God IS love and not of fear!! The devil is fear and counters Gods love for us by lying and trying to steal, kill, and destroy our relationship with God!!
Fear is a lier and will do it's best to place doubt into our minds to push Christ out of our heart! It will look for the smallest pause in our time to slide in and begin to work. In other words idle minds, idle hands are the devils playground! We must put of the full armor of God (Ephisians 6:10-18) to not only defend from but to attack satan's plans for us every day!! In donning the Armor of God we mustn't stand idle. Attacks will come more frequently and fiercely after donning His armor. Standing idle will have us overwhelmed, eventually fearing the situation, and finally turning and running leaving our, entirely unprotected, backside exposed to satan's attacks!
We must TRUST that God knows best! We must TRUST that God has our backs! We must TRUST God's love for us and cling to Him in our hardest trials of life! If we do not, satan will be there with his demons to torment us and to lie to us in order to steal, kill, and destroy our love for God!!!
I believe there is a theme for the week going here with trusting God Almighty! Messages this frequent only means one thing Brothers and Sisters, we had better take heed to what is being said. Right now we are in a time that we must turn back to God. We must praise Him. We must worship Him. We must TRUST Him. We are the modern time Israelites Brothers and Sisters, and until we turn back to our Father, we will continue to, metaphorically speaking, wonder the desert until we do!
Trust in God my friends, trust in Him!!! I hope the pleasantries of Gods blessing are abundantly showered upon you this beautiful, cold, God given day!! Much love from might to yours!!!!

Trust. Trust is a sacred thing that has been cheapened in todays world. It is thrown around so much and in a careless manner that we have come to doubt the use of the word. In todays world the word trust have become a form of manipulation. Generally speaking, the word trust has become a smokescreen to obtain secular wants and desires. Quite frankly, often times it has become a tool in satan's arsenal used to defy Gods will.
With this being said, how many times have we ever read God saying "trust me." We haven't. Why? Because God does not need to convince! God is the almighty! When He says it, it is done!! There is no convincing needed! You see God has a 5 star rating amongst His followers! He has no need to convince because He has an ifinant list of the best reviews, from His loyalist customers, that does the convincing for Him!!! Testimonies about bills being paid to healing and even broken addiction!!!! But most importantly.... His saving Grace!!!!
God is the real deal and He wants to bless us limitelessly. He wants to be the go-to in our lives, the only go-to!! At the end of it all He wants us in Heaven with Him!!!! All we have to do is put our faith in Him, believe Jesus hung on Cavalrys the Cross to pay for our sins, and accept Christ into our hearts, and we too can experience Gods love, blessings, and saving grace as His followers already have, do, and will!!!
Man oh man!!! God is sooo good!!!! I hope you have an exceptionally blessed and warm Tuesday!!! Much love from mine to yours!!!

When you woke up this morning were you hungry? Did you think about what you wanted to settle that hunger with? Did you search the cupboards for breakfast, or maybe the icebox? Did you pick something up from your favorite drive thru or restaurant? Did you skip breakfast all together?
Were you this diligent in searching for the spiritual food needed to satisfy you hunger for God this morning? Did you thank God for allowing you to wake up? Did you read in the scripture today? Did you talk to God? Did you listen to His message? How about this, did you say a simple "Good morning!" to Him?!?! Think about your answers for a moment.
As we compare and evaluate our answers we will hopefully see the importance of maintaining a healthy spiritual hunger and understanding that our physical and spiritual hungers are quite different in several aspects.
First, spiritual hunger is all about God and God is in control of everything. Including our physical hunger. While the cupboard controls what goes into our stomach, God controls what goes in the cupboard! God has our needs covered, He even says in Mat. 6:25-27!!!
Second, physical hunger is temporary. We eat or drink and our hunger is tamed for a stint, but it eventually it will come back. However, when fed, spiritual hunger does not subside, but will become stronger! Unlike the physical, when the spiritual is fed our need for more God is inevitable! We will not be able to get enough, bringing us closer to God!!!
Third, physical hunger fuels us until the end of our time on earth, hunger for God fuels us for eternity! Once we reach the kingdom there will be no more need for roast beef and fried chicken. However, the need for God will be greater than ever! The desire to praise, worship, and to be in the presence of the Lord will be the only thing on our minds!!!!
Remember, God is in control! Seek Him! Praise Him! Worship Him! Feed your hunger for Him! Desire Him as He desires us! Hope you have a wonderfully blessed Monday!! Much love from mine to yours!!!

As we live our daily lives we often deal with excruciating pains. We break a bone, we have hard times financially, relationship failures, we even lose loved ones. But, these trials and personal tribulations are only temporary.
At the end of our time God will be standing at the finish line with arms wide open. He will be there ready to hold us, to comfort us, to take these earthly pains from our hearts. He will be ready to wipe the tears from our eyes and to ushers us into a whole new life. A life of peace and happiness without hate but full of love! Without death but with everlasting life! A life without sorrows or shame! There will be no more pain or suffering because He will be at that finish line to welcome us as we enter the gates of Heaven!!!
Oh!!!! How exciting is it to know that one day, in Gods time, our journey on this earth will be through and we have spending eternity with Him to look forward to!!! It brings such joy and elation to my heart knowing that God loves us this much!!!
Hoping this good word will bring joy, happiness, and excitement to your upcoming weekend! Much much love from mine to yours!!

