Don"t Take On
Be careful not to take on more than you can effectively handle. To overextend yourself on any level would require a time of extended recovery whether physically, emotionally, mentally, financially or spiritually. Stay within your safe boundaries and do nothing apart from My leading, says the Lord. Take time along the way to be refreshed by seeking My face and establishing yourself in My presence.
A word from the Lord, needed at this time of the year.

HE HAS COME AND REDEEMED US
“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed his people. He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),”- Luke 1:68-70
PRAISE THE LORD!
THE LORD HAS COME AND HE HAS REDEEMED HIS PEOPLE.
WE ARE HIS PEOPLE. WE ARE REDEEMED, DELIVERED, SET FREE FROM SIN AND DEATH.
HE HAS COME AND REDEEMED US, WALK IN YOUR REDEMPTION.

It's Going to be Great in 2008
Let that resonate in your spirit! But what must I do to bring it to past you might ask? Good question. Seek God with your whole heart. Set goals and act upon them. Line your self up, with folk that will help bring your dreams to pass. Get rid of the nay sayers.
And believe in yourself.
Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19

Attitude
The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today.
Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window.
"I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.
"Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait."
"That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged...it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away".
My Sistas we must make a decision to be happy. Decide to every day. Peace!

Enough is Enough
Time is ticking. If not now, then when? I refuse to let the enemy win. This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad! No more tears or fears. I'm coming out.
What the devil meant for bad, God will turn it for the good. No more sleepless nights, crying and wondering why. Enough is Enough. I'm coming out; letting go and letting God work it all out.
Ladies, "Enough is Enough!" It's time to put the enemy under your feet and show him who you are --and whose you are! In Jesus' mighty name. Amen!
Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.

Success in Thanksgiving
It's thankful Tuesday
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57
When Jesus thanked God for the loaves and fishes, He was expressing gratitude to the Father for the provision. Jesus was not mindful of the amount, as the disciples were, but He was mindful of the source. Whenever we give thanks to God, we are respecting the source. This is important to recognize. We never need to fear what man has or lacks, but when we recognize the source we will always get the victory. Jesus was able to triumph over lack, because He thanked God for the seed (seven loaves, two fishes) but He had a vision for the full provision (feeding the multitude). The seed sown in thanksgiving brought in the harvest. Giving thanks brings success to the seed sown.

Look into the mirror
Good morning Sistas',
What do we see when we look into the mirror?
© Do we see a great, magnificent creation of God?
© Do we see an abandoned little girl ?
© Do we see a successful entrepreneur?
© Do we see the son or daughter of a king?
© Do we see ourselves as victims always being picked on?
How we see ourselves determines how much worth we attach to ourselves, our attitudes, our interactions with others, the way we conduct our affairs, and our perspective about life in general. It affects everything that we do. For example, it determines if we set goals and what kind of goals we set; the kind of person we marry; and, even the company we keep. If I see myself as a failure, then, more than likely, I will fail. If I see myself as an overcomer, then, more than likely, I will overcome.
Dear Jesus, what we see determines what we seize. When Moses sent the 12 spies to search out

Be Still
My Sistas'
Be still. Today is a day of resting and hearing. I will be speaking in quiet and obscure ways. Quieten your spirit and soul before Me. In the midst of all you do, create within you a special chamber of peaceful quietude. Keep your eyes alert and sometimes let them linger on each thing you see. I will show you what you have never seen. Notice the winds today. Create an attitude of expectancy. I will be speaking in many different ways. Concentrate on areas of your body that need My touch of healing. Linger long at those needs for healing. Try to think only of Me, and not the need, and what I am doing to heal. Be still.
Psalms 46:9-10 "Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."

