power of praying, we would pray without ceasing. God has a great need for more intercessors to pray so that more of his children would fulfill his holy will. Let us pray that God will rekindle our fire to pray for  ourselves, family, leaders, the body of Christ and the unsaved. Know that it is written that Jesus is living to intercede for us even now. Let us not trivialize this High Calling that God has bestowed upon us. I declare and decree that I will pray without ceasing for this is the will of my Heavenly Father. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love From Me and My Family !!!

Heavenly Father, Keep Our Hearts on Fire for Your Kingdom

Father, our intercessions are needed to keep our brothers from falling.
Our personal trials are distracting us from hearing our brothers’ calling.

Help your children to be wise and not fall for the devil’s tricks.
Bring forth your intercessors that will stand their grounds like concrete bricks.

You have created the enemy to be tenacious with his attacks against us.
Let us be an instrument to help our brother and not be like unused metals with rust.

Father, keep our hearts on fire for your kingdom.
Teach us how to pray; let us not trivialize this freedom.

In Jesus Name, Amen

Hold On- Don’t Give Up

                                                                        
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Tuesday February 11, 2014 !!! In our Christian walk, everyday won’t be sunny. There will be some dark cold days. The trails that we face as Believers are very different from the bad situations that the people in the world face. For Believers have the promise that our expected end will be good. We know that God is at work in perfecting us into the image of Jesus Christ. It is written that we must suffer with Jesus in order to reign with him. During these difficult times, it is necessary that we feed our faith through the word of God, prayer, praise, worship and fellowship with other Believers to be strengthened to endure. Be Encourage, my Friends. Remember that weeping may endure for a night but joy will come in the morning. Also, this too shall Pass. Know that God will never give us more than what we can bare. I declare and decree that I will be patient with God as he perfects me into the image of Jesus Christ. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Hold On- Don’t Give Up

Trials may come so fast in life that it turns us around and around.
While we are trying to get up from one, something else knocks us down.

Our faith, family and finance are under extreme demonic attack.
The enemy is hoping that we will give up so he can take us right back.

This is not the time to surrender when the battle is the hottest.
It is also not the time to turn in all of our weapons and digress.

Hold on and don’t give up must be replayed over and over in our mind.
By keeping our eyes stayed on Jesus, new strength we will find.

Know that diamonds started off as ordinary coals but they had endured extreme pressure.
Likewise, we as Christians must overcome every trail to remain God’s peculiar treasure.

Heavenly Father, Increase my Passion for You

                                                          

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Monday February 10, 2014 !!! Remember, when we first fell in love with someone, we found great joy in thinking and communicating with that person often. How much more God who we profess that we love with all of our mind, heart and soul ?  Our God didn’t create a world in which he wouldn’t be needed in. He takes great pleasure when we seek him. We should always remember that every good and perfect gift comes from him. He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Let us embrace him this day and turn our backs on everything that he hates. Our fellowship with him through Christ should be our greatest pleasure. Let us ask God to increase our passion for him. I declare and decree that I will have no Greater Love than the Love that I have for my Heavenly Father. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. May God Eternally bless you and your family with the knowledge of knowing him !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Heavenly Father, Increase my Passion for You

In a world that seems to be filled with everything except a love for their Creator,
Let me be one of the few who loves you and nothing else in this world Greater.

For you have given me Jesus who has given me life and life more abundantly.
 I give you thanks by surrendering my life to him and living for him intensely.

Father, increase my desire to love what you love and hate what you hate.
Remove my steps from traveling down a crooked road and put me on the one that is strait.

Father, though I love you, increase my passion for more of you.
Let my life be a gift that’s like Jesus and brings honor to you too.

In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen

I Am Rich

                                                                        

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Sunday February 9, 2014 !!!  Sometimes many things can strip us from true fellowship with God. I remember the times in life when I had abundance; I spent less time with God. I was so distracted by getting and keeping things that I couldn’t see that I was losing what really counted in my life.  Only when God allowed me to lose those things could I see that the essence of life was to have an intimate relationship with God through Christ Jesus. I know why the scriptures say let poor say that I am Rich and Let the Rich say that I am Poor. In this since, LESS MEANS MORE. I decree and declare that I will never be Poor Again (poor in relationship with my God) but I will perpetually become Richer and Richer in the relationship that I have with my God through Christ. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family with this type of Richness!!! With Love From Me and My Family !!!

I Am Rich

Silver and Gold are trivial to the treasure that I have got.
A Rich relationship with God to the world; it’s not worth a Lot.

But to God’s Children, giving up the world’s treasure is worth the sacrifice.
To try to maintain things without God’s blessings is never worth the price,

I have found great peace and contentment in knowing the Creator of all Things.
Though they don’t have barns of food, I have discovered why the birds sing.