I love this verse. Why? Because it contradicts the fleshly and false narrative the God does not answer prayers.
You see every prayer that we send to God is answered. Many times He says no, we don't like the answer, so we mark it up to unanswered. Whether we like it or not the prayer has been answered.
Now, this does not mean that we quit praying. In fact it's right the opposite. Again, why? Because God could quite possibly be saying "no, it's not time" and this verse tells us that this answer is quite possible! This scripture tells us that we, in the flesh, are impatient God goes by His own clock and calender.
Another thing this verses message is "if we hope". What's the significance of this wording? In todays world hope is used as just another word to show uncertainty. Often, when used, hope shows a lack of faith in whatever the subject of conversation may be. However, hope is an expectation of a desire. We ask God for safe travel, and... we expect it! Think about this for a minute, would Paul have used hope with love and faith in 1 Corinthians 13:13 if hope meant uncertainty? I don't believe so.
So, conclusion, this verse reads "but if we expect a desire, we will continually and fervently pray while waiting for God's time."
I hope day four is absolutely phenomenal for all my brothers and sisters!

Brothers and Sisters there is no significant amount of reading today. The message is relatively simple. If we accept Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior we will have eternal life with our God in Heaven! If we don't accept Christ Jesus as our Lord and Savior we will spend our eternal lives in the pits of Hell!
Brash, straight forward, and to the point. There are just some times where we don't the dressings just the main course!

Let all that I am praise the LORD; may I never forget the good things he does for me. He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. He redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle's!
God so deserves our utmost praise, love, respect, and gratitude. Not only because of who He is and what He does for us, but the great love He gives! He is our Savior, He is our Great Physician. When we are struggling physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually He puts His hand out and says "let Me hold in you my child." When we have fallen short, He showers us with His unconditional and merciful love. When the Spirit is within us, He restores our inner youth in a way that no substance could ever do! Amen!!!
Oh, how great is our God!!! Praising Him and worshipping Him should be, needs to be, on the top of our to do lists all day! Every day! Appreciation and gratitude is what He deserves! Love God as if He is the only being in your world. Then, and only then, will we begin to understand the love that God has for us.
I hope you all have a glorious Tuesday! Much love from mine to yours!

God is the focal point to which we are to focus on in order to live a spiritually healthy life. However, we often allow secular aspects of the world to push God out of position this position of influence. The unfortunate thing about this is that we usually don't realize this until we are completely off course. With this being said, we must realize that when in this state we are most vulnerable to the devils schemes. This vulnerability leads to sin, which in turn pushes God further away from the center of our lives. So in conclusion, be aware of your surroundings. Be aware that the devil is lurking in the shadows, waiting for our time of weakness so he can move in and attempt to push God out. Philippians 4:13 says it best. If we do all things through Christ, He will strengthen us. When doing all of our activities in this manner Jesus's presence is assured and He can easily be focused on throughout all of our journeys. No matter how big our small.
Wishing all of my brothers and sisters in Christ a spectacularly awesome and blessing filled Saturday! Much love from mine to yours!!!

He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought.
Like a tree, once our roots have taken hold, we will send our roots to the closest source of food. The longer we are invested in that source the more we will feed from it. As with the tree, depending on what the source of food is will determine the quality of health we shall obtain. This is also true with our strength as well. When we plant ourselves close to God (put our confidence in God) our roots will then take hold in God. We will feed from that stream giving our mind and soul the ultimate nourishment. Just like giving a tree proper nourishment, God will make us stronger mentally and give us a spiritual health that is next to none. With this level of spiritual health and strength, and God as our gardener, we will will be able to outlast any drought or weather any storm!
God's garden is wonderfully beautiful. He wants us to join Him in that garden. However, it's up to us as to whether we will be the beautiful rose that He desires or the thorn in Jesus's crown.
Food for thought on this crisp and nippy, but beautiful late January morning! Remember brothers and sisters, God is good all the time!!! All the time God is good!!! Much love from mine to yours!!!

18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.
19Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly.
20But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins."
22So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:
23"Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," d which is translated, "God with us."
24Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife,
25and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. e And he called His name Jesus.
AMEN!!!! Happy birthday Jesus!!!

32He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.

34Then Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I do not know a man?"
35And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.

The Lord has a plan, and to this plan He does not stray. He does not change His mind just because we think He ought to. If fact, quite often these times are when He's stands most firm. So, we begin to believe that He will not fulfill His promises as He has stated. What we must remember is that we have to fulfill our part of the deal. This isn't just a "what can God do for me relationship". When we were saved Christ committed to being our open pathway to God and God committed to keeping the covenant forever. In return, we committed to living a Christ like life. Now, when God does not fulfill a promise as soon as we feel He should, there is a reason. God is not ignoring us. In fact it's quite the opposite, He's listening to our ever word. He is in a longsuffering state for us. He is being patient with us, despite the troubles we have caused. He has no desire to see us perish into an eternity of damnation. His desire is for us to turn back to Him, repent and turn from our wicked ways. You see, God has given us free will. The freedom to choose Christ, the freedom to make poor decisions, but He has also given us the opprotunity to turn back to Him and ultimately this is what pleases God. Having the eyes of His children turned upon Him!
Happy a fantabulous, spectacular Friday! Much love from might to yours.
