Held Captive!

Say it! Do it! Buy it! Smoke it! Eat it! Drink it! Take it! Charge it! Spend it! This is what we do with our lives when we over indulge in what the world calls 'Being Happy"! Our hearts become callous and disengaged of excessive acts of "It's all about me"!

God says “Believe” in me and all these things will be added unto you! 
I was in captivity to many chemicals that swelled my face immediately upon exposure 2017
Matthew 6:31-34 AMPC 
31 Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we going to have to wear?
32 For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all.
33 But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.
34 So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.
His way is much easier and peaceful to travel on! There is no comparison, but clearly distinct and less dutiful for us. Lean on, Trust in and Rely on Jesus, and He will do the rest! Once again your duty is to “Believe”!

Today is Good Friday! As Jesus walked this earth and His day was fast approaching for His Crucifixion! Scripture tells us He set His face to go to Jerusalem! 
Luke 9:51-52 AMPC 
51 Now when the time was almost come for Jesus to be received up [to heaven], He steadfastly and determinedly set His face to go to Jerusalem.
52 And He sent messengers before Him; and they reached and entered a Samaritan village to make [things] ready for Him;
He stayed the course with a strong determination and faithfulness all because of His Love He has for His children! Along His journey to Jerusalem, Jesus made a few stops. His demonstration of how and who He healed is phenomenal to read about, less known to observe. I know that to be in His presence, had to be impacting and in "Awe" of the power and belief in God to perform these acts of Love!
Luke 13:10-17 AMPC 
10 Now Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.11 And there was a woman there who for eighteen years had had an infirmity caused by a spirit (a demon of sickness). She was bent completely forward and utterly unable to straighten herself up or to look upward.12 And when Jesus saw her, He called [her to Him] and said to her, Woman, you are released from your infirmity!13 Then He laid [His] hands on her, and instantly she was made straight, and she recognized and thanked and praised God.14 But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, There are six days on which work ought to be done; so come on those days and be cured, and not on the Sabbath day.15 But the Lord replied to him, saying, You playactors (hypocrites)! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead it out to water it?16 And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?17 Even as He said this, all His opponents were put to shame, and all the people were rejoicing over all the glorious things that were being done by Him.
As He walked on this earth casting out legions of demons, curing lepers, the women who was bent over for 18 years, as well as the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years, raising the dead, and much, much more, is not impossible, but we can't do it without the Gift of His power within us! He makes the deposit in us; and we receive it and go about blessing others with it! 

This Easter and every Easter reflect on how Great Jesus suffered so we can have freedom from oppression and sin that leads to eternal death!

ALL Things Become NEW!

Every "New Year" brings new things, but we must transform our minds and hearts to let go of the old and embrace the new. Once a door is closed in the spirit, it cannot be opened, yet we hold on to the past that keeps our minds trapped to something that is debilitating rather than enlightening. Thoughts and words have power, and scripture tells us in Proverbs 18:21, "Death and Life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." It has been studied that words of encouragement brings confidence in a person, good mental health, they believe in themselves to do well in life, they have better physical health, are more resilient, have good coping methods, know they are loved,  and have a calm spirit. Negative words are harsh and cause anger in a person, stress, they lose confidence and self-worth, they give up and feel there is no hope for them in anything they do, and no one loves them; in addition they are prone to depression and a...

A Lost Service?

There are so many things lacking in our lives today and the only thing that is going to fill that void is serving Yahweh and serving others. Volunteering and serving others and Yahweh (which he called himself [a servant]) breaks that spirit of selfishness, self gratification, and self destruction.   Teens volunteering which builds character and great leaders  Scripture reads in Proverbs 16:27 Ethiopian Bible: 27  An ungodly man digs up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. Which translates a ungodly man looks for trouble and manipulates others to do unlawful    acts. Many have heard this verse as, “Idle hands is the devil’s workshop.” Hands represent honest work in the Bible, or doing what is right in the eyes of Yahweh and man. The Bible also speaks of unclean hands that do bad things or are works of the devil. If you are sitting around in your feelings, get out and volunteer, help someone, serve at a food pantry, start a neighborhood garden; someth...

Let the "Light" Shine

Early Parchment of The Constitution Early American Settlers We are dealing with devils in the leadership in America and here’s the hypocrisy of it all, ALL of them that has been in office from the beginning of America’s birth, have overlooked lynching, starvation, terrorism of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK), lying, hate, sexual impurity, killing defenseless woman and children, just deep oppression - and want to say America was founded on Biblical foundations. Now whose Bible or whose Yahweh is this that promotes violence, evil, hate, and injustice? Yahweh gave Moses laws, instructions and promises to give to the people to live by and many call it the Ten Commandments, which Yahweh gave Moses hundreds of laws and there is no place, I have read, that this is the ten commandments.  What I read is that Yahweh gave them unto the people so that they will not sin and fear Him and obey His Commandments with favor, which is life, in the land. But this is just the beginning of the laws Yahweh gave ...
