Don’t Stop at Enough

Recently I walked through a tough few weeks, physically and financially.  During that time, I pressed into God consistently and purposefully.  His Word was my priority and His grace brought me through.  Frankly, when the challenge lightened, I just wanted to stop and take a deep breath. And that’s exactly what I did. At least […]

A Reminder to Come Up Higher

Today, God reminded me of a dream I once had.  I believe that dream is for THIS season. In the dream, my daughter, her family and I were traveling to a certain destination.  I assumed it was an adventure of sorts because we weren’t traveling on highways, instead we traveled the back roads. Although I […]

Don’t Let Disappointment Stop You

Proverbs 13:12 says, “Disappointment makes the heart sick.”  I have found this to be so true.  In the Message Bible, it says, “Unrelenting disappointment leaves you heartsick, but a sudden good break can turn life around.” The Passion Bible says it like this: When hope’s dream seems to drag on and on, the delay can […]

Our Most Effective Place

Bad news.  We all get it from time to time – our response to it is vital.  My week began with such news. Early, just after I started work, my mom called and said, “I have some bad news.”  She proceeded to tell me my nephew had been attacked and beaten badly.  He was airlifted […]

Pitiful or Powerful in God

“You can’t be pitiful and powerful at the same time!” I heard Joyce Meyer say those words many years ago.  And they are the words that came back to me this morning as I was praying for my nephew.  You cannot be pitiful and powerful at the same time – you will have to choose. I […]

Empowered for Fulfillment

There is a scripture in the New Testament that I love.  It was the first thing that came to mind when I woke up this morning.  It is found in Luke 1:45. “Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.” Luke 1:45 […]

First… Know Your God

Yesterday I shared a word God had given me about recovery.  Today, I want to expound on that subject a little more. I love the story of David and how he recovered all – I believe we all love that story.  It’s all about getting back what the enemy had stolen from God’s people and […]

Never Give Up on His Promises

Today, God reminded me of something Brailee had once said to me. Although it has been a couple years now, every now and then God reminds me of this night. The kids were spending the night with me, we had a fun afternoon and then it was bedtime. Brailee has this thing she does, probably because […]

Take Action – Recover All

I shared a writing with you how God spoke to me about plunder last week. I want to share a little more with you on that subject this week. Plunder is not a passive thing. It is not something that will automatically happen. Even if God speaks to you to take action and plunder, it won’t magically […]

Having Done All – STAND

Last year, at the beginning of the year, God spoke a phrase to me that I feel is just as relevant for 2022 as it was for 2021. He said, “The anointing is on the stand.” I don’t know why it works this way – but God can say one simple sentence and our spirit […]

Taking Thoughts Captive

Stop and be still for a few moments. Is that difficult? Why?  What thoughts are demanding your attention today? Is your mind filled with thankfulness to God? Praise? The Word of God? Or is your mind spinning with the challenges you are facing? With family issues? Or the chaos we see going on in our […]
