Good Morning Sunshine! Get Up and Get Out of God’s Way!

Matthew 16:21-23 NIV ~ “From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life. [22] Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “Never, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to you!” [23] Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”

When Jesus was in the garden of Gethsemane, He had to come to a decision, choose to do what He was wanted or choose to do what He was born to do! It was a deliberate choice to choose a natural death over life, that you may have eternal life! He had to move from a place of barely being able to face what was before Him in His preexisting humanity to accepting His next inherited change, which was irreversible, it was the final road to Him becoming The Christ! The shaping and molding that God did was fierce, intentional and deliberate!

“Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. [3] Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. [4] And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing.” James 1:2-4 AMP. You had to go through it, you had to go through your Gethsemane, and the only way is through Jesus! As you can see, Jesus didn’t go looking for His trials, He was born for them. So, you do not have to search for your trials, but embrace them deliberately, knowing that they will lead you to endurance, which leads you to maturity! (All I can say is, “Thank You God, You brought me through this and brought me through that! “Thank You God,” You bought me through it!) and I know that some of you have the same testimony, it might not be what I went through, but it was what you went through, and He brought you through it! You should be praising Him right about now!

Trials Come! Testing’s Come! Tribulations Come! And they all have the same purpose and power to produce in you something greater for His Glory, it’s just how you see it and face it! God wants to get the wrinkles out of you so that you can worship Him, He will press out your pain and push you into your purpose, He wants to smooth out your hurt and take you to healing, and He wants to steam out your stubbornness and bring you to a place of surrender in Him, when you release your cares unto Him, Matthew 11:28-30. Your trials came to increase your faith, patience and love that and that you will guard and sustain you. They came to grow you up! What you see as a challenge, God sees it as a way to transform you, so that you may experience a full life of joy! They come to push you to God!

Your experience is yours and nobody can do it for you or detour you! Sometimes when you see someone struggling, the first thing you want to do is rescue them, especially your children and family, your instincts tell you to jump in with both feet and try to fix it for them! But what if that struggle is the very thing God is using to draw them to Him, to strengthen them, to build their character and grow them? Get out of the way, they need to grow and so do you! Let the Growing Begin! You must let it grow in them and you. Today instead of stepping in, step out of the way, you were never meant to fiddle with what only God can fix. Your role is to pray for God to do what only God can do. Stop interfering, for this may stunt their spiritual growth and yours or slow you down from what God has said for you to do and be!

Jesus knew what He had to do, but Peter always seems to think he knew better than the Lord. Nobody knows better than God! So, Jesus told Peter to get out of His way! Today God is asking you to get out of the way for the only way to eternal life was through the gate of Gethsemane and you need Jesus Christ to accomplish this task, nobody else can do it! You need to look at God! Count it all joy “when” you face these trials, (look at the operative word, when), you will face trials, as a matter of you will face many different kinds of trials during your lifetime, but embrace them, because they will lead you into the mature Christians that God created you to be!

Remember that you serve a God who is the same, yesterday, today, tomorrow and for evermore.  When you face trials, James says, count it all joy! Are you counting your joy moments? Just take a minute and look back over your life and you should see all the times that God brought, kept and sustained you during your trials! Ask God to forgive you for trying to fix other people’s problems when they’re not yours to fix in the first place. Today, commit to pressing, watching, listening, praying and to loving God and watch Him transform you through your trials. Ask God to help you not get in the way of what He’s doing in your life today and in anybody’s else life!

Let’s Pray:
Father, thank You! Father, I’m doing like you said, I’m counting it all joy when I’m tested by trials and temptations for it is producing a greater faith in me for You. Father, I’m going to meditate on Your Word, I’m going to stand on my firm foundation which is Your Word and I’m going to walk according to the promises of Your Word.  I pray for each person reading this devotion and praying this prayer, that they receive You and Your gifts and trust You in everything they go through. May you experience the peace and joy that surpasses all your understanding, even in your our hardest and darkest of days, knowing that God got you. Father, Thank You for the gift of Salvation and the peace you make available to your children though Your son, Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit. Father, may I experience the peace and joy that surpasses all of Your understanding, even in on my hardest and darkest of days, knowing that God got you. Father, I Thank You for Your Holy Spirit that reveals Your plans to me and how You are using these tests, trials and tribulations for my good, to give me strength and courage to face these things head on and overcome it by the word of my faith and testimony in You, for Your Glory. In Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! Are You Fit? Are You In Shape! Seriously?

1 Peter 1:3-5 AMP ~ “Blessed [gratefully praised and adored] be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant and boundless mercy has caused us to be born again [that is, to be reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose] to an ever-living hope and confident assurance through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, [4] [born anew] into an inheritance which is imperishable [beyond the reach of change] and undefiled and unfading, reserved in heaven for you, [5] who are being protected and shielded by the power of God through your faith for salvation that is ready to be revealed [for you] in the last time.”

So many times you don’t say what you should because you want to keep it light. But as a Christian you have probably erred in one way or another by not saying the hard things as frequently as you should have! Don’t panic this is not a beat-up moment, but you need to hear this, because it lies at the heart of this question that I’m asking you? Are you seriously fit? Let me tell you what I’m really asking you, do you know who the Executor of your soul is? Yes, it’s Serious! When you think about your last will and testament, what do you have in place? Yeah I know right now you are thinking about who is going to get what? But that’s not what I’m talking about, I’m asking you have you made plans for where your soul is going to end up? Have you really chosen God and made Him the One and True Executor of you? Seriously! (Matthew 16:26-28)! You need to have your Spiritual Will and Inheritance in place!