There is a Joy of knowing that I am always loved and protected in My HEAVENLY Father’s Care,
It is better to be known as the one who knows his God more than the world Richest Billionaire.

God Brings Understanding

                                                          


Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Saturday (Sabbath) February 8, 2014 !!! Sometimes communication with others can become strained. It appears that both parties are seeking to be heard instead of seeking understanding. Our flesh tells us be quick to not listen, fast to speak and fast to wrath. The Bible tells us that we should be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to wrath. Only when we choose to do things God’s way can we have desirable results. It is always top priority with God that we be at peace with all men. He tells us to always seek peace and pursue peace. He never tells us to do whatever we have to do to prove that we are right or attempt to force someone to understand us. Only when we humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand which means follow his instructions that we can receive the peace that he has for us. I declare and decree that I will be peace with all men this day. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!
God Brings Understanding

Like a surgeon, only Jesus can change the heart of a man.
 What may be hard and cold can be bent with a gentle hand.

God can open close eyes with a simple prayer request.
He can bring understanding when others have failed but done their best.

It is futile to try to bring understanding without God’s intervention.
The whole world lies in darkness because of Satan’s domination.

Jesus is the Light of the world without him only darkness remains.
When true Christians intercedes for the lost new grounds can be gained.

With a heart that is fertile, God can plant seeds that will enable man to believe.
Let us pray and ask God to open the eyes and hearts of man so that God’s truth can be received.

Father, Build Me a Bridge

                                                                         

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Thursday February 7, 2014 !!!Most of us have faced challenging time in our finances. These are the times where the bills far exceeded the money that we had to pay them. Even during this time, our God reveals himself to us in powerful ways that we couldn't know if we had abundance. God is always teaching us lessons about himself and his ways. God promises that our needs will always be met. Yes, we may not see them met the way in which we would like but nevertheless they are met. God ways are higher than our ways. We have to trust him to take care of his children completely. Know that if there are four doors in front of us and three are closed God is indicating that he wants us to go through the open door. In Africa, the migrating animals food eventually dries up which is their sign that it is time to migrate to greener pastures. God also gives us signs through our finances. Never question his faithfulness for this greatly offends him. God is Love which also means he is Faithful. Love and Faithfulness goes hand in hand. One doesn’t exist without the other. Let us trust God in every circumstance concerning our finances. I declare and decree that I am a Child of the Most High God: It is impossible for me to lack for anything that I need because it is impossible for God to be unfaithful to his children that loves him. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Father, Build Me a Bridge

What do you when there is not enough money to meet the monthly needs?
Instead of having a normal circulation of finance, there is an open artery that bleeds.

The pain of not knowing if the bill collectors will be satisfied,
Makes a strong integral person ashamed to ask for help but desires to hide.

Why does God put us through this money test that causes us mental fights?
Is he teaching us that we as believers should always walk by faith and not by sight?

Did Jesus have an abundance of money to feel secure about his faith in which he believed?
Was money the source of his power that created many opportunities for him to succeed?

Money is a temporal artificial tool that will vanish one day.
Faith will offer natural and eternal rewards that will not go away,

When there is a gap in what we have and what is needed,
Let us trust God to build a bridge to insure that his work will always be completed.

You Can’t Lose Unless You Quit

                                                                        


Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Thursday February 6, 2014 !!! It may appear that our hopes and dreams will not come to past. There may have been many setbacks causing us to become doubtful of the victory in all areas of our lives. Let us not be discouraged but let us pursue God with a greater tenacity believing that we can’t fail in Christ unless we quit. No matter how dark the situation, we must know that we are already overcomers because we have done the one singular greatest thing possible by living a surrendered life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. When we can’t see or don’t understand our present circumstance, keep believing that God has heard our prayers and is answering them.  He has promised to give us our heart’s desire if we delight ourselves in him. Let us focus on delighting ourselves in him and trusting him in the timing of fulfillment of our dreams or visions. I declare and decree that I will keep fighting the good fight of faith pursuing God with all of my might believing that I will win at the end. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!.

You Can’t Lose Unless You Quit

Start where you are and recommit.
Believe that you can’t lose unless you quit.

For life is full of lessons, it takes time to learn.
You must sow training and practice to reap a return.

You’re not a failure when you don’t get it right the first time.
Be diligent and you will be a master before your prime.

There is only one type of loser that truly exists.
They are the ones who quit on their dreams; they failed persist.

