THE SPIRITUAL EFFECTS OF BEING OBEDIENT

So........I do have a testimony, a testimony of what it feels like to be obedient to Gods word, and how He always answers any questions I ask! In yesterdays post I wrote about how God laid on my heart that I should try to reconcile with the person who is angry at me, try to make amends, be the peacemaker! I also wrote that the old me WOULD HAVE NEVER done ANYTHING like that! I knew I had to be obedient! I felt nervous, but I know I didn't want to chicken out! I am not a coward anymore, the prideful spirit I once had has been cast out! I prayed that God give me the words to say, I asked Him to take away the nervous feeling! I told myself that God was always with me, He hasn't failed me yet! I reminded myself that God is in control of this situation, I prayed that he protect my heart and feelings from whatever hurtful things that might of been said! You see, I knew I couldn't face that situation on my own! If I had taken that into my own hands, if I spoke my own words, said and felt things out of an emotional state, instead of a spiritual state, I would have messed things up TERRIBLY! I would probably be on the streets right now, or worse IN JAIL! God answered my prayer, He gave me peace, took away the nervous feelings, and when she got home, waited until she got settled and just went for it! God gave me the confidence! He instilled it in me with His word, you see, I already knew I had the victory, I already knew that everything would work out for my good, no matter the response, no matter how the conversation was going to go, I already knew God had worked it out, all He was waiting for was my OBEDIENCE to His word! I started the conversation, and was met with opposition! I sincerely apologized, and was told it meant nothing! I told her I loved her, and was thrown back doubt and anger! I was then told that I wasn't wanted here, and that I had to get out, and several other things, but I stood strong! Little did she know I was standing on a SOLID ROCK! She doesn't know that Jesus is my rock, and that I am rooted and grounded in Him! I wasn't filled with fear over being away from my children (because she thinks I'm leaving here without them), I didn't have any fear of being homeless (because God is faithful, and I know He will never do anything to hurt me, and I believe I will receive everything I have prayed for, and God supplies ALL of our needs!). I told her that I wanted us to be ok before I leave (I didn't brag about the miracle God is about to perform in my life, I actually felt bad for her!). I told her that I didn't want to leave this house with there still being bad feelings between us, and that was meant with negativity! Needless to say, I survived that conversation, I went back into my room filled with hope and joy, instead of fear and pain! I walked out of the kitchen with more power and endurance to stay on this path God has laid out for me! I left that kitchen with a stronger desire to be more and more obedient! I never thought being obedient could feel sooo good!! IT IS AN OVERWHELMING, AWESOME FEELING!! I sat down and thanked God for being with me, for seeing me through that talk! After my kids went to bed I got down on knees and thanked God!! I thanked Him for making me a person of integrity, for rebuilding me from the ground up, I thanked Him for trying me in the fire! I thanked Him for everything He has done in my life, and for everything He is about to do! I started to think about everything He has done so far, and I was OVERWHELMED! THEN.....I ASKED HIM IF HE WAS PROUD OF ME!! I told God that I was proud of myself, and I thanked Him for giving me the courage to do what I couldn't and WOULDN'T of done on my own! I didn't expect God to use His real voice and say to me "Yeah daughter, you did good tonight, I'm proud of you!" LOL! I don't think our human ears could handle the actual voice of God! I ended my prayer, turned on the Playstation (yes, yes, I am a 34 year old women who is a gamer! lol!! My mother can't stand it!), I opened up Instagram on my phone because I look at it while my game loads......and a few posts down I see a meme that Pastor Keion Henderson put up.....and I kid you not, this is what it said.....get ready.......remember now, I asked God if he was proud of me.....this meme said "IF YOUR LOOKING FOR REASSURANCE TONIGHT, THIS IS IT, YOU'RE GOING TO BE OKAY, BLESSINGS ARE COMING YOUR WAY, GOD IS PROUD OF YOU FOR STAYING STRONG! EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT!!!" I thought I was going to fall out of the chair!! It was UNBELIEVABLE! SUPERNATURAL!! I just looked up to the heavens, I was at a loss for words!! UTTERLY SPEECHLESS! All I could do was thank Him, over and over and over!!! I pray and hope you get the importance of what can happen by being obedient to what God wants us to do! We have to do what He asks without delay! I pray and hope that you get the message that reading Gods word is absolutely vital to this Christian walk, how else are we going to hear our instructions from God! This may be a little thing to some, BUT IT IS HUGE AND REAL TO ME! Allow God to make the changes He needs to make in you, so that He can unlock your blessings from heaven! DON'T DELAY! God is not slack concerning us, and we shouldn't be with Him! I love you to life!! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE!! REPENT, SURRENDER ALL TO HIM, AND READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ THE WORD OF GOD EVERYDAY!!!