There are so many people who are not giving their best to God, they want to be part-time Christians and give a partial commitment to discipleship. You (we) have not given God our all, you have not afforded Him His rightful place that He deserves in your life, and in the lives of your families. And you wonder why you struggle? And why your children do not go to church, (you let them choose if they want to go or not) and thereby you are failing your next generation of committed followers and believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. You have not given them what they need to navigate the complexities of living in a fallen world, (Proverbs 22:6)! Does your home lack commitment to God’s Word, attending Church, discipleship and biblical growth? Ask yourself this question, where have you put demands on your priorities and the schedules of your life? What matters the most?

In our community we have become experts in “Doing God” and “Doing Church” it has become a secondary priority in your life, you see you “Do God or Do Church” when there is nothing else to do, or when your favorite team is not playing, or some other form of recreation is not taking place, you do church on Sunday, anywhere between 7:00 am and 1:00 pm, that’s all the time you have! And here’s the thing, nobody talks about it! Listen to me well, I’m not saying that you can’t do those extracurricular activities, but why does your relationship with God have to take a backseat to them! I mean you did say, first things first, and yet you do the exact opposite! But if God decided to take your breath away today, what could you do? Nothing! So why not experience those breathtaking moments with Him first and then everything else! (I’m just asking)!

So many times, you have had one bad thing after another happen in your personal life but because, you felt like they were not Serious enough about what was most important so, you ignored it and kept right on doing what you were doing! And it is that word Serious, that underlies the importance of what needed to be done! Now, when you realized how tough and strenuous your commitment needs to be, you find yourself asking this rhetorical question, “Seriously? How and when did we get here? Here lives the answer, with anything that is valuable to you, it is going to require your time, energy, commitment and resolve!

For those of you who exercise on a consistent basis, you know what it takes to keep it going, and it’s not based on how you feel! (Please put your feelings away)! In order to maintain your fitness, you have to be serious about your discipline and devotion. It is with this same principle that rings true for your spiritual fitness, you must be disciplined, devoted and dedicated every single day. Just like you prepare and take care of your physical body, by exercising, eating right and resting, your spiritual body needs the exact same thing! You need to be renewed continually in your commitment to God. This should be your eternal goal! You have to be sure of where you are going, for these is no middle ground or sidelines, either you are with God or you’re not, (Joshua 24:15)!

Let’s be serious for a minute and talk about this; do it for yourself, for your children and the for the generations that have been birth from your loins and the ones that are to come! God has given you His Word and everything that you will need know, it has been outlined and defined for you on how to achieve your goals and how to be worthy to God and faithful as a Christian! His Word will cause you to be Serious about Him and your desire to seek Him daily and to apply His Word of Wisdom to your life.  This is one thing that you need to know, knowledge leads to action, this means that what you know and believe will lead to what you do and put into practice. When you read and study the Word of God, you will act on the Word that you read! The fruit will be evident in your life!

If there is one thing, I could tell you to desire, it would be to desire to be like God in your character! I know that you have had to live in and go through some adverse conditions in your life and sometimes things may have even spiraled out of control, and then it would calm down for a little while and then the cycle would start all over again! But then you met God, and what you thought was normal was dysfunction, but thanks be unto God, that life of dysfunction is over! You have a new family, and you are living a new life, full of discipline, devotion, and dedication, you now have all the resources you need to be successful and make right choices!

All you have to do now is live it out the way God gave it to you! You see in this new place you value what comes first, your relationship with God and then everything else follows suit! When you follow the path of God you flush out the flesh! You have made a conscious commitment to enact the Word of God out in your life as a blueprint is to a pattern! I’m calling to all of you, don’t just exist as someone who possess eternal fire insurance, but make it your daily goal to Move Forward because you have God on the inside of you, learn to be present in His Presence, to make the time count, don’t just give your time away, gift it, because time is a priceless commodity and you won’t get back what you wasted, be connected to what is real and what is eternal! Seriously? This is Serious!

Let’s Pray:
Father Thank You! I thank You for Your Word, Your Wisdom, Your Discipline, Your Discernment, Your Dedication, Your Devotion and Your Love for me! Father, I am determined to walk worthy of a child of the Most-High Kin, for You are my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Father, I’m Serious about my relationship and time with You, please reveal Your revelation to me and fill me with Your knowledge and how to apply Your Wisdom and understanding in my life in every area. Father I want to be fit, physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and financially so that I can help others, for I know that everything that I have comes from You and I’m grateful! Father, thank You for going before me and taking care of everything that I will need today! Father, send someone across my path today that I can share Your Word with and pray that today becomes the best day of their lives, because they accepted You as their Lord and Savior and now, we’re are siblings in the Kingdom and can do Your Will together! In Jesus Christ Name. 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…

Good Morning Sunshine! Father, I Want To Live A Holy And Sanctified Life For You!

John 17:19-21 NIV ~ “19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified. 20 My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.”

Yesterday we read about consecrating ourselves before we could go to the next level! Well, you can’t just stop there you have to sanctify yourself too! Yes, you must consecrate (your choice) yourself God before you become sanctified (God’s Work)!

