  • Jesus is Truth, Jesus is Life, and Jesus is the ONLY Way.

    For more than fifteen years, I have followed the stories of children in our foster care system; children who have endured unimaginable abuse, neglect, and, in far too many cases, death. Over these years, I have not seen a sudden spike in runaways, teen suicides, sex-trafficking victims, or teen pregnancies. What I have seen is this:
    People are finally paying attention to what has been a heartbreaking reality all along.

    Our youth deserve better.
    They deserve stability, hope, and the right tools to rise above hardship.
    They deserve an education and a community that equips them not one that leaves them vulnerable.

    We spend so much time arguing about how to fix the issues, yet the truth is this:
    These issues wouldn’t exist in the same way if we were giving children the right foundation from the beginning.

    Scripture tells us plainly:

    Jesus is the foundation.
    Anything built on anything else will fall.

    Yet our schools continue to exalt human wisdom, human strength, and human theories while shutting the door on the One foundation strong enough to sustain a child through every storm of life.

    We insist on teaching evolution and other ideas that create confusion, while refusing to allow children to hear the Words of God. God’s word heals, strengthens and leads a person on the correct path. They get anchored with hope in Christ instead of hoping they are good enough or strong enough or skinny enough or smart enough.
    They are no longer believing the lies about being worthless or stupid, because they have a real relationship with the LIVING GOD.
    God is their source for wisdom, healing, understanding, counsel and any and everything they could ever need!

    But if we continue to keep them in the dark about God and what is written for them to be taught and arise in Christ, we will be held accountable for what we did and didn’t do to help the future generations be saved!

    It is time for us to stop elevating lies and start equipping children with truth.

    Recently, while in Japan, I watched a class of young students on a field trip to a Buddhist temple. Their teachers were proudly explaining the history of their land, their beliefs, and their culture. Those children were being taught the traditions of their ancestors without apology or fear.

    It made me stop and think:
    If it is valuable for their children to learn their religious and cultural history,
    how much more valuable would it be for our children to learn the history and truth found in Scripture?

    Our children deserve to know that:
       •   They were intentionally created by God.
       •   Their lives carry purpose, calling, and meaning.
       •   They are not here merely for entertainment, screens, or social trends.
       •   They are here because God has destined them for something greater.

    They deserve the chance to hear the words of life so they can truly live.

    It is time to clear away the confusion, the noise, and the false foundations.
    It is time to prepare our teachers—not to be silent, not to be afraid, but to be bold in truth and committed to giving our youth what no theory, no trend, and no human philosophy can provide:

    A foundation that lasts.
    A faith that holds.
    A truth that transforms.

    Our children’s future depends on it.

    If millions of people in Japan can believe in all of these as their gods, surely we can believe in the One Living God who manifests Himself to those who aren’t even asking or looking for Him. I can guarantee that not one person has heard anything from Buddha since he was alive! He is not alive now, because there is no life outside of Christ.
    Christ Jesus the only name given to man unto salvation. His name means Salvation.

  • “But earnestly desire and strive for the greater gifts [if acquiring them is going to be your goal]. And yet I will show you a still more excellent way [one of the choicest graces and the highest of them all: unselfish love].”

    A true story about how God works.

    When we met Mary (not her real name) she was 19 and living in a shelter. She aged out of foster care and was in college studying criminal justice. She was eleven years old when her mother’s boyfriend raped her and got her pregnant. Her mom tried to kill her and the baby after she refused to get an abortion. Thankfully the mother’s attempts to make the situation all go away with more evil failed and a baby girl was born. The baby was placed with a loving family for adoption and they stayed in contact with Mary to let her know how her baby was growing. They sent photos and shared her life with Mary because they knew how important it was for her to know her baby was safe and loved.
    At age eleven she was wise enough to know that her baby had value and she did what most all others would never do. She sacrificed her own life and was severely abused repeatedly by her mother who was trying to cause her to lose the baby. Mary didn’t give in but she fought to ensure a baby who came from a horrific crime of rape would not be destroyed, but instead would have the life that Mary never got as a child.
    Mary would pray asking God to keep her baby safe and He did.
    When Mary turned 22 she got to meet her 11 year old daughter for the first time. They looked like twins! The same height and same features. Mary had suffered such a horrific trauma at age 11 that she actually stayed at the same height and never grew after that, but she really didn’t need to because she was already more mature than any adult.

    Mary is now married and has a beautiful baby girl with her husband and everything that she dreamed and prayed, God did for her. She wrote letters to her younger self and left them at our house. So I read a few of them and found myself weeping at the heart of this beautiful girl who acted so tough sometimes when she was afraid of getting hurt.

    She had so much love and the purest heart that I have ever known! She cared more about her baby at age eleven than most women at age thirty who have husbands and no reason to abort a baby. Mary not only fought for her baby but she had to sacrifice her own body and years of suffering and sadness in order to ensure that baby had a good life.
    How many people are willing to live a life so selfless and loving that they are willing to do the right thing even when the worst things have happened to them?
    I want to tell you how I met this girl, because it wasn’t an accident but it was a divine set up by God.

    I prayed for God to help the children who were being sexually abused and trafficked and He immediately answered my prayer. He even let me meet the first girl rescued by my prayer and she was friends with Mary. The two girls had been homeless together after they both left foster care with no families to support them.
    The girl rescued had been kidnapped while living in a park. No one but Mary cared or even knew that she had been taken by traffickers who told her they had a job for her and a place to shower when they tricked her into getting in their vehicle with them.
    They drugged her and began selling her at a motel in Scottsdale, AZ. She had only been with them a few days when I cried out in prayer asking for the Lord to rescue just one a day from that hell. I told the Lord that I didn’t need to know who he would rescue, because I trusted Him to just rescue someone and I said that I didn’t need to see or know who He rescued but I would just believe He would do it, because I asked Him to help.

    A few hours later Mary’s friend was rescued. Someone made an anonymous call to the authorities to let them know where Sara (not her real name) was being held against her will by traffickers. The authorities immediately responded to the call and found Sara (not her real name) handcuffed to an old heater in the motel. Sara was heavily drugged and told me that none of what happened seemed real to her because it was all like a bad dream. She witnessed another girl’s murder by the trafficker who beat her so badly that she died in Sara’s arms.

    Sara has gone on to live a productive life after her rescue. She is a single mom devoted to the care and safety of her child.
    These two teen girls were dealt terrible circumstances and endured the most heinous of crimes against them, and both of them were fully restored by God to live full and productive lives and be amazing mothers to the next generation.


    That is what I call a reason to praise God and rethink the easy road of abortion and consider that every life has purpose and value.
    Eleven years old and wiser than every doctor and pro-choice advocate who has ever lived, because she knew how to love when she gave up her own life to save her unborn.
    I forgot to say how I knew this was all from a plea in prayer for God to save just one victim. He told me that she was alive because of my prayer. And He then told me to pray bigger because He wanted to save more than just one a day like I had originally asked.
    That is one part of a very beautiful story because it all came out of only one prayer, and I prayed thousands of prayers the five years that followed because my faith was massive and I knew I would have everything I asked for in prayer, because I was asking from a heart that was pure and full of love, because it was God’s heart. I asked God how I could help see an end to the evil in the world. He gave me His heart and I prayed for all that He put in it. He answered all of those prayers and the full impact of what He did is impossible for anyone to comprehend. But that is how God works. He is awesome and wants us to understand that He can do anything if we are willing to just care and believe.

    I don’t want to condemn anyone for past mistakes, but I want to make known that there is healing and mercy for all who call out to Jesus.

    Every life has value and purpose

  • Journey to Life

    Connected to the realm of Light and not living in the darkness means that you have accepted Jesus and the Word of God as your Truth and nothing is bigger or greater than Jesus and his dominion and authority. When we take every thought captive to the obedience of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, we are training ourselves to grow and discern correctly the things that are pleasing to God. The only way to take things captive and pull down those strongholds like fear, worry, wrong thinking, and every deceptive thought is to be intentional in our thoughts, words, and actions every moment. How is that possible? It takes a lot of grace from God and the strengthening by the Holy Spirit, as well as the desire to want to grow up and mature into all that God has for your life.
    If I go to church once a week, but never pray or open my Bible the rest of the week, it is very unlikely that I will ever grow into a level of maturity to be of much value to the people suffering and lost in the world. In fact, I would most likely be just like those people. Always in fear, and dreading everything that I have to do in life, or just complaining, speaking words against God’s Word, and never even knowing that I was giving my thoughts and my words over to the enemy rather than yielding to the Holy Spirit to allow God’s works to be manifest in my life.
    I want to be as real and honest as people can take, and I don’t like to be told to compromise the Truth by giving into other people’s watered-down version of the Truth, because I learned from experience that once you start allowing compromising words and beliefs to be exalted, the Truth begins to be removed from the seat of rightful authority where it belongs. This looks like a world full of sickness, poverty, lack, loneliness, and every form of oppression that has forcefully lodged itself into the church and the families due mostly to fears from past experiences.
    When a person gets sick and dies unexpectedly people want explanations and they want to find something or someone to blame for everything in this world, but most of the time a person dies of a lack of understanding of the Truth. The Truth of God’s Word is able to keep a person alive and nourish their body, soul, and spirit to keep it vibrant and full of life and health. How can a person who has the Spirit of Life in them die from sickness? I am not sure unless they chose to give up the Spirit, because Jesus was on the cross and he gave up his spirit.

    The words of life were all prepared well before any of us came to this world by the working of the Holy Spirit through men and women just like us. The very words of God were recorded in the Bible by His Prophets, His Priests, His anointed, and His blessed and beloved. He chose these individuals and He set them apart for Himself. The people didn’t choose anyone that the sacred teachings came from in the old or the new testament. Men were not given the role of deciding what other men should be taught when it comes to God’s Truths. The Words of Life are found in the Holy Bible. It is Holy and it contains the very Spirit of life which is the Holy Spirit. Jesus said that the words he spoke were Spirit and Life, therefore when we hear those words, they come into our Spirit and produce a transformed life.
    Here is the thing about God and His Word; people have to choose to believe or reject what they have heard. If God’s Word is not in a person it means that they have not accepted the Word as their Truth and the means to Salvation. It is by God’s grace that we are saved, but it is our faith in God’s goodness and mercy (which is seen and known as Jesus who fulfilled the law and took all our punishment for sins in our place) that will bring about the fullness of God’s salvation in our lives.
    What are we hoping to gain by studying the Bible? Whom are we hoping to benefit by going to church and participating in mission trips and other such works to help the afflicted around the world? Obviously, we are in need of understanding what we were created to do and knowing who we are and why we are supposed to do certain things and avoid other things.
    How would I know that it is wrong to allow negative thoughts to fill my heart about myself and others if I grew up in a home full of negativity where nothing was established in the Truth (God’s Word is the Truth aka Jesus- The Truth, The Life, The Way). Not knowing how to think or speak correctly, a person is literally a walking, talking destroyer of all that is good.
    The people have been blinded by fear and injured in doubt. They have no Truth because they have chosen to believe whatever is declared by worldly scholars and experts. A person that takes hold of the Words of Life and begins acting upon what he or she is taught will start to resemble a life that resembles Jesus. One that is humbled before God and eager to do the will of the Father, because they have received the inexpressible love and life that comes from the Father through receiving the Truth and acting on it, no longer has the desire to cause harm to others for selfish gain. The transformation that happens in a person is not possible by simply training oneself to do what is right. It requires a supernatural or divine impartation that comes from the Holy Spirit in our lives. The Holy Spirit is available to anyone who will walk in it, according to scripture, but what does that mean? “Walk in it”. Scripture also says that the Father “gives the Spirit without measure”.
    The limitations are taken off so that we can prosper and not be in sin and poverty. The blood of Jesus is enough to completely break the power of sin. Jesus was perfected and submissive even unto death on the cross. As the perfect sacrificial lamb of God, Jesus was able to destroy the works of the devil. We are now able to take a hold of the Words of Life and see them manifest as our reality and Truth. Jesus said that He is the Life, the Truth, and the Way and that no one can come to the Father except through him.
    We have to always be enforcing the covenant and not allow the enemy to steal or blind us to the promises and covenant that are ours in Christ Jesus.

  • A Poem

    One might assume that Andrew is an average person who has battled with heartache and struggles like everyone else and he is, but he has a unique story that is still unfolding as he is without a job, home or family. Andrew has a beautiful writing gift and a book of poems in need of a publisher. The poem below will make it clear some of his struggles at the moment. He lives in Chandler, AZ and I found him on a bench in the middle of the night shivering and in significant pain after he lost his prescription medication and missed the pick up time to be admitted to the shelter that night.

    I invited him to my weekly fellowship meeting last week and let him share some of his poems with the group. He has a heart of gold and I am praying that others will see that and help him get back on his feet.

    The Bench and the Blanket

    Alone on a park bench with a chill to the bone,

    No chance of warmth, for this night would be cold.

    Just then, something happened as I shivered; which quite astonished me—

    As I was confused, and half asleep, a blanket fell upon me.

    To this I was much obliged and much amused,

    For up until this moment by society I had felt much abused.

    This sort of act perpetrated by someone I never saw,

    To my vulnerable state this person must have been drawn.

    This sort of perpetration restored hope in me for a civilization I had quite given up on,

    But now I was warm…now my shivers had gone.

    I quickly fell back into slumber as I pondered this person with best of intention.

    Come morning time, to my surprise, I noticed myself wrapped in this blanket aforementioned.

    It felt as though my humiliating situation for which I was not equipped,

    Had not gone without altruism—had not been of remiss, nor of dismiss.

    To this wonderful citizen who went well beyond societal duty;

    Well to this citizen I would concede, you are of such beauty.

    The beautiful nature in our world which should be spread as plague—

    For this kindness to be spread worldwide, I most certainly would beg.

    I thank you for your kindness, you illusive, and most outstanding member of society.

    I have slept many a warm night; and I humbly thank you for your most gracious generosity.

  • Prayers Are Needed

    These are the youth reported missing in AZ over the last month. Let’s pray until all of them are recovered please.
    These are only the ones reported missing to this organization. Most of the time kids in foster care are not reported missing, and none of the immigrant children that come here and are placed in homes with people they are said to know or those known as host families are listed here when missing. I don’t know the number of missing kids that would add to the list, but I feel like it would be terribly greater than we would want to know. The kids that have their own parents abusing and selling them would also not be identified as missing, because they would likely not be known. One of the worst things about victims of sex trafficking and child sexual abuse is that many of them are still living in their homes and simply unwilling to tell anyone out of fear. They are silenced by the perpetrators who use intimidation and shame as well as promises to harm their families if they should tell anyone. Let’s pray for all of them to be set free and those who do such harm to children and teens to be identified by all those around them for what they are doing.
    I remember there was a time when I would look at people and I could see what they were doing like a drug dealer would stand out as one very clearly or an abusive person would be marked in a way that it was clear to me, so let’s pray for divine gifts of knowledge and wisdom for all law enforcement and border patrol as well as hotel workers, and travel industry workers who might have victims on a flight or bus etc in need of help. Uber drivers and taxi drivers also.
    Ultimately we want these dark spirits of corruption to be taken down that are polluting our nation with ungodly desires and causing people to act on those things.
    If anyone is willing to pray for all of the youth reported missing in this nation each week or month, I can supply those names also. There are many, and even the runaways are in need of prayers for their families and safety.
    We really need to be praying for freedom for all of God’s children from the corruption of this world.
    “RESTORE! RESTORE!! RESTORE THEM ALL IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS!”
    We want souls saved and lives free to love and live as a new creation that no longer live under the rule of demonic powers that defile the hearts of the people and keep them blinded to the Truth.
    There is a better way to end all evil and that is with love. Love blesses and pours out good for all to see good instead of evil which brings praises and glory to God. When we begin lifting up our hearts to praise and worship 24/7, and walk in God’s love, lives are set free all around us simply by what is released into the atmosphere. The demons hate worship and praise to God, and they will not be able to remain where Love has conquered the people!



    Just a few of the hundred of youth reported missing in the United States each month.

  • The missing children, ranging in ages 10 to 17, included victims of sex trafficking and physical and sexual abuse. They were found in Texas, Colorado and Mexico.
    — Read on www.fox10phoenix.com/news/operation-lost-souls-70-missing-children-sex-trafficking-victims-found-texas-operation

    This story is another proof that God answers prayers and that nothing is impossible when you believe and pray for God’s divine intervention.

    Every so often I pull up the missing and exploited children website and begin going through as many of the lists of children as possible and praying for their rescue and safe recovery that includes healing for all that they have suffered.

    I know most of the youth are abused in their own homes and that is what causes them to runaway, so when I pray for them, I also pray that they won’t be brought back into a dangerous home, but will have the loving support of a Christian family that truly abides in Christ.

    There are so many opportunities for people to pray for the healing and rescue of others in this world, I urge everyone to find their prayer life by beginning to pray for their coworkers, their children’s classmates and parents, the school teachers, police, nurses, fire men, leaders, judges, inmates, musicians, actors, who ever and where ever! There is no list or limit to who a person can and should be praying for in this world. Everyone needs a Savior and no one is too far gone to pray for them.

    We need more prayers and more hearts that are tender towards the heart of God, so that all are healed and given hope and a future.

    Below are the photos of some of the missing children in my state for the last three months. I forgot that I took screen shots of them after I prayed.

    We can all do this together and see great rescues and lives restored.

  • There is a song from the 70’s or 80’s called Love Hurts, but the truth is that LOVE heals and LOVE is the only thing that can destroy evil completely.

    Love is something that is good and not a negative emotion or feeling.  Love is beautiful and it makes the world beautiful.  A lack of love is what causes the world to become a devastating, war-torn battle zone.   The battle and wars might not be military conflicts, but they can be just as damaging to have a divided people fighting over issues like abortion, gay rights, gun control and political parties raging against each other.

    I often wonder if people even know what they are so upset about when they go off on a rage at the mere mention of a political candidate that is registered to the party opposite their own.  Most of the time political candidates are arguing over issues that are not going to be resolved by them or aren’t even an issue.

    I know that most people are blind to the Truth, but it is almost scary to sit back and listen to how foolish people can be about nonsense that has no point or purpose and will help no one, but it does manage to keep people divided and angry which is the only reason that we have so many issues.  It may seem like a strange thing to actually seek out the Truth of a matter and not accept the lies anymore, but the Word of God is the Only Truth that will never change or pass away.  Instead of wasting days, months, and years trying to figure out who is right and wrong over issues, we could all seek the Truth and ask God to make in us a pure heart and uphold us with a right spirit that will reveal all truth to us.

    God promises to write his laws on our hearts and minds so that we no longer need anyone to teach us about him or what is right and wrong.

    We receive His love and we are then able to give that love to others. When people turn and help others, love blooms and the life of Christ manifests and the people are blessed.

    This is the weekend that we are all made aware of the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior who gave us the example of the greatest love when he laid down his life for his brothers and sisters. His brothers and sisters were not very kind or good obviously if they crucified him and no one fought to save him. Of course, we know that it had to be that way for God to turn that one act and sacrificial offering of selfless love into the most crucial and powerful blessing that has ever been given to us today. It is in the Truth-Jesus Christ, that we are able to see clearly the things that are of great value and what truly creates good rather than living in a world of spiritual blindness and self-seeking desires.

    When a person no longer finds value in their belongings and is willing to release it all in order to help others, they are walking in divine love and unity with the Lord, because it is only when a person discovers the Truth-(Jesus Christ), that they are able to let go of the greed, envy, slander and self-seeking life. Jesus is the ONLY desire and destiny for me, because he is the most beautiful and compassionate life that is always eager to help and give whatever is needed no matter what the cost.

    Jesus is not just a figure in history, he is the Truth, the Life and the Way. What is the Truth? The absolute highest understanding and the only thing that will never fail or change. God’s Word is the Truth. People can continue to fight to keep it from being made known to the children and the people in the world, but this only causes more suffering for them and the future generations. The Life and the Way are the means to which we are to follow and abide our lives with in order to have the same experience and relationship with our Heavenly Father. We are only able to go to the Father through the Life of Jesus Christ, because of what he did to obtain for us reconciliation and restoration with the Father. We are blessed when we choose to believe God’s Word over the rhetoric of the world. In fact, there is no peace for anyone who is not reconciled back to God, because those people are living under a cursed and fallen world that is defiled in sin and rejection of all the good that God has already made available for all who will believe in Jesus Christ and receive his life for their own debts owed for sin.

    I hope that makes sense to anyone who is currently in need of a new life and the truth. Turn to the Lord and believe God is good and will provide and do all that He has promised for those who know and hold fast to His Covenant.

    Be grateful and leave behind all negativity and wicked words and acts by trusting in good rather than believing in oppression.

    May you be blessed and filled with the fullness of God as you seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first.

  • Purified Through Prayers

    “”Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the night watches! Pour out your heart like water before the presence of the Lord! Lift your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint for hunger at the head of every street.””
    Lamentations 2:19 ESV

    I came across this scripture back in 2015, and I took it to heart. I began praying every night for hours and hours asking for God to help the children in the Arizona foster care system and those that were abused and taken into captivity by sex traffickers and other evils.

    I prayed for every kid that I heard about and all those that I would never meet or know anything about. I prayed for their parents, their teachers, their futures, their safety, their dreams, their hearts and their souls. I prayed so much that God finally came and spoke to me to answer some of my prayers in my hearing.

    He told me that all of my prayers had risen up and filled His bowl. He told me that I know longer needed to fear or fight this battle for the children alone, because He was arousing Himself and coming out to put an end to the things that were happening. He said that I would soon look up and there would be no more wickedness. He even assigned Angels that day to help me. He said that whatever I wanted to do and had been trying to do, but had been denied or blocked, would no longer be hindering me.

    It was the greatest news that I ever received! I couldn’t wait to see how many kids would be saved and how much good would begin to happen in my state and nation.

    To be continued….

  • Are You Called to be a Crusader of Love?

    If you feel like God has called you to go deeper, and become a light in a world of darkness to help rescue the lost and hurting lives, you can start now.

    This is a journey to do what Jesus did and become the disciples that share the truth by going into areas that need hope, prayer and love to begin to thrive and have abundant life.
    We will meet and set up a plan of action and split up into groups of two that go out into the streets to heal the sick, cast out demons, feed the hungry, pray for everyone, bless neighborhoods and people, share the message of truth through personal testimonies with people in need of hope and healing. There are hundreds of people on the streets of Phoenix and surrounding cities each night that can be found sleeping on bus benches, the ground and the sidewalks, and they need to know that this world might have rejected and oppressed them, but God has created them for a greater purpose and each life is of vital importance to God’s purpose and plan. We are going to bring hope to the hopeless, and open the eyes of the blind by sharing the truth. Not the watered down or condemnation version of the truth, but the absolute truth of God’s great love that says He will never leave us, nor forsake us, and that His love is an everlasting love that we can’t stop by our bad choices or broken past. His love is what we need to destroy the evil and stop the lies of this world.
    We will do all that we saw Jesus did. The Holy Spirit will direct our steps and lead us to the people who need our help.
    If you are able to trust God to provide and protect you as you step out in faith to answer his calling, then you should join this journey to destroy evil through love.

  • “However, I say to you, love your enemies, bless the one who curses you, do something wonderful for the one who hates you, and respond to the very ones who persecute you by praying for them. For that will reveal your identity as children of your heavenly Father. He is kind to all by bringing the sunrise to warm and rainfall to refresh, whether a person does what is good or evil.”
    Matthew 5:44–45 TPT

    When it feels as though everyone is against you and you are being treated unfairly, do not give up and do not allow yourself to become upset or hardened. Instead, begin partnering with the Lord by asking Him how to pray for and bless those people. It is only then that the Lord is able to work in their hearts, revealing His love and inviting them to receive His mercy and grace, which brings true transformation.

    There are many who claim to love God and know Him, yet the Lord told me that many who say they know Him have never truly known Him. Some believe they are living a Christian life because they attend church and appear outwardly righteous, but Jesus made it clear that His true family is made up of those who obey God’s Word.

    If there is jealous ambition in your heart, or if you seek to elevate yourself by making others look bad, you are not living for God. You are living for yourself.

    If blessing and praying for all people is part of God’s plan for leading others into salvation through His mercy and grace, how will they ever come to know Him if those they oppose are not showing them love and praying for them?

    Those who truly know the Lord understand that love alone has the power to completely destroy evil. War, hatred, and the murder of enemies have never been the path to eternal life.

    Jesus hung on the cross and asked the Father to forgive the very people who put Him there. He understood they were being deceived by sin and evil, which led them to take His life. Jesus came to save the lost and to restore sinners back to God.

    So the question we must ask ourselves is this: how are we doing with this one required mark of being in the family of God?

    Someone may say, “But you do not know what that person did to me.” That is true. I may not know what they did to you, but I do know what Jesus did to forgive them and to forgive me. If He could say, “Father, forgive them,” then surely His grace is sufficient for me to forgive those who have harmed or offended me throughout my life.

