Psalms 103:2 tells us to , "Bless the Lord, oh our soul and forget not his benefits! Let me tell you, it pays to stay in faith! It pays to stay in obedience to God! It pays to do right and not allow your faith to waiver! God is up to something, and it's going to take a "Right Now Faith" to bring it to pass! God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him and His blesses are Ephesians 3:20 type blessings! Don't listen to the world's way of thinking! Tap into your faith jar and stand bold on His promises because His benefits are plentiful, and it PAYS to STAY in FAITH! Won't God do it!!! I know that He has, He can, and He will!

Be Blessed and Definitely Encouraged!

Every last one of us are facing some type of battle. And even though our battles are unique and be seem similar in some ways, we can often feel all alone. But no matter the trial, despite the opposition, and regardless of the enemy's attempt to get you to give up... we all can TRY JESUS! You see He has the answers to every situation! His is not limited to one place or just for a certain group! No! Jesus is the answer for EVERY circumstance that we will ever face! And the best part about TRYING JESUS is that He has no respector of person! What He will do for me, He can do for you! And you don't have to wait to call on Him because His line is never busy and He will always do what's best for you!! So I dare you to TRY JESUS and watch the weight of the world that you are carrying dissipate as His divine power over takes you!

There's a shifting in the atmosphere that is taking place. There is a new era of change permeating the atmosphere. Old habits and old ways of thinking are being challenged by a spiritual resilency! There is a shifting in our environments, communication, associations, positions, and leadership. There is a heighten sense of spiritual awareness, wisdom, and maturity. God is raising up a standard that only He can orchestrate to fulfill that which He has proclaimed! This shift is necessary and carries divine purpose! It will propel you from your right now to your greater! Don't fear the SHIFT... but press toward it with expectancy knowing that He that begun a good work in you will perform it until the end!

God is with you in every situation. There is nothing that catches God by surprise. Nothing that you will ever face or encounter that is greater that then POWER of GOD in your life! So, don't give up, give it to God! For He can do anything but fail!

Your Deliverance is Here! Whatever you may be facing, or whatever you may be struggling with.... God has to power to deliver you from it/ in it! You don't have to wonder how He will do it, when He will do it, or where the help will come from! All you have to do is give it to Him, and watch Him bring you out better than before! So stop complaining about it, talking to everyone that will listen about it, and give it to God so He can handle it! It's too heavy for you, but God is equipped to handle everything that concerns you! Your Deliverance is Here...did you hear me? He is waiting for you to stop trying to do it all by yourself. But it's up to you to let Him in so that He can lead and guide you to victory!

Shh! God is speaking! He is speaking when we least expect it. He is speaking when we feel all hope is gone. He is speaking when things are going well! The truth about it, He is always speaking to us because He wants the best for us! But are we truly listening? Seek God like never before! The time is now to develop a closer walk with Him. Not just during your valley moments but also during your mountaintop experiences! We can't keep doing it our way and expecting God to bless it! We have to allow Him to lead and guide us all the way if we want to be victorious! He is waiting... will you allow him to dwell within your heart so that He can usher you into a life of abundance!

GOD "IS" OUR HEAVENLY FATHER! He is the beginning and the ending! He is Jehovah Jireh - our provider! He is Jehovah Rapha - God our Healer! He is Jehovah Shalom - God our Peace! He is El Elyon - God Most High! He is El Roi - God who sees! He is El Shaddai - God Almighty! He is Elohim - Our God! He is Omniscient, Omnipotent, and Omnipresent! He cares for us, loves us, redirects, us, blesses us, and chastens us! Thank you Father for all things and everything that you have done, is doing, and will do in my life! I can't ever repay you, but I can continuously praise you, obey you, seek you, and spend time with you to show my gratefulness! Thank you for being a GREAT GOD and a GREAT FATHER! Because of your grace and mercy, I shall lack nothing and I don't ever have to work about being forsaken!

God's Favor often times attracts attacks, but it will not stop the plan that God has predestined for your life. Through these attacks, trials and tribulations, unwelcomed situations, and stressful circumstances, God wants us to yield o His way and give Him our concerns. You see, the attacks are not meant to break you but prepare you for your next level of greater! Don't be so deceived by the smokescreens of the enemy that you forget that even through the attacks, God will always have your back if you trust Him!

Lead like Jesus: Be the Example is not just a title, it's a lifestyle. Every day we have an opportunity to respond like Him. It is so easy to respond like the world, but we have to ask God to help guide our decisions, and gird our reactions to injustices that we face. Of course we are human, but we have the power to win in every situation. For this is not a physical battle that we fight, but a spiritual one that requires that our faith be anchored in the Lord, and our hope be rooted in His word! We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus even when we face challenges that come to sway our faith. Yet, if we hold on and stay the course, God will make our enemies our footstool... not for us to gloat but for us to rejoice that God is still and always will be in FULL CONTROL! Don't fret...God has not failed us yet!! Be Encouraged!

If we are going to show some sign, we must make sure our talk and walk aligns! Listen, the fruit of the spirit should be evident in all of our lives. Galatians 5:22 tells us "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law". Even though we all possess some character flaws, we can allow God to create a "change in us" to help us develop positive character traits. The goal is to be better today than you were yesterday. Our faith walk is a daily journey. We have to deny our flesh daily, and allow God to work on the inside of us so that the evidence can be produce to others.
