Let Him Know

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer. As I sit here thinking about how much my male friends and family members tell me they are un appreciated by their women I have a heartfelt desire to charge my sisters with the job of congratulating him, and let him know how much he means to you every day. Men have a need to feel love and appreciation just as women. Let him know you cherish his love for you. Let him know that you adore all the small things he do. Like taking out the trash, helping the kids with homework, cooking dinner for you too. Rubbing your back at night to help you sleep. Gently kissing your forehead when you wake up, or massaging your feet. How he always remembers to buy your favorite juice or yogurt when he makes a grocerty store run. . How he looks at you when you make love. Letting you know you are still the one who makes his heart flutter, and skip to a happy beat. Let him know you enjoy his touch, his kiss, his protection, his love. Edify him sometimes, rub his feet or his back. Let him know as his woman you will always have his back. Let him know that the love you share is sacred and like no other. Don’t allow the enemy to creep in and provoke him to begin to look for another lover. Let him know you pray for him daily and always want him to grow in his relationship with God. Let him know you realize that as a black man that times can be hard. So when he steps in his home he feels like a king, he feels loved, and honored to sit on the throne Let him know he is not doing this thing alone. Let him know he is a kind, good looking, and attractive man. Let him know that your heart is and will always be in the palm of his hands. Pray with him daily so that your bond can grow. My sister I want you to always let him know.

I Am Slave

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer. Day in Day out you work for others, never able to take time out for rest. Running from our job to the next. At day's end your tired and aching body is made to lay on a bed you barely visit for resting. You ask God to deliver you from anxiety, stress, turmoil, and depression. Not realizing that he has given you the tools to bring about your own blessing. Stop being a slave to society, the world, and man. Know that your peace lies in your own hands. Trying to keep up with Jones's day in and day out. While your moral fiber is pimped and turned inside out. Is that new car, furniture,clothing, or shoes truly what makes up you? Or is the outward man trying to cover up the dead soul that is within. I am slave is what your soul says every time you deny the truth. I am slave to the world, my emotions, my friends, as well as my sin. I am Slave. To my looks, idolizing the rapper, singer and models in the magazines. Starving yourself to get a figure and physique that is fake an airbrushed by a graphic artist. I am Slave to the demons from my past. If you follow God's direction you would not keep failing the same test. Learn to gird your loins with the breast plate of truth, and the belt of righteousness. Shod your feet with the preparation of the Gospel so that during tough times you will be able to stand. I am Free. Whole and Complete. Slave No More.

This Flesh is On Fire

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer. This Flesh is on Fire This Flesh will make you desire the perverse, pornographic, pedophiliac, pontification,of a painful polluted urge that will take you higher and higher into a world of liars. This Flesh is on Fire…. And once you feed it, it will require. More and more of your time, your mind, your should, until it destroys dreams, direction, destiny until you have no control. In I Corinthians 7:8-Paul said that it is better to marry than to burn with passion. However you keep playing with this fire, as it continues to harass your sleeping, and waking hours. When will you realize you have submitted all your Power to a person, a place, an action, an appendage, or some breast. Transform your mind,and accept nothing less than being a whole person. Mind, Body, and Spirit. Beware of this Fire do not play with it. You have your hand pressing uplifted in the Spirit. Your toes and feet flat footed in Hot Lava that is gradually devouring your ankles, knees, hips and you remain up in it. Repent and get a relationship with God. Lay Prostrate before Him and finally submit it. Let transparency and honesty shine around your neck like an immaculate sapphire. Finally being true to yourself and God and admit. This Flesh is On Fire.

His Touch is Real

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer. His Touch is real, his touch can heal. Transform,deliver,anoint,manifest destiny,order,position,and transfer a live that is real. In a world where there is false love, false friends on FaceTime,as you race against time; to learn , hear,build a life that has no reason or rhyme continually sacrificing your flesh on the altar of sin. Trust His word,Trust His love, His touch is real

God Help Me Out

I've reached the end of my rope.
Man tells me that I should give up all hope.
God I cry to you with tears of sorrow and regret.
God I am lost and cannot figure a way out.
God I need you to step into my situation and Help Me Out.
Help me find the right direction to take in this trial.
Help me to stop feeling depressed and regain my joy and my smile.
You tell me in your word that "Ye thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil"
Help me to navigate around the demons in human form that try to manipulate and deceive me.
Past trials have shown me that this Valley will soon turn into a Mountain Peak for me.
Help me to focus on your word and encouragement until I reach the top of my Mountain and can clearly see.
The enemy only wants to make me lose my mind,take my life, and steal my will to praise and shout.
God I need you to speak peace into my heart, and Help Me Out.