What is sanctification? It is a work of grace that is received through faith in Jesus Christ’s Blood. It is a process that begins when a young the (believer) is regenerated, given a new nature, and continues to grow in grace. And in order to be sanctified, you must choose to consecrate yourself first to God, and this is the process that you started yesterday. Keep this in your mind, consecration is the quality decision you made to keep yourself separated and holy unto the Lord. And Sanctification is your willing act of separation unto God. You consecrated yourself when you made the conscious decision to surrender and yield to God with your whole heart! You chose to God’s Will over your will!

I have a question for you, have you ever gotten a stain on your favorite outfit and no matter how much you washed it the stain wouldn’t come clean? And then you tried it one more time with a different cleanser and it came clean.  Well, think about your life before Jesus, you tried everything you know how to get rid of the stain (sin) but no matter what you couldn’t do it, until you tried Jesus! His Blood cleansed you. (I can hear the words of this old song, I Know I’ve Been Changed, by Lashun Pace, “Somebody said how can a brown cow eat green grass and give you white milk? Huh, well, if you think that’s something God’s chemical laboratory of redemption took my, my black soul and dipped it in red blood and I came out white as snow”, Isaiah 1:18! The Blood of Jesus Christ cleaned you up! This is your shouting moment, you should be singing Glory Hallelujah and saying Thank You Jesus!

Do you like putting on dirty clothes? No, you don’t, you want clean clothes on! Well, when you don’t repent and ask God to cleanse you from the inside out, you are only surface clean. And nobody wants to be surface clean, I mean you look good from the outside, but on the inside, you are filthy! None of us can be holy on our own, we need God! He does the purifying and sanctifying work in your lives once you have made the decision to be consecrated unto the Him! I’ve come to tell you that only Jesus Christ can clean you from the inside out, will you let Him? As a matter of fact, everything that happened to you was God working on you, it was done to draw you closer and closer to Him! It’s designed to conform you into the image of Jesus Christ! In everything that you walked through it was God working through you and He’s working on you right now through the process of sanctification and it’s all for your good! God is sanctifying you for righteous living and this should be good news to your ears and heart! Leviticus 20:7 ~ “Sanctify yourselves therefore and be ye holy: for I am the Lord your God.”

As I live and learn more about God, I’ve come to know that we are in this world but not of this world and that we are commanded by Him to stand out and be different! As His child you are to act and think differently, to have separate values and views, from those in the world in everything that you do (Deuteronomy 14:2)! You and I were made in the image of Jesus Christ, so we are supposed to resemble Him and stand out and not look like anyone else, because we have been chosen, (2 Peter 2:9) redeemed and sanctified by the truth of God’s Word! There can be no distinction without separation; if you remain like the world, you will die like the world and that is not what your Father intended for you! But until you change your natural desires from the world to wanting the Word of God and be transformed, (Romans 12:2), you will never change or be different and no one will be able to tell you apart from an unbeliever in the world because your habits are similar to each other (1 John 2:15-16)!

I mean just because the whole world is doing a thing doesn’t make it right. God’s standards and ways are higher than the world, they are the same every day, they don’t change, they are the one constant thing that you can trust and depend upon all of the time! 1 Thessalonians 5:23 ~ “May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” The principles of God cannot and will not be changed to suit you when you want to compromise the Word of God to fit into the world. You must be a believer every day and all day, you don’t get a holiday or time off just because! For when you compromise, your destiny is no different from theirs, you cannot walk on both sides of the fence, you have to make a choice (Joshua 24:15)! I’m praying that the Grace of God would give you what you need in your character to stand for God, even if you have to stand alone, you must make the Word of God your standard and not man’s word! Be determined to be different in your character and your conduct from the unbelievers in this world!

I just have one more thing to ask you, can you imagine watching a movie that showed what your sin history looked like? Every bad thought, idol word, contrary behavior that went against what He told you not to do, those hidden sins, even those that you thought you hid from yourself, every sin, every day, all day long and day after day.  No one would want to see this movie over and over again, yet Jesus Christ, sees everything that you do, and He is the only One that can wash you clean through and through and give you His Mercy and Grace! When God washes you through and through, He gets rid of everything, and the perfect peace of God becomes your portion! Others should be able to tell the difference between you and an unbeliever! Shouldn’t they? God has giving you His statutes and He’s calling you to do a new thing, to be Holy, to be Consecrated, to be Sanctified, to be Different and to be Set Apart for His Purpose and Only your Lord and Savior can do this, “Trust The Process of God, as you continue to consecrate and be sanctified before God!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Father, search me and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts and remove anything from me that is wrong. Wash me through and through, until I look just like you. Father, I choose to consecrate myself on your Altar, burn off everything that is not like You. Then Father, may I be Sanctified by You and for Your Glory. Thank You Father, for forgiving me and cleansing me from all unrighteousness. Keep my mind and heart clear that I may hear from You at all times. Father fill my mind with good thoughts as You mold me into the image of Your Son Jesus Christ. Father may Your peace encompass me today as I draw near to You! May You continue to sanctify and washes you through and through! Please make me holy. Please make me look more like Jesus today. I pray Lord, that You will continue to work through every circumstance in me and that I will encounter You today in my life and that my life will never be the same because of what You have done for me, in me and through me, it’s for my good and Your Glory! In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! Consecrate Yourself Before The Lord! This Is Required Of You Before You Can Go To The Next Level!

