Good Morning Sunshine! Are You Moving In Divine Synchronization With God? 

Romans 8:14 ~ “For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.”

Part 2: On yesterday we talked about being in Sync with God and today I want to know if you are moving in divine synchronization with God?

You need to reflect on the importance of walking in rhythm with God and trusting the Holy Spirit as your divine algorithm, that is always leading you towards your truth and purpose for your life. And once you understand the importance of divine alignment, you must also learn how to maintain it in the midst of life’s challenges. There are seasons in life when it feels easy to flow with the Holy Spirit, when doors are open, prayers are answered, and peace fills your heart. But what happens when you feel spiritually out of sync?

What do you do when God seems silent, or when life’s rhythm feels chaotic? The key to staying in step with God is abiding in Him. Jesus tells us in John 15:4-5, to “Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”

Just as a musician must stay in tune with the conductor, or a dancer must stay connected to the beat of the music, you must stay spiritually connected to Christ through prayer, worship, and His Word, even when you don’t understand His timing, you must trust that God is still guiding you. 

Imagine a perfectly choreographed dance, where two partners move in harmony to the rhythm of the music. Each step, turn, and pause is intentional, flowing seamlessly in time with the melody. But for the dance to remain beautiful, one partner must lead, and the other must follow. If both try to control the movements, the dance becomes chaotic, steps are missed, timing is off, and what was meant to be graceful turns into confusion. This is how divine alignment with God works. He is the lead, setting the pace and guiding each step. 

The Holy Spirit is like the music, providing the rhythm and direction. Your role is not to take over the lead but to trust the movement and respond with obedience. When you try to force your own timing and rush ahead in impatience or hesitating in fear, you step out of sync with God’s plan. Just like a dancer who loses the beat, you find yourself stumbling through life, frustrated and unsure. But when you surrender control and allow God to direct you, the movement becomes effortless, the path clearer, and the journey filled with purpose.

True alignment comes when you stop trying to choreograph your own life and instead move in rhythm with the Holy Spirit’s guidance. The dance becomes one of trust, trust that even when you don’t know the next step, God does! Trust that His timing is perfect, even when you feel uncertain. Trust that as long as you remain in step with Him, your life will reflect His divine harmony! 

Ecclesiastes 3:1 reminds us that there is a time for everything. If God is telling you to wait, it’s because He is preparing something greater. If He is pushing you forward, it’s because the moment of release and breakthrough has arrived. But what happens when you stumble? When you make choices that take you off course? That’s when the Grace of God steps in. The Holy Spirit is your divine GPS, it recalculates and redirects you back toward His purpose! It’s never too late to realign yourself with God’s rhythm! All it takes is a yes from you, and a surrendered mindset and an intentional decision to listen, trust, and follow His lead! 

Let’s Pray:

Father, I thank You for being my guide, my source, and my ever-present help, every day. You have orchestrated a perfect rhythm for my life, yet I confess that I often try to move at my own pace, and sometimes I even try to rush ahead, anxious to see results, I repent and ask You to forgive me, please. And Father forgive me for when I hesitated to move or was, afraid of what’s next. But today, Father I choose to trust You. Father, help me abide in You daily and to keep my heart sensitive to the leading of Your Holy Spirit, that I may not miss the moments You have divinely appointed for me. Father, when life feels chaotic, remind me that You are still in control. When I feel out of sync, help me realign my steps with Yours. Forgive me for the times I have tried to lead the dance instead of following You. I surrender my plans, my timing, and my fears into Your hands. Teach me to listen for Your voice, to move when You move, and to rest when You call me to wait. Let my life be a reflection of Your perfect rhythm, a testimony of what it means to walk in step with You. Father, Thank You for Your patience, Your Mercy and Grace, and Your unending love. Father, I trust You to lead me forward in Your divine timing, knowing that every step with You is a step towards Your Presence, and my purpose and peace. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! Keep In Sync With God!

Galatians 5:25 (NIV) ~ “Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.”

Your life has a rhythm, a divine cadence orchestrated by God. When you walk in step with Him, you encounter His Presence, peace, purpose, and power! However, when you operate outside His timing, either by rushing ahead in impatience or hesitating in fear, you can find yourself out of sync with His perfect Will.

Consider how Jesus lived, He never hurried, yet He was never late! He moved in perfect alignment with the Father’s Will! Whether in ministry, prayer, or rest, Jesus maintained a sacred rhythm! He invites you to do the same, to walk in step with Him rather than striving in your own strength.

Walking in step with the Holy Spirit requires you to give God a yes, and to surrender. It means allowing God to be the orchestrator of your movements, guiding your pace and direction. The more you trust Him, the more you flow in the divine harmony that He set in place for you to experience the joy of walking with your Lord and Savior every step of the way.

The Algorithm of the Holy Spirit; imagine a skilled programmer designing an intricate algorithm to guide users toward their best outcomes. This algorithm learns from past mistakes, corrects wrong turns, and gently redirects users when they stray from the intended path. It offers suggestions, prompts reminders, and even blocks harmful choices, all to ensure the user reaches their intended destination safely and successfully.

