Renew Mind

Image
 Cleansing Today we read many articles on how we can cleanse our body and look good. But even when you have tried all these formula, how many people can raise their hands and say the feel better? Most of the time, many people body looks great, and yet when you hear the things that come out of their mouth you can be surprised. You soon realize that all is not so well after all, with them. Let me say, none of us is perfect, but we serve a God, who is. And we must try our best to exemplify him through our daily action. What are you saying about yourself, family and problems? Does it line up with the word of God? Are speaking the things that are not as though they were? If not check yourself. The word of God said, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:2). Amen. And in another passage he said, “My son, pay attention to

Freedom

 Renew Thank God our freedom was brought with the price of death through Jesus Christ. Freedom is awesome and when you have a choice to choose life because Christ, it’s a blessing. And When Christ has set us free there is no need to continue to live in bondages. Most of us are aware that generation curses would visit us in our times. And rest assured today, many of us are recipients of these curse. But thank God for the blood of Jesus, which has set us free from all bondages and curses. We must believe that what happen to auntie Jackie, uncle Paul, cousin Edith and grandma Margret, is not our portion. In Jesus name, Amen. Yes, not ours because whom the Son set free, is free indeed from all slavery. There are two types of slavery, mental and physical. But the biggest battle is the mental slavery. For it is true you can take a person physical body out a problem. But if there mindset has not change they will continue to live in captivity. The word of God tells us that we are tran

 Hear my Cry Jesus is your friend!!! There are times we have to do something different to draw God’s attention to our situation. We have to cry out and ask him to help us, especially when we are feeling low or sad. There is an awesome song that goes “pass me not of gentle savior, hear my humble cry, while other thou are calling, please don’t pass me by”. And it’s a powerful song when you sit and think about it. You are asking the Lord to bless you even though others are calling. That’s total faith, when you don’t care what is going on around you but you are focus on the Lord himself. You are focused to point where you are saying, Lord even though you have to help others, help me, don’t pass me without first attending to my prayers or my situation. And as Believers that how we must pray, with that certainty that God, I don’t care who is standing by, help me, because I am your child. You have to do something different every time to draw God’s attention. Don’t get tired of pra

Attentive

 Press Daily we are in a fight to do what is right. We are constantly, face with battling our inner man. And we find ourselves asking where God is. But you must believe he is here with you. There are times when we are faced with many struggles, we sometimes, tend to think that God is punishing us. No my friends, God did not save us to punish us. Rest assured that sometimes the enemy tries to block us and other times, the Lord knows that we are not quite ready to receive our blessings. Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord; 2 Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.3 If you, Lord, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? 4 But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.5 I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope. 6 I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.7 Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing lov

Worship

 Trust The Lord is awesome and wonderful. He is a helper, our present help in time of trouble. He is the Alpha and Omega. He is the great I AM. He is the Beginning and the End.  Sometimes you just have to forget about everything and everyone and worship the Lord. Let him know how much you love and appreciate Him. How much you need Him. How much you are thankful for His grace and mercies. How much you adore Him.  God loves when we acknowledge His presence and speak to Him. Even though we may think He knows what is going on, He loves to hear it from us. He wants to know how we are hurting and how we are trusting in Him. “ Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is

Rebuild

Image
 Strength Always trust in the Lord!!! After every storm a person needs to rebuild. Either, their homes or whatever the storm had destroyed. There are times when we ourselves go through some storms, where the enemy had robbed us of our blessings. However, we cannot sit and cry but we have to strengthen ourselves in the Lord to go and recover. When we look at King David, we see after he came back from fighting a battle, he saw everything he had burned to the ground. His family and his soldier’s family were all taken. This was a divesting event, because he was a man of God. Likewise, many of us are God's people and we sometimes don’t expect negative events to happen to us. Especially, when we are doing the will of God and suddenly a storm hits us. Nevertheless, we must strengthen ourselves and go after what is rightfully ours. While David had lost focus on the storm and began to cried, some of the men promised to stone him. How many of us have lost something that was not ou

Rewrite

Image
 Picture Everything with God is Beautiful!!!  As you wait on your blessings, you have to change your negative story. A narrative helps you to rewrite your story to more positive one. In other words, start to change your thinking to line it up with the word of God. Christ teaches us that we, should “not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect” (Romans 12:2). This simply means that in order for change to take place in your life, it begins in your mind. However, be very careful, for it is the thoughts of our mind that causes us to have a victory or to be defeated. Just as God wants us to be transform by the renewing of our mind, the enemy is trying to fight us for it. (The devil is always a looser). In Jesus name! Amen. You must realize and know that you cannot fight any battle without Christ Jesus being a part of you. Don’t think for one minute

