Although I have never had cancer.  I have developed a certain hatred towards it since I got saved.  I hate what it does to our bodies.  It is a big enemy in our society.  Cancer is probably one of the scariest words in our vocabulary today.  Just the possibility of the enemy being in our body is enough to scare somebody stiff.  Cancer is a bully!!!!  I hate that it is attacking so many women today.   The scripture that comes to my spirit is below: Luke 12:4 New King James Version (NKJV) Jesus Teaches the Fear of God 4 “And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. For those suffering right now, with this terrible enemy of our bodies, Jesus gives the comfort in the scripture above.  Cancer may be able to detroy the body, but it can't detroy your soul and it can't detroy God's purpose for your life.  Cancer absolutely cannot steal your purpose....

I have been walking with the Lord for 11yrs now, and I have been blessed to be able to be under the leadership of some really great pastors.  What God has shown me in these years is that each pastor has a different conviction within the Body of Christ.  Each Pastor is endowed with different gifts.  My first pastor, at the church I got saved, one of the major gifts that God used in him was the gift of wisdom.  He seemed to have a special measure of this gift and God used it to build His kingdom within that church body and is still using it. Then there was another Pastor I was under and he was always preaching on holiness.  It wasn't coming from a place where he thought he was "holier than thou".  It was just the conviction the God had given him to build that church on.  He preached about holiness almost every Sunday.  A conviction stronger than that of most Pastors.  That was what God gave to Him. I follow Joseph Prince's Ministry, and God...

I've seen a pattern in my spiritual life,  Everytime there is a major shift in my heart concerning the will of God for my life, the very next day something comes over me where I can't do much.  No matter how much I push myself, I can't seem to get the things done that I would normally get done.  Now I use to think this had something to do with Satan.  But as I spoke with my cousin, I realized that maybe it's God.  It has happened enough times now where it's got my attention.  Normally when you have a major breakthrough in your life, you are ready to hit the ground running, but God's ways are not our ways.  So maybe it's God who quiets me down right after a breakthrough.  Maybe it's the Holy Spirit working in me, so I won't go all haywire in my emotions as a result of what God is doing.  This is just something to think about.  When you see certain patterns in your life that continue to repeat themselves, allow God to help you connect ...

In my daily meditating the scripture that has come to mind is Matthew 25:29 New King James Version (NKJV) 29 ‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. The above scripture has been on my mind, because I tend to shrink back from things.  It seems as I move forward in all the areas God has placed on my heart, it starts to get so big and so much that I back away.  I've been noticing a fade out pattern with me.  I think it starts to happen when I start trying to piece together the "how" in God accomplishing certain things through me.  I think I get a little afraid to pursue all that God has on my heart.  I feel like I have my plate full with 2 children; 5yrs and 10months old, a business with my husband and a beautiful home to keep in order.  I feel like as I keep taking steps forward to do what God has placed on my heart, more comes.  If you read...

The Female CEO of Facebook has written a book called "Lean In" Even though that book is not necessarily for me, the concept is for me as a Christian woman. God has been putting on my heart to "lean in" to what He is doing in my life. "Lean in" to the scriptures He is showing me. "Lean in" to the many blessed roles that He has given me: Child of God, Wife, Mother, Steward of many gifts. The scriptures that I'm leaning into right now are: John 6:53 New King James Version (NKJV) 53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Initially if you hear someone saying that you need to eat of His flesh, and drink His blood; it sounds kind of gross, right? But that's what I love about God. He is so extreme, so intense, so dramatic, so up close and in your face! He is like "don't just look at my flesh and my blood...

The life in you that wants to come out.  The life that wants to be expressed.  For many of us, the life we have living on the inside of us never really makes it to the outside.  The personality that we have living on the inside of us, never really makes it to the outside.  The energy we have living on the inside of us, never really makes it to the outside.  We have motivation on the inside of us that never really makes it to the outside.  The Holy Spirit is trying to birth things that are within us, but we are keeping it locked up inside.  Why????? Because it takes work to give birth, and then you have to pour in to what you birth.  Why do you think so many people opt to not have children.  There is life on the inside of us, and until we allow it to come out of us; we are always going to feel something missing.  We are always going to feel stagnant, as if we are not moving forward.  As if the days are just passing us by.  I...

What if we totally lived guilt free????  It almost seems like an impossible possibility since I've lived with guilt as a companion for so long.  While I don't indulge in guilt as much as I use to,  it is still a force in my life.  One day, the Lord let me know that deep down inside I feel like guilt benefits me in some way.  He showed me that deep down inside that I think guilt is going to beat me into being a better person.  He showed me that guilt does the opposite of what I thought it was going to do.  Guilt doesn not push you into being the person you want to be, it actually paralyzes you from moving foward in the direction you want to go.  Guilt is a paralyzing force.  To live guilt free is not easy, but through God all things are possible.  Get rid of the paralyzing force of guilt in your life. There is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ, Jesus

1 Corinthians 10:13 New King James Version (NKJV) 13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. The Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need. I needed to get with God this morning.  I needed to put my focus on Jesus.  I need not fret, about my week and all I have going on.  I need to just put my eyes on Jesus.  The lover of my soul.  I am part of His flesh and bones and He is surely with me, fighting my battles for me.  He carries me right now in His body.  He is everything I need right now today.  He is my wisdom, He is my strength, He is my energy, He is my guidance, He is my financial provision.  He is my nourishment.  He is my healing.  With allergies running rampant, Jesus is the healing for my children from the ...

I always believe that there are specific areas where God is focused in our lives at any given time.  It's important to tune-in to the Holy Spirit so  you can know where.  It is in that place where God is focused on working, where you will experience His grace.  It's so important not to jump out there and say "Oh, I want to get better at this..." when that might not be where the Holy Spirit is focused right now.  Everything we do, we want to be under grace, not under law.  Meaning we don't want to merely do it because it's the "right thing to do".  We want to do it because the Holy Spirit is leading us.  How do you know what areas those are? The whispers and suggestions of the Holy Spirit will tell you.  Many times if we are spending time with God and cultivating His presence in our lives, we will hear the Holy Spirit making the same suggestions over and over again to us.  The same things will weigh on our hearts.  Being a stay...