Now, consider how the Holy Spirit functions as God’s divine algorithm in your life. Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would be your Helper, your Guide, and your Teacher, leading you into all truth (John 16:13). Like a perfect, all-knowing algorithm, He operates with precision, always working in the background of your life, orchestrating divine appointments, warning you of danger, and nudging you toward righteousness.

When you walk with God, the Holy Spirit customizes His guidance uniquely for each one of you. Some paths require detours to build character, while others are direct routes leading to blessings. Yet, even when you make a wrong decision, the Holy Spirit is there to recalculate you, just like a GPS, creating a new path to bring you back into alignment with God’s perfect Will. Isaiah 30:21, “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.”

But just like with any algorithm, your input matters. If you ignore the Holy Spirit’s prompts or fill your heart with distractions, you may not hear His voice clearly. However, when you seek God through prayer, Scripture, and obedience, you allow the Holy Spirit’s algorithm to work at its fullest, producing wisdom, peace, and divine direction.

In the end, the Holy Spirit’s goal is not just to get you to the right place but to transform you along the journey. Every correction, every conviction, and every whispered encouragement is designed to shape you into the image of Christ. When you trust His leading, you will experience the joy of walking in God’s divine flow, knowing that the algorithm of the Holy Spirit will always lead you to truth, purpose, and eternal life.

Let’s Pray:
Father, I come before You acknowledging that my steps are often misaligned with Yours. Sometimes, I rush ahead, impatient for answers. Other times, I drag my feet, fearful of the unknown. But today, Father, I surrender my rhythm to Yours. Father, teach me to move at the pace of Your Spirit. When You say “wait,” give me patience. When You say “go,” give me courage. Let me not be consumed by my own plans but instead be sensitive to Your divine direction. Align my heart with Yours so that my desires reflect Your Will. Like an algorithm designed to lead users to the best outcome, I trust that Your Spirit is guiding my steps for my good and Your glory. When I go off course, redirect me. When I face uncertainty, be the voice that whispers, “This is the way, walk in it.” Help me to quiet the noise of the world and tune my ears to Your voice. Father may my heartbeat in sync with Yours, my steps ordered by Your wisdom, and my faith anchored in Your promises. Thank You for leading me with love and grace. I declare today that I will walk in rhythm with You, trusting that every step with You is a step toward purpose, joy, and divine fulfillment. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! Stay In Step With The Spirit Of God!

Galatians 5:25 AMP ~ “If we [claim to] live by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also walk by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage—our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit].”

Keeping in step with the Spirit is not about striving in your own strength. It’s about yielding to God’s power working in you. As Jesus said in John 15:5, “Apart from Me you can do nothing.” When you rely on the Spirit, He equips you to live lives that reflect God’s love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).

I want to tell you a story about staying in step. “There was a young lady who loved to run track. Every morning, she would lace up her shoes and hit the trails, she found peace in the rhythm of her footsteps. One day, someone suggested she run with a partner, one with more experience to help her improve her form.  As they began to run together, she noticed that her pace was steady and disciplined, and she wanted to run ahead, and leave her. And every time she did that the other runner, would call her out, “Stay with me and Trust the rhythm.” So, she slowed down, but she wondered how she could ever reach her goal by running at this pace. After weeks of running together, she began to see a Shift. (When you follow God and not you, you will start seeing the Shift.) Her breathing became easier, her strides stronger, and she finished her runs more energized than exhausted. She realized that the steady rhythm had been guiding her all along, helping her move with precision rather than wasting energy on her own scattered efforts.”

I told you this long story just to say this to you! This is how you Walk in Step with the Spirit! Stay the pace even when you feel tempted to run ahead. For when you Trust the Spirit’s leading, you stay aligned with His timing, for He will bring strength, endurance, and peace to your journey! God is calling you to not rush ahead or be impatience or to hesitate in fear but to walk closely by His side, trusting His perfect pace. As Psalm 37:23 reminds us, “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him.” When you stay in step with God, your path may not always feel fast or easy, but it will always be right. Staying in step with the Spirit of God requires intentionality on your part.

Staying in sync with the Spirit isn’t always easy, but you can do it when you let Him set the pace and you follow. There are so many distractions in this world, the busyness of life, and the pull of your own desires can make you drift off course. That’s why Paul also reminds you in Romans 12:2, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” When you renew your mind in God’s Word and spend time in prayer, you are recalibrating your steps to align with His. It’s a conscious choice to start your day seeking Him, and His plans, it’s your place of surrender and trusting that His wisdom far exceeds your own. It means being sensitive to His whispers in your heart, nudging you to show love, grace, kindness, patience, or forgiveness, even when you feel like it is inconvenient or undeserved.