    Ask the Lord for the grace to forgive and release everyone who has hurt you. The next step is to pray for them to encounter God’s love and mercy. After that, choose to bless them by doing something good for them, even if they once sought to harm you.

    When a person truly follows these steps, something powerful happens. Enemies are no longer enemies. Just as Scripture says, “When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.”
    Proverbs 16:7

    If you don’t believe what I am saying is possible, watch the clip that I took from a segment of the 700 Club back in 2019. It will open your heart to understand God’s love on a deeper level.

  • “I continue to pray for your love to grow and increase beyond measure, bringing you into the rich revelation of spiritual insight in all things. This will enable you to choose the most excellent way of all —becoming pure and without offense until the unveiling of Christ. And you will be filled completely with the fruits of righteousness that are found in Jesus, the Anointed One—bringing great praise and glory to God!”

    ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    If Paul prayed this for the Philippians, we should be praying it for the churches today. I hope that everyone has come to the place of maturity in the churches to begin passionately praying with the Lord for His Church to be growing in love and filled with the fruits of Righteousness that are found in Jesus, but I will pray for this always until the Lord says it is not needed.

    If you would like to agree in prayer with me for this prayer please do!

    “Again I tell you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize together, make a symphony together) about whatever [anything and everything] they may ask, it will come to pass and be done for them by My Father in heaven” Matt 18:19 AMP, so let’s stay in agreement and avoid all negativity that tries to destroy and divide all the good that God wants to do for us.

    Love is the answer and solution for every single thing in this world, so if you don’t know what to do about a situation, use the lens of LOVE to decide what is best.

    Love is

    Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

    Love never ends.

    1 Corinthians 13:4-8 ESV

  • I met a man on the streets one time that was coming off of heroin and going through severe withdrawal.  I wasn’t sure how to help him, but I made him get in my car before he died on the scorching streets in the middle of summer.  I asked him what happened to bring him to that place in his life.  He freely admitted that he had been sexually abused by someone who was still allowed to be in the home, and his mother and sister were so angry with him for being on drugs that they told him he couldn’t come home anymore.  He wasn’t trying to do wrong.  He was trying to escape a reality that was too painful to endure on his own.  He was blamed and accused by the people he thought he was protecting by not telling them what someone from their family was doing to him, but it was destroying him and the enemy was using it to keep him in bondage of fear.  God set him free that day.  I never saw him again, but when he got out of my vehicle four hours later he was able to speak clearly and had fresh hope and faith in a good future.  He could barely speak when I made him get in my car.  He was shaking and manifesting all sorts of crazy demonic spirits that were tormenting him so severely that he seemed like a monster with the noises and facial expressions coming from him the first few hours .  

    Philip was his name.  He lived in apartments in Mesa and when I went to his apartment complex to drop him off, the drug dealers rolled up in their car and these two big men got out wearing gold chains looking like stereotypical drug dealers!  As they walked from their car the people looked like cockroaches coming out of their hiding places to get their food for the day.  

    A boy who was maybe 10 years old came up to my vehicle and knocked on the window.  I looked at him and he flashed the drugs he was selling as if to let me know I could get some from him.  I was appalled by what was happening to that community by those two self-serving thieves working for the devil unknowingly to destroy the lives of even children who should have been playing and enjoying their summer break.  

    I told Philip that he could either get out of the vehicle or he could leave that place with me and we could find him a place to recover and never go back to the hell that had tried to invade that apartment complex.  

    He chose to leave with me because he said that he knew he would not be able to resist if he got out of the car in that moment.  

    I tried to get him into a program where he could recover but no one would help us.  They all had some technical issues or something that he needed and didn’t have to qualify him for help.  It was one of the hardest things I had ever experienced up to that point, and I eventually had to drop him off at a QT gas station and just pray that God would help him from that moment forward.  

    I knew very little about the heroin epidemic at that time but would learn about it as I was sent out to help the people on the streets day after day.  

    As I drove home that day from QT all I could do was sob uncontrollably over the suffering of so many lives in our community.  

    I prayed and asked the Lord to have mercy and rescue them all because they didn’t know what they were doing and they didn’t know how to be free.  

  • A Review I Wrote in 2012 for an Organization in Arizona Helping Bring Awareness and Support to the Issue of Sex Trafficking

    November 2012

    “I was introduced to one of the incredibly dedicated founders of this organization about four months ago. When a friend invited me to lunch, I had no idea that it would become one of the most eye-opening and deeply disturbing afternoons of my life.

    When I arrived at the restaurant, my friend met me outside to explain who we were meeting and the conversation I was about to walk into. I regret that I can’t remember the name of the other woman we met that day she was also a nonprofit founder and seemed very kind but my attention was immediately drawn to Lori from Starbright. As she spoke, she shared one heartbreaking and gruesome story after another about victims of sex trafficking right here in the Valley.

    I can honestly say that, until that moment, I had been largely unaware that this crime was occurring so close to home. Learning that sex trafficking is among the top one or two crimes in Phoenix was more than alarming, it was staggering. That lunch lasted more than three hours, yet I don’t even remember eating. When I left the restaurant, the first thing I did was call my family to make sure my children were safe.

    When I arrived home, I walked inside without my laptop or phone, something I never do. I was so overwhelmed by what I had just heard that I needed to sit quietly with my family and simply be grateful that they were still unaware of the horrific realities unfolding just a few miles away.

    At first, I didn’t believe I would be able to help the organization. I wasn’t sure I could emotionally handle the situations they confront every single day. But after meeting Lori, I knew I couldn’t simply walk away. I understand what it feels like to fight for a cause that many people either don’t know exists or don’t want to acknowledge.

    Lori is fiercely passionate about saving young girls, often placing her own life at risk in the process. She works around the clock and takes no compensation from the organization. Every donated dollar goes directly toward the mission. She has created a safe house where victims of child abuse and sex trafficking can begin to heal and receive treatment for the unimaginable trauma they have endured.

    Over the past few months, I have been fortunate to get to know Lori better. I was honored to help her save a significant amount of money during the process of opening the safe house, simply by connecting her with people who could help resolve issues that had been slowing progress.

    I plan to support Starbright in any way I can, because the work they are doing is not only necessary, it is urgent. The leaders of this organization are devoted beyond words to protecting children and helping them feel safe, seen, and loved. They are leaders of deep faith, compelled to carry out the work they were called to do.”

    Starbright Foundation is located in the suburbs of Phoenix, AZ. They have been working tirelessly all these years to help raise awareness about this issue and to provide training and support to first responders as well as a safe place for recovered victims to stay.

    I am sharing this today as a series of stories that will follow to help the people understand what is needed today and why they should care and pray.

  • Happy Fleeting Days Or Joy for Life in Christ

    When are you most happy?

    Rather than sharing what makes me happy, I want to share the difference between joy and happiness.

    In a world that constantly urges us to be happy, we often chase feelings that are fleeting and fragile. We look for happiness in success, comfort, approval, relationships, or moments when everything seems to be going right. And while happiness is not wrong, it was never meant to carry the full weight of our lives.

    There is something deeper and steadier than happiness. It is called joy.

    Happiness is an emotional response to circumstances. It rises when life feels good and falls when things go wrong. A promotion, a kind word, a beautiful day, these moments can bring happiness. But when disappointment, loss, or hardship enters, happiness often disappears just as quickly as it came. Happiness depends on what is happening. And because life is unpredictable, happiness alone is an unstable foundation.

    Joy is not the absence of pain. It is the presence of hope. Joy is rooted in meaning, truth, and purpose, something far deeper than emotions. It is an inner assurance that remains even when circumstances are difficult. Joy says, This hurts, but I am not abandoned. It says, This is hard, but it is not the end. Joy does not deny suffering. It endures through it.

    When we confuse happiness with joy, we can feel like something is wrong with us when life hurts. We may think faith has failed us because we do not feel happy. But joy was never meant to replace grief or sorrow. It was meant to carry us through it.

    Happiness says, Life is good right now.
    Joy says, God is good always. That distinction changes everything.

    Joy Is a Strength. Scripture reminds us, The joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10

    Not comfort.
    Not ease.
    Not perfect circumstances.

    Joy is strength because it anchors us when everything else shakes. It gives us the ability to endure, to hope, and to love even when life is heavy.

    Happiness and joy are not enemies. We can enjoy moments of happiness when they come, laughter, celebration, beauty. But we do not build our lives on them.

    We build our lives on joy. Joy remains when happiness fades. Joy whispers truth when fear is loud. Joy reminds us that we are held, loved, and never alone. And that is something no circumstance can take away.

    Put your hope in Christ and His joy will flood your heart to strengthen you when you would otherwise be unable to continue. The Lord is literally the solution for every issue of this world!

    Seek the Lord with all of your heart, and you will find Him and Joy will be your daily food!

  • “You who are far away, listen to what I have done, and you who draw near to me, acknowledge my power and strength!

    Sinners in Zion are afraid, and the godless are gripped with panic, saying,

    “Who can dwell with such an all-consuming fire?

    Who can live in the presence of the never-ending flame?’ Only those who walk with integrity and speak what is true, who despise even the thought of cheating the poor, and do not accept a bribe, nor plot violence, nor contemplate doing evil —

    In this high place, your eyes will see the king in his stunning beauty and gaze upon his broad domain.

    You will look back on the fears of your past and say, “Now, where is the scholar? Where is the adviser? Where is the one who numbers those who are maturing?”

    You will no longer see the defiant foreigner who speaks a strange, incomprehensible language.

    Set your gaze on Zion, the city where we gather for Yahweh’s feasts. Your eyes will see Jerusalem as a quiet, pleasant place. It is a secure dwelling, permanent and unmovable, not like a tabernacle that must be taken down, its pegs pulled up, and transported.

    Glorious Yahweh will be there for us in a land with broad rivers and life-giving streams, where the hostile, majestic ships will not sail.

    The Lord Yahweh is our Judge, our Lawgiver, and our King; he will save us completely!

    Your ropes hang loose, your mast is not secure, and your sail is not unfurled.

    Then there will be a great plunder, such an abundant treasure divided that even the lame will seize their rich share.

    No one living in Zion will say, “I am sick,” for all who live there will have their sin forgiven.”

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭33‬:‭13‬-‭15‬, ‭17‬-‭24‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • Oh how wonderful is Jesus? He is the delight of every soul and the desire of every heart.

    Beautiful and awesome are just two words among a multitude that help describe Yeshua (Jesus). My Beloved and my friend is the most peaceful and generous. He is so worthy of all our praises and so holy is He who gave up His life in order to give us a new life!

    A spirit led life full of joy and praise is the only life worth living!

    I have lived apart from the Lord and I have lived so intimately entwined with Him to know that He is everything and a life without Him is purposeless and void of hope, joy and peace. Most of all there is no love or faith without Him, so let us sing and worship our King who has so much more for us to experience and grow up into full maturity.

    A bride and a bridegroom are meant to be wildly in love and eager to encounter each other daily! How can anyone be satisfied with so little of Him?

    Some are excited for miracles, some are excited to gain the wealth and favor, but all that I am seeking is more of Him!!!

    I have tasted and seen and He is the ONLY thing that I must have more of in this world!

    Oh wonderful Jesus

  • Here is what I love most about our amazing God, He always takes the worst scenarios and makes them beautiful blessings!

    Thank you Father!

    We are so grateful and so very blessed because of all that was done for us by the finished work of the cross.

    Jesus is Lord and love reigns supreme!

  • “For you reach into my heart.

    With one flash of your eyes I am undone by your love, my beloved, my equal, my bride.

    You leave me breathless—

    I am overcome by merely a glance from your worshiping eyes, for you have stolen my heart.

    I am held hostage by your love and by the

    graces of righteousness shining upon you.

    How satisfying to me, my equal, my bride.

    Your love is my finest wine—intoxicating and thrilling.

    And your sweet, perfumed praises—so exotic, so pleasing.

    Your loving words are like the honeycomb to me;

    your tongue releases milk and honey,

    for I find the promised land flowing within you.

    The fragrance of your worshiping love surrounds you with scented robes of white.

    My darling bride, my private paradise, fastened to my heart.

    A secret spring that no one else can have are you— my bubbling fountain hidden from public view.

    What a perfect partner to me now that I have you.

    Your inward life is now sprouting, bringing forth fruit.

    What a beautiful paradise unfolds within you.

    When I’m near you, I smell aromas of the finest spice, for many clusters of my exquisite fruit now grow within your inner garden.

    Here are the nine:

    pomegranates of passion,

    henna from heaven,

    spikenard so sweet,

    saffron shining,

    fragrant calamus from the cross,

    sacred cinnamon,

    branches of scented woods,

    myrrh, like tears from a tree, and

    aloe as eagles ascending.

    You are a fountain of gardens.

    A well of living water springs up from within you,

    like a mountain brook flowing into my heart!”

    ‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭4‬:‭9‬-‭15‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • From 2 Thessalonians 1:4 Paul shares the keys to our victory.

    1. A growing faith in Christ

    2. Increasing love for others

    3. And unwavering hope

    Those things sound easy enough but when you have people who are members of the church speaking harshly towards you or burdening you with heavy demands or slandering others and wanting you to listen to their negativity, it can be difficult.

    Now add onto that unbelievers wanting to blame you and crush your faith with their unbelief and hatred.

    Perhaps you are surrounded by fearful people who want to project all their fears on you by speaking death and doom and gloom.

    Maybe they just won’t shut up and their mouths are like a clogged toilet filled with sewage that is causing quite a stench! There is a wonderful way of escape! Pour out your heart before the Lord day and night and release all of it to Him, so that you don’t get weighed down with the cares of this world.

    Lift up your voice in praise and worship the Lord in great reverence and all those negative things will begin to disappear until the only thing left is the glory and powerful presence of our mighty God.

    He inhabits the praise of His people and if you don’t know this yet, simply begin thanking Him for everything and only allow good thoughts and words to come from you, and you will begin to understand their are realms that you can walk in where no negativity is found and the fullness of joy floods your heart daily.

    God’s love is so lavish and inclusive to all who turn to Him in truth that it doesn’t take much to encounter our Holy and beautiful Savior.

    King Jesus is King of all and over all, so a quick side note for those who are doing the “no king” protests, Jesus will always be King and all those haters will either be crushed by the waves of glory crashing into entire cities or they will simply find themselves sobbing on their knees when they finally wake up to the Truth and realize that they have been fighting against the greatest Love and most powerful and pure creator who not only made them for His plans and purpose but loves them with everlasting love that conquers ALL evil.

  • “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

    ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭14‬, ‭16‬-‭21‬ ‭ESV‬

    What would the world look like if people allowed God to handle all of their vengeance against others? It would look like a praying people who see all of their enemies getting saved and no longer being their enemies. Only love can destroy evil completely, so we are expected to only show love and kindness to others even when they do us wrong or cause us much grief.

    Love looks like Jesus giving up his sinless life to save every sinner. Jesus didn’t die for the blameless; it was his death that makes us blameless before God as his pure blood washes away the stain of our guilty conscience so we can stand before God and not back down in shame. Jesus paid for all of our sins from the beginning of time until our last day on the earth, so don’t be burdened by the weight of sin, but release it all to the Lord daily and allow His love to carry you to the end.

    Don’t cause harm to others and you won’t be working against the Lord. Choose good and do good. Help and never hurt anyone. Don’t belittle or disrespect others. Be humble and serve the Lord with joy!

  • Scripture warns that “they are darkened in their understanding because of the futility of their thoughts” — or, as some translations say, “the hardness of their hearts.” Futile thoughts are empty, worthless thoughts that lead us away from the truth of God’s Word. They include self-doubt, fear, anger, and judgment — all rooted in unbelief.

    The Bible also says, “Cast down all vain imaginations.” Vain imaginations are thoughts that exalt something or someone higher than Christ and His finished work. Whenever our minds dwell on fear, pride, or offense, we give power to lies instead of resting in God’s peace and love.

    A wicked man, Scripture says, is one who refuses to believe God’s Word. Without faith, he cannot find peace or rest — no matter what’s happening in the world. God declared, “My people perish for lack of knowledge.” When we accept false beliefs as truth, we open the door to sickness, confusion, and defeat.

    Think of how subtle deception began — when people first believed that catching a cold was “common.” Two or more witnesses agreed, and their words established a pattern. What was once harmless became accepted as normal. That is how lies gain power: through agreement.

    Jesus warned, “You will give an account for every idle word you speak.”
    Idle words are those that oppose the truth of God’s Word. They carry destruction because they agree with darkness rather than with life. Scripture says the tongue “sets the whole course of one’s life on fire.” We literally speak either heaven or hell into our world by our words.

    To walk in victory, we must learn to speak words of life—words filled with the Spirit and rooted in truth. The only way to do that is by renewing the mind with God’s Word, unpolluting it from the world’s patterns of doubt and negativity.

    This is why schools once taught the Bible and allowed prayer. Prayer shows belief—it is faith in action, an acknowledgment that God is good and that He answers. When prayer was removed, unbelief filled the gap. And where unbelief grows, purity fades—not because people stopped attending church, but because they stopped believing God’s Word.

    Jesus already paid for every sin, sickness, and brokenness, but to walk free from condemnation, we must live in the higher realm of faith. And faith is born from hope—hope that God exists, that He is good, and that He will help. From faith, we grow into love—the highest realm—where we walk on the highway of holiness.

    The Way of Love

    1 Corinthians 13 describes love as patient, kind, humble, selfless, and full of truth.
    Love “never gives up, never loses faith, always hopes, and endures through every circumstance.”

    When we remain in love—in Christ—we find peace, no matter how dark the world becomes. Staying in love protects our hearts from idle words, offense, and fear.
    It takes grace to overcome. It takes mercy to forgive. And it takes faith to believe that God’s Word is greater than what we see.

    Don’t let anyone poison your mind or heart with negativity or unbelief.
    Don’t be conformed to this world but be transformed by renewing your mind in God’s truth.
    Righteousness exalts a nation, and when leaders walk in truth and speak it boldly, that nation rises in strength and peace.

    So let your words bring life.
    Let your faith speak louder than fear.
    And let your love reveal the power of the One who already overcame the world.

  • Finding Freedom and Healing Again — God’s Way!
    We are seated above in Christ

    Are you feeling under the weather, expecting to fight off a cold or flu this winter? Maybe you’re dealing with chronic pain, or noticing your eyesight growing dim; reaching for those “readers” more often than you’d like?

    Before you accept that as normal, take a few moments to sit back and listen to this powerful message about why so many people stay sick — and how to walk in the healing and victory that already belong to you in Christ.

    I used to walk in divine health for years after learning from Andrew Womack about the power of healing. But somewhere along the way, after listening to too many voices that didn’t understand these truths, I began to think like them and forgot what I once lived out daily. I can hardly believe I let that happen. I see now that I had been in a place where my voice was stifled and my faith suffocated.

    But praise God! I’m free again! The enemy may have tried to take my life, but he will never win, because I know the Truth — the Word of God, who is Jesus Himself — and the Truth sets me free! Hallelujah!

    I prayed a little bit ago and asked the Lord to show me how to receive full healing in my body. Within minutes, I “accidentally” clicked on this teaching — but there are no accidents in Christ. When we ask in faith, He answers immediately. And even when I’ve asked in frustration instead of faith, His goodness still found a way to reach me.

    God isn’t holding out on anyone. If you’re hungry for healing, hope, and renewed faith, I promise this message will encourage you deeply.

    You’ll come away reminded that you are loved, redeemed, and already equipped to rise above every affliction, oppression, and sorrow — in Jesus’ mighty name!

  • “Yes, daily they seem to seek me, pretending that they delight to know my ways, as though they were a nation that does what is right and had not rejected the law of their God.

    They ask me to show them the right way, acting as though they are eager to be close to me. They say, ‘Why is it that when we fasted, you did not see it? We starved ourselves, and you didn’t seem to notice.’ “Because on the day you fasted you were seeking only your own desires, and you continue to exploit your workers. During your fasts, you quarrel and fight with others and strike them with an angry fist. When you fast like that, your voice will not be heard on high. Do you think I’m impressed with that kind of fast? Is it just a day to starve your bodies, make others think you’re humble, and lie down in sackcloth and ashes? Do you call that a fast? Do you think I, Yahweh, will be pleased with that?” “This is the kind of fast that I desire: Remove the heavy chains of oppression! Stop exploiting your workers! Set free the crushed and mistreated! Break off every yoke of bondage! Share your food with the hungry! Provide for the homeless and bring them into your home! Clothe the naked! Don’t turn your back on your own flesh and blood! Then my favor will bathe you in sunlight until you are like the dawn bursting through a dark night. And then suddenly your healing will manifest. You will see your righteousness march out before you, and the glory of Yahweh will protect you from all harm! Then Yahweh will answer you when you pray. When you cry out for help, he will say, ‘I am here.’ “If you banish every form of oppression, the scornful accusations, and vicious slander, and if you offer yourselves in compassion for the hungry and relieve those in misery, then your dawning light will rise in the darkness and your gloom will turn into noonday splendor! Yahweh will always guide you where to go and what to do. He will fill you with refreshment even when you are in a dry, difficult place. He will continually restore strength to you, so you will flourish like a well-watered garden and like an ever-flowing, trustworthy spring of blessing. Your people will rebuild long-deserted ruins, building anew on foundations laid long before you. You will be known as Repairers of the Cities and Restorers of Communities. “If you stop pursuing your own desires on my holy day, and refrain from disregarding the Sabbath, if you call the Sabbath a delightful pleasure and Yahweh’s holy day honorable, if you honor it properly by not chasing your own desires, serving your own interests, and speaking empty words, then you will find the joyous bliss that comes from serving Yahweh. And I will cause you to prosper and be carried triumphantly over the high places of the land. You will enjoy the heritage of Jacob, your ancestor.” Certainly the mouth of Yahweh has spoken it!”

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭58‬:‭2‬-‭14‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • God always gets the final say and He says, “I have loved you with an everlasting love. You are my beloved child and I am well pleased with your life. I have seen what is happening and I am arousing myself to come and help you. Nothing else will hinder you. You can now do all that is in your heart to do, for I am with you.

    Arise with praise and come to learn from me. I give you authority and favor to reign and rule in the midst of your enemies. So work and let nothing pull you down. Allow no corrupt communication to come from your lips. Agree with my words and live above where I have called you to be with me.”
    That is what the Lord spoke to me in the midst of a whirlwind.
    “The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart” Hebrews 4:12
    Let the Word have all of you! Let it overtake you and make you a vessel of God’s glory! Don’t hold onto anything, but release it all and soar above where the eagle flies with watching eyes.

    God wants to help. Just believe and ask Him to lead you forward everyday by His Holy Spirit. Be blessed because Jesus paid for you to receive blessing, honor and favor. Let go of the negative thoughts and words and replace them with Truth.

    Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:31

  • Each morning I used to get in my car, turn up the worship music, and sing with joy to the Lord. I would declare that I was going out to awaken the dawn with my praise. Those drives became my favorite moments because God’s presence was so strong—the glory of the Lord lifted me higher and gave me fresh revelation of His heart and will for my life.

    Along the way, I often stopped to help someone sleeping on the streets. Sometimes that meant bringing donuts and coffee—or hot cocoa on cold mornings. Sometimes I was blessed to pray with people, and other times I simply handed them food and spoke a simple reminder: “God hears your prayers, and He has not forgotten you.”

    For many reasons, I stopped doing that last year. But today, I feel the Lord stirring me to begin again—and so I will! My heart is full of expectation.

    Be blessed today and let your mouth be filled with praises to our awesome and mighty God!

    “The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.”

    — Psalm 28:7 (ESV)

    “The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.”

    Prayer

    Father, I pray Your love would pour over every person who reads this. Let them taste and see that You are good. Thank You that Your steadfast love endures forever. We surrender this day to You and ask that Your Holy Spirit guide us in the path You have ordained. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

  • “When the word got out that Jesus was not far from Jerusalem, a large crowd came out to see him, and they also wanted to see Lazarus, the man Jesus had raised from the dead. This prompted the chief priests to seal their plans to do away with both Jesus and Lazarus, for his miracle testimony was irrefutable and was persuading many of the Jews living in Jerusalem to believe in Jesus.”

    ‭‭John‬ ‭12‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    There are so many people that have powerful testimonies of God’s miraculous power in their lives, but out of fear or whatever reason, they don’t share it. God is good and people need to know how good He is and they will do that when everyone shares all that God has done for them. It might not be raising a person from the dead after four days, but it could be raising up a person to show up with the rent money that you were not able to pay and thought it was eviction day but then God supplied for all of your needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus!

    My husband and I were invited to a dinner a few years ago with some old friends that we rarely see anymore and there was a powerful testimony that one of our friends had about a near death experience and a heavenly encounter, but when he tried to share it with the group at the table his wife became furious and told him to be quiet and not to share that story again.

    I wanted to hear the testimony and so did the rest of the group. There were two unbelievers at the table who didn’t seem to care either way, but it was clear that he was meant to share that testimony in order to increase our faith and to bring those unbelievers to the reality that God is real and so is Heaven.