If I Let Go

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer.
If I let go would you be there for me.  If I let go will you give me internal peace. If I let go will I learn to smile again. Lord I wanna know if I let go?  All this heartache is making me feel like a weight is on my head. Many sleepless nights, tossing and turning in my bed. I cannot do this all alone, I need your help to carry on.  If I let go.
If I let go, would you be there for me? If I let go would you give me eternal peace? If I let go would you heal all my hurt and pain? If I let go will I learn to be happy again? Lord, I need to know, If I let go?

Be Patient and Have Faith

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer.,

What in the world is going on? It seems like all of Hell has broke loose in my life. My car is having some kind of mental breakdown mechanically. With all of the education and experience I have I can't even pay someone to give me a full time job. I'm in a financial hold,on a fixed income, and forced to depend on others for food, housing and money.  As a woman who has been on her own and living outside of her parents home since her 20's its humbling for me to have to return and be in the position that I am in.  If I did not know God, I would have allowed what I am experiencing to destroy me mentally an spiritually.  However, I have faith that what God has for me is greater than my current situation, an if I keep my eyes on Him he will bless me abundantly.  Over 20years of salvation and walking with God has shown me that when the storms of life are raging that God is about to show up.  In the book of Hebrews Paul gives us numerous examples of how having faith in times of turmoil helps keep the man an woman of God focused.  When you experience setbacks in life you have to have faith. Continue to walk as a servant of the Lord, and allow God to work things out.  Therefore, when people say to me,"girl you need to be depressed, upset, an acting crazy right about now".  I let them know that when the Enemy of God starts messing, I am next in line for a Blessing.  Or as my best friend Marcus said to me,"Spirit sometimes God has to remove everything we have, so that He can build us back up". Consequently, as I endure my current lesson in fatih, my lesson in submission, my lesson in learning to lean and depend on others, I now know that I dont have to always do things by myself.  I rejoice in the fact that God thinks I am worthy enough to endure this trial an be a living witness to others that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Therefore, when it seems that all Hell has broke loose in my life. I will flex my intercession muscles an go to God in prayer. I have faith tht He will deliver me in due season. He has done it before and He will do it again.

Act Like You Know

Romans 12:verse 12. Rejoice in Hope, Patient in Tribulation, Continuing Steadfast in Prayer.

We all have something that God has done for us in our walk with him be it a bill getting paid and you did not know where the money came from, a family member getting healed from death, disease, or illness. God restoring your Peace, and bringing you out of a pit of depression and suicidal ideations. God has shown his hand of favor and love to us in some way, but now that things are good we are blessed and highly favored. We have forgotten where he brought us from.  Forgetting God's goodness and mercy in our lives is a dangerous thing.  It can lead us to becoming spiritual snobs and pias.  It can be damaging to new christians in Christ who have yet to truly experience the favor of God. These babes in Christ have yet to develop strong faith, and spiritual maturation. It makes their journey even harder when they see all the church members riding out of the church parking lot in their Benz, Lexus, and Denali jeep's as they walk to the bus stop with not even a nod in their direction from the drivers, or an offer to drive them home, or at least to the next bus stop. What is my point? Basically men and women of God we need to act like we know. Act like you know who woke you this morning, act like you know who blessed you with your job, act like you know who gave you your beautiful saved wife or husband, act like you know who made it possible for you to have your beautiful home,and car. Most importantly act like you know who saved you from the pits of hell when the enemy wanted to destroy your mind and sanity, and rob you of your peace,and rob you of your place in Heaven.  There are people in church who are literally dying on the vine. They come to church every sunday feeling just as confused,depressed, and rejected as they did when were in the world.  Why are they dying on the vine? Too many fake, and phony spirits in the house of God, and God is not pleased with it. It is time for us to be transparent. Let someone into your personal space so that they can see the goodness of God not just in your material possessions but in your actions.We quote Romans Chapter 12 verse 9  all the time because it is the perfect definition of love;however,how often do we strive to be the example of God's love on  a daily basis. You never know who is watching you on the streets while your giving the guy in the car next to you the finger for cutting you off. You never know who is watching you while your cussing out the cashier at Walmart for being too slow while ringing up your purchases and then had the audacity to charge you twice for an item. Now your in the Customer Service counter pitching a fit and trying to get the woman fired. God is not pleased with our behavior,and you are giving him a bad name. Show a little love to your fellow Christian,and Non-Christian. Smile, ask them how thier days is going. Try tipping the waiter at the restaurant for goodness sake. Continually have a spirit of brokeness and love, so that when others see you they see God.  If you need help with your temper, your arrogance, or your nasty pias attitude then it is time you asked God for deliverance and mean it this time. Act like you know better by doing better because you truly have no excuse

