Power and Authority in Christ are yours. Authority means “the power to determine, adjudicate, or otherwise settle issues or disputes; jurisdiction; the right to control, command, or determine.” What I want to convey in this post is how as a believer, you have authority in the earth to speak to your 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 Read More

Storms: It’s Time to Prepare
Storms are inevitable. Prepare! The National Weather Service lets us know when storms are heading our way. Here in Oklahoma, we get tornado warnings during the spring storm season. Storms come and go. In the natural, we are encouraged to prepare for the storms coming our way. In the Spirit, we should also be prepared for storms. These spiritual storms may not come with heavy rain, winds, flooding, or tornados, but they can be just as devastating. What can we do to prepare? When the weather service tells us storms are coming we should have a plan of escape and Read More
Proverbs 30:5 – WORD UP!
I LOVE GOD’S WORD. Proverbs 30:5 says “Every WORD of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.” Psalm 91 is one of my favorite scriptures. I love every verse. When I think of all the times I have relied on this scripture; believe me, there are too many to count. The recent storms roaring through Oklahoma are a good example of how much I rely on this scripture. We’ve had night after night of tornados, torrential rain, hail, and high winds. I cannot be more convinced that God acts when we speak Read More

Suddenlies: Godly Mushrooming
We are in a season of ‘Godly Mushrooming’ or Suddenlies. Things are speeding up in the natural and in the Spirit. Have you noticed it? The word ‘mushroom‘ has many meanings including ‘an umbrella shaped fungus’. The definition I am using today is ‘to spring up suddenly or multiply rapidly’. The verb form of mushroom is ‘mushrooming’ meaning a sudden, rapid growth. Many species of mushrooms seemingly appear suddenly overnight, growing or expanding rapidly. It’s been so wet and rainy here in Tulsa that huge mushrooms are springing up everywhere; which inspired me to write this post. Take a look at Read More
Be Still and Know That I AM God – Psalm 46:10
Be still and know that He is God. This scripture along with and has definitely been my bread the past month and especially this week. Hurricane Matthew was forecast to hit Florida 10/7/2016. I live in Jacksonville, Florida and we were released from work at 12:00 noon Thursday, 10/6/2016 to prepare for the storm and/or evacuate. I was told so many times to leave Florida and head home to North Carolina or go anywhere. But in my spirit, I had a peace not to be moved. The area I recently moved to in Jacksonville was not one of the areas Read More