    We finally convinced the man to share the story in spite of his wife’s objections. She was irritated with every word he spoke, but we were all very excited and afterward two other couples shared their miracle testimonies that would have never been shared otherwise.

    I don’t know if that other couple turned to the Lord and got saved after that but I know that they would not be able to say they didn’t have a chance to do so after what was shared that night about the Lord Jesus and the love and mercy He had on all of our lives.

    My point in sharing all of that was to help people understand that people need to hear what Jesus did for you so that they can believe and be saved! If you never tell anyone and just talk to other believers about the Lord, how will that help those who need to hear and be saved?

    This kid is flying and having the best birthday ever because God is good and He provided for her even when her mother had nothing extra to buy her a birthday gift.

    1000 backpacks are filled and taken to Mexico to help the families that couldn’t buy their kids school supplies, but God made a way for them to have all of their needs met!

    This young man was living on the streets and had no one who would help him after he lost everything and gave up on ever getting a good future again. But God didn’t forget about him nor did He let him stay alone on the scorching Phoenix streets anymore! God is good even when we are not!

    This dad and his three adorable children were separated for almost two or three years and all hope was nearly lost of him ever getting to see them again, but God not only let him see them again, but He put it on the mother’s heart to let them come and live with him here in the United States. They are from the Philippines but are now all legal citizens in America. Thank you Jesus!

    Those are just a couple testimonies that I came up with as I looked at my pictures for the last week. How many great stories need to be told?

    In the book of John, John says that if all the miracles of Jesus were written there wouldn’t be enough books in the world to contain them all! This is our God. He really is good all of the time. He is worthy of daily praise and reverence!

  • How do you express your gratitude?

    A gift and a card to let the person know how much I appreciate them, but if it is not possible to get them a gift or a card, (if they are no longer around) I will be sure to tell others of the wonderful things they did for me and cherish them in my heart forever.

  • “Let it be known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and by him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.”
    ‭‭Acts‬ ‭13‬:‭38‬-‭39‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Have you ever felt weighed down by guilt or shame? Well there is good news for all who turn to Jesus! His blood is able to wash all of that away and make us blameless before the Father. That is a reason to celebrate and be joyful!

    Even in the toughest of times, we can lean on Jesus and find rest for our souls. Never give up or agree with oppression. Put your faith in Jesus no matter how things look or how you feel, because God is good and when we put our trust in His Word, we find we are helped and rescued from every affliction.

    Thank you Father! Thank you Jesus! Thank you Holy Spirit! I praise you Lord for your free gift! I didn’t deserve it. I couldn’t earn it, but you gave it to me for free!! A savior who loves me so much that He died in my place. Wow! Wonderful news!

  • Where is your faith? Have you put it in the living God so that you might see the fullness of God in your life?

    Has Christ been formed in you? Have you planted the seeds of faith by meditating on the Word of God daily or have you been meditating on all that is happening in the news each day?

    Now is the time to choose God and take seriously His Word. Shut off the world and all that is corrupt and negative, so that you will have a better reality of Truth. God’s Word is Truth and it will never change or fail to produce good for all who take a hold of it and allow it to take root and become a fruitful tree begins to look like a life of righteousness and justice.

  • “We’ve been overwhelmed with grief; come now and overwhelm us with gladness. Replace our years of trouble with decades of delight. Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you’re famous for. O Lord our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us. Come work with us, and then our works will endure; you will give us success in all we do.”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭90‬:‭15‬-‭17‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    When the Lord’s presence and favor our on our lives and we know it, we become unstoppable in our works to bring God’s Kingdom to the Earth. Songs of praise fill our hearts and words of love and kindness are found in our mouths.

    When love is so powerful and pure what can we do but thank the Lord for all He has done to save and restore us back to Him? Let us rejoice and glory in our great and mighty God who reigns supreme through every age and every nation with power and glory on display in His children who know the ways of the Kingdom and adhere to the truth no matter what the outcome or penalty by the world.

  • If humans had taglines, what would yours be?

    Feast on what is good!

    Meaning don’t get filled up with nonsense, chaos, negativity or the world. Feast on the living God and you will have the best and become the best human who represents only what is good. Looking like Jesus instead of the angry and ugly people who feast on slander and violence.

  • No More Complaining or Negativity

    About nine years ago, the Lord corrected me and showed me the need to avoid negativity by stepping away from social media and the news. He wanted me to renew my mind through His Word and align my thoughts with His will, not the world’s.

    I hadn’t realized how negative my mindset was until I tried to change. I was surrounded by complaints and criticism—even my teacher once joked I’d run the complaint department at Neiman Marcus! But when God revealed it was not okay, I had to learn a new way to think—starting each day with gratitude instead of grumbling.

    Imagine a world where everyone replaced complaining with praise and thanksgiving—that’s exactly what God calls us to do. You may not hear an audible voice, but if you seek God through His Word, you will hear Him. Jesus said His sheep hear His voice. If you’re His, listen in faith and humility.

    God responds to praise, not accusations. He inhabits the praises of His people. When I stopped complaining and chose worship, I truly began to hear His voice and feel His presence.

    Please learn from my journey—complaining leads to misery, but praise leads to blessing. Let go of the negative, take hold of the garment of praise, and watch your life be filled with light, love, and the presence of God.

    “Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.” – Psalm 22:3


    “Just as a father loves his children, so the Lord loves those who fear and worship Him.” – Psalm 103:13 AMP


    “Jesus… was heard because of his reverence.” – Hebrews 5:7 ESV

    He is worthy. He loves you. Let your life be a song of thanksgiving to Him.

  • Paul prayed this prayer for the holy believers in his day to experience the fullness of God in them. To know the love of Jesus is what changes a person from selfishness and self seeking to open and flowing with the love of God that brings others out of the darkness and into the light of this extravagant love.

    When I had a visitation from the Lord in 2016, He told me that most people who say they know Him have never really known Him. He didn’t explain what that meant, but I truly feel it had to do with people being more religious than in right relationship with the Lord. Being in union with the Lord isn’t about following rules and laws, but about being in love and honoring the Lord by trusting Him completely with every area of our lives. From our children to what we should eat or where we should invest our money and time each day.

    When I first discovered this amazing Christ and all that it means to belong to Him, I was so completely saturated in love that it was impossible for me to pass by anyone in need and not reach out to help them. It wasn’t because I had to do that, but it was what I wanted to do, because I was complete and fully satisfied in the perfect love that I was saturated in daily.

    When we are free of thinking about what we have to do or what we can get, than we can discover what was done for us and how much more there is to gain by being in an intimate relationship with the Lord. He isn’t just a character from a book or out of history, He is my beloved and I am His.

    Leave everything behind and run with Him! It is so worth it!

    I pray this prayer over the body of believers and anyone who reads this post. Be blessed and filled up to the fullness of love!

    “And I pray that he would unveil within you the unlimited riches of his glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with his divine might and explosive power. Then, by constantly using your faith, the life of Christ will be released deep inside you, and the resting place of his love will become the very source and root of your life. Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God! Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination! He will outdo them all, for his miraculous power constantly energizes you. Now we offer up to God all the glorious praise that rises from every church in every generation through Jesus Christ—and all that will yet be manifest through time and eternity. Amen!”

    ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭21‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • Your Identity In Christ

    To live in your true identity means that you understand and accept your identity as a child of God, a new creation in Christ, and as someone uniquely gifted. The Bible emphasizes that true identity is not found in external achievements or circumstances, but in a relationship with God and the transformative power of Christ. 

    Key Scriptures:

    • John 1:12:
    “But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God”. 

    • 2 Corinthians 5:17:
    “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come”. 

    • 1 Corinthians 6:19-20:
    “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body”. 

    • Ephesians 2:10:
    “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared beforehand for us to do”. 

    • Galatians 2:20:
    “I have been crucified with Christ; and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me”. 

    • 1 Peter 2:9:
    “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the virtues of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light”. 

    Understanding Your True Identity:

    • Not Defined by External Factors: True identity is not determined by your job, relationships, achievements, or possessions. 

    • Gifted and Unique: God has given you unique gifts and abilities to use in His service. 

    • Part of a Larger Purpose: You are part of something bigger than yourself, a family of God and His kingdom. 

    • New Creation: Through faith in Christ, you are a new person, forgiven and transformed. 

    • Loved and Accepted: God loves you and accepts you as you are, not as you should be. 

    • Chosen and Set Apart: You are chosen by God and set apart for a purpose. 

    • Have Direct Access to God: You can come to God directly through Jesus, seeking His wisdom and guidance.

    We come boldly before the throne of God to seek mercy and grace in our time of need. We don’t come shaking and terrified to seek help from the Lord but we come boldly before Him, because of the Blood of Jesus. The Blood of Jesus is the ONLY thing that can cleanse us from an evil conscience of guilt. Don’t be afraid to wash in that blood everyday as often as is needed until your conscience is no longer filled with worthless thoughts and doubts, but you are clean and filled with gratitude for all that God has done to bring you back to Him.

  • “Since we first heard about you, we’ve kept you always in our prayers that you would receive the perfect knowledge of God’s pleasure over your lives, making you reservoirs of every kind of wisdom and spiritual understanding. We pray that you would walk in the ways of true righteousness, pleasing God in every good thing you do. Then you’ll become fruit-bearing branches, yielding to his life, and maturing in the rich experience of knowing God in his fullness! And we pray that you would be energized with all his explosive power from the realm of his magnificent glory, filling you with great hope. Your hearts can soar with joyful gratitude when you think of how God made you worthy to receive the glorious inheritance freely given to us by living in the light. He has rescued us completely from the tyrannical rule of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom realm of his beloved Son. For in the Son all our sins are canceled and we have the release of redemption through his very blood.”

    ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬-‭14‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • “And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’”

    ‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    It was March 2016 when I had a visitation from the Lord. In that visitation He shared many things with me about the times and the things coming soon. One of the things He mentioned was how the vapors of smoke in the skies are a sign of the times. I thought it was interesting that those vapors of smoke are so obvious yet, I have never heard one person mention them being written in scripture and a sign of the times.

    I have heard many conspiracy theories about them and even heard people who are strong believers fighting to have them stopped because they believe they are toxic poison or some other pollution that is meant to do harm.

    It really doesn’t mean anything to me about what people think of me. If I were looking for attention or wanting to make something up, I certainly wouldn’t do it regarding something so controversial that would only make me sound foolish and ignorant, but I am not making anything up and I have no reason to be silent about what the Lord said anymore.

    The Lord also said that people need to turn and help others. He said that three times. He said that the next thing to happen was for us to go up, because the new can’t come down until the old goes up. He said that all of my prayers had risen and filled His bowl and He was arousing Himself and coming to help me. He also said that He wanted to answer the prayer that I kept asking. I wanted to know how to stop the evil that was causing so many children and families to suffer and be destroyed. He said that there is only one thing that can destroy evil completely and that is LOVE.

    Think about that for a while and consider how you can personally contribute to removing all evil or adding to it.

    We all have choices each day to either be a blessing to others or be a hinderance or burden. We can choose to love and help or be resentful and bitter or angry and unforgiving, but we all suffer when people won’t forgive or look past offenses. No matter how bad they were, we have to let them go and forgive all, because we can’t be forgiven if we don’t!

  • America Arises in Christ

    I think this is worth sharing again so that people can fully understand how much more there is when it comes to letting Jesus be the Lord of your life. He isn’t a harsh King who finds faults and punishes me. He is a loving life partner who protects and covers me in His righteousness so that no one else sees my weaknesses, because His power is made perfect in those weaknesses.

    As I arise to awaken the dawn with my song, I find the sweetness of my beloved King Jesus filling my heart with joy and peace.

    He is the last thought before I fall asleep and the first thought when I wake. He fully has my attention and my affection because He is my greatest love and kindest friend.

    When I am struggling or troubled, He gladly takes all my cares and replaces them with peace. He said to remain in His love and I would never regret a thing. I trusted him with every detail of my life and gladly accepted His plan and destiny for me.

    He said there would be a great reward for not giving up when everyone around me wanted nothing to do with knowing him, and greatly mocked and made fun of me. It wasn’t possible for that to bother me because I had found the most beautiful gift and treasure that they would all some day discover too, but back then, it was only the King and I as we spent every moment praying, singing and dancing until the others all woke up and realized that I wasn’t crazy and God was always real and more than anything the world could ever give.

    So I might not be important in the eyes of the world, but I was captured by a glance of His eyes, and there is nothing that could ever be of greater value then knowing the Lord and Savior of the entire creation. 

    So don’t look down on me because I spent all of my last ten years focused on knowing only One thing; The Eternal King, because when He asked me to come away with Him, I didn’t make excuses but I dropped everything and went!

  • Jesus is the Solution

    When a person accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior they are never alone again. They have a friend who sticks closer than a brother. They have a life partner who will never turn his back on them. We are rescued from everything that once wanted to destroy and make us miserable. We have a holy and righteous friend who will intercede on our behalf to the Father.

    The author and the finisher of our faith. He is the One who will never let you go. He is faithful and good! Jesus is the great “I am”! Jesus is our Redeemer, our Hope, our Healer, our Deliverer, our Creator, our ever present Help! He is all in all and He is the hope of the nations! The name above other names! No one is like Him! We can fully trust Him forever! We cry out to Jesus and He delivers us again and again. Jesus you are so worthy! Nothing bigger! Nothing greater! Nothing more powerful! Nothing exalted higher and Nothing more worthy of our praise and love!

    Blessed! Blessed! and BLESSED beyond measure! Loved and never alone! Lift up Jesus with your praise and you will see how fast your circumstances turn around for good. He is our Peace and our life is hidden in Him. We are a new creation in Christ and we are no longer what we used to be but we are walking out our salvation with peace and hope and a faith that is the faith of God. Thank the Lord every single moment for His free gift of grace to carry us through the hardest days and preserve us for the best of times. We have so much to be thankful for and when we thank God for all He has given us, we will see clearly and go higher in love.

  • Who is the most confident person you know?

    The most confident person is always the one who knows the Truth and agrees with God’s plan and purposes, and that is Jesus, because He is the Truth and He is the word of God. He couldn’t self-doubt or be deceived into speaking against God’s plans, because He was God’s plan! He knew exactly who He was, and who He is and who He is to come! The only name given to man unto Salvation.

    So I would say that as a man who is eternal and is the resurrection and life, He has to be the most confident and faithful life that could ever exist.

    Who would be the 2nd most confident person would have to be President Trump, because he knows that God saved his life when his enemies tried to take him down again and again.

    So knowing that God called and chose him to make America prosperous and blessed like has never been done before, makes him the most confident because he knows he can’t fail!

  • He overshadows me with his radiant majesty. He is pleasing beyond words. Nothing compares to the joy and delight he brings to my heart. There are no worldly things that can satisfy my soul but He alone is where I find all my desire and pleasures. He has created all things and He keeps every thing for its proper time of favor and love. Not all are ready for His love, so He patiently awaits there season of love with him. What a beautiful blessing it is to hear the voice of love call out our name to come away with him. I would not want to miss a moment in His presence. Blessed be the Father, son and Holy Spirit for they are my praise and constant exaltation. There is fullness of joy in His intoxicating presence and pleasures at his right hand forevermore!

    It would have been impossible for me to believe that the Lord could love me like He does if I hadn’t turned aside to see and hear what He wanted to speak to me on the day the Holy Spirit took over my life. Before that I thought God was helping me by answering all of my prayers for the kids because He loved them, but I never thought that He could love me as His own child and that He could even be pleased with my life like He said to me that day, was the most bizarre and healing words that I could have been told. And when He went so far as to say that He has “loved me with an everlasting love” I was immediately released from years of fear and oppression that told me I was going to make God angry if I did or didn’t do things right. As He spoke my mind began pondering the words “everlasting love” and I felt His Love enter my heart right then and I believed all that He spoke and I was instantly a new creation that had never been before. Only the people who knew me back then could fully comprehend what took place with that one visitation that came with signs and wonders and was filled with intoxicating glory.

    How deeply the Father loves us and how completely He gives all He has for us to rise up and walk in that higher realm of glory and peace that none can understand who live away from God, but all will discover as they begin to seek Him with their whole heart. It was so good and so drastically different than all I ever knew or thought before that day.

    There was no more need to compete or to find fault with others, but there was a deep impartation of wisdom and grace that became my reality and the manifestation of Christ in me so great that it was no longer I, but Christ in me to work and will for His good pleasure.

    It was a peace and a love so all consuming and glorious that even my closest friends and family who spoke evil about me and my love for the Lord, had no power to harm me. I was rejected everywhere and could only pray from afar about the things God wanted to bring about. I prayed 24/7 many weeks and sleep wasn’t even an issue because I never wanted to sleep with so much revelation pouring into me day and night as I stood at my post and worshipped the Lord with songs of His power and beauty.

    There was no one too far gone or too scary to reach out to help. Even the most hated criminals were suddenly weeping like babies as I would talk to them drenched in that glorious love.

    People would tell me that they wanted to end their lives before I showed up out of nowhere to help them. They didn’t know that they were loved so perfectly by God and that He was always open to hear their prayers for help. They would learn how nothing was impossible with God and no one was outside of His sight.

    As the people would receive the good news of forgiveness and grace that was available for them to rise up in love, they were suddenly able to see that all the things that once hurt them were not God’s will, but they could see from His lens of mercy and redemption and begin to pray for the ones who hurt them to be forgiven and receive the only love that is able to transform the hardest of hearts and heal the deepest of wounds.

    God is so good and faithful and desires for all to call on the name of Jesus and be saved from the deception of the falsehoods of who they are and who God really is.

  • What bores you?

    Who has time to be bored in this beautiful life we are so blessed to have been given?

    There are so many wonderful things to see and do and so many people who could use an encouraging word or a little boost from prayers.

    Jesus is always available to create an adventure that is perfect just for you! So if anyone is bored today, why not ask the Lord to show you something that you never knew and lead you somewhere that you have never been. Perhaps a higher realm where everyone is filled with life and joy in Christ Jesus! Just a suggestion from someone who has lived in boredom and then met Jesus and moved up higher where only good exists and nothing is better than living from the heart of God! So delicious and delightful!

    Don’t take my word for it, experience it for yourself! Call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved. There is so much more for all who are seeking Him!!

  • www.bible.com/en/videos/47517

    This video is the simplest way to help someone understand who they are once they receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. No longer living for selfish desires or for the will of man, but now they are living stones being built up together as a dwelling place for God to live.

    When I first heard the Good News and believed it in my heart, I was given the gift of the Holy Spirit of God. I knew nothing about what that really meant yet, but I was excited to learn and that was the first key to the new life in Christ; wanting to learn and grow up into all that God has planned for each individual.

    Each day I would spend hours reading or listening to the Word of God through the wonderful Bible App that makes it possible for people everywhere to have the Word of God for Free. When I read the gospels, I was surprised and confused, because I didn’t know anyone anywhere that was living like Jesus had taught to the early church. It was sad and made me wonder what happened that caused the nation to be so far from where Jesus said we should be living (in His Love).

    I knew that God was real after He very powerfully answered my prayers and told me to pray bigger because He wanted to do far more than the tiny request that I was asking from Him (to save one life a day). Well that set me on a wild adventure that has no ending of course, but had definitely been a lot of tears, laughter, prayers and peace that can’t be explained because the same situations cause people away from God to literally become insane or end up with a nightmare of a life that looks and feels like hell.

    That is the best way I can describe it to a nonbeliever, because there is no peace for the wicked (unbelievers), but Jesus said that His family members are those who do the will of His Father.

    So what is the will of the Father? To believe and accept the One He sent into the world to take away the sin of the world and reconcile man back to God forever. That was of course Jesus our Messiah and King. He was sent only to the house of Israel at that time, but His own people rejected Him and crucified Him while asking for a murderer to be released instead by Pilate. The people preferred a murderer over the Son of God to live among them.

    Think on that for a moment and see how that same thing plays out every day with every person at some point or another choosing a murderer over a savior out of spiritual blindness and deception.

    God isn’t trying to trick anyone. In fact, He was clear from the beginning that He would send a savior for all people one day. He gave all of the details of his arrival and even his descent into hell. The only part not known was that it was all meant to cause all people to be in need of mercy and grace so that not one person could stand accusing another for their misdeeds because all were assigned to disobedience by God so all would need a Savior! Jesus is the Only One who is able to save even the most awful sinners draped in darkness. No matter what they have done, Jesus is still able to make them brand new by removing completely that weight of sin’s guilt so they can stand before God unstained and innocent.

    If people refuse to accept the free gift of salvation by accepting what Jesus did for them and making Him their Lord, they will live condemned for all of their sins no matter how good they think they are, none is good enough to make themselves clean without the shed blood of Jesus.

    The enemy is the one who blinds the minds of the unbelievers so they live deceived and delusional. Not only that but they have satan as their master and they don’t even know it. They chose a murderer instead of a Savior! Do you see the wisdom of God through this disobedience of the people? He needed people to stop accusing and harming others and start forgiving and loving each other.

    He didn’t create the world to be full of wars and all sorts of violence and hatred. He created it to be a place where He could interact with the people He created and loved with an everlasting love. He wanted a family, but not the selfish, greedy, spiteful, bitter and cruel humanity that came through the fallen seed of Adam who gave satan his authority and lost his place with God.

    Don’t stay in the darkness. Ask the Lord to save you and give you a life of joy and grace that He has waiting for each of us. Come home all you lost and broken souls under the wrong master. We were all there and many still are now, so don’t think you will be judged by anyone in God’s true family when you come home. I can’t guarantee that won’t happen if you go into religion and the traditions of man. Get the truth and don’t let go of it! It is Jesus!

  • It is crucial to understand as a believer in Jesus, we have certain legal rights that belong to us and we are no longer under a curse. In Christ, we are the redeemed so declare it and don’t agree with the flu or any other sickness or disease for you or your family.

    Instead of declaring that you probably got the flu or whatever sickness is going around right now, declare that by the stripes that Jesus took, you are healed. Tell your body what it will accept and what it is to reject. Speak over yourself healing scriptures and do it as often as you can until your faith is able to only believe the Truth.

    The covenant of healing is also known as the covenant of “Jehovah-Rapha” or “The Lord thy Healer”. It’s described in Exodus 15:26

    God’s word is truth and the highest authority in heaven and on the earth. His Word is Jesus. Speak the name of Jesus over all that doesn’t align with the will of God and declare the promised of God over yourself and your loved ones.

    Be bold and know who you are in Christ and what belongs to you because of what Jesus did for you. Don’t accept the guilt or the condemnation that is NOT part of the Believer’s inheritance.

  • Keep God’s Word fresh in your heart by asking the Lord to lead you to the scriptures that you will need for each day. He will gladly help you open the Bible to the very page you need! He is able to do so much more than people have allowed Him to do in their lives. It requires faith to live in a close daily intimate relationship with the Lord. He isn’t hard to please, He is only good and helpful to all who believe. But if you don’t believe, you will struggle until you finally grasp the Truth and see that God has always been there and He has always answered your prayers and helped all who ask.

    “Then, as you unwrap my words, they will impart true life and radiant health into the very core of your being.”

    ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭22‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    People who are deceived and blinded to Jesus are that way because the devil is the ruler over the sons of disobedience or rebellious ones. Why are they rebellious, because they have not believed in the plan of God’s salvation which is defined in the scriptures of the Holy Bible and the ONLY way for man to reconciled to the Father by receiving Jesus and believing in His name and the finished work he did for us to all be one with the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.


  • ““Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis. Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me. For all that I require of you will be pleasant and easy to bear.””

    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    When my life seems too hard with cares and burdens like stress from a job, kids needing help with school work and activities, a sickness, an aged parent needing help or whatever else comes to make me feel pressured and overwhelmed, Jesus is the One who is able to carry all of those burdens for me while allowing me to simply rest in His love while he is working everything together for good.

    Letting Jesus take every care from me releases me from the negative impact stress and worry have on the body and mind. Jesus tells us that worrying can add nothing to a person’s life, but instead subtracts from it peace and joy, so we should never live a worried life thinking about tomorrow or the things we have no control over anyway. So we cast our cares on Him, because He cares for us.

    If you want to live a life of freedom and peace, unite your life with Christ and follow His directions that are detailed in the scriptures as the way to live a life that brings blessing to others, because it doesn’t add to the burdens and demands of what you want to get from people but instead what you can release for them to have peace and joy.

    A calm mind is one that has found trust in God and no longer seeks out self-preservation or what it can get from others, because it has the peace and wisdom that comes from trusting God’s plan of salvation and walking in the righteousness that is imparted through faith in Jesus.

    I am not worried about what others might think of me anymore, because I am not living to be accepted in the world, but rather as one reborn to a life in Christ. I was accepted by God and am now living for His glory and honor that comes through trusting in His plan of salvation.

    There is nothing difficult about Jesus or the Kingdom of God. If you are running around doing things to please God, you can stop wearing yourself out and start surrendering yourself and all of your cares to Christ instead. He never asked us to solve the problems of the culture, because He is the solution to every issue.

