Based on: Psalm 16:11 (GNT)

You will show me the path that leads to life;  your presence fills me with joy and brings me pleasure forever.

Saints of God, we spend too much time trying to forget when we really should be focusing on filling up our lives with the presence of God. Destructive thoughts can only occupy empty spaces. The fullness of the glory of God leaves no room for anything or anyone. Therefore, when the presence of God enters in all squatters have to leave.

Based On: Hebrews 12:1 (VOICE)

Excerpt:

We don’t pretend that we were never victimized in the past. We do, however, allow God’s power to  transform our mental and emotional mind set. Such that we no longer replay our sufferings over and over again. Likewise, the destructive behaviors that are the results of our past victimization, will have to release us and we will release them.

Based on: Exodus 14:10 (NIV)

Excerpt:

We started  2023 with God ordained intentions to do whatever it takes to live into the life that God created for us. We are over halfway there. There is nothing left for us in the Egypt of our past. Our land of promise is in our present and our future through Jesus the Christ. So, we can’t stop now. We must keep moving into God’s promises for our lives.

Based On: Luke:8:42b-48 (NIV)

As Jesus was on his way, the crowds almost crushed him.  And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years, but no one could heal her. She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

When we are children we are often asked the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” No one ever asks the question, “What will your purpose in life be when you grow up?”

Based on: Mark 10:45

“…For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,  and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Saints of God, Jesus’ death is a partial payment of the ransom for our salvation. It is His resurrection that satisfies the full payment of the sins of humanity; once and for all.

Based On: Psalm 62: 11:12 (CEB)

God has spoken one thing —  make it two things —  that I myself have heard: that strength belongs to God,  and faithful love comes from you, my Lord--  and that you will repay everyone according to their deeds.

Excerpt:

The Psalmist knew of God’s goodness the 1st time heaven spoke, but it was not until the 2nd time heaven spoke -- that the Psalmist was confidently sure. Who wouldn’t serve a God who tells me of Heaven’s goodness and then comes back a second time to make sure that I got the message right.

Based On: Numbers 23:19 (GW)

My Sisters and Brothers, it is God’s responsibility to fulfill heaven’s promise to us. It is our responsibility to walk into God’s fulfillment of heaven’s promise. We must be poised, positioned, and prepared. For the One who makes the promise will surely keep the promise. Perhaps, not in our time, but always on time.

Based On: Matthew 6:9 (CEB)

When Jesus says, “Our Father,” He is establishing the relationship between Himself, you, and I as the children of God. It is an assertion of relationship between the Creator and the Created. Jesus’ intent is to have us understand that we are praying to a living, loving Spirit who knows  us by our names.

Based On: Acts 20:9-10 (NIV)

Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third story and was picked up dead.  Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms around him. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “He’s alive!”

Based on: Acts 2:3-4 (NIV)

They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