Prayers

Image
 Important Prayers WORKS!!! You might be saying to yourself, I don’t see any changes in my family. Why I am still praying for them. But keep praying, changes are there, you just don’t see it as yet. Let suppose you want a million dollars, do you pray one time and receive it or do you have to go before God and see what He says before you get it. Some of you might have to open a business before you get your million. Others might have to walk one block and speak with Mr. Harry, etc. But whatever you do, you have to put in work, to receive it. It is the same with your family. You have to put in prayers, daily for them. The more you keep them in prayers, the more you are taking them out of the enemy hands. For God words, say prayers of righteous man prevails much. So don’t give up. Don’t give in and don’t stop praying for your loved ones. Trust in the Creator and He will deliver your family out of  bondage , and stronghold. Believe and trust that He will make away. You must k

Rejoice

 Great Keep standing on the promises of the Lord.... We must always stand on the promises of the Lord, even when we don’t want too. The Lord reminds us to “be glad, people of Zion, rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the autumn rains because he is faithful. He sends you abundant showers, both autumn and spring rains, as before. The threshing floors will be filled with grain; the vats will overflow with new wine and oil (Joel 2:23-24). Praise be to his Holy name. Hallelujah! This is God’s promises to us that we must rejoice because he is faithful. As you continue to put your trust in the Lord, know that he will never put you to shame. Even though you might not be where you want to be, keep trusting in the Lord. Know that you will make it, to your destination. Don’t lose hope but focus of your vision to overcome. Be aware that God yes, always means yes. He never withholds any good things from us. Sometimes our blessings may tarry, but know when it is time for

Decrease

 God Increase   God is Perfect!!! Everyone is perfect in his or her own way.  We all do things in way, we each feels is good. However, what we may thing is good, another find faults. Or we ourselves, sometimes thinks we do things better than someone else. Our eyes are quick to find faults and point out the mistakes of others. Yet, we cannot see our own faults. However, we all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. For it is a fact, that none of us is perfect, it is ONLY God, who is, the perfect man. He is blameless and spotless. We can try our best to do thing the correct way, yet there will always be mistakes. When you are rigid, and believe that everything has to be your way or the highway. Then, you will be on that highway by yourself. In order for God to use us, we must decrease, so that he may increase. We have to get rid of our ways and allow him to use us, where he sees fits. If you only see thing through a “tunnel vision” of your eyes, then all you see is a

Acknowledge

 Daily “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct[a] your paths”( Proverbs 3:5-6). It’s so amazing, when God is in control of your life. Things moves much smoother and sometimes faster. We are nothing without him. He is our Father and he always takes care of the needs of those he loves. God is truly amazing. He is a father to the fatherless. He is a mother to the mother-less. He is a brother to brother-less, and sister to sister-less. Whatever you’re needs are, recognize he is the answer to all of it! God does not require much from us. He wants us to acknowledge him in everything we do. Communicate with him daily and a have heart which is open to accept him. How have things been in your life lately? Are you going forward or are you like the children of Israel, who was go around and around in the wilderness?  If you find that nothing is going the way you expect, then Jesus is your an

Reminder

Test There are times in our lives where we must check ourselves and makes sure there is nothing inside of us that is hindering our blessings for ourselves or family members.  Today as I write this post, the Lord taught me something very important. And it was joy that I can post on it because it is God will and purpose. You see my friend God can use anyone or anything to teach us about ourselves and others around us. He does not discriminate but teaches us wisdom. How we choose to be obedient to Him is on us as individual.  For sometimes, the Lord will use us to help others who are in difficult situations. Just as He brought us out, He wants us to bring others out too. Nevertheless, we who the Lord has remove the veil from our eyes, must make sure when we are guiding others we are not guiding and giving direction on what we have experiences, but on how the Holy Spirit is leading. As we grow in Christ Jesus, we as Believers, must check ourselves and make sure the advice we are g

Difficulties

 Trust There are times, when your faith will be tested. As Believers, we say we trust in God, but when storms hits us, that when we will know of much we really trust in Him. Every so often in life, we try to make peace with others around us, because the Bible teaches that we should make peace especially, if it depends upon us. But I must say it is not always easy. Especially, when they person who is fight against you is a loved one. Nevertheless, you must trust in God, even MORE. You have to encourage yourself with His words and promises. You have to learn to stay quiet, until the appropriate time, and then you speak. But know that God will deliver you, because he promises never to leave us or forsake us. None of us, wants to live in confusion with others. But I tell you some people are confusion themselves. They are first hand encounter of what confusion, look like, taste like, and smell like (STINK). Don’t matter how much you make peace with them, it is never good. But my Go

