Are you holding onto a pain/hurt that you need to let go of? Was it a word spoken over you that caused you to doubt yourself, or maybe it was a painful breakup. Whatever it is, it’s time to receive your healing. You’ve held onto that pain, that hurt long enough. Release it to God and allow Him to bring healing into your life.

Proverbs 18:21 says: The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit. Your words have power, it can bring lid or death to a situation, it can bring pain or healing, it can also tears others down and your words can build someone up. The choice is yours, you can choose how you want your words to effect not only others but also yourself as well. It’s up to you.

In 1 Samuel 25: 1-42 David acted in kindness towards Nabal, but his kindness was not appreciated. Nabal responded to David in a way that David felt disrespected. So David responded in anger for how he was treated. Have you ever been disrespected, or treated badly after you help someone or did something good for someone only to be disrespected? Did you try to take matters into your own hand or did you allow God to handle the situation? Well this is what I’m going to be talking about on today’s episode.

We’ve all have reminisced about the good old days how things use to be. We look back on our childhood and all we’ve experienced. You looked back on past relationships, mistakes and also family memories. And it’s ok to sometimes look back on those things on how far God has brought you. But there are times when we need to stop looking back and clinging to what was, so that we can move onto what God wants us to go. Lot’s wife looked back, she was clinging to what was even after she was told not to look back and because she looked back she turned into a pillar of salt. My question is what has God told you to walk away from and to not to look back?

The woman with the alabaster box gave to Jesus what was of value and expensive. She didn’t hold back, she freely gave to Him what was of value to her. How many times do we hold back our best from God? What’s keeping you from giving God your best.

Fear is not of God and because it’s not of God it is a bondage. Anything that’s of God, that comes from God, it gives you freedom. The Bible says in Isaiah 41:10 (Amp version) Do not fear (anything) for I am with you; Do not be afraid for I am your God. I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you; I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand (a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation). Just know that no matter what your fearful of, God is with you.

How many times have we’ve exposed someone’s sin, downfall or struggle through gossiping about them. I know we’ve all have gossip about other people, including me. Ham (Noah’s son) choose to expose his father’s sin but Noah’s other two sons( Shem and Japheth) choose to cover. Which one are you Ham or Shem and Japheth. Listen as I talk about how we need to cover someone instead of exposing them.

Nothing is going to change I’m your life until you make a step. We have allowed our disability, lack of education, our past, our up bringing, procrastination, laziness and self doubt to keep us from accomplishing our goals. You’ve wasted to much time, it’s time to make a move. No more waiting on someone else to do it for you, no more complaining and no more excuses; it’s time to get up.

In Matthew 5:14-16 Jesus says that we are the light of the world and that we should not hide it. If we live for Christ, we will glow like lights. You never know who you are going to impact. God might put you in a situation where you need to be a light to someone, through an encouraging word, a smile, a hug or just a listening ear. Don’t hide your light, let it shine for Jesus.

How many times have you told God that He’s enough, or have you ever? We say to others and to ourselves that you’re enough, because we’re human and we sometimes struggle with self worth, feelings of inadequacy. But when we tell God He is enough, you’re saying God I choose You over everything, nothing can take Your place. We’ve place so many things before God and it’s about time we tell Him, He’s enough.
