Inheritance

Greetings all in the name of Christ Jesus our Lord


What a beautiful fall morning it is. I love the crisp weather and the colorful fall landscape. There is something about fall that is quieting and peaceful. It always puts me in the mood to bake, make homemade soup or have a hot cup of tea.


Psalms 16:5-7
O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;Yes, I have a good inheritance.


Since the passing of my father in April, my family have faced many challenges. The challenges, however, are self-inflicted as a result of family members not listening to one another and the other part is just plain greed. Our dad would be heartbroken to know that his children were at odds over money.  It is a sad thing to witness and my heart at times is grieved. I continue to pray for my siblings to surrender their heart totally to God and for God to reveal himself to them in this situation. Prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have as believers because our prayers stay before God forever.  God loves my family and I know my siblings love each other.  It is one of those unfortunate things that tend to happen after the passing of a love one. God is faithful and I trust Him to continue to be faithful.   


Through it all God has reminded me in his word that He is my portion and my inheritance. God is my eternal inheritance and it can’t be undone by anyone. Thieves can’t break in and steal and it can’t be corrupted.  This is what I have chosen to embrace and it has given me peace.

Miriam

Miriam was the big sister of Moses. Her name (sometimes rendered as Mary in English) means 'bitter' although it could also signify 'one who loves or is loved by Yahweh'. Yahweh means 'the self-existent one'. Yahweh is one of the ways the children of Israel referred to God. Meet the family Amram and Jochebed were the father and mother of Miriam, Aaron and Moses. Moses was the youngest of the three yet became the leader of the pack (Exodus 2:3-4; Exodus 6:20; Numbers 26:59). Moses was the man who led Israel out of Egypt. As the big sister of the family Miriam knew all the secrets. Women often get to know about things that men don't. When Pharaoh of Egypt decreed the death of all Israel baby boys in a desperate attempt to curb the growth of Israel, Amram and Jochebed put baby Moses into a waterproof basket and set it on the river in an attempt to save his life. It was Miriam who was watching the basket when the daughter of Pharaoh discovered it. It w

What Happen To Your Rulership?

My desire is for women to be restored to their rightful place of rulership of Grace, Femininity, Beauty, Temperance, and Excellence.  Together they work from within and shine outwardly. The enemy of our soul works counterclockwise in that he uses the exterior and destroys what is on the inside. There is a direct correlation between rulership and judgment.  In order to effectively rule, there must be the practice of sound judgment.  When rulership is void of sound judgment, a poor rulership is inevitable.  Rulership is a choice.  You can either rule or be ruled.  Walking in rulership is important because it sets order and establishes boundaries.  God (YAH) has given us rulership over our conduct, appearance, and speech.  These things have rulership over you by choice. Rulership is the difference between YAH's people and the world. Rulership is living the way YAH (God) intended for us to live before the foundation of the world. It is time to take a long hard look in the mir

Is MakeUp Deceptive?

 Is there something deceptive about makeup? I believe it is a topic worth exploring. My interest in this topic awakened after receiving a makeup kit which a family member ordered for me online.  When the item arrived the name on the kit gave me an uneasy feeling because I understood the meaning of the name.  Dismissing the feeling I went ahead and used the makeup I had anxiously waited for. But the Lord brought it to my remembrance again and this time I could not ignore.    The Beauty Industry in the US, which includes hair care and skincare, is a 445 billion market (Forbes, May 2017). The US has the largest cosmetic market in the world. It was expected in 2016 to exceed 62 billion in revenue and is expected to maintain positive growth through 2018, (Market Research.com 2016) In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates cosmetics, defines cosmetics as “intended to be applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or
