Trust God

God has a plan and a purpose for everything that He has created, including us. He doesn't ask much of his creations. He just wants us to be what He created us to be. To live out His plan and designed purpose for our lives. If we could all do that, I believe that we would see a great change in this world. I've been listening to Dr. Miles Monroe a lot lately. He says that has God placed the potential of everything He created, within it. The seed that grows into a tree. The

Trust God

When you trust something you have confidence in it. You believe that it will do exactly what it is purposed to do. If you have trust in a person, you take their word for who they are and what they say they will do. We even take other peoples word when we are deciding to try something new... like new services, places we haven't visited or even foods we haven't tried. We put trust in everything around us, often without even thinking about it. We trust that the lights will co

Be Excited And Expectant

What excites you? For me there are many things, as a child I was always excited when Christmas was near. Knowing that there were unknown surprises coming would keep me on edge for days. Now I get excited when my vacation is coming up or when I know I am going to get something new like, a new car. We all have things that excite us but what should excite us most is the prospect of experiences and encounters with God. God is the God of miracles, signs and wonders. Just take

God of Miracles, Signs and Wonders

A miracle is an amazing, highly improbable or extraordinary event. It is an outstanding achievement. Something surprising and unexplainable by rational terms, but only understood by divine intervention or the supernatural. A sign is an object or an event that indicates the presence of something else. Just like a road sign can tell you about something up the road that you cannot see. God often gives us signs. These signs are often warnings. We have all had them but many o

Woman of Faith

In the bible there is a story about a woman named Naomi. Naomi was a wife and a mother of two sons. Eventually her sons grew older, fell in love and were married. Life progressed normally and they lived together for many years. Over time several tragedies took place in Naomi's life. Her husband died and not long after that both of her sons passed away as well. This devastated Naomi and her daughter-in-laws. They were together but left alone with no one to care for them.

Dear Fear

(This is a letter I submitted to Alley Muse (www.alleymuse,com) as part of a 'Dear Fear', encouragement contest, I LOVE their pens- hopefully I'll win some:)) Dear Fear, We have had this binding relationship for far too long. Over the years I have depended on you to keep me safe, but at the risk of stunting my own growth. You have always been there for me and you have never let me down. Every time I wanted to do something too risky or too exciting, you were right there, pu

Give It To God- Anxiety

I have had anxiety my whole life. Before I even knew what to call it, it was already there. It became so much a part of me that I claimed it, as just who I was. I held on to it as a part of my identity. All things that I believed about myself was connected to it. So many negative thoughts, and I believed them all. No one else had to tell me because I had already convinced myself of who I was. Growing up, I didn't say much because I never thought I had anything worth say

Obedience

The life of a Christian begins with a belief in Jesus Christ. A belief in who He is, The Son of God. A part of the godhead, the Father, 'the Son' and the Holy Spirit. A belief that He came to save us and gave his life so that we may have the right to eternal life. He is known as the Lamb of God, the Messiah, the visible image of an invisible God, God in the flesh and so many other things. He is our Savior, the King of Kings. For me He is my everything, my daily motivatio

Idolatry

Idolatry

Idolatry is defined as the extreme love, adoration or reverence of someone or something. The bible is very clear that, we should have no other gods before Him. It is actually one of the ten commandments. He created us for a purpose and He doesn't demand but He deserves for us to show Him reverence. He is worthy of all of our praise and worship. When I think of idolatry I often think of bowing down and saying prayers to a statue. Like in the story of Moses. When Moses ca

God Led Giving

It is better to give than to receive. I believe that this is a quote from the bible but I am more familiar with hearing it in conversations, especially around the holidays. I have always agreed with this statement. But recently, I had an experience that brought this saying to life for me. I have a friend who practices God led giving on a regular basis. This is not something that she brags or boasts about. I actually had no idea that she was doing this until one day her a

One Thing I know For Sure

Today I would like to share a personal experience, one of my 'God stories'. I believe that this experience has a message for all of us. This gave me absolute proof of the one thing that I positively know for sure, that God loves us all more than we can really ever know. The details of this is included in my book, My Extraordinary Walk, in Chapter 15, Extreme Love. This all started with a prayer. I had been feeling unloved by the people around me. I believed that it was

No More Time For Excuses (No more lukewarm)

I usually try to give a message that is upbeat and positive. Something that will encourage believers and motivate their relationship with Christ. My message today will hopefully be just as encouraging. But I am feeling more of an urgency to share this with you today. There are many of us who believe in God, the bible and Jesus Christ. That try to live lives that reflect our beliefs. Lives that exhibit who He is and how much He loves us. There are also those of us who do

Tis The Season To Show Love

The time of year has come that we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. This should be a religious holiday. A time where we celebrate that our Creator loved us enough to send us a Savior. This should be at the forefront of our minds. But the true meaning behind this season is often lost behind the lights, the gifts and the images of Santa Claus. It seems like the enemy has put up a smoke screen. One so thick that many of us can't see through it to the true meaning of this

Don't Stop Praying

Prayer is our communication with God. It is how we acknowledge Him. It is how we show respect and reverence to who He is. It is also how we exhibit our faith. It takes faith and trust to quietly go to the Lord with your head held low, hands pressed together and know that your God has heard your request. In prayer we open our hearts, minds and thoughts to God. Of course He knows everything anyway. But this is more for us to show Him that we know exactly who He is. There

The Show That Changed It All

I was content in the way I was serving the Lord. Following all the rules and guidelines of my church. I paid my tithes. I was an active member of my church. By all accounts I was a good person. But deep down inside I was unsure of where I stood with the Lord. During this time I started watching a show on YouTube called Precious Testimonies. And this show changed my whole life. This is a show where people of all walks of life share their testimonies about God. I watche

When the Door Is Locked- Dream

Excerpt from My Extraordinary Walk, Chapter 12 Dreams, Be Prepared for His Return page 109 This is a dream that was given to me by the Lord. I've shared this dream in a video on FB a while ago. But the message is still pertinent so I am going to share it here again today. This is the only dream that I had that I have shared publicly. I shared this on Facebook a while after I had this dream. On September 15, 2016 I dreamed that I was in a big house, a mansion, I have dream

My Extraordinary Walk Continues

This year has been amazing so far. It all started with me completing a task that I was given. The Lord told me to write a book. I had no clue what I was doing. And I had no idea how it would all come to pass. But I knew what he told me to do. I was obedient and did everything He told me to. And guess what? It all came to pass just as He said it would. I learned a wonderful lesson God will equipt you with everything you need to do exactly what He tells you to do. He

New Life in Christ

A new life is available for each and everyone of us in Christ. Some may ask, what does that really mean? It means exactly what it says. A new life, a life totally different from the one you were born into. A life full of new motivation and purpose. The life that He has planned for you is better than anything that you can plan for yourself. You see we are all sinners. We are all born into bodies of flesh and as we live, we seek to satisfy our physical wants and needs. W

Challenge, Who is God...

God is the creator of our life, this world and everything around us. He is everything and endless in His abilities. He is all powerful, omniscient and omnipresent. He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. We says these things and have heard this our whole lives but what does it really mean? I don't think that 'we' could ever really know or even understand who God really is. God is big, bigger than our minds can imagine. As human bein