Exodus 32:29 KJV~ “For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the Lord, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.”

What is Consecration? It is giving yourself to the Lord and becoming a living sacrifice for God! It was best said by Paul in Romans 12:1! But just so you know, Consecration is your responsibility, it’s your reasonable service unto God to Consecrate yourself! True Consecration is to be set apart, to be holy and used strictly for God and His service, to be Consecrated before God is for you to decrease, dethrone yourself and to let Jesus Christ be increased and be Enthroned in your life as your Lord and Savior! It’s in this place that the process of dying and rising, of self-discipline and the renewing Power of the Holy Spirit is taking place in you. Paul described it this way, “For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh” (2 Corinthians 4:11).

Our God is so Good, as I was preparing this devotional, I saw this scripture (Joshua 3:5, “And Joshua said to the people, “Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do wonders among you. “We have got to stop underestimating God’s Power to teach us while we are going through the process! He took a moment to teach me about Consecration in the process of going through! As I was praying Jesus was in pursuit of intimacy with me, He was up close and in my personal space, stepping on all of my toes! To God be the Glory, for there is no One else who can cleanse you from all unrighteousness!

You need to know this, before you enter your Promise Land, you must go through a purification ceremony. This is done before you make a sacrifice (you have to surrender and yield to God for the process to work) this must be done before you can witness in this next great act of God! God says to Consecrate yourself before the Lord, so that He can do those amazing things He’s been waiting and wanting to do in you! But He can’t do it until you move out of the way and consecrate yourself, you are in your own way, please move out of the way, you are holding up His progress!

Once you consecrate yourself and sanctify yourself to God He will do things in you, with you, for you, and through you that will amaze you! Your job is to consecrate, to be set apart, to be different! You are no longer just going to church every Sunday, paying your tithes and offering, and pretending that you are worshipping for others to see you and hear you, it looks good from the outside, but nothing in your heart has changed, doing all of those things are good and are a part of the process, but it’s not consecration, but if you just want to look good, you are accomplishing that!

When you’re Consecrated for God, you surrender your whole self to Him, you deny your flesh and you die to self, for you realize that every fiber of your being is for Him, every single second that you are breathing is because of Him, every move you make is because of Him, everything you have, your clothes, shoes, home, car, food, job, family, friends, and money yes, money, every single penny that you have is because of God, He gave you gifts, all because He loves you!

So, tell me why haven’t you totally Consecrated yourself to Him? Today is good day to start, repent, release, and consecrate yourself before the Lord and watch out for those amazing things that are going to start happening in your life!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Father, Thank You for purchasing me with Your Blood, making my body a temple of Your Holy Spirit and now I present every single member of my body to You as a living sacrifice an instrument of righteousness to be used by You and for You! I repent right now of every time I abused my body, and I surrender everything under the atoning Blood of Jesus Christ! Father, I Consecrate not only my body, but my thoughts, my words, my emotions, and my actions to You today and every day. Father, hide me in Your secret place and hold me close to You! Father, I have put all my trust in You and my life is in Your Hands and there is no better place to reside, than under the wings of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Father, I ask all this in Your Mighty Name. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! Just Lay It On The Altar And Let His Fire Fall Upon Your Heart!

Psalm 5:3 TPT ~ “At each and every sunrise you will hear my voice as I prepare my sacrifice of prayer to you. Every morning I lay out the pieces of my life on the altar and wait for your fire to fall upon my heart.”

I love early morning, be it sunshiny or raining! And the smell of a good cup of coffee is the topping! When I pour my first cup, and before I take a sip, I inhale the fresh aroma, and it smells so good! The aroma lingers and every day and I relive how good it smells to me, and it stirs my memory that is beyond my understanding of just how much I enjoy that cup of coffee!

But how much better does your offering unto God smell, a pleasing aroma to Him! This is got to be how God feels when our prayers go up to Him! Can you imagine it, you have taken time to be with Him and no one else matters but Him, now you are prepared to pray to your Father and give it all up to Him, on the Altar and wait for His fire to fall on your heart! Right in this moment your prayers are ascending up to heaven and it smells so good going into the nostrils of your Father! Yeah, I know, just the thought of how this works is beyond your understanding, you can’t even begin to explain it or comprehend how the sacrifice of your prayer offering becomes such a sweet-smelling aroma unto God’s nostrils, that is made by you and breathed in by Him all day long with love, it’s because He loves it when you pray to Him daily!

Have you ever thought about how somethings that you smell are pleasing and then there are other things that you smell. they make you sick instantly when you smell it! You do know that is how God feels about sin, He does not like the scent of sin or disobedience in His nostrils, it stinks. This is why you should lay it all down on the Altar, Numbers 15:3 ~ “and you offer to the Lord from the herd or from the flock a food offering or a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering or at your appointed feasts, to make a pleasing aroma to the Lord.” But thanks be unto God that your prayer scent, your repentance scent, and your thanksgiving scent all hold a special and specific place and meaning to God! Today, God is not only exhaling and breathing on you, but He’s inhaling and breathing on you too!

