⚖️Prophetic Vindication: The Lord is My Defense⚖️

"Sometimes a person, in his or her zeal to prove his or her innocence, makes statements that the enemy uses against him or her. That is why Christians need the Lord as the head of their defense team. The bottom line is, when you are the Lord’s and you are in right standing with Him, He will defend and eventually vindicate you."

Submitting to Authority

"One of the prevailing messages I have been hearing from pastors is about having a pastor as a “covering”. I could also go very in depth on that topic, but for the sake of “brevity”, I will skim around the edges. I believe in what we call the five-fold ministry based on Ephesians 4:11. Quite frankly, when the Lord called me to serve Him, I initially thought He was calling me as a pastor, in part because that was basically all I knew at the time. There are various ways to discern a person’s calling, to include based on the messages he or she is inspired to convey.

Elijah called the Israelites to ask how long they would waiver between two opinions, and to point them solely to the true and living God. The same applies today; if the Lord is God, follow Him (1 Kings 18:21)."

Love Has Limits 

Sadly, like Joseph’s brothers, some people have tried to kill the competition to improve their position. But, besides being sent to prison or a mental institution, they fail to remove the “competition” from the object of their desire’s heart.

Grounds For Divorce

"Can a person get divorced for another reason besides adultery, or the unbelieving spouse departing, and marry someone else without being an adulterer? If you said “No” you are absolutely correct, but please continue reading. Likewise, if you said “Yes” you are also correct..."

Human Intervention  

The Lord will never approach you, panic-stricken, because He cannot do without your help, especially because there was something He overlooked or could not foresee while He was making his plans. Jesus prophesied that He would be killed but He would rise on the third day. Well, the powers that be had rolled a stone... Continue Reading →
