Challenge of the Week

 Hello :) Happy Tuesday :) :) Apparently its my Joy is starting to show on my face that people say.."I was going to tell you, you look happy" Praise God eh!!! This week and a bit of last week I was reading/Listening to Psalm 103, What I recognized was that despite how great God has been in our lives our flesh would force us to think of our situation and  instead of giving praise we dwell on our current state. Challenge of the week: this week I challenge you to keep reminding your soul to worship God! to continue reminding your soul of all the good He has done. I challenge you to let your spirit rule over your flesh!! 1 Praise the  Lord ,  my soul;      all my inmost being, praise his holy name. 2  2 Praise the  Lord ,  my soul,      and forget not  all his benefits— 3  3 who forgives all your sins      and heals  all your diseases, 4  4 who redeems your life  from the pit      and crowns you with love and compassion, 5  5 who satisfies  your desires wi

Prayer of the Week!

Hello :) Happy Monday :) Never thought I would be one of those people that is excited about everyday, especially Monday :) But the Joy of the Lord Changes everything!!! So my everyday is a joyful and happy day :D This time of year is so busy and stressful especially for students. I am supposed to be (according to the norms of school lol ) stressed to the core, but am not! Praise God am not! Prayer of the Week: This week pray that you seek God's face so much and you recognize all the blessings in your life that the current storm or trail feels like a joke. Pray that everyday you wake up you will be filled with the joy of the Lord! Also that you just remember He has got you!!! He will never fail you!! "Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid or terrified  because of them, for the  Lord  your God goes with you;  he will never leave you  nor forsake  you.”  Deuteronomy  31:6 Stay Blessed<3

Drowning in Vs. Pouring out

People have different views when it comes to alcohol. For some, it’s almost like a ‘pain-killer’ for others it’s just something they consume when in a social setting. Now, my focus today is on the people who use alcohol as a pain-killer. The basic numbing impact of alcohol is what people use as means of killing pain. But, when you are sober again after a night of ‘no-pain’ guess what comes? The pain that you avoided yesterday plus a hangover!!!  Drinking to the point that we forget our current state is not killing pain but drowning in a sea of alcohol! However, there is another way out!! I don’t know how many of you know this but I am a crier. I cry to let out stress or cry to my father in heaven when things don’t seem to be working out! In my walk with God these past couple of years God has been teaching me the worth of tears. “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” Psalm 56:8 . Knowin

Everyone needs a little.....:) "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."  1 Corinthians 13:13 Stay Blessed<3

Sermon by Creflo Dollar: Change your way of thinking

Hey guys :) sorry for the late post! So today we have 3 parts for the sermon both of which are on the blog but for the first one I put down a link. It is an amazing message so let it bless you! btw each part is about 10 minutes long so its about the same length as the weekly sermons. "So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. "Galatians 5:16 Part 1 http://youtu.be/iTsKUK25f9k Part 2 Part 3   Walking in the spirit is a way of thinking that lines up with God's word whereas; walking in the flesh is a way of thinking that opposes word of God When you walk in the spirit :-  You get results Blessings will fill your life You receive Life     When you walk in the flesh :- No profit, it's not just working The curse, a curse with no cause comes Death: separation from God! Your prayers won't work! Stay Blessed<3

Challenge of the Week!

Hello :) How is everyone doing? I am as Joyful as ever Praise God!!! He has been so good to me!!! Before I used to think that when I made major decisions in my life, I was the only  person I had to consult. However, I made sure I Prayed about it, but what I did then was basically telling God I made my decision hope you agree! Praise God! I now see that is a very wrong approach! As Christians we should be looking to Our Father in Heaven for Guidance and His will to be known to us. Challenge of the week: I challenge you to wait on the Lord more this week. Recognize that His good and perfect will is far better than what we think is good for us. This week I challenge you to prayerfully consider each and every step you take, submit all of your will to Him! And let His will govern your lives :) "For I know the plans  I have for you,” declares the  Lord , “plans to prosper  you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11 Stay Blessed<3

Prayer of the Week!

Hello everyone :) Sorry am a little late in the day for the post, but prayer is not limited to anytime of day right so its all good :) Praise God today, I saw His works, I saw Him making a way where there was not! Just the same way He parted the Red sea for the Israelites to pass, He parted my clogged and jammed paths for me to pass and Praise God for that! That is my testimony of the day!! Prayer of the Week: Why have just one testimony that we keep repeating when sharing Christ, why not have testimonies everyday??? That would then require new dimensions of faith everyday!! Let our prayer focus be to experience God everyday so as to have testimonies everyday!! That would generate stronger faith! Also, we will know we are not standing still in our faith, instead we will be walking in faith!! Amen for walking in faith!!! "but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be f

What next?