Build a place of worship, where you can go 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year, it’s a place where you be in God’s Presence and offer Him you in undistracted worship, as a holy living sacrifice (Romans 12:1), it’s the place where everything is acceptable and pleasing to God. Your life should be lived on the altar of worship. This kind of worship transcends the thought of just going to worship, it means you are in attendance and fellowship, this type of worship represents Jesus Christ as the head of your life, this type of worship is a sweet and pleasing aroma to God!

How do you build an Altar before God? You build it by listening to God’s voice, believing Him, and obeying Him, and then your worship will be a sweet aroma that flows upward into the nostrils of God and then He will release His blessings and promises on you and your family and everything that you do will be blessed! Build an Altar of promises from God that flow into your life. When you are obedient, God responds to you with His absolute best! When you are pleasing to God, He accepts your sacrifices and offerings. Every day, you should take time and build an altar of sacrifice, prayer and worship to God!

Today, let go and let God, build yourself and Altar before God, it’s the place where everything that you do will be like a sweet-smelling aroma that will fill you up with Him and for Him. Build a place of sacrifice! Lay it all on the Altar and let His fire melt away everything that would grieve Him from your heart. For you do know that your mouth is connected to your and heart, “May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.” Psalm 19:14!

For your tongue is a bucket that draws from the inner reservoir of your heart and brings it to the surface for all to hear! You will get your heart right when you lay it at the Altar and let God have His way! What you place here should cost you something, (you, your time and effort and your efforts) salvation is free, but it cost you, you to walk in sanctification!

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You! Father, today I offer You my life as a living sacrifice on the altar where I pray that You will hear my voice; and answer me as I will prepare my prayers to You and I’ll wait and watch as You speak to my heart. Father, I love setting and sitting in with You in this moment of in Your Presence. Father, I give You all of me, my health, my finances, my family, and everything that I treasure and desire! Father, consume me in Your love, cover me in Your mercy, empower me with Your grace, and grant me Your Peace as I walk throughout this day because I laid everything on the Altar before I started the day that You allowed me. I’m grateful! In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! When God Delivers You, Who Will You Tell?

Mark 5:1-2,6,9,13,18-20 ERV ~ “Jesus and his followers went across the lake to the area where the Gerasene people lived. [2] When Jesus got out of the boat, a man came to him from the caves where the dead are buried. This man had an evil spirit living inside him. [6] While Jesus was still far away, the man saw him. He ran to Jesus and bowed down before him. [9] Then Jesus asked the man, “What is your name?” The man answered, “My name is Legion, because there are many spirits inside me.” [13] So Jesus allowed them to do this. The evil spirits left the man and went into the pigs. Then the herd of pigs ran down the hill and into the lake. They were all drowned. There were about 2000 pigs in that herd. [18] Jesus was preparing to leave in the boat. The man who was now free from the demons begged to go with him. [19] But Jesus did not allow the man to go. He said, “Go home to your family and friends. Tell them about all that the Lord did for you. Tell them how the Lord was good to you.” [20] So the man left and told the people in the Ten Towns about the great things Jesus did for him. Everyone was amazed.”

Please read Mark 5:1-20 while you are doing this devotional!

Today, you no longer need to be ashamed of what you have done! If you repented and gave it to God, He has forgiven you and He will not remind you of it again. There is no shame or condemnation, you were bought with a price, the Blood of Jesus (1 Corinthians 6:20) and the promise of that is you are no longer bound by chains! Forgive yourself and use your testimony to share with others. For if someone knew you before you were saved and they can see the new you, they will know that a change has come over you! You have been cleansed, washed (1 Corinthians 6:11) and transformed (Romans 12:2) by the Blood of the Lamb and your testimony (Revelation 12:11) is proof of it! Can’t nobody tell your story like you!

There was a demon possessed man that people knew from city to city, and they stayed away from him and that area. This man’s role was not to simply to enjoy Jesus Presence, but to tell everyone he knew what Jesus had done for him. Today and every day that God gives you breath, this is what you are suppose to be doing.

There are two types of people and two very different responses when it comes to seeing a miracle performed by Jesus that we see here. One group just wanted Jesus to get back in the boat and leave, they didn’t get the encounter that took place through deliverance, they only experienced what happened to the pigs. They begged Jesus to leave, for His response to the Gospel was too much for them. They desired peace and quietness, they wanted a natural response, nothing spiritual!

But Jesus came there and got out of the boat for one reason, to set that man free, (Jesus came to this world to set you free)! He came to expel the real spiritual uncleanness from Israel, not by natural conquest, but to rid them of the legions (demonic spirits) but by spiritual conquest (to deliver you) through the power of the Gospel that He preached and taught them about the Cross on which He died for you and me! He showed them what it looked like when Jesus heals you, and because of that, the man wanted to go with Jesus! As a matter of fact, he begged Jesus to let him come, but Jesus had something greater in mind! The man’s testimony would do more, because people all around the cities knew him before as that man! Now they will get to know him because of The Man! So, they will know that it had to be Jesus that did it. (There is a difference between knew him and knowing him, think about this in your relationship with God, either you know Him personally or you knew of Him because of what someone has told you. Just a little food for thought!)

