Reflections of Life

“For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭139:13-14‬ ‭KJV‬ Are you struggling with finding your self worth in God? Let me help. Let’s talk about how God sees your internal and external beauty. Let’s talk about the status level on this earth he gave you. Let’s talk about how God planned for you from birth to eternal life. I hope you’re excited for this lesson. I sure am! First let’s just honor God! Before you continue to read this lesson, take a minute to thank God for who he is, what you mean to him, where he has you, and where he is taking you. What an amazing blessing to constantly be on the mind of God. He is shaping and molding us into our best yet. Often we, hope to be constantly on the mind of our mates or friends. That’s wonderful as well, but when God is thinking of us, you know for sure his thoughts are a...

“and Jehovah will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in dry places, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭58:11‬ ‭ASV‬‬ Have you ever been in a dry place in your life? Where things were just not coming together as you prayed or hoped? You’re feeling stressed because you are trying to make ends meet or goals come to pass, causing more frustration to yourself. I need you to slow down and stop for just a minute to breathe. This is the time you pray and ask God for guidance. Maybe the steps you are taking and things you are doing are not what God wants you to do right now. If  you are unsure about the matters or confusion is occurring, that may not be the order of God for your life. Our Father is a God of peace. Worry can cause us to sometimes make rash decisions without first receiving confirmation from God to move forth. We act out of fear, anxiety, or anxiousness. God has never fa...

“And this righteousness will bring peace. Yes, it will bring quietness and confidence forever. My people will live in safety, quietly at home. They will be at rest.” ‭‭ Isaiah ‭32:17-18‬ ‭NLT‬‬ You know you are moving according to God’s plan when distractions begin to enter your life left and right. This is the time you press harder in the Word of God. This is the time you pray more. This is the time you fast and get quiet before the Lord to receive directions to guard yourself. This week was long and a little stressful. I had three people from my past reach out to me. Surprised! Jesus cover me, is what I immediately prayed. Thank God for voice mail! I immediately blocked their numbers. You see it wasn’t about being cruel or revenge. This was to guard my heart. Those individuals were and are no good for me. God has been working in my life. Satan knows when God is elevating you to your next level. He will use anything or anyone to stop you. Satan wants to come between my relationship...

“But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me. I, the Lord, have spoken!” Isaiah‬ ‭54:17‬ ‭NLT‬‬ Isaiah 54:17. This is shouting news! Let your enemies talk! Let them persecute you! You deceased so that Jesus can increase in you. See Yourself Through The Eyes of Jesus. Opposition from The Enemy is YOUR KEY to the Kingdom of Heaven. Those who hate Christ will hate you too. His enemies will rise up against you in and through your submission to God.  It is a sign you are moving in the right direction. Do not give up when they rise! Do not fear or run when they rise! Jesus already declared you a conqueror, victorious, fearfully, and wonderfully made. From the beginning, before God created you, and blew life into you, you were, protected, equipped with spiritual gifts, and given an assignment. It is o...

“No! The Scriptures say, ‘People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4 NLT Hi guys! It’s Friday! I hope you all had an amazing, peaceful, and productive week. I’m hanging in there as well. I did not  post yesterday. Forgive me.. God is doing some amazing things in my life. Super busy! I’m very excited! Sometimes as you all may experience, there is not enough time in the day to get everything done. However, we must continue to press forward. When God wants our attention, we definitely should surrender to his request. It’s it only for our benefit… Okay… so today we are talking about the power of fasting. What is fasting? What does it mean to you? According to the layman’s bible dictionary, “Fasting is the practice of giving up eating and drinking for a specific time, generally as part of a religious ritual in times of peril. Jesus and Elijah each prayed for forty days. (Matthew 4:2, I Kings 19:8)”. Some people fast from shopping,...
