God strategically moves and guides us into the correct position. If we study the Word, we find many women whom God strategically placed within their assignment and purpose. Hagar (Genesis 16) was strategically placed to meet God (El Roi) at the well and direct the formation of a nation; Esther was strategically placed in the palace (Esther 7) to save her people from annihilation; Rahab was strategically placed to save the spies as well as her entire household (Joshua 6); Jael (Judges 4,5) was strategically placed to eliminate an enemy, and Ruth (Ruth 4) was strategically placed to give birth to Read More

Purpose: In Passionate Pursuit
Purpose is why you were created. God created each of us with a purpose in mind. Why are you here? You are here because there is a problem you were created to solve. You are probably asking, What problem? How do you discover your purpose? Here are five steps to discovering your purpose: 1. Ask God (). Earnestly pray in line with the Word, asking God to reveal it to you (). God called you to a plan greater than yourself.

Realigning: Proverbs 31 Man
Realigning means changing one’s position or attitude. I read an article today entitled The Proverbs 31 Man. You can read it here. I laughed when I saw the title, but I was intrigued, so I read it. The author made some excellent points, and he is well within scripture (Galatians 3:28) to say both men and women can have that role.

Each and every day, I learn something that helps me grow. I know that just one idea, one divine thought, and one faith possibility that comes my way can transform my life. So, each day, I look for every new idea and every positive thought that will help me become the person God created me to be. And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be [a]transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for Read More
