Rejoice When He Fights For You!

Rejoice When He Fights For You!

It amazes me how I teach the word of God and apply the word to my life for the most part but still can fall short of my own advice at times. I know many have but I just might be the one who is honest enough to admit it. It is not something that I am proud of but it is something that I must share. I believe transparency will always be the best teacher in life. In fact, the bible is based on transparency moments that have to catapult us all into greatness if we apply it. For me, my shortcoming happened last weekend. I had a family member who is filled with anger and malice do something that could have landed me in some serious trouble with authorities. Honestly, she was so gun ho on getting me in trouble that she forged someone's name to file a false report. I know insane right? The good news is that I caught it and it did not manifest. I know some is guessing by now, so where is Fallon's shortcoming? Here it is! 

I was so caught up in what she did and how much it hurt me that I didn't fully rejoice in the fact that God did not allow it to prosper. He kept his word. (Isaiah 54;17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rise against you in judgment you shall condemn, this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord.) My God is an awesome God. I literally lived this scripture and instead of rejoicing, like a fool, I was in my feelings for what she tried to do. Don't get me wrong we are human and yes we have feelings. The bible teaches us not to be led by our feelings but by The Holy Spirit. I should have been shouting from the rooftops hallelujah the enemy didn't prevail. I did say thank you, Jesus, but I kept on talking and dwelling on what she did and what could have happened. When God steps in, it is no need for the could have. He demolished it and that should be what is praised and discussed if needed.

I did have to repent and ask God for forgiveness and I had to realign my thoughts and stay focused. It is all designed to distract me from the purpose and we can't allow that. God has called us to win and he shows himself to us daily. We have to just open our eyes and smell the grace (smile). I like that metaphor. Let my shortcoming teach you on how to rest in your victory. For me, this was a major victory and I didn't truly enjoy it until now. I don't know about you but I just love the Lord and his grace and mercy. I do want to mention that I did pray for the perpetrator who happens to be my family member. She needs it the devil has her such in a cloud that to hurt me she was willing to put herself in a situation to go to jail, hello, forgery is illegal. The enemy gets desperate and he just dives into mayhem, such a shame to witness. We are not to gloat over the fact that she played herself but we are to rejoice that God protected me.

AFFIRMATION: I Will Rejoice Always In The Lord!

No Matter What!

No Matter What! Life will throw you some major curveballs just to see how you will respond to it and God will seem silent testing you to see if you have enough faith in him. To be honest the whole ordeal can seem overwhelming. You may feel like me at times and want to pull all your hair out. Confused and scared to make the wrong decision, this is the moment I suggest you breathe and ponder like I do. I stop everything and pray and wait to get revelation on what to do. I have learned from Abraham and Sarah that when I feel hopeless and inpatient not to make a swift decision that can birth an Ishmel. The anointing does come with a price despite what churchy folks try to say.  I say this because now you are being attacked by the devil and his minions. You're fighting flesh that all of the sudden resurfaces hard and your emotions seem out of wack as well when you are pursuing purpose. I may not have all the answers, but one thing, I am confident in,  Jesus is real and ...

Your Life Can Change In Seconds!

Your Life Can Change In Seconds Close your eyes, inhale and exhale now open your eyes, that is how fast everything in your life can change for the better. We serve a God that is a waymaker and a miracle worker. It only takes one word from him. However, I must be honest with you. If you are not prepared for the abundance that the suddenly will cause then you are doomed. You see, I feel like we should be preparing ourselves for what we are praying for. We should be confident and educated in what we are desiring from God. Preparation will forever be the key to our success. I want to encourage you to be praying for wisdom and understanding so you will know how to handle whatever comes your way. This will allow the blessing to never be a burden. As your life changes in seconds, you will be able to carry the weight of the miracle. I think about Paul and Silas chained and bound in jail as they sang hymns, the prison doors opened. (Acts 12;3-19) You see that was a sudden breakthrou...

Release The Grief!

Release The Grief! The pain that we endure by people we love is the most painful experience ever. I don't know about you, but I can feel it in my bones and my heart aches when experiencing this kind of pain. Being hit from a blind spot not seeing it coming from that individual. I don't know if it hurts more because we didn't expect it or because who the oppressor is, either way, it hurts. As I am growing more each day spiritually, I am learning it cost me more to dwell on it. I push myself to show that person love and not the phony cordial type, I mean the same ounce of love before they offended me. People are not obligated to treat me in an exact manner that I expect. That is my expectation for them, not theirs. Don't get me wrong I expect respect but when a person offends me, most of the time it's because they didn't do something that I wanted them too. Some cases, for some people, it can be very different and traumatic circumstances. Still, when you think ...
