Psalm 8:4-9 4What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? 5 For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, 7 All sheep and oxen— Even the beasts of the field, 8 The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas. 9 O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth! Obviously the above  scripture is a clear indication that we are worth more to God than we can even measure in  our thoughts. But we are careless to diminish our worth by not believing what God says about us. Creator God himself says we are crowned with glory and honor. We cannot do anymore or be anymore for God to love us more than he does right now. Jesus Christ is the complete ransom for our worth and the confirmation of his death and resu...

By now we have started to try and figure out things in this new year. For many of us this  will require great attention to the way we proceed into the future. I think one thing we should do is to look at the positive and be motivated to link up to people That  have  an humanitarian heart. Then avoid those whose ideas and motives trigger  negative results. I believe we can be radical on some ideas, but never irrational and crush hope for all of us. Let's face it a 2017 outlook is different from a 2016 outlook. Uncertainty may lurk down the corridor of destiny that many cannot navigate, This is our opportunity to grab and cherish every reliable constant source. Jesus Christ is the constant friend that sticks closer than any brother. People change their minds, their beliefs,attitudes and so on,but Jesus never changes his mind about us.

The J esus Brand “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:35 If you are a consumer anywhere in western civilization, you are no doubt exposed to branding. Marketing strategist will use branding to pull you to a specific product,image,idea or even thought.  Branding can personify individuals and project their characteristics many times and authenticate them. Brands are easily recognized in all industries such as Oil, Automotive,Medical,Food,Clothing And many others.  A certain logo or a phrase associated with a brand  rarely goes unnoticed by the general public. Like I mentioned, many  celebrities have a brand that they use and thus monetize themselves greatly. Can you remember last time that you used a high profile brand product that made you feel That it was something special and it made you feel special too? Having a brand is not easy, it requires sacrifice of  time,resources but mostl...

In recent months many communities and urban cities have been labeled as being hopeless. These neighborhoods have this labeling because many of the traits that its inhabitants display are considered to be hopeless or without hope. .Hopelessness is a direct result of a situation in which a Community may exist in. When people are hopeless they sometimes do desperate things in the midst of that hopelessness in order to survive. Many times that move of desperation is not positive and will not bring forth positive results unless someone or something has built trust into Their lives. . That trust is all about love and respect for our fellow man. Many people do not respect or trust anything or anyone. but that's living in fear in fear sometimes brings about desperation and that desperation can causes irrational Behavior, resentment, hatred,and ignorance toward each other. When Jesus ministered he always ministered to the heart and spirit of others. Even when he performe...

The Who should Pray Praying to God should not be an option for those who are inT he kingdom of God . But truly they understand and know that God hears their petitions. But sinners also have the opportunity to pray and ask God for help and save them from their sins through the blood of Jesus By confessing and receiving the gift of salvation. We cannot be afraid to go to God in prayer even if we are unsure of his answer, But we can be assured the answer will always be just and it will be the answer that is best for us.    The What to Pray Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26 The When to Pray The Bible clearly states that we are to always pray, But that doesn't mean to do nothing else but pray. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says to Pray without ceasing and to carry on  stated ...

There is little doubt that we live in the world that requires security when it comes to our  private and personal life. Without security measures in place we can place in Jeopardy our very life. And possibly the life of others. I believe our vulnerabilities today are often exposed by those that would do Us harm . Quite frankly, many times  our Behavior will often be questioned and tested. There are those that think that an scrupulous Behavior will go unnoticed Just because that behavior was conducted behind closed doors or in Secret. But In the Book of Luke 12 chapter we read “ All your actions shall be brought to light, either in this world or in the next. Wherefore take great care never to do any thing which cannot bear the light, but let the whole of your behaviour be fair, honest, and good.” This verse does not condemn secret behavior but it does defines the type of secret behavior.  if our behavior Is done behind closed doors, then it must ...

But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole. Isaiah 53:5 AMP http://bible.com/8/isa.53.5.AMP

"Barriers"  There are many uses for barriers in our lives, whether they are the structural material types or the spiritual type that are place by God to shield the believer from various dangers or calamities that would surely take them out. I believe barriers with spiritual purpose will always allow those who love God the option to lower that barrier but not the integrity it possess. It is the lowering of the barrier not standards that will allow some unsaved individuals to find Christ in the believer's life testimony. A fence is a barrier that will keep things in and it will keep things out.  In the book of Job we find that Job has an hedge or fence around him.  supposedly placed by God. Now the devil recognized the hedge as protection for Job but he wanted it removed to prove a point and cause Job to curse or doubt God.but the devil failed to see that the power was not in the 'hedge' but the power was in the faith Job had in God to provide whatever he needed....

During the Christmas Holidays, I was attending a program at a local church where we as a family like to worship.  The service was awesome and was well attended with people from every background which made it even better because people can experience the love of Jesus Christ and take it to their own communities and spread it throughout. Which brings me to this point, at the end of the service I was greeting various ones in the crowd as we were being dismissed by the Pastor, then I walked over to some of my family members who were  sitting nearby and now standing in a circle talking. Then one them said directly to me,"what are you doing" I replied "nothing, just holding my wife's  purse while she converse with others. this seemed a  little strange coming from this person because  he could plainly see what I was doing at this time there was nothing else for me to do but that. Even in the natural response I felt strange saying 'I am doing nothing'. But I k...

Today I am encouraged to energize my prayer life with more prayer that will bring change in the way I  focus on situations around me. the focus is actually not on the situation but on what the Word says about it and my faith linked to it. Distractions often rob us of victories that are already ours. this is very true when we need to pray for others and ourselves. FOCUS and PRAY

I believe that the prayer chamber is a place of intimate conversation with God that in itself is enough for us to believe that this place of solitude or extreme serenity and yet intimate conversation between God and man must be used more today. The prayer chamber or prayer closet is more than just the place of meditation or place to decompress from a day of chaos and confusion in your life it is the place where you are focused in on the Almighty and the things that he is trying to show you for you life,it is a place of worship and a place of humility. When we need answers or directions then we need to enter into a prayer Chamber and cast our cares upon him who loves us even when we miss The mark. If you are a believer then the prayer chamber is the place for you! The chamber does not have to be a physical place, you can just close your eyes and focus in on the presence of God and He will meet you there.