Consider the relationship between a shepherd and sheep. In John 10:27, Jesus says, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” The sheep who follow closely behind their shepherd are safe and secure, walking the best path for their well-being. The same is true for you when you follow the Spirit’s leading. He guides you away from danger, redirects you when you stray, and leads you to the abundant life God has prepared! Keeping in step with the Spirit requires you to show up for yourself each day and begin in praise, prayer, and worship and inviting the Spirit to guide your thoughts and actions, and by spending time in God’s Word to build a foundation for you to recognize His voice!

Create moments of stillness in your daily routine to hear His gentle whispers and be quick to obey when He nudges you, even if it challenges your comfort zone. Surround yourself with a community of believers who encourage your faith and challenge you to grow spiritually. Reflect on areas where you may be tempted to run ahead of the Spirit in impatience or lag behind in fear. Ask yourself if there are places in your life where you’ve tuned out His guidance and take practical steps to deepen your sensitivity to His leading. These small, consistent actions can help you realign your life with the Spirit’s rhythm and experience His peace and Presence daily!

Walking with God requires more than occasional obedience; it’s about a daily rhythm, a continuous connection to His Spirit. When Paul encourages you, the believers to “keep in step with the Spirit,” he is describing a picture of a lifestyle of surrender and submission to God’s divine guidance, Will, Presence, and to be aligned to His purpose! It is about letting the Spirit guide your steps in every aspect of your life, your thoughts, your decisions, and your actions. Imagine a marching band where each marcher is in perfect sync. The beauty lies not in individual talent but in collective unity with the drumbeat. The Holy Spirit is your divine conductor, setting the rhythm of your life. Yet, how often do you try to march to the beat of your own desires instead of yielding to God’s gentle leading? Get your steps together and follow God!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Father, thank You for the gift of Your Spirit, who gives life and guides my every step. Forgive me for the times when I’ve followed my own plans instead of seeking Your will. Help me to tune my heart to Your voice and to remain sensitive to Your direction. Transform my desires so they align with Yours. Lord, fill me with Your Spirit so that I may bear fruit that brings glory to You. Father, teach me to trust You more deeply, even when I don’t understand the path ahead. Keep me grounded in Your Word, and let it be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105). Surround me with godly counsel and encouragement, so that I can walk steadfastly in the way You’ve called me. Help me to remain patient when I’m tempted to run ahead and courageous when I feel like I’m falling behind. Father, Thank You for walking beside me, for going ahead of me, and for working all things for my good and Your Glory! Father, may my life be a reflection of Your Spirit at all times, living in Your peace, sharing Your love, and glorifying Your Name is where I want to be found! In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean
Have A Blessed Weekend…

Good Morning Sunshine! Listen Up, God Is Going To Give You Instructions For The Day!

Isaiah 50:4-5 MSG ~ “The Master, GOD, has given me a well-taught tongue, So I know how to encourage tired people. He wakes me up in the morning, Wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders. The Master, GOD, opened my ears, and I didn’t go back to sleep, didn’t pull the covers back over my head.”

It’s morning time, time to rise and shine, it’s time for you to get up and open your ears, for it is time for you to have your first conversation of the day with your Father! Have you ever wondered why regular school starts in the morning? Do you remember when you went to school? Class was early in the mornings! The reason why, this is best time of day, you are alert, focused and ready to learn something new. Your teacher was prepared to enlighten you and encourage you to do better and to be better, he or she was consistent in doing the same thing every day, so that you could get it in your head and heart, and not just to memorize it for one day but to learn it for your life’s journey!

There is a book called, “All I really need to know, I learned in kindergarten.” (By Robert Fulghum) it says that you, “learned how to share, play fair, clean up, work hard, say you’re sorry, you learned how to wash your hands before you eat and after you used the bathroom, you learned how to learn, live, think, draw, paint, write, sing, dance, and rest! Now, think about it, you still do all of these things now! Well, your Father wants to teach you even greater things, but you have to do three things first, wake up, get up and listen up! It is what you hear that you speak! (Think about the words that you want to come out of your mouth? It starts with what you take into your ear gates, it then goes to your head and to your heart. Pay attention to what you take in, because it will come out!) This is why you must ask God to instruct your tongue!

Well, this is what your Heavenly Father is offering you every day, morning by morning when He blesses you with a brand-new day, one that you have never seen before. He wants you to receive instruction from Him, just as you received it from your natural teacher, you should receive even greater knowledge from your Lord and Savior! You are now hearing from the One that created you and He’s teaching you, and it’s taking place early in the morning, (I know that you have heard this before, “the early bird catches the worm!” Same thing applies to you, catch the Word of God in the morning so that you will know what to say, your tongue will be instructed by God, your speech seasoned with salt, and in the noonday, you will become pregnant with the Word of God and give birth to a Harvest in the evening!) He wants you to hear Him and hear Him clearly day after day! For what He gave you yesterday was for yesterday and it won’t work for today, so what He has for you today you must rise up in order to receive it, open your ears and eyes that you may hear and understand what He’s saying to you!

