Your 2011 Circumstances Are 2012 Opportunities
As I talked to several people last year, I realized that 2011 was rough year for a lot of them. Some people lost their jobs, homes, children and heck I almost lost my life in a car accident.
Regardless to the circumstances or problems you had, there is total deliverance out of everyone of them! Guess what? If you reading this post, you are still here and alive - thank the Lord!
God wants to use your 2011 circumstances as 2012 opportunities for his Glory. So stop reflecting on them with the mindset that you have been defeated but with the mindset that God was strong in those circumstances to bring you out of them. Let others know about how God came to your rescue and delivered you out of them all. Even if you still have some residue of them, don't grow weary or get faint because help is still on the way.
You will get closer to God as you go through these circumstances as He reveal to you how awesome and wonderful He is. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Yes you may have lost your job but guess what, God has a better job for you in 2012. You may have lost your home, but guess what, God has another home for you in 2012. Yes I was in a car accident but guess what, I had car insurance and my car looks better now than before I had the accident.
In conclusion, let's give God some glory for our 2011 circumstances and situations and anticipate the wonderful opportunities of 2012 as we seek God's supernatural deliverance!

Delve Into Your Purpose In 2012!
Greetings! I haven't written a post in a couple of days since I had a cold/flu. I should have it licked by the weekend. So, I did not get a chance to say Happy New Year yet. Since this is day 4 of 2012 and everybody is back to work and school, I would like to say Happy New Year! I pray that you and your family will have a blessed and prosperous year.
So, have you thought about what your purpose is for 2012? We are all here for a reason and a season. Since 2012 is representative of God putting things in order for His people, let's make this a priority.
What is it that you need to have God put in order so that you can operate in your purpose - the thing that you were put on this earth to do? It might sound simple but you will be surprised to find out that there are a lot of people who still don't know what they are gifted to do.
We all have creativity. That creativity stems from our makeup. We have a brain to come up with creative ideas. We have a mouth to declare the creativity without shame. We have hands to skillfully operate in our creativity.
Example: You love to cook. Use your brain to come up with healthy cooking tips and meals. Use your mouth to let others know about your recipes you have come up with for them to tryout. Use your hands to cook these healthy meals for the elderly, for a single mom who is working and going to school and don't have time to cook healthy meals for her kids or help your local church by doing a fund raiser for their your group with your cooking.
In conclusion, I pray that you spend time in prayer with the Lord so that He can reveal to you your purpose.

Let's Get Things In Order Using Our Skills, Knowledge And Abilities in 2012
I was reading the Word to see what scriptures there were pertaining to the word "order" since 2012 is fast approaching us and the number 12 represents order.
So I ran across Exodus 36:6-7 which reads "Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: "No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary." And so the people were restrained from bringing more, because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work. NIV
I began to read the previous scriptures and saw that Moses was to gather all the people who were skilled and crafted in order to build the sanctuary. These men were experts at what they did and they also were able to teach others how to become experts as well.
Those who did not have the skill or craft brought offerings to help with this order. So everybody played a role which means there was unity. The Bible says that where there is unity, the Lord commands His blessings. Now do you see why Moses gave the order for them to not bring anything else as an offering? They did the natural and God did the supernatural.
I believe that this is what we are to be doing now to establish God's kingdom here on earth. God has already given us the skills, knowledge and abilities to do his good and perfect will.
In conclusion, let's get things in order in our personal lives, in our homes and in our church using our skills, knowledge and abilities in order for us to have more than enough of God's blessings, favor and grace.

