Trained in trouble

By -

Good Morning!

You are not in the trouble you think you’re in! God has orchestrated this trouble to be your training. The trouble is an exercise to show you your level of maturity (Romans 12:2). Before God can open up next-level blessings in your life, He has to be sure you are ready to handle it. Are you still on spiritual milk, or have you moved on to solid foods (Hebrews 5:11-14)? You may be praying that God get you out of the very thing He is using to teach you something! Stop and consider the purpose in your trouble? Knowing that God’s plan for you is divine, is peace beyond normal understanding (Philippians 4:7)! You cannot serve God without developing Spiritual Senses. This is the time to develop your prayer life and spend quality time in the presence of the Lord (1 Chronicles 16:11). Ask Him for wisdom as you navigate this season in your life (James 1:5) - He cant give you the power until you catch the vision!

The Blessed Spirit

Good Morning! Everything God sends you comes in the Spirit! You prosper in your Spirit before you prosper in the flesh. God has given you fruits of the Spirit that far surpass any material possession you could ever seek to obtain. You are more wealthy than you know if you can begin to allow them to operate in your daily life! (Galatians 5:22-23) Is the only experience you have with God in church from week to week? Are you suffering from spiritual malnutrition? Your spiritual senses need to constantly be developed; what does your daily prayer and devotion time consist of (2 Timothy 2:15)? You have an outer-ear to hear audible noises, you have an inner-ear hear the Spirit of the Lord. You have an outer-eye to see natural things, you have an inner-eye so that you can see vision. If you continue to operate in the flesh, you lose your defense against the enemy. God wants you to connect with you in a way that is only possible when your spiritual senses are mature. It is not enough to simply...

How do you see yourself?

By -
Pain, hurt and loss affect us to our core. We replay our painful experiences on a continuous loop in our minds.  We wish the outcome had been different--that he would have loved us more or that they wouldn’t have abused us.  But no matter how good we get at masking the pain, our wounds haven’t even begun to heal. All that happened in your past was damaging, but it resides in the past. As we cling to feelings of being unworthy, unlovable or damaged, we invite experiences into our lives that mirror these negative self beliefs.  No matter what you try, the painful memories weigh you down.  But today this changes.   It is within your power to stop the destruction and change the stories in your head. Use these 3 ways to acknowledge your pain and stop beating yourself up inside. 1. Overcome By Your Testimony Tell the truth about what happened to you, it’s long overdue. Stop lying about the depth of your pain. Let your guard down to those yo...

Think Right; Make Way For The Light

Disappointments, hurt , fear, shame, and guilt are all things we go through, once in a while (some more frequently than others) and we sometimes allow these things to weigh on us. What’s more is that in those dark moments, we become silent, and secretly let those thoughts and emotions eat away at us. We feel as though we can’t open up to anybody, because maybe we feel ashamed; maybe we fear feeling misunderstood; or maybe we feel like we don’t want to burden others with our problems. Indeed, making errors is a normal, if unwanted, part of life. Every one of us has moments we are not proud of – moments when anger, jealousy or our insecurities get in the way of our living in the light. Yet, we are called on to realize that the darkness cannot and will not overshadow our good. Studies have found that people who think they can learn from their mistakes bounced back quickly after an error. It may feel like it is too late, or too much has passed, but never doubt that...