Jesus is calling you to mission greater than what you can understand, and it is not up to you to understand but to obey and go. God wants you to fulfill the great commission, (Matthew 28:18-20). He is calling you to stop the silence and tell your testimony of what the Lord has done for you! Somebody needs to know that if God did it for you, He will certainly do it for them to, because He is no respecter of person, (Romans 2:11). God worked that thing in and out of you on purpose, and He did it for His glory and not what’s best for your flesh! (I know it was hard and it have even been ugly, but God, He uses everything, nothing is or was lost, Romans 8:28)! You must trust God and His Word, stop trying to figure it out or go ahead of Him!

God knows what’s best for you over what you know, especially when it doesn’t make sense to you. If you only follow God when it makes sense, then you are not operating in that faith, that’s all you and your flesh! The demon possessed man did what Jesus’ said, even though he wanted to be with Him, but Jesus needed him to proclaim the Gospel instead of just being a spectator! This man chose God’s plan over his, yes, his plan was good, but it wasn’t a God plan. I know you like to be in the background with others as they minister and give their testimony and maybe tell yours for you too, but somebody needs to hear yours, (I’m speaking to myself in this), you need to open your mouth, speak up and out!

As you give your testimony, some might ask you for all the details of what happened and how you got free only to choose to remain in their same space, don’t worry about the negative people. Just remember how most places Jesus went the people were bombarding Him, but the folks here just wanted Him gone, immediately. They were not ready to be free, they could only hear and see the negative of what happened to the pigs. You did your part you planted the seed, and someone else will water it and God will get the increase, (1 Corinthians 3:5-9). God has a greater plan for you, He has different places and spaces for you to occupy!

When you choose to follow God’s plan over your own, God will give you step-by-step instructions and what action needs to be taken. So, how do you begin, you pray, and you ask God to fill your mouth, and you just start telling others what the Lord has done for you, you don’t have to dress it up, the Words that God will give you will be able to stand on their own, He is just that Powerful!

My prayer for you today is that you would be like that man and go into the highways and byways telling others what Jesus did for you. For after what Jesus did for him, he couldn’t keep it to himself, he had to praise Him by honoring His Call to go! He witnessed to ten cities, to any and every one that would listen. When you truly understand and appreciate what Jesus has done for you, you should praise Him and honor His Call as well! Start with your household, your neighbors, colleagues, church family, and in the marketplace! But because you have free will, it is ultimately up to you to obey Him! You have to choose God’s way to advance His Kingdom over your good way to advance His Kingdom, because His way is always the best and it’s the only way that is true and sure to last forever!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Abba Father! Thank You for delivering me! Thank You for saving me! Thank You for leading me to tell someone else about you! Father, I will go wherever You want me to go and speak Your Word and sow into those who You want to know You better! Father, give me Your courage and strength to obey what You ask me to do and that I do it when You say, no more procrastination, putting it off until later or tomorrow, for neither one of those times are promised to me! Father, send Your Holy Spirit to fill me, give me wisdom and all manners of discernment and discipline, that I may know who and when. Father, thank You for giving me a heart that is strong enough to face the worst; a mind that forgets what is bad; and a soul that shall never lose faith in You. Father, lead me to always see me and to repent and forgive, that I may not become bitter, but that I can love like You have shown me. Father, thank You for what You have done, keep me focused on you amid the all the things that come distract me in life. Father m, You are the Creator and giver of life and You know me better than I know myself, keep me from hurting me and others. For You know where I’ve been hurt and broken physically, spiritually, and emotionally. Pour Your power out in me and among Your children that we may all be healed, renewed, and strengthened. Father, grant me Your Grace to accept the changes that come to me as I move through the seasons of life and give me unwavering faith that overcomes all of my fears. Father, put Your Word in my spirit, Jude 24-25, “Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand without blemish in the presence of his glory with rejoicing, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority, before all time and now and forever.” In the Name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! It’s Shift Change Time! Are You Ready? 

Philippians 4:11-13 AMP ~ “Not that I speak from [any personal] need, for I have learned to be content [and self-sufficient through Christ, satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or uneasy] regardless of my circumstances. [12] I know how to get along and live humbly [in difficult times], and I also know how to enjoy abundance and live in prosperity. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret [of facing life], whether well-fed or going hungry, whether having an abundance or being in need. [13] I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.]”

Stop! Breathe! Don’t Panic! God has shifted you into position, you are moving from transition to transformation! God had to shift you from you so that your shift wouldn’t be stopped! God had to shift you so that He could close the wrong doors that you went through, so that you could enter in the right doors, He doesn’t want you to go back through the wrong door again, (and those doors can be a person, place or thing). He doesn’t want you to go back through these same trials again, and I know you may think this detour has derailed you from His plans for you, but let me tell you, the experience was not wasted, for God uses everything for your good, Romans 8:28!

Have you ever felt like you were in the middle of a Shift, and nothing is going like it’s supposed to? I mean you are Praying, spending time in your Word, Fasting, paying your Tithes, Helping Others, Worshiping, Watching and Waiting and doing everything that you are supposed to be doing and still the change has not happened, and nothing is making sense! Don’t Panic, when God starts Shifting you, your whole world will seem like it’s falling apart, and looks like whatever could go wrong is happening, it’s one thing after another, these tests and trials will make you feel like you’re being punished for something that you have no idea about! 

Don’t Panic, God is in control, and you are right in the middle of the Shift Change!