Are you True To HIS Task?
As I read Luke 10:1-9 tonight, I begin to reflect on what our task is now that Christ has left us here on earth to continue the work that He set out to do.
What is it that Christ came to do? He came to destroy the works of the devil according to I John 3:8. The works of the devil is to steal, kill and destroy. Do you see the works of the devil at work in your life or someone you know life? If so, then you have a task to do. Jesus came to do minister grace, love, peace and a life of abundance to those who serve Him. With this in mind, we are to share the love of God with those who the devil has attacked to the point that they are left lifeless.
Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the life. As we encounter the lifeless, they are to gain life because of the life of Christ within us. Peace should over shadow their confused mindset as we minister to their trying situation. They will be empowered by the Holy Ghost to want to live again and experience the abundant life that is available to them through Jesus Christ.
In conclusion, as you encounter others who are going through life without hope, defeated and lifeless, be mindful of the task that we have been given for the harvest truly is great but the laborers are few. I pray that the Lord will send forth laborers into His harvest.
Pray for 60 seconds or 60 minutes in comfort

Have You Ever Been Labeled As "The Help"?
Let's see if you have ever carried the title of "The Help". There's a new movie out called the Help and it also has an accompanied book. I look forward to seeing the movie when it airs based on the previews. I begin to think about the title of the book and movie which is "The Help" and decided to look into the word "help".
According to Merriam Webster Dictionary the definition of help is "to give assistance or support, to further the advancement of, to change for the better. So does this describe you? How often do you hear someone say to you "you're so helpful".
As children of the most high God, we are to be immitator of Christ by helping each other as we intercede for each other through prayer. During this time of famine, wars, rumors of wars and earthquakes, prayer should be made on behalf of this world and everybody in it. We must put our hope and trust in Christ. As we go to God in prayer as the only help we know, it will increase our faith and help us to trust God even more.
In conclusion, think about something and/or someone you can help by praying. As you put others before your own problems and situations, your problems and situations will supernaturally work out for your good.
If you are one who like to kneel when you pray, a kneeling prayer pillow will help you do it in comfort.

Who Are You Talking To?
I have a friend of mine who is contemplating leaving her spouse. I suggested that she should spend some time with God in His Word so that He can lead her and guide her.
She has her mind made up that there is no hope for her marriage. This is self talk is what I told her. In order to know what God has to say on the matter, I told her she has to get revelation from God.
After I finished talking to her about choices and consequences, she agreed that she does need to spend time with God and in His Word.
God is our protection and he will keep us from hurt, harm and danger. He can help us to cast down thoughts and imaginations that don't bring glory to God.
Here is a scripture that I believe is one to consider when having to make a serious decision:
Proverbs 11:14 – Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety. King James Version
In conclusion, divorce is not the will of God and there is no failure in God. Seek wise Godly counsel before making a decision that affects not only you but other family members also.

Talk To The Hand That Protects
Since yesterday was October 31st, the day that Halloween is celebrated, it brought back some scary memories I had as a kid. Here's why:
Growing up in New Orleans was very scary for me. I didn’t know a lot about evil spirits and what to do about them but for some reason, they loved hanging around the house I lived in. I always thought it was because people said that someone was buried under the house. As I would go to bed at night, somewhere during the night, I would see witches and ghosts. Yes, witches and ghosts. It was so scary. When this would happen, I would throw the cover over my head and start calling the name Jesus. I had to remind myself of the warring angels I read about in the Bible that were fighting spiritual wickedness on my behalf. I then was able to go back to sleep in peace. This wasn’t the only thing that made me afraid.
I remember the girl that everyone was afraid of because she could fight really well. So when she wanted to fight me, I reminded myself of the story of David and how he knocked out the giant Goliath that everyone was afraid of. I remember being afraid of being in the house by myself.
The scariest of all my fears was when I had to ride the bus home from my job at McDonald’s while in the 10th grade at 2 a.m. I believe that God dispatched angels to encamp around me so that I made it home safe.
I remember the time when I was standing at the counter of a gas station when a guy decided to pull out a gun to rob it. As the robber pulled out the gun, I looked eye to eye at him but was able to walk away without being hurt. During that situation, I had to pray really fast for God to let no weapon formed against me prosper. I know that there are other children today experiencing some of the fears I had and even more.
I believe that reason I was able to make it through these tough situations was because someone besides myself was praying for me also. Just as I believe that prayer warriors had been praying for me during my childhood, we should definitely intercede on behalf of our youth today.
In the Book of John, Jesus prayed to God for our protection through the power of His name. Pray that God would dispatch angels to watch over his people. Pray that as we teach our children about Jesus, that they will call on His name for protection when they are afraid. As you meditate on scriptures pertaining to protection, let’s believe that God’s grace and mercy will rule, reign and supercede the devil’s weapon that are formed against us to kill, steal and destroy the harvest of souls that are our youth.
“God provides protection for His children, so have no fear for Jesus is always near."