    People who know Him, are eager to pray for the people but not willing to listen or accept the weights they carry as necessary, because we are never to worry or fear.

    Living in dread and fear of what might happen is a sign of not trusting God. We have all found ourselves in that position at one time or another, but remember the words of Jesus produce abundance of life and they don’t demand from your life but refresh and heal it.

    Live loved and free from the cares of the world by seeking God first every day and letting Him take all that you are concerned with so that you can be joyful and full of gratitude and praise to God for all that He does each day for you.

  • “Lord, in my place of weakness and need, won’t you turn your heart toward me and hurry to help me? For you are my Savior, and I’m always in your thoughts. So don’t delay to deliver me now, for you are my God.”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭70‬:‭5‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    https://bible.com/bible/1849/psa.70.5.TPT

    God answers prayers and He doesn’t ignore the cries of the desolate and needy.

    Ask and BELIEVE God will help you as soon as you cry out to Him in faith. Faith in God being good and willing to help!

    When you trust and praise God, you will see how great He is because you have believed He is good.

    The enemy wants people to think that God has done all the bad things that causes loss and harm, but God is Love and Jesus came to bring abundance of life!

    The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy and he is called the father of lies!

    So know the Truth so that you are free!



  • ““And it shall come about that whoever calls on the name of the Lord Will be saved [from the coming judgment] For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem There will be those who escape, As the Lord has said, Even among the remnant [of survivors] whom the Lord calls. [Acts 2:17-21; Rom 10:13]”

    ‭‭Joel‬ ‭2‬:‭32‬ ‭AMP‬‬


    Thank the Lord for His mercy and call on His name to escape judgement.

    It is written in the new testament that all who call on the name of Jesus will be saved.

    There is only one name and one way to escape the judgment of God and that is to call on the name of Jesus and He will save you! Believe and trust that He is enough and He will not fail to save you.

    He can do so much more if you decide to follow him and let him lead you every day by the Holy Spirt, but that does require an open heart that knows it is forgiven and agrees only with God’s word which is the best and highest truth that brings freedom and great joy.

    God’s grace is enough to get you through every trial of life if you choose to receive it daily.

  • How many times has the enemy convinced a person that they are too far gone or have messed up too much for God to help or care? The enemy is a liar and that is what we need to always remember!

    But God is good and His faithful love and mercy are without end! God doesn’t give up on us. He always has a beautiful plan and longs for all of His children to trust and worship Him and not their problems.

  • My Heart’s Delight

    As I arise to awaken the dawn with my song, I find the sweetness of my beloved King Jesus filling my heart with joy and peace.

    He is the last thought before I fall asleep and the first thought when I wake. He fully has my attention and my affection because He is my greatest love and kindest friend.

    When I am struggling or troubled, He gladly takes all my cares and replaces them with peace. He said to remain in His love and I would never regret a thing. I trusted him with every detail of my life and gladly accepted His plan and destiny for me.

    He said there would be a great reward for not giving up when everyone around me wanted nothing to do with knowing him, and greatly mocked and made fun of me. It wasn’t possible for that to bother me because I had found the most beautiful gift and treasure that they would all some day discover too, but back then, it was only the King and I as we spent every moment praying, singing and dancing until the others all woke up and realized that I wasn’t crazy and God was always real and more than anything the world could ever give.

    So I might not be important in the eyes of the world, but I was captured by a glance of His eyes, and there is nothing that could ever be of greater value then knowing the Lord and Savior of the entire creation.

    Peace and joy are the only options when you live in the place of his heart and know the love that is so perfect and without flaw, that all you can do is become love and pour out that same grace, mercy and peace everywhere you go.

    A love that is too great for words and too beautiful to envision without distorting it, so I will simply say, if you seek, you will find. If you ask, you will receive and if you knock, the door will be opened. Thank you Jesus, for being my reality and my life. I wouldn’t want to miss a second with you.

  • No More Looking Back

    Reliving a past traumatic event over and over doesn’t make a person better so sharing that stuff with a psychiatrist and focusing on all that is wrong and bad doesn’t create a better life for anyone but it actually cause’s a person to be worse off than if they never went to the doctor or therapist.  

    Below are keys to living free of sickness.  

    These are from the scriptures although the wording may not be exact-paraphrasing most of them.

     

    *Casting all of our cares on God because He cares for us. 1 Peter 5:7

    *not allowing offense to take root and cause bitterness to sprout up.  Hebrews 12:15

    *Forgiving all who do you wrong 

    Matt 6:14

    *praying for our enemies Matt 5:43

    *returning evil actions with a blessing and love instead of hate 1Peter 3:8-9

    *keeping all of our thoughts aligned with God and not dwelling on the bad. Stuff

    *whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8

    There are so many more that I could highlight that will help people understand why they are the way they are or why they struggle in an area.  

    The Bible is not just a little reference guide to God.  It is the very keys to life that will bring about a new creation and transformation for all us who believe and act on it.  Doing what they hear and not just reading and forgetting the words.  It should be the first and foremost book for every person and it should be taught in school at every grade level! That is a scheme of the enemy to remove it and praying obviously but people fell for the lies and ridiculous reasoning.  All of those lies can be pulled down because they are strongholds over the minds! 

    God has given me truth that overcomes the world. 

    Jesus who is the Truth

    These declarations are not just positive affirmations to make one feel better about themselves. They are actual truths that are filled with the Spirit of God because God’s Word is spirit and truth that heals and makes right all that is wrong or under oppression of the enemy!

    “I am fearfully and wonderfully made”.  “By his stripes I am healed”. “With his wounds, we are healed” “He forgives all my iniquities and heals all my diseases”. “Nothing by any means shall harm you” “All authority on earth and in Heaven belongs to the Lord Jesus” and He has given me the right to use His name and destroy the works of the enemy!

    The following are not truths because they are not from God, but they come from the fallen man’s thoughts and feelings which must be transformed and renewed by the Word of God through the working of the Holy Spirit teaching and leading us into all truth.

    “My body is prone to sickness”  “I always get the flu or whatever is going around”. “It runs in my family” “We are cursed in our family with…”.  “All of the kids are likely to get that disease” “They must be vaccinated in order to keep them from contracting the virus” “We can’t afford …”. “We will never get out of debt!” “We always get attacked when things finally start to get a little better”. “We can’t give anything to help, because we don’t have enough.”

    Let me just say that all of those statements are the opposite of God’s will/word so when people speak them, they are speaking the plans of the devil! The one who has plans to kill, steal and destroy all of mankind!

    But if a person struggling to pay their rent declares in faith, “All my needs are met and I lack for nothing in Christ!” “Because Jesus became poor so that through his poverty I am now made rich!” God supplies for all of my needs including rent and healing for my sick family members, according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus!” Not my riches and glory but His!!! God supplied and not me! God should be your everything all of the time! He wants all people to turn and be saved! But people out of fear and deception think they can’t trust God or that God doesn’t really mean what He says when He said that “NOTHING BY ANY MEANS CAN HARM YOU” if you abide in Him.

    What happens when people learn the Truth and experience the Living God as their righteousness and the correct standard of living? 

    What happened to the people in the past that broke free from the schemes and distractions and all the deceptions?  

    I don’t know, but I do know that when I tried to share the Truth and help people, they couldn’t or wouldn’t receive the truth but held onto oppression and what the world says is the only way. Jesus is the Only way for eternal life and the devil is the way for destruction and death. People only have two choices-life or death, which could be said, blessings or cursed, or your Lord and Master is either Jesus -the Messiah or Lucifer -satan the devil. There are no other choices. Good or evil are the options. God is good and the devil is a destroyer of all that is good.

    If you have love and honor others and pray for all people to be blessed and saved, you belong to God.

    If you speak terrible things about others and accuse and complain about everyone and everything, you are in the devil’s kingdom.

    Begin a new pathway of love and righteousness by surrendering your life to Jesus and accepting His atonement for all of your former sins, and you will be free from the devil’s kingdom and translated into the Kingdom of God. So simple and so much better! Nothing is good without God. He loves us so much and He knows how to keep us from going the wrong way.

  • “Yet all of the accomplishments that I once took credit for, I’ve now forsaken them and I regard it all as nothing compared to the delight of experiencing Jesus Christ as my Lord! To truly know him meant letting go of everything from my past and throwing all my boasting on the garbage heap. It’s all like a pile of manure to me now, so that I may be enriched in the reality of knowing Jesus Christ and embrace him as Lord in all of his greatness. My passion is to be consumed with him and not cling to my own “righteousness” based in keeping the written Law. My only “righteousness” will be his, based on the faithfulness of Jesus Christ—the very righteousness that comes from God. And I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me. I will be one with him in his sufferings and become like him in his death. Only then will I be able to experience complete oneness with him in his resurrection from the realm of death.”

    ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭3‬:‭7‬-‭11‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • Zion is the New Jerusalem that comes down from God as a Holy City where God will dwell forever.

    Through the finished work of Jesus, people can become a new creation born again by the Spirit of God and made into a permanent dwelling place for the living God. There is no sickness in these people who have fully believed the Word of God and surrender all of their cares to God and trust the Lord to lead them daily. They are not concerned about what they will eat or wear. They are consumed by the Lord Jesus and they look at no man for their strength, but Jesus alone is their fortress of safety and their peace in times of trouble.

    The people. Of God are not fixed on the problems of the day, because they live in the True Reality of God’s salvation which is the Lord Jesus.

    Being made one with Christ, they no longer seek after selfishness or making themselves exalted, but they live to exalt the Lord Jesus in everything they say and do.

    You can spot these beautiful and holy ones by the way they love and care for others without fear or dread. For they are only doing what they hear and see their Father doing. Healing the sick, setting free the oppressed, caring for the weak and feeding the hungry. They have a rich abundance of spiritual food to feed others and their lives are overflowing with the lavish love of God Himself. They are the shining lights in a time of darkness for others. They don’t lead others astray, but they guide them as the children of God to the source of all nourishment and true life.

    Speaking words of truth in love, they help those who are being led astray by wrong thinking and the ways of the unbelievers who want to lead others into error by proclaiming them peace when they have none themselves to give.

    People who love to create new crisis and issues of falsehood that came from their own rejection of the truth and the desire to rule themselves by allowing themselves to listen to fear, and failure rather than the Words of God which are Spirit and life. When you hear leaders of nations full of anger and making declarations of doom and destruction for their people if they won’t vote for them or if they refuse to accept their own sinful plans that cause innocent lives to be destroyed in error, these are not the people you can put your faith or trust in to create a brighter or better tomorrow, because it is only the faith in God that brings beautiful outcomes and causes righteousness to flourish in a nation.

    Man without God, is under the power of the enemy of God known as satan or the accuser of the brethren, because he is always bringing charges against God’s creation and trying to get them to look and act like him rather than like the One who gives them life and who loves them so much that He sent His only begotten son into the world to die for all the sins of man from the beginning through eternity, so that all could be reconciled back to God through believing on Jesus as their Savior and being washed clean by the blood of the lamb (Jesus was that sacrificial lamb of God). Through the blood of Jesus all men can receive freedom from the guilt and condemnation and weight of sin. It is only the blood of Jesus that can ever make any man right with God. Nothing else will make a person right on their own because nothing else has the power to remove the stain snd disgrace of sin.

    If a person believes they are made right with God through the finished works of Jesus, they have the boldness to come before God and ask for help in their time of need and they will receive mercy and grace to empower them to make it through anything this world can throw at them.

  • There is a divine calling and destiny for every person who is born again by the Holy Spirit into a living hope of Jesus.

    We don’t work our way into salvation. We receive Christ through faith and the Holy Spirit begins His work of teaching and leading us into all Truth.

    We are saved by God’s grace and not our own doing or what we can do. God did everything for us and we are to receive and begin renewing our minds to align with the Truth.

    We receive a new heart that is pure and filled with faith, hope and love. Our eyes are opened to God and we begin an amazing adventure into all that God has planned for each of us.

    How great it is to know that we are no longer under the bondage of the old systems and ways of a fallen mindset and world in darkness. We have received the light of the world when we accepted Christ as our Lord and Savior and now we no longer see or think in the way of the corrupt world, because we have the light to lead us into the higher pathway of love.

    The Way of Love

    13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

    Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

    Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

    13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

  • If you have not experienced this yet, you have so much more that you don’t want to miss out on. This is the time to seek the Lord with your whole heart.

    If you need to leave all that you know behind in order to experience this perfect love, just do it! Nothing is more valuable and satisfying than to live in the fullness of the One who created all of us to become His beloved!

    “I have found the One my soul loves.” Song of Solomon 3:4

  • “And I pray that he would unveil within you the unlimited riches of his glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with his divine might and explosive power. Then, by constantly using your faith, the life of Christ will be released deep inside you, and the resting place of his love will become the very source and root of your life.”

  • “Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!”

  • I have shared the scriptures week after week to help people grasp the Truth and gain insight on the Gospel which means Good News. I don’t have anything negative or ugly to share, because I keep my eyes on Jesus. I don’t look to the news or media outlets for my growth, but only to the Truth, because it is more real to me than all the things this world celebrates and believes as their reality.

    Reality is truth. Are you living in a false reality that will someday be exposed as a lie and everything you know will be completely shaken and collapse, because it will not stand in the face of Truth if it is a deception and a false reality.

    “There is a divine mystery—a secret surprise that has been concealed from the world for generations, but now it’s being revealed, unfolded and manifested for every holy believer to experience. Living within you is the Christ who floods you with the expectation of glory! This mystery of Christ, embedded within us, becomes a heavenly treasure chest of hope filled with the riches of glory for his people, and God wants everyone to know it! Christ is our message! We preach to awaken hearts and bring every person into the full understanding of truth. It has become my inspiration and passion in ministry to labor with a tireless intensity, with his power flowing through me, to present to every believer the revelation of being his perfect one in Jesus Christ.”

    ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬-‭29‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    All the people who say there is no God or they think that God is something that He is not, are in need of a love invasion from the One who created them in His image.

    He made us in His image which means we all have similarities as God and He wants all of us to be in His loving care where evil cannot destroy us anymore. It might not make sense to anyone who has never known anything about the Lord, but it will not make you wise to pretend that He isn’t real. It will keep you under the Lordship of the oppressor who is also known as satan, Lucifer and the devil.

    There are only two choices to decide which you want as your Master. If you think you are your own master, that is also deception because satan is the one who has dominion over all who are not one with Jesus.

    How do you know if you belong to God? You ask Him to be your Lord and Savior and to cleanse you and make you a new creation through the powerful working of His Holy Spirit.

    These are the fruits of the Holy Spirit:

    Goodness, Love, joy, peace, faithfulness, humility, gentleness, kindness, patience..

    These are the fruits of the flesh-(not walking in Christ): sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger.

    When you see Christians with those last characteristics you can be sure that they have never fully known the Love of God or they have been taken captive to the lies of the enemy that tells them God is mad at them or they messed up to many times or anything that says God is not a loving and merciful Father. If you mess up, you run to God who will help you, and not from him. He will keep you safe and work everything together for your good if you will let Him help you.

    He is the kindest most forgiving and patient helper and friend that you will ever have. It will blow you away how wonderful He is to all who turn to Him for help.

    There is one thing that people must do to abide in Christ and walk in the light and that is they must forgive all who have hurt them in the past and release all of those old wounds to Jesus so He can replace them with peace and love to keep you from being crushed by the enemy.

    I pray that this helps at least one person salvation in Jesus when they read this, and if that one is you, would you please comment, so I can pray for all that will help accelerate your life with Jesus?

    Be blessed and remember that there is only one thing that can destroy evil completely and that is LOVE! That is TRUTH!

  • What is Truth? Eternal reality that will NEVER change or fail, because it is the highest authority and the only everlasting power is in Christ given by the Creator and the author and finisher of our faith.

    We try to justify the deception and the twisted logic and false realities to the point of keeping people in bondage and making God seem like a liar, but He has not deceived anyone. The people have been deceived when they agreed with half-told truths and life experiences rather than the actual Truth which is Christ-the truth, the life and the way! The living Word of God manifest in the flesh of a man in order to break the curse and bring the people out of darkness and into the Truth -the light of God-

    God is Love therefore Love is light and it is not what people have made it to be with their wrong interpretations or false beliefs.

    God is good and that is absolutely True! So if He is good, He is not doing the evil things that happen in this world.

    The Scriptures are a roadmap for eternal life and a journey for all people to embark upon and discover the most beautiful love story ever written.

    The best part of the love story is that you get to play the role of the Beloved of God and receive all of His promises and live above the natural realm of the fallen man if you choose to believe all that is written and don’t allow religion to get into your heart or cloud your thinking.

    Be set free by taking a hold of the Truth! Be transformed by renewing your mind to agree with God’s will and you will be forever grateful that you did! There is nothing better than being fully awakened and mature in Christ. Nothing compares and nothing will ever satisfy the soul without God.

    “My spirit arose to open for more of his touch. As I surrendered to him, I began to sense his fragrance— the fragrance of his suffering love! It was the sense of myrrh flowing all through me!

    I opened my soul to my beloved, but suddenly he was gone! And my heart was torn out in longing for him. I sought his presence, his fragrance, but could not find him anywhere. I called out for him, yet he did not answer me.

    I will arise and search for him until I find him. As I walked throughout the city in search of him, the overseers stopped me as they made their rounds. They beat me and bruised me until I could take no more. They wounded me deeply and removed my covering from me.

    Nevertheless, make me this promise, you brides-to-be: if you find my beloved one, please tell him I endured all travails for him. I’ve been pierced through by love, and I will not be turned aside!

    What love is this? How could you continue to care so deeply for him? Isn’t there another who could steal away your heart? We see now your beauty, more beautiful than all the others. What makes your beloved better than any other? What is it about him that makes you ask us to promise you this?

    He alone is my beloved. He shines in dazzling splendor yet is still so approachable— without equal as he stands above all others, outstanding among ten thousand! The way he leads me is divine. His leadership—so pure and dignified as he wears his crown of gold. Upon this crown are letters of black written on a background of glory. He sees everything with pure understanding. How beautiful his insights—without distortion. His eyes rest upon the fullness of the river of revelation, flowing so clean and pure. Looking at his gentle face, I see such fullness of emotion. Like a lovely garden where fragrant spices grow — what a man! No one speaks words so anointed as this one — words that both pierce and heal, words like lilies dripping with myrrh. See how his hands hold unlimited power! But he never uses it in anger, for he is always holy, displaying his glory. His innermost place is a work of art— so beautiful and bright. How magnificent and noble is this one— covered in majesty! He’s steadfast in all he does. His ways are the ways of righteousness, based on truth and holiness. None can rival him, but all will be amazed by him.

    Most sweet are his kisses, even his whispers of love. He is delightful in every way and perfect from every viewpoint. If you ask me why I love him so, O brides-to-be, it’s because there is none like him to me. Everything about him fills me with holy desire! And now he is my beloved—my friend forever.”

  • Have you ever thought that God was the one who caused you suffering or pain or for a loved one passing? There are many people who have been fed lies about God and sadly most of them were likely from church people who have never known God. I was certain that I could never fall or be deceived about who God is and how great His love and mercy are for His creation, but after a series of events that all seemed to be so easy to move past before were not letting me escape, I began to speak in agreement with the deception rather than the truth of God’s Word. I was starting to declare the things that were mere circumstances as my reality instead of exalting Jesus over those things, I began blaming the problems on the One who would never do those things. I didn’t know what happened to me, because I would have never thought those things a year earlier, but somehow the more I thought on the wrong thoughts, the more I believed them and began agreeing with them. It was a terrible time and I was spiraling down fast and had no hope, but Jesus is the most faithful and kind friend and Savior. He somehow managed to put up with all of my negativity and continued to help and lead me

  • “Sharing words of wisdom is satisfying to your inner being. It encourages you to know that you’ve changed someone else’s life. Your words are so powerful that they will kill or give life, and the talkative person will reap the consequences.”

    ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭18‬:‭20‬-‭21‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    No need to add to God’s words as people often like to do. The only thing that is needed is the Holy Spirit to fully grasp the depths of the Word of God and make it alive and active in our lives everyday.

    If you have never received the Holy Spirit, today is the day to pray to receive that fire baptism from God and become in sync with Heaven’s plans and purposes for this time.

    Just remember that your words will direct your future as you speak life and truth, or if you are speaking sickness, lack and death. Your mouth is the one creating that pathway forward or to the broken down shack going nowhere!

    Speak God’s Word and live.

  • I met a homeless woman about six months ago that was standing on the side of the road with a blanket wrapped around her in the middle of the night. I pulled over to see if I could help her. I had just gone through the drive through at the 24 hour McDonalds and purchased food for two people, but didn’t know who it was for yet. As I offered her the food, I noticed that she was pregnant. I am not sure how I even noticed that, because it wasn’t obvious when I looked at her later, and she seemed shocked when I asked her about it, so I guess it wasn’t noticeable to others yet. Anyway, it was cold outside and this poor woman had no where to go, because she was in the midst of trying to break free from a painful past that was still forcing her to live on the streets and be separated from her children. I made her get in my car to warm up, and I told her that I would pay for her to stay in a motel so she could get a good nights sleep and a shower.
    After I got her checked in to the only place in the area that would take her, I ran and bought her some water and oranges and other snacks at the QT, and I grabbed her some clothes and a few books filled with Bible Promises that she could read and know that God loved her. (God usually has me bring items with me that I am going to need, so I know if I still have a car full of stuff, it isn’t time to go home yet!)
    When I returned, I could feel so much pain and torment coming from her that I asked if I could just pray for her real quick, so she could have some peaceful sleep, she was eager to receive my prayers and desperate for help.
    I won’t go into her personal story, because she doesn’t need to be identified by her past, but I will say that what God had sent me to do that night was more than just give her a place to sleep for the night. He wanted that poor woman free from the evil that was tearing her apart with shame and guilt for all of her mistakes. He needed her to know that she wasn’t forgotten or too far from rescuing and restoring. She was a beautiful daughter that lost her way, but God didn’t lose sight of her. He wanted her to know that she was not going to continue believing the lies about herself, because He was ready to heal her broken life and show her how much he loved her.
    Jesus paid for all of her sins with his life on the cross to give her abundant life, and he wanted her to know that she no longer had to carry that heavy burden of guilt and shame. We talked for an hour, and I told her to get some sleep, and to call me in the morning. I left her with such a sweet peace from Jesus that she slept better than she had in years she told me the next day.
    I truly didn’t know what would happen to her, but I continued to pray for her over the next few months. Then God sent me out in the middle of the night to help her again. I didn’t know I was going to help her, but I drove right to where she was standing all alone shivering in the cold. She looked terrible. She seemed to be very hardened and hurting terribly. I tried to just give her $40 and go home, but God put it on my heart to take her to my house and help her, because she needed someone that wouldn’t judge her, but would show her the kind of love that He had for her regardless of what she was doing to herself and kids.
    I told her that she could stay in our guest room for the night, and I would bring her wherever she needed to go in the morning. She was so cold and so tired, that she couldn’t say no even if she wanted to, so I got her some food and hot coffee and brought her to my house.
    People often have a look of panic when they hear that I bring total strangers to my house to shower and rest, but I don’t bring just anyone home. It has to be someone that God sent me to get. I trust God, and He has never failed me. In fact, He always blesses me for helping his hurting children.
    Since it was already 4am, and I knew she just wanted to be alone, I didn’t try to have a deep conversation with her. She seemed so sad that I really didn’t know what to say, so I just told her that we would figure something out in the morning, but to just please rest and let all of the worries go for the night.
    She seemed to have a new hope and a sense of restoration the next morning, so we hung out in my kitchen for hours just talking. She had a real sense or longing to want to help others more than herself, and the more I talked to her, the more I could see myself in her. I wondered how it could be that I had everything that I have and she had nothing when both of us had so much in common as far as personality and deep rooted beliefs. I wasn’t sure if I was sent to help her, or if she was actually helping me at that point, but I knew God was working on something that day.
    I ended up taking her to a parking lot later that afternoon where she hung out and knew the people in the area. I stopped and got food and some extra pizzas for the other homeless people there, and I felt a little sad leaving her there, but she said she would be fine, so I told her what God had put on my heart and shown me about her baby, and I prayed for her baby to be protected and healthy before she got out of the car.
    I truly didn’t know if her baby would make it, because of the things she was dealing with, and the fact that she never went to the doctor the whole time she was pregnant, but I couldn’t imagine that God would send me to her if He didn’t have a plan already for her and the baby, so I left it all in his hands.
    A few days later, I get a text from her asking if I could please get her a room for the night. She didn’t want to stay at my house, but wanted me to pay for another filthy motel room, so I was a bit reluctant and concerned about her possibly taking advantage of my generosity. I truly feel like a jerk for all of those thoughts now, but I am sharing them so that people can see that I am not the perfect servant of the Lord, but Christ in me, won’t let me just ignore a hurting person when I have the means to help and pray for them.
    “And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.” But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. He went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.’ Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.””

