Order Your Steps

If we were to look back over the last 12 months, what would we see? Now, if we could look ahead 12 months and what would we see? Are we looking at all the pieces of the puzzle, are we connecting the dots? Are we seeing the Order of our steps? Or have you found that we are in the wilderness?   Although, the Lord may lead us into the wilderness and provide for us while we are there, He doesn't...

This episode is short and sweet...For some reason, the Holy Spirit wants me to stay on this topic of the “Clay in the Potter’s Hands” a little while longer.  So I must ask you once again, where are you in God’s process? Are you still a ball of clay or have you decided to allow the Lord to continue to mold and shape you into what you were created to be?  Ultimately, it doesn't matter wher...

Last week, I suggested that we all take a closer look at our own respective journey through life.  As the Lord molds our wet clay on the Potter’s wheel, the process may begin smooth and gentle, but at some point, it may get a little Hot …  He must make sure that the clay solidifies and begins to harden, so He must apply some heat.  We must remember that as our wet clay begins to har...

I believe that at times, the Lord may become somewhat frustrated with us and because when He whispers, we don’t really listen, so He has had to Shout! There’s a noise in your spirit that is so very loud that you can’t ignore it.  I believe that this may apply to some of you, and you know who you are…  There’s a major shift happening in our lives and the Lord has had to result to shouting...

Imagine with me, for a moment, that someone very close to you; spouse, sister, best friend, someone who knows you, almost better than you know yourself, told you that they were taking you on a trip, but they are not going to tell you where you are going.  They are just going to give you a few details, so that you can prepare for the trip.   Isn’t the Lord the same way and He knows us bet...

Last week, we talked about living in the overflow, meaning to be saturated with God's presence to the point we begin to overflow His Glory . Since we cannot contain His Glory, the overflow becomes the catalyst to our calling.  Logically, this sounds reasonable, however, spiritually, we will be stretched beyond our own ability.  We cannot afford to be so preoccupied with just living life...

Over the past several weeks, I had begun to see and hear the word “overflow” in a lot of different places, for example, in sermons, bible plans, even on social media.  So, let’s look at what it means to “live in the overflow” ... As always, I pray that you enjoy this week’s episode, and something is said to inspire and encourage you. If so, we would love to hear your thoughts and comments, so...

Although we often ask God, Why? … do we really want to hear His answer? When we think about it honestly, God doesn’t actually owe us an explanation for what He does or how He does it. But this is by no means in a callous, uncaring sort of way, but I believe that the Lord knows that there is nothing that He can say that would satisfy us, an answer that we could actually embrace and understand. &nbs...

This is a very interesting question coming from someone who doesn’t even know how to swim. But, may I say that I will never look at the story of Peter walking on water ever the same. But hold on, you may think you know where I’m going, but stay with me, because you may not know where I’m going to end up... As always, I pray that you’ve enjoyed this week’s episode, and something has been said to in...

Today’s message is in my confession… so please allow me to explain. It's early Sunday morning and I'm lying-in bed and there's already a thought in my head that's on instant replay and I'm struggling to really know what my Holy Ghost download would be for this week.  I was so overwhelmed with the cares of life that it felt like I had run out of room in my mind for God, which means that I had to ta...

I believe that our biggest opportunity in life today is that we keep trying make it all make sense! I’m sorry that I have to be the one to tell you that it's not gonna make sense no matter how hard we try.  We are God's AMAZING creation, and we must stop trying to figure out the Creator!   Unfortunately, in the midst of the chaos of this world, we are being inundated with all kinds of th...

Last week, I left you with the question, “how would we define our success?” I’d like to suggest that this question may be a tad premature. I believe a better question would be, as you move forward, “Do you have a destination in mind” ?  We know that although the Holy Spirit will lead us and direct us towards our ultimate goal, He will not give us all the details.  May I suggest that once...

