The Church universal is known as the Bride of Christ, God is married to us! God loves us in so many different ways. Today we talk about the intimate love God has for us from the standpoint of our human understanding of a husband. But God is the perfect husband, the husband that does not wait for you to get your credit straight before He says I do! He doesn't wait for you to lose the weight to get in the wedding dress before He say's I do. God, at the foundation of the world decided that His believers were going to be His bride, so He set up provision for us through Christ to solidify the union! Enjoy knowing that God is MARRIED to you no matter what! You are HIS through CHRIST!

Many believers in Christ ask God to "use us for His glory", but I am not sure if we understand what we are actually asking God to do in being "used". The bible is very clear that in order to reign with Christ, we have to first suffer with Him. Maybe not just as He suffered, but there is a level of sacrifice and suffering that produces a maturity and humility in us that MUST be present before we are sent. Send me is a prayer conversation God and I had about the call on my life. Has God sent you? Okay... What has died, is dying or needs to die BEFORE He sends you? 

Life is interesting, and pretty tough.. Especially when you are over 35 and single. I hope tonight's episode will bless your life and expand your understanding as relates to you love life!

There is a freedom in Christ that is unmatched! There is a freedom in knowing that you are in the will of God for your life, a freedom that this world cannot create or even come close to. I challenge you to listen to this episode and allow your heart to be open to God and the freedom that comes with being totally submitted to His plan for your life! Friend, God has a plan for your life that is remarkable and fulfilling! I didn't say it was easy, but it is FREEING!

Do you know that God has chosen you to be used for His glory? No matter how you see yourself, or how many mistakes you've made, you are CHOSEN! Listen to this episode and be encouraged to move forward KNOWING that you are CHOSEN!

Faith is our currency for connecting to heaven and everything God has for us. The bible tells us, without faith it is impossible to please God. If we don't have a true belief in God, how can we pray to God expecting something in return? The bible also says that a double minded man or woman should not expect to receive anything from God. Let's stop being double minded, having faith in stuff and in God at the same time. No! That person will never receive anything from God, but the one who has faith as small as a mustard seed can EXPECT to receive from heaven! How can faith that is almost invisible move heaven? It is not the size of the faith, but the object of the faith, GOD! When our faith is in an undying, every living and eternal GOOD GOD, we can EXPECT God to move on our behalf because we trust Him. Faith produces trust! Enjoy this broadcast today, and allow your faith to be charged as you listen. GOD BLESS YOU! 

Ephesians 4: 8 teaches us that when Christ ascended on high back to the right hand of The Father, He gave gifts to many. Christ has given each and every one of us a gift or several gifts that were placed in you and I to impact our sphere of influence.

You are special beyond compare! Be Blessed!