    They will know us by our love!
    I did pay for another motel room for her that night, and she kept telling me how grateful she was, and how awful she was. It was hard to hear her speak so negatively about herself, because I knew how God felt about her. I finally told her that was enough. She could no longer believe or speak lies that the enemy had told her about herself, because God now lived in her, and she was not the person that she once was. She tried to say that she knew she needed to be more positive, but she just didn’t feel worthy of love or acceptance by anyone. She wanted her daughter to know that she loved her so much more than she could know, but she just couldn’t get her life together.
    I told her that an addiction can never stop a person from loving, nor can it keep her from being loved. She was living on the streets in Chandler, because her daughter lived in Chandler, and it was her only hope of ever getting to see her. She said that she planned to see her everyday, but somehow the pull of the cravings for a drug would always destroy those plans. Satan probably knew that he was in trouble when he knew that I was sent to help her, because not only would she soon understand that in all of her shame and struggle with addiction and other issues, that God still loved her 100% as much as He loved me or anyone else, and He was eager for her to ask Him for help.
    I haven’t seen her since that last night in the motel room where I left her, but a few weeks ago the Holy Spirit told me to look her up on Facebook. After I pulled up her page, my heart melted and tears began streaming down my cheeks. There she was holding her new baby with her daughter smiling right beside them. She had several photos of her daughter and her doing things together, and when I looked at her posts over the months I saw how she went from posting evil pics that seemed like witchcraft to slowly moving into pics of scriptures and positive, encouraging words of hope, love and faith.
    God is so good! Won’t you please allow Him to use you to change a desperate life in darkness?
    Ezekiel 34:11-16 (ESV)

    The Lord God Will Seek Them Out
    11 “For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I, I myself will search for my sheep and will seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his sheep that have been scattered, so will I seek out my sheep, and I will rescue them from all places where they have been scattered on a day of clouds and thick darkness. 13 And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land. And I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the ravines, and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 I will feed them with good pasture, and on the mountain heights of Israel shall be their grazing land. There they shall lie down in good grazing land, and on rich pasture they shall feed on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord God. 16 I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and the fat and the strong I will destroy.[a] I will feed them in justice.

  • God Encounter

    When I had a visitation from the Lord in 2016, He told me that He wanted to answer my question that I kept asking in prayer. He said that I wanted to know how to stop the evil that was causing so much suffering for the children and families (I prayed so much that I wasn’t sure what question He was referring to until He reminded me). He told me that there is only one thing that can destroy evil completely and that is LOVE.

    What a beautiful and simple solution! I think that should be posted on billboards and social media as well as plastered across every nations constitution and placed on the walls in front of every one in every nation so that they never forget what the simple solution is to end every evil that ever existed!!!

    LOVE=God is Love

    The Lord went on to tell me that because I was asking Him if I could speak blessings over people everywhere (I was praying for people while driving and stuck in traffic in my car and at my home looking out the window at the apartment complex behind my house, and the one across the freeway and the hospital etc) and He told me that I definitely could bless the people anywhere at anytime even if they didn’t know I was praying for them to be blessed it wouldn’t stop them from getting blessed by my prayer and words of blessing over them.

    I was so excited to have such a profound understanding of God’s love for all of His people. He didn’t say that there were some people that didn’t get to be blessed because they were not worthy or that anyone was too bad to bless. In fact, He wanted ALL people to be blessed and know that He was the God who loves them with an everlasting love!

    Oh what an amazing few years we had (The Holy Spirit and I) as we drove all over the place pouring out blessings with prayers and decrees as well as material blessings to people in need everywhere! It was the most fun a person could ever have and it was all God’s idea and He blessed me with the grace to do it! As much as I would give out each day was as much and more that I would get back from Him each night. What a beautiful God we have! The Only time things were not good was when people would tell me awful things or speak terrible things about people and situations in front of me to the point of making me think wrong thoughts about others and myself. The Lord told me to release all of that to him because His Kingdom is not like that, and if we want to live in His presence, we can’t listen to slander and the mouths of those who have nothing good to say ever.

  • Shortly after receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit I was on a trip and alone in my hotel room getting ready for bed and the Holy Spirit told me to look into my eyes in the mirror. So I began to look at my eyes and I saw something that I never expected. I saw two women evangelists who had great healing ministries that I had been watching on youtube a lot at that time. I was surprised and confused and figured it was time to get some sleep after traveling all day.

    The next day was a big luncheon at our nations capital to honor the children who have lost their lives from abuse and neglect every day. I sat next to people that I didn’t know but they were friends of one of the women that I saw when I looked in my eyes the night before so we talked for awhile and then the man said, “So how long has Kathryn Kuhlman’s spirit been with you?” That was the other woman that I saw the night before in my eyes, and now I was seriously freaked out, because I was barely a baby yet in my new Christian walk, and I had only known that God was real after He spoke to me about my prayers that He answered and told me to pray bigger because He was doing more than saving one kid a day from abuse like I was asking.

    I didn’t like that someone else’s spirit was with me, because it didn’t sound right from what little I knew about the scriptures at that point, so I later prayed and was told to devote myself to learning and seeking more about Jesus.

    A few months later after just devouring the Word of God at least seven hours a day and listening to it while I slept even, the Holy Spirit told me to look in my eyes again. This time I saw Jesus. It was crazy amazing and I never told people about it, because I knew they would think I was crazy, and I was crazy over the top in love with Jesus! My life was so radically transformed that nothing else mattered to me but being with Jesus and going wherever He would lead.

    That was the beginning of the best adventure anyone could ever dream or hope to have.

    There is nothing that could ever steal my devotion from my love for the Lord. He was more real to me than my own family, and everything was with him and for him from then on.

    My point in sharing that story was to help others understand that following Jesus and being fixed on him doesn’t look like chasing ministries or leaders or special teachings etc, but it means truly giving yourself fully to the Lord and being 100% fixed on Him!

  • This is the Betty that I remember and loved. She was such a beautiful, selfless friend to everyone. She welcomed me and my son Jacob right into her family and she never treated Jacob as if he were anything but her Grandson. She went to my parents house in Wichita and got their measurements for our wedding and then she took my mom shopping and helped her pick out a dress that Betty paid for even though the Brides parents would traditionally be paying for the wedding. She just wanted to be a blessing for us and make sure everything went smoothly. As soon as she heard that we were expecting Christian in 2000, she took early retirement and moved to Arizona after a lifetime in Kansas where all of her friends and family lived. She left all of it behind to help us raise our kids. She was amazing and I don’t even think we realized how much she gave and did for us. My point is just to say that even though parents or in laws can sometimes seem like a pain in the % they most likely are that way because they don’t know what to do to help anymore. And that is all they ever knew how to do. So just be kind and let them know they are loved and still needed.

  • “What if God had not been on our side? Let all Israel admit this! What if God had not been there for us? Our enemies, in their violent anger, would have swallowed us up alive! The nations, with their flood of rage, would have swept us away, and we would have drowned and perished beneath their torrent of terror! We can praise God over and over that he never left us! God wouldn’t allow the terror of our enemies to defeat us. We are free from the hunter’s trap; their snare is broken and we have escaped! For the same God who made everything, our Creator and our mighty maker, he himself is our helper and defender!”

  • “There is a divine mystery—a secret surprise that has been concealed from the world for generations, but now it’s being revealed, unfolded and manifested for every holy believer to experience.

    Living within you is the Christ who floods you with the expectation of glory!

    This mystery of Christ, embedded within us, becomes a heavenly treasure chest of hope filled with the riches of glory for his people, and God wants everyone to know it!

    Christ is our message!

    We preach to awaken hearts and bring every person into the full understanding of truth.

    It has become my inspiration and passion in ministry to labor with a tireless intensity, with his power flowing through me, to present to every believer the revelation of being his perfect one in Jesus Christ.”

    ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬-‭29‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    If everyone fully understood this divine mystery that was revealed over two thousand years ago, the people would no longer live fearful and timid, but they would unlock that treasure chest on the inside and begin to express the reality of God’s presence and existence in their lives.

    The world is waiting for the Sons and Daughters of God to be revealed so that everything can begin to shift into the Heavenly culture that glorifies God and brings great joy and peace to all. Lives are set free from the corruption and lust in the world, and evil is removed through the love that is poured out in prayers for all people and nations.

  • If you could host a dinner and anyone you invite was sure to come, who would you invite?

    I would invite the poor and all those who couldn’t repay me. I would celebrate the love of God with them and let them know that the poor will not always be forgotten.

    I would also invite the leaders of the world to attend and share the same love with them and let them see firsthand what it means to walk with Christ and to truly love others when there is nothing they can do for you.

    I would also ask the guests to welcome my Beloved King Jesus as the guest of Honor. Surely they would all open their hearts to receive His perfect love and be able to dine with Him.

  • Hosting a Warrior Fellowship Group every Thursday for the past year and a half has given me the opportunity to meet some truly amazing and inspiring individuals. I thought I was just going to be sharing a weekly bible study with people that would come and go, but instead I found the greatest friendships and the most wonderful adventures that created blessings for more people than I will ever know.

    This bunch of “nobody’s” to the world are the most beautiful, wise, giving and compassionate individuals that I now consider my family.

    I would love to share all of the testimonies that I have from this group, but they are far too many to put in a blog post. Just this past week two of the members of the group went with me to Puerto Penasco, Mexico where we saw God heal countless people, as we went to the streets to pray and feed the people each day.

    We met a dad who was washing car windows to try and make enough to buy formula for his daughter who hadn’t eaten in two days. We found individuals digging through trash cans to find anything they could eat. We met men who were out of work with children to feed. We met several men who lost their wives and were raising families with a few dollars a day washing windows. We met people who had been deported and had no one and nothing to survive, but all of them were given what they needed because God has good plans for each one of their lives, so He sent us to help them.

    We saw many tears and many transformations as well as miracles of healings from Cancer to deliverance from rejection and hopelessness.

    God is so good and there is nothing more beautiful than being able to share His heart with those who need to know they are not forgotten!

    Psalm 9 ESV

    “I Will Recount Your Wonderful Deeds” To the choirmaster: according to Muth-labben.b A Psalm of David.

    1I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart;
    I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.
    2I will be glad and exult in you;
    I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

    3When my enemies turn back,
    they stumble and perish beforec your presence.
    4For you have maintained my just cause;
    you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.

    5You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;
    you have blotted out their name forever and ever.
    6The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;
    their cities you rooted out;
    the very memory of them has perished.

    7But the LORD sits enthroned forever;
    he has established his throne for justice,
    8and he judges the world with righteousness;
    he judges the peoples with uprightness.

    9The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
    a stronghold in times of trouble.
    10And those who know your name put their trust in you,
    for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.

    11Sing praises to the LORD, who sits enthroned in Zion!
    Tell among the peoples his deeds!
    12For he who avenges blood is mindful of them;
    he does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

    13Be gracious to me, O LORD!
    See my affliction from those who hate me,
    O you who lift me up from the gates of death,
    14that I may recount all your praises,
    that in the gates of the daughter of Zion
    I may rejoice in your salvation.

    15The nations have sunk in the pit that they made;
    in the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.
    16The LORD has made himself known; he has executed judgment;
    the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion.d Selah

    17The wicked shall return to Sheol,
    all the nations that forget God.

    18For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
    and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.

    19Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail;
    let the nations be judged before you!
    20Put them in fear, O LORD!
    Let the nations know that they are but men! Selah

  • What is a pure heart? One that seeks the good of others as a greater importance than what they can get or have. One that is willing to give up anything or go anywhere if someone is in need. One that doesn’t look at the wrongs of others or self, but only sees the good and hopes for the best for all. One who is willing to leave the pleasures of this world in order to live a life of great purpose and value for the greater good.
    Sara O’Meara and Yvonne Fedderson are the Founders of Childhelp. They have given 65 years of their lives to help prevent and provide healing and support to abused children. Their hearts are pure and their motives are always to help others find hope and healing. They lives should be the standard for which we all aspire to become. In addition to their work of helping more than 12 million children, they also have a healing service at their Chapel once a month where people receive physical and spiritual healing. The Holy Spirit is so powerful and flowing in that little chapel that every person who attends can receive healing.
    The same is true for the children in their care.
    When we all learn to love like this, we will see a world where evil can no longer exist.

    It might not be seen by you the moment you pray, but you will one day see how much those prayers mattered to every person or circumstance that you prayed.

    I have too many stories of God’s divine intervention that resulted from my willingness to pray. Prayer is a selfless act of obedience to God’s word, and there is nothing that God asks us to do without great value.

    Be one who prays without ceasing and you will see how much your life is changed by praying for others, and how close you become to God.

  • What’s your favorite thing about yourself?

    That Jesus is in me as well as the Father and Holy Spirit and I am never alone and have no need to ever fear again.

    Before I was Born Again and filled with new life, hope and peace, I was terribly insecure and fearful of people and life. I would spend my days obsessing about issues that I couldn’t solve or even make the slightest difference for the outcomes.

    When I learned about the issue of child abuse and began doing all that I could to help stop such evil in my state, I watched as the foster care system nearly collapsed because of the massive increase in children being harmed in our state. The numbers increased by 44% in the two years that I spent all my time and effort to see improvements for these things. Things seemed hopeless until I decided to seek the highest possible source for help.

    I began to pray to God for help and everything began to change. He told me to pray bigger because He was wanting to save more than one kid a day like I prayed at first.

    I was ecstatic and prayed night and day for five years straight asking for everything I could think of to see lives better and children safe.

    I saw amazing miracles and lives being transformed daily. God is so good! The Lord became my best friend and my greatest delight and joy. Every moment was spent focused on Him and learning what He wanted to do and doing all that He put in my heart to do.

    There is nothing better than experiencing a daily walk with God and hearing His voice and knowing His heart. I could have missed the greatest gift of this life if I would have kept on trying to do things in my own strength and with my own mind and abilities, but when I realized that no one else had the solution or answers on how to help with the darkest issues, I finally gave up my striving and laid it all down at the feet of the Lord.

    I finally found the truth and the freedom of knowing that I didn’t have to solve every problem or make every life better, but I could pray and release it all to God in exchange for His peace and joy. What a better way to do life. Trusting in the Lord with ALL of my heart! Fear left and I had freedom to live a life of love and purpose that would have an eternal impact and nothing was ever going to be lost or wasted again.

  • Jesus said that eternal life was experiential knowledge of God.

    A relationship with the Creator of Life is available for all who seek to know Him.

    He wants to be your everything as you turn your heart to Him and believe what He has said and done.

    We will never be good enough to deserve the lavish favor and love He bestows on us, nor should we wear ourselves out trying to please religious people. Our God is alive and moving powerfully through the lives of every born again believer.

    Now is the time to praise and worship Him with awe and wonder for all He has done.

    We are free to come into His presence because of the blood of Jesus and nothing we did. He has made a pathway for all people to be forgiven no matter how big or awful the sin, and it is by believing on Jesus and accepting all that He did for us to be reconciled into God’s family.

    We are now joint heirs with Christ if we accept Jesus and Believe and confess our faith in Him. He finished it all for us. We can walk right into a blessed life that has purpose and eternal value to change history with God as our partner.

    If you think the Good News (Gospel) is anything but Good, you have believed a lie. We are so blessed to live at this time and to be given such great opportunity to shine in the Lord. His presence and peace surrounds and fills His people who trust in Him.

    Open your heart and believe all that He says. You will not be disappointed. These three remain; Hope, Faith and Love and the greatest of these is Love.

    “And God is able to make all grace [every favor and earthly blessing] come in abundance to you, so that you may always [under all circumstances, regardless of the need] have complete sufficiency in everything [being completely self-sufficient in Him], and have an abundance for every good work and act of charity. As it is written and forever remains written, “He [the benevolent and generous person] scattered abroad, he gave to the poor, His righteousness endures forever!” [Ps 112:9] Now He who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your seed for sowing [that is, your resources] and increase the harvest of your righteousness [which shows itself in active goodness, kindness, and love]. [Is 55:10; Hos 10:12] You will be enriched in every way so that you may be generous, and this [generosity, administered] through us is producing thanksgiving to God [from those who benefit]. For the ministry of this service (offering) is not only supplying the needs of the saints (God’s people), but is also overflowing through many expressions of thanksgiving to God.”

  • Faithful and Merciful

    Our God is good and nothing is more delightful than Jesus, The Father and the Holy Spirit! What joy and bliss comes from living in all that Christ won and paid for us to have.

    With great confidence in the Lord, nations are awakening in the blink of an eye and what once seemed like a far off fantasy or dream has become the daily portion for all of God’s children who honor and serve Christ with grateful hearts. There is no confusion or condemnation for those who live united to the Lord Jesus, because His blood washes away our guilt and gives us peace that the world will never find outside of Jesus our Savior.

    Our team getting ready to pray for John after bringing him food and water in Tucson.

    The Lord put together a team of sons and daughters who are faithful to the call on our lives, and we have the best adventures together every week. From Mexico to Tucson, Flagstaff, Phoenix, California, North Carolina and more. This is what life is all about. Living free for Jesus!

    Our team praying with our waitress in Tucson, AZ.

    We pray for all people and only speak words of Truth. We bless and do not curse or pass judgement on others, because we are here to shine out the love of God and not participate in the negativity or slandering of others.

    The Truth is that Love is the only thing that can destroy evil completely so hatred will only perpetuate more darkness. Division and finger pointing is the opposite of love.

    Adrian enjoying his ice cream after we prayed for him in Puerto Peñasco Mexico.

    Caring for the forgotten, and seeking out the lost and afflicted makes for an amazing life and when you get to have a team of like minded people who love doing it with you, there is nothing more satisfying.

    If you want to live for Christ, Just open your heart and ask the Lord Jesus to fill it with His love. Escape the corruption of the world by living in a higher realm where there is no envy, strife, malice or shame! No evil is found where Love is the foundation and peace rules over everything.

  • So when God told me in 2015, that it was time. I didn’t fully understand what that meant, but I went through every open door and wherever the Holy Spirit would lead me.
    I laid down my life and went into the darkest places walking in Christ Jesus and without fear. I had nothing to brag about, because I was nothing before that, but when I let God take over, everything changed and nothing was about me anymore. I died and my life was hidden in God. I went to help the kids suffering in foster care by volunteering not only my time, but I gave all of my belongings and resources and went into debt to help them set up a new way for God to come through and help.
    They tried to keep me out of the building which was a bit rough at first but I kept going and kept loving and blessing them all.
    I stayed in spite of all the hatred and accusations and belittling and even the abusing and taking advantage of me. I was perfectly content to do anything that God wanted of me, because it wasn’t about me or my reputation.


    I laid down my life in order to bring peace and healing to a huge piece of our community that needed to know what it looks like to do better and be better, because they were finally able to feel valued and so they could thrive in the places that they were and realize that the work wasn’t about all the negative stuff surrounding it, but about the hearts of the people working together for a bigger or greater purpose. The children needed love and they needed hope and faith in something that was bigger than anything man could do to destroy. Love was able to heal and bring people together to see from a higher viewpoint that makes it so much easier to see and understand, because one person was dedicated to praying all of those things through while walking alongside the people and showing them how God really is.
    A merciful, kind, lover who is generous and genuine. Who doesn’t walk away when things get tough or people get ugly. But he brings peace and helps encourage and offer truth for lasting results.
    When people can’t figure out what to do with you, because you refuse to give up on them, they suddenly don’t want to act so slanderous and cruel. They don’t want to do things poorly or keep finger pointing and accusing others, but they want to keep peace and respect others and offer themselves to help where there is a need. It is about Christ in us. And those people didn’t act like Christians and I assumed none were, but I later saw that all of them at one time or another had made Jesus Lord, but they never knew who he was. So I got to show them through my life which I had fully surrendered to Christ for whatever he wanted to use it for.
    I would have worked in a laundry mat if that meant people would be rescued and lives saved. It doesn’t matter where we are. A prison cell for Paul did more than any another apostle ever in history, so anyway. James was the book that helped me fully grasp the reality of what is good and right and what is of no value and a waste of time. Good works wont save a person, but good works done in faith from a pure heart of love with no ulterior motives or selfish intentions will produce a harvest of righteousness one day.

    James 3

    “My dear brothers and sisters, don’t be so eager to become a teacher in the church since you know that we who teach are held to a higher standard of judgment. We all fail in many areas, but especially with our words. Yet if we’re able to bridle the words we say we are powerful enough to control ourselves in every way, and that means our character is mature and fully developed. Horses have bits and bridles in their mouths so that we can control and guide their large body. And the same with mighty ships, though they are massive and driven by fierce winds, yet they are steered by a tiny rudder at the direction of the person at the helm. And so the tongue is a small part of the body yet it carries great power! Just think of how a small flame can set a huge forest ablaze. And the tongue is a fire! It can be compared to the sum total of wickedness and is the most dangerous part of our human body. It corrupts the entire body and is a hellish flame! It releases a fire that can burn throughout the course of human existence. For every wild animal on earth including birds, creeping reptiles, and creatures of the sea and land have all been overpowered and tamed by humans, but the tongue is not able to be tamed. It’s a fickle, unrestrained evil that spews out words full of toxic poison! We use our tongue to praise God our Father and then turn around and curse a person who was made in his very image! Out of the same mouth we pour out words of praise one minute and curses the next. My brothers and sisters, this should never be! Would you look for olives hanging on a fig tree or go to pick figs from a grapevine? Is it possible that fresh and bitter water can flow out of the same spring? So neither can a bitter spring produce fresh water. If you consider yourself to be wise and one who understands the ways of God, advertise it with a beautiful, fruitful life guided by wisdom’s gentleness. Never brag or boast about what you’ve done and you’ll prove that you’re truly wise. But if there is bitter jealousy or competition hiding in your heart, then don’t deny it and try to compensate for it by boasting and being phony. For that has nothing to do with God’s heavenly wisdom but can best be described as the wisdom of this world, both selfish and devilish. So wherever jealousy and selfishness are uncovered, you will also find many troubles and every kind of meanness. But the wisdom from above is always pure, filled with peace, considerate and teachable. It is filled with love and never displays prejudice or hypocrisy in any form and it always bears the beautiful harvest of righteousness! Good seeds of wisdom’s fruit will be planted with peaceful acts by those who cherish making peace.”
    ‭‭James (Jacob)‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬-‭1

  • Salvation

    Today is the day of celebration for all those who receive the truth of God’s Word for Salvation.
    Even if not all of the world has understood the magnitude of the amazing gift of God’s salvation that is available for ALL people to accept and be made alive forever in Christ, it doesn’t diminish the truth of what God has done.
    God fulfilled every promise with Jesus, and there is nothing that is left undone now. Everyone and everything has been made through Christ and is alive because of him and no other reason.
    If the Lord had no point in making Himself the sacrificial offering for all sins, than how sad would the world be? If Love hadn’t shown us what it means to truly love and give all in order to have us with Him forever, than we might be able to live for ourselves and never consider God, but because He showed up in the most humbled and lowly form in order to give all of us every thing that we would never have been able to attain in a fallen world, wow!!!! We can surely find a way to forgive those who have hurt us or caused us to suffer. We can surely help someone who is struggling and homeless or addicted to drugs and too afraid to face another day alone and feeling defeated. We can surely hear about another people and nation that is suffering and offer our support with prayers, finances and goods.
    What if we never knew that God was good, and we only believed that He was angry and cruel and the one causing all of the bad in the world? We would not only be deceived and believing backwards, but we would miss out on the most amazing and beautiful life that God has planned for each and every one of us!
    The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool”
    King David spoke those words while speaking in the Holy Spirit and prophesying about Jesus and the Father.
    Do you know that those words are what God is saying to each of us today? He seated us in Christ far above all rule power and authority of demonic forces, so that we can live free from the deception and receive all that is good and right from God.
    Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father of light, so if there are terrible things happening in a person’s life, they shouldn’t blame God, but they should be running to Him for help and protection, because there are demonic forces of evil that will work to destroy all that is good and the only way to be safe and have refuge from that is to trust in the Lord and allow Him to be your everything you need each day!
    He is so good! His kindness and gentleness are what make a person truly great. But when we are taught that God is the reason that people are suffering terrible afflictions or dying horrific deaths, we are allowing lies to pollute our hearts and we become blind to the Truth.
    Life is a journey of discovery and revelation, but when we are focused on all the wrong things, we will only discover the worst rather than having a higher perspective that comes from renewing one’s mind in the word of God. People take things from the news and don’t think to question what is really going on or what is really causing those negative reports to grow and become “common”.
    If we are healed by the stripes of Jesus, we can not be sick? True or are there hidden clauses that are written elsewhere to nullify one scripture from another?
    No, it is not possible for God’s Word to contradict itself. If it was established by two or more witnesses, that would make it true? We are God’s witnesses and we should be faithful to always share the revelation we receive from the Lord so that others might hear the truth and be saved.
    Let God be true and every man a liar! Romans 3:4

    Peace, joy and acceleration of the goodness of God is upon us now!

