Ever been quick to call out someone else's faults? Jesus reminds us to look at our own flaws first. It's a wake-up call for all of us. "Why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a plank in your own?" This challenges us to lead with humility and grace. We often think we’re clean, but let’s face it—we all have our mess. We saw how th…

Jesus has a great blessing for us, but it isn’t always what we think and it doesn’t come without a cost! To be blessed is to have a deep rooted joy and peace, unmoved by our external circumstances. The only way we can have that is to surrender, we must admit we are helpless without Christ!!! Without humbly understanding only He can save us we will …

Do you know who you are? Before God can bless you, you have to be able to face yourself! It’s only when you admit who you are that God can change you into who you’re supposed to be. Get alone with God and wrestle with Him! Seclusion helps rid us of distraction so we can focus on what the Lord wants to do in our lives. Don’t get discouraged when you…

The false thinking that your life can’t or won’t get any better is a lie from the pit of hell! By faith, whatever situation you’re in can change. The Word tells us that faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen, and that faith come by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Faith activates the very real things G…

Did you know God had a plan in place for your life before you were even born?! Whether or not you know what it is yet or not, doesn’t change the truth that He does!!! God wants us to lean in to Him, to give Him all of our fears and concerns and weaknesses, so that He can show us the calling He has for our lives and equip us to walk it out on a dail…

The devil may want to distract, demotivate, and discourage us, but we’re shouting hallelujah anyhow! The enemy doesn’t know what to do when you respond to your pain with praise. A hallelujah allows us to boast in God and give a joyous praise in song, but maybe you’re still stuck in the mess you’re in because you’ve never bothered to raised up a hal…

Do you allow God’s Word to settle into your life so that it can produce change? Just because people sit in church and hear the gospel doesn’t mean change will take place! The parable of the sower shows us that not only were hearts created by God to bring forth fruit when God’s Word is planted in it, but that not all hearts can be receptive to the t…

Recognizing that something is wrong in our lives doesn’t automatically change that thing! The Bible tells us in James we must set aside and repent of all of the filthiness that sin brings into our lives. True freedom is found in submitting to Gods ways above our own!!!! Then we will be able to eliminate distractions as we make the decision to conti…

It’s time to flip the script! Too many times we get stuck in memories, regrets, and the pains of the past. Paul instructs us in Philippians to press forward, to keep our eyes focused on what’s ahead, and to forget the past!!!! Holding on to unforgiveness, towards ourselves and others, chains us up and places us in bondage. In Christ, we can break f…

Be careful about momentary pleasures that end up becoming a permanent destination! When you want to do your own thing instead of God’s thing, it eventually will bring a great famine to every area of your life. The prodigal son didn’t ask for his inheritance to have a higher standard of living — he was born into the money, he already had servants, h…

In Christ, we are deserving of abundance, provision, and breakthrough, but He won’t bless people He can’t move things through. God wants us to trust Him when it comes to managing the fruit He has brought into our lives! So many things are promised to us in the Word, and there is a choice on our part attached to every one of those promises. God need…

Are you looking for the right thing in the wrong place? The angels asked the women who came to the tomb looking for Jesus, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” What God wants to do in your life will not happen in a dead place. Yoh have to stop trying to go back to the past and fix what used to be! Stop putting your resources into things God…

The Holy Spirit wants to do a mighty work in your life, and God’s going to get rid of everything in your life that’s bringing pollution to your soul! The hardest thing to do is to get people to change — even after God had delivered the Israelites out of Egypt, they were still acting more like Egyptians than Hebrews. You become what you are around! …

When you’re feeling weary of continually telling the Lord “I’ll do better next time,” it’s time to ask Him to do a work in you from the inside out! Until you get a miracle on the inside, you’ll never have any power, joy, fulfillment, or freedom in your life. What good is any external blessing without God’s peace and joy in your heart? The Bible cal…

A successful life is not measured by your popularity or possessions; it’s measured by discovering and working in the divine direction God has for you! God commands us to obey His voice and keep His covenant — you can’t get trapped in comparing yourself to others if you’re going to be used by God! God is calling you to discover His specific vision f…

Are you missing out on the promises of God? The enemy is doing everything in his power to distract you from acting upon what is promised to us in God’s Word! The Bible calls us to fight the good fight of faith, which means we have to take action and refuse to be inactive concerning God’s promises! Plenty of folks know the Word of God, but you won’t…

Before the confidence the Lord has for you can be found, the fear the enemy is using to confuse you must be crushed! The Lord has given you specific gifts and has a specific calling on your life, and there is a difference in being confident in God and being confident in what He’s called you to do. When we’re walking in faith and being both knowers …

We pray because Jesus told us to! His whole life was a model for the intimate power of prayer. Not only does praying encourage us, but it is the foundation for our relationship with God and and is the way we request of the Lord what it is that we need. Jesus gives us instruction on how we should pray too, and all of it rooted in knowing God’s Word.…

Stop letting the enemy build monuments out of things that were only meant to be moments in your life! Satan would love nothing more than for you to remain in a state of depression and hopelessness, and he attempts to keep you there by getting you to believe the lies of Hell. Don’t be a full-time babysitter for the devil’s thoughts! The Word tells u…

The Lord is shifting the things that have deceived you and held you back and He's preparing to take you to another level! Moving into a season of preparation will bring new challenges — it may have seemed easy to fight battles in the valley, and as you move into new heights, it’s going to be harder to operate with less oxygen! But God wants you to …

The Lord wants us to expand our territory, and enlarge our boundaries, so that we can have greater influence for Him!! Don’t fall in to the mindset that you are a benchwarmer but make up your mind to be a boundary buster! Speak only the truth of God’s word, refuse to remain in your comfort zone, and sing praises to Him at all times!!! God wants to …

Just because God’s favor is on your life doesn’t mean you won’t visit some valleys, but there is a day coming where you will be overwhelmed by the promises God has given you, not the pain of your current situation! Something in your future will erase the pain of your past. God will bless you as you choose to stay in faith and refuse to walk in bitt…

The Lord is calling you today to move out of your fear and back into faith! Just because you have mighty victories doesn’t mean you won’t visit low valleys, and the enemy of our soul will send messengers with an Ahab and Jezebel spirit to do whatever he can to keep you in fear, doubt, and despair. Take your eyes off yourself, be a hearer and doer o…

If you haven’t noticed, this world has gone crazy!! Peace seems like it is hard to come by, but thankfully God’s Word shows us exactly how to have a perfect peace no matter what’s going on!!!! Having a peace that isn’t based on circumstance is worth more than anything the world can offer. The Bible tells us to pray, to set pride aside and tell the …

It’s time for the church to take a stand and declare that we are NOT FOR SALE! We are called to know and follow God’s Word without compromise! Many churches out there have become one of Satan’s greatest tools for deception since folks go expecting to hear the truth and end up hearing a lie from someone posing as an ambassador of Christ. The true be…

We live in a transpiritual state when we allow our feelings to create our identity and alter reality. Step out of reasoning and dive in to the biblical truths that give us identity and purpose. God is our creator and the authority on identity. The only way to truly walk in that God given identity is to look into the Word and see what it says we are…