I remember the feeling I felt when I graduated from high school. I felt like I accomplished something I have been working on my whole life prior to that event. Now, am standing at a similar cross road where I am expected to make some of the most important decisions that will defiantly affect my future! No pressure eh! I know that once am sure of what I am going to do the next step would be walking forward with faith.  For I know if I am in the perfect will of He who created me all will be well. Peter is one of the disciples of Jesus Christ. He has experienced the Lord’s miracles in his own life. The night the disciples saw Jesus walking on water most of them thought it was a ghost and they were terrified. Then Jesus said, “ Take courage!  It is I. Don’t be afraid.” Matthew 14: 27 ; when you continue to read on what Peter says it’s actually amazing.   “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.   “Come,”   Jesus said . Matthew 14:28-29 Do you s

Video of the Week:Love Comes Down

"I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world." John 6:51 Love came down in Form of Flesh, Jesus Christ! Stay Blessed<3

Challenge of the Week!

Good afternoon :) God is as amazing as ever eh :) :) If you are anything like me, simple things that you hold dear to your heart mean much more than anything you can buy! These gifts for me rank from a warm smile all the way to doing something nice for me when i needed it the most :) Challenge of the week: First recognize those things that are simple but heartwarming to you. Once you do, make an effort to bless others with the same blessing you have received. You never know how much that person needed to be encouraged or hugged or prayed for at that moment until you do it and see the transformation in their mood! So I challenge you to let your lights shine! "  In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16 Stay Blessed <3

Prayer of the Week!

Good morning :) How were your weekends? Praise God mine was more productive than last weekend :) Joy is often confused with happiness,though they compliment each other one is different from the other. Happiness is dependent on the state we are in; where as Joy comes from the Lord, and since He is always the same, consistent in His love, Joy is independent of our emotional state. Then being Joyful will lead to rejoicing! "Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, gladden yourselves in Him]; again I say, Rejoice!" Philippians 4:4 Prayer of the week: Let us pray that we are joyful in the Lord always! Let us recognize that happiness is an emotional high that goes and comes but the Joy of the Lord is Here to stay! Let us pray that we get to see God and always be filled with His Joy no matter the situation we face. Stay Blessed<3

Compassion!

These past couple of days I have been filled with compassion towards people who have lost loved ones.  “ Compassion   is the   virtue   of empathy for the   suffering   of others. It is regarded as a fundamental part of human   love , and a cornerstone of greater social interconnection and   humanism   —foundational to the highest   principles   in philosophy, society, and   personhood .” ~ Wikipedia God is Love! The love He has towards us He has displayed in so many ways. God first showed His compassion towards the human race by sending His only son to die for us; “For God so loved   the world that he gave   his one and only Son,   that whoever believes   in him shall not perish but have eternal life” John 3:16 . God in flesh, Jesus Christ, continued to show compassion towards us.   He especially had compassion towards people who had lost their loved ones. In many occasions, as recorded in the Holy Bible, Jesus had wept out of compassion. “ 33  When Jesus saw her weeping, and t

Video of the Week: Mighty to Save

He is Mighty to Save!! The  Lord  your God is with you,    the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight  in you    in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.” Zephaniah 3:17 Stay Blessed<3

Challenge of the Week!

Good morning :) God is great :) He is great no matter how your day is going so you have a reason to rejoice :) His great love and His unending grace is enough source of Joy that will last you a life time! Have you ever been so touched with someone's crisis, like your heart feels that its about to explode due to the sympathy you are feeling towards that person. What do you do in that situation? Challenge of the week: This week I challenge you to believe enough for a person who is in pain, this week I challenge you to pray every single time you come across a person with a crisis and believe that God will deliver them. I challenge you to trust in God for the sake of others, to trust that He is a God who is able, to trust then to pray for these individuals.   They replied, “Believe  in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved —you and your household.” Acts 16:31 Stay Blessed<3

Prayer of the Week

Good morning :) Its Monday morning :) I have always thought praying for one another is very necessary. It is encouraging! Do you have friends and family members you want to see saved? What have you done about it? Prayer of the Week: This week let us come in front of our Loving Father in heaven to pray for our loved ones. People who are going through trials and though times  let us remember them in our conversations with God! We have been given power, power that can be utilized by communicating with the King of kings! So lets get down on our knees and pray for others, for those who still don't have Christ in their lives, for those in trails and for those hurt or discouraged by things of the world. "16  I pray that out of his glorious riches  he may strengthen you with power  through his Spirit in your inner being,   17  so that Christ may dwell in your hearts  through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted  and established in love,   18  may have power, together with a

Weapons of War

If you know anything about me, you know that I love kids sooo much. Because of my love for kids you will spot me with a kid on my lap at church or any gathering. Spending so much time with kids has given me a sneak peek into their train of thought and how they process things. As cute as they are there are times where I can’t focus on how cute they are because of how loud their cry is. Have you had an experience with a baby that just couldn't stop crying? I have, my youngest brother was not even a year old and I was taking care of him for the night. My baby brother cried until I cried with him because there wasn't anything else I could do. When a kid starts crying if you scream at him/her, he/she will even cry harder, worse if you try to make them stop by beating them. I thought of war and weapons of war. War according to this world is basically beating a kid to make it stop crying. But for us Christians, war and its weapons are completely different. Our weapon of war is
