“With Shield or On It”
Bullet Proof Shield
Did you wear your bullet proof shield today? Did you cover your heart and head with scriptures so that everything you faced and everything you did and all you took in was filtered by the Lord first?
You have the power to command the attention of Heaven! God has given us everything we need to overcome obstacles, be healed from disease and walk out a mighty and magnificent destiny! But you’ve got to fight for what you want, because there is an entire world out there operating to take

Delivered
I have five children, but was only able to deliver the first one naturally. My second child I was enduced having not gone into labor on my own so a petosin drip line was given to me and then the doctor said, “let’s wait and see”.
Many hours later I should have been ready to deliver, all the signs lined up and I was “ready”. But something wasn’t right.
My son had trouble getting in the correct position to deliver the entire pregnancy. At one point during the

On Loves Heels
Somewhere around the year 2010 a friend came to me and brought me a DVD of a movie she said she felt compelled of the Holy Spirit to tell me to watch. This friend had done this before and the Holy Spirit confirmed it to me. Those who know me know I don’t “read books” or read anything outside the Bible unless directed by the Spirit, etc. It’s a part of my obedience that has lead to the pure flow of His Voice in my gifts.
Less “me”, more him. Less

The Promise
The “Pinky Promise”…
“As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him.” 1Samuel 17:48
God tends to have a preference for the Impossible. That’s where He likes to work. The impossible seems to be His specialty. In fact, He does His BEST work when the odds are stacked against us.
David met up with a giant.
Moses opposed the leader of Egypt.
Daniel prayed when He was told not to. Esther stepped into territory she wasn’t allowed.
Ruth forsook her birthright for the Identity of God through

Resistance To Go The Distance
Regular, physical activities, such as resistance training have cardiovascular and neuromuscular benefits. You can change your body fat, body weight and overall body composition…sculpting your body to the shape you desire. However, there are some benefits to weight training that may often be overlooked.
Resistance training has a mental component. One must push through pain to achieve the desired goal (a finished rep, circuit, workout). The more you workout, the better you become at dealing with discomfort and becoming somewhat “comfortable with the uncomfortable”. I believe people who practice the discipline

Look Up
“And let us consider each other carefully for the purpose of sparking love and good deeds.” Hebrews 10:24
I wrote the words that follow sometime ago, a few years back I guess, but God will often times use my own words and writing to encourage myself. I must say that one thing I appreciate about the gift of exhortation is I can always encourage myself and usually do. But as encouragers we are often the last to be encouraged because most of the time it doesn’t occur to others we appreciate

False Crosses
People all around are fighting battles that don’t exist.
How about you? Are you anxious, fretting, worrying, doubting? Many people are this time of year. But Gods got you every day of the year.
It’s so important to keep your mind right and bridle it with the Love and Hope of Jesus Christ. Wise Men sought him out, so should you! Don’t allow fear, anxiety, false imaginations, sadness, worry, loneliness, pride, stubbornness or any vice to create a cross God doesn’t intend you to bear!
The Enemy of your soul is in

Gifts
“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”James 1:17
“Lord, Let my words be Christ’s potent drug that reaches into and emerses every narrow crevice of man’s heart. That we might all be intoxicated for HIM and in HIm…the ONE, holy amd true. Amen.”
There really aren’t any words to describe my heart for God and the depth of my friendship with him. However, I have agreed with the Almighty to try to convey everything I

My Old Nemesis
The Lord lean heavy in my heart to share a piece I wrote many years ago. I had to read it myself to recall it’s content which was amazing because I see how much I’ve grown even since writing it. Many struggle with loneliness, especially around the holidays. I seem to know many who have endured tragic and sudden losses of loved ones this year alone. Give your heart rest. Have Hope in God who will out a Spirit of Lonliness to the test. God intends for you to live