  • www.bible.com/en/videos/25623

    How can we know what is absolute truth and what is falsehood?

    Read the Scriptures and believe that Jesus is the Truth and He is the Word of God manifest in the flesh of a man. He came into the world that was created by Him, yet the world didn’t recognize Him. He went to His own people and they rejected Him.

    He was accused by the leaders of that day as being a fake yet He performed miracles and did wonderful things in their presence again and again. Even the men who came to take him away saw him heal and restore a man’s ear after it was cut off right in front of them. No one prayed to ask the Father if this truly was His Son the Messiah, but they determined in their hearts to take him out and so he was crucified and went to hell for three days for doing no wrong.

    As He came out of hell with His mouth filled with praises to the Father, we walked out with him into a new resurrected life!

    For if we die and suffer with him, we also will live with him.

  • Open doors are for open hearts to Jesus!

    Come up higher in the love of God. Leave behind all negativity and thoughts of darkness and be fixed on Christ Jesus so that you will experience the salvation of God in its fullness.

    There is so much more!!!

  • God shines upon the Israel of His delight and that is the one who believes and trusts in His Word and obeys Him. Who is it that hears from God in the land of Israel today? Who hears His voice and warns the nation of impending doom? Does anyone hear his voice there? Did they know they were about to he ambushed in Oct 2023? On the last feast day of celebration when they were expecting good and received horrific violence and terror.

    This is a cry to the people to seek the Truth of God’s Word and discover a whole new pathway that had once been hidden from their eyes and minds as a reality. It is time to read and understand the Words of the Book with a pure heart that seeks to know the living God and be in close covenant relationship with Him for protection and peace to come.

    “God, keep us near your mercy-fountain and bless us! And when you look down on us, may your face beam with joy! Pause in his presence Send us out all over the world so that everyone everywhere will discover your ways and know who you are and see your power to save. Let all the nations burst forth with praise; let everyone everywhere love and enjoy you! Then how glad the nations will be when you are their King. They will sing, they will shout, for you give true justice to the people. Yes! You, Lord, are the shepherd of the nations! Pause in his presence No wonder the peoples praise you! Let all the people praise you more! The harvest of the earth is here! God, the very God we worship, keeps us satisfied at his banquet of blessings. And the blessings keep coming! All the ends of the earth will give him the honor he deserves and be in awe of him!”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭67‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭TPT

    ‬‬bible.com/bible/1849/psa.67.1-7.TPT

    How great is our God and how wonderful are His words of truth that have all been fulfilled when He came into the world in the form of a humbled servant man who did no wrong but was crucified by His own people who refused to know him or believe him.

    If God knew how it would all work out and who would all benefit or suffer, what should be our most important focus in this life? Shouldn’t it be to know and understand who He is? To have a close and meaningful relationship with Him?

    Seek the Lord while He may be found. If you hear His voice, do not harden your heart!

    Seek and you will find, ask and he will receive answers, knock and the door will open. Jesus is the door and the only way inside to God’s presence and peace.

  • I am not sure if people even realize how amazing and generous some people really are, but as a founder of a nonprofit and one who has given my life to help causes for the last fifteen years, I am always blessed to see what people do to help bless those in need.

    The American Legion Post 91 in Chandler, Arizona goes above and beyond to support charities each year, but when they were asked to stretch their giving this year to help us supply for a last minute list of children that were in the midst of crisis from foster care and domestic violence impacted families, they didn’t hesitate to rally together and find a way to give out an additional $3000 that was over their budget. They had already purchased over $20,000 in toys for another organization when they learned that we were struggling to find a way to provide for the growing number of kids and families contacting us for help each day.

    We were praying and believing God would find a way to make it a blessed Christmas for all of the children and families in our state and as we would drop off a truck full of toys everyday, God would send us the funds or the toys to help the next group that would come along. We were able to provide not just one gift for each kid, but three or more gifts for every teen and child on our list.

    We want to publicly acknowledge those who supported us so that we could bless so many kids this past Christmas.

    With so many generous hearts this Holiday season, God was truly honored and expressed through all of these wonderful lives that always find joy in giving just like Jesus our Celebrated and worthy Lord! Thank you for sharing the love!

    We can’t share the photos of most of the children or I would share their smiling faces. Please pray for the children in our foster care system always because they need covered

  • Jesus told his disciples that they needed to wait for the Holy Spirit that would be sent after he was taken up to Heaven, because a person without the baptism of fire will not be doing the works that Jesus did and greater.

    The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the only way to live a supernatural life that is totally dependent on God and not ones own strength and skills. The people who are filled and walking in the power of the Holy Spirit are not needing to spend years in training by the church, because they immediately become the Church that speaks and acts and does what the Lord Jesus did!

    When people insist that they have to do years of training before doing anything for God, they are wrong. Everyday is a day to honor and serve God. Believe what is written in the scriptures and act on it! Pray because you have the fire of God and the mind of Christ! Declare and decree blessings and revoke all evil over regions and cities where you go. Be flowing in the spirit to know what you are supposed to do at any moment. The Holy Spirit doesn’t lock us down and keep us from sharing the good news. He empowers and teaches us all that we need to know and leads us into all truth.

    The Holy Spirit gives gifts to each as He decides. We don’t choose our calling and gifts, but we receive them and learn how to use them, and then we begin to live them out daily and seek to keep growing and becoming more and more like Jesus by believing and acting on the Word of God.

    Fear must go, shame must go, immature thinking and speaking must be transformed by the renewing of the mind with the cleansing of the Word of God.

  • When everyone and everything falls away, God is the only thing that will never leave. He promised to love and carry me all my days and bring me back to where I belong after my time on earth is done. I didn’t understand how great this Love of a Heavenly Father truly is until I realized how bad I was and saw that it was only by His love that I could ever be saved from the emptiness of the world.

    Many people are lost and they don’t realize that there is a God who already made provision for all people to be saved and reconciled back to him through Jesus the Christ. When we call on the name of Jesus, we are immediately offered the opportunity to become a son or daughter of the living God. It is written that all who call on His name will be saved, but what if they never knew Jesus was their only hope and the only way to God?

    I didn’t know that Jesus was everything that I needed and the solution for every crisis and issue in the world, but I called out to God when I was desperately wanting to help victims of child abuse, and every government leader and organization had been unable to do enough. God answered my prayer that night and the thousands more that followed.

    He showed up and did what no one else could do. He brought unity and solutions to the people and healing to the children and families in need thar I prayed to him to help. He didn’t just answer those prayers but also the ones that I prayed about my friends and family and every other issue that I could think of that needed correction.

    He was quick to respond and eager to help and soon I took to the streets to help the homeless and the drug addicts and broken lives everywhere each day. He not only answered prayers, but I soon realized that He was directing my steps to find the people crying out for help each day.

    I share this to help people understand that Jesus is the solution and the One that cares more than anyone about each and every life. He longs for all people to seek His help and let Him bring them into the light of a new day.

    If a Christian truly knows who they are and what they have available to them, they will show it by giving and helping and always offering themselves to pray and be there for those in need. God is a Father that provides, protects and brings peace and hope to all of His children. He doesn’t cause any of the evil in the world, but He is always ready to flip the bad into something good when we take it to Him. I long for all people to honor God and praise Jesus for what He has done for each and every one of us. Be grateful and don’t put yourself or others down, but lift them up in prayer and help all those who are in need and then you will represent your Father. All those who do evil and harm others are under the lordship of satan who is known as the god of this fallen world. There is only one way out of thar realm and it is to call on Jesus and believe in him and what He did for us to be reconciled back to God forever. Let love be genuine and abhor what is evil. The word is live spelled backwards. If you add a d on it, you spell devil and that is lived backwards! Think about what that means.

    Backwards living produces death and destruction. Turn around and call on Jesus to be saved! It is stupid to believe anything but what God has said is true.

  • One day the Lord said to me in a very beautiful and clear voice, “I have loved you with an everlasting love”. As He said that, I stopped to think about what that meant, because it really shocked me for some reason to hear those words. I immediately realized that meant He would never stop loving me, and that I was accepted and there was nothing that I could do to make him love me more or less, because His love for me was everlasting.
    Suddenly all the years of worrying about being good enough or about not being safe or what might happen if this or that should take place, those things were all washed away from my thoughts, and I was free to believe in only good things about myself and God. I didn’t have to live in fear about the future or worry about the past, because I knew that I was loved with an everlasting love by the Creator of all that is good and right.
    He knew me from before I was born He went on to say, and that He named me and had a special purpose for my life. I literally felt Him smiling as He was speaking those words to me. As baffled as I was to hear that I actually had a purpose for being here that was not what I thought, but a purpose that the Lord had created and sent me here to do was not only beyond what I could fully grasp in that moment, but one that no one else could believe if I told them either, so I kept it to myself.
    I began to live like I never knew I could after that. I wasn’t afraid of anyone or anything anymore, because I knew who I was, and the enemy knew that I knew that too, so the Lord crushed Satan under my feet and I was no longer a slave to fear or doubt and unbelief. The Lord told me that He was able to speak to me that day, because I turned and looked when I saw a strange spiral of vapor swirling in front me. I can only assume that the Lord tries to speak to many people by getting their attention through things like a burning bush, a whirlwind, a supernatural thing, so don’t just ignore what you don’t understand. Stop and look to see what the Lord wants to speak to you.
    I am sharing that today, because there are so many people that need to know that God is not only real, but He is really in love with them and is trying to get their attention everyday, but they haven’t allowed Him to be in their lives because they haven’t believed that they are fully loved and accepted by Him. Forgiveness and mercy are for all who are willing to receive it. It’s not just for the one who sits in every church service. It is for every sinner and every saint to be free and live above the world’s corruption and negativity.
    To live a life without fear and to love like you truly know what love is because you have experienced God’s Love first!
    Once you know that kinda love, nothing will ever compare to the satisfaction and joy that comes through and makes all things new in you and everywhere you share that same Truth with others.
    Love is not an emotion, it’s a person. It is God and that is why Love is the highest and best that we can ever hope for and have in us and flowing from us. Love makes everyone and everything bearable in this world.
    Even the people that once seemed so awful, suddenly appear so different because you understand that they are only that way because they have never experienced that perfect love to be made right yet, so you can pray for everyone with an eagerness to see them all awakened and blessed. Praying becomes a lifestyle and the only solution that you need anymore for all the issues that the world throws at you or the people around you.
    Jesus in us is the hope of glory that we should all be connected to and living our lives as yielded vessels for his power and manifested presence to be seen by a hurting and lost world in need of hope and healing.
    So I would like to say to all the Believers in the world right now, fear nothing, because God is with you and the light is needed more than ever that we carry.

    One more thing, I was also made aware of how the devil and the demonic realm work to create so much evil, and if you have felt rejected, have suffered abuse, been stolen from, lied to, overlooked, or made to seem like you are crazy or always wrong, that is all a bunch of deception and all negativity is demonic. Avoid listening to gossip and any negative comments, news or stories because they are only there to cause fear, doubt and unbelief.
    Lock out all of it and open up the Word of God and take a hold of what is good and right by believing ALL that Jesus spoke and never doubt that God is good and it is always His will that you and everyone are healed and have peace as well as a prosperous life of abundance in Christ!
    If you think low thoughts about yourself and others, remember that God’s thoughts are higher and He only sees the good and not the evil, so ask Him to lift you out of that pit so you can see and believe for good again with Him.
    Love endures all things, hopes all things and believes all things. Love never ends and it will never fail to rejoice with the truth. Jesus is the Truth, so receive Him as your Lord and Savior and live as a joyful, beloved child of God!!
    Freedom is not accomplished by war and fighting. Freedom comes from knowing the Truth!! Thank you for taking the time to read this today and may it give you hope to believe again in ONLY what is good for yourself and others!

  • These are the prayers of many in Psalm 119. They will help you pray for more of what you need in the way of wisdom and understanding God’s ways. The passion translation is great because it uses the heart of the Father as the perspective and the fulfillment of the promise of salvation is of course finished with Jesus. He is our destiny and our fullness of the Word of God in us! Open up that rich treasury and begin to discover the power and glory that awaits all who let go of this world in order to gain eternal wealth of abundant life.

    Love is the solution for everything and if that doesn’t make sense, understand that God is Love and He has done everything good to help us see and escape the twisted lies and schemes of a fallen world that fell because of a rebellious angel known as satan who stole man’s dominion and authority through trickery.

    “You’re only truly happy when you walk in total integrity, walking in the light of God’s Word.

    What joy overwhelms everyone who keeps the ways of God, those who seek him as their heart’s passion! They’ll never do what’s wrong but will always choose the paths of the Lord.

    God has prescribed the right way to live: obeying his laws with all our hearts. How I long for my life to bring you glory as I follow each and every one of your holy precepts! Then I’ll never be ashamed, for I take strength from all your commandments. I will give my thanks to you from a heart of love and truth. And every time I learn more of your righteous judgments, I will be faithful to all that your Word reveals— so don’t ever give up on me!

    How can a young man stay pure? Only by living in the Word of God and walking in its truth.

    I have longed for you with the passion of my heart; don’t let me stray from your directions! I consider your Word to be my greatest treasure, and I treasure it in my heart to keep me from committing sin’s treason against you. My wonderful God, you are to be praised above all; teach me the power of your decrees!

    I speak continually of your laws as I recite out loud your counsel to me. I find more joy in following what you tell me to do than in chasing after all the wealth of the world.

    I set my heart on your precepts and pay close attention to all your ways. My delight is found in all your laws, and I won’t forget to walk in your words.

    Let me, your servant, walk in abundance of life that I may always live to obey your truth. Open my eyes to see the miracle-wonders hidden in Scripture. My life on earth is so brief, so tutor me in the ways of your wisdom. I am continually consumed by these irresistible longings, these cravings to obey your every commandment! Your displeasure rests with those who are arrogant, who think they know everything; you rebuke the rebellious who refuse your laws. Don’t let them mock and scorn me for obeying you. For even if the princes and my leaders choose to criticize me, I will continue to serve you and walk in your plans for my life. Your commandments are my counselors; your Word is my light and delight! Lord,

    I’m fading away. I’m discouraged and lying in the dust; revive me by your word, just like you promised you would. I’ve poured out my life before you, and you’ve always been there for me.

    So now I ask: teach me more of your holy decrees. Open up my understanding to the ways of your wisdom, and I will meditate deeply on your splendor and your wonders.

    My life’s strength melts away with grief and sadness; come strengthen me and encourage me with your words.

    Keep me far away from what is false; give me grace to stay true to your laws.

    I’ve chosen to obey your truth and walk in the splendor-light of all that you teach me.

    Lord, don’t allow me to make a mess of my life, for I cling to your commands and follow them as closely as I can.

    I will run after you with delight in my heart, for you will make me obedient to your instructions.

    Give me revelation about the meaning of your ways so I can enjoy the reward of following them fully. Give me an understanding heart so that I can passionately know and obey your truth.

    Guide me into the paths that please you, for I take delight in all that you say.

    Cause my heart to bow before your words of wisdom and not to the wealth of this world.

    Help me turn my eyes away from illusions so that I pursue only that which is true; drench my soul with life as I walk in your paths.

    Reassure me of your promises, for I am your beloved, your servant who bows before you. Defend me from the criticism I face for keeping your beautiful words.

    See how I long with cravings for more of your ways? Let your righteousness revive my spirit!

    May your tender love overwhelm me, O Lord, for you are my Savior and you keep your promises.

    I’ll always have an answer for those who mock me because I trust in your word.

    May I never forget your truth, for I rely upon your precepts.

    I will observe your laws every moment of the day and will never forget the words you say. I will walk with you in complete freedom, for I seek to follow your every command.

    When I stand before kings, I will tell them the truth and will never be ashamed. My passion and delight is in your word, for I love what you say to me! I long for more revelation of your truth, for I love the light of your word as I meditate on your decrees.

    Lord, never forget the promises you’ve made to me, for they are my hope and confidence. In all of my affliction I find great comfort in your promises, for they have kept me alive!

    No matter how bitterly the proud mockers speak against me, I refuse to budge from your precepts.

    Your revelation-light is eternal; I’m encouraged every time I think about your truth!

    Whenever I see the wicked breaking your laws, I feel horrible.

    As I journey through life, I put all your statutes to music; they become the theme of my joyous songs.

    Throughout the night I think of you, dear God;

    I treasure your every word to me.

    All this joy is mine as I follow your ways!

    You are my satisfaction, Lord, and all that I need, so I’m determined to do everything you say.

    With all my heart I seek your favor; pour out your grace on me as you promised!

    When I realize that I’m going astray, I turn back to obey your instructions.

    I give my all to follow your revelation-light; I will not delay to obey. Even when temptations encircle me with evil, I won’t forget for a moment to follow your commands.

    In the middle of the night I awake to give thanks to you because of all your revelation-light—so right and true!

    Anyone who loves you and bows in obedience to your words will be my friend.

    Give me more revelation of your ways, for I see your love and tender care everywhere. Your extravagant kindness to me makes me want to follow your words even more!

    Teach me how to make good decisions, and give me revelation-light, for I believe in your commands.

    Before I was humbled I used to always wander astray, but now I see the wisdom of your words. Everything you do is beautiful, flowing from your goodness; teach me the power of your wonderful words!

    Proud boasters make up lies about me because I am passionate to follow all that you say. Their hearts are dull and void of feelings, but I find my true treasure in your truth. The punishment you brought me through was the best thing that could have happened to me, for it taught me your ways.

    The words you speak to me are worth more than all the riches and wealth in the whole world! Your very hands have held me and made me who I am; give me more revelation-light so I may learn to please you more.

    May all your devoted lovers see how you treat me and be glad, for your words are entwined with my heart. Lord, I know that your judgments are always right. Even when it’s me you judge, you’re still faithful and true. Send your kind mercy-kiss to comfort me, your servant, just like you promised you would. Love me tenderly so I can go on, for I delight in your life-giving truth. Shame upon the proud liars! See how they oppress me, all because of my passion for your precepts!

    *May all your devoted lovers follow me as I follow the path of your instruction. Make me passionate and wholehearted to fulfill your every wish, so that I’ll never have to be ashamed of myself. I’m lovesick with yearnings for more of your salvation, for my heart is entwined with your Word. I’m consumed with longings for your promises, so I ask, “When will they all come true?” My soul feels dry and shriveled, useless and forgotten, but I will never forget your living truth. How much longer must I wait until you punish my persecutors? For I am your loving servant. Arrogant men who hate your truth and never obey your laws have laid a trap for my life. They don’t know that everything you say is true, so they harass me with their lies. Help me, Lord! They’ve nearly destroyed my life, but I refuse to yield; I still live according to your Word. Revive me with your tender love and spare my life by your kindness, and I will continue to obey you.

    Standing firm in the heavens and fastened to eternity is the Word of God. Your faithfulness flows from one generation to the next; all that you created sits firmly in place to testify of you. By your decree everything stands at attention, for all that you have made serves you.

    Because your words are my deepest delight, I didn’t give up when all else was lost. I can never forget the profound revelations you’ve taught me, for they have kept me alive more than once. Lord, I’m all yours, and you are my Savior; I have sought to live my life pleasing to you. Even though evil men wait in ambush to kill me, I will set my heart before you to understand more of your ways.

    *I’ve learned that there is nothing perfect in this imperfect world except your words, for they bring such fantastic freedom into my life!

    O how I love and treasure your law; throughout the day I fill my heart with its light! By considering your commands I have an edge over my enemies, for I take seriously everything you say. You have given me more understanding than those who teach me, for I’ve absorbed your eye-opening revelation. You have graced me with more insight than the old sages because I have not failed to walk in the light of your ways. I refused to bend my morals when temptation was before me so that I could become obedient to your Word. I refuse to turn away from difficult truths, for you yourself have taught me to love your words.

    *How sweet are your living promises to me; sweeter than honey is your revelation-light. For your truth is the source of my understanding, not the falsehoods of those who don’t know you, which I despise.

    Truth’s shining light guides me in my choices and decisions; the revelation of your Word makes my pathway clear. To live my life by your righteous rules has been my holy and lifelong commitment.

    I’m bruised and broken, overwhelmed by it all; breathe life into me again by your living word. Even though my life hangs in the balance, I’ll keep following what you’ve taught me, no matter what. The ungodly have done their best to throw me off track, but I’ll not deviate from what you’ve told me to do.

    *Everything you speak to me is like joyous treasure, filling my life with gladness. I have determined in my heart to obey whatever you say, fully and forever!

    I despise those who can’t keep commitments, for I passionately love your revelation-light!

    You’re my place of quiet retreat, and your wraparound presence becomes my shield as I wrap myself in your Word!

    Go away! Leave me, all you workers of wickedness, for you can’t stop me from following every command of my God.

    *Lord, strengthen my inner being by the promises of your Word so that I may live faithful and unashamed for you. Lift me up and I will be safe. Empower me to live every moment in the light of your ways.

    Lord, you reject those who reject your laws, for they fool no one but themselves! The wicked are thrown away, discarded and valueless. That’s why I will keep loving all of your laws! My body trembles in holy awe of you, leaving me speechless, for I’m frightened of your righteous judgments.

    Don’t leave me to the mercies of those who hate me, for I live to do what is just and fair. Let me hear your promise of blessing over my life, breaking me free from the proud oppressors.

    *As a lovesick lover, I yearn for more of your salvation and for your virtuous promises. Let me feel your tender love, for I am yours. Give me more understanding of your wonderful ways. I need more revelation from your Word to know more about you, for I’m in love with you!

    Lord, the time has come for you to break through, for evil men keep breaking your laws.

    Truly, your message of truth means more to me than a vault filled with the purest gold. Every word you speak, every truth revealed, is always right and beautiful to me, for I hate what is phony or false. Your marvelous words are living miracles; no wonder I long to obey everything you say.

    Break open your Word within me until revelation-light shines out! Those with open hearts are given insight into your plans. I open my mouth and inhale the Word of God because I crave the revelation of your commands.

    Turn your heart to me, Lord, and show me your grace like you do to every one of your godly lovers.

    Prepare before me a path filled with your promises, and don’t allow even one sin to have dominion over me.

    Rescue me from the oppression of ungodly men so that I can keep all your precepts.

    Smile on me, your loving servant.

    Instruct me in what is right in your eyes.

    When I witness the rebellious breaking your laws, it makes me weep uncontrollably! Lord, your judgments reveal your righteousness, and your verdicts are always fair. The motive behind your every word is pure, and your teachings are remarkably faithful and true.

    I’ve been consumed with a furious passion to do what’s right, all because of the way my enemies disrespect your laws.

    All your promises glow with fire; that’s why I’m a lover of your Word. Even though I’m considered insignificant and despised by the world, I’ll never abandon your ways. Your righteousness has no end; it is everlasting, and your rules are perfectly fair.

    Even though my troubles overwhelm me with anguish, I still delight and cherish every message you speak to me.

    Give me more revelation so that I can live for you, for nothing is more pure and eternal than your truth.

    Answer my passionate prayer, O Lord, and I’ll obey everything you say.

    Save me, God, and I’ll follow your every instruction.

    Before the day dawns, I’ll be crying out for help and wrapping your words into my life. Lord, listen to my heart’s cry, for I know your love is real for me; breathe life into me again by the revelation of your justice.

    Here they come—these lawless rebels are coming near, but they are all so far away from your laws.

    God, you are near me always, so close to me; every one of your commands reveals truth. I’ve known all along how true and unchanging is every word you speak, established forever!

    Look upon all my misery and come be my hero to rescue me, for I will never forget what you’ve revealed to me. Take my side and defend me in these sufferings; redeem me and revive me, just like you promised you would.

    The wicked are so far from salvation, for they could not care less about your message of truth.

    Your tender mercies are what I need, O God; give me back my life again through the revelation of your judgments. I have so many enemies who persecute me, yet I won’t swerve from following your ways.

    I grieve when I see how the faithless ones live, for they just walk away from your promises.

    Lord, see how much I truly love your instructions. So in your tender kindness, breathe life into me again. The sum total of all your words adds up to absolute truth, and every one of your righteous decrees is everlasting.

    The powerful elite have persecuted me without a cause, but my heart trembles in awe because of your miracle-words.

    Your promises are the source of my bubbling joy; the revelation of your Word thrills me like one who has discovered hidden treasure.

    I despise every lie and hate every falsehood, for I am passionate about keeping your precepts. I stop to praise you seven times a day, all because your ways are perfect!

    There is such a great peace and well-being that comes to the lovers of your Word, and they will never be offended.

    Lord, I’m longing for more of your salvation, for I want to do what pleases you.

    My love for your ways is indescribable; in my innermost being I want to follow them perfectly! I will keep your instructions and follow your counsel; all my ways are an open book before you.

    Lord, listen to my prayer. It’s like a sacrifice I bring to you; I must have more revelation of your Word! Take my words to heart when I ask you,

    Lord; rescue me, just like you promised!

    I offer you my joyous praise for all that you’ve taught me. Your wonderful words will become my song of worship, for everything you’ve commanded is perfect and true.