God is shifting you into the position that He designed you for and your heart’s desire to align with Him. I know this season may look like a setback right now but it’s a setup for the Promise that you prayed for to your Father! When you have come to the end of yourself and the dust settles down, you will say to, “If God be for me, who can be against me” (Romans 8:31)! It’s in this moment that you will understand why you had to go through what you went through! There is one thing that I have learned that I want to share with you, when you are going through the process, when God is Shifting you, keep people who are not going in the same direction as you on a “Need to Know Basis”! Keep your Shifting Process Private, keep it on the DL, (Divine Low)!

You do remember when the children of Israel needed a victory against Jericho, they had to walk around a wall for seven days in silence, (you have got to learn how to be quiet), they could not say a word, and when they day came, they had to shout for the victory, and the walls fell down! It’s during your silent time that God is refining your shout, Joshua 6:1-5! This time your Victory is going to require your silence! God is saying to you in this Shift Change, you must follow all the instructions exactly like He says, He is putting a period where you had comma and a question mark, there will be no bargaining! Keep your mouth quiet, the victory has already been established for you to win, you got this!

Today, God is shifting you into position for the promise that you prayed for.  Sometimes this shift from God might look chaos, setback and even defeat but trust the process of God, you will see what He was doing in your life when the dust settles, and you will understand it better by and by after you have gone through what you have been through, it was a part of your Shifting and your Anointing! 

Let’s Pray:


Father, Thank You! Father, please forgive me for trying to go through things without you, please create in me a clean hear. Father, today I make a conscious decision to Let go and Let God! Thank You for equipping me for this Shift Change, make me ready in every area of my life! Father, I’m ready for this change, I’m tired of going round in circles, I’m ready for the chaos to stop and never return, and I know that I can only do it through You! Father, I Thank You that You are teaching me how to be silent, to change my attitude and that my perception and perspective will align with Your Will for my life that I may live a victorious life! Father, thank You for transforming my mind and cleaning up my vision and hearing concerning my current transition! Father, I trust You, and Your perfect timing to change me during this Shift Change! I will not be moved, nor will I panic, for I can do all things through You Christ Jesus which gives me strength. In the Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen!

Blessings…

Good Morning Sunshine! Who Are You Praying For Today?

Psalm 5:1-3 ERV ~ “LORD, listen to me and understand what I am trying to say. [2] My God and King, listen to my prayer. [3] Every morning, LORD, I lay my gifts before you and look to you for help. And every morning you hear my prayers.”

Today, I want to ask you a very important question, who are you praying for today? Are you praying for the unbelievers? The backsliders? What about those who have never heard about the Gospel? Christian Disciples? Every day you should be praying for somebody! You do know that somebody prayed for you, now it’s your turn to pray for someone else to get to know Jesus Christ!

Your prayers are simply conversations between you and your Father, who loves and adores you. As you enter into the House of Prayer, you will be ushered into a personal conversation with Your Father! God’s House of Prayer is really where you want to be, it’s a place where you will gather together with other believers and come into a prayer of agreement and be on one accord in unity and prayer! 

It’s in your commune and time with God that you can hear Him, when you are broken, He fixes you; when you are sick, He heals you; when you are tired,  He comforts you; when you cry, He hears your cry, even the silent ones, and He catches all of your tears; He hears you and He hears every beat of your heart, He does not miss anything that concerns you are anyone that is connected to you.! Your prayers are the heartbeat, and the pulse is His Wind and the Holy Spirit in your life! Every Servant of God has both, His heartbeat and His pulse. There is Power in Prayer! Now all you have to do is believe that the Father’s Will, will be done in you, through you and for you in the Name of Jesus Christ!

Prayer is the most powerful tool that you can have, Prayer changes everything and everyone, everywhere all of the time!

Let’s Pray:
Father, teach me to pray according to Your will and way. Father, today I’m bringing You all of my prayer request and I’m laying them at Your feet in Your house. You are my only help and provision! Father, I pray that the prayers that I’m praying will connect with other believers around the world and that we will see a shift and a change in Your children for Your Glory and their good. I will remain prayerful, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! Change Your Battlefield In Prayer, So That You Will Win Your Battle In Prayer!

 2 CHRONICLES 20:15-17 ~ “He said: “Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the LORD says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s. [17] You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.”

I’m not sure when I saw this nugget on Facebook, but I know it’s fitting for today’s devotional! Let’s look at this story. “The Eagle does not fight the snake on the ground. He lifts it up into the sky and changes the battlefield, and then puts the snake in the air. The snake has no stamina, no power, no balance in the air. It is useless, weak and vulnerable unlike the ground where it is powerful, wise and deadly. Take your fight to the spiritual realm by praying and you will see how the Lord takes charge of your battles. Don’t fight the enemy in his comfort zone, change the battlefields like the eagle and let God take over through your fervent prayer. You will be assured of a clean victory!”

As I reflected and thought about what happened, my mind went to me being on the Prayer line yesterday and the WOG was ministering on this, “The Battle Is Not Yours, It’s The Lord’s and He will give you power to destroy your enemy through prayer! Look at how a change of atmosphere, changed the outcome of this battle! You can’t fight your enemy in his comfort zone, you have to rise up higher and move him away from what he knows to who and what you know!

