Hey *y’all! I pray everyone had a blessed Thanksgiving and please didn’t forget to thank Jesus for giving His life for us. Thank you for continuing to read this blog. Today while talking to one of my spiritual sisters on various issues, this thought stirred my spirit– “If you’re sick, how can you tell me how to get well?” It seemed so simple yet was truly profound. How many of *y’all know someone who is spiritually sick, but they are always trying to give you advice on how to get well? They speak on the topic as though they are certified doctors –yet they are constantly coughing, gagging, and throwing up various toxins ( hatred, malice, envy, gossiping, backbiting, misery). Their lives are contaminated and everything they touch is contaminated –yet they are quick to make house calls to tell you how to heal yourself, your family, and your house. Some of them give you spiritual remedies that they have not even tried themselves – but they want you to try them out. It seems that almost every time you see them they are literally walking around like Atomic Bombs- meaning they contaminate everything they touch and even those in the surrounding areas. The bottom-line is this if you are sick you can’t help me or anyone else get well! You can only pass on your contagions to others! You need to go to the ultimate healer (Jesus) and ask him to heal your sicknessed before you start issuing out medical (spiritual) advice. If this is something that you have dealt with or that speaks to your spirit, please pray this prayer with me “Father God in the name of Jesus thank you for being the ultimate healer! You protect me from all evil and I trust that no weapon formed against me and my family shall prosper. You gave me the power to tread on serpents and scorpions. You are the ultimate protector! Please forgive me for walking in disobedience! I plead the Blood of Jesus over any unholy alliances in my life –past and present. I ask you to remove all spiritual and physical toxins from my life so that I may be the healthy soldier you need me to be.”

Check-Mark Christians

James 3:11 ~“Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?”~

Mark 12:31~ “ And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.~”

Acts 15:8 ~ “And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us.~”

Luke 9:23 ~ “And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”~

Matthew 7:20 ~ “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them."~

Hey *Y’all! I pray this message truly blesses someone today. Today’s topic is something that has been on my spirit lately. How many of *y’all know someone who only comes to church to check a block? I mean they only come to church for ‘show’ on Sundays, but during the rest of the week they live like heathens? They hoop, holler, shout, jump, and pass out on the altar, but on Monday through Friday, they curse, belittle, backbite, fight, and outright disrespect others. I’m writing on this, because it is becoming more common to see many “church folk” live like hell during the week, but then “act” all holy and sanctified on Sunday.

If you know someone who falls into this category, and if you consider them to be a friend of yours you need to pull them to the side and tell them to please stop playing in God’s house. Tell them to turn from their ungodly ways. If you are someone who acts like this, then you need to really look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself -Who are you fooling? Because you aren’t fooling God, He knows all and sees all. He evaluates our hearts, and He knows that you are putting on a show –and He is not impressed. He knows that your heart is hard, and that you back bite and belittle your brothers and sisters throughout the rest of the week. He also knows that some of you can’t even get into your cars good, before you take off your sanctified suits and put on your satan-fied suits. For those of you living like this; Aren’t you tired of playing with God? Aren’t you tired of putting on a show and only having a tired, sweaty body to show for it? Aren’t you tired of going to the altar and not seeing any changes in your life? If you are tired of this, then you must; 1.) Pray and ask God for deliverance, 2.) Pray and ask God to purify your heart. 3.)Pray and ask God to show you how to love others –everyday. 4.) Read and study the Word.

This message is not to belittle or point fingers at anyone; but it is to help you to better look at yourselves. If you don’t recognize that there is a problem then there can be no change. No one is perfect, but as Christians we should all be striving for perfection in Christ. We should leave our churches with a renewed spiritual strength ready to conquer –not join the world. This is not to say we won’t have some downer days, because we will all experience those too, but if all of your days are downers, then you need to truly evaluate your relationship with Christ. If you call yourself a true Child of God, then your fruit should represent this every day. You should be planting seeds of life so that you will draw sinners, etc. to God’s Kingdom, not running them off because of your hypocritical ways.

Aren't you ready to experience everything that God has in store for you? I can’t speak for you, but I can speak for myself when I say, “Yes Lord I am ready to walk in your ways, I want to experience true peace and love. Please cleanse me white as snow. Please purify my heart so that I will walk in the ways that please you, please send the Holy Spirit to convict me when I fall from your righteous path, Please help me to be a 24hr 7-day a week Christian, In Jesus Name I pray! Amen.

