Forgive and Forget?

Constantly telling someone what they are not does not boost their morale, it lowers their self-esteem. That saying, “sticks and stones may break my bones; but names will never hurt me” - names do hurt and can go deep in our hearts that linger too long in most of us until we get to know Jesus! 

Sticks and stones do break your bones and can even kill you, but so do words - they don’t physically kill you; but they kill you emotionally and spiritually!

When we are a born again Christians, we die to self and are resurrected in Christ as a new creature that puts our broken spirit back together little by little, which translates from Glory to Glory! 

Wonders happen through small steps; not leaps and bounds!  (Words of Wisdom from The Holy Spirit)


Now I’m going to advise those who are reading this and are parents, assess your childhood and how your parents made you feel (Good or bad) and truly listen to your words when you correct your child and become angry with them! What was instilled in you comes out and it is a viscous cycle of more broken spirits and a low self esteem generation!




Now I am going to ask you to do what Jesus commands us to do and that is forgive those who hurt you and pray for those who curse you so that He can forgive you of your sins and you can live with a heart that is full of righteous doing, saying and living! Whereas, if you do not forgive, you are tied emotionally to that person from the hurt and pain. That’s why Jesus tells us to forgive so you have freedom from it and and you can show love instead of anger and resentment to others! 

Matthew 6:14-15 AMPC 

14 For if you forgive people their trespasses [their reckless and willful sins, leaving them, letting them go, and giving up resentment], your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15 But if you do not forgive others their trespasses [their reckless and willful sins, leaving them, letting them go, and giving up resentment], neither will your Father forgive you your trespasses.

Forgiveness is healing and makes for a glad heart and a healthy being!

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 ...
