Step By Step!!!

My God has brought me a long way from where I started, mountains have been moved, and sea’s have parted

Though, to reach that place of destiny, it seems I still have a long road ahead, and discouragement creeps in when I set my gaze on the finish line; therefore I focus on my very next step instead

Meditating on The Word of God continually, so that, in Gods Word my steps may be ordered one at a time, it’s God’s Word through which I’m empowered to move forward regardless how steep the climb, even when it seem as though the climb has turned into a deep decline

My God can use any and every situation to make it work for my good, there’s lessons to be learned even when I fall short, when I don’t do as I should

When I think I see a short cut, and impatiently step off of God’s divine path, though it doesn’t take me long to do the math, to realize I’ve stepped in a direction leading to God’s wrath

Then I step back in line, with patience, and a renewed will to endure, knowing that the promises within God’s Word are true, and in The Word of God, I can stand sure

Knowing; my God is always on time, He’s never late, and He never allow anything to go to waste, He uses even the blood, sweat and tears that fall upon my plate

My God somehow, someway, miraculously use even my deepest pains for my own good, while simultaneously developing an eternal smile of glory on my face, see, I must be totally broken, which brings about a sense of humility, which allows The Spirit of my God to lead me into that destined place

Everyday there’s a spiritual battle going on within me, and everyday I’m realizing more and more that my enemy’s promises are not fulfilling at all, but rather hollow, and I get better at, not just hearing that still, small voice of God, but possessing The Holy Spirit’s power to follow

In The Hands Of God; It’s Never Wasted!!!

My time is in God’s hands, His thoughts are higher than mine, His ways are much better, therefore I must surrender to His perfect plans, I must resist my sinful flesh enticing demands, while seeking my God daily for His peace-filled, most effective commands

Though reaching this place was no easy task, perpetually, in the ambiance of my Father’s presence I bask

See, even now if I look at life through the lens of the natural eye, my heart would cry, I’ve wasted so much time chasing an empty dream, listening to the devil’s lie

I digress, it’s Jesus name, His will and His way that I confess, my Lord has a way of redeeming the time, making all things new and cleaning up my mess

There are promises written in The Word of God for me, and for you too, Romans 8:28 tells us: “ALL” things work together for good to those who love God, those who are called according to His purpose… My God can manifest His purpose in us and through us despite what we have done, despite what we do

The meat of God’s Word, “I’VE TASTED”, now I know, that I know, that I know,

In The Hands Of God; It’s Never Wasted!!!

The Word Of God Tells Us!!!

The Word of God tells us: we “WILL” experience tribulation, we will experience disappointment, the lack of fulfillment  of some expectation

The Word of God also tells us over and over again, to be strong and courageous, for we have an enemy who’s motive is to steal, kill and destroy, an enemy who is far from advantageous

The Word of God tells us that Christ Himself endured all the pain of the cross by the glory that was set before Him, meaning; He knew the victory that His temporary demise would bring, He knew that it was to our Heavenly Father which even He had to tightly cling

The Word of God tells us: for those who love God, those who have accepted the call to His purpose, “All” things are working together for good, even the worst of circumstances will reveal God’s goodness within our lives when we can say: it’s in The Word of God that I’ve firmly stood.

The Word of God tells us that Jesus Christ…IS…The Way, The Truth, The Life

We do well when, without grumbling, without fuss, we diligently seek God’s Word, listening, preparing to obey whatever

The Word Of God Tells Us!!!

Acquitted!!!

I’m free, I’m free, I’m free, born a sinner full of transgressions and iniquity, but I’ve been acquitted through the Blood of The Lamb which was shed on Calvary

This sacrificial action of my Lord and Savior made it possible for me to experience a new birth, I’ve accepted Jesus Christ as The Way, The Truth, The Life and The One in whom lies my worth

Though it’s by the serpent’s poisonous, venomous attraction to sin that I was bitten and injected, now, it’s in the Hands of Him who spoke the entire universe into existence that I’m being shaped, molded, perfected

Yes; I’ve done almost everything under the sun, I confess, I admit it, this is why I give all praise, honor and glory to my Lord Jesus Christ because it’s through His Righteous, sinless Blood that I’ve been,

Acquitted!!!

