Celebrating Resurrection Sunday He Paid It All For Us

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
John 3:16-17

I am so thankful God so loved the world that He sent His only son Jesus to die for the world. This means whoever you are and wherever you are on the globe, Christ died for you. He died once for all.

This Easter Sunday let us reaffirm in our heart that Christ died for all. Its time to move away from focusing our attention on the outward adornment, or which church has the best choir and which church is more prestigeous. Instead let our focus be the cross and the price Christ paid for you and me, to reconcile us back to the Father. As I write this, I want to cry, because we, who say we know Him, take  lightly that Christ died for the world. We tend to want to keep our head in the sand and say my four and no more and that the world is too far. I have news for you, the world has come to dwell among us. They may not look  like you and speak a different language. Their customs and faith may be different, but it does not change the fact that Christ died for all. Someone who did not look like me told me about Jesus and it changed my life.  The message of the cross is powerful and it is not subject to boundaries, customs, race or nationality.  The message of the cross is life changing and we who have experienced this change must not be afraid to share it with the world. We are Christ ambassadors to the nations around us and far from us. If you can't go, pray. Stand in the gap by your prayers. The fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much, (James 5:16). Lets get back to being people who believe the word of God, speak the word of God and live by the word of God. Let this Easter Sunday awaken in us that God so loved the world and  whosoever believes in Him and lives for Him become His children.

Christ death on the cross and His resurrection from the grave purchased our salvation
and so much more. We received healing for our body when His body was beaten and bruised, (Isaiah 53:5).  We have access to the throne of grace and can come boldly to our heavenly Father, (Hebrews 4:14 – 16). We received the spirit of adoption making us joint-heirs with Christ, (Romans 8:15-17) and are saved from God’s wrath (Romans 5:9). He paid it all for us, the world.
Whether you attend church or fellowship at home, celebrate our risen savior with praise and thanksgiving. Our God, who is a Good Good Father and perfect in all of His ways, is worthy of all praise, all honor, and all glory.

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 ...

Umbrella Lady

I have always admired this picture...the elegant lady with the umbrella...It reminds me of an expression my friend often says, " My Umbrella Has Holes ".  She was speaking of her life and some of the things she had experienced.  When I look at this picture I see my friend, an umbrella with out holes, happy, stately and strong. Do you ever feel like your umbrella has holes?  Life can sure make it feel that way at times.  Perhaps you are a single mother raising children on your own; or a college graduate having difficulty securing a job in your field. You may be a teenager feeling like you don't quite fit in. Maybe you are a victim of rape or incest and you feel so violated that you wonder if you will ever regain your life back. Perhaps you are sadden over a  loss of a job,or dealing with a sickness that have you asking, " Why Me ". These are certainly," My   umbrella has holes moments ". Although we may have our umbrella has holes moments/sea...

Feed My Sheep

Jesus Reinstates Peter John 21:15-20 New International Version (NIV) When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.” Jesus said,  “Feed my lambs.” Again Jesus said,  “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said,  “Take care of my sheep.” The third time he said to him,  “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time,  “Do you love me?”  He said, “Lord, you know all things;  you know that I love you.” Jesus said,  “Feed my sheep.     Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.”   Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death ...