Planted on Holy Ground. This scripture came to me recently as I stand in the midst of a financial,professional, and emotional storm.  I hold on to the faith and belief that God is in control and He has the last word. It would be very easy for me to have a pity party, blame others,as well as blame God for my circumstances. However my faith and my past experiences tell me that this is just another storm. As a child, and even now as an adult I would love to listen to the rain, and let it rock me to sleep like a baby. While my mom was running around the house turning off all sources of electricity such as the lights and television. She would have us sit in silence as the rain storm erupted outside and beat against our doors, and windows.  The storm frightened my siblings but as for me it calmed me. As an adult I learned that in th time of storms is when God's will is truly able to manifest. We have to stand still like that tree in Psalms 1, planted by the raging waters and in the midst of a horrible storm.  Let God do what He does best. He has to shake things up so that we do not walk in the counsel of the ungodly nor sit in the seat of the scornful. The ways of the world and the circumstances of life cannot dictate how we react. This is our opportunity as men and women of God to meditate on God's word, and rejoice, fast, pray, and allow God to rain on the enemies plans of destruction. Satan will flee in our times of despair if we learn to rejoice in our storms. I know that when it is a storm raging their is a blessing on the other side.  God is maturing me, and preparing me for the next level. He is teaching me how to be calm even when it looks like all Hell has broke loose in my life.  Some may look at me and say your not worried, your not mad, your not scared? My answer is No, because in the end I know that God is in control of my life, and if I trust and depend on Him, and stay in His will, follow His lead, and continue to pray and seek His guidance He will get me over this storm just as He has got me over all the other storms.  I've lost both my father and stepfather, God got me over, I lost my son's father to a tragic house fire, and had to depend on God to help me raise him into the saved, God fearing, intelligent young man he is today. God got me over. I had to get a tumor removed from the lower half of my pancreas, and my spleen removed. God got me over. I developed blood clots in both my lungs post surgery and almost lost my life. God healed me and got me over. I was talked about,lied on, and hated by others because of envy and jealousy. God got me over, and made my enemies my footstool. I say all of this to let you know that like all storms this too shall pass. So if you have a storm in your life know that God will get you over. If you stand on His word and have faith in His promises. Know that you are blessed, anointed, and that like the tree in Psalms Chapte 1, you are planted on Holy Ground.
Peace and God's Blessings

Time to Give Birth

This has a been a 10year or more process for me. Giving birth to my book of Inspirational Poetry. My life experiences, my personal heartaches, and hurt on paper for everyone to see, feel, and gain a better understanding of the Process. The Process of being a complete, fulfilled, happy man or woman of God. I thank my family, friends,

New Year, New You, New Norm

Well this year is starting off with a bang for me. I am in a place I never thought I would be. Reconciling with a love I never thought I would allow back in my heart. It is funny how God's will and our will differs in alot of ways. He desires that we should prosper even as our soul prospers, and that we live a life of selflessness, unconditional love, forgiveness, and honesty. I see that this year will be one of submission, hard truths, true love, happiness, joy, and peace of mind. So as I enter into the second week of the new year, I say thank you Lord, for my health, life, and my strength. The enemy will not have a hold on my finances, my emotions, my children,or my family this year,or any year after this.
I pray the same for you and yours. God Bless

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is what God desires for us all to strive to see.
Forgiveness comes from looking at your own faults and seeing how life could be.
If you took the time to let unconditional and non judgmental love into your heart.
Once you seek to become a better person for yourself, you can let forgiveness start.
It will bring families back together, and friends who let anger tear them apart.
It will mend a broken bond between siblings, and cause God's Will to reighn in our relationships, our lives, and cause us to have a Faith Walk.
We will stop allowing our emotions and flesh dictate how we live.
Instead we will allow God to fix what is broken and give us the strength to believe.
God is the author and the finisher of our fate.
We cannot allow our actions to be ruled by jealousy, unforgiveness or hate.
We do not want to hinder what God is trying to do.
So remember when you have a spirit of unforgiveness you make it impossible for God to forgive you.

Readings:The Book of Philemon

When it's over, It is over

When it's over. It's over.
You continually try to make me love you;however when we were together you did not know what to do.
To make me smile, to make me laugh, to make me feel like a woman.
Now that I have moved on and found someone who can.
You moan, wine, curse me out, and say that it will never work.
I have finally been delivered from your verbal abuse and emotional hurt.
I love you, I love you, is what you say to me night and day. I only ask that you learn to love yourself and ask the Lord to show you the way.
How to heal your pain, and lack of self esteem, so that the next time he blesses you with a woman of God you will truly know what love means.
No one is perfect, and I dont fault you for not being able to see the error in your ways.
You have cried to God, and asked Him for better days.
So let Him give them to you,and stop looking for me to fill that void.
Truly let His will be done in your life, so your future relationships will not be destroyed.
I have nothing but love for you,and I thank you for the seed we made.
Please believe that when I say it's over I am not blowing out hot air,or looking through a cloudy lensed cascade.
I am speaking from a forgiving heart, and deliverance from hurt that was like a boulder.
Trust me my love, when it is over, it is over.