Do you know the difference between the battleground and the battlefield? The Battleground is where the enemy tries to attack you, in every area of your life. That’s his comfort zone! Now, the Battlefield, this is where you get to execute and use your weapons that God had supplied you with to defeat and destroy the enemy! Thanks be unto God; you don’t have to fight him on his territory! You get to go higher!

Today, you might be going through a battle, don’t worry, it’s designed to make you stronger, to make you wiser, to make you better! As a matter of fact, this isn’t for you anyway, it’s for God, He’s showing up in the midst of your battle to fight the fixed fight for you! For every battleground there is a Battlefield ready to take the enemy higher and then drop it down to never return again!

God has given you 4 vital keys to help you to be the best soldier that you can be!

1. You got the Word of God, Hebrews 4:12, “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”

2. You got Your Amour, Ephesians 6:10-18, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. [11] Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. [12] For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. [13] Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. [14] Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, [15] and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. [16] In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. [17] Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God! “

3. You got the gift of Prayer, Ephesians 6:18, “And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. You got the Power of God The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost!

4. You got the Peace of God, Isaiah 26:3, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.”

So, those 4 things help you do these 2 things: they teach you how to stand and stay alert on the battlefield!

First ~ You know that this is not you walking, in your own strength, but it is the strength provided by God. It means that you are using the weapons of spiritual warfare including speaking truth, living righteously, sharing the gospel, being faithful, knowing God’s word, and praying every day!

Secondly ~ You know that even though the opposition is tough, you have the assurance that you are standing in Christ Jesus, and you know that you know that you will receive a reward for fighting the good fight of faith and this isn’t just for the next lifetime, but it’s in this one, the one that you are living right now! You know that you know that The Lord is going to reward you with His Presence, peace, and purpose for the battlefield!

You will learn more about God in the thick of battle than you will in your times of quietness! Your victory over the sinful nature, the world, and the devil is primarily won on your knees in prayer! (Your knees have the strongest bones in your body.) You will learn that first in your atmosphere change! With that being said, there will be no running away, for you are a warrior created for and by Jesus Christ! And He has equipped you, trained you, and counseled you on how to overcome your enemy!

You were chosen for this battle, because of who God is, He made you strong for the battle, and you will win! Again, running away isn’t an option for you. Jesus, your King of kings is standing with you in the battle. “Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle.” Psalm 144:1! “Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. [14] The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:13-14!

I know that sometimes it gets tough in the battle, and you may even get a little fatigue and you may want to step off the field to escape it all. But remember that you are a soldier of Jesus Christ, and soldiers don’t quit, God is going to give you staying Power for the battlefield! Yes, warriors do get wounded serving in battle, but you must continue to go and serve! Your Commander in Chief will clean you up, He will heal you, repair your wounds and restore you, and sometimes you won’t even be able to tell where the scar was in the beginning!

So, you can’t let what happened stop you from achieving the greater purpose at hand! Another thing is that warriors don’t stay on the sideline, they are made for the battlefield, and the deeper they go into battle, the closer they are to God! Do you feel Him, are you close to Him? As a warrior you should always prepared because you don’t know who, when or where the enemy is, so remain prayerful, alert and disciplined, so that you can be on guard as you stand, watch, wait, work and worship in season and out a season! As a Warrior you must be prepared at all times!

One thing that I do know is that your Commander and Chief knows your location, position and posture at all times, and you must never lose sight of this! Stay connected to the Commander and Chief, by whatever means necessary! Keep your Sword with you at all times, it is your Manual for life, everything you need can be found in this guide, you just have to stop and read it, and follow every Word in it and don’t forget to ask Him for, discernment, wisdom and understanding so that you will know how to apply the Word! Being a Soldier in the Army of the Lord, qualifies you to be a bold Warrior for the Lord!

I’m sure I have shared this experience with you before, but I believe that you need it again. I received this nugget in November 2016, I received this note, when I was living in Texas. I had sent a print job to the copier and when I picked up my papers this word was on a plain piece of paper in the middle of my job, if was as if I had started printing and my job got interrupted and this printed and then my job finished! I’m sharing it with y’all!

“God gives His toughest battles to His strongest soldiers; He knew that you could walk in this tough experience and then be able to walk out of those same experiences and be able to minister to those who are experiencing the same battles right now!”

Are you a Warrior today? Warrior, take a deep breath, get your second wind and keep pushing, and don’t let anything stop you from achieving the goal at hand. Make your election sure and be determined to go, even if you have to go along. Trust God, God plus you are the majority, which secures your victory!

Let’s Pray:
Pray Ephesians 6:11-18 & Psalm 23! Father thank you for the strength and power that You have given me to destroy everything on the battleground that would cause me to lay down and die. Father, I have put my mind on Your Word, and I will not die, I will live and live well for I am on the Battlefield for You and I will serve You until I die! Father, I will run and not get weary, for I am standing on Your Word in Isaiah 40:31 NIV, “but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.” Father, Thank You for restoring me, for healing all of my wounds that I may continue on in my service unto You! Father, teach me how to battle in prayer that the enemy will be defeated. Teach me how to stand, how to respond and what to let go! Father, I trust Your plan for my life, You know every battleground that I’m going to face, and I thank You for the battlefield that You gave me to defeat the enemy. Father, today I’m changing the atmosphere where I can pray and defeat the enemy, for I know that as long as I’m with You, I will be victorious, and they will know that I’m Your child. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