"The Blind Can't Lead The Blind"

Luke 6:39-40 ~"And He spoke a parable to them: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch? A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher”~

Acts 9:18~ “And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.”~

Matthew 22:14 ~“For many are called, but few are chosen.”~

1 John 4:1 ~ "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”~

Hey *Y’all! I pray that this message blesses you today. Today’s topic is called “The blind can’t lead the blind." I chose this topic because I have seen so many people fall countless times, because they are following someone who is blind, someone who is blind but pretends to see, or someone who used to see but have lost their vision altogether. When you follow someone who can’t spiritually see you too will not be able to see and you will surely fall into the traps that the enemy has set up for you. The devil doesn’t play fair, and he loves when the blind leads the blind because he can literally get two souls for the price of one! For those of you that are following others blindly I pray that the scales are removed from your eyes and that you become a seer for yourself. There’s nothing wrong with having allies on the road to salvation, but make sure that your allies are spiritually competent to follow. For those of you following someone who is pretending like they can see, but are truly just as blind or blinder than you. I pray that you learn how to test their spirit and look at their fruit. If it is rotten then run as far away as possible -in the opposite direction because it is a trap of the enemy! And lastly if you are following someone that started out on the righteous path, but somehow lost their way then you need to let their hand go too, and continue on without them because they will certainly lead you down the pathway to destruction. Pray that they turn from their evil ways and get back on track.

How can you know for sure if you are following someone who is spiritually blind? 1. Pray about it! God always answers prayers and He will not steer us in the wrong direction-ever! 2. Read the Bible - stay in the Word because it is something we need to live! When we skip on reading the Word it is easier for us to be manipulated by the enemy. 3. Test the Spirit – always test someone’s spirit that you aren’t sure of and if it doesn’t line up with what the Word says then you have most likely been entertained by a blind individual. It is getting harder and harder to live out in this world, and the Word says, “For many are called but few are chosen”. My Brothers and Sisters in Christ If you truly love Jesus and want to go higher then please don’t let anyone trick, scam, or scare you out of your salvation. Be careful about who you follow!

One Way.

“~John 14:6~ “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."~

~John 10:9~ “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.”~

Hey *Y’all! Thank you for continuing to read and support this blog. I pray God blesses each of you for reading. Recently, I watched a movie on television that had a scene where two of the main characters were hopelessly lost in a desert. They were tired, hot, and thirsty. One of the characters began showing signs of delusion, and at one point he started smiling, running, and screaming, “Oh my God! Can you believe it? Can you believe our luck?, It’s a miracle!” And then he runs to what appears to be a jeep in the distance, and he climbs inside the jeep and turns on the radio, bobs his head, and begins to snap his fingers to the music. Then he picks up a cold drink and slurps the straw and says, “Brain freeze!!” Meanwhile his friend sees the true picture…. He looks at his delusional friend with pity because he can truly see that what his friend thinks he sees is a mirage or an illusion. He knows there is nothing there, only more rocks and more sand. His delusional friend appears to be really enjoying himself, because his mind has really fooled him to think that he has escaped his current reality.

This made me think about the countless people in the world who are just like the delusional character, because many fall for what appears to be wonderful, and marvelous things, but in reality they are illusions from satan to get you off track. Just like the movie character many fall for the tricks and illusions of the enemy, and it seems that no one can tell them otherwise. Some even get upset when you try to tell them to “Wake up! Or Open your eyes!” because they don’t want to hear the truth, they want you to go along with their delusion. However, if you are a real friend you will be honest with them and tell them the truth and try and help them come back to reality.

I am speaking from experiences, because when I was living foul in the world and chasing mirage after mirage no one could tell me anything either. I really believed that the things I was chasing were real, and that they really did make me happy and satisfied when in actuality I was still hurting and wanting true love. But thankfully today I stand before *y’all a new and improved creature who has truly learned to open my spiritual eyes and see that the only thing that is constant and true is Jesus Christ! His love is true, His gifts are true, and His joy is true. When I ran to Him He didn’t let me down, He is a constant provider in my life. When all of the mirages and illusions of the world let me down, He continues to uplift and strengthen me. If you are tired of chasing the mirages and illusions, etc. of the world, then I pray you call on the only One who can save you! Jesus is the only way to the Father. Please stop believing worldly lies and teachings and considering the other ways because they will only lead you to what appears to be Heaven but in actuality – will send you to a very real eternal hell.

Power In The Blood

2 Timothy 1:7 ~”For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

Epehsians 6:10-18 ~10” Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”~

Luke 10:19 ~”“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

Hey *Y’all! I pray that this message lands on some receptive ears today. Today’s topic is called "Power in the Blood.” I am writing on this topic because my family and I have gone through some trying situations recently, and my spirit was getting weary. So one day while I was praying The Lord Spoke to me plainly and said “Do not fear as I did not give you a spirit of fear, I am with you. Stand up, put your battle gear on, and go into the enemy’s camp and take back what he stole from you!” At this point I was like “Excuse me Lord? “He said “I want you to go into the enemy’s camp and take back what he stole from you!” As you can imagine I was a little shocked by what the Lord was asking me to do, but as I began to pray about it and read several more scriptures, it seemed that everywhere I turned God was telling me to gather my fellow Soldiers and engage the enemy. He said His Blood had already paid the price for me, and I needed to start using that Power now. The time for standing still was gone, the time for letting the enemy stomp all over my inheritance was gone, the time for the enemy running back and forth into my camp at will was gone, and the time for being a slack soldier was gone.

