“Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, “I will take revenge; I will pay them back,” says the Lord.” Romans 12:19 NLT Before we begin, let’s look at a perfect example of how we should behave when we’re being attacked or wrongly accused, especially by those we trust. Nothing in God’s Word is written by chance, all scripture was deliberately God breathed for every individual and every scenario. Our God is very i

8/30/21-GOD SIZED DREAMS
Do you have a God sized dream? A dream only He can fulfill? Don’t despise or give up on it. If He’s the architect then it doesn’t matter how long it takes it will come to pass. If you’re able to make it happen without Him then it’s not big enough. He specializes in what gives Him glory. Just take a listen to this Psalm the entire universe brags on their Creator, and so should the dreams He gives. “The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display His craftsmanship. Day

8/27/21-THINKING ABOUT GOING BACK? DON’T!
“Later, Jesus appeared again to the disciples beside the Sea of Galilee. This is how it happened. Several of the disciples were there—Simon Peter, Thomas (nicknamed the Twin), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples. Simon Peter said, “I’m going fishing.” “We’ll come, too,” they all said. So they went out in the boat, but they caught nothing all night. At dawn Jesus was standing on the beach, but the disciples couldn’t see who He was. He c

8/26/21-HE’S MORE THAN AN EXPERIENCE. HE’S OUR TRANSFORMATION TO DO GOOD WORKS.
A life transformed by the saving grace of Jesus Christ is more than the prayer we prayed to receive Him as Lord. Once we enter into a personal relationship with Him by His Spirit, everything changes. Selfishness, pride, stubbornness and wanting our own way begins to dissipate over time. We’re kinder, more thoughtful and considerate of others. The new birth experience begins the transformation into a new creation, but we must be careful not to slip back into our old attitudes

8/25/21-FAITH + WORKS = RIGHTEOUS?🤔
I’m not righteous because I have faith. I’m righteous because I do what faith requires. “What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do? So you see, faith by itself isn’t e

8/24/21-LAMED FEET UNDER THE KING’S TABLE
“One day David asked, “Is anyone in Saul’s family still alive—anyone to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” He summoned a man named Ziba, who had been one of Saul’s servants. “Are you Ziba?” the king asked. “Yes sir, I am,” Ziba replied. The king then asked him, “Is anyone still alive from Saul’s family? If so, I want to show God’s kindness to them.” Ziba replied, “Yes, one of Jonathan’s sons is still alive. He is crippled in both feet.” “Where is he?” the king ask

8/23/21-HAVE YOU MADE ROOM FOR SATAN?
Oh boy! I can almost hear the rumblings in the Spirit. She’s done lost it. But have I? The Bible is very clear about who our enemy is, what his plans are, what his activities are and who he seeks. I’ll grant you this observation about birds, you can’t stop them from flying over your heads, but you can stop them from nesting. The only possible way for them to set up shop, is by your permission. You have to surrender your head to be used as a nesting place. The same applies to

8/20/21-OUR SERVICE TO GOD IS NOT A GAME!
“Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu put coals of fire in their incense burners and sprinkled incense over them. In this way, they disobeyed the Lord by burning before Him the wrong kind of fire, different than He had commanded. So fire blazed forth from the Lord’s presence and burned them up, and they died there before the Lord. Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord meant when He said, ‘I will display My holiness through those who come near Me. I will display My glory be

8/19/21-IF YOU WANT TO ESTABLISH GOD’S REPUTATION, YOU MIGHT HAVE TO RISK YOURS
Interesting concept huh? But a formula for spiritual maturity and growth. An opportunity to decrease and allow Him to increase. The benefits outweigh the risks for self promotion and grandeur. It may even lead to ostracism or death, but if it is for obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ, it is worth it. Let’s begin with a familiar scripture. “In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. He was a devout, God-fearing man,

8/18/21-SWEATING IT
The first place we ever read the word sweat is found in the Book of Genesis after Adam failed to defend God’s integrity before his wife in the Garden of Eden. As a part of their punishment for ignoring God’s command Adam was told that by the sweat of his brow, he would make a living. Genesis 3:19 Sweat or sweating requires exertion or laboring-Something Adam never knew. Everything was provided for them. Their job didn’t require them to sweat. They were caretakers of God’s cre