My Mission Is To Reap The Lost - Is It Yours?
What is your mission as a child of the most high God?
If you read Luke 4, you will see that Jesus gives his mission statement. Since we are created in His image and likeness, we should have the same mission. Jesus is concerned about the lost souls - those who don't realize that He died for their sins - let's do what Jesus wants us to do - reap the lost.
During this season of harvest, let's think about what we can do to reap the lost. As you read the new testament books, you will see that Jesus went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed by the devil.
Do you realize that you have been given the same authority? Just like you can water a plant that seems to be dying to bring life back to it, you can bring life to other's dead situations as you sow the word of God to bring restoration, hope, healing and deliverance to them. Give it a try. The word of God is sharp and powerful and does what God intends for it to do.
The next time you sense in your spirit that you have encountered someone who is walking in darkness and is lost, sow into them the word that the Holy Ghost has given you to reap a soul for the kingdom of God.
Here is Jesus mission statement:
Luke 4:17
The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captive, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. King James Version
In conclusion, as you operate in the power and authority that you have been given, you will be able to reap the lost by offering them healing, deliverance and illumination.

Do You Have Pumpkin Seed To Sow?
Since this is October, in Jacksonville, Florida, as you drive throughout the city, you will see lots of pumpkin patches. These pumpkin patches usually are visited by families as an outing on a Saturday or Sunday. Some of these pumpkins are huge. The kids visiting the pumpkin patch get to pick out a pumpkin to carve out a funny face on it. Those who look forward to making their favorite and famous pumpkin pies, look forward to picking out pumpkins to wow their family and friends. Basically, what I'm saying here is that the pumpkins are in their season and make great craft activities as well as delicious pumpkin pies.
Well, just like it is harvest time for pumpkin lovers, it is also harvest time for you. Genesis says that as long as the earth remains, there will be seedtime and harvest. What you are reaping as a harvest right now is based on what you have sown previously. Just like the pumpkin seeds were sown to produce a harvest during this fall season, you have sown financially and are reaping from it during this fall season as well.
Just like there are huge pumpkins during this harvest season, is your financial increase huge? It is definitely determined by how you sowed financially. When you sow sparingly, you reap sparingly and when you sow bountifully, you reap bountifully. If you want a harvest that is running over an in abundance, then sow accordingly.
In conclusion, know this, as you continue to sow your financial seed,
know that God will multiply it
know tha God will supply all your needs
know that He will give you an abundance of seed to sow
know that there will be a continual flow of His blessings in your life
know that you will walk in His divine sufficiency.
Here is a scripture to mediate on: Philippians 4:19
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. King James Version
Let's continue to sow our tithes and offerings to reap a financial harvest to the glory of God.

Trick Or Treat?
As I have stated at the beginning of this month - it is harvest time! Now you are wondering how could this be harvest time when people are still jobless, homeless and can't even see when there will be an end to their financial stresses.
The reason I can say this is because Jesus is still Lord of the harvest. He says in Genesis that as long as the earth remains there will be seedtime and harvest. You have not been tricked by God. God's word is true.
Now you will be tricked if you choose to listen the words that the enemy is feeding you such as telling you that you don't have to continue tithing and giving since you are unsure of what the economy will be like in the future. Don't give into the lie. God's resource NEVER runs out. You just need to know how to tap into them.
Now here's where the treat comes in, read Malachi 3:11 - it says:
And I will rebuke the devourer for your sake, and he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, niether shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, said the Lord of host. King James Version
In conclusion, as you continue to tithe and give during this season of economic uncertainty, God says that you will reap a harvest in the season that you are supposed to as you walk in obedience and in faith.

