Pay attention

God is talking to His children and if you don’t pay attention you’re gonna mix His instructions.

God always tells what He is going to do and He shares it with His servants. This is His invitation to you to get in on His plan.

He initiates the conversation and hopes that you pay attention when He speaks. Are you paying attention?

Shut up!

Shut yo mouth! If you got something you need to say give it to God and let it go. I know this is hard but I’m gonna tell you why it’s so important to not say everything out loud.

2020 is the year of the mouth. Since God spoke us into existence we have the same authority He has on earth. He did and we can do it. There is life and death in your words- Prov 18:21 you can speak life over your situation or you can speak death over it. Which do you want? I want good things so I speak positive life over me and my family. This has been the hardest adjustment for me because I have always been a very blunt person. I would tell you how pathetic you looked for stalking someone that doesn’t care for you. I still will but I won’t tell you you’re pathetic bc I don’t really think you are. Nobody is! Except those that do not know Christ- this includes the fakes and liars. That is one reason to keep your mouth shut. The next is a doozy!!

Spiritual warfare is going haywire right now and so much so many think they are going crazy. Spirits whisper junk in your ear that doesn’t line up with God’s word. We give them ammunition though when we say any junk out loud that is not of God. Stinking thinking that is spoke into existence. Want those demons to leave you alone? Shut up!! Every time you speak death over your situation (negativity) you’re giving satan stuff to use against you. You know that anger, jealousy, pain, hurt feelings etc are causing you to say this junk so rebuke it and take all your cares and cast them upon the Lord.

Father, thank you for loving us. Thank you for adopting us into Your fam. We love you and ask You to bind our tongues where nothing that doesn’t glorify You comes out of us. In Jesus Name~ Amen

Discerning spirits

This is hard for me to talk about because I only know because God taught me. I realize there is no better professor than He, however, I don’t have every name for every spirit.

When this is a gift you have or if your own spirit needs to be tested that warfare becomes intense. I know what these spirits feel like bc I have encountered them. If you’ve ever been depressed you were taunted by a spirit. The spirit of depression anxiety – yep, it’s a spirit. I thought I was going crazy until God took me to a few sermons and then I found out I was in spiritual warfare so I could be tested.

I had to kill my flesh in order to notice and understand exactly what spirit was hovering around me. These spirits are Satans goons, as I call them. They look like people without skin, and they are dark. I know how that sounds but I’ve seen them. If I hadn’t of seen them I prolly would have killed myself because the headaches were so bad and so was their taunting. They wanted me to kill myself so I wouldn’t walk into my calling with Jesus. Suicide is a spirit and it has a few side kicks- depression and anxiety. You’ve had to pray your way out of situations and events that made you want to leave this world. Don’t ever get that way again, it’s a spirit trying to take you out. Addiction is a spirit and it takes some rehab, counseling, and much prayer to get through this. Some spirits are stronger than other ones. Then, there are the tag-team spirits such as the deadly 3 above. (Suicide, depression/anxiety and fear).

Satans only agenda is to kill, steal and destroy. There are some spirits I have learned that I have to fast to get rid of them. I will be fasting again in order to kill my flesh. If you’re facing something trying and all these negative spirits are lingering on you fast! Giving up food for a few/day(s) isn’t going to kill anyone. We all have reserve energy and it’s called fat- you won’t die without food for a day to get closer to God. He will even help you do it if you ask. Ok, back to kill, steal and destroy – thieves don’t rob empty vaults. Stan can’t kill you but he will try and wear you out, (with the spirits). And he will do anything he can to destroy your relationship with Christ.

There are many people going through some heavy warfare right now. Put in the armor of God. Ephesians 6 and wear it proudly. Satan unleashed more goons in 2020 bc of Gods great plan. Learn what is around you and bind and loosen it. Identify the spirit and then say “I bind you, anxiety, in the name of Jesus and loose you back to hell where you belong!” It’s that easy and we have all authority bc Jesus gave it to us. Luke 9:1.

At first I didn’t know all of this but God has shown me what is a spirit and what is my flesh. Depression, meanness, negativity, and suicide were of the ones released by Satan to cause tragedy this year against God’s children. I have prayed (outloud) for every spirit not of God to get off of me and take its butt back to hell. It doesn’t always work and that is why we need to discern what spirit is what.