8/17/21-THE HEART OF SUBMISSION
Judges 11 If you don’t enjoy your own company, then there’s a strong possibility no one else will either. A true test that you’re trusting God for your mate is you’re preparing not planning. “And Jephthah made a vow to the Lord, and said, “If You will indeed deliver the people of Ammon into my hands, then it will be that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the people of Ammon, shall surely be the Lord’s, and I will offer it up a

8/16/21-SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE
What do those words really mean? How do we speak the truth in love? The first thing we need to do is get rid of a judgmental attitude. We can’t speak the truth if it’s riddled with judgment. We must as the scripture warns consider that we too are capable of committing the very same act of disobedience. Whenever God chooses to use us to bring correction to anyone, it must always begin from a place of humility. I had to learn these principles the hard way. Experience became my

8/14/21-I WILL BE YOUR WALL
“[Gathered with her family and the wedding guests in her mother's cottage, the bride said to her stepbrothers, When I was a little girl, you said] We have a little sister and she has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister on the day when she is spoken for in marriage? If she is a wall [discreet and womanly], we will build upon her a turret [a dowry] of silver; but if she is a door [bold and flirtatious], we will enclose her with boards of cedar. [Well] I am a wall [with

8/12/21-BELIEVER IS NOT A TITLE YOU WEAR, IT’S A LIFESTYLE YOU LIVE.
My only explanation for Christians who don’t believe is that they haven’t had a personal intimate encounter with Jesus. It’s almost an oxymoron to use the words Christian and unbelief in the same sentence. I say almost because Jesus had followers who saw Him after His resurrection and still doubted. Matthew 28:17 People believe a lot of different things. They believe in magic, they believe their horoscopes, they believe in miracles or the supernatural, they believe in each ot

8/11/12-WHERE WERE YOU?
“But of course you know all this! For you were born before it was all created, and you are so very experienced!” Job 38:21 NLT—Drop the mic 🎤 To those who argue that the Bible is antiquated and out of touch, the Author has a question for you. Where were you when….? Solomon penned the words that we’ve all used from time to time. “ There's nothing new under the sun.” God has a revolving door set up. Every generation experiences something of what He’s written. The Bible

8/10/21-THE THIRTY DAY SETUP….Boomeranged 😁
The enemy is so predictable. He thinks he’s so smart but his plans always backfire badly. The problem with jealousy is it always destroys those who practice it. Whether you’re a sinner or a saint, the results will always be the same. Self destruction. This is why we are warned in scripture to put it away. Ephesians 4:31; 1 Peter 2:1.This isn’t a suggestion, it's a command. Because the Lord knows that if we indulge in such behaviors it will ultimately destroy not just us, but

8/9/21-WAIT, OBEY, ENQUIRE
Ever heard this saying “haste makes waste?” Even if you haven't, I'm sure you’ve experienced it at least once in your life. The Lord is not slack concerning His promises. He’s never late, He means what He says, and says what He means. There are quite a few biblical leaders who learned that the hard way. Mary shared a secret at a wedding in Canaan. “Whatever He tells you to do, do it.” God isn’t into embellishments, neither is He into substitutions. We don’t get to come up wit

8/6/21-BORN ROYAL
If we truly believed that we’d never live another day as a commoner. The day we gave our hearts and lives in full surrender to Jesus Christ we became royalty. If it’s true in the earthly monarchy, then it’s true in the heavenly kingdom. We may choose to step away or even try denying who we are by ignoring our responsibility as His children, but the title is written in blood and cannot be changed. You can try to live as a commoner and even dabble in other things to fit in like

8/5/21-OPPORTUNITY IN THE CHAOS
Say what!? That’s what I said. Lol I asked the Holy Spirit what scripture or scriptures would apply to that title. He shared a few. I’ll begin/end with a very familiar one. We miss opportunities whenever we only see the wrong being done to us or the situation as “there’s no way this can be God” but most often than not, God is using those seemingly horrible things to stretch and mature us for greater things. Just consider where most of us are right now. I shared in an earlier

8/4/21-TURN OFF THE SCOREBOARD
“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NLT Are you good at forgiving or better at keeping score of wrongs done by others? Forgiving is hard only when we try to go about it our way. Forgiving God’s way is an act of obedience more so than the will to do it. We forgive because we were forgiven, we love because He first lo
