God Fight’s Your Battles
“For the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.” Deuteronomy 20:4 Take a few minutes to meditate on the word of God. Think positive thoughts, and picture yourself victorious. The Lord our God knows all of our battles. He sees the enemies that we don’t even see. The so -called friend, business partner, or family member could be our greatest hindrance. But God! – God is greater, and he will block all evil along our paths and bring us victory despite the people around us. Pray Lord God, thank you for all that you do. Thank…

God’s Comfort
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4 Take a few minutes to meditate on the word of God. Think positive thoughts, and remember how God has his arms of protection wrapped around you. There is so much destruction and despair around us on a daily basis. Simply going to the grocery store could be disastrous. We have no knowledge of the time or hour when the Lord will call us home. But God has reminded us that we should not have any fear. He provides…

I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 Take a few minutes to meditate on the word of God. Think positive thoughts, and picture yourself pushing past your fears. No matter what is going on in your life, always remember that God is with you. He will never leave you. There is nothing at all that is too hard for God. Keep your head up, and press forward, no matter the circumstance. Pray Lord, thank you for reminding me that you are…

Remembering to be Patient in an Impatient World
How long do you wait to get an answer from the Lord? I was sitting in the doctor’s office and it had been over 30 minutes since the nurse took my vitals, swabbed me for the flu and left the room. I was highly upset that it was taking so long to see the doctor and my patience was running thin! At this point, I was ready to just walk out of the Urgent Care and be content that whatever was wrong with me would work itself out, or I would just take some meds to ease my pain. When I text my husband and told him I was leaving,…

Nobody But Jesus
Today, we had a guest preacher at church. The song the choir sung right before he got up to preach was “Nobody But Jesus” which coincidentally also happened to be the title of his sermon. When the choir was singing, I was excited, praising the Lord, raising my hands and singing along. The song had me in the spirit!! Then the preacher got up to deliver his sermon and within a matter of minutes my whole attitude and demeanor had changed. I received a text message right as the sermon was starting and something that was said annoyed me. A few minutes later I was thinking about a situation that…

Stepping Out On Faith and Facing The Trials Ahead
Did you have the faith to step out and try something new? Have you aimed for that goal that felt impossible? Did you give it your all and still fail? Guess what….it’s okay! When we take the first step out on faith, it’s not always going to be perfect. Everything isn’t going to happen 100% like we envisioned it in our head. Everything can be going exactly as planned, and BAM! A mistake occurs and you feel like your life is ruined. Or so you thought! There are going to be days when you want to give up because going for that goal seems too hard. You put your blood,…

Step Out- Walk in your purpose! (No Comfort Zone)
Step out your comfort zone and walk in your purpose. Being content in your current situation can either help you or hinder you. When God has placed you somewhere and it’s not where YOU expected to be, remain content. We can’t move in our own time, but in God’s time. However, if God keeps knocking at your door, on your heart, and making things uncomfortable for you, then it’s time to move. Get up and act! Stop sitting around expecting change when you haven’t put forth any effort! Yes, we are all expecting miracles, and they happen every day, but faith without works is dead! How are you pleasing God?…
