Last week, I was listening to a teaching when I heard a scripture that captured my spirit. The scripture is found in Numbers 27:7; The daughters of Zelophehad speak what is right. You shall surely give them a possession of inheritance among their father’s brothers and cause the inheritance of their father to pass to […]
Just this week, a friend, actually, the friend in this story, reminded me of this writing. I could not get it off my mind and felt led of the Lord to share it with you today. I pray it is a blessing to you. On Friday night I was sitting at home relaxing when I […]
A victorious life, it’s what we all strive for, right? Over the weekend an email from a partner came to mind as I was thinking about victorious living. Nothing blesses me more than hearing that our readers have been blessed or their lives have been changed by one of our writings. That’s why we do […]
What do others see in you? These words were coming to me from several different sources, even my granddaughter, Brailee, who was just nine years old at the time. However, it wasn’t until I shared it with a friend that it impacted me in a powerful way. After telling her that I kept hearing the […]
Recently, someone shared an online post with me. I do not know the author of the post as it was only shared with me, I apologize for that. But it is so powerful that I wanted to share it with you today. Perhaps, you are feeling tired today. If so, don’t let go of your […]
One day, I had an experience with God that was possibly the strangest way God has ever spoken to me. Before this happened, I had spent several days in the presence of the Lord, seeking His face, seeking His presence, and seeking His direction for some upcoming plans for the ministry. I had also been […]
“God knows my heart.” This is often the response we give when we say or do something wrong. Especially when we know it was wrong. We say… “well, God knows my heart.” I heard this statement the other day after speaking with someone about thoughtless words they had spoken in haste. When I heard the […]
“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 someone. You cannot be pitiful and powerful at the same time – you will have to choose. I […]
I was sitting at my desk working one day when I received a text from a friend. The text said, “award winning chili simmering on the stove.” I had to laugh. As I laughed, I thought to myself, “Deborah took my recipe, entered it into a contest, won the ribbon and now calls it her […]
Over the past few weeks, I have found myself reflecting on the topic of anger with increasing frequency. It has become apparent to me that anger seems to be a prevalent force in our society today, affecting countless individuals in various ways. During this period of contemplation, I have noticed that many ministers have been […]
Many of you may recall the dreams I shared with you in the past. In those dreams, God revealed to me a home that was not ordinary, but extraordinary—a place overflowing with treasures. Room after room, each space was filled with an abundance of beautiful and valuable items. Every corner of the house held something […]
Many of us have ministers and leaders that we admire. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. It reminds me of the scripture that says, follow me as I follow Christ. (1 Cor. 11:1) That being said, just as many of us think we can never reach their level. That we cannot do the things […]
Every now and then we get an offering with a note that says, I know this is a small offering. Or, I know this isn’t much. I don’t like that the enemy makes our partners feel that way. Mainly because it is not true. God must have something to work with. When we give Him […]
There is a building at the bottom of a hill near my daughter, Breanne’s road. This building has been there for as long as I can remember. It has always been an eye sore. It was one of, if not the most, junky looking buildings in our town. Numerous businesses have been in this building, […]
In this fast-paced world we live in today, waiting has become increasingly difficult. People are accustomed to instant results and immediate responses, and the idea of pausing or delaying action often feels uncomfortable and inconvenient. The desire for everything to happen quickly can make it challenging to accept the concept of waiting, especially when it […]
I was listening to a preacher one weekend not too long ago. He was talking about when the iron curtain fell. He shared how the year before the fall of this wall, there were prophetic voices all over the world prophesying that the wall was about to fall. He shared how everyone was excited about […]
I was thinking about people of faith the other day. I was thinking about how it was when I was first born again, it has been over 30 years. Back in those days, faith was taught everywhere. At least every place I was involved. I heard faith, faith, and more faith. I had so much […]
“We have reached our tipping point!” Those are the words that went off in my spirit when I read a text from a friend one Sunday. Her text said, I just heard; “our prayers are going to start paying off.” My first thought was, “that is a good word.” Yet, even as that thought went […]
This morning, while checking messages, I listened to one of our partners share with me that she had been emailing me to let me know she was in the hospital. I did not receive the email. I quickly called her and prayed with her over the phone. As I hung up, I heard these words, […]
This morning, I want to share a word from my friend, Karen Hardin, I know it will bless you…it certainly did me. There are seasons in our lives where it can feel as if we are slogging through thick mud. Every step takes enormous energy, and it feels as if little progress is made. That […]
