For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7

1.  Principle of Existence - We must believe that there is a supreme being, a God that created the universe and reigns Supreme. 2. The Principle of Just Providence - you must believe that He rewards those who diligently seek Him.  3. The Principle of the Invisible - you must be prepared to believe in things beyond the experience of your senses, in things that have never happened before i...

Finding God in your pain can be a struggle, and you may feel like giving up or just say what's the use. But trusting God to the end is just what we need to do. He promised never to leave or forsake you and to be with you to the end. This Word must never leave your heart, it will lead you to the solution for your pain. No problem can exist without a solution, no sickness without a cure.  Findi...

Our times and seasons are all in the hands of God. We have many why's, some things just does not make sense to us. But God has an answer for all complexities that are presented to us in this life. Talk to God, He will talk back to you.

Everyone has purpose, find yours and live it. A successful life is one where your purpose is completed. Refuse to leave this earth without finding and completing your purpose.

You are born with a purpose, seek God to reveal your purpose to you so your life may be purpose driven.

Luke 4:18-19 (AMPC) 18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon Me, because He has anointed Me [the Anointed One, the Messiah] to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed [who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity], 19 To proclaim the acce...

Psalm 37:8 Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.

Hebrews 11:5-6 (KJV) 5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  Pleasing God should be the...

Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes. Romans 12:2 

Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! -Deuteronomy 30:19. We must make a daily choice as to what thoughts dominate our minds, God said to choose life, thoughts that produce life and not death. Life and death is...

5  Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7  Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. 8  It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones Proverbs 3:5-8

Psalms 100:5 (KJV) 5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.  God is inherently good, His goodness is part of His character, He can only be good and do good. Trust him to be the good and do the good in your life.. 

The Bible clearly teaches that Christians are not to worry. In Philippians 4:6, we are commanded, "Do not be anxious [do not worry] about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." In this Scripture, we learn that we should bring all of our needs and concerns to God in prayer rather than worry about them. Jesus encourages us to avoid worr...

We should be THANFUL, COMMITTED, and PRAYERFUL. God has been so good to us that these character traits should be the hallmark of our lives. Thankfulness flows out of gratefulness when we have recognized God's mercy and love for us.  Not committing ourselves to the things of God is denying the faith, which makes us unfit for the Kingdom of Heaven.  Prayer is our daily bread and we all sho...

Deuteronomy 30:19-20 (KJV) 19 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:  20 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: that thou mayest...

WHERE THERE IS FEAR, THERE IS WEAKNESS AND INABLILITY TO PERFORM. Fear impedes your ability to perform. Fear was never given to us by our creator, but developed in us thru fearful thinking.  Remove fear with the truth of the Word of God, Philippians 4:13 (AMP) 13 I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inn...

Psalms 92:1-2 (KJV) 1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: 2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, Let this be the attitude of your character, always be thankful no matter what. God is to be thanked just because He is good.  

7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8  Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. James 4:7-8 This is the key to breaking strongholds in our minds. Apply truth of God's word to our lives and be empowered to pull down and eradicate strongholds.  You are more...

Its important to identify and break spiritual strongholds in our lives, so the adversary does not have a foothold. Fill our hearts and minds with the Word of God and refuse anything that is contrary to it. God's Word is truth and our application of truth is paramount to victorious living.

And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation. Psalms 35:9. Let the Joy of the Lord be your strength each and every day, in spite of what you face in the earthly journey.  Rejoice because he is your salvation. In the end we always come out on top, so rejoice because we win.

Fear of tomorrow can be as crippling as slavery to the past.  Child of God, do not fear what lies ahead. He holds the future, and He holds you in His hand. God has gone before you and secured your tomorrow on your behalf. Notice God does not say, "Everywhere your foot shall trod I will give you," but rather, "I have given unto you." He's already done it.  With God, there's no yesterday,...

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:" Hosea 4:6 Lack of knowledge of the things of God can cause our demise. The lack of knowledge of spiritual things has caused us to lose the benefits of kingdom principles. We must be on a quest for Spiritual Knowledge in order to properly orchestrate our earthly lives and transition into our eternal existence.  Refuse to die in ignorance, seek G...

14 The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give us the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his own people. He did this so we would praise and glorify him. Ephesians 1:14

Matthew 13:19 (KJV)  19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart.  Refuse to allow satan to steal what God has sown in your heart, He sowed what needs to be established in your life. Believe it, speak it, and expect it. It will become your reality.
