There is a saying "you're your own worst enemy" and sadly for most of us it's true. We either "think more highly of ourselves than we should" and don't see the need to seek the Lord about everything or we allow the enemy to cause us not to believe that we "can do all things through Christ" as we minimize our effectiveness to the Kingdom. The enemy is truly on his job, but many of us are helping him by our behavior. I want to help each of us to stop assisting the enemy in hindering our progress.

The trials and adversities of life are never pleasant, but in them we're given the opportunity to learn the secret of dependence on the Lord. Just as gold has to go through intense fire to burn off the imprurities, God allows us to enter the furnance of affliction, so that we can be purified and refined spiritually. Jesus gives Peter a powerful lesson and we too can learn how to benefit from seasons of sifting.

Life has a way of occasionally dealing you a hand that is difficult to handle. It doesn't matter how holy you're living or how well educated and prepared you may be: troubles, tests, trials, and tragedy will visit you from time to time. Their visit is not an indictment on you as a Believer, but how you handle them will indict you if you're talking stronger than you're walking.

Heartbreaks are an inescapable reality in all of our lives. At some point in your life you will encounter a broken heart. The problem is that some of us have never gotten over the heartbreak and it is negatively impacting other areas of your life.

Latter Glory

As we move into a new year and look back over the one that just passed, many of us are wondering why we didn't move faster or further. There are some who are even frustrated with themselves because of the lack of progress that they are personally experienced.

Go Beyond the Veil

Have you ever noticed that life doesn't always turn out the way that you planned? No matter how well you thought things through, situations and circumstances don't always follow your plan. To be honest, sometimes life seems like a series of disappointments and shattered dreams. The question is what do you do when life takes you off the course that you expected to follow? The wise men teach us some valuable lessons about what to do when the Star leads to a stable.

Genuine, biblical faith is a miracle in and of itself. It's not something that we possess naturally, but a gift from God that when truly accepted enables us to be saved and empowers us to do the impossible. When it's real, we have benefits and power that are mid blowing. For that reason, I am convinced that most of us are living without benefits and I'm on assignment to help you tap into what's rightfully yours. Genuine biblical faith allows you to receive answers to prayers that seem impossible and to experience the supernatural power of God working on your behalf. The key to the power is "biblical faith" as God is not moved by faith that is not biblically based.

A failure is someone who lives in a constant state of failure. As Believers, that is not an option for us as God has promised to "cause us to triumph" and anything less is out of the will of God. It doesn't mean that we won't experience setbacks and/ or letdowns, but a lifestyle of failure is unacceptable and we've got to refuse to lose.
