You Are Called To Reign

People struggle with that fact that God has given all of us the ability to reign and conquer. Somehow we have strayed away from this truth. We are comfortable with being average and not pushing ourselves to live in our full potential. Being consumed by depression, anxiety, a feeling of self-worthless. Believing the lies of the enemy but never wanting to believe and meditate on the truth that God has placed in us. I too have struggled with these illusions of false truth, that has robbed me of my happiness, joy, and worth. In fact, anxious is a feeling of worry that hasn't even occurred yet. So we are being intoxicated by a disaster that hasn't even happened. But somehow we react to it as it did. Even as I write it and ponder on the previous sentence, I am saying to myself, how crazy? 

However, the truth is we do it and we do it on a regular basis. Totally ignoring Christ and the precepts he has taught us by living them out. Jesus was deeply moved and depressed at a point of time and overcame each time. He not only tells us how to be an overcomer he showed us too. I want you to take a look at this scripture where Jesus was depressed and how he responded. (Luke 22:41-45 NKJV And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and prayed, saying "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not my will, but Yours, be done." Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And being in agony (in pain, stress, worrying), He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground. When He rose up from prayer and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow.) 

This scripture gives us a vivid illustration of how Jesus was feeling before being nailed to the cross, being deeply moved by the situation he prayed and he prayed some more and he trusted God and took up his cross. He showed us how we should respond. He didn't ignore his feelings and act like they weren't present but through prayer and faith, he kept moving and completing his task here on earth.
Our response to our trials and tribulations should be the same. To pray and let God know how we feel and he will strengthen us like he did Jesus through his angel, and he will deliver us like he did  Jesus for death couldn't even hold him. Now, remember this when you are facing things. Stop masking and acting like the feelings aren't there or reacting to those feelings in a negative way, instead, take the route Jesus took.

We are fully equipped to stand against all of the wiles of the enemy we have an anointing power that resides in us, which is the Holy Spirit. This power has given us the ability to have power and dominion and therefore we reign and will always defeat the enemy. We give the devil to much credit he can't control our response to things, that power truly belongs to us!

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 ...
