Strength and Courage: Expecting a Deliverer




This has been a tough year with many changes personally and  across the globe. Disasters, confusion, foolish men and women that are proud of what they ought to be ashamed of. If I didn’t know any better, I would think that I am dreaming and got stuck in the twilight zone. But this is our world today. It is a different world than any other. Some people have no moral compass, are ruthless, merciless and their hatred is so intense that they march to the drumbeat of deception and death. I really didn't expect some leader to come out against this chaos and deliver us. There is no man/woman who can truly deliver you from chaos that is going on in this world or see you through your own chaotic world.  Among all this chaos I found strength and courage that I didn't realize that I had before, and I've learned to take it one day at a time.  

Are you expecting someone to deliver you from your own chaotic world? You also can choose to let Jesus, the Deliverer, to redeem you, strengthen you and give you the courage that you need for today. Please, don’t worry about tomorrow or the things in the past. Neither you nor I can change the past or control tomorrow. Your mind can focus on the past but the past is just that the past. It is what it is. You can be redeemed from your past, but you cannot change it. Settle your mind on today, tomorrow is not here, and the past is gone. There is still hope, love, grace, mercy and kindness left in this world, and it comes  from within you. Trust Him for the victory that you so desire and expect Jesus to deliver you today, for you are His beloved. "But we are citizens of heaven, and it is from there that we expect a Deliverer, the Lord Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus the Christ)". Philippians 3:20 CJB

Question: What steps are you taking to protect your mind and guard your heart?  See yourself, know yourself and change yourself through the grace of God for your Deliverer is here. 


Dear Heavenly Father, I asked in the name of Jesus Christ that you help me to see myself today. You are my Deliverer and Savior of this world.  Nothing can happen to me without your knowledge and understanding. Please provide your blessings for me today and protect me from the Evil One.

Turning Your Pain into Power

Image
  "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore,  for the former things have passed away (R evelation 21:4 ESV)." T he journey of life has many twists and turns. There are times when a turn leads us to a place of pain. But, we have the ability to used that pain to catapult ourselves to the place of power. The loss of my younger sister was very painful. She unexpectedly died. I was hurt, cried for days, and thought my chest would burst open from the pain of her departure to be with Jesus.  Not only was she my sister, but my friend. Someone you couldn't help but love! She was loving, kind, compassionate, and caring.  I don't know a sweeter person than my sister, Janice (or JanBaby as our family referred to her).  She started singing at the age of three. You could feel the power of her love deep in your soul, down to your "bones", when she lifted her voice, and breathed ...

God Doesn't Err and Trouble Doesn't Last Always

Image
Your life has many winding roads and complicated stops.   Jesus said, "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world (John 16:33)." When you read the verse, your thought might be, "If Jesus has overcome the world, why does my world feels so broken?" In t he circle of life we have beginnings, endings, and everything in between.  The ebbs  and flows of life bring waters of both joy and pain. But, with God's guiding hands, it flows in a way that moves us upstream to a place of peace, blessings, rest and trust.  You may walk through the great darkness ravine, but you will get through it, because God's got you!    We are overcomers in mind, spirit and soul. Whatever you are going through, it too shall pass.  L ife may not be fair, but God is fair.  Psalm 56 , the psalmist declares to God, “ You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle...

The Reward of Persistent Prayer

Image
    [Jeremiah 29:12-13 (CJB)]: "When you call to me and pray to me, I will listen to you. When you seek me, you will find me, provided you seek from me wholeheartedly;" Dear Ladies, I write this blog with you and the many prayers that you have prayed in mind. Luke 18:2-5] "In a certain town, there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected other people. There was also in that town a widow who kept coming to him and saying, 'Give me a judgment against the man who is trying to ruin me.' For a long time he refused; but after awhile, he said to himself, 'I don't fear God, and I don't respect other people; but because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see to it that she gets justice - otherwise, she'll keep coming and pestering me till she wears me out!"  God is not a cruel judge. When we persist in prayer, we are not pestering Him! Jesus told his disciple this parable, in order to impress on them that they   must always keep praying   a...