I love early mornings with God! What about you? Let me tell you, the more time you spend with God in the morning, the wiser you get, and the better you will be. There is nothing that can compare to being in the Presence of the Lord! It soothes everything that is in you! Spending time with God early in the morning, is how you build a strong and secure relationship between the student (you) and the Savior (The Teacher)! The Word of God is given to you, to help you remember who God for every season and chapter of your life, His Word has sustaining Power to keep you and to help you when you are tired and weary, remember His Word tells you, don’t get weary in well doing (Galatians 6:9). You can’t be rebellious in this place, you’ve got to be ready and obedient to do, hear, receive and speak the Word with understanding and clarity. If you don’t take the time to be taught correctly, then how can you share His Word with anyone else, you must first learn how to follow before you can lead! Be Teachable, so that you can hear and receive instructions from God!

Be Available, so that when God speaks to you, you will know how to encourage someone else with the same Word that He taught you with; and then Be Faithful, get up every morning with your God on your mind, go into Worship with Him, spend some quality time in fellowship, so that you may Hear a Word, Share a Word and Receive a Word in this Season to make you a better servant for the Savior! Today, there is nothing standing between you and Him, no priest, no protocol, just you and Him, the curtain has been torn and removed, and your way is clear to meet your Father face to face! Now you can just go to Him, He’s waiting on you, He would like to have an audience of one with you! It’s in this place that you will be given an instructed tongue that will lead, guide, direct and sustain you. God woke you up on purpose this morning and He has opened up your ears that you may hear, this is not the time to lean on your own understanding, but to trust Him. This morning He has opened up your ears to hear and listen like one being taught by Him! Oh what lessons you will learn today, when you come into the Presence of your King first thing in the morning!

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You! Thank You for waking me up this morning into a new day of learning and sitting at Your feet.  Father thank You for all of the Tuesday’s that You have given me in 2024, for there are only 2 more Tuesday’s left, help me to be wise and obedient to what You want me to do. Father, Thank You for giving me Your Words of wisdom and instructing me on how I should move, speak, be still, and learn today. Thank You Father, for speaking to me and through me and giving me revelation of Your Word! Father, today I will share what You teach me, and I will speak what You tell me to say to those who are tired and weary, that they may be encouraged and receive Your guidance and instructions for a better day. In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! The Wind Of God Is Blowing Your Way, Welcome It In!

John 3:8 ERV ~ “The wind blows wherever it wants to. You hear it, but you don’t know where it is coming from or where it is going. It is the same with everyone who is born from the Spirit.”

You are born of the Spirit of God, and when He blew His breath in you, you became alive! And it’s not just the wind of God, but the Breath of God. The wind comes from the outside, and His Breath is from the inside, healing you from inside out! He is breathing on you and in you, do you feel it? Today, you are entering into a very distinct season of wind blowing and it’s making one sound, pray and ask God to show you how to “Hear and Ride the Wind!” God is shifting the wind for you, embrace it!

God is looking for atmosphere changers today, will you be the one, will you let His Holy Spirit lead you into producing the change? A change that brings His Spirit, with you wherever you go producing all of the fruits of the Spirit for others to see. God is shifting the wind for you, ride the wind of increase and blessings, ride the wind of wisdom and discernment, ride the wind of love and peace, and ride the wind of change and courage. For when you are connected to God, He will give you the endurance to ride out the wind of adversity and challenges for His Glory! When you ride the wind, you are in a Holy-Ghost flow, and you will gain mass momentum and speed! This is your place, that sweet spot where you have supernatural favor with God and man!

When the wind blows, a shaking is taking place, you can feel the breeze even though you can’t see it, just know that the Holy Spirit is up to something big in you and you will be in awe of what God is doing in you and through you, there’s a shaking and shifting in your atmosphere, so go with the flow! For thus says the Lord of hosts: Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land;) 7) and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with glory,’ says the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:6-7.

You are a Spirit, born of God, and you cannot live in your head, you must listen to your heart. You have to determine in your hearts that you are going to listen to God and ride the wind of the Spirit of God no matter what, no matter what the naysayers say and no matter what the devil says, you are only listening for the one sound that the wind of God is making! When you go into pray, you need to know without a shadow of doubt that prayer changes everything and something happens in the atmosphere when you pray, (emphasis on the you), a shifting is taken place. Jesus is changing your atmosphere today!

I want you to pray for discernment on what the Holy Spirit is breathing in you and go with that flow. When you learn how to discern the grace of God and what’s taken place, you will tap into the winds that are shifting you in your atmosphere, even if you can’t see it yet, things are turning around, and you will be free! This is your place, that sweet spot where you have supernatural favor with God and man! When He enters the room, He’s filling it up with light and you will be changed from the inside out, He’s that Powerful!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Thank You for Your Breath and Your Wind! Father, help me to embrace the sound, the shifting and the blowing of Your wind in my life. Father, help me to be a change agent in whatever atmosphere that You send me in to today, and I’ll go in Jesus Name, Father I give you my yes today. Father, help me to be ready to receive the blessings that You have for me in this place. Father, no matter where I go today, I will follow You and Your Wind and Word, and I want you to strive to be the atmosphere changer through power of Your Anointing and direction. I will be the light because of Your Breath in me. In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Blessings…

Good Morning Sunshine! It’s Time For Class, And Your Teacher The Holy Spirit Is In Today!

