Do what God said!
One night my son said something so powerful to me, I sat speechless but it really had me thinking. There was so much authority in the way he said it, I know it wasn’t just from him. After reading a WhatsApp message, I was trying to figure out what decision I should take concerning him. Then he said to me, “but mame you already said to me that I am not going anywhere until after exams, so why are you changing your mind now?” Then he just went back to what he was doing. I was like wow! I didn’t say anything much to his reply but it really had…

Eternal Love
Reflect on the love of God. If you have faced an extremely demanding week. If you are stressed and burdened with life issues. If you did not have enough time to reflect on God’s Word. If you need help in any area of your life. If you are faced with a health situation. If you are dealing with family issues. If you just need a confirmation that Jesus is with you. Reflect on His Love today. The situations you face daily does not eliminate God’s presence. He is right there with you. No matter how stressful life can become He is right there.

Know When its Time to Move on
Let go of anything in your life that adds no value. It’s keeping you away from what is truly valuable. The more you stay connected to what lacks value, the less you see what is valuable. You know if something is valuable by it’s fruits. What is truly valuable produces much good fruit in all seasons and whatever is done truly prospers. What is not valuable acts like it can produce fruit and may even produce fruit but this fruit does not last. Here are a few questions to ask yourself to help determine if something is really valuable. Is this thing; job, career, relationship, opportunity, place, ministry, program…you name…

He Doesn’t Want Perfection
Too often we hold back on what God has already told us to do because we don’t feel good enough. We don’t feel qualified. We worry about what others may think, the questions they may ask, simply, the judgement they may pass. I sometimes find myself fitting into this category. God tells me to do a thing and out of fear, anxiety and doubt I begin to question what He said. I tend to forget who He says I am and even so who He is. I forget that I am Fearfully and Wonderfully made. Marvelous are the works of His hands. I would get so caught up in the…

Shalom
Our days can be filled with worries, stress and fear. Peace is the absence of fear. Peace is resting and quieting yourself before God and trusting in Him completely regardless of our current situation. We are also commanded to live in peace with everyone as much as it is possible. We need to always do our best to put aside our own desires and seek the desires of God’s will which will bring peace in our everyday life. Let’s review what God has to say about “peace”. In all we do let us hold fast to the unchanging hands of God and rest in Him completely because in Him we…

Peace
I want to leave this verse here to just encourage someone. Someone who might be going through a tough time. Someone who might be afraid of the unknown. Someone who might be gripped by fear. Well right now I come against the spirit of fear, you have to leave Now!! Leave now in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Fear doesn’t have any power over you, because God did not give you a spirit of fear, but one of Power, Love and a Sound Mind!!!! I declare this in your life today, in Jesus Name. Fear has to bow before the presence of the Almighty. Speak the Word of God over…

Transition
As I lay on my bed, a million and one thoughts come rushing to mind. I question why is all “this” happening to me?” Everything seems to be malfunctioning one after the other. If it’s not one thing it’s another. At first I chose to pay little attention to it but things get to a point when it really touches that last nerve and I can no longer bare it anymore. I soon began to question why must I let go of certain things or people. Honestly, I do not fully understand at this point. At this point of life, things make you feel like you are in a maze.…

A New Thing
One of the things about God, is that He isn’t a talker. What He says He will do, He always does. He says in Isaiah 55: 11 (paraphrased) that when His words leave His mouth it can’t return unto Him void. In order words; whatever His says must be accomplished. It’s impossible for Him to lie, therefore what He says He will do, He does. In this season of life, the Lord is doing a new thing. We know that He has done marvelous things for us in the past but He says to forget all that. Pretty much the same thing He told the children of Israel. Forget about…