A Prayer for You
It's Marvelous Monday!
Dear Lord,
I thank You for this day.
I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning.
I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.
Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.
Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.
Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.
Continue to use me to do Your will. Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.
I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those that don't believe. But I thank you that I believe.
I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.
I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Awaken To Abundance
"…let your soul delight itself in abundance, incline your ear and come to Me. Hear and your soul shall live." [Isaiah 55:2b-3]
My favorite time is early morning and my favorite place is outside where the dawn is stirring, darkness turns to light and the whole earth turns over to greet the day. The scent of earth is potent with abundant life and the flicker of light that filters through the trees is full of promise. This is the day that the Lord has made and the whole earth rejoices in it!
Beginning the day from this plain equips you to face the world; it empowers you to carry abundance into the desert places of life. Someone once said disciples are just beggars telling other beggars where to get bread—I disagree! Disciples become the living bread and as they go they distribute what they have received—they give away out of their abundance and in the giving continually receive.
Abundance is found in abiding…"And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him" God in you, you in God--what greater abundance could there be! Abundance is found in giving. "Give and it will be given to you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over…" [Luke 6:38]
Abundance is found in attitude…"Let this same attitude and purpose and mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus; Let Him be your example…" [Philippians 2:5 AMP]

You Are A Change Agent
”And be not conformed to this world…be transformed…prove what is good…" [Romans 12:2]
Did you ever stop to think that the transforming power of God can only be released through change and life is measured by the moment by moment decisions we make to move away from the shoreline of yesterday.
Are you managing change—or is change managing you? Change is not just something ‘put on us by the world.’ By the very nature of the new birth we become change agents in the world in which we live. In this climate of confusion and in answer to our questions, we have the following responsibilities to ourselves and to the world: 1) To continually be renewed according to God’s Word. 2) To provide an environment for personal change and spiritual growth. 3) To call for change and be leaders of change in our society. 4) To minister to a world which is collapsing under the burden of unmanaged and destructive change.

Your Words
I greet you in the marvelous name of Jesus the Christ!. It's marvelous Monday.
1. Your Words set the cornerstones for your life – When you frame your world with Gods Words you usher Gods will into the earth. (Hebrews 11:3)
2. Your Words will either be responsible for your Success or your Failure; your death or your life. (Proverbs 18:20-21)
3. Nothing in your life will change until Gods Words are spoken. Chaos will remain in your life until you speak words of Faith to change it. Faith SPEAKS! (Genesis 1:2, Psalm 138:2, Psalm 119:50, 2 Corinthians 4:13) Amen!

A New Thing
Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold I do a new thing…" [Isaiah 43:18-19]
Every morning I arise and view the loveliness of God's surrounding creation and I realize I am drinking in something totally new. Everything the eye glances upon is different than it was the day before. The colors, size, shape and even sounds. It is the way of God—where He is there is always a fresh touch, there is always change. His mercies are new every morning; they are from everlasting to everlasting. He makes all things new—continually—and there is joy in the morning .
Three areas are empowered in His Spirit as we go deeper into the Life of Christ.
1) A decision of the will that will shut the door to yesterday, a determination to eradicate yesterday's faults, failures, successes or securities—do not remember the former things. Paul said, "…forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead—I press on!" [Philippians 3:13-14]
2) No room to rehearse or repeat mindless games of why—what if or if only. Regardless of their rating running old movies in the mind will obliterate your vision of God's Will for today. Jesus said, "I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me." [John 14:30] There was no room in the Inn when Jesus arrived and when He departed there was no room In Jesus but the desire to complete the Father's Will.
3) Go ahead and have great expectation—its called FAITH it comes from living in the Root! "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches, I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star." [Revelation 22:16]
"Do not remember the former things,[that's last year, last month, last week or yesterday!] Nor consider the things of old [that's don't think about it---don't dwell on them-slam the door shut!] Behold I do a new thing!" Have great expectation, what God has done before He will do again---He's the same yesterday today and forever!

Never Again
Real success in life comes from knowing and acting upon the Word of God. As it states in Joshua 1:8:
"This Book of the Law [the Word of God] shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success."
Make the quality choice for your life that you will become a Word person. You may be called an "extremist" by some, but you will be extremely healed, extremely prosperous, and extremely blessed! If it doesn't line up with the Word, then we don't want it in our lives. Remember, our God always performs His Word, not our version of it.
I suggest printing the following list and keeping it handy for when fear, doubt and all around attack from the enemy comes your way. Instead of mulling over those negative, unproductive thoughts, take hold of the promises and truth of the Word of God that is contained within this list, and meditate on them.
This is who God says you are, this is how He sees you. Believe it and receive it as yours. Your words are more powerful than you think. Retrain yourself in how you speak, and begin to speak these out over yourself, and you will be amazed at the change that will take place. The change will be gradual, but it will take place.
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit."
Proverbs 18:21
Over the next few days we will look at the never again list. And speak life over our life.
NEVER AGAIN will I confess or focus on "I can't," because the Word says: "I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13)
NEVER AGAIN will I confess or focus on fear, because the Word says: "God has not given me a spirit of fear, but one of power, love and a sound mind." (2 Timothy 1:7)
NEVER AGAIN will I confess or focus on doubt and a lack of faith, because the Word says: "God has dealt to each one [every person] a measure of faith." (Romans 12:3)