John 14:25-26 NLT ~ “I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. [26] But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative-that is, the Holy Spirit-he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.”

Are you weary? Tired? Can’t sleep? Have a dozen and one deadlines to meet? A ton of things to do and to fix? And to top it off, you have taken on someone else’s responsibilities also, with your problems and their burdens and they expect you not to complain or grow weary or get tired in the process? But after a while you start to realize that you are carrying too much baggage and luggage, and you need to lighten your load. As I thought about everything that I carry this scripture came to me, Matthew 11:28, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

It’s like this, have a scripture ever just came to your mind and when you read it, you had read  and to re-read it again and again, because you knew it was just what you needed to hear, and at that moment, you could see the light, and this is what happened when I read Matthew 11:28 again, the “Come to Me” got my attention! Did you hear that, Jesus said, “Come To Me!” It was at that moment that I realized that I hadn’t given everything over to God, like I said. Please give this stuff over to Him. I was weighing myself down trying to be everything for everyone at all times.

Have you ever done any of the stuff above! This scripture became the ointment for my soul, and when I truly processed these three words that Jesus said, “Come to Me” my load got lighter and the burdens of my heart rolled away, this is just like God, He is the greatest of Great Teachers, for His word says bring it to me and let me help you. Matthew 11:29-30, “Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. [30] For my yoke is easy and my burden is light!” Do you need some help today, take it to Jesus, there is enough ointment for you, the Word of God is Ointment for your soul that only He can give you!

When you are going through something do you wonder how a scripture comes to your mind? Your Teacher, The Holy Spirit, reminds you. The Holy Spirit has one specific mission, and that is to teach you a valuable lesson! Your Father in Heaven knew that you would need some help, so He sent you someone to help you and, to teach you all things, and He will remind you of everything that He has said. This is not just good news; but this is Great News!

The Spirit of God has been and will always be present and moving in your life, teaching, leading and guiding you. When you Come to Him, you will find all the revelation that you need. God has entered into His classroom, and He is ready to teach you, the question is are you ready to learn from Him? Matthew 11:29! He will reveal Himself to you and teach you everything that you need to know, plus something new and wonderful, things that you have never seen before!

Today, don’t fret, you are not alone in this place, Psalm 34:7. Thanks be unto God, you have a Divine Helper, an Instructor, The Holy Spirit, who is here to help you come through all the situations and challenges that you will face today, you just have to let Him have His way in your life! Today, let the Holy Spirit in, begin your day with these words “I Welcome You, Holy Spirit!” And then make a conscious decision to walk in it all day long, since you are supposed to live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit through His Word, (Galatians 5:25, NIV).

Let the Spirit of God invade your heart and your mind that you might be full and let the Word fill you up to overflow every moment of this day, so that when you have to answer a question, you can ask the Lord to direct you, and He will give you the right response! Don’t burden yourself down by not giving it all to Him, somethings are just too heavy for you to carry day in and day out, Matthew 11:30! The Lord knows, so take the balm that He made for your soul and use it wisely!

Let’s Pray:
Good Morning Father, Thank You for this beautiful Thursday! Today, I choose to operate with the mind of Christ that You have made available to me. Father, incline my ears to hear You speak as I enter this new class today with You. Thank You for teaching me how to cast everything on You, and for You leading me by Your Holy Spirit. Father, thank You for teaching me how to live and love like you. Thank You Father, for bringing every word and prayer that I need back to my remembrance when I need it. Thank You for showing me which way to go, I will follow Your directions. Romans 15:13, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! The Glory Is In The Jar! 

2 Corinthians 4:7 ~ “But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us.”

You have been given a gift from God, and it is to be used for the good of others and for the Glory of God, that’s it, plain and simple! And because of the Glory you should be compelled to do good for God! And because of the gift on the inside of you, you will be persuaded to do your best at whatever you do because of the Glory of God that is on the inside of you! 

So how do you show that you are responsible for the gift? The evidence lies in the Word of God that you embody due to your encounter with Him. Experience has taught us that we are all different, but the Glory of God is the same for all of us! For it is God who creates and sustains the world and everything in it including you and me. You have a responsibility to thank and honor God in the way that you use your abilities that He gave you, not only for God’s honor, but also for the good of those around you! You are totally responsible to use the gift that God gave you for His Glory! 