Father, thank you for loving us when we make it so hard at times. Help us see who is good and who is bad for us according to their spirits and their flesh. Give us Your discernment, Lord. In Jesus name- Amen

Stop complaining

We all get disappointed bc we have put more faith in people than we have God. I have surely been disappointed and wanted to complain … I have done it. I was a person that complained but I won’t anymore. I’m gonna tell you why too. When we complain and it comes out of our mouth satan can use it against us. There is life and death in your words. Satan is the destroyer and wants to kill you. He can so he tries to wear you out with his lies. All that junk being told to you in your head is one of his goons whispering in your ear. Tell them to get down!! Send them back to hell!! You have all the authority in this realm but satan or his goons. If you aren’t praying about it it shouldn’t be coming out of your mouth. Remember, to hear God you have to shut your mouth and get out of His way!!

We all want instant gratification but God doesn’t work on our time. In fact, He has no time and no time constraints, only we do. Some folks are tore up. I know I was – from the floor up but God fixed me. He can fix you too but you have to get up and do your part. Some folks aren’t healed bc they like being broke. Don’t be comfortably broken when the wounded Healer wants to heal you. He is still very much in the miracle business!! I know this bc I am one of His miracles. I shouldn’t be doing any of this, and I jogged 2 miles this morning !! I had to learn to walk again! It took me 7 years to get here but don’t you dare give up on God bc He has never given up on you!!

If you don’t have anything nice to say just shut up!

Philippians 2:14-16 New Living Translation (NLT)

Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. Hold firmly to the word of life; then, on the day of Christ’s return, I will be proud that I did not run the race in vain and that my work was not useless.

It is Satan and all his workers that criticizedon’t be one of them. Jesus is the light of the world and He lives on the inside of His children so let Him shine. Hold firm to Jesus – He is the living Word of life.

Father, we thank you for us opening our eyes today. We praise you for being the Light that surrounds us in all the darkness. Thank you for showing us a way out. Lord, lift the veil that covers our eyes so You may be understood. We love You! Thank You for loving us. Be with our troops, our leaders and hold them close to You for protection and guidance. Set Your angels before us. Help us turn from our sinful ways. Show us our sins as we commit them. In Jesus name ~ amen.

Love

Jeremiah 7:13 NIV~ while you were doing all these things, declares the Lord, I spoke to you again and again but you did not listen; I called you but you did not answer.

Reading that verse hurts my heart and brings up so many times I was not paying attention. I will never move again without God but I have. I have messed up royally but He still loves me. I love Him too and He is a good, good Father. He doesn’t hold grudges like people. I was a grudge holder and now it cracks me up with folks do this. Why? God forgives you so why not forgive others ? To be Christian and to hold a grudge is a sin! The wage of sin is death! Yes, Jesus died for our sins… however, a portion of your heart dies when you live in sin. It is hard to get it right again, too.

If there was ever a child He should have lost patience with it was me. I was such a lost person. Even after my death, after meeting Jesus, I was still wretched if I told the honest to God truth. Just because we try to do things right we really can’t all the way without Him. I was you so I know this to be the truth.

There were so many things I doubted. There was so much I hated. There were so many I couldn’t stand. If it can be done I have done it. Affair – yep. Married and divorced- yep. Lied- yep. Drugs- yep. I thought I was a decent person too and now I laugh about that. I literally just chuckled while writing that. I praise Him for not giving up on me.

Can you imagine God walking into the Garden of Eden and asking “where are you?” Adam and Eve had sinned and were hiding; they knew they were naked. I love being naked and raw with God bc He is really the only person I can trust with all my ugly. He loves me anyway and I have been the outcast and totally unloved by people I never thought would walk away from me. God will never forsake me and the love He encapsulates me in brings tears to my eyes! I don’t even feel weak crying out to God; anymore. I have! You are not alone. We all feel weak and it is ok to be weak to God. No matter what He will not leave you; even if you make your bed in hell. I know that too bc He snatched me from hell.

I am so grateful for His love and His tenderness that resides in me.

I never knew what mean was until brain injury. I was mean but that is when people started to be mean to me because I lost all my credibility. When your brain doesn’t work people treat and look at you differently. I was nobody but now I am a King’s Kid! I am His and that is all that matters to me. Nobody will ever be mean to me again without me telling my Daddy. He saw it then and He sees it now. We choose to forgive but I believe everyone will pay for the wrongs they commit here in some way or another. You may not have to go to hell literally but I bet you’ve been through some version of it here on earth. The great thing about God is He will always take you back. Be His prodigal and never forget your first love!