Part 2 later this afternoon!!

TAKING A STEP IN OBEDIENCE

Sooo......This evening is going to be a big one for me. As you know from earlier posts, I have done wrong in the house that me and my children live in, and I was given until October 1st to move out! God has been working on my character, working on my insides, on that day I thought God was going to swoop down and all at once give me and my children a home, with everything in it! Now, don't get me wrong, He could of done that if He wanted to, but where would the lesson be in that! That day I sat outside, and waited for the lady of the house to come home so that we could talk a little. Now, the person I USED to be, operating in the flesh, would of walked up to the auto repair shop (where my unregistered car is) wrote a bad check to get it out, packed all of me and my kids belongings, and left out of this house with no where to go, out of pride! God was stretching me, He wanted to see if I was TRULY faithful, God wanted to see if I REALLY TRUSTED Him concerning this situation! I was never a person who had the courage to say, I'M WRONG, or to humble myself in ANY WAY AT ALL, but I did, and He has made it so I could stay here with my children! Now, since then, I have been staying out of her way, I haven't talked to her face to face since then, and we live in the same house!! Today, during my time with God, I was watching a video of Joyce Myers preaching about faith! Faith is praying and believing, but she also spoke on RELEASING our faith! She brought up the point that we should ask God for the things we want and need, yes, but in order to operate in true faith, we can't come to the alter with unforgiveness in our hearts! I AGREED, like YES I DON'T HAVE ANY! Right, but then she says, "You have to be a peace maker as well". God is really big on peace, where there is peace there is blessing! I have to make this right with her this evening, that is what God put on my heart today, and it's heavy! Now, the devil will try to put negative thoughts in my head like, her rejecting me, saying mean and nasty things to me, kicking me out anyway, calling me a bad mom, EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN! You see, the devil doesn't want me to take this obedient step today! He knows that it will only strengthen me, and unlock the blessings God has for me and my family....but I am not worried, I am confident, you know why, BECAUSE GOD HAS ALREADY GIVEN ME THE VICTORY IN THIS SITUATION! I already know it's going to work out, I already know this will have a positive outcome, I already know it will work out for my good! This is the time to put my real faith into action! God is stretching me, this is a big moment in my development in Christ! Coming from being a prideful person, who never thought I had to apologize, refusing to do so, just avoiding and running away from situations, never making things right, taking matters into my own hands. To a person of integrity, to a person who has the God given courage to face things head on, to trust that He will give me the words to say, to trust that He has my best interest in mind, to help me become a stronger person! God will be with me, He will protect my heart and mind, He will give me the words to say to her today! It's easy to know you already have the victory, but TAKING THE STEP, making the move, being obedient is the true test! Make the step, and God has the rest handled!!! So I will have a great testimony tomorrow about what happened tonight! I am excited, I asked God to make me a better person, to prepare me for the blessings He has for me, and this is apart of it! He as answering my prayers, God is faithful, I just have to hold up my end! GOD I THANK YOU FOR STRETCHING ME, I THANK YOU FOR TRYING ME IN THE FIRE! I THANK YOU FOR DEVELOPING ME INTO THE PERSON YOU WANT ME TO BE, INTO A PERSON YOU CAN TRUST TO DO YOUR WILL! GOD I THANK YOU FOR THE WILL TO BE OBEDIENT TO YOUR WORD! IN JESUS NAME AMEN! 
I love you to life!!! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVERY IMAGINE!!!