The Process

Darkness surrounds me day and night.
You whisper to me,and say my child stay in the fight.
A peaceful life, and love seem so far from me.
You whisper again, I am molding you into the vessel that I want you to be.
I try to look for acceptance and validation from man.
You whisper yet again, I am the author and the finisher of your life's plan.
I am weak and beaten down,so I lay prostrate before you and pray.
I hear you loud and clear as you say.
Finally my child you have discovered the only way to get in my presence, and attain the desires of your heart.
Is when you stop listening to self and man,and seek My will.
Now the healing can finally start.

Rejoice in Hope,Patient in Tribulation,Continuing Instant in Prayer

At no other time in my life have I had to depend on my signature scripture then in the year 2009. It seems as if the enemy set off the H bomb in my life and all Hell literally broke loose. I lost both my dad's,had to get major surgery to remove one of my organs as well as an abnormal mass, and experienced one emotional trial after another. People would look at me and say??"How can you smile when you have experienced so much pain, loss, and heartache. My answer is and will continue to be,"I am still here,and it's by the grace of God". Trials come to make us or break us. God is molding me into the woman he desires for me to be. Similar to a flower he is pruning me and training me to bend and grow into a beautiful, healthy, strong flower. This pruning process means that I will have to loose some parts of me that are not healthy or conducive to my growth,so that the healthy buds are able to flourish. In everything I stay prayerful and ask Him to give me the strength to endure. I trust and believe that everything that occurs in my life is working for my good,regardless of what it looks like at the time.

Scripture Reading Romans12:12

So heavenly minded that you are no earthly good

I can remember hearing my old Pastor say don't be so Heavenly minded that you are no earthly good, and I wondered what he meant. Then I experienced a holyier than thou saint and knew what he meant. In the secular world that's what someone who puts on airs is called. You've seen it before. Skirt may be sweeping the ground, doilie on there head, they don't talk to unsaved folk, and they cannot carry on a conversation without saying Jesus,or God every five seconds. I do not know where we as children of God got the notion that we can get closer to God by separating ourselves from our co-workers, and strangers. We have become a bubble generation surrounded by an invisible forcefield of holy latex separating us from connecting with the person who is standing next to us. If we truly were following the teachings and character of Jesus then we would know that he never lived His life in this manner. He put Himself in the midst of the people. Whether He was walking by the seaside looking for disciples,or he was in the Temple preaching to the passerbys about the goodness of God. Jesus never thought that anyone was too destitute to be saved by God. We have to learn to come out of our Holy bubbles and fellowship with others. It does not mean that we are being heathens, if anything we are showing our unsaved friends, family, and co-workers that we not only have love for the saved but the unsaved.... Some people may never have a desire to step into a church;therefore, as saved, sanctified believers of God we have to bring the church and God's love to them. Let them see His light in our laugh, in our smile, and in how we treat our fellow man. Just a thought.

If Loving You is Wrong then You Gotta Go

I have learned that as a single christian woman that when God speaks to my spirit and gives me that familiar nudge and says Uh,uh my child danger ahead with that one. I need to listen. There has not been one time when God was wrong when he has given me that nudge. Whether it is a sickening feeling in the pit of my stomach when a new love interest says something in conversation,or I get a flash back of a past love with similar characteristics. I used to try and reason with God and have a conversation with Him that went sort of like this...."Lord, anyone can change, He just has not met the right woman to show him the error in his ways",LOL. Foolish me. I learned that God did not tell me to not go further with a particular person because they were a bad person,but because they would not be able to appreciate me for who I was,or treat me like the gem that I am.... So ladies and gentlemen when you get that intuitive nudge from God listen LOUD and CLEAR.

Would you date you???

Would you date you?? is the question that runs through my mind when I think of all your lies, and how you have stood me up for the last time.
Would you date you??? when you cannot return a call, or even remember to give a darn about my birthday at all... Would you date you??? When you forget to open my door, or you stare too long and too hard at the waitress as she picks up the napkin from the floor.
Would you date you??? If you refused to meet my folks for the 5th time, or give me some lame excuse about falling asleep during our scheduled dinner time. Would you date you??? when you tell me that you intend to beat my kid. If he continues to keep whining about sleeping in his own bed... Would you date you??? When you fail to put together the computer desk,and repeatedly leave the front room in catastrophic mess.
I am sure that you would not dare to date you, or even come near to dating you, so that's why I have decided that it is time to say that we are through...