Seasons Of The Unknown!!!

 

Life has many seasons, warm and dry seasons, cold and wet seasons, seasons when we know exactly where we’re going, and seasons of the unknown, It’s the unknown seasons that are the hardest of them all, when we can’t see because of the thick fog, we stumble, sometimes even fall, the blustery winds blow when we feel most uncovered, wide open, no protection, no wall, the feeling of hopelessness begin to set in, then, we call out to God, and seemingly, He’s not even answering our call

We cry out: Lord, how long? Lord, what did I do wrong? I really need You Lord, because in this season I’m not feeling very strong

Lord, I really need to know, from here, what do I do, where do I go? and breakthrough still don’t show

I guess this is what faith is all about, so it’s in faith that I will stand as a deeply rooted tree, I will not doubt, digging deeper within to find strength, so praise to my Lord I can sing and shout, I refuse to mope, I refuse to pout

Trusting, believing that even in this season God’s glory “WILL” be shown, knowing, that through it all my Lord is still sitting on His Throne, and I’m His, He is mine even when the enemy refuse to leave me alone, even in the,

How Would We Know

How would we know God as a Deliverer if we were never bound, how would we know Jesus as the Way if we were never lost with a need to be found, and if we never found ourselves at the foot of that big ol’ mountain going round and round

How would we know our Lord as the Prince of Peace if we were never shaken, if we never experienced a little fear, as a Healer if our hearts were never wounded and we never had to shed a tear

How would we know our Father as Love if we never witnessed the enemy’s hate, how would we know God as an on time God if we move in our own will fearing that, regarding His promises, God is running behind, He’s late, when God wants us to be still and know, and on Him faithfully, patiently wait

How would we know God as a Provider if we never had a need, how would we know Him as the Producer of fruit if we never planted seed, how would we even know what to expect from God if we never picked up God’s Word to read, and posses the willingness to follow His Holy Spirit’s lead

How Would We Know

 

 

 

 

 

 

How Do We Love In A World Full Of Hate

How Do We Love In A World Full Of Hate

This fallen world in which we live is getting more hateful by the day, society’s majority has accepted the devil’s way of play, listening and obeying every lying, deceptive word that he say, the daily news alone is enough to propel me to perpetually pray.

Mass murder of innocent human beings, all sorts of people doing all sorts of satanic, demonic things.

Even on Holy ground, places where one would never expect to hear that deadly sound, gunshots fired, round after round after round, hate has the hearts and minds of so many utterly bound.

There’s hate in the lands on the other side of the sea, to the east, the west, to the north, the south, hate is all around, and in clear view so we can plainly see, hate is even intertwined in the shows that’s created for T.V., fact is, hate binds up, hate cannot set free, hate is produced and brought to life in the heart of man through man’s eternal enemy.

What’s on the inside is what eventually seeps out, God is Love, and it’s in Love that we are able to stand against hate strong and stout, when we fill ourselves with Love’s Word, we are able to trump hate, because over Love hate has no clout.

How Do We Love In A World Full Of Hate

The Living Word of God tells us that the Love of many would wax cold, so in this day, to Love we must keep a tight hold, even when we’re all caught up in the midst of hate, it’s only in Love that we’re able to remain steadfast and bold, it’s in The Word of God that we will find the greatest Love story ever told.

A story about a Savoir who came from Heaven to a fallen world full of a people who are desperately lost, even for those who literally, physically hung Him there, He gave up His life on a old rugged cross, to die for your friends is one thing, but to die for an enemy is Love’s ultimate cost.