Disappointment
"Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines…yet I will rejoice in the Lord…" [Habakkuk 3:17]
There are several things we can discipline ourselves to do when things don't happen they way we thought they should.
Rejoice and be joyful. Habakkuk was facing the reality of real disappointment, desolation and no hope of a turn around from poverty to prosperity but He looked to God and the power of a thankful heart lifted him to victory. "The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights." [Habakkuk 3:19]
Maintain your confidence Paul had learned the secret of knowing God's Sovereignty in all circumstances. "… I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…I can do every thing through him who gives me strength." [Philippians 2:12b,13]
Persevere Keep on moving forward—Don't turn into the café of sulks or downward spiral thinking—move on to the next place of God's appointment. The next task may bring the miracle you've been waiting for Paul said, "…signs, wonders and miracles—were done among you with great perseverance" [2 Corinthians 12:12]
Remember my sistas trouble don't last always!! I can an do all things through Christ.

Mistakes Are Important Teachers
All around us life is offering opportunity after opportunity. The problem is that in many cases these little jewels are hidden. In order for us to be aware of them we have to be willing to look for them. The question is how do we do this?
Remind yourself that failures are not always failures but lessons.
Find one occurrence in your own life where you have not learned from a past mistake? While it can be true that we don't gain direct rewards from mistakes we still gain something of great importance.
Therefore we need to explore our failures and take the time to use them as our teachers.

Shake It Off
Good morning my Sistas',
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway, it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up. As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off.

Putting His Word in Practice
"We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are."
-- Max DePree
Good Morning My Sista's,
I greet you this morning in the marvelous name of Jesus the Christ!
When one is born again he comes into Christ. That is the only way you can get "in Him." But Jesus said, " If my my words abide in you..... abide means to live. His word lives in me to the extent that I practice it. Many Christians sistas are born-again, and in Him, but His word is not abiding in them. The word abides in me in the measure I practice it. I may memorize it, quote it, or even preach it, without it living in me. The word lives in me only to the measure practice it. I must let the Word of the Lord have free course in me, teaching me, governing me, dominating me.

Be Careful Of What You Say
What are you saying; are your words good or bad,
Positive or negative, happy or sad?
The words of your mouth lead to failure or success.
Do you ever wonder how you got into that mess?
You are in charge of the words that you speak.
Will you be strong, or will you be weak?
Do you speak words of sickness, or words of health?
Do you speak of poverty, or are your words of wealth?
What you say each day is what comes to pass in your life.
Are your days full of peace, or are they full of strife?
Your life will reflect the words that you say.
Speak positive, uplifting words and life will manifest that way.
Speak negative, depressing, 'Oh, poor me' kind of things...
Then the road to failure is what these words will bring.
It's your choice; it's up to you.
What are you saying; what will you do?
The bible say that death and life are in the power of the tongue. my sistas please speak life!

You never know who these people may be but when you lock eyes with them, youknow that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.And sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem horrible,painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower or heart.
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheerstupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. Safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.
The people you meet affect your life. The successes and downfalls that youexperience can create who you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.
If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them because they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart.If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and to open your heart and eyes to little things.
Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can,for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are agreat individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe inyourself, no one else will believe in you.
Create your own life and then go out and live it."If you take your eyes off your goals, all you see are obstacles."