God Can Turn Our Frustrations into a Celebration

                                                                         
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Wednesday January 5, 2014 !!!God will turn our frustrations into a celebration if we follow his plan. There are times where life seems so dark that we have to question whether we are in is will. We must stay focus on the truth that God’s ways are higher than our ways, that God loves us with an everlasting love and that our God will never give us more than what we can bare. We ask God to strengthen us and to do whatever it takes to keep us in his Holy will. God is perfecting us into the image of Jesus Christ. This is a wonderful but yet painful process for the Glory of Our God. Let us be patient with God as he prepares us to receive what he has for us. Know that if we endure to the end our frustrations will turn into a celebration. I declare and decree that I will focus on my promises and not my problems. I decree that the Joy of the Lord will be my strength. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

God Can Turn Our Frustrations into a Celebration

There will be times in our lives that we experience many frustrations.
Unresolved issues arise so often that it appears to have no limitations.

We can either allow tension to build until it creates a tragedy.
Or we can trust God to work things out using his divine strategy.

It is written that God will not give us more than what we can bare.
The God that never sleeps nor slumbers will always be there.

God will give us our heart’s desire if we delight ourselves in him.
Focusing on our problems instead of God’s promises makes our vision dim.

Let us look for God’s hand at work in all of our life’s situations.
Let us trust God to turn our frustrations into a lifetime celebration.

Shake the Devil Off

                                                                       

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Tuesday February 4, 2014 !!! It is imperative that we as Believers do two things as we serve our God. We must first submit to his instructions and we must resist the evil forces that are coming up against us. If we first submit to God’s instructions, we will then have the power to resist the demonic forces. There are many Believers that are feeling defeated because they have not overcome sinning in a particular area in their lives. It is the human nature that believes that we can fix things without following instructions. Only until we realize that our efforts within themselves are frutle against Satan, do we seek additional help. IT TAKES GOD’S POWER TO RESIST EVIL.  Let us no longer justify sinning but let us seek God even more until we get the victory over sin in all areas of our lives. I declare and decree that just as Christ had overcome the world, so will I because he lives within me. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family !!!

Shake the Devil Off

We shouldn’t allow the Devil to tame us like a man riding on a horse’s back.
We should shake him off and defeat him like a general launching a military attack.

For the Devil is not our friend but an enemy that we must resist,
Though we may feel weak and tired now but with God’s power we must persist.

The Battle is not ours but it is the Lord who is fighting it through us.
The devil already has the sinners in bondage; he is now after the Just.

Let’s not get comfortable like playing a game with friends seeing who has the highest score.
Let’s remember that the devil wants us in Hell; life is not a game but it is a war.

Heavenly Father, Let the Mind of Christ be Revealed

                                                                        
Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Monday February 3, 2014 !!! We must guard our thought life with all diligence. Whatsoever a man thinks so is he; therefore, let us take authority over our thoughts so that we can walk in the ways of God. It is vital that we ask God to give us the mind of Christ since we belong to him, we should have one mind with him. How can two walk together unless they both agree? Just like we see the  importance of taking a daily shower, we should have even more of a concern of cleansing our mind of negative thoughts. We need to have a healthy habit of feeding our mind with knowledge that are good, honest and truthful. No one wants rebellious and disobedient children but obedient and discipline children. Likewise, no one should want rebellious and disobedient thoughts but obedient and discipline thoughts. I declare and decree that I have the mind of Christ. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love From Me and my Family !!!

 Heavenly Father, Let the Mind of Christ be Revealed

Sinful thoughts are sinking into my mind because the truth hasn’t been fortified.
These are the lies that I have chosen to accept that my mind hasn’t denied.

Father, remove all of the lies so that I can believe the truth again.
Meditating on the lies instead of the truth is not wise causing me to sin.

I desire to have thoughts that glorify you that are pure and holy.
You are my loving Heavenly Father so I come asking you boldly.

Cleanse me of all thoughts that are not according to your Holy Will.
Let the Blood of Jesus wash my sins so that the mind of Christ can be revealed.

In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen

Greetings to all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ !!! Happy Sunday February 2, 2014 !!! We should be our own best friend in life.  We should do things that will edify our spirit, soul and body. There should be a great sensation to grow in all areas. When we were outside of God’s Will , our future was grim. Since we are followers of Jesus and have the promise of everlasting life, there should never be a reason to be against ourselves. Let us be our own best friend by encouraging ourselves, thinking uplifting thoughts, and building ourselves up to do even greater works for our Lord and Master Jesus. I declare and decree that I love myself and I will do those things that will build me up not tear me down. May God Eternally Bless You and Your Family !!! With Love from Me and My Family.

I Am My Greatest Fan

My Holy God has made me with his precious hands.
With many attributes that comes from him not only man.

My Heavenly Father has made me in his perfect image.
I have a rich heritage: I am from a royal linage.

With a loving heart, he has nurtured me into fruition.
With a listening ear, he hears all of my petitions.

He has a plan for me so grand that I could never understand.
I am honored to be God’s child; I am my greatest fan.