God is Love, so when it’s in the Word of Love that we meditate, society’s hate, can’t penetrate, it’s this Love that has the power to actually make us brand new, not “just” wipe our sins away and give us a clean slate, and on the manifestation of Love’s glory, we will, at times have to patiently wait, just remember: “GOD IS LOVE” whenever you find yourself asking yourself,

He’s Worthy!!!

 

My Lord is worthy of all my praise,

the darkness of my night is being overtaken by “The Light”

and I once again have hope for better days.

I have a strong peace within,

I know that I am His though I sometime transgress, sometimes I sin,

I know that my Heavenly Father, through Christ, has already provided a way for me to enter in;

therefore,

 

He’s Worthy!!!

 

He is “The Way”, so I follow hard after Him even when I can’t see,

He’s there listening to my prayer, hearing my plea,

from all bondage He made it possible for me to break free.

He is my God, I am His son,

for He judge me through Jesus blood, not by the wrong that I’ve done

it’s only through That Mighty, Sacrificial Blood of The Lamb that I can declare this game of life to be already won;

this is why,

 

He’s Worthy!!!

 

And praise Him is what I’ll do,

not “Just” in the good times, but I’m praising Him in whatever mess I may have to go through,

because in a world full of falsehood and deception I know that to the very end, it’s my Lord who will remain true.

He kept me when I couldn’t keep myself,

He has shown me; in “Him” I’m already rich, without the wealth,

but it’s only when I decided to take my Bible off the shelf

that The Spirit of my Lord began to speak to me,

revealing things, spiritually,

one of those things being the simple fact;

 

He’s Worthy!!!

Isaiah 43:19 (KJV)

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.

 

A New Thing

A New Thing

 

I’ve applied all that I know,

but neutralized has been my flow,

stuck here in the wilderness, trying to move forward, and of my own will, trying to let go.

 

What used to work for me in the past, doesn’t work for me anymore,

so it’s this new thing that I now look for,

my God said: even in the wilderness He will provide an exit door.

 

In the midst of the desert, He will provide a river,

but in the meantime; I must walk by faith because the enemy is constantly in my ear saying: on His promises, God will never deliver,

then I tell the enemy all that my God has already done, then he begin to shake and shiver.

 

Then he turn and run away as I begin to gloriously sing,

to the one and only Lord of every Lord, King of every King,

but the enemy always return to me again with his enticing lies, and maybe even a bit of bling,

but even here in the wilderness; in this dry desert; I will not eat off of his plate, because I wait, I seek

A New Thing

As The Attacks Intensify!!!

 

Today, January 15th 2018 my wife and I received a report; “2” words no-one ever wants to hear, “Breast Cancer”; and though some did, neither my wife or I have shed a tear,

we have overcome so much together; so,

we know,

even in this, our God is near,

even,

 

As The Attacks Intensify!!!

 

We have put on the armor of God, and for this battled we have been prepared,

by the stripes of Jesus Christ we were healed, this is what the Living Word of God has declared.

 

Just a few years back,

against this “Cancer” attack;

it’s with my mother that I walked hand in hand,

and through God’s Word, His Love, His grace we thwarted what the enemy had planned,

 

now here we go again,

ready to prove to the enemy that it’s in God’s word in which we believe, it’s on God’s word upon which we stand.

 

As The Attacks Intensify!!!

 

My faith in my Lord grow stronger and stronger,

it’s through Him that we’re empowered with fortitude and tenacity; if the battle is short lived, even if it last longer.

 

In 2017 the attacks were none stop; financially,

relationally;

now their growing in intensity,

the devil just don’t see,

we know; he can’t destroy what The Heavenly Father said will be,

so as for me and my house, we’re saturated in the Peace of God, and His Serenity.

 

We know that the victory is already ours, in the here and now, and in the sweet bye and bye,

we know that before the enemy speak, he’s already a lie;

even,

 

As The Attacks Intensify!!!

 

Thank You Jesus…