Faith is……

 Trusting “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight” (Proverbs 3:5-6) When we have faith to stand on the promises of God we are saying to God, we trust in you no matter what our situations looks like. Faith is to trust and trust and trust until you can’t trust no more, but still trusting. It means never to give up on your believe that God is faithful and He will do what he promises. However, when we are in the fire, it seems, we are faced with many thoughts to quit, to run, to give in and to give up. But that’s when we have to press forward, knowing that our victory is closer than we thinks. Many times in life I am faced with various trials. Yet, I encouraged myself to stay steadfast on the promises of God. Most time I have to pray and pray without seizing. For I discovered that when they enemy darts seems to be intensified and if not careful I can get burned.  Yet t

Forgiveness

Image
Peace Un-forgiveness is a dangerous thing in the kingdom of God. The word of God teaches us that we must learn to forgive those who has trespass  against us and likewise we must also ask forgiveness of those we trespass against. When we hold on to old things, old hurts, old disappointments and loss hopes and dreams we set ourselves up for failure. We leave no room to see the good and amazing things God has in store or even  what God is doing in our life presently. In fact the  word of God says : 1) “I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more. 26 Review the past for me, let us argue the matter together; state the case for your innocence. Isaiah 43:25-26”.  2) “ For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. Matthew 6:14-15”,  3) "This, then, is how you should pray: " &#

Eyes

 Clean “ Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4  How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?  5  You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye”.(Mathew 7:3). As I re-mediate on this verse, it is very powerful. For it is very true, that we can be this person. In addition, at the same time other people have this problem.  The bible teaches us that we should live in peace and harmony, especially, if it depends on us. Nevertheless, there are times when you are really trying to live in peace, but the oppressor always seems, to present himself and want to take you back down memory lane. And that’s when you have to give it to Jesus. Have ever being around others whether, it is your family, friends, co-workers, spouse, etc. and all they see is

New Day Jesus NEVER fails.... We are more than a conqueror, when we are standing on the word of God and we put our  entire   trust in the Lord.  Everyday it’s a battle, and we must not give in or give up to the negative situations and circumstances that surround us.  God never brought us this far, to leave us. No my friend, he is not a God to promise and not fulfill. His yes, means yes with an Amen. Amen to believing and trusting in him. He has calmed every storm. You have to believe and let it be rooted in your heart and spirit, that God has already won your battles. Even if you feel down, pick yourself up, and dare to believe that every struggles must go in the name of Jesus. We may endure weeping for the night, but joy always comes in the morning. Lift your eyes to hill from where you strength comes, know your strength comes from the Lord.  Despite your current situations, still believe and trust in him. Worship and adore him. Know there is always a season for everything.  A

 Beauty Patience is truly divine, when you are waiting on the Lord. The beauty about patience, is when your complete trust is in the Lord, alone you know that he will always rescue you, despite, what your natural eyes is seeing. Sometimes, while waiting the time seems like it’s not moving and other times it is moving too fast. Nevertheless, God is always on time. Today, I give God praise because he did not give to me, my blessings when I thought I need it. Rather it was on his time. Had I receive my blessings too earlier, I would have missed his true power being manifest in my life. I would be lost in the world without any hope for my future. However, when Christ Jesus is in your live, it is with a certainty that you can always face tomorrow. Can you look back and see how God’s grace has brought you through some situations, you thought was hopeless? As I look back at my old life, I can see, it was God’s grace and mercies that keep me going, for so long and I thank him. There w

 Trust God is Faithful The Lord we serve is a God who is organize, and he is not of confusion. How many of you are currently in some type of problems? Whether it is on your job, school or home, it seems to be some type of conflict. But you must realize these disputes are not of God, for the Lord we serve is a God of order and flow. When Jesus is in your life things will begin to flows, the way he sees fit. It’s like when you look at a river, you see the water flowing down stream. And it is so, with Christ Jesus, things always flow nicely. However, there are times when the water is raging. The water represents your situation or problems. It is making noises, too loud for you to handle. Now you find yourself asking, what I am going to do. You ask the Lord, how long should I wait?  Yet it seems, like the Lord is not listening and you are going under. After you take matters in your own hands, you realize he had heard your cry. You will find that you had moved to quickly, instead