Today, I want to speak to all of you who may be trying to emulate the way others have done things in the past and have expected the same results.  For many of us are now discovering that to fulfill the assignment that the Lord has given us and achieve His desired results, “We must do it His Way”! So, its extremely important that we take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is sayi...

The topic for this week's podcast was all in my corn flakes… and what’s fascinating is that I didn’t realize how much so until Friday. The Holy Spirit continues to Blow my Mind on how He works, and in most cases, we don’t even realize that He’s working on our behalf, especially as we move into new unchartered territory. Earlier in the week, I was listening to a message entitled “This Doesn’t Fit”,...

I want you to start this week with a “Praise Break”!  Forget about your problems, forget about your cares; forget about the situation and circumstances at hand… and Remember God is Good, All the time and All the time God is Good!   As you go about your day this week, " Take a Praise Break" . Find a Psalm to read or simply a song to sing, even if you are like me and you can't carry a tune...

So, let’s take up where we left off last week, are you in a dry place as Elijah was, sitting by the Kerith Brook watching the water dry up? But remember, this is a place where the Lord has sent you, a place that felt really good, at first, but then the Lord may just send a disturbance in our lives to bring us out of hiding for those that are waiting on the other side.  It's been dry, long eno...

In this day and time, do we truly know how to listen? Listening takes time and effort. It may be just me, but do you occasionally simply zone out during a conversation, until it’s your turn to talk. The process of listening is especially difficult, when it’s silent. Wait! …that sounds like an oxymoron. I'd share with you a little story about the prophet, Elijah and I pray that this may give you a...

Let me begin by asking what is a “breakthrough”? I looked for a definition that would be befitting for what I’m about to share and I found this: A breakthrough is something that changes the course of your life going forward and ensures that things will never be the same for you again . Most of what a breakthrough requires is for us to have the courage and the bravery to stop settling for second be...

We are in a season of grief and loss, like we've never seen before.  For some of us, our lives may seem to be in total darkness right now.  For others, we may encounter those moments of darkness when our situation may seem hopeless.  But remember, into the smallest crevices of our lives, the Light of His Glory will shine through.  The Lord is the only one that can strengthen us...

I believe that the Lord is taking us somewhere and it’s time that we take a long, hard look at where we are and or where we should be going and if we are not going anyway, then we must ask the question, "What's really Standing your Way? I am reminded of a message I did a few years ago entitled “Connect the Dots”. Remember the Connect the Dots books. There were dots all over the page, but in the ce...

Our very next turn may revolutionize our entire life. So, I wonder, have we stop striving to be our very best selves? We may be oblivious to the fact that a life changing experience for someone just might come through us. Now is not the time to become complacent, because we don’t know what waiting for us just around the next bend... I pray that you’ve enjoyed this week’s episode, and something has...

A LOT have happened and continues to happen every day. OMG! Every day in this world today is an adventure and that’s putting it mildly. You may be feeling that you’re finally getting back some semblance of Order in your life, and you are taking it one day at a time. We all must admit that in any given moment we revert to survival mode just to get by. But I have something to tell you… God’s assignm...

During the month of April, I spent a lot of time talking about falling, but now we are up and running or walking really fast. Now, while many of us are tired of talking and or even hearing about the last two years and believe me I understand. The Lord has allowed us to live during a phenomenon that we had never experienced before. Many of us have fallen and so many others have fallen around us, so...

You’re up now and you have a lot of ground to cover. Shout with the voice of victory! … and Run, Don’t walk!  It’s time to run to Jesus even while the Devil is still talking. We must trust the Lord beyond our knowing exactly what lies ahead. So we must Run, and not just walk!  We must believe even though we haven’t seen the whole picture.  We must take a quiet moment to listen to wh...

Last week, I allowed you to just lay there for a little while longer, to get your head together, to gather your thoughts. You really needed the rest, you were so very tired, but you’ve laid there long enough, so it’s time to get up... If you’ve truly been listening to what the Holy Spirit has been saying, you have received His guidance and direction, so it's time to get up and start moving forward...
