Her Red Boots

When you walk out day to day life, do people see the Holy Spirit? Don't stop walking it out based on what others think. Let them flock towards you because you have what they need. Remember you are fully supported by God for each and every moment.

Have you ever tried to look at life through the lense of Christ? In Samuel we see Saul's path to kingdom and God’s preparation for all Israel. God crafts a way just for you. Remember that in your day to day God is working. Throw off your insecurities and walk in freedom and boldness on the path you are anointed for!

How quickly we give up on things in our current culture and yet the Word says to add to your faith, steadfastness. Stack your days of faith and become fervent like Job or Abraham so that your faith will grow. I encourage you to declare over yourself what God is doing and what He said He will do. Let's memorize Scripture to back up our beliefs and watch for what God brings.

Have you forgotten that God is with you? In Mary’s journey she had to remember God set her on this path. Elizabeth was there in the middle to confirm His good work in Mary. Don't forget to check in with God. The impossible awaits you on the path our good Father has set before you. Push past the busyness and let the Holy Spirit function in you this year and in your daily life.

Lets jump in to Mary's story. We need to remember this was before there was a Christmas, no anticipation of the season or traditions. She was just living life like a normal person and then suddenly visited by an angel who prophesied over her. But it was only her, seemingly alone. Do you ever feel alone? I encourage you to cry out to God and hand Him your anxieties. Awaken yourself to His presence...

Have you ever thought about what it was like before there was a Christmas season? For Hanna that came when Jesus showed up in the temple at just 8 days old. She had anticipated a coming Messiah and He was here. God wants to give you good gifts, the ones He created you for. I encourage you to cry out to God. Seek His help, find grace, and believe in the impossible.

God wants you to be effective with your faith in your life. This means you have to establish your faith in Him. Take hold of His Kingdom and ask what He is doing in your life. Then keep walking out your faith as you add to it self control. So before the year is out ,what will you believe God for? I challenge you to ask for something impossible.

Episode 105 summary: This season can bring stress and, through that, lack of trust in God. Jesus experienced weariness and when He did He saught water from the well. God wants to meet our spiritual needs just as Jesus met the Samaritan women at the well. I challenge you to give in to God's peace and let Him change your perspective. PS Take time to look back at what God has done in your life. How h...

Say yes to the Lord with me today as I talk through my mission trip to Honduras. Each of us are unique and has a story to reach specific people. Jesus sent us out with a great commission, telling us to trust in His provision. Drop the excuses, because He is enough, and say Yes to God.

God’s presence brings abundance and hope by covering you in grace. Did you know that you hold the presence that brings grace? You are even called to pull people from the fire with that influence, banishing doubt and providing support against sin. I challenge you to ask a friend to take hold of the fact that Jesus is sufficient with you and live a holy week and seek first the kingdom.

In the book of Daniel, four young boys stood in faith and knowledge from the Lord, because of that they were found essential by the king. Proverbs says, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. As we seek to add to our faith I challenge you to let faith possess your knowledge. Write down each week what you are going after and look for the change God forms in your life.

Do you seek out answers from God when things are not going your way? How about when things are going really well? We should be trying to understand God’s heart in all the things. Break out of the conformity of this world and take time to seek the Lord this week. I encourage you to pursue His presence because whatever it costs you, it is worth it.

Keep bein...

Have you been in the midst of a "storm" praying for God's help and you don't see any change? Our emotions can be louder then our faith and bring fear into our minds. Only hours after a miracle, Jesus' disciples feared the storm, they let physical danger outweigh the God of their fathers. He is with you, present and actively willing to help you because He loves you. I challenge you to memorize Scri...

How much of God's Word do you know? In Scripture it was spoken truth that made the difference, for Timothy it encouraged, for Jesus it rebuked satan, and for others it sent them into wild lands to bring people life. The time is now and we need to be ready for whatever comes up. I encourage you spend time reading the Bible everyday. Be blessed in everything you put your hands to this week. Enjoy th...

Have you ever been asked what your purpose is? Virtue is literally living out your purpose. From the very beginning God called us to be fruitful and that is impossible without the Holy Spirit. The fruit in our lives may come after many failures but like Christ we can grow in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man. I challenge you to ask the Holy Spirit for conviction about your virtue and bri...

What does it mean for you to be a witness? Is that active or passive? God brought up a nation to bear witness and it culminated in Christ as the ultimate witness of God's love. His example in Scripture is perfect and we should bear witness of the cross. Walk in obedience to build that relationship with God and claim joy and peace. Do wonders in His name.

In the middle of the storm the house on the rock or on the sand? Which stands firm in your storm? But, really, what does it cost me to get to that rock? The effort to be doers of the word not just hearers only takes perseverance. When you are in the storm you are going to need Christ to back you up. I encourage you to take hold of Scripture and encourage yourself and those around you. Let’s build...

Are you joyful? I don’t mean happiness. I mean responding with happiness to whatever situation is before you. Jesus is the perfect example of Joy. Being filled with the Spirit enables you to walk in it. Don’t let fear rob you because God is faithfull. I encourage you to be a conduit of joy when you encounter hard in your life. Choose joy.

What are you fruitful in? God's first command to mankind is to be fruitful. Do you to actively pursue it? Peter writes to remind and encourage us to pursue 7 things that add to our faith. He also tells us without them we will be ineffective and unfruitful. We have to choose to change and grow in these areas. I encourage you to seek our Savior's heart, add to your faith, show up and let God.

Join us in prayer today as we pray through the Lord’s prayer and let the Spirit lead us. As we pray for release of the kingdom in hearts, community, and family, believe God is doing great things. We praise the Lord for all His wonderous gifts. Stir up your faith, trust Him to be your defender, and contend with me in fervent prayer this month.

I hope my encouragement has brought good investment into your life. Jesus saught out the lost and we need to do the same. When Peter and John had "nothing" to give they tapped into the kingdom through prayer. Turn to prayer, as they did, and partner with your friend to stay active. Pray for boldness, become a giant of prayer. Let's see God’s hand move in the world like never before.

Do you expect change when you pray? Do you listen to God when you pray? We should expect change and be prepared to change ourselves. Peter listened and obeyed during prayer and in doing so his expectations were met and surpassed by God’s love for people. When we are willing to leave our plans at the feet of Jesus and join others in sharing God’s heart we change the destiny of the world. I challeng...

I want your faith system to be activated today and put in the drivers seat of your daily thoughts. In this episode I challenge you to boldy declare five world-changing prayers. I encourage you to seek Gods purpose, ask Him where He is moving, and trust your powerful prayers to return fruitful.

Have you ever been mis-led in something and believed it good? Jesus warns us that this would happen and the enemy is crafty. Be diligent on what influences you, then be bold and make God known to people. I encourage you to dig into Scriptures and obey when the Holy Spirit leads you, no matter how you might feel or think about the situation. His plans are great!