THE DANGERS OF 'JUST ONCE'

Soooo!!......IT'S GONNA BE GOOD ONE TODAY! I want to talk about the BIGGEST LIE the devil will try to deceive us with! The lie I think has caused 99.9% of back sliding cased in the Christian community, INCLUDING MYSELF on SEVERAL OTHER OCCASIONS! The lie.....JUST ONCE, JUST ONE TIME! OHHHH MY GOODNESS! This came up in the first sentence of the devotional I read this morning, the title of the devotional was NO COMPROMISE!! WHEEEW!!! I have allowed myself to be misled with this lie ( in the past) to many times to count! The devil will try to tell you, JUST DO IT ONE TIME, IT WON'T AFFECT YOU! IT'S JUST ONE TIME, YOU CAN GO BACK TOMORROW! Have you ever found yourself in that JUST ONE TIME kind of situation! The devil tempted Jesus with it in the garden, so I KNOW he has tried it with you! He told Jesus he would give Him EVERYTHING in this world, all the riches, dominion of people, ANYTHING! If you would just bow to be JUST ONCE, JUST THIS TIME, it all will be yours! Jesus responded GET THE BEHIND ME SATAN, I AM TO BOW AND SERVE ONLY GOD MY FATHER!! You see, all it takes is for us to give that response, and the devil WILL FLEE!....but if we indulge in the desires of the flesh, if we choose to do whatever it is JUST ONCE it will cause us to lose everything! Can you imagine if Jesus took the devil up on his offer, where would we be then, how would we have access to God saving grace and power. It in the bible "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father (God) except through me (Jesus)" John 14:6. When I read that, I thought about all the other times I listened to that lie, and what it cost me! I then made the decision verbally, so that the devil can hear, I WILL NOT COMPROMISE EVER AGAIN! Indulging in something I know is sin JUST ONCE is not worth sacrificing all the work God has done on the inside of me, it is not worth risking the relationship I have with God, it is not worth losing favor over, it is not worth disappointing my kids over, it is not worth disappointing God, it is not worth losing the blessing God is about to bestow on my life and the people close to me, it is not worth loosing out on the souls that I could lead to God with the messages He gives me to write! IT'S JUST NOT WORTH IT! JUST ONCE can get you pregnant! JUST ONCE can lead to jail time! JUST ONCE can get your kids taken away from you! JUST ONCE can cause you to lose everything you have! JUST ONCE can make you lose everything you have worked for! JUST ONCE can lead to losing YOUR LIFE!! "SUBMIT YOURSELVES, THEN, TO GOD. RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU!" JAMES 4:7 The more you resist, the more you call on the name of Jesus when you recognize temptation, THE EASIER IT GETS! The better you will feel! You will feel more and more confident in your walk with the Lord! I PROMISE YOU! I live this EVERYDAY! There is not a day that goes by where the devil doesn't try to tempt me! He knows what time of day, and he knows exactly what to tempt me with!! It has come to the point where I IMMEDIATELY SAY UH UH DEVIL, NOT TODAY BUDDY! I call on the name of Jesus, ask Him to take the feeling and thought out of my head and heart! You know that song lyric that says "NAH NAH NAAAAH NAH, HEY HEY HEY, GOOD BYE!!" I SING THAT TO THE DEVIL EVERYDAY WHEN GOD GIVES ME THE VICTORY OVER WHATEVER HE IS TRYING TO TEMPT ME WITH! Sing this to the devil today "NAH NAH NAAAH NAH!!! NAH NAH NAAAH NAH!! HEY HEY HEY!!! GOODBYE DEVIL!! Don't give in to that JUST ONCE lie, it will set you back so, and do major damage spiritually! Resist the devil and he WILL FLEE! God bless you, I love you to life! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE!!

