Panic or pray. Those are two choices we have every day. Today’s weather forecast calls for storms all day; some severe. When you hear those words do you panic or do you pray? As believers, we have authority in the earth to speak to our situation and expect that situation to change as it relates to the Word of God. Mark 11:23-24 says ‘speak to the storms in your life and do not doubt’. In Luke 10:19, Jesus told the disciples “I give you authority over all the power of the enemy (the devil). You have been made kings and priests to Read More

Healed and Whole: Forever Settled
I am Healed and Whole. Healing is part of our divine covenant with God. Exactly 2 years ago to the day, I did a series on healing. It’s time to revisit this topic as we should keep this in the forefront. God is a healing God. In Him we have healing. God has already made a way of escape from any and every sickness which may be moving through this realm attacking whoever it wants to devour; just like our enemy the devil who sneaks around looking for someone who is unprotected to devour (1 Peter 5:8). In Him we Read More
Cracks in your armor: Three ways to seal them
Cracks will appear in your armor from time to time. Our armor protects us from the attacks of the enemy. Where do these cracks come from? How do we become aware of these cracks? How do we fix these cracks? The Word of God admonishes us in Ephesians 6:10 – 17: “Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only Read More
Basics: Transformed and Chosen
Basics are those things which are fundamental in your Christian walk. Prayer, worship, love, faith, and giving. God is telling us to get back to the basics. Over the past few months I have felt like God is slowing things down. He is telling us to SLOW YOUR ROLL. It’s like a skier going downhill and as the momentum of the downward slop decreases, the skier starts to slow down as well. In this season, God wants us to get back to the BASICS of our faith. Spend more time in prayer and worship; increase your love walk (actively love, Read More
Love Above All Else: Anything Else is Useless
Love above all else has been on my heart for the past few months. During this entire pandemic experience I have been asking, ‘Where is the love that we as Christians are supposed to have for others?’ It has been an eye-opening experience watching Christians backbite not only their brothers and sisters in the Lord but others whom we are supposed to love. God never said love only Christians, He said to love everyone. Check out the scripture for yourself: 1 Corinthians 13: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others Read More
We Are Not Alone: Choose HOPE
Choose Hope. As a blogger, I tell stories, whether it’s my story or other stories. When dealing with traumatic events stories allow us to humanize history as people tell their stories. With stories, we can put a face on historic events and make them personal. Stories should activate the senses. What did you see? Broken bodies both large and small and communities torn apart because of hate. I see ashes (human and structural) falling from the sky. I also see resistance. What did you smell? I smelled the smoke of millions burning, the stench of unwashed bodies in rail cars, Read More