This message is for those out there tired of getting beat on, cut on, slapped on, and picked on by the devil. We should not be running from him, he should be running from us! We are the chosen ones, the Children of the most High God! If you are tired then do something about it! I am not talking about physically fighting the enemy, but spiritually fighting him (and his imps), because we are in a spiritual war *y’all! We are living in the end times, and if you don’t know which side you are on you better choose now (or it will be chosen for you).

Sometimes I think that many in the world really think that all Christian people are soft and can be ran over, but I’m here to tell the devil and his minions that you go right on erroneously thinking that, because when you engage a True Powerful Child of God who knows the power of the Blood of Jesus, then you are in for the fight of your life! I will not be moved! You didn’t put me here, and you can’t take me out! The only thing you can do is cause distractions and make me stronger! I know my place and I know my name is written in the Lambs Book of Life! You can’t take it out! I am like a tree planted by the waters. I am covered by the Blood of Jesus! I am contagiously blessed - those around me reap the benefits of my blessings! The only thing you can do is cause me to thank you for helping make me a better soldier.

For those of you out there going through trials and hardships, please don’t waiver, hide, or run from the enemy -You are more powerful than the kingdom of darkness, and one of the most awesome things you should know is that you are going through, because you are on the righteous path, and all of the things you are going through are all distractions to keep you from focusing on the ultimate prize (God’s Kingdom). If you believe and are ready to engage the enemy and take your life back then please say this prayer, “Lord I am Your End-Times warrior. Use me as Your weapon against the enemy. Let all the enemies that make war with the Lamb be destroyed. I do not war after the flesh but after the spirit. I am Your anointed and You give me great deliverance I have redemption through the blood of Jesus, and I am redeemed from the power of evil.”(Eckert,2008).

What Do You See?

Ezekiel ~"Son of man, you are living among a rebellious people. They have eyes to see but do not see and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious people."~

Psalm 51:10 ~ “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”~

Matthew 7:1 ~”Judge not, that ye be not judged.”~

2 Corinthians 5:17 ~“Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things are passed away; behold, new things have come."~

Hey *Y’all! I pray that this message speaks to someone out there today. The message is something that has been on my heart and spirit lately –truly looking at others with Jesus –filled eyes. Awhile back I was at a local office and I was waiting to be seen, and while I was sitting there a stranger began talking to me, so I turned around to look at him, and what I saw before me was a man who was physically not all that pleasing to the eyes, he was elderly, disheveled, and disfigured but while he was talking to me I could feel the presence of God in the room. This man was so kind, and he even reassured me that I was in the right place to be seen.He was filled with the light of God. I was so touched by this man that when he left the room I literally wondered if anyone else could see him too. After talking with him I began to think about that scripture in Hebrew 13:2 “Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it.” This really got me thinking about how many of us look at other people on a daily basis. How many of us really look at our brothers and sisters with the love of Jesus? How many of us too quickly judge people by how they look, the clothes they wear, the car they drive, etc., etc.? I will raise my hands to these, because I am guilty of this offense too. The world (satan) has many ways to make others feel inferior or not as good as some based on many superficial things. Please don’t get me wrong, there isn't anything wrong with taking care of yourselves, looking nice, and having nice things but if the nice looks and nice things are all you have to offer , you may want to really evaluate your heart and see what’s really there. You can be the most beautiful being on the outside, but if your heart is evil ,and you constantly spew out evil things then your actions say that you belong to the evil one. Fortunately, there is someone (Jesus!) who can give you a true beauty makeover. He can make you over from the inside out. Your entire mind, body, and soul can literally be transformed. You can be a new creature (if you want it.)

I recently prayed for the Lord to make me over and work more on my heart and the things that aren’t right in me verses always looking at my brother or sister’s imperfections. I prayed for him to guide my every word and action and help me bear good fruit for others to eat. Sadly, many are too quick to see the bad things in others verses seeing the good in them; they are too quick to write someone off as worthless. I pray that all of *y’all reading this blog begin to really look at each other with the unconditional love of Jesus Christ. Truly, take the worldly glasses off and open your Jesus- filled eyes and begin to see people’s true hearts and spirits, if their hearts are hard -love them anyway, (even if it means loving them from a distance) but also pray for them -instead of judging them. You never know you just may be the one to help melt their icy cold hearts. I know this is not an easy task but instead of asking “What would Jesus do?” start being proactive and start Doing what Jesus would do.

No Entertainment Tonight!

