  • Ephesians 6:10-18

    It's Time to Battle
    Beloved, we’re facing a thief we can’t see. We know this thief’s name is Coronavirus or COVID-19, and the thief’s tactics are the same as other thieves: to “STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY” (John 10:10).

    As Christians, we know the realism of spiritual battles. It’s time for us to enforce protection for our weaker brothers and sisters and describe the armor we wear and let them know it’s available to them through Christ Jesus. Explain the Full Armor of God that Christians put on contains the Belt of Truth, the Breastplate of Righteousness, the Gospel of Peace, the Shield of Faith, the Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit. And let them know once the Full Armor of God is appropriately put on have faith that “No Weapons Formed Against Them, Will Prosper” (Isaiah 54).

  • “Giving The Streets Something To Talk About”

    3 16 2020 1 Samuel 17 28
    Praise The Lord Everyone!!! Happy Monday to you!!! ✝️❤️😊

    Beloved the streets talk!!!
     
    Have you ever been a part of the conversation when the streets were talking? How about when the roads were talking, and you were the centerpiece of the discourse? I have, and I have no doubt, I’m still the featured figure spoken negatively about by many today.
     
    Before I returned to my life’s spiritual foundation, I would battle the streets for my reputation. One day while reading and researching the Word of God, I received a revelation. The revelation stung me hard. It showed me the culprit of my battles. What I didn’t take time to realize during my worldly experiences is the majority of my actions came from battling with the unseen. You see, when the streets get to talking, finding the person that initiated the initial negative dialog is about as challenging as the DEA trying to find a drug kingpin. One other thing I came to realize, people on the streets love to gather to see a fight or conflict. Many of them that attend the battle are the ones that (will) set you up, (will) introduce fabricated lies and deception, or (will) back-stab you to see the confrontation. I thank God for His “AMAZING GRACE!!! Today have a changed attitude. I use the negative atmosphere of street talk for my motivation to get closer to God – I get joy studying the Word of God more in-depth and broader to increase my spiritual range. I have always been doubted by family members, relatives, and those I thought were close friends. In this morning’s passage, David’s eldest brother, Eliab, threw some cruel words at him in front of the other Israelite soldiers. How embarrassing it must have been to endure his brother discrediting him. David wisely neutralized the situation. I would have loved to see what Eliab’s expression looked like when they saw David slaying Goliath!!!

    Beloved, there are many of you like David and myself that have felt the pain of mockery, rejection, doubt, and discredit from the people we thought would encourage and motivate us. If you’re in a parallel situation like David, don’t retaliate. Getting revenge isn’t the solution. Be wise and diffuse the situation. Use their mockery, rejection, doubt, and discredit as fuel to succeed even more!!! Go out there and slew your Goliath (alcoholism, drugs, being abusive, cheating, stealing, lying, manipulating, etc.!!! Now you’ve given the streets something to say. Amen? Aaamen.
    ✝️❤️😊
     
    Let Us Pray:
    Dear Heavenly Father, this morning, I come to You asking You to bless us with tolerance and humility when people doubt us and our abilities. Please help us stay peaceful in the face of mockery and give us the wisdom to diffuse the situation consciously. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen and Aaamen. ✝️❤️
     
    I Love you all!!! Have a Blessed Monday and safe week Everyone. ✝️❤️😊

  • “The Battle is not Yours, It’s the Lords”

    2 Chronicles 20:15

    Praise the Lord Beloved.

    Well, it’s Friday and another week is upon us.

    You know beloved, war is a very controversial topic in both the world and the church today.
    This weekend you may come face to face with someone and a battle of some kind may occur. The broad spectrum of views and opinions will bombard each side. Each person feeling, they are winning the war.

    Beloved, war is a natural consequence of sin.
    Some conflicts are fueled by evil intentions and desires, but others are a battle between right and wrong. God hates bloodshed, and He abhors arguments.

    So this weekend Beloved, if you find yourself being lured into some kind of conflict you will do well if you follow Christ. Just search the Scriptures and ask:
    “What does the Lord think about the battle you are about to encounter?”

    Beloved, when you are attacked by an evil person, refusal to fight is not a coward move. That’s what the world wants you to believe. But from the Christian standpoint, it’s a power move. You have just stepped aside and handed the battle over to the Kingdom of God. It’s God’s responsibility to protect the innocent and avenge wrong.

    Beloved, the Battle is not Yours, it’s the Lords.

    Have a blessed weekend everyone.

    Weekend The Battle is not Yours its the Lords