    Place your hands of strength and favor upon me, for I’ve made my choice to follow your ways.

    I wait for your deliverance, O Lord, for your words thrill me like nothing else!

    Invigorate my life so that I can praise you even more, and may your truth be my strength!

    I’ll never forget what you’ve taught me, Lord, but when I wander off and lose my way, come after me, for I am your beloved!”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭1‬-‭107‬, ‭109‬-‭147‬, ‭149‬-‭176‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • When I learned what God did for me to be reconciled back to Him, I was completely astonished and confused. If God’s love was so great that He was willing to provide a way for me to be free from all guilt and shame and live forever in His presence where there is fullness of joy, why didn’t I ever hear about this great love and freedom available? I was brand new and unstained by the church, so I was able to believe all that is written in the Bible without doubt. I read it, accepted it and lived it daily.

    I didn’t belong to a church because the Holy Spirit was my teacher and I was so busy living the Word of God daily, that I didn’t have time to get polluted with wrong doctrine or manmade religion. I was the only person that I know of who actually believed and trusted everything back then, but I did learn how the enemy blinds the unbelievers and how people can be hardened in their hearts when they suffer setbacks and many heartbreaks from people who don’t know what they are doing. I have now experienced both sides and I will never again allow lies to pollute my heart or mind from the Truth, because it is a miserable world when a person is deceived or darkened in their thinking.

    A person can accept God’s plan of salvation for all mankind which is to receive the Lord Jesus as your personal savior and redeemer. It is knowing and accepting that Jesus died in your place and went to hell for you that is the good news. And when God raised him from hell on the third day and seated him at his right hand in Heaven, we were raised with Him and are now to live from that seat above in Christ.

    Christ Jesus is now waiting for all of his enemies to be placed under his feet. Meaning that all authority in Heaven and on earth was given to Jesus and all judgment has been granted to him over the people.

    Jesus came to destroy the works of darkness and he took every sin onto himself when he was crucified in our place. Thereby putting to death all our sins forever so that those who believe in Jesus can no longer be condemned or punished for our misdeeds when we belong to Christ.

    This is not an excuse to do bad things and not have to pay for them, but it is the free gift of God for all who believe on Jesus to be made righteous through their union with Christ.

    All who call on the name of the Lord Jesus can now be saved and given a brand new life!

    When a person accepts and believes that Jesus died in their place and they are now free to come to the Father and receive mercy and help in their time of need, they are also given the Holy Spirit of God who makes this possible by uniting us with God’s spirit we are made into a brand new creation!

    This is not something that people can do on their own. It is a free gift from God for all who believe. The life that is led by the Holy Spirit is no longer dominated by the ways of the flesh. When a person knows they are loved and fully accepted in Christ by the Father, they no longer have the old selfish heart or calloused heart from the world of corruption but they receive a new heart that has God’s laws written on it. They are no longer eager to do wrong, but they are eager to do what is in God’s heart.

    This way is the way of love and peace which is the way of Righteousness. No longer fighting to survive in a corrupt world, a person can receive what is needed through their union with Jesus. They are able to receive instructions and ways to live as a citizen of Heaven where there is no evil.

    A life of praise and thanksgiving to our Heavenly Father is what is produced by the power of the Holy Spirit in us! It is a life where God Himself lavishes his perfect love on us and frees us from the old wicked thoughts that cause so much suffering in the world.

    Trusting in the Lord for every one of our needs to be met and for Him to establish us and give us a divine purpose that brings glory to His son Jesus and makes all of creation into one new man. That is the body of believers become the Body of Jesus and He is our head and Lord over everything in our lives.

    Jesus is able to free us from all the things that we formerly couldn’t be free of on our own. The bondage of religion and the corruption that is in the world through lust.

    God made for himself a holy people that he is able to live with and be involved in all of the things in our lives.

    From going to the market to raising our children, we no longer live in darkness or following after the vanity and futility of the world.

    This is a beautiful life that makes a person shine bright wherever they go, because God is with them. They are no longer living in fear or terror of what others are concerned with, because they know that God is their protection and provider. He brings them all into divine healing through the wounds that Jesus incurred on his body. By his stripes we are healed. The chastisement of Jesus brings us peace. Because Jesus became poor, we can now be rich in all things. We no longer have to be separated from the Father again, so we are brought near to God and have access to every spiritual blessing through Jesus.

    Does this sound like a terrible life? Or does it sound like good news?

    If anyone is not in Christ, he will be responsible for the penalty for all of his/her sins on judgment day. That means they will become that sin forever and live separated from God in outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. A place of eternal torment that no one has to ever endure if they chose to accept Jesus and make him their Lord.

    Jesus is the greatest treasure and most amazing blessing a person could ever receive. He will carry you through anything that happens in this world and instead of despair and dread a person in Christ has peace and hope.

    It doesn’t make sense to someone who is not born again by the Spirit, because they are not able to accept the things of God. They are in a fallen state that was caused by sin and they are without understanding and wisdom to guide them into what is truth and the reality for every born again believer.

    We are never alone and we have help always so we are eager to see all people rescued from that place of outer darkness and destruction.

    People make fun of Christians because they can’t believe that they can live so devoted to loving a God that the unbelievers can’t see or hear as real.

    Faith in Jesus and knowing that God is good always changes a person from the inside out.

    If you would like to experience a new life and become a part of a royal family that loves and protects you from the evils of this world, ask Jesus to forgive your sins and to live in your heart and be your Lord and Savior and He will come right into your open heart.

    If a person doesn’t believe, he won’t be able to receive Jesus as Lord. But putting your faith in what is good and is abundant life will remove the fear of death and take away the torment that unbelievers suffer apart from God.

  • Once I had a surprise visit from the Creator of life. He shared many things with me, and when I asked Him if anyone would believe me if I shared the encounter. His response was a bit sad. He said that I would be surprised to learn that most people who say they know Him have never known Him .

    He did say that there were some who would know it was the truth, because they know Him.

    With that comment I thought long and hard about what that really meant and why would people pretend to know God if they really didn’t know Him? It was more than just a few people that didn’t know Him. It was almost everyone in the mega churches at that time. It seemed that none of them had intimate relationships with the Lord and hearing His voice was completely unheard of for them. They didn’t know Him, because they didn’t seek Him with all of their hearts. They didn’t take the time to know Him. They were all busy with life and had no idea they were missing out on the best thing about life! Jesus is the treasure and delight for all who chose to believe and receive Him. He is the bliss of our salvation right here, right now! Nothing compares to His friendship and great love!

    I was so incredibly blessed to find the narrow path that leads to eternal life, but I was also shocked that I was given such an amazing experience and opportunity, because I was what the church would call unworthy or worldly.

    I loved the Lord and prayed night and day for help with the kids suffering abuse and neglect and all the broken and hurting people trapped in painful addictions and tormented by past traumatic events. I was so grateful that the Lord answered all of my prayers that I prayed for everyone and everything all the time! I had no other way to truly make things better for people other than praying for them and believing for better.

    I was experiencing so much love and companionship with the Lord that I assumed everyone in the churches probably had so much more than me, because they had been doing all the good church stuff and showing up for every service while I would rarely make it to a church service but I spent hours a day reading the Bible and just worshiping and enjoying the Lord. We would go out and help the people who were praying for help, and we would pray over the city and people a blessing and speak what God wanted to do which was always so good and healing for the people. The Lord was my best friend and my teacher who became my greatest joy and deepest love.

    I learned that He was serious about people not knowing Him when I was quickly identified as a crazy person who had a death wish, because I would go out at night and help people. They didn’t know what it meant to live fearless, but I did. I had no more fear of death or sickness or of people. I was free! Free to speak the Truth and free to live a life of abundance in everything. If anyone wants to know what that means, pray and ask the Lord to be your Lord and Savior and fill you with the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, people are dry and without power and will never experience the living God.

    Putting others down while considering yourself superior, spreading lies and rumors, spilling the blood of the innocent, plotting evil in your heart toward another, gloating over doing what’s plainly wrong, spouting lies in false testimony, and stirring up strife between friends. These are entirely despicable to God!”

    ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭6‬:‭17‬-‭19‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • Read the story that Jesus shared with the people to help them understand how God is and how He sees people and things.

    “Jesus continued. “There once was a very rich man who had the finest things imaginable, living every day enjoying his life of opulent luxury. Outside the gate of his mansion was a poor beggar named Lazarus. He lay there every day, covered with boils, and all the neighborhood dogs would come and lick his open sores. The only food he had to eat was the garbage that the rich man threw away. “One day poor Lazarus died, and the angels of God came and escorted his spirit into paradise. “The day came that the rich man also died. In hell he looked up from his torment and saw Abraham in the distance, and Lazarus was standing beside him in the glory. The rich man shouted, ‘Father Abraham! Father Abraham! Have mercy on me. Send Lazarus to dip his finger in water and come to cool my tongue, for I am in agony in these flames of fire!’ “But Abraham responded, ‘My friend, don’t you remember? While you were alive, you had all you desired. You surrounded yourself in luxury, while Lazarus had nothing. Now Lazarus dwells in the comforts of paradise and you are in agony. Besides, between us is a huge chasm that cannot be bridged, nor can anyone cross from one realm to the other, even if he wanted.’ “The rich man continued, ‘Then let me ask you, Father Abraham, please send Lazarus to my relatives. Tell him to witness to my five brothers and warn them not to end up where I am in this place of torment.’ “Abraham replied, ‘They’ve already had plenty of warning. They have the teachings of Moses and the revelation of the prophets; let them hear them.’ “ ‘What if they’re not listening?’ the rich man added. ‘If someone from the dead were to go and warn them, they would surely repent.’ “Abraham said to him, ‘If they wouldn’t listen to Moses and the prophets, neither would they be convinced if someone were raised from the dead!’ ”

    ‭‭Luke‬ ‭16‬:‭19‬-‭31‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    Now ask yourself if you have believed the one who came back from the dead and have you surrendered your life to Him so that your sins can be removed by His blood?

    Give your life to Jesus fully and you will never have to fear what will happen to you after you die. You will receive His righteousness by faith and you will become born again into a new creation that has no past sins or wrongs! All of the past is cleansed completely away for all who join their lives to Jesus.

  • The Future

    How would you design the city of the future?

    The city is beautiful without any negativity or fear. Everyone in it belongs because they all believe the truth. No one is deceiving anyone or envious of another. The city has streets paved with pure gold. The humble and pure of heart are finally free and full of perfect love and peace forever.

    The arrogance of the old cities has finally come to an end and the greed, lust and unbelief of the world has been contained outside of this city, so laughter and music are all that fills the atmosphere in this blessed and vibrant city. It is the city where the Lord dwells and all of the people who hate or destroy with their words and cruel deeds are unable to enter. Since there is no more deception, the people only experience love, peace and joy in the presence of the Lord.

    One of the best parts of the city is that no one is ever overlooked or forgotten. All have abundant resources and support. Neighbors are friendly and love to help each other. No child is ever harmed or killed. All the people speak in agreement for only good, and that is all they will ever know inside this city. No more sickness, no more fears, no more oppressed or afflicted. All are healed and whole in Jesus our Lord. A city on a hill that lights up the darkest places all around it, so that everyone is able to learn of God’s Salvation and live free.

    Without the news reporting doom and gloom stories 24/7 the people can finally believe for good again. And so they all have peace and stability. They all grow and learn what is right and good and no one is taught lies or led to believe bad things about themselves or anyone else.

    FREEDOM RINGS WHEN TRUTH ABOUNDS AND ALL THAT IS NOT DECEPTIVE IS EXPOSED AND REMOVED. The kids know who they are and none are without a family to love and help them. Darkness has passed away and a bright and beautiful dawning of a new way is all that remains.

    They will call the city Zion. The world that once was is no more. The people are alive forever more. Beautiful praises to God are heard on every tongue, because the people can finally understand what God has done!

  • I want to share this powerful word for all women who need to understand that this is their time to arise and be heard! God has not silenced your voice, but the enemy has tried to keep women oppressed and feeling like victims or defeated but those who trust in God, know they are not forgotten or without purpose. God will empower women to go forth everywhere from the boardroom to the classrooms and women will be given extraordinary favor and wisdom to build up their families, communities, nation, and the nations around the world. Not with strife and division, but with peace and purpose!

    We won’t be silent about the issues that are trying to destroy our children or the next generation with division and hatred or greed and lust!

    We will have justice that God brings to those who have been oppressed and freedom that can only be found in Jesus our Lord.

    We are not just here to keep a clean house or cook dinner. We are here to help a generation come out of darkness and complacency and into all that God has planned for us.

    Those who have been overlooked and felt betrayed or without purpose, God has plans and a purpose for you and He wants to draw you to Him now and begin to open your eyes to see your value and destiny that will impact the outcome for millions of those still unborn! Will the unborn have a chance to fulfill their purpose? Who will protect them? Will the identity be stolen from millions of children sold into slavery or confused by who they really are?

    Will the poor be forgotten forever? Will the women who were sexually abused as children by trusted individuals have to keep living in a world where their children are taught that it is okay for men to sleep around and go to strip clubs and even buy sex without any shame or fear while those women and young girls are being forced into lifestyles that destroy their confidence and steal their dreams? Will mothers have to bury their sons and daughters that were lured into a mindset of you can be free from reality if you get this drug that will take away all your pain and give you a high that keeps you from having to face the fears and hurts of a fallen world?

    Women, pray and ask the Lord to give you insight on where and what you are here to do. Start by forgiving and letting go of everyone and everything that has harmed you by releasing it to Jesus in exchange for his life and peace. He will give you the Holy Spirit to teach you and lead you into all Truth. Truth is needed because the world is full of deception and wrong thinking that causes serious harm, because it is from a fallen realm, but Truth is God’s Word that will never change or fail to fulfill its purpose.

    We get to choose to believe in the lies or what God says. If we choose to believe God, and know that it is only by the blood of Jesus that we are given right standing with God, we can lose our religion and need to be perfect to come to God for help. We are complete and loved by God because of Jesus! Nothing else that we do is enough or good apart from Jesus, so stop struggling with appearing to look good by all that you can do in your own strength! Put on Christ and let the people see Jesus as you surrender your life to Him and let Him lead you into the place of victory everyday!

    Religion is not Christ like, because the religious people are the ones who killed Jesus! They were jealous and didn’t want to lose their control and power over the people, but God doesn’t want to control you, He wants to empower you to rise up in love and light up a darkened world so others can find their way into a better future that has correct thinking and abundance in every area for a full life.

    No fear in any area, but confidence that comes from knowing the living God who gives you everything that you need to rise above the negativity of the world and the darkness of corruption to bless the people.

  • A Meal of Life

    The Lord wants you free and healthy so believe that there is NOTHING by any means that can harm you! Begin speaking to your body and mind with the Word of God which will bring your body under the highest authority and cause it to correct itself to health and wholeness by the words of life.
    Hearing and focusing on all that is NOT God’s Word, will cause serious harm and poor health to thrive, because your body and mind are taking in what it is hearing and seeing, but your flesh is of no value, because it is the Spirit that gives life. The Holy Spirit will quicken your flesh and bring it into full health as you agree with God’s Word and reject all evil. Sickness and lack are evil and not from God’s Kingdom. You have to retrain your mind with God’s Will and His righteousness that comes from seeking His Kingdom and the higher way of holiness. Holiness isn’t about being religious. It is about being separated from the corrupt way of thinking that causes sickness and lack in the world. God’s ways are higher and He longs for all people to BELIEVE and accept what He has done for them, so they can be free from all the things they formerly couldn’t escape in this world.

  • The Walk of Life

    The best testimony for Jesus is our lives. I can’t say that I was anything at all before God woke me up, but once I knew Jesus, everything was different.
    This was surely where I had always belonged, but there was no way to recall the former things until the former things called me up higher. How can we find what we never knew was lost? The Lord has always known us, and there are books that reveal each day of our lives that God wrote according to His plans that were made before any of us arrived on the earth. There are angels that are sent to help ensure God’s plans for our lives are on track. We are not alone in this world, and all of Heaven is cheering us on as we finish the last leg of the race as champions in Christ.
    With the rescue of the final characters that are to play out the parts written and beautifully choreographed by the master artist and author, it was now time for the final ACT- The Return to One.
    The people must go through a transformation by being washed clean by the Word of God, but also by acts of praise and worship with grateful hearts ready to give any and all that we have been given to those that God sends us to help. It isn’t something that people are able to see or understand if they don’t remain in the Words of Life, because the world is full of lies and there are things and systems that have been established and exalted by the people that are completely against the Word of God, but people have accepted them and even teach others what they created through experiences rather than the Word of God.
    They are lost and they don’t know that they are not on the right pathway, The world has told them that they have to be successful and do whatever is necessary to get the most, be the best and dominate everything and everyone around them. They aren’t satisfied with anything ever, because no one can be fully satisfied without being reconciled and in the right relationship with the Creator. There is an empty void that is only filled by the acceptance and love of our Heavenly Father. We need Jesus and the Holy Spirit to get us through this world because, without the covering provided to us through the atonement of Jesus, a person is not able to be reconciled back to God. The finished works of Jesus and the powerful atonement made by His blood which covers the mercy seat in Heaven, open the place for us to seek God’s counsel and help.
    When a person is at peace and nothing is able to shake or cause them to be in fear anymore, they have overcome the world. Not with wealth and power, but with the blood of Jesus and the testimony that is in every born-again believer in Christ.
    There is much work to be done by the church still. How can we rest and trust God when we can only see the world in its fallen state? Ask for a higher perspective.

  • Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

    In ten years, I will be standing in a stadium worshipping the Lord. The stadium will be filled with people surrendering their lives to Jesus. Thousands upon thousands will be baptized and set free. There will be no more confusion or deception working against the Truth, so the people will all know the Lord and none will be without understanding.

    The Holy Spirit will be received by those who were once lost and blind, and the praises will fill the atmosphere as all the people will finally see how wonderful and beautiful the Lord is. They will be so deeply in love with Jesus, because they will understand how much he has done for all of them in spite of all the awful things they once thought and believed.

    I will be helping baptize the thousands of people, and my heart will be overflowing with so much joy knowing that Jesus will be honored and receive all that he so deserves. All the love he poured out will forever be poured out back to him by all his creation.

  • What do you listen to while you work?

    I listen for God’s voice to speak tender mercy to my heart and bring me higher in His love. When His Words pour over my life, I am set free of fear, doubt and unbelief. I become joyful and nothing can stop my praises for all that He has done for me.

    There was a time when I listened to religious people speak lies and tell me what God was like, but then the Lord told me that most people who say they know Him have never known Him, and I stopped believing the lies about who He was, and started living in His love and grace for me.

    Faithfully He leads me to the place of peace and harmony with His divine plans spilling forth for my life to shine as a radiant bride for my beloved King. Why would anyone who has never known perfect love decide to be a pastor or teacher of something they never experienced? I don’t know, but it is time for people to believe what the Bible says and not just the parts that were before God’s salvation came to save all mankind! Choose to believe the Truth and acknowledge God as a loving and generous Father who sees and knows everything. Stop trying to make God someone that fits in your box or matches what you think, but start reading the Love story He wrote for us known as the Holy Bible and receive all that is available for all who will Believe.

  • Psalm 145

    “My heart explodes with praise to you! Now and forever my heart bows in worship to you, my King and my God! Every day I will lift up my praise to your name with praises that will last throughout eternity. Lord, you are great and worthy of the highest praise! For there is no end to the discovery of the greatness that surrounds you. Generation after generation will declare more of your greatness and declare more of your glory. Your magnificent splendor and the miracles of your majesty are my constant meditation. Your awe-inspiring acts of power have everyone talking! I’m telling people everywhere about your excellent greatness! Our hearts bubble over as we celebrate the fame of your marvelous beauty, bringing bliss to our hearts. We shout with ecstatic joy over your breakthrough for us. You’re kind and tenderhearted to those who don’t deserve it and very patient with people who fail you. Your love is like a flooding river overflowing its banks with kindness. God, everyone sees your goodness, for your tender love is blended into everything you do. Everything you have made will praise you, fulfilling its purpose. And all your godly ones will be found bowing before you. They will tell the world of the lavish splendor of your kingdom and preach about your limitless power. They will demonstrate for all to see your miracles of might and reveal the glorious majesty of your kingdom. You are the Lord who reigns over your never-ending kingdom through all the ages of time and eternity! You are faithful to fulfill every promise you’ve made. You manifest yourself as kindness in all you do. Weak and feeble ones you will sustain. Those bent over with burdens of shame you will lift up. You have captured our attention and the eyes of all look to you. You give what they hunger for at just the right time. When you open your generous hand, it’s full of blessings, satisfying the longings of every living thing. You are fair and righteous in everything you do, and your love is wrapped into all your works. You draw near to those who call out to you, listening closely, especially when their hearts are true. Every godly one receives even more than what they ask for. For you hear what their hearts really long for, and you bring them your saving strength. God, you watch carefully over all your devoted lovers like a bodyguard, but you will destroy the ungodly. I will praise you, Lord! Let everyone everywhere join me in praising the beautiful Lord of holiness from now through eternity!”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭145‬:‭1‬-‭21‬ ‭TPT‬‬

  • bible.com/bible/1849/mat.25.31-46.TPT

    ““When the Son of Man appears in his majestic glory, with all his angels by his side, he will take his seat on his throne of splendor, and all the nations will be gathered together before him. And like a shepherd who separates the sheep from the goats, he will separate all the people. The ‘sheep’ he will put on his right side and the ‘goats’ on his left. Then the King will turn to those on his right and say, ‘You have a special place in my Father’s heart. Come and experience the full inheritance of the kingdom realm that has been destined for you from before the foundation of the world! For when you saw me hungry, you fed me. When you found me thirsty, you gave me drink. When I had no place to stay, you invited me in, and when I was poorly clothed, you covered me. When I was sick, you tenderly cared for me, and when I was in prison you visited me.’ “Then the godly will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty and give you food and something to drink? When did we see you with no place to stay and invite you in? When did we see you poorly clothed and cover you? When did we see you sick and tenderly care for you, or in prison and visit you?’ “And the King will answer them, ‘Don’t you know? When you cared for one of the least of these, my little ones, my true brothers and sisters, you demonstrated love for me.’ “Then to those on his left the King will say, ‘Leave me! For you are under the curse of eternal fire that has been destined for the devil and all his demons. For when you saw me hungry, you gave me no food, and when you saw me thirsty, you gave me no drink. I had no place to stay, and you refused to take me in as your guest. When you saw me poorly clothed, you closed your hearts and did not clothe me. When you saw that I was sick, you didn’t lift a finger to help me, and when I was imprisoned, you never came to visit me.’ “And then those on his left will say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty and not give you food and something to drink? When did we see you homeless, or poorly clothed? When did we see you sick and not help you, or in prison and not visit you?’ “Then he will answer them, ‘Don’t you know? When you refused to help one of the least important among these my little ones, my true brothers and sisters, you refused to help and honor me.’ And they will depart from his presence into eternal punishment. But the godly and beloved ‘sheep’ will enter into eternal bliss.””

    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭31‬-‭46‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    God is Love. To know God means a person has love and not hate in his heart. Loving and serving the needs of others as a top priority even when it is inconvenient or costly.

    Jesus paid the ultimate price for us to be helped and reconciled back to God. Is there something more that each of us can do to show gratitude to God by helping others that we know can’t repay us?

    There is nothing better than knowing that someone’s life was blessed and changed for good, because you were obedient to God’s will and you helped that person even when it seemed unfair or too time-consuming or financially burdensome.

  • bible.com/bible/1849/pro.1.23.TPT

    God is my reality, but I know that many have not believed or known Him as anything more than a myth or someone that has no impact on their everyday existence. That is actually hilariously stupid to think that the One who created us has no impact or place in our everyday existence. We wouldn’t be here without Him, and nothing can exist outside of God’s presence or creation, because He created everything that we need to live from air to water to love and light.

    I can honestly say that when I found the Lord or He drew me to himself, I was a broken and fearful girl who needed to be set free and become a woman that is able to believe for great things and help create a beautiful world for the next generation to have a better life than the past generations.

    No matter how much or how little a person has in this world, if they walk with the Lord and have an intimate relationship with him, they will always be at peace and never need to be afraid of anything. Whether sickness or financial devastation comes, Jesus is always there to bring us out in victory.

    I have lost everything and been so joyful and grateful when I had Jesus with me, but when I had expensive cars and a million dollar home with all the upgrades before I knew Jesus, I was so miserable and never satisfied. I was missing the One thing that brings us into a real life and fills our souls with good things, and that is Jesus.

    When I became aware that Jesus was real and wanted a relationship with me. I was in awe of all that He had done for me and all that He wanted to do with me. He didn’t just want to see me one day in Heaven, he wanted to hang out with me everyday and help me with everything from making it to appointments on time to buying the perfect Christmas gift for that person who seems impossible to please.