The devil tempting Jesus can be found in Matthew chapter 4:8-11

RETURNING HOME TO GOD

Sooo......I am soooo loving the lesson I've learned this morning, LIKE EVERY MORNING, reading the bible! This morning, the story of the prodigal son hit me! The son who left the father, squandered all of his money, sinned and indulged in every desire of the flesh, and when he was broke, starving, and homeless, decided to run back to his father! Have you ever been like that with God? WELL, I HAVE SEVERAL TIMES! When the son returned, his father ran to him, gave him a fine robe, and rings, and killed the fattest animal, and had a feast and party! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT! After all the damage the son did, after all the sin, after spending all of his money, after all the terrible things he has done, his father still gave him a seat at the table! I realized while I was reading, that is what God has done for me, and what he has done for you, and wants to do for all of us! We just have to make the decision to come back! The love is still there, the blessings are still there, the provisions are there, the grace his there, whatever we need is there at the table, we just have to make the decision to return home to God! The father didn't think at all about what the son has done, what he said, what he stole, who he slept with, what he smoked or drank. The son came home to forgiveness, love, understanding, and celebration! That is what is waiting for us when we decide to follow God. When we RETURN to His table, when we accept His love, and follow the path He has laid out for us! Now, with that being said, there might be people in your life who think that you don't deserve these things, like the brother in this story! He was very angry at his father for giving his SINFUL brother this feast and fine things! He told the father, "I have been here with you, slaving for you, always doing the right thing, and you have never even given me A PIECE of what you are giving him!!" I love what the father said back, because it exemplifies the love of GOD! He said "We are celebrating your brother like this because he CAME BACK!!!" You see, the most important thing is that he RETURNED when he knew he was empty, and couldn't do ANYTHING on his own!!! SOUND FAMILIAR! It does to me, it wasn't until I realized that I cannot do life AT ALL without my Savior, it was at that point when I CAME BACK! That is what God wants us to do, he CELEBRATES us when we do! Don't be like the brother, celebrate those who have messed up but then CAME BACK! That is another soul not damned for hell, that is another soldier for the kingdom of God! That is another soul not bound by the yoke of sin and death! Celebrate them and God will do MORE than celebrate you! God is eternal love, forgiveness, kindness, and security! Come back and He will give you a seat at His table, without throwing your past in your face, without making you feel ashamed and guilty over past sins, NO STRINGS ATTACHED!! God bless you and I love you to LIFE!! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE!!!! Return to Him, dust off the seat that you have left, and sit at His table! OH......AND READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ YOUR BIBLE!!! READ THE WORD OF GOD!!!!! YOU WILL EVENTUALLY LEAVE THAT SEAT IF YOU DON'T!!! PLEASE BELIEVE ME, READ YOUR BIBLE! LOVE YOU!

The story of the prodigal son can be found in Luke 15:11-32

"THE BLESSINGS OF THE LORD MAKETH RICH  AND ADDETH NO SORROW!" (God will restore you, love you and bless you, without pain, making you feel guilty or shame, only love and kindness!) Proverbs 10:22

