In Your Weakest Moments

Jul25

Ever find yourself burnt out, stressed out and just not sure what is happening in your life? Ever felt like the weight of the world is upon your shoulders and you have no clue what to do?

There are times that it seems like we hit every brick wall imaginable. There are times that seem like nothing is going right and we become so worried, stressed and plain ol’ worn out. We tend to try and fix things ourselves, just to realize that nothing is working.

The one thing we can always be certain of is that God can be mysterious and unpredictable. We don’t always understand why things are taking so long or why things don’t seem to be going our way – it drains the very strength and life out of us. Making us feel weak, clueless and insecure along the way.

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS…GOD SHINES THE GREATEST WHEN WE ARE AT OUR WEAKEST!

II Corinthians 12:9:  “But He said to me, My grace is enough for you; for My strength and power are made perfect and show themselves most effective in your weakness.  Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ may rest upon me!”

When we feel like we don’t have the strength to go on and we want to give up; the best thing we can do is:  STOP – DROP – THANK

Fall to your knees and tell God that you can’t do it!  Tell Him you can’t go on! Tell Him that you don’t have any more strength! In other words, TELL HIM EVERYTHING and don’t forget to THANK HIM FOR HIS ANSWERS! Then, just let it all go and watch Him do the rest!

God knows what is best. He knows the perfect timing for the amazing “thing” to happen in your life; catapulting you to greater heights. His best is far beyond what we ever can imagine for ourselves. Let Him raise you up and strengthen you – FOR HE IS GOD AND NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM!

Ha, You Can’t Touch Me

Fear - Woman on ChairFear is so prevalent in our world today.

  • The fear of sickness.
  • The fear of someone not liking you.
  • The fear of losing your job.
  • The fear of the unknown.
  • The fear of “what ifs”.
  • The fear of not having enough.
  • Fear of war, diseases and the economy.

There are millions of things you could fear. But, did you know that fear is the devil’s way of keeping you in bondage? When we allow fear into our lives, it can birth into other nasty emotions, such as anger, worry, stress, depression, and discouragement.

We all have moments of fear or doubt. We all face challenges and difficult times. When fear takes grip in your life, you’ll find that you stop doing things you’ve always loved to do. You’ll stop functioning. You’ll stop being the very person you are meant to be. You simply stop living life.

Proverbs 29:25 says: “The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever leans on, trusts in, and puts his confidence in the Lord is safe and set on high.”

God is telling us to lean and trust in Him because we are safe. It doesn’t take a lot of faith or constant prayer. You can simply tell God about the things you are fearing and let them go. Fight the good fight of faith. Boldly declare…IT IS WRITTEN: “greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world”. (1 John 4:4)

God has legions of angels working on your behalf, every moment of every day! AND…He has the most amazing plan for your life that will be bigger and greater than you could ever imagine.

WINNERYou have your provision.
You have your protection.
You have your healing.
You have every single thing you need because God will provide it!

So, relax today and tell the devil…HE CAN’T TOUCH YOU! There is absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing, that the devil can throw at you that God doesn’t already have the answer.

You serve an ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING, ALL LOVING GOD that will never let you down! THE VICTORY IS ALREADY YOURS! YOU TRULY HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR!

Claim God’s Promises

May9

God Always Has Something For YouIt is so easy for us to get caught up in the daily grind. Feeling like there isn’t enough time to get things done. Wondering if things are ever going to change. Knowing deep within that there has to be an easier way. Well, I’ve got GREAT NEWS for you today!

There is an easier way. It’s not what we can do, it’s what Jesus has already done. We just need to understand what that means for us and start claiming it into our lives.

When Jesus paid the price for us, He defeated everything there was that could come against us. But not only that, He opened the door for God’s amazing grace to be available for all those who believe.

Remember why Jesus came in the first place. So that we may have life, and have it to the full, overflowing, and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

It doesn’t matter who you are or what you’ve done. What matters is that Jesus already paid the price. Every written promise in the Bible is available to each one of us. How can I say that? God tells us that the blessings are on the head of the righteous. (Proverbs 10:6) Those who believe in Jesus are the righteous. Because of Him, we are.

When God wanted something done, He spoke it into existence. Isaiah 55:11 – So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.

Every single day, we should be claiming His promises over our lives. Whether it’s fear, pain, lack, depression, finances, or any other area of life, Jesus already provided us the way. All we need to do is find the promises in the Bible that directly relates to our situation and start claiming them.

  • When you feel exhausted and you can’t go on…claim Philippians 4:13 – I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.
  • When you feel all alone and no one cares…claim Deuteronomy 31:6 – Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
  • When you feel sick…claim Isaiah 53:5 – …By His stripes we are healed.
  • When your finances have run dry and you see no way out…claim Philippians 4:19 – But my God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.

God will provide

According to Biblical scholars, there are over 30,000 promises in the Bible. Do you think God cares about you? Every single written promise is available to you today, and everyday. You’re a child of the Most High God. Start claiming His word today and see His mighty, powerful hand come upon you in ways you could never imagine.

Today is your new beginning!

Act like it…Speak like it…Live like it!

For all things are possible for those who believe.

The Healing Power

Jul19

Cast Your CareThis past week, I found myself surrounded in doctors when my mom was rushed to the hospital.  We had no idea what was happening and soon found out that it was very serious.  As more and more tests were taken, fear tried to persuade me that she wasn’t going to make it.  I had a choice to make; either give into the fear or start pleading the blood.

In order for me to take control of the feelings pressuring me to make the wrong choices, I sent a Prayer Call to all of our family and friends on Facebook.  I needed help and in a BIG WAY!  As soon as I hit the enter button, I immediately felt the weight of the world lift off my shoulders.

Right before mom went into surgery, we prayed to the Great Physician; knowing that God is our healer and protector in all situations.  The surgery went well, however, mom had an adverse reaction to the anesthesia.  She found herself unable to breathe and shivering non-stop.  This was not a normal reaction and we came very close to losing her.  Now, during this time, I could have panicked.  I could have given up.  Heck, I could have even started yelling at God.  But, something very different happened instead.

While I’m watching the hospital staff do everything they could to save mom, I found myself speaking in tongues.  I just opened my mouth and uttered whatever it was the Holy Spirit knew I needed.  The more I spoke, the worse mom got.  Then it hit me like a ton of bricks…THE DEVIL IS A LIAR, don’t believe what you see.

Fervently, I kept praying in tongues asking the Holy Spirit to take over the situation because I had no clue what was going on, nor what mom needed.  All of a sudden, mom was breathing and calming down.  It was like the angels surrounded her in God’s amazing healing power.  Within 24 hours, she did a miraculous 360 degree turnaround.  It was one of the most amazing things I have ever encountered.

1 Corinthians 14:2 “For those who speak in a tongue do not speak to other people but to God; for nobody understands them, since they are speaking mysteries in the Spirit.”

Full armor of GodMiracles do still happen!  And I’m here today to tell you that no matter what you encounter and no matter what you see, God is still in the miracle business.  He is still intervening in ways we can’t comprehend.

So, the next time you find yourself under fire and nothing appears to be going right, speak in tongues and watch God’s healing power come to life in your situation.  For He truly is a Loving, Protecting, and Caring Father!
