"Emmanuel” speaks not only to who Jesus is, but what He’s come to do. God didn’t send a message or a representative—He came Himself. This isn’t a comforting phrase for hard times; it’s a reality that redefines who we are and how we live today.
You're not a thermometer reacting to your environment. You're a thermostat setting the tone! Lift someone, encourage someone, speak life into someone's weary soul.
Show up even when you don't feel like it. Consistency beats excitement.
Be like the builder who lays one brick at a time, knowing
that though today may look unimpressive, the cathedral will rise if he just doesn't stop!
Every time you partake of the Communion, you are proclaiming Jesus’ death at the cross that reversed the curse brought about in the garden of Eden and the very power of His redemptive work for our bodies especially healing and health!
Real change in our lives doesn’t come from making massive changes all at once. It comes from focusing on one thing and staying with it consistently until it becomes part of who we are. A mistake is trying to change too much all at once.
We all reach a point where we know what we need to do. It's time to stop overthinking and get out of our own way! Disciplined action is our bridge between who we are and who we want to be.
James 4:7 exhorts in believers to resist, oppose, or withstand the devil. We're done not tolerating his activity in our lives! Resisting the devil must be accompanied by submitting to God. A disobedient or unsubmissive believer will not see victory.
Make your well-being a priority, take care of yourself and don't feel guilty about it.
After all, you can't effectively pour into those who look to you when you're depleted!
Judas criticized the woman with the alabaster box, and Jesus rebuked him for it! Criticism of those making a positive impact often comes from those who don't. People who do very little should avoid criticizing those who are actively working to make a difference.
We cannot give your best when we are barely holding it together.
We try to give to others when we are empty. That’s not God’s system. The Lord told Abram, “I will bless you and you shalt be a blessing” (Genesis 12:2). Before Abram could be a blessing, he had to be blessed.
Become the person who makes the right decision regardless of the circumstances,
regardless of the hardships, regardless of the pain, regardless of the frustration if you become that person you become UNSTOPPABLE!
David was just a teenager but willing to take risks that others wouldn't. This boldness set him apart. When you face your own "Goliath" and stand up for what others avoid, you'll separate yourself too and begin to experience the uncommon!
The devil wants to make your life miserable, unhappy, uneventful! a life that no one will even notice you’re gone once it’s over. But Jesus wants to give you a life that is unrivaled, unequaled, matchless, incomparable, richly loaded, and overflowing with good to the ultimate!
When our thinking doesn't align with God’s Word, we limit Him.
Our words limit Him. Death and life are in the power of OUR tongue.
Our actions limit Him. When our actions are contrary to God’s Word, He cannot work in us.
Yes, we are limited in and of ourselves, but whatever we lack, God is more than enough. With Him, we are smarter and stronger. He’s our ability. We need to allow God to work in and through us.
God's love for us is rooted in Himself, not in our efforts of trying to do everything right.. Because He is unchanging, His love remains constant. Understanding this can revolutionize how we live, pray, and relate to the Heavenly Father!
There is no class system in the kingdom of God. There are no spiritual elites with the rest of us peeking through the window hoping for scraps. No in Christ we are all favored, we all share in the same redemption, inheritance, power, grace, authority! Yes, the same!!!😲
John 17:23 means the Father loves us!! Not in a watered down way, not in a secondhand way, not as an afterthought. The very same love that burned for His Son, burns for us!! Holy Spirit, help us comprehend this🙏🏾
