The law doeth but faith speaketh

Faith comes by hearing and hearing comes by the word of God.   People are scared to walk in faith, because they are scared nothing will happen.  As long as we are alive there will be some area of life where there is a trial or challenge.  Zero in on those areas and build up your faith in those areas, by listening to messages from the annointed preaches in your problem area.  See I've always wondered why different preaches seem to have a focus in different areas.  You'll find one preacher might preach about holiness all the time, while another might preach about grace all the time,  then you find preachers that talk about prophecy all the time.  Now, I know why.  These Christian leaders were put in place to deal with the diversity of challenges we come up against in our daily lives.  We need to hear the Word of God to be built up.  Reading the bible is not enough

Romans 10
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”[g]
14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?


We need to hear preaching in the area of our lives where we are currently struggling.  I am in a season of my life where God has me listening to Joseph Prince.  He preaches on grace.  He talks about ceasing from our own works.  I believe everything he is saying.  Some of the things he is saying God has showed me years ago and Joseph Prince is the first person I ever heard saying these things.  He said that as Christian women we are daughters of Sarah.  Sarah was considered a beautiful women even in her extreme old age, so much so that Abraham felt he had to lie to people just so they wouldn't harm him due to his wife's beauty.  Well I've believed for many years that I should get more beautiful as a get older and that is what is happening in my life, but Joseph Prince is the first one who ever put words to what I believe in my heart.  I don't believe that any of God's people are suppose to be overcome by illness.  If you look at the bible, you never hear about any of Jesus's disciples being sick.  In the gospels Jesus has never said "no" when someone has come to him for healing.  I believe that by His stripes we are healed (period).  Do you think Jesus took all that abuse upon his body for nothing.  Joseph Prince spoke about the power of speaking.  He said that those who are under the law doeth.  But those who walk by faith speaketh. He talks about how servants and hired help doeth, but Kings decree (speak).  He has made us Kings and priets.


  1. Revelation 1:6
    and has made us kingsand priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
  2. Revelation 5:10
    And have made us kingsand priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.”

Are we living more like "hired hands" or "kings and priests"?

One of the other things Joseph Prince said is that God does not respond to need, he responds to faith.

Romans 10
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone.  It's not my place.  I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see.  Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest.  I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?".  I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing.  I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern.  The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media.  I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within .  Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. A thou

When we are troubled................

Have you have let the challenges you face, become a distraction for you?  I have! Matter-a-fact, I'm going through it now.  I hate it when I do that, because when you begin to let your heart become troubled about something, it's not long before fear begins to creeps in as well.    Then I feel like it gets hard to focus on the other things you need to focus on, and it's hard to enjoy the blessings that you have.  There is such a ripple effect when you let challenges trouble you.  It leads to distraction, then, fear, then it starts to rob you of your peace, your joy and if you let it, it can completely consume you.  God tells us to guard our hearts with all diligence.  There are 2 things in the bible that God tells us to guard:  Our hearts and our mouths.  We have to watch what we let come into our hearts and we have to watch what we allow to proceed from our mouths.  Even though we don't ignore challenges, it's important we don't let them take up residence in our

The best fight ever...............

Marriage.................................It's not easy.  It is a colorful creation full of ups and downs, highs and lows.  And some desperate times.  It cannot be done without God. It is His invention and only He can navigate you through it.  But marriage is worth fighting for.  You don't always have the energy to fight anymore and that's ok.  It's ok to not be ok.  It's ok to not be ok with your marriage.  It's ok to not be ok with your life.  Just know that not being ok, with your marriage, doesn't mean that it's over.  Not being ok, with your life, doesn't mean that its over.   In the last couple weeks I have struggled with temptations of epic magnitude.  God has seen me in my struggle.  Struggling with my emotions.  Struggling with my desires.  Struggling to stay faithful.  He saw me. He didn't look at me and say "I can't believe you are thinking this".  He didn't look at me ans say "I can't believe you are
