Marriage is important to God. We “Christians” are the Bride and Body of Christ and One with Him. So are we as Husband and Wife, One with God with Jesus at the Center, the Core, The Threefold Chord of our Holy Union. Luke 9:23 is a verse I have never associated with what Marriage is and the example of what marriage is until today while praying and thanking God as Greg and I celebrate our 1-Year Anniversary. As you read this verse, think about a husband and wife, especially those of you who are planning and desiring to get married Read More

Speak Love: Tame Your Tongue
SPEAK LOVE. I published a post a couple of years ago entitled “Shut Up: Silence Can Never Be Misquoted.” It is one of my top-rated posts. I think it is time to publish it again. I have been reading comments online about things that are happening at this time in history, and we as Christians need to be careful with our mouths (any kind of commentary). James 3:6 tells us, “A careless or wrongly placed word out of your mouth can do that. By our speech, we can ruin the world, turn harmony to chaos, throw mud on a reputation, Read More
Your BATTLE CRY: Are You Longing for Him?
MY BATTLE CRY!! During my worship time today, I kept coming back to how much we need Jesus. We need Him like a thirsty man lost in a desert. We have to learn to lean on God in times of famine and times of plenty. There will be times when there is not enough; times when there are shortages of food, shelter, and finances. During those times my BATTLE CRY is God lead me. Lead me to those places where You are providing. Lead me to the supernatural provisions You gave to your people during their forty-year journey (Exodus 16:4-5). Read More
Love: Divine Imperative, not a Suggestion
Love is a divine imperative and love requires us to do these things. They are not recommendations or suggestions, they are commandments (mitzvah = commandments or divine imperative). Mitzvah is a morally, divine imperative and obligation to do as God commanded. In Deuteronomy 6:5, God commands, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and with all your soul and with all your strength [your entire being]”. In Mark 12:30-31, Jesus commands us, “and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul (life), and with all your mind (thought, understanding), and with Read More
God Is Speaking: Pay Attention
God is speaking to us right now. If we pay attention, we can clearly hear His voice. Sometimes it’s through friends, other times through enemies. We really need to listen. One missed message from God can cause us to miss something vitally important. Thank God, He is not like me. I do not like to repeat myself. He loves us enough to give us the message several times through a multitude of ways. Have you ever noticed the verses in the Bible that repeat? They repeat because God wants us to pay attention to what they say. Take a look Read More
L.O.V.E
Love is frequently mentioned in the Bible. Depending on the translation, you can find love mentioned between 200 and 600 times. That tells me that God wants us to know all about love. I am not talking about the feeling people get when they think they love someone; I am talking about the God kind of love. The love I am talking about is a verb and requires action. It’s something God commands us to do. Let us love one another () because God is love. On this day when we make an extra effort to let others know we Read More