A Word From The Lord
My Sista's
I tell you My people, without faith you cannot please Me. How are you going to lay hands on the blind for them to see if you have no faith? How are you going to lay hands on the lame for them to walk if you have no faith? How am I going to use you to unstop deaf ears if you have no faith?
The evil one has caused many of you to be walking in fear and doubt, but I say rebuke him! Haven’t I told you in My word that I have not given you the spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind? The preaching of the Gospel must be followed by sign and wonders as a witness to the unbelievers. Walk in power My people, walk in love, walk in boldness.
Didn’t Peter by his very shadow heal the sick? Didn’t I perform mighty miracles by the hands of Paul, that even handkerchiefs taken from his body, when brought to the sick they were loosed of their infirmities and evil spirits departed? Am I not the same yesterday, today and forever? Why tie My hands with your doubt and unbelief? Didn’t I say greater works shall ye do if ye believe on Me? Haven’t I told you that in the last days I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh, and there will be sign and wonders in the Heavens above and in the earth below? Am I not able to bring it to pass? Walk in My power My people, walk in boldness, walk in My authority and walk in love—saith the LORD.

I am Somebody
I am a child of God.
I am in Heir of God.
I am a Joint- Heir with Christ Jesus
I am more than a Conqueror through
Christ Jesus who loves me
If God be for me, who can be against me?
The 91st Psalm declares unto me
That as long as I dwell in the secret
place of the most High,
Which is the word of God, I shall abide
under the shadow, The protection,
The provisions of the Almighty God.
It futher bears witness in me that
God is my refuge(my hiding Place)
My fortress my strength and my God
(the one whom I worship.)
Because of this, I am not afraid
of the snare of the fowler
Nor the noisome pestilence for
A thousand shall fall at one side and
Ten thousand at my right hand, but
it shall not come nigh my dwelling.
Only with mine eyes shall I behold
see the reward of the wicked'.
MY SISTA'S
DECLARE WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU HAVE IN CHRIST.

One Flaw
One Flaw In Women
Women have strengths that amaze men.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy
and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.
They don't take "no" for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.
They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.
They are happy when they hear about
a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they
think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss
can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.
The heart of a woman is what
makes the world keep turning.
They bring joy, hope and love.
They have compassion and ideas.
They give moral support to their
family and friends.
Women have vital things to say
and everything to give.
HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAWIN WOMEN,
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
You are amazing!

Greater Than
I greet you in the name of Jesus!!
1 John 4:4
Ye are of God little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you , than he that is in the world.
Affirmation:
Because I am in Christ, the Greater One lives in me. He is greater than the devil. Greater than disease. Greater than depression. Greater than all circumstances. And He lives in me.!
My Sista's chew on that today!

Grandma's Cake
I am coming to know Christ better everyday.I have a glorious inheritance working inside of me.I have ressurection power within me. I am filled with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places.
Grandma's Cake
A little boy is telling his Grandma how "everything" is goingwrong. School, family problems, severe health problems, etc...Meanwhile, Grandma is baking a cake.
She asks her grandson if he would like a snack, which of course he does. "Here, have some cooking oil." "Yuck" says the boy. "How about a couple raw eggs? "Gross, Grandma!" "Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?" "
Grandma, those are all yucky!"To which Grandma replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all bythemselves. But when they are put together in the right way, theymake a wonderfully delicious cake!
God works the same way. Many times we wonder why he would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make somethingwonderful!"
And we know that all things work together for the good.........

Affirmations
Christian Affrimations
"I will sing with my spirit, but I also will sing with my mind" 1Corinthians 14:15b (NIV)
In the garden of our minds, weeds can choke out the beautiful flowers that God intends for us to have. These weeds are destructive, unhealthy thoughts, beliefs, and interpretations left over from years of automatic thinking. They are called self-destructive thought patterns. God calls for in Romans 12:1-2 to renew our mind, we will begin to look at how we can chase these weeds out, get rid of the stinking thinking and replanting the void with the beauty of Godly abundance. Affirmations are the most powerful, immediate way to replant your garden. Affirmations are strong, positive and statements about you.
-- I am attracting infinite wealth and unlimited abundance.
-- I am whole and perfect as God created me.
-- I love me. .
-- I have infinite worth and unlimited potential.
-- I know God has a purpose for me everyday. I will look for His guidance, and lean on His strength.
-- I will pray for my children to seek God for their own sakes, and to learn to follow Him in trust and love.
-- I choose to accept the pain I have been resisting because I know it is healthy for me and will help me move forward.
-- I am attracting divine people and healthy, loving relationships.
-- Love is more valuable than silver or gold.
Take one every day, Be blessed.
