Your past is exactly that, your past. As we say in Pentecostal circles, “It’s Under the Blood”. There are times when we think about our past and we wish we could erase some of the bad and add some good things. There are times when we want to hide who we were and pretend that we were born as someone else. When the enemy approaches you with tales from your past (even if it was just 5 minutes ago), you can say to him, I don’t know what you are talking about. Tell him, it’s under the blood. It’s not what Read More

Praise and Faith: Secrets to Answered Prayer
Praise, thanksgiving, and faith are keys to answered prayer. If you want to receive answers to your prayers be sure to: 1. Praise Him and Thank Him. As we read the Lord’s Prayer we observe Jesus teaching the disciples to begin their prayer with PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING. Psalm 100:4 states, “Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise his name.” Begin by praising and thanking Him for being your provider (Jehovah Jireh); your peace (Jehovah Shalom); your healer (Jehovah Rophe); your shepherd (Jehovah Rohi); and your righteousness (Jehovah Tsidkenu). Praise creates an Read More
Process: Birthing the Promise
Process is needed to birth your Promise. God’s PROMISE far outweighs and exceeds the pain, the push, the rejection, the losses, and the loneliness you experience during the process! Stay Focused, especially during this season in your life. Be still and know that I am God (Psalm 46:10 NIV). God always multiplies your seeds sown in obedience, time, words, deeds and seeds sown monetarily or materially. Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he receive (Galatians 6:7 NKJV). Jesus went through the process of coming to earth as a mere man and dying Read More
God’s Health Care Plan: Divine Healing
Our health care plan is called Divine Healing. From the Old Testament and throughout the New Testament God’s Health Care Plan is revealed. We hear a lot in the news about Obamacare and how everyone needs health care. God has already provided it for us through Jesus Christ. One of my areas of ministry is the Healing Ministry. I love seeing people healed and delivered (Totally made whole). God’s plan of Salvation: Sozo means to save, to deliver or protect (literally or figuratively):—heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole. God was intent on providing for your physical healing as much as Read More
Dayenu: It Would Have Been Enough!
A couple of weekends ago we celebrated Passover and Easter. During our Seder, we recited this prayer called Dayenu. This song tells of God’s faithfulness. After each proclamation in the prayer, we shout ‘Dayenu’ which means it would have been enough (sufficient). I think this prayer has great meaning for Christians as well as Jews. tells us, “His grace is sufficient for us”. Although we did not experience the same trials as the Hebrews, we also have trials which we must face. But we know that His grace is always sufficient for us. We may not have experienced being released from Read More
D-Words: Delays
Last week we learned our first D-Word, Doubts. Our second D-Word is Delays. Unfortunately, delays happen. Our focus scripture is – “But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.” (AMP) Even when you have done everything right, delays happen. We often think that delays in our spiritual life are from the Read More
