SECRET WEAPON?




For some it's their knowledge, their smile, being practical, etc. But Acts 6:4 says... 
but we will give ourselves 
continually to prayer, 
and to the ministry of the word.

 We try to connect to something beyond our reach in the physical realm not realizing that there is something greater than that realm. God is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent and He wants us to connect to Him so that we have the power. He is our power source. 

 So how is your prayer life? When was the last time you prayed to God for His guidance? and I am not talking about your personal agenda and saying "in Jesus name" as a stamp of approval.

 We are not promoting slavery with God's stamp on it. God loves us unconditionally but don't believe one second that He is our slave! Sometimes the answer to our prayer will be 'No'. 

 We envy persons who seem to be in a situation that we were praying for ourselves but as I said, His answer can be 'No', so your success will be defined by your formula or God's formula. No one is perfect, only God is so let your formula; your secret weapon be the Almighty God. 

 Do you pray each day? Or do you disconnect every time you get busy?  Don't let distractions and frustrations prevent you from staying connected.

 So I urge you to take care of business and every area of your life in the right way.
Wherefore, brethren, 
look ye out among you seven men of 
honest report, 
full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, 
whom we may appoint over this business.

Acts 6:3

SOLITUDE IS WHAT MAKES US STRONGER

With so many things happening around us, what am I supposed to do? This is a question that we all ask and only some persons will have answers to. Solitude is a time for reflection, focus, goal setting, dreaming, relaxing and just time away from others. We do need this sometimes as it helps us to recharge for the next level of our lives. While this sounds comforting and warm, for some, this process is more like a wilderness experience that creates bigger problems. To some this is a time of turmoil, inner fights, panic attacks and sadness because you are now left alone with your thoughts and your thoughts may not be healthy at a time like this where the news around you is all panic in various aspects of society.  Since the beginning of the COVID pandemic, we have seen a world we once knew, shutdown, restart and shutdown again as persons get sick, health workers and other essential workers become overwhelmed, essential items become scarce, parents facing a dilemma of having to deal wi...

GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOUR DREAMS!

The Holy Spirit has a time when it reveals things about our friends, our enemies, family and even our dreams! How many times have we toiled in order to reap the harvest in our lives and in our future. We go beyond ourselves and we run before God, even when God says "Slow Down!". Did you know that God has your worries all figured out? Therefore it makes no sense to worry. You prepare and keep working until it is time to reap but do not try and speed up the process. The quality of our lives are so important yet many of us remember when it is too late. So STOP! SLOW DOWN! TAKE YOUR TIME! God wants to walk with you.  Oh house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the Lord. (Isaiah 2:5) At times, the waiting period for our blessings may get us weary, but it is at that moment when we are completely broken that we get our breakthrough. Continue working and walking with the Lord. We all have big dreams, continue to dream big and be not afraid of the endless possib...

Before you head out!

  What if you woke up with only the things you thanked God for? I saw that post today and I realized that this question or statements similar to this, are normally overlooked. We as human beings like to be where we are appreciated and celebrated but not where we are just tolerated. We get frustrated when we give things our all and sometimes even going the extra mile for persons who did not ask for our help but needed it! So, we get upset and decide to lessen what we do to teach them a lesson.  So back to the question.... What if you woke up with only the things you thanked God for?  meaning, what if your life is a clear representation of the value you place on people and things? We may have eyes, ears, mouth, legs, hands, a heart or essentials like air or water. Now when it is taken away, we beg God for the miracles we read about in the Bible. People have disabilities due to accidents, birth defects, chronic illnesses and now COVID. All of these things affect what is thou...
