And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God. Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; […]
Luke 2:7 is a very familiar story, especially at this time of year. Scripture says it this way, “While they were there, the time came for her Child to be born. And she gave birth to her firstborn, a Son. She wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger, because there was […]
I can hardly believe we are in December! It seems impossible that Christmas is almost here, but here we are. I love this time of year. I love Christmas, and I love giving—not just at Christmas, but throughout the year. While I know Christmas is not solely about giving, in many ways, it is. God […]
In Genesis 1, we read; So, God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over […]
He prepares me for battle; he strengthens me to draw a bow of bronze. Psalm 18:34 In the past few days I have thought about a story a friend once told me about the Winchester Rifle, and when it was first invented. She shared with me how, the military had the rifles and used them […]
Sometimes kids amaze me. Especially when they throw the words you have been trying to teach them back at you. The other day, Breanne and I, were having a conversation about work. I made the following statement… “If we are going to do this project, we should do it now. We don’t always have good […]
When I awoke this morning, the first words I heard were…blessed to be a blessing. In Genesis 12:2, God told Abraham that He was going to bless him abundantly. He went on to say that Abraham would, in turn, be a blessing to others. I love how the Amplified Bible says it. And I will […]
I could feel it in my spirit. I could sense it in the atmosphere…this day would be an important day. I had felt it for weeks, somehow I knew, getting past this day was going to be important in my walk with God. One would imagine, based on the feelings I was having, something significant […]
One past Christmas season, Kelita sent me pictures of her Christmas decorations. I fell in love with her wonderful display of vintage pinecones ornaments. I told her how lovely I thought they were. Not too long after that, she sent me a beautiful green, vintage pinecone that year, to start my own collection, she said. […]
I have heard this in my spirit for weeks, “Nothing is impossible with God.” Not only have I been hearing this from God, but numerous prophetic words are declaring the same thing. The best part is it comes straight from the word of God. It IS His promise to us as believers. The Bible has […]
Pressure. We all experience it in one form or another, sometimes, daily. It may come from family issues, work deadlines, finances, kids, or many other life challenges. The weight of these things may at times feel like more than we can bear, yet God promises His grace is sufficient for us, and it is. Still, […]
I love the Christmas season! I always have. One of the reasons has always been because it has a different atmosphere…you could almost feel love in the air. I don’t know if it’s because of all the chaos and division in our world today – but I must say, I have not felt that same […]
I recently read a word by Russ & Kitty Walden concerning debt freedom and prosperity. While I am not sharing the entire word, I want to share portions of it by creating a declaration for you to declare and pray over the next few months. Or until you see the manifestation of this prophetic word. […]
I once read a word by Bill Burns that the Lord led me back to this week and I want to share it with you. It said, “Listen, My people. Listen. I am shouting from the roof tops; this is the season of great joy. And, great joy I will release to you, which will […]

This time of year, causes me to look back and reflect. That’s just what I have been doing this week. I have been reflecting on the second Christmas after we buried Jesse and then Tanya. It was the holidays; my grandchildren were so excited. Me, I could not shake the depression and darkness I was […]
Some days the precision and timing of God amaze me. Although it was several years ago now, I remember this day as if it were yesterday. Breanne and I decided to drive to Cleveland for the day. We both needed a day off – so we made plans to have a fun time. At least […]
…so that every word may be confirmed by the testimony of two or three witnesses. (Matt 18:16) I thought of this scripture as I once again read a prophetic word that said God was not finished with this year. God always confirms His word. At least, that is my experience. He will often tell me […]
Although it has been a few weeks, I am still pondering on tipping points – as God continues to bring this subject to mind. One definition of a tipping point is; as the point at which an issue, idea, product, etc., crosses a certain threshold and gains significant momentum, triggered by some minor factor or […]
I once read an article that reminded me of the power of praying in tongues. That article has come to mind many times recently. The article was not by a minister; it was by a mother. It was on Good Morning America. The article told about a Mom who heard her seven-year-old boy struggling with […]