The Word of God says, “As each has received a gift, employ it for one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace . . . Whoever renders service, as one who renders it by the strength which God supplies, in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 4:10-11. These two verses should be your standing scriptures as you do the work that God called you to do! See God’s Hand at work, you received a gift, God is gracing you with the ability to complete it, but you have to do your part, it’s your job to employ it, and who are you doing it for, it’s for the good of others and for the Glory of God! 

This should be personal for you; God has put a gift on the inside of a clay jar for His Glory! Don’t miss this special manifestation of God’s Grace in you which can help other people in their life of faith and will honor God all at the same time! The gifts are not just for the pastor, the minister, the prophetess, this is for everyone, this includes you, for you are a part of the body of Christ! There are no exceptions! You have been given a gift from God, and you are not to let it just sit there and you pray for it to go away, it’s not going anywhere, stop being negligent with His Grace! 

You and only you are responsible to use your gift for the good and the glory of God. God called you to be a good steward over His gifts, you need to move past your name and title and embrace who you are, a Servant! God is not coming back to get names and titles, He’s coming and calling for the servant, that’s all! God is stirring the gifts up in you, they are calling out to you, it’s time to use what’s in your jar! He made the clay, and He fashioned you in it and He poured His Glory all over it! 

Have confidence in the Glory not the jar, be confident in this one thing, you have the Holy Spirit on the inside of you! For you are not sufficient in and of yourself, but your sufficiency comes from God, who has qualified and equipped you for that gift and talent! Rely on The Word, rely on the Spirit, for your gift is from the Spirit; and there is Power in the Spirit; and therefore, the fruit you produce is the life of the Spirit. You are not left to yourself and your own sufficiency, but to the One and Only Sufficient One, God! 

This treasure that has been put inside of you, has been designed by God Himself, to show you that all Power belongs to God and not to you! How God see you is so different from how the world views you. The world stresses out the clay pot (you) and the Glory of God contains the pot (you) that you remain intact and don’t crack under the stress of your weakness! If there is one thing that you could learn from these devotions it would be, that everything and I mean everything is for God’s purpose and His Glory! For this determines how you do all things. 

God’s purpose is to make sure that you see that all Power belongs to Him and not to you. So, He puts His treasures in clay pots like you and me to take His gifts and His Gospel into the world! You think that you are ordinary and that you don’t matter, you do, it’s because of ordinariness that God wants to use you, this is an asset and not a liability; for this is how God gets the Glory! There is nothing about you that is common, you are complete just like He made you, you are just the right clay pot to be used for this job! God has anointed you (the pot) with everything that you need to be successful for Him! 

Let’s Pray: 

Father, Thank You! Father, You are the Master Potter and I’m the clay, have Your way! Break me, mold me, shape me, do whatever You want to do to make me what you want me to be! Father, I repent for trying to fight against the pressure of Your Hands while You were shaping me, I will be still and obedient as You work. Thank You for reminding me of Your gentleness as You work on me and in me! I thank You Father that You see beauty and purpose in my mess, and You delight in bringing out the best in me so I might be filled up and used for Your Glory. Father soften my heart as You shape and mold me, smooth out my rough edges that I may be just like You want me. Father may I embrace the work of Your Hands upon my life, may I embrace the heat of the kiln’s flames that completes the work. Father Help me trust the process and know that the final process will be perfect, unbreakable, unrepeatable, (an original) and uniquely made by You and for You, for I will fulfill the plans You made for me. Fill me and use me, for I am Yours, Father, I am Your beloved son and daughter. Use me for Your Glory and for their good! 

Blessings…

Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! The Breath Of God Is What Causes You To Understand!

Job 32:7-8 ERV ~ “I thought to myself, ‘Older people should speak first. They have lived many years, so they have learned many things.’ [8] But it is the spirit in people, the breath from God All-Powerful, that makes them understand.”

The Word of God is God-breathed! And it is necessary for you to understand this and to receive knowledge from God in order to move, live and function in this world! It is the Spirit of God on the inside of you that gives you understanding, not your age or experience!

God is breathing in you and on you today, do you feel it? You are being inspired by the only One who can teach you any and everything! In order to understand, you need the Spirit of God to breathe in and on you!

And since you know that you are only here today because of His breath and Him breathing in and on you, you should want to worship Him! I mean how different would your life be if you began every day with the thought of God, the One who has given you this day to glorify Him in worship, for you said that He is your Lord and Savior, right, (then act like it) for He is Great and Greatly to be Praised!

When your Almighty Father breaths in you and on you daily, He inspires you with His Word, which gives you wisdom, knowledge and understanding. And you know that the Word of God is given by His inspiration, and it’s profitable for everything that you need in order to do good a work for your Father who sent you! (2 Tim. 3:16-17)

Your spirit is to bear witness to the Spirit of God that you are His child, (Romans 8:16.) This is the coming together of God’s Spirit and your spirit man, confirming that you have been saved and breathed on by the Grace of God! God’s Word is now your daily bread, and it is your source of constant nourishment, day in and day out! Because outside of His Word there can be no understanding or knowledge, there is nothing that you can do apart from Him and His Spirit!

