 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:  But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.                                                                                                                               Luke 22:31,32

Good Morning! Today is a day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. I was blessed this morning with the peace of God concerning the time that we are in. The blessing reached me through the word of God out of Luke Chapter 22 starting in verse 31 through verse 32. It paints an image that while Jesus was dealing with Simon(Peter) that the desire of the enemy(devil) was to sift him  as as wheat. Think about it when you sifted as wheat you will be tossed  all over the place. As a result of the process the wheat lands everywhere. Moving through the rest of this scripture Jesus informs Peter that he will let Him down . Our Lord prayed for his faith which would included his conversion to Christ in order to strengthen us.(brethren)

The image that the Lord impressed upon me is the victory  belongs to Him.  He is in control. As a result of it He will get the glory. There are many images presented to us in His word that reinforce this truth(Jonah 2:3-9, 2 Chronicles 7:14 Matthew 21:28-31) Be encouraged that the image presented by the god of this world is a distorted one. It is completely upside down from the image presented by the word of God . Our end(future) is greater than our past.(Revelation 7:9) Fall on those knees and bless Him!!  We gonna be allright !!Amen

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;  And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.                                                                                           Revelation 7:9-10

Peace

 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.                                               James 3:17-18

God Bless. While in my morning meditation I asked God to encourage me with a word so that I can go into this day aligned with him. This scripture in James Chapter 3 filled me with great joy. Understand the times we are in it is challenging to exit your door to do anything.You see it Covid 19, institutional racism, death, addiction , and of course mental illness. This morning the word of God informed me that the battle that is in front of me is not mine but His. Encourage yourself today with the wisdom from above because it is pure full of mercy with good fruit and without hypocrisy. It says the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace with them that make peace. Wherever you go today find peace so that you can minister to any situation that presents itself to you.  God Bless. Amen

What!!!

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.  And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.                                                                    Revelation 6:1,8-9                                                                                                                                                                                        
What!!! No way not the lamb! why would he open a seal that commits a fourth of the earth to death and hell. Understand and know that death is defined this way; the termination of life. The rider with death on that pale horse is Hades also known as Hell. There are many definitions of hell but the summary is this ; "hell," the place of disembodied spirits. The inhabitants of sheol are "the congregation of the dead". 
The good news for all who have confessed Jesus as Lord  is that His word is alive . Given to us through the Apostle Paul in the book of Romans it reads as this; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.  For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10: 9-13
Today this word comes alive in me to live. The living word of God also instructs us to understand and know that we make the choice to live every day. It reads like this;I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, [that] I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:  That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, [and] that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he [is] thy life, and the length of thy days: Deuteronomy 30:19-20. 
Please be encouraged that He who has allowed the supernatural plaque to envelope the earth Has given us His word on how to proceed through it . It has gotten my attention . Trust and know that God intents is to dwell with us forever. Lets not get fooled by the father of lies in this hour that death is upon us. No. It is time to live. Amen! Amen

BLM 1

Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

2 Genesis 7

In this passage of scripture which is the foundation of the major faiths in the world suggest that the breath of life which we all have is presented and produced by God. As men we are granted with the purpose and power to protect, guard and take dominion over everything that God has created. (Genesis 1:27). There was no instruction to destroy what He created which includes other men. 

All of us who are blessed with darker colored skin who are decedents of Africa have meaning to. In other words BLACK LIVES MATTER.  

The images in the world over the last four hundred years  seem to indicate that men of African descent are animals who are not worthy of God's original intentions for man ; to have dominion over His creation and to be fruitful and multiply. Over the past four centuries the intentions of the Europeans who have inhabited the Americas is to take away and tramp on all of the God given rights to all of the decedents  of Africa who were brought to become there servants and property. The very nature of their actions is still with us and present today. The evil of the European descendants to African men and women is deeply inherited in their souls here in America. May God have mercy on their souls. Amen.

