As an African American, I acknowledge and celebrate this day which marks the end of slavery for many Black people in America who, for two full years past the actual Constitutional decree, were illegally denied their right to freedom. I have always found it ironic that the south, the susposed Bible belt of this nation, literally fought for the right to maintain racism, through the oppression of other people. Let that sink in. But, being from the south, I am all the more grateful, both as an African American and Christian, that God did not allow that evil to prevail. One cannot be a Christian and exalt oppression in any form, including that which represents oppression. One such misrepresentation of Christianity, is displayed by one...

Possessions come and go. Some have emotional attachments to them, while others are just something may be we lusted after like that new gadget, designer purse or the beautiful new sports car. We can treasure items we have that have been passed down from generation to generation in your family and they can never be replaced. Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:19-21, "do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." My prized possession is my bible! It is a part of me now...

Many people, particularly those who rely heavily on astrology, tend to view retrograde in a negative light. Certainly, our faith is not placed in astrology, yet even the church, usually only preaches of "progression," as apposed to regression, as movement toward blessing. But, because God says: “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” when God flips the script, on behalf of His humble servants, even retrograde takes on a marvelously, miraculous new meaning. I so love how God continues to dictate to me, through His Word, his messages of instruction to share with those who are willing to hear. As I shared with you, God answered my questions regarding my tears during my Covid illness back in January; but, as...

I Asked God for a Word for His People. This is what God gave me... Isaiah 26:20, 21 (NIV) Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. See, the Lord is coming out of his dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will disclose the blood shed on it; the earth will conceal its slain no longer. Isaiah 26:20, 21 (NLT) Go home, my people, and lock your doors! Hide yourselves for a little while until the Lord’s anger has passed. Look! The Lord is coming from heaven to punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will no longer hide those who have been killed. They will be brought out for all to see. Isaiah 26:20...

Have you ever had such a bad day that you wanted a "do over"? Or maybe a bad year like this year? This thought crossed my mind last week. While driving to work one morning, I decided to go a different way than I normally do so I could get to the main road faster. I was the 4th vehicle in line at the stop sign to turn right onto the main road. A semi-truck was waiting to try to turn left onto the road I was on. He abruptly turned left to avoid the oncoming cars and while he was looking at his trailer swinging around the corner, he wasn't paying attention that the road curved right there and his cab was inches away from my drivers door. I blasted the horn and he jumped and swerved away from my vehicle. I had no...

“O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” Psalm 63:1 The sensation of thirst seems rather straightforward. Our mouths and throats get dry from talking or exercise, and we simply throw cold liquid down the hatch. Presto, we’re not thirsty anymore. The body, however, thinks of thirst in a much different way. Most internal organs have sensory nerves that monitor the level of water in their environment and signal changes to the brain. The hypothalamus is the region of the brain primarily responsible for monitoring the signals, sensing an increased concentration of salt in the bloodstream. Our soul experiences its own kind of thirst...

Our Lord Christ Jesus God Holy Spirit reveals that the world's concerns are completely different than of His own will. This link shows Jesus breaking it down to His opponents in John 8:31 - 44. https://satansattraction.blogspot.com/2020/06/john-831-44-spirit-v-world-breakdown.html

Feelings can be fickle and aren't always accurate. Are your feelings lining up with what is true or are your feelings having a field day with your mind. The enemy likes to sneak into any cracks you have with your emotional state and put thoughts in your head. Then you keep replaying those thoughts over and over and it starts to build and grow into something that seems enormous and more than likely none of it is true. I call this the snowball effect. You start with a thought and you are on a snowy hill, as the thought (snowball) starts off it is small. As you dwell on it, it keeps rolling and getting bigger and bigger, it starts picking up momentum and by the time it is at the bottom of the hill, it is a huge boulder...

Pêople are telling us this pandemic will last for a year or two or even more. No one has found a cure yet and will take a long time to do so. While others are saying, o yes, we found the cure and it will be ready. It has been more than seven months and no one has found a vaccine to cure us from this contagious and horrible desease that destroys your lungs once you get it. Then, whom should we trust? Whom should we call? 1. Call on the Lord who is worthy of praise. 2. Bless the Lord all the days of your life till He calls you home to heaven. 3. Men and women of the world who rejected the Lord and refuse to come to Him will be saved once they start believing and trusting in Jesus. 4. If you and I cannot trust the Lord...