Today, pray with a spirit of gratitude, for the Spirit of God being upon you, thank Him for all of His gifts that He has breathed in you! Every day ask Him to open your eyes and mind to understand His Word better, then ask Him to daily lead and guide you by His Holy Spirit and according to His Word!

Let the Ruach of God, The Breath of God, fall fresh on you as you follow Him today!

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You! Father, breath on me today, that I might be inspired by You and Your Word! I thank You for Your God Breathed Word! Father, help me to pray and to meditate on Your Word Day in and day out. Father, I want to be led by Your Holy Spirit each and every day of my life, help me to be mindful and careful, to do everything according to how and what You say! Father, my desire is to live by Your Word, Wisdom and Way and to Worship You daily for breathing life into me one more day, I’m grateful, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! Do You Want To Be Filled With The Wind Of The Holy Ghost? Or Are You Just Full Of It? 

John 3:8 NIV ~ “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So, it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” 

Acts 2:1-2 NKJV ~ “When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.”

I was listening to a sermon by Kevin Wallace, and it let a fire under me as he gave the analogy of the box fan and the Wind of God! You do know what that is correct? It’s a fan made like a box and if you ever went to your grandmother’s house as a little child you know exactly what it is! This fan could cool a whole room in the evening, and the sound it made is one that will always be a memory for you. In this sermon, Rev. Wallace could not find the fan, but he had an app that sounded like a fan! But no wind! This app was a counterfeit for the original. I mean, sometimes all it takes is the appearance of something being real, and we will take this and run with it! The thing with this counterfeit, it sounded good, it may have even looked good, but there was no evidence of the wind! 

As for you, when you try and perpetuate as a Christian, you look good, you sound good, but there is no evidence of change in your life, there is no fruit! (Matthew 7:20, “Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”) Fake and phony can never replace real and authentic, no matter what you do! When you have the real Holy Ghost in your life, you will fill the wind of the Holy Ghost upon you! And this means that you have consecrated yourself before God and you are choosing to live a Holy and Righteous life! 

As you have been consecrating yourself this week and going through the sanctification process, I want to know if you need a revival in your soul? If your answer is yes, ask God to let His Wind blow upon you, for when the wind the blows, there will be movement. For the Holy Spirit is like the wind and when the Holy Spirit blows into your life, something has got to change! Wind cannot be seen, but the effects can be felt and hear, just like the Holy Spirit, you can’t see but you know it’s there. You can feel the effects of His Presence and His Power. For on the Day of Pentecost, the sound filled all the house where they were sitting, and the wind of God cover each one of them right where they were!

As you consecrate and sanctify yourself before God, you will feel the Anointing of God, fall all over you like a Mighty Rushing Wind, blow wind blow! When the Holy Ghost, comes in the Room, it brings deliverance to the room and it sets the captives free, (Luke 4:18)! This is freedom like you have never known or felt before! When the wind blows, it will remove the silence out of you and expose what you have been trying to cover up! No longer will you be bound, and your soul will be saved, (Galatians 5:1)! When the wind of the Spirit of God blows upon you it blows life back into you again, and you will no longer lack Power from on High! 

For when the Wind of the Holy Spirit blows on you, it will cause your vision to come alive with the life of God! Now if you like your quiet and quaint relationship with God, you are in for some noise, because you see when the Holy Spirit’s Wind blows, it is not going to be a quiet affair. It is going to be a powerful force that brings sound and sweeps downward from Heaven like the roaring of the sea!and your fruit will be seen by others after the wind blows! 

Think about the wind and breath of God like this, when God formed man, He formed him perfectly, but he wasn’t alive until God breathe life into him (see Genesis 2:7)! So, you see you were lifeless until God breathed His breath of life in you! Just like when the Church was assembled on the Day of Pentecost, it had no power until the Holy Spirit was breathed into that place. The Wind came in loud and exploded upon everyone that was gathered there, and the Power of God came upon all of them and they all were empowered by that Mighty Force of Wind! 

You see it was at that moment of the wind blowing that the exchange changed, and the Holy Spirit moved in! You see the Holy Spirit brings change like the wind! Did you know that energy is produced by the wind blowing and when the Holy Spirit moves in this manner, He supplies Supernatural Energy that will empower you to do what you could not naturally do on your own, but now you can since God has blown His Supernatural Wind of His Holy Spirit on you! 

I want you to know that you cannot fake this! Either you are filled with the Anointing of the Holy Spirit, or you are just full of it like the Fan App! You look good and sound good, but there is no power in you and it is evident by your lack of fruit that you are producing, (John 15:4)! When the Holy Spirit comes in, He’s like a whirlwind shaking loose that which needs to fall from you, something in you is about to change! And this is not a fake it until you make it moment, this is real! Get real before God, He’s waiting for you at the Altar of Consecration! Do you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit or just be a form? Today, you need to really look at yourself and see what the wind needs to blow away so that when the Wind of God blows on and over you it will be able to settle in and become established in you! 