Death

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God.  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.  And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. Rev 21:3-7

Visiting the living word of God (Bible) I was impressed greatly by the account in Revelation 21 starting in verse 3 as it presents us with an image of death. God created us  so that he may dwell with us throughout eternity. What a powerful revelation of what the results will be when we enter into the presence of God. The witness of this virus provides us with a reality that death at any time can come and visit  us. Ask yourself are you prepared to enter in the presence of God. Jesus will receive us on the other side. These living words from Revelation 3 gives us an image and the reality concerning our transition into eternity. It reads:  And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.  Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.  Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels Rev 3:1-7. For all of us who have not transitioned into eternity the living word reminds us to hold fast to what we believe and repent (turn away)  we need to shut down the noise and prepare ourselves to reside in the presence of our Holy  God. Amen.

Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake. Psalm 44:26

Warrior

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go   Joshua 1:9

The term “Warrior” is referred to in Websters dictionary a person engaged in some struggle or conflict (warfare). Today I am grateful to those who have taken on the warrior mantle and put their lives on the line to battle this invisible supernatural enemy of our human existence. I bless God for His supernatural spirit of love which rest in each one of these warriors. Each one deserves to honor (value) worthy of their efforts to engage and save the lives of their fellow man/woman. I am moved by the courage of these individuals in risking their lives. I am also encouraged by the supernatural spirit of the American and Global  communities to continue exercising the mitigation  necessary to protect one another. God bless each of the Warriors. God Bless America and the World. Amen

Overwhelmed

Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends...…………………. John 15:13

The work of those in the medical community and the first responders are a blessing in this sea of illness and death. Challenges presented to us by some leaders are becoming an hindrance to the valuable efforts made  in this trying time. In essence this valuable individuals are overwhelmed with the challenge to mitigate the death and illness.. The victory necessary for the American people starts with each one of us . When we align ourselves with the true nature of who are and the spirit of God  inside of us it  will bring life instead of death.

2 Chronicles 7:14

if my people who are called by my name. will, humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then i will hear from heaven,and i will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

2 Chronicles 7:14

Covid 19 Has manifested  itself in the Earth and has become an enemy to God and His greatest creation man .Our humanity has been shaken by this supernatural event and it will change the course of our lives forever. This day i emplore  all of us in the body of our Lord and saviour Jesus the Christ fo find the good in this day and begin to turn from our wicked ways  and hear from heaven . To embrace this moment through prayer and fasting and empower the supernatural spifit of  God to heal our lands. There is a place in the writings of Matthew where he presents us with an image from the greatest Prophet ever known (sorry Nostrodamus) that presents us with the key to end this pandemic. In the twelth chapter starting in verse 25 Jesus presents us with the key.

Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.

If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand? 

And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges. 

But if it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

“Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can plunder his house.(Matthew 12:25-29). The victory belongs to Jesus and Him alone. The more we allow Jesus to be victorious in our lives the greater salvation comes. Lets remember he and his image in the world is to save it and not condem it 

Prayer 3

And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.  And Jesus answering saith unto them , Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, What things so ever ye desire, when ye pray. believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them. 

Mark 11:21-24 

Today on this day March 17 2020 in the middle of all the global challenges  we are presented with God is still on the throne. He is the great I AM. He is all knowing and all powerful and once we embrace who he really is it will change our lives. Psalm 91:7 says this; A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. I will on this day believe His word concerning what I pray . Believe Him that whatever concerns us with this global pandemic , our finances, our relationships, our communities our nation and our homes it will go by way of the sea away from us. God I don't believe what men say I believe your word out of Mark 11, 2 Chronicles 7: 14, Psalm 91:7 John 3:16 John 1:14 Lord Jesus I will humble myself and pray concerning this land today that me and my seed will live Deuteronomy 30:19 Amen

The Beginning of the End

The Beginning of the End

When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!”

I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. ........................................................................................................................………..

Revelation 6:7-8

Wow this passage of the word of God provides us with a sign and declaration that He will devote a quarter of the world to death and hell and the grave at this present time.  With all of this he is presenting an image to the world to get us to change our minds. According to His wisdom He uses His displays of power justly over all. Merciful towards the good and with patience or longsuffering towards his enemies.(non believers). Understand and know that the challenges we see in the earth are there to get our attention. Amen