SEEING LIFE THROUGH GODS LENS

Sooo.....Today's post won't be very long, but it is VERY important! I was thanking God just a few minutes ago for clarity, I was thanking Him for helping me to see things through His lens, and not my own! When the devil threw his attacks at me these past couple of days, they have hit to the very core of me! I had fleeting thoughts of being taken away from my children, little paranoid thoughts about my family trying to turn them against me, paranoid thoughts about my family taking them away then ripping me out of the home, ALL KINDS OF MADNESS! You want to know how I am able to sit here now, with my sanity......THE RENEWING OF THE MIND! I have been consistent in praying and reading the word of God. Not just reading, because I know that is what I'm supposed to do as a Christian, but actually APPLYING IT, AND BEING OBEDIENT! I am not saying all of this to toot my own horn or to BIG UP myself, this is a testimony! I am actually feeling, and seeing the results of applying the word, and being obedient! I am feeling the results of staying consistent, of allowing God to do a COMPLETE WORK inside of me! When the enemy came up against me through others, I was able to stop, pray, and listen to what God told me! It wasn't His voice speaking through the ceiling, but His word in my heart! The word of God is His voice, I was able to see the situation for what it was, an ATTACK! An attack on my mind and my emotions! I don't even want to think what would of happened if I reacted impulsively off of my emotions and the crazy thoughts going through my mind! Instead, I consulted my Savior, I realized that God is providing for my children at a time where I am unable! He is making sure they have everything from a roof over their heads, food in their stomach, tv to watch, video games to play! I am being provided for as well! You see, the devil wanted me to think that my family has some kind of plot against me, the evil devil tried to isolate me AGAIN! The devil tried to make me believe that I had no one but myself, and that I needed to take matters into my own hands! I am SOOOO happy that God has given me the strength to survive! I am OVERWHELMED at the fact that He gave me the clarity to see what was REALLY happening! I am so happy that He has taken out my heart of stone and replaced it with a heart of flesh!! GOD IS SO GOOD!! I LOVE AND THANK YOU GOD FOR EVERYTHING!! I CAN'T EVEN PUT INTO WORDS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU LORD!!! Everyone.....please......whoever is reading, JESUS IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIGHT! TRY HIM, CAST ALL YOU CARES ON HIM!! GOD WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!! EVEN WHEN THINGS SEEM TO BE AT IT'S DARKEST, HE IS THE LIGHT! AND READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ YOUR WORD! AND LET IT RENEW YOUR MIND!!! I love you all to LIFE!! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE!!!

"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what Gods will is-His good, pleasing and perfect will!"

ENDURANCE AND PERSEVERANCE

Sooo.....This morning the topic of encouragement from the Lord (that comes from reading the bible) was endurance, and perseverance! I never thought I would make it as far as I have! I never have in the past. That's because I lacked endurance! Every test and trial we pass, boosts up our endurance, we gain more and more strength, trial by trial! If we shrink during these tough times, if we fold and give in to the flesh, or our will, or the will of the world, instead of doing the will of God, instead of responding in the spirit, the we loose steam! This is something that I have repeatedly done, but not this time around! When I go through an emotional, or mental battle (that's the devils favorite form of attack on me) I respond with the word of God. I make it a point to seek God, to cry out to Him. I beg God to take those thoughts out of my head, I beg Him to heal my hurt feelings, to intercede in whatever it is that I am facing. If we don't invite Him in, we won't get results! The ask, and it shall be given to you! God won't just JUMP IN! We have to be intentional in asking Him, let God know that you cannot get through whatever it is by yourself! Shrinking back to our way, taking things into our own hands, "handling it" ourselves sets us back SOO FAR spiritually! Then we wonder why we can't handle the next issue that arises! That was me for so long, "handling" things myself, and then when MY actions blew the situation up, running to God, begging Him to clean up the mess! That is not walking in obedience, God said to cast ALL your cares on Him, not some, not a piece, ALL! God said vengeance is HIS, not OURS! When we are being tried, we have to respond in the spirit, because after all the bible says "We wrestle not against FLESH AND BLOOD, but against POWERS, against the RULER OF DARKNESS of this world, against SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS in high places!" Ephesians 6:12 Loosely put, we are not fighting anything that is physical, anything that we can see with our eyes, we are fighting the devil and his lies, his deception, his destruction, his manipulations, against his terror! That is something that us mere mortals CANNOT DO ALONE! Find me one person who has gone up against the devil ALONE and won!!! NEVER! So we have to reach out to God in those moments, during those times, and the more you do, the easier it gets to fight. That is what I realize this time around, now when I have thoughts or feelings, I IMMEDIATELY SAY GOD TAKE IT AWAY, GOD PROTECT MY HEART, GOD INTERCEDE IN THIS SITUATION!...because I cannot and will not do it without Him anymore!! I have waved my white flag, I have thrown in the towel and TOTALLY SURRENDERED to Gods will and His way! That is the only way I have made it this far!! Tap into the Savior today, the choice is yours, make the right one! God is the only way you can get through the darkest times in your life, get through the toughest situations, the roughest trials! Remember, if your not taking any steps forward, you are surely slipping backwards! There is only one way or another, and you DEFINITELY not both ways! I'VE TRIED THAT!.......NO BUENO! LOL! For real though, repent of your sins, give it ALL TO GOD, READ THE WORD OF GOD YOU CAN'T GET BY WITHOUT THAT PART, and live the free and happy life God has planned out for you! You know I love ya'll to LIFE! GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE! 