Mark 2:16-17 ~“When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners? On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”~

Matt 10:7-8 ~"And as ye go, preach, saying, the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give."~

Matthew 15:7-8 ~ "You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:“‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.”~

Psalm 51:10 ~ "Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”~

Hey *Y’all! I pray this message helps minister to someone out there today. Today’s topic is something that seems to be running rampant in society right now. It is the process of entertaining people who are spiritually sick, and others making them feel like they are okay when in actuality they are not. For instance, How many of *y’all know someone that is sweet one moment and then they have a mean nasty attitude the next? How many of *y’all know someone that quotes scriptures one minute and then are violently cursing/fighting the next? How many of *y’all know someone who quotes scriptures about Jesus on their social networking site(s) one day, but cursing and talking about ‘feeling their fury or wrath’ the next? Or know someone who says they have another side to them (alter ego) and some are even bold enough to even name them? How many of *’y’all know someone who says that they know Jesus but their actions say that they belong to the evil one?

Well if you know someone who is like this, you need to know that they may have demon(s) (evil spirits) residing in them, and they need prayer, prayer that helps deliver them, because they are really tormented souls who believe the enemy’s lies that they are not good enough or that they have gone too far in sin, etc. They believe that God doesn’t want them, and many are living their lives in shame. I’m here to tell you to please call on Jesus and ask him to save you! He loves you and wants all of you! The devil is a liar who wants you in hell with him. His end has already been determined, but he is a kamikaze soldier who wants to take as many people to hell with him. If you know someone who is suffering and wants help please pray for them and point them in the right direction, but please don’t entertain them! By entertaining I mean don’t act or pretend that they are sober minded. When we entertain them they won’t change and will probably become worse. Don’t flatter them and make them think that they are okay, because the truth is they are suffering. They need help. Always be real with them, but please do so in love. Don’t correct with the intentions of hurting or shaming them. Allow the Holy Spirit to guide you when helping them.

Why am I speaking on this topic? Because I used to be someone that thought I was alright even though I had a mean and nasty spirit(s) and hurt many people, I was able to justify it in my mind because I was hurting, but thankfully a Child of God recognized and took time out to help me see the light, and finally I was able to see myself, and since I didn’t like what I saw I decided to give my life whole heartedly to Jesus. Now that I am living in the light, I want others to also experience this joy and peace that only Jesus Christ can deliver. Please keep in mind that this is not an overnight process, and all people do not want help –some like where they are and want to keep their demons, but for those who do want deliverance – Come! the Kingdom of God awaits you!

“You Are What You Eat!”

John 6:35 ~ “And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.”~

Galatians 5:22-23 ~ “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.”~

Luke 4:4 ~”And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”~

Happy New Year *Y’all! I pray that this message blesses your spirit! This morning as I was running on the tread mill, I began to think about how so many of us put so much into making our physical bodies healthier and stronger. I mean some of us have the calories of the food we place in our mouths calculated down to the last crumb. Some of us take multi-vitamins, drink plenty of water, and lift umpteen pounds of weights to make our muscles stronger. So many people invest hours of time into developing their bodies.

How many of *y’all know that we have to do the same things for our Spirit man? That we have to also watch what we feed our spirits; for example, if you hang around someone who always talks about others you may be prone to talk about others too, if you hang around someone who curses all the time, then you may be prone to curse too, if you hang around someone who is always miserable then you will probably be miserable too. If all you ever consume are things that are about violence and vulgarity, then you probably participate in those types of mean- spirited activities too. I say all of this to let you know that we have to be just as careful about what we place in our spirits as we do our physical bodies. Yes, God wants us to take care of our physical bodies too, but just like with anything else without God a healthy body without a healthy spirit is a recipe for disaster.

How many of *y’all know someone that appears to have it all together on the outside, but on the inside they are rotten? It seems like everything that spews out of them is foul and putrid? How many of *y’all know someone who dines on the Word only on Sundays, but during the rest of the week they dine on drama? Well according to the Word of God, He wants us to bear good fruit at ALL times not when it’s convenient for us. He understands that we are not perfect, and that we will slip occasionally, but if you are calling yourself a Child of God and all you dine on is hate, anger, un-forgiveness, and malice, then you need to focus on changing your diet and pick up the menu (The Holy Bible) and feed your spirit with the proper nutrients, (fruits of the Spirit). In this daily spiritual battle God is not looking for sometimey, weak, and out of shape Christians. He wants strong, healthy, and powerful people who will run the distance, not someone who will give out of breath after a few miles.

If you are someone who is struggling in feeding your spirit with the proper ingredients, then try reading the Bible daily, fasting, praying, and try dining with other people who have the same diet as you. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do know that we are what we eat, and if you feed your spirit the proper things then you will pass the endurance test, and make it to the finish line to see our Heavenly Father (Jesus)!
