‘Position yourself.’ These are the first words I heard as I opened my eyes on Sunday morning. I have a great anticipation of the days ahead, therefore these words ‘position yourself’ put me on high alert in my spirit. As the day went on, I could not get these words out of my mind. My […]
My heart is overwhelmed with the goodness of God today! I am overflowing with thanksgiving today! Why? I just am. Nothing spectacular has happened, yet I am just so very thankful that God saw me and chose me for His own…He plucked me out of my former life and into His glorious kingdom, for that […]
Learning to bake homemade bread has become a passion of mine. That being said, I have tried to bake a good, light, fluffy loaf of bread for over a year. Seriously, over one year. I have tried more recipes than you can imagine. I tried all those recipes where people would review them and say, […]
Today, I was thinking about the writing I sent out on Friday, I pondered how many prophetic voices have said the solar eclipse would herald a new season, a season of seven years of plenty. If this is truth, we can look back to the life of Joseph and see that when God declared seven […]
Friends, be very careful that the little things in your life are repented of and dealt with – if they are not – they will certainly affect big things – envy will rot your bones – a broken spirit will dry your bones – if you don’t forgive, you are not forgiven – you will […]
Quite often we get emails from people who have sown seeds and are waiting on their harvest. You may be one of those, I know for myself personally, there are some harvests I have seen in my life and others I am still standing in faith for, waiting patiently. I received an email from a […]
In the book of John, we find Jesus talking with His disciples. He was talking to them about His death, even though they didn’t get understand it. In John 14, Jesus was talking to His disciples about the place He was about to go to. He said to them in verse 4; And where I […]
It seems to be the theme this week, and it all began with God speaking to me through little Brailee. What’s the theme? To press, to push. I know you may not want to hear it, neither did I, however, after I meditated on this for a couple days, a friend reminded me of a […]
I was watching a conference the other night when I suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd! It was Brother Norvel Hayes, my mentor for several years, and under whose ministry I am ordained. It was at a Kenneth Copeland conference. As Kenneth was teaching, he suddenly saw Brother Norvel and walked over to […]
“Example is not the main thing in influencing others, it’s the only thing.” Albert Schweitzer said this and I couldn’t agree more. Tuesday afternoon I had just arrived home from the grocery store. I was loading up my arms to carry everything in with as few trips as possible. It’s weird, but it has always […]
Is the power of God at work in your life? Of course, it is! I was thinking about the power of God today. Most of the time when we think about the power of God we tend to think about the demonstration of miracles, signs and wonders. And that is indeed the manifestation of the […]
Your day is pretty much formed by how you spend your first hour. One positive thought in the morning can change your entire day. These are two quotes I read today while studying for this writing. And it is true, the morning sets the tone for the rest of your day. I was thinking of […]
But I have this charge against you, that you have left your first love, you have lost the depth of love that you first had for Me. Revelation 2:4 (Amplified) This morning as I awoke, I was thinking about last night’s prayer call and how God desires that we put Him first in all things. […]
I do not know why God has me in this vein of teaching this week, but He does. It seems to me that He desires to set us up for a blessing. To that I say, ‘so be it Lord.’ I was sitting in Bryson, my grandsons room, a few days ago helping his Mom […]
Do you realize that the presence of God is the absolute greatest gift we can give as believers? If you have the tangible presence of God in your life you can change lives, including your own. You can bring peace into a situation that is chaos, if you have the presence of God in your […]
Today, I want to share with you something Kelita sent me last week. This is her study and it is SO good. Enjoy! The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. This is probably one of the most recognized scriptures in the Bible. We hear it often at funerals because it is comforting. But […]
From the emails I have been receiving lately, I would think some of our people are under great challenge and pressure. For days, I too, have had days of great pressure. And it has felt like something was hindering my way or holding me back. After a particularly exhausting day, I lay down on my […]
You can only hear a statement so many times before it gets your attention. This is what happened to me last week, when Kelita would continually say ‘what have you done today to grow your faith?’ One day I wanted to respond ‘are you kidding me! I am writing motivations, studying for those motivations, I […]
Who doesn’t love the game of I Spy? I play it quite often with my grandkids. This past weekend, as I was driving them home, Brailee yelled from the back seat, ‘let’s play I Spy, Nana!’ I said ‘okay, you go first’ and the game began. Brailee took her turn and Bryson and I guessed […]
Over the past few weeks I have been pressing into God more than ever. Because of this, I feel I am hearing Him more than ever and more clearly than before. Recently, I walked into my back door, as I did I heard the Lord softly speak to me. He simply said, ‘I am coming. […]