"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God you will receive what he has promised."
Hebrews 10:35-36

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with PERSEVERANCE the race marked out for us, FIXING OUR EYES ON JESUS, the pioneer and the perfecter of our faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God"
Hebrews 12:1-2

THE REINFORCING OF GODS WORD

Sooo....Today, during my morning time with God, He did some reinforcing with me. When your in school, learning, the teacher my REPEATEDLY say things, or have you do different activities, but on the same subject! To all my parents reading, you know how you have to keep giving your children THE SAME COMMANDS, you have to keep telling them the same thing OVER AND OVER, well that is how we learn the things we need to know in the world. It works the same way concerning your spirit man, and what God teaches you! I have learned over this past month, that God will reinforce His lessons. I have read many different devotional readings, that have had the verse of scripture from one to another! the bible is our textbook for this life ! The word of God is our instruction manual, it is our playbook, it is our script, it is our reference, it is the very source of the wisdom and knowledge that God has to give us! That is why it is SOOOO IMPORTANT TO READ YOUR WORD EVER DAY, NOT JUST ONE DAY A WEEK, NOT JUST SOMETIMES, EVERY DAY EVERY DAY!!! How else are we going to learn what God is trying to teach us! If we went out on the football field without first learning the playbook, THE TEAM WILL SURELY LOSE! If we were an actor, and we jumped into the scene without first reading and learning the script, WE WOULD LOOK STUPID, AND WOULD BE KICKED OUT, WE WOULDN'T BE PREPARED FOR PRODUCTION! How many times have we bought something big, and chose to skip the instructions, and failed 2,3,4 times to build it, always forgetting a screw, or something major! How would we get a drivers license without first studying the drivers manual! We should treat our spirit led walk the same way! We cannot say the right things without our bible script, we cannot build up our faith with our instruction manual, we cannot wage spiritual war on  the devil without our battle plans! We cannot handle or navigate life on this planet without Gods instructions! ALL OF THIS COMES FROM IN THE BIBLE! I know deep in my heart that I need this word, these instructions every day of my life! It's my survivors manual! I can never get the point where I think I can just SKIP a morning, or a couple of days! I can't ever think that I have arrived to perfection, or some kind of master level of being a Christian, only God is perfect! God is the only one on that MASTER LEVEL! We are just striving, fighting, pushing forward! I have to remember that if I'm not pushing forward, than I'm slipping backward! God is the way, the truth, and the light, I am just a humble servant, and vessel for Him to use to help other in this fight! I pray and hope that all who are reading make the decision to take time and read your word, spend time with God, it will not be in vain, you will not come up void, but FILLED! Just like we need food for our mortal bodies to function, our spirit needs the word of God! Don't let your spirit get HANGRY! Don't let it get malnourished, don't let it die of starvation! I love you all to life, GOD LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE!!!!

"Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended (to have arrived at perfection): but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before. (Forgetting the past, moving on, keeping our eyes on the future that God has for us!) I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."(Continue to move forward, keep pushing, keep reading your word, stay on the path God has laid out for you!) Philippians 3:13-14

"Many are the plans in a persons heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that will prevail" Proverbs 19:21