    I didn’t just find a Savior that lived a long time ago, I was awakened to what my soul had always thirsted for but never could be quenched with the stuff of the world. He is the love of my life who brought me from darkness to light. I found a eternal partner that will never leave me even if everyone else goes. No matter what happens with my family and friendships, I always have the One that I need to make me laugh, to encourage me, to teach me and show me things that are so amazing and awesome, to open doors that no one can shut or block, and to keep me in perfect health and full of joy and love all my days here now and forever.

    If you don’t know what I am talking about, I am so sorry that no one ever told you what it means to be a beloved child of God and a Bride for King Jesus.

    I am married with a family, but Jesus is more real to me than even the children that I birthed and raised.

    There is only one way to true life and that is being united to Christ Jesus. If you seek Him, you will find Him. If you pray and believe in Him, and read the Bible and learn who He is, you will never ever regret that, but if you choose to always ignore him and never give your life to him, you will regret that for all eternity.

    When people say they don’t want to hear about “your God” or Jesus, it is because they have believed lies about who he is and what He is like. If you enjoy being lavished with love and blessings, then you should spend your life praising the Lord and loving him by helping others who are in need, but if you prefer anger, hatred, jealousy and bitterness towards everyone and everything that did you wrong, than Jesus isn’t for you.

    Jesus is merciful and kind. He is powerful and Holy, but He is found with the lowly and broken. He is the protector and provider and the healer and deliverer. He is the hope and joy and peace and love that every soul longs to know. Most don’t know they are desperately in need of Him, but I am telling the truth when I say that every single soul was meant to find him and be united with him.

    For those of you who don’t know him yet, you don’t have to hear about him and decide if he is worth your time, you can simply taste and see that He is good by asking this:

    “God, I have heard about you, but I don’t really know you personally as my reality. I was wondering if you might be willing to take my heart and flood it with your love right now, so that I might understand what you are really like?”

    If you find yourself completely undone by the love my Lord has for you, you might want to go ahead and make him your Lord and Savior too!

    You just ask him to forgive you of all of your past mistakes that were done without him, and ask him to give you a new life with his Holy Spirit directing you and helping you every step of the way.

    Do read the gospels and learn what the Lord did for you to be able to be reconciled back to God, because it will make you love him and others so much more!

    God bless you!

  • If there were no demonic influences in this world, the people would not do what they do, and they would all be helping each other and no one would want to speak negatively or cause another to be afflicted.

    Unfortunately, we are in a fallen world and our only hope to escape those influences of evil is to be covered by the Blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus is terrifying to a demon and so powerful that it can break every curse and cleanse every evil conscience of sin and guilt.

    So be sure that you are protected by declaring the Blood of Jesus over your family and all that is yours. After that, pray for all who cause harm, division and strife around you to he blessed and have a true encounter with the Lord that will change their hearts .

    Speaking negatively about others or yourself will only do more damage and give the enemy more fuel to keep causing harm, so destroy evil with love. Don’t take anything to heart that happens if it is negative, but think on how good our God is for forgiving all of our mistakes and loving us when we were at our worst.

    “For what merit is it to endure mistreatment for wrongdoing? Yet if you are mistreated when you do what is right, and you faithfully endure it, this is commendable before God. In fact, you were called to live this way, because Christ also suffered in your place, leaving you his example for you to follow. He never sinned and he never spoke deceitfully. When he was verbally abused, he did not return with an insult; when he suffered, he would not threaten retaliation. Jesus faithfully entrusted himself into the hands of God, who judges righteously. He himself carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we would be dead to sin and live for righteousness. Our instant healing flowed from his wounding. You were like sheep that continually wandered away, but now you have returned to the true Shepherd of your lives—the kind Guardian who lovingly watches over your souls.”

  • She Was Forgiven Much, so She Loved Much

    If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?

    Mary from the Bible. She had seven demons cast out of her but she was the one Jesus appeared to first after his resurrection and she was the one that loved much. She was willing to risk her reputation and didn’t care what people thought when she washed his feet with her tears and dried them with her hair. She knew she wasn’t welcome in the house where they were reclining for dinner that evening, but she came and anointed him with the costly perfume and prepared his body for what was coming next. She was the one that was unworthy and unwanted but she was the one who loved much and didn’t let anything keep her back from worshiping the Lord.

    When they all ran away, she stood at the cross and watched as they crucified Christ. She didn’t turn away, but there was nothing she could do but stand there for him as he was betrayed and beaten and mocked and murdered by the very people that He came to save by teaching them first about God’s good news that was at the time of its fulfillment. She is the one who showed more love than any of the others who were with Jesus. She wasn’t given a place as one of his 12 disciples that were to go on to great glory and awesome reward after their ministry on earth, but she would have done anything for him and she was willing to sit at his feet and listen when her sister was demanding that she get up and help with the cooking and work of serving the people. Jesus was her only priority and she would have given anything for him. She loved much.

  • I Am Who God Says I Am

    As He is, so am I 

    Through the anointing power of the Holy Spirit, and the confession of my mouth, “I can do all things in Christ who is my strength!”

    “The Lord preserves and keeps my life. I dwell in his safety. He keeps me in perfect peace as my eyes are on him”

    “I lack for nothing in Christ I am above and not beneath! If God is for me, Who would dare be Against me?!?”

    “The Lord gives his angels charge to watch over me in all my ways. They shall bear me up on their hands so that I don’t smash my foot against a stone”

    “The peace of Christ rules in my heart. The spirit of the Lord is upon me. He has anointed me to preach the good news! To declare the favorable year of the Lord. To set the captives free, heal the sick, raise the dead…He has been given all authority in Heaven and on earth, and in His name, I drive back my enemies and expose the works of darkness. Nothing by any means shall harm me. In Christ, I am eternal and my reward is the undeserved, unmerited favor of the Lord on my life from this time forth and forever more! The hand of blessing of the Lord is stretched out upon my head and life! I am mighty in Christ to the pulling down of strongholds and taking captive every thought and disobedience to the truth of Christ.”

    God is higher than us, but he comes down low to revive the languishing soul with encouraging words of love and hope. Then He takes us up above those negative thoughts by seating us in Christ in heavenly places! 

    Seated in Christ, we have already overcome this world! 

    We have all that we will ever need and simply need to push through wrong thinking that binds and torments too many, and causes so much frustration. The reason the people speak scriptures over negative circumstances is to break off those wrong things with the Truth. Speak life and you will live! 

    Follow the world and the negative strife of the people and you will likely become sick and miserable without hope! 

    Christ is our hope and He has given us his precious promises that are manifested as we pray and believe for them in our lives. 

    “The prayer of a righteous man has great power as it is spoken!”

    I will call those things that are not as though they are, and I will see the fruit of my lips become a great blessing for me and my city. 

    Speak Life by agreeing with God’s Word, and create a beautiful harvest of love every season! Blooming the most fragrant and delightful fruits that create the best wine for the end time! 

    The key is the believing part! The Word (Jesus) also says, “These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover.” 

    Mark 16:17-18

    Jesus also prays to the Father and says, “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word.” John 17:20. 

    If you believe in Jesus, because you heard the Words of life and accepted them as the Truth (Jesus is the Truth, life and way) you are also granted access into God’s Kingdom through the faith you have to believe that Jesus truly was who he said and His Words are Life, so Believe and accept them. He paid for us to be healed, whole and fellow heirs in the Kingdom of God. It’s not a fairy tale. It is the Truth, but if you don’t believe, you will have what you believe in. I have Christ in me, but no sickness. I don’t believe in sickness, and I don’t allow other people to tell me that I should go to the doctor for check ups just in case. There is no just in case. God’s Word is Either absolute Truth or not. If your thoughts question “maybe God didn’t really say that about me being healed or maybe it was just for others but not for me” those thoughts are from the devil and therefore you must refuse them! Because once you open yourself up to allow the thoughts of doubt and unbelief to fog your perception, you no longer know what is true and what is a lie. 

    We need to remind each other always that God is in us and how can we be sick when God is in us? Tell your mind what is True and only accept God’s Truth and you won’t be open to accepting every other negative report from people who are “experts” but their expertise is without godly wisdom and knowledge of the Holy one. 

    So maybe we should be asking, “who needs us to come and lay hands on them for healing?” 

    We are the solution to the virus. We are the vaccine! Those who have the Truth are always the Vaccine to all issues in this world. I am not bragging, I am speaking the Truth. I have plenty of oil in my lamp to help light the path for any in darkness to come out and be healed. I spent the last four years gaining wisdom and being taught by the Lord. I might not be ordained as a preacher, or have a degree in theology, but when God called my name in the middle of the night, I arose and went with Him to be taught and to pray for all people and nations. When the Holy Spirit led me to people in need, I helped them. When I saw things that didn’t align with God’s Word, I prayed, they might be corrected. 

    I am not perfect, but Jesus is, and He completes me so that I am without fault in the presence of my Heavenly Father. 

    “The tongue of the wise is health” Proverbs 12:18

  • In 2018, my seventeen year old son lost a friend to suicide. The teen had fallen away from his former peers that were from good homes and had good plans for their futures. Instead of living in his true God given identity he got pulled into a dark world of drugs and lost souls in need of a savior. This young man was known for his kindness and compassion toward others, but when he was in need of help, he found no one willing to stretch out their hand to pull him back into the light.

    He was talked about by his former friends as if he had already passed away once he found himself stuck in a pit of drugs and staying up all night. He no longer went to school with his friends, but was locked away at home becoming more and more isolated from what most people take for granted as a “normal life”.

    At the funeral service, the older sister of the teen stood at the podium and lashed out at the youth that were involved in drugs and declared that they were all going to end up like her brother if they didn’t get help. It was terribly harsh and the youth that had been doing drugs were quickly identified by their loud wails of sobbing, so the sister begged them to let her help. She then explained that her brother had needed her and she turned her back on him by convincing herself that she would reconnect with him once he got out of that stage he was going through. She had been frustrated and angry with her brother’s choices, so she blocked him out of her life until he could prove he was on the right track again.

    Unfortunately she wasn’t the only one that did that to him. The young man was desperately lost and in need of TRUTH about his true identity and worth.

    The pastor asked the guests at the funeral to repeat after him as he led them through the sinners prayer that asks Jesus to become Lord of their lives. So in an instant 300 or so teens asked Jesus to take over their lives and be their Savior. I felt my head being lifted up towards the ceiling and I knew it was the Lord looking at my response to the prayer that I had asked for that young man’s life to have great value and purpose and not be wasted. I could even sense that the teen was standing next to Jesus and the great cloud of witnesses as they were cheering and full of joy at the three hundred lost souls being redeemed that day.

    As those teens went back to their homes that day they were changed and there was nothing that could take that away from them now. They were on a highway that leads into the heart of perfect love. The teen that took his life had been a seed that was planted in good soil at a young age in Christ, so when his life here was over, the impact it would have on the world was just beginning. Because he died in Christ, his life was able to reproduce a harvest of righteousness. What looks like the end for many, is simply the beginning for another generation to arise and continue the journey to perfect love.

    A pure heart is able to see God working all things together for good and having understanding of what life is really all about and what Jesus did to give us all life, is what is needed to persevere through good times and bad. Nothing is impossible with God, and even death of one life here is able to create an eternity of love and life for generations to come.

    I shared what God did that day with the teens mother and she was so overwhelmed with relief in hearing that her sweet boy had been responsible for the Salvation of so many lost lives was the greatest comfort a mother could ask to have that day.

    She wasn’t to blame nor were the others in his life, but love had found a better outcome and mercy covered all of the sins of the people that hadn’t shown kindness or love when it was needed.

    Although it is vital that we all see and help others, it is also necessary that we receive forgiveness and healing for the wrongs we do each day without being aware because of hardness of hearts.

    The next generation is hungry for Truth! Don’t make them beg for the food that leads to eternal life. Teach them to pray and believe in God who is always good to us in Christ Jesus!

  • The United States Of America is known as the land of the free and the home of the brave, but when will there be freedom from hatred and division? When will the people wake up and realize that they are not going to find peace when they continue to find fault with everyone around them?

    There is something that I consider the most powerful weapon and the most incredible force to provide a safe and prosperous community, and that is Love.

    Not the love that ignores the pain of others but the love that offers help to all who are in need, and the love that refuses to pass a car accident without saying a prayer for all involved. A love that partners with God to produce a harvest of righteousness by praying for all who cause harm to others and blessing all those who try to oppress and crush others.

    To see from a higher perspective or lens that isn’t tainted with hurt or what is in it for self, but to see how to pray and seek the interest of the people by allowing God’s Word to take a hold of you and begin flowing forth in prayers and praise that produce a perfect harmony with Heaven, so blessings are poured out like the spring rains!

    It is time for those spring rains to burst forth a beautiful love that will continue to call us all higher in love and lead us on a pathway of praise and hope for a glorious life in Christ.

  • When He called me His beloved and said He has loved me with an everlasting love, my heart melted and my soul was finally free. His words were more than just a kind gesture or compliment. His words were alive and they immediately took hold of my heart and cleansed me from every negative impurity.

    I had never known such sweetness and genuine concern and love from anyone like He showed me. He was gentle and His tenderness made me trust Him without fear. I was finally at peace and nothing was more important to me than to be with Him and to live every moment focused on His love and sharing that same kindness and compassion to everyone I would be sent to help.

    The days and nights all ran together. I remember there were even nights where it looked so bright outside that I couldn’t tell if it was morning or just the brightness of the Lord surrounding me. He was my every thought and I couldn’t separate myself from His heart if I tried, because I was so deeply woven into His heart and He in mine.

    He asked me to get away alone with Him for awhile and I wasn’t sure what that meant, but once I gave everything in the world up and gave myself fully to His plan and pathway for my life, I never wanted to go back to the world again.

    It was impossible to imagine fitting in with the people that were all too busy and blind or asleep to care about God’s heart and plans for this generation. The people were focused on all that I knew had no value and would never do or be enough to satisfy their souls like the love of the living God. I wanted to share everything that I was seeing and being taught each day by the Lord, but most of the people were not able to hear or accept it yet, so I spent two years separated from the world as I prayed for all that the Lord wanted to do to transform the people into a glorious and radiant bride that cared for what mattered to His heart and to love and devote all my time to worshiping the One who is worthy of all our praise.

    He is my friend and my beloved.

    It was the greatest, most awesome and incomparable experience that everyone should seek for themselves, because the Lord loves all of His creation.

    I walked away from all the world offers to fall in love with the most beautiful and perfect love that is no longer a name or a hope of faith, but my reality forever and there is nothing better anywhere and there never will be.

    He is worth it!! Even one day with Him would have been worth giving up a thousand career opportunities and all the money and fame in the world, because it is nothing anyway and everyone will some day understand that too.

    His name is Jesus, and He is the Savior of the world for all who will call on Him and receive Him into their hearts and become a new creation through his Holy Spirit which is given to all BELIEVERS. If you believe and want to know Jesus, the Father and the Holy Spirit with experiential knowledge, ask God and know that He longs to manifest Himself to all that believe and belong to Him.

    Don’t worry about your messed up life. He is the One that will make it all beautiful and give you purpose when you hand it over to Him and trust Him to take you on a new journey that will transform you and everyone you know.

    One day the Lord said to me in a very beautiful and clear voice, “I have loved you with an everlasting love”. As He said that, I stopped to think about what that meant, because it really shocked me for some reason to hear those words. I immediately realized that meant He would never stop loving me, and that I was accepted and there was nothing that I could do to make him love me more or less, because His love for me was everlasting.

    Suddenly all the years of worrying about being good enough or about not being safe or what might happen if this or that should take place, those things were all washed away from my thoughts, and I was free to believe in only good things about myself and God. I didn’t have to live in fear about the future or worry about the past, because I knew that I was loved with an everlasting love by the Creator of all that is good and right.

    He knew me from before I was born He went on to say, and that He named me and had a special purpose for my life. I literally felt Him smiling as He was speaking those words to me. As baffled as I was to hear that I actually had a purpose for being here that was not what I thought, but a purpose that the Lord had created and sent me here to do was not only beyond what I could fully grasp in that moment, but one that no one else could believe if I told them either, so I kept it to myself.

    I began to live like I never knew I could after that. I wasn’t afraid of anyone or anything anymore, because I knew who I was, and the enemy knew that I knew that too, so the Lord crushed Satan under my feet and I was no longer a slave to fear or doubt and unbelief. The Lord told me that He was able to speak to me that day, because I turned and looked when I saw a strange spiral of vapor swirling in front me. I can only assume that the Lord tries to speak to many people by getting their attention through things like a burning bush, a whirlwind, a supernatural thing, so don’t just ignore what you don’t understand. Stop and look to see what the Lord wants to speak to you.

    I am sharing that today, because there are so many people that need to know that God is not only real, but He is really in love with them and is trying to get their attention everyday, but they haven’t allowed Him to be in their lives because they haven’t believed that they are fully loved and accepted by Him. Forgiveness and mercy are for all who are willing to receive it. It’s not just for the one who sits in every church service. It is for every sinner and every saint to be free and live above the world’s corruption and negativity.

    To live a life without fear and to love like you truly know what love is because you have experienced God’s Love first!

    Once you know that kinda love, nothing will ever compare to the satisfaction and joy that comes through and makes all things new in you and everywhere you share that same Truth with others.

    Love is not an emotion, it’s a person. It is God and that is why Love is the highest and best that we can ever hope for and have in us and flowing from us. Love makes everyone and everything bearable in this world.

    Even the people that once seemed so awful, suddenly appear so different because you understand that they are only that way because they have never experienced that perfect love to be made right yet, so you can pray for everyone with an eagerness to see them all awakened and blessed. Praying becomes a lifestyle and the only solution that you need anymore for all the issues that the world throws at you or the people around you.

    Jesus in us is the hope of glory that we should all be connected to and living our lives as yielded vessels for his power and manifested presence to be seen by a hurting and lost world in need of hope and healing.

    So I would like to say to all the Believers in the world right now, “Shine on you crazy diamonds”. Because the light is needed more than ever that we carry.

    One more thing, I was also made aware of how the devil and the demonic realm work to create so much evil, and if you have felt rejected, have suffered abuse, been stolen from, lied to, overlooked, or made to seem like you are crazy or always wrong, that is all a bunch of deception and all negativity is demonic. Avoid listening to gossip and any negative comments, news or stories because they are only there to cause fear, doubt and unbelief.

    Lock out all of it and open up the Word of God and take a hold of what is good and right by believing ALL that Jesus spoke and never doubt that God is good and it is always His will that you and everyone are healed and have peace as well as a prosperous life of abundance in Christ!

    If you think low thoughts about yourself and others, remember that God’s thoughts are higher and He only sees the good and not the evil, so ask Him to lift you out of that pit so you can see and believe for good again with Him.

    Love endures all things, hopes all things and believes all things. Love never ends and it will never fail to rejoice with the truth. Jesus is the Truth, so receive Him as your Lord and Savior and live as a joyful, beloved child of God!!

    Freedom is not accomplished by war and fighting. Freedom comes from knowing the Truth!! Thank you for taking the time to read this today and may it give you hope to believe again in ONLY what is good for yourself and others!

  • How can you have hope and know that your future will be good? How can anyone assume that everything will just work out fine? Why would a person believe in spite of a mountain of debt and a pocket of lint, that they will always have their needs met? Who decided that a poor man can’t have a good future or that a wealthy man has to be stingy?

    I met God one day while desperately seeking solutions to all the evils of the world. It was kind of funny how He just interrupted all of my fear and worries and drenched me in so much healing love that all I could do was smile and stare at the glory that filled the atmosphere. It was like being captured in a bottle of champagne with beautiful bubbles all around me that were so intoxicating that I was literally instantly set free from my forty something years of wrong thinking and negative beliefs.

    Suddenly there was hope and joy that I never knew existed. I could see the world with a clarity and a colorful vision of love and redemption. What God spoke to me that day changed my life forever and I am still gaining more and more from that one conversation than I could ever get from all the years of school and higher education.

    Every word that He spoke was like a cleansing flood that continues to drive away all the darkness and evil when it tries to creep back in. Who could of guessed that there was such a beautiful future planned for all of us? It certainly hadn’t crossed my mind back then. Because my mind was so full of negativity from the news and the rulers of darkness that work their plans into the thoughts of man to create hatred, division, blame, shame, greed, lust, envy and all the things that man was never created to know or partake of before evil entered through disobedience to God.

    I spent the next five years after that encounter just worshiping and weeping for the lives of the people all around the globe. I was given a special opportunity to pray for all the lost and all that was not in alignment with God’s Word. In fact, The Lord told me to begin blessing everyone everywhere and to hold nothing back no matter what the cost. He promised that He would continue to provide as I would open my heart and life to pour out blessings for His glory to come into every church and life like never before.

    I had no background of growing up “churched” so I was free to believe all that He would share and ask me to declare for His Word was in me and became my own Words so that I needed no one to teach me or tell me what was God’s will. I became His will to a broken generation of drug addicts, homeless teens, single mothers and innocent victims of sex trafficking and child abuse and neglect.

    I showed up wherever there was a need, and I prayed fervently for all that the Lord would show me he wanted to change. Love was my motivation and hope was in my heart. I had faith to move out the old mountains hindering so many people who were blind and naked of God’s covering.

    There were things that I experienced that I will probably never be able to share with anyone, but here is what I want to make clear to anyone who takes the time to read this post; God is faithful and He wants all people to be free by accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior, so they will all be reconciled and have a relationship with our Heavenly Father. He is so good and has waited patiently for all people to be able to know the Truth, so that He can remove all that is not redeemable and bless all who are made new in Christ.

    Turn your heart to God, and be saved so that He can send the Christ appointed for you and that times of refreshment might come from the presence of the Lord!

    Because there is NOTHING that will ever satisfy your soul like the acceptance and freedom that comes from abiding in His perfect love.

    He told me that only Love can destroy evil completely and that was how the evil in my heart and life were conquered and I became a fearless love warrior to partner with Jesus.

    The collection of photos represent a few of the lives that I have been blessed to know and encourage and grow with as God has placed them in my path to bless or to be blessed by them. Together we poured out our hearts and helped any and all that we saw or were sent to find and help, and even some that will never know what we did for them in the name of Love, because we only did what we were assigned to do and we don’t deserve recognition for doing what was commanded for all to do, but I can say that none of it would have been possible if it weren’t for the passionate love of Christ in us!

    We did it all for LOVE!

    God is Love!

  • There are moments that every person will face where they are given a chance to help or harm others, and those are usually the times when we feel our absolute lowest and have been crushed by the very people that we are now given an opportunity to help. This has happened to me countless times and I wish that I could say that I always got it right, but that wouldn’t be correct. Unfortunately in a heated moment when things have escalated to the point of voices raised and feelings hurt, we often want to defend and destroy more than we feel like blessing and forgiving.

    It takes God’s grace to remind us that nothing is impossible and if Jesus was able to hang on a cross completely disfigured from the horrific abuse and torture that he endured by sinners, I am pretty sure that He can give us the grace we need to endure the hateful things people do knowingly or unknowingly that try to wound us.

    It is only when we truly understand how great God’s love is for us that we are able to rise above the world and become a blessing to the people still in darkness. If we become part of that darkness by holding onto offenses, it will only cause us to become like the people who harmed us. It is in love and grace that we are able to forgive. Ask the Lord to search your heart and make it clean.

    We all need a little more love and God is Love so let’s exalt what is good and turn away from everything else.

  • www.bible.com/bible/59/luk.10.17-20.esv

    “The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!” And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.””

    ‭‭Luke‬ ‭10:17-20‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Knowing that you are accepted and that your name is written in the Book of Life is a cause for daily celebration and praise to God. To be grateful and rejoice in the Holy Spirit is such a wonderful and blessed life. To have peace no matter what is happening in the world around you. To be free from condemnation and to experience the Father, Son and Holy Spirit as your normal, is something that everyone should expect and seek to experience by believing the Bible as Truth and rejecting all other reasoning and rationale.

    When I believed what God said, I received it. When I questioned God’s goodness and mercy for my life and believed that I had to do something to earn Salvation or acceptance, I was in darkness. All that was required of me was to believe on Jesus and to trust God’s plan for my life.

    I didn’t have to beg God to help me, because He had already sent Jesus to finish it all and now I can receive the Truth and live in the amazing Grace and glory of God. Because I chose to believe and let go of wrong thinking.

    It’s good to believe, but to doubt is to be blind and deaf to all that God has for us. So ONLY BELIEVE!

    It’s good to repent and ask the Lord to show you what you need to understand and what you need to be doing.

    I know that there is nothing better than accepting Jesus and being accepted into the Kingdom of God. I hope and pray that everyone has experiential knowledge of God so that they will never have to fear again, but can receive everything they need to overcome this world by the blood of Jesus and the Word of their testimony.

    BELIEVE

  • When the Lord gives you His Word, it is a sword and when He covers and provides for you, He gives you wings to escape the snares of the world that come from lust and corruption. It is when people try to provide for themselves another way of escape or provision that they get snared and hooked by the ways of the world.

    Surrender and let God be your everything always and you will NEVER go wrong.
