Father, help us to always keep you first and foremost in our thoughts – help us to be more concerned with You and what pleases you. Help us to know that all those things are added as we put You first, this I ask in Jesus name. Amen. […]
Hebrews 11:1 says; now faith is the substance of things HOPED FOR. I have been thinking about this scripture over the weekend after reading several emails from partners who have seemingly lost hope in what they believed God for. According to this scripture, faith must have something to give substance to…it must have hope. If […]
Father, I ask you today to renew our faith. To cause faith to rise up within us in such a way that it would empower us to trust one more time, to pray once again, to stand in faith as if we have never been disappointed, this I ask for everyone reading this today, in […]
It’s that time of year again, the time when I usually enjoy a good plate of crappie. A few years ago, as many of you know, one of my uncles who loves to fish, introduced me to crappie. I just love it. For the first few years when it was the season and timing to […]
I recently read an article by Victoria Osteen, I don’t often read her articles but I just loved this one. I love what she said about teaching her children instead of punishing them and reinforcing her love for them. I also loved what she said about how we speak about our spouses…this entire article is […]
Today I want to talk with you about something a little different, I want to share my story about my prayer shawl with you…but first I want to share some interesting facts about the prayer shawl. • The Tallit (prayer shawl) was to remind the Jew of the word of God. The fringes not only […]
The other night I was thinking about a particular season I had gone through. As I thought about it and pondered it in my mind, the Lord spoke to me and said ‘you didn’t embrace that season.’ It was a gentle rebuke but a rebuke nevertheless. Let me share a little about that season. It […]
While cleaning up some files this week I came across a teaching from a few years ago. I did not come across this teaching once, but seven or eight times, therefore I stopped and read it and thought it may be a good time to send this out once again, I believe it is for […]
I know our partner letter is late however, I have been waiting on the Lord. For a few days I have felt I needed to write on FAVOR but I didn’t know which direction to go….therefore I waited. Last night I was listening to a teaching by Kris Vallatton from Bethel Church in Redding, California. […]
Over the past couple weeks something has happened to me that has never happened, at least as far back as I can remember. During the past two weeks, as I have been traveling a back, (country) road, I have come upon someone who is out of gas. The first instance occurred a couple weeks ago, […]
I was glad when they said to me let us go to the House of the Lord! Psalm 122:1 […]
This week I have been reminded of a time, not too long ago, when a friend came to visit me from out of town. It was during the time when my foot was first hurt and when it was at its worst pain level. My friend, Donna, prayed for my foot. I wasn’t expecting what […]
There is a song that has been playing in my head for a few days, an old song, from Isaiah 40:31. It says ‘those that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint, teach […]
Every single seed sown into this ministry is a blessing – and we thank you for it – we declare that you are blessed each time you are a blessing – that’s what the Bible says and we declare it over you today – YOU ARE BLESSED! May your blessings multiply this month and overtake […]
Over the past two weeks I have watched Breanne go through battle after battle concerning her new ‘fixer-upper’ home. She is currently moving in but the battle has been hard for her. All through this time I have encouraged her to hold her peace, to respond according to God’s word instead of reacting in anger. […]
I read a prophetic word yesterday after I wrote the motivation, I felt it went along with what I had written. While I don’t believe every prophetic word spoken is for every single person reading it, I do believe we can find insights in many different teachings and even in prophetic words, this was one […]
Where there is no vision, the people perish. Proverbs 29:18 Many of you wonder what you do between vision and fulfillment. Proverbs 29:18 tells us that where there is no vision, the people perish. The word perish means to let go. Many times that is what happens, people lose sight of their vision and they […]
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 I heard a statement from the Lord this week about a person I was praying for. God said they had ‘derailed their destiny.’ Strong words, […]
On Monday night we had a Passover celebration at our ministry office. I taught a short message on Passover and then we went over the blessings of Passover. We then took communion. At the end I prayed and declared the blessings of Passover over each person who attended. One of the people who attended was […]
