The apostle Paul wrote this Scripture about

The apostle Paul wrote this Scripture about rejoicing always IN Him from prison. How could he rejoice in such dire circumstances? The prisons in those days were deplorable places to be, many times an underground bunker with little light and plenty of rats. He was awaiting a sentence on his life, so he was facing uncertainty about the future and possibly death. How could he write: Rejoice in the Lord always?

It is because this joy is in Him, not in the circumstances. This joy is not dependent on our circumstances, it is not dependent on our feelings, it is the joy in who God is, what He loves, how He feels towards me and what His ways are. This is a timeless joy and it can be experienced and known during any season, when things go well and especially when things don’t go very well.

Do you know this joy?

The joy of how much He loves you, how much He desires an intimate relationship with you?

Do you know the joy of thinking about life like He does – loving what is right, hating what is evil?

Do you know the joy that obedience to Him and staying connected to Him brings?

Do you know the joy of watching the Father work amazing things in your life and the life of others?

This joy that can be yours and it is the joy that will give you strength to go through anything.

Have a Awesome Day!

Check your attitude

No matter what the challenge is, if you take it from an attitude of faith and pray about it as you’re doing it, then you should have success. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4 13

Peace be with you.
Have a Awesome day!

I’m Glad

But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

Psalms 5:11

He cares

God Cares

O Lord, You have looked through me and have known me. You know when I sit down and when I get up. You understand my thoughts from far away. You look over my path and my lying down. You know all my ways very well. Even before I speak a word, O Lord, You know it all. You have closed me in from behind and in front. And You have laid Your hand upon me. All You know is too great for me. It is too much for me to understand.

Psalms 139

Live Again

Live Again

Rejection will happen to you somewhere down life’s road someone in your inner circle will stab you through and the agony of your soul will seem to make death sound sweet, is that you quickly when it happened if it happens don’t let the poison of resentment destroy you turn it loose and you place it at the foot of the cross, erase it and replace it with the joy of the Lord that will give you strength and peace. Cast all your cares upon God because God loves and cares for you.

Live Again.

Dry bones

Speak to your dry bones PRAYER AND DECREE 

Father thank you for sending your Holy Spirit to usher us into times of change. Lord move through my life and align me with your Will in this season. Holy Spirit Breathe afresh on every place the sole of my foot treads and bless the work of my hands. Father I decree and declare in the Mighty Name of your Son Jesus that every dry bone in my life is coming back to life. I prophesy: The Winds of Change are accelerating me forward as your promises become manifest in our midst.  Ezekiel 37 1:14

In Christ

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” – Ephesians 2:10 

God has gone before us, preparing the way for us to use the gifts, talents and abilities He created in us for good works. Let this truth sink in and it could be life changing. How differently might we live if we saw each day as filled with opportunities that God has already provided for us to do good works? In His own words Jesus said, “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven,” (Matthew 5:16).

God Loves You

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows
