I just want to share this amazing song sung by Bethel Music and Brandon Lake called Too Good to Not Believe. I am so into this song right about now and just wanted to encourage you with this thought today… We as Christ believers must believe in the Wonder working miraculous-ness of God. It takes a lot of faith to simply accept Jesus as Saviour and Lord, but as we continue to walk in our Salvation through this journey of Faith, we must not let out faith dwindle but rather, we must purpose to cultivate it by continuously meditating God’s Word, and putting what we believe into PRACTICE. Faith without works is dead, but a Faith that is experiences by the works we choose to perform by Holy Spirit inspiration is what produces unfathomable results.
As Christians, I’ve been thinking about why Wonders and Signs aren’t following us like how they followed the Apostles when they were commissioned by Christ to spread the Word of God to the nations. We need to be of the same mind of the apostles and seek to function with the same level of expectant faith to see God work miracles for us and through us. If we want to see a great dispensation of the Holy Spirit functioning in the World, we need to increase our revelation and expectation for Miracles that God wants to perform through us by choosing to seek God’s will for our lives purposefully. When you seek Him, you will find Him. May we choose to Seek God diligently and find Him.
Here are some scriptures to help you mediate on this today:
Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [a]dead?21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [b]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [c]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
James 2:18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faithwithout your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
I just felt led to share this amazing video message from Joe Kirby from Off the Kirb Ministries. He is such a great evangelist and I just feel like this word that he shared was so relevant and compelling that it needed to be shared right now with anyone subscribed to my Blog. I pray that this Post blesses someone today. God Bless You Everybody! 🙂
I just wanted to post this amazing song sung by Travis Greene and Todd Dulaney called Easter. I loved the beat of this song because it has a bit of an African Beat and Vibe to it. This Easter, we do remember that our Saviour did suffer, died on the Cross as a propitiation for our Sins, and three days later Resurrected from the dead in fulfillment of Scriptures. This same Jesus is alive and that is why this is cause for celebration in that we can all be redeemed by accepting Him as our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Son of God, He is the Christ, He is King. None of us can come to the Father (God) except through the Son, Jesus Christ. That is why it is important that every non-believer accepts Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour over their lives. Jesus is the Door to Salvation. So as you listen to this Song, just remember that Salvation comes when you believe that Jesus is in fact The Way, The Truth and the Life in your life. I pray that this song blesses you today. God Bless You Everybody! 🙂
14 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many [a]mansions; if it were not so,[b]I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Hebrews 12:2 (New International Version)fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
7 Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who ever came [a]before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. 9I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved,and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
I just want to post this song by Calvin Hill Feat. Tyshan Knight, Eli Ahmad & Devon Murrill called Elevators. This song is my jam right about now. I think that the focus for this year for all of us is to draw closer to God with all that we have. A day without God, makes one weak. We need to invest our energies feeding our spirits with the Word of God (The Bible). Some people aren’t able to go to Church because of the current situation, but if you have a Bible in your home, then don’t simply wait for a Sunday online service to feed your Spirit with the Truth that is contained in His Word. Don’t feed your spirit with bad news that’s constantly being bombarded by mainstream media; in particular, the NEWS. You need to learn as Christians how to Guard your Hearts and minds during this period of time. You can’t afford to lose hope when we have hope in Jesus. I do believe that the current state of affairs the world is facing with the Coronavirus pandemic will end at some point this year. We just need to pray more to the Lord to intercede and intervene on our behalf over this situation. We should rest our hope in the Lord. So today, as you listen to this song, focus on the purposing on getting closer to the Lord this year. I believe that this is indeed pertinent for every Believer to be focusing on doing this year. I pray that this song blesses your spirit. God Bless You Everybody! 🙂
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.
I’ve decided to make my blog easier to navigate by creating a page with links to popular posts based on 3 categories. Therefore, I will eliminate the long menus I have on order to make it easier for others to navigate my site. Keep in mind that I started this blog in 2011 just for fun and WordPress has been going through so many changes that some videos and pictures may have broken links as WordPress kept evolving. I admit, I was kind of lazy to do this because I had too much content created over the years that I never thought about making it easier for others to find stuff until a reader suggested I do this recently. Hopefully, this has made things a little easier.
Because there is just so much content that I have written up over the years, I am only linking up and capturing the popular posts for everyone’s convenience. Hope you like this list Y’all! Thank God I’m done with it at last. I should have done this a long long time ago. Stay Blessed Peeps!
Today, I want to post a song sung by Isly called Secret Place because this song is in my spirit right about now. As I meditate, I believe that this year will be a year where we all need to seek God stronger than ever before. We need to reverence God more and seriously seek Him on a serious level this year. I believe that during this period of Lock-downs and Quarantine, people can be ignited at full blast with the gifts of the Spirit if they seek Him diligently right now. Frankly, we should be seeking the Lord’s face all our lives if we are Christians, so why wait when you can start pursuing to grow deeper in the knowledge of the Lord right now? The world is changing and the thing is this though… there is nothing new under the sun as far as the Lord is concerned, but through His Son Jesus, He can make things new.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.
Revelation 21:4-6– 4And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” 5Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said [a]to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” 6 And He said to me, “It[b] is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts.
I believe that unprecedent miracles will take place this year if we believe for it. The Lord is looking for willing Sons and Daughters who will work His Word boldly in 2021. Are you willing to be Bold for Christ this Year? 2020 showed us how easy it was to be conditioned to set our hearts and minds at a frequency that tuned into bad news only. But as Christians, we need to renew our mindset at this hour and set our hearts to align at God’s frequency which is FAITH. Do not be overly consumed by FEAR, because fear is a language…and as Christians, we need to tune into the Holy Spirit’s frequency of FAITH. How do we tune into that frequency? The fact is… it’s already in His Word… the answer is this:
Hebrews 11:6 – But without faith it is impossible to pleaseHim, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and thatHe is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
2 Timothy 1:7– For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of powerand of love andof a sound mind.
Psalm 119:148 – My eyes are awake through the night watches, That I may meditate on Your word.
Joshua 1:8– This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it.For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
Psalm 1:2 – But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night.
James 1:22– But be doersof the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
Purpose to Meditate on God’s Word – THE BIBLEthis Year
You need to meditate on God’s Word daily and actively Seek Him to Observe and act on God’s Word by FAITH. It’s not enough to be Hearers of the Word if we as Christians have no intention of being Doers of His Word. God is going to reward those that DO. So this Year, focus on being a DOER of His Word rather than succumbing to the noise of the World’s fears that distract you from operating by FAITH. I pray that as you listen to this song, may it fuel your spirit with Hope, Love and FAITH for this year. God Bless You Everybody!
As you know, I have been on a Hiatus from blogging for quite some time and have decided to blog when I feel led to say something. This year has been a whirlwind of things happening to people I know and also with what’s going on in the entire world.
I came across this video from Grace for Purpose’s YouTube. I feel like this message is appropriate as a meditation for what we should all learn from this year of 2020 as we have reached the close of this year.
2021 maybe a new year, but the battles we face will still remain the same. The question is, how will we face these battles in the coming new year? Hopefully, with a renewed, sober and vigilant posture is my prayer. If this year taught the world anything… it’s not so much about the devastation that has been caused by the disease we know as the Coronavirus (COVID-19)… It should be the fact that we all need to recognize that we need God more than ever before to intervene in this seemingly overwhelmingly impossible situation.
As I ponder on this, I can only think that as Christians, we need to step our game up in prayer y’all. Have we fallen asleep by being distracted by bad news all around us? If anything, we need to change our posture from sleeping sheep to warfaring warriors for the upcoming New Year of 2021.
Here are some verses of Scripture to meditate on that have been in my spirit regarding how we should proceed with 2021:
Isaiah 43: 8-13 8 Lead out those who have eyes but are blind, who have ears but are deaf. 9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Which of their gods foretold this and proclaimed to us the former things? Let them bring in their witnesses to prove they were right, so that others may hear and say, “It is true.” 10 “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me. 11 I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior. 12 I have revealed and saved and proclaimed— I, and not some foreign god among you. You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God. 13 Yes, and from ancient days I am he. No one can deliver out of my hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”
In the book of Revelation, it talks about 7 different types of Churches:
I urge the Church of Jesus Christ to be likened to the Faithful Church. We need to go back to our first Love people! Right now, we’ve been feeding our spirits with bad news… but have not selected to open up the Bible that is the Book that holds the GOOD NEWS we need to persevere and endure to the end for our Faith in Jesus Christ. We need to humble ourselves and pray and seek God’s face, and He who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly, is able to overthrow all the evil schemes of the enemy that is being unleashed on our world right now. Who will remember the Name of the Lord? Who will call out to Him? I pray that it is us, the Christians!
The Holy Spirit has been impressing upon my heart and my spirit regarding the Power of the Praying Church. Just because we can’t gather in the way that we would like due to the current Coronavirus situation…doesn’t mean that you stop praying as the Body of Christ! What do you think the persecuted church did in the New Testament… did they simply throw up their hands in the air in surrender and forsake the Lord…? HELL NO! They did not… Nothing could stop the persecuted church from continuing to preach the Gospel of Truth to the Nations. In fact… we should all learn from this if anything. The Word of God still needs to be preached to the Nations and to those that do not know Him.
Put on the Full Armor of God!
Ephesians 6:10-18 – The Whole Armor of God – Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. …
Now more than ever, we need to make our presence known in the World and make it obvious that the answers we seek to overcome this crisis lies in the hands of the Believers. Those that are called by His Name, if they simply humble themselves and pray, God will deliver all of us from the hands of our enemies and will bring practical solutions from the least likely of sources to all that we are facing today in the least likely chosen vessels that will stand in the gap and intercede for the Faith.
2 Chronicles 7:14 – if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
We are being heavily bombarded with distracting bad news that we have failed to see that our overconsumption of this bad news has led us to fail and become more complacent that we have not chosen to humble ourselves and kneel before the King of kings who is able to overthrow the plans of our Adversary the Devil. Church of Jesus Christ, it is time to humble ourselves and pray, and Seek the Lord’s face NOW! When we humble ourselves before the Lord of Hosts, that is when He will hear from Heaven, and He will heal the land, Amen! We need to do this NOW AMEN!
The song that comes to my mind when I think about this is from Fred Hammond called If My People. I pray that as you listen to this song, we will all remember the power of God that still exists in our lives so that we can call out to Him to intervene on our behalf if we just look to the Author and Finisher of our Faith as we collectively humble our posture before the Almighty God that is able to Heal our bodies and Heal the Land. God Bless You Everybody and let 2021 be a victorious turn-around type of year for all People, Amen!
It’s been a minute since I last posted anything on here. Honestly, it’s been a while and I have decided to take a break and will sporadically post some encouragement whenever I get the chance. To My dear friend Dulcinea, this post is just for you. She is a fellow blogger friend that has noticed I’ve been MIA (missing in action) from the blog scene so I’m writing this inspirational post for my friend. 🙂 Hope you love it!
I have two songs that have been in my spirit for the past couple of days and they are new songs that will bless your spirit. The first song is from Marvin Sapp called Undefeated. I feel that with the whole world dealing with COVID-19 and the after-effects of how it has changed our world, we need to remember to still remain anchored in the the hope that we have in Jesus Christ. I know that some children are coming back to school in Ontario, Canada (where I live) and possibly other parts of the world so we shall see how this whole thing will pan out, but I want people to remember that no matter whatever is going on, we need to have a sound mind about these type of things.
John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome theworld.”
Remember the promises of God for your Life and meditate on His Word that says:
Isaiah 46:4 (New International Version)Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
So let our confession be this, People of God!:
Jeremiah 17:14 – Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
My question to you this day is, is the Lord the One you are praising today during your circumstances? We need to learn to Exalt God above our Circumstances and not magnify our problems. Is this an easy thing to do? Absolutely Not… but I want us to know where our help comes from no matter our situation. We can look to doctors, politicians, teachers, pastors for help…but who will remember the Name of the Lord? We need to Look upward to the Author and Finisher of our Faith. I just want people to remember this as we get through this year. If I have learned anything about the Year 2020… it’s to remain steadfast and to continue to fix my eyes on Jesus no matter what my circumstances look like. Faith is fuel for the Christian, so don’t starve it in this season... feed it even more by meditating on His Word (The BIBLE) even more so that you do not succumb to fear but remain steadfast and strong in Faith. I pray that as you listen to these songs, they will bless your Spirit and help you to fix your eyes on Jesus, AMEN!
The last song I have to bless your spirit is by Jonathan Traylor called Purpose Over Pleasure.I pray that these songs minister to your Spirit today.
I just wanted to post this awesome song that’s in my spirit right now called Free by Marie Love feat. Jeremiah Paltan. This song is upbeat so I love the percussion instruments in this song. You are no long a slave to sin when you have Jesus. Bondages are broken by the power of His Name – JESUS. Honestly, when it comes to spiritual warfare, I find the the most important battle one faces is one that comes to attack your mind and your heart.
Proverbs 23:7 – For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you.
I’ve said this before but many people think that they think with their brains…but I believe we often think with our hearts. That’s why the Bible is emphatic about guarding our hearts and minds.
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Meditate on These Things
8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.
As you listen to this song, focus on renewing the spirit of your mind to think on things that are worth meditating on. You need to meditate on the Word of God to guard your heart from things that cause you to stress, fear, feel anxious etc etc. Think on the things that allow you to experience the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. I find it easier to calm down when I listen to worship music because it allows me to keep my focus on God when I’m bombarded with negative thoughts. What you spend your time meditating on will ultimately become your reality, so that is why it is important to practice some level of introspection to ensure that you are mediating on the things that align to God’s Word and will of your life. I pray that as you listen to this song, it will bless your spirit. God bless you Everybody! 🙂
Just had to drop this song by Tye Tribbett called We Gon’ Be Alright! I just feel like posting awesome songs that are uplifting my spirit in this season of Social Distancing. I just want to put my trust in God that now matter what’s going on, we need to Trust that all things work together for the good of those that love the Lord. We won’t know when this whole thing will resolve itself, but I do know that God is the Author and Finisher of my faith, so I will fix my eyes on Jesus and meditate on that which is of good report and edifying to the soul and you should too. I pray that this song ministers to your spirit today. God Bless You Everybody! 🙂
Romans 8:28 – And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
1 John 5:14-15 AMP– This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him.
Hebrews 12:2– looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
