Some, myself included, are lazy in faith. We know we are already healed, but we fail to utilize our faith. Healing is part of our covenant with God. We were healed by His stripes. Notice the ‘were‘; it’s already done (1 Peter 2:23-25). From the Old Testament and throughout the New Testament God continually reveals to us His plan for us to be whole. I know people who are in need of healing, and I pray for them daily. Some of them know they are already healed, and others need a reminder of what Jesus did for us on the Read More

Mindset Mondays: I Don’t IMPLY!
I Don’t IMPLY! Imply means to suggest something without saying it directly. I don’t imply. One of my favorite TV series is The Last Ship. It’s about a navy warship that was sent to help find the cure for a deadly pandemic. The captain of the ship is Captain Tom Chandler. He made a statement to an adversary, and the adversary asked what he was implying. Captain Chandler said, “I am a military man, and I don’t imply!” We need to have that same attitude with the devil. We, too, are military men and women in God’s service, and we Read More
Mindset Monday: Obedience
Obedience is following each phase of God’s instructions. Has God ever told you to hide? In 1 Kings 17:2-4, God told Elijah to go and hide. He gave Elijah specific instructions: Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: Leave here, turn eastward Hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan Drink from the brook Wait for the ravens to bring you food These instructions were not suggestions. If Elijah had chosen to do things differently, he would not have survived. Obedience was the key. When God gives us instructions, we need to be obedient. If we had stopped reading after Read More
Mindset Mondays: Living Intentionally
Living intentionally involves making conscious choices that reflect your values and beliefs. It means being proactive rather than reactive and living with purpose rather than drifting aimlessly. A few months ago, I published a post entitled Next Time: Be Intentional. You can view it here. Since that time, the Holy Spirit has been continually speaking to me about intentionality. We must be constantly aware of our intentions when dealing with people, our finances, our thoughts, our motives, and every part of our lives. God wants us to live intentionally. What does intentionality look like from a Biblical perspective? Living intentionally Read More
Mindset Mondays: The Silent Perspective
Silence is defined as the absence of sound; stillness. I watched a movie the other day called Quiet Place: Day One. It is the third movie in the Quiet Place trilogy. I find the concept of having to keep quiet all the time refreshing. I love quiet times. My daily devotional had this to say about silence: Silence fuels the prophetic gift within you. It is a dimension in the spirit where you can receive revelation from the throne of God. During periods of silence, you learn how to calm your spirit and discern what is happening in the spirit Read More