Let’s Pray: 

Father, I thank You for the blowing of the Holy Spirit that came to empower me and to make me alive in You and to represent You well on the earth! Father, I’m asking You to blow Your Wind upon me, upon my family, my church, my job, my neighborhood, my city, my state, my world and the nation so that they all will moved by the Holy Spirit and be Supernaturally empowered to do the work that You created us for from the beginning! Father, I decree and declare that I will not be satisfied until the fresh wind of the Holy Spirit has blown upon me today and has given me fresh manna, a divine life and divine energy, for I know that without You I can  do nothing, but when Your Spirit blows upon me suddenly I am empowered to do what I could have never done before. Father, right now I am opening myself up to the rushing mighty wind of Your Holy Spirit.  I am ready to receive a fresh infilling of Your Divine Winds and to empower me for Your Glory and Service. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…

Love,  Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! Your Father Is Turning The Wind In Your Favor! Can You Hear It?

Amos 4:13 (NIV) ~ “He who forms the mountains, who creates the wind, and who reveals his thoughts to mankind, who turns dawn to darkness, and treads on the heights of the earth — the Lord God Almighty is his name.”

God formed everything and everyone and yet so many times we have opinions about things that we don’t fully understand. Like, the wind! Can you see the wind? Do you know which way it’s going to blow today? No, you don’t, you just have to trust God and go with the flow and enjoy the breeze! Do you feel it? God has caused the winds of change to blow in your direction! As you enter into this new season, you will fill the winds of the Spirit moving over you and propelling you into your God ordained destiny!

John 3:8 ~ “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So, it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” When the wind blows, a shaking takes place, you feel the breeze even though you can’t see it, but you got a feeling that the Holy Spirit is up to something big, and you are in awe at what God is doing in your life! Yeah, I know that you are facing some different kinds of battles, and it may seem like our request to God has gone unheard and unheeded.  But God! Today, I want to encourage you, that it has not gone un-noticed, unheard or unheeded, the movement of God’s Spirit, is like the wind, though you may not see it, it’s always moving and there accomplishing its intended purpose.

The Wind of God is free, and it can blow and go anywhere it wants! For this reason, you need focus on God’s Will and not your want! In order to see the kingdom of God, you must be born again, it is not an optional religious experience, but it is an absolutely necessity if you want to be saved! So, if you have been born of God, then you should be a true believer! Just like the wind is moving and blowing, so is the Spirit of God moving on your behalf. God’s Spirit is discerned by its effects and not by what you observe, the Holy Spirit is active yet still it is unseen, but it’s working loudest when it’s silent!

You and I are finite people and we do not know, hear or see everything. But you serve the “Infinite One,” the One who knows, hears and sees everything at the same time, you serve a Gracious God!” God hears and is answering your prayers and sometimes He may say yes, no, or wait. If He says no, He has a better plan than the one you have and if He says wait, He’s perfecting something in the wind for you, just wait on Him.

There is something you should know, you can’t determine where the wind came from, and you can’t determine where it’s going! (Just like your life, you have no control, it’s all in God’s Plan, where you are going and how)! It always looks worse than it actually is and it’s during these moments that God is doing the most work for you. The Lord sees you and He and cares. The Spirit of God is always active on your behalf, but it’s like the mountains and the wind it goes beyond the comprehension of your temporal vision, you just have to stand still and feel it, feel the wind of the Holy Spirit blowing on you!

Have you been born again? Born of the Spirit, you do know that “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.” John 6:63! The Wind of God is blowing and there is a shaking and shifting in your atmosphere, it’s happening in your favor! Be ready to feel the Wind! God’s Spirit is speaking to you through the wind, and it is moving you in whatever direction He wants you to go! Stop fighting against the Wind (The Spirit of God)!

The freedom of the Spirit of God is producing life in you as a born-again child and your will is moving to the moments that your new birth took place! The effects from the sound of the wind changed you and you were made alive by The Spirit of God! Your will was moved to receive Jesus and to believe in Jesus The Christ as your Lord and Savior! Father Thank You for revealing to us who You are! You are the Lord God Almighty!

Let’s Pray:
Father, I Thank You for making it possible for me to know You and experience this amazing life changing wind blowing in my life, pass the mountains, through the darkness and into your marvelous light! Thank You Father! Father, Abba Father, I want to feel Your Wind blowing on and in me today! Father, Thank You for Your breath of Rauch, cover me and every one that is connected to me, for we all need you! Father, help me to embrace the sound, shifting and blowing of Your Wind, Will, Way and Word today! Father, move me to any place You want me, for wherever You are, that’s where I want to be also. I live to be in Your Presence, morning, noon and night, I just want to be near You! I am surrender to Your Will and Way! Let the Power of Your Holy Spirit blow in my life like never before today. In Jesus Christ Mighty Name. Amen!!!

Blessings…
Minister Jean
