  • First Lady Donece Houston’s “Christian Concept”

    Niecy's Concept Picture
    In your Christian Walk; is it better not to know,than to know?

    The answer is: It is better to KNOW, than not to know!!!

    It would be very easy in our Christian walk if we were able to be excused for the sins that we commit as a result of not knowing any better.

    Unfortunately just not knowing something doesn’t make it ok for us to engage in that act or activity. 

    That excuse is just not acceptable. In Hosea 4:6 (AMP) God states that his people are destroyed because of their lack of knowledge. 
    God has supplied a huge resource for our use so that we can be knowledgeable about what is acceptable to do and what is not. 

    Our main resource to use is the
    Bible (B)- basic (I)-instruction (B)-before (L)-leaving (E)-earth

    The Bible covers all of the instructions that are needed to guide us through our Christian Walk while we are here on this earth. 
    In 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV) it shows us that in order for us to attain the knowledge that is needed to guide us through our daily Christian Walk that we must study so that we can show ourselves proper before God.  

    So in essence, it is up to us to learn and become knowledgeable about what is acceptable for us to do or not to do, so that we can present ourselves correctly before God. 

    *** Be advised that once we have acquired that knowledge and still choose not to do what is morally correct and expected then God will judge us accordingly.

    God Bless you all,
    Have a great week!  

  • “God is Always Thinking About You”

    Bishop' inspirational word week 4 God is Always thinking about you
    Beloved, have you ever had difficulty receiving from God because you thought, “God has better things on His mind,” or “This isn’t that important to Him”? It may be tempting to let your mind wander in that direction, but the truth is that nothing is more important to God than you are!!! Every feature of your life matters to Him. Scripture tells us that He even counts the very hairs on your head. He bottles your tears and holds them as precious.

    Beloved, you’re important to Him, and nothing that concerns you is too big or too small for God!!!

    Today, if you’ve had those discouraging thoughts come to mind, replace them by proclaiming the truth of God’s Word. Declare, “God’s thoughts are precious toward me. I am always on God’s mind. He loves me and I matter to Him.”

    Beloved, as you begin to replace the negative thoughts with the truth, your life will begin to change. You’ll see a transformation in your thinking. You’ll feel His love like you never have before, you will know Him in ways you’ve never known Him before, and you’ll experience His goodness and grace all the days of your life!!!

    “To God Be the Glory!!!”

  • “Rejoicing Promotes”

    Bishop' inspirational word week 4 Rejoicing Promotes.png
    Beloved, when a friend or family member prospers, gets promoted, or experiences an unexpected breakthrough in life, how do you respond?

    There are many people that wonder, “What about me?” Others criticize or say, “It won’t last long.” But if you are not aware, the way you respond to other’s success will determine the level of your own success. Whether you respond in a negative or positive way, you are sowing seeds for your future. That’s why scripture tells us simply to “rejoice with those who rejoice.”

    Beloved, God wants you to be successful. His commands are for your good. He doesn’t want jealousy or conflict to enter your life or rob you of His blessing.

    So if you see someone who is celebrating, celebrate with them. Congratulate them on their success no matter how small or how large it seems in the natural.
    Rejoice with those who rejoice, sow seeds of blessing. This will open the door for victory in your own life in return!!!

    “To God Be the Glory!!!”

    Prayer Call Week 4
    Happy Wednesday Everyone!!!  😀

  • “If It Was Not for God”

    Bishop' inspirational word week 4 If It Was Not for God.pngPraise the Lord Beloved!!! 😀
    Happy Tuesday to Everyone. 😀

    Beloved, if it had not been for the goodness of God, where would you be? Some wouldn’t be alive today. Some would still be addicted and some would be still incarcerated (mentally, physically, morally, or spiritually). If it had not been for God’s favor some would still be struggling, barely making it. You may say, “Well Bishop Houston, I’ve got a long way to go.” And Beloved that may be true, but I want you to take a moment and look back over your life and realize how far you’ve come. The same God that brought you this far, is the same God that has kept you alive, this is the same God that is going to carry you through any difficulty you may be facing. The key is to just start praising and thanking Him for His goodness. 

     Beloved, thank Him for His favor and blessing upon you. Praise precedes the victory!!! Praise brings the walls of opposition down!!! Praise is the invitation for God to intervene on your behalf!!!

     Today, I declare that the goodness of God is all over you!!! He’s directing your steps, and you’re following His lead!!! Beloved, I declare that your best days are ahead, and as you praise Him and thank Him, you’ll move forward into the victory and blessing He has prepared for you!!!

    “To God Be the Glory!!!”

  • “You’re About to Be Overwhelmed!!!”

    Bishop' inspirational word week 4 You're about to be overwhelmed
    Praise the Lord Beloved!!!
    Happy Monday to Everyone. 

    Beloved we all need to raise our level of expectancy!!! It’s like God is saying to us, “You think you’re blessed now?  Let me tell you, you haven’t seen anything yet!!!” And I’m sure God has been good to you, but He also has things for your future that, if He told you right now, would overwhelm your mind. You wouldn’t even believe it.

    Beloved, if you would have told me 38 years ago while I was into worldliness that one day I would be a minister, create a ministry from the ground up,  speak, teach, and preach the word of God to thousands and thousands of people, put out CDs, audio podcasts, have an internet radio program, I would have said, “You’ve totally lost your mind!!!” Back then, I could not even fathom that!!!! Beloved, that’s how God wants to bless you in your future. He wants to overwhelm you with His goodness and with things so wonderful you can’t even comprehend it!!!

    Today, I’m encouraging you to get ready for your increase. This is the time for you to step into so many blessings you can’t even imagine. Keep believing, keep obeying His Word and keep your heart and mind open to what He has for you because you haven’t seen anything yet!!!