Go Get The Harvest Of Souls
There are many individuals during this time of uncertainty looking for answers to life's questions. Jesus said that He is the way, the truth and the life. Then there are those of us who already know this and have a duty of enlightening others of this revelation.
So why aren't we doing this? Well, I know we have jobs, families and other obligations but our main focus should be for the harvest of souls. There was no question about whether or not this was Jesus agenda. Not only did He let everyone know that He had to be about His father's business but He demonstrated it by compelling men to be saved.
Keep this word near you as you go to work, shop, travel, etc.
Matthew 9:37
Then said he to all his disciples, the harvest truly is plenteous but the laborers are few. King James Version
In conclusion, as soon as you accept your calling to win souls to the kingdom, you not only will be fulfilling one of your purposes but also help someone else to come to know the one and only true and living God - the Lord of the harvest.

Expect Your Abundant Harvest To Come!
The struggle is over! You are a child of the most High God. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills, all the gold is His and all the silver. As you tap into your inheritance that is due because of being in covenant with God, you can expect your abundant fiancial harvest to come.
Let's think about this for a minute. God wants us to acknowledge Him as our source. He is our strength and He gives us the wisdom we need to get the wealth that He has already predestined for us to have. As long as you keep things in perspective and not think that it is of your own strength and your own wisdom, then you will begin to experience your financial breakthrough.
You also need to know that God is blessing you to be a blessing. He is not going to increase you if you are selfish. You have to be about God's business and be a blessing to the kingdom. If this is not your attitude, then you harvest will leave you so fast until you won't be able to figure out what happened.
Here is a scripture to meditate on:
Leviticus 23:10
Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, when ye be come into
the land which I give unto you and shall reap the harvest thereof then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest. King James Version
In conclusion, as you begin to see your financial harvest come to fruition, you are to acknowlege God first by bringing your first fruit to your local church. This will not only be a blessing to you but for those who will be coming to the house for assistance.

Let's think about this for a minute. God wants us to acknowledge Him as our source. He is our strength and He gives us the wisdom we need to get the wealth that He has already predestined for us to have. As long as you keep things in perspective and not think that it is of your own strength and your own wisdom, then you will begin to experience your financial breakthrough.
You also need to know that God is blessing you to be a blessing. He is not going to increase you if you are selfish. You have to be about God's business and be a blessing to the kingdom. If this is not your attitude, then you harvest will leave you so fast until you won't be able to figure out what happened.
Here is a scripture to meditate on:
Leviticus 23:10
Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, when ye be come into
the land which I give unto you and shall reap the harvest thereof then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest. King James Version

During Harvest Time, Put God First And Receive His Provision For All Your Needs
If seems like most christians today are spending a lot of time worrying about their money, bills and anything else that has to do with money.
This is not the will of the Lord. God wants you to be free and delivered from those worries. As a child of the most high God, you are to walk in financial freedom and victory because you KNOW that God will supernaturally provide your every need.
As you are obedient in giving your tithes and offerings to God first, God will not only meet your needs but also enable you to live in a cycle of God's supernatural provisions where you reap God's abundance and all your needs are continually met. You will also operate in overflow in your finances and be a blessing to others in the kingdom of God.
Here is the scripture to meditate on so that you walk in faith and not fear, do the will of God and not worry:
Matthew 6:31-33
Therefore, take no thought saying what shall we eat or what shall we drink? or Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But see ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. King James Version
So don't worry at all about having enough food and clothing. Why be like the heathen? For they take pride in all these things and are deeply concerned about them. But your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them and he will give them to you if you give him first place in your life and live as he wants you to. The Living Bible
In conclusion, this is the will for God in your life, that you live in a cycle of His supernatural provision where you continually draw from God all that you need because it is harvest time!

It's Harvest Time
Today there was a change in the temperature here in Jacksonville, Florida. The leaves will be changing colors shortly. Thanksgiving will be here before you know it. Christmas will be celebrated by family and friends to close out the year.
Since this is the last quarter of the year, we should be evaluating what changes we need to make in order to finish out the year strong.
What is it that you set as a goal at the beginning of the year? Are you closer to getting it accomplished? What do you need to do to ensure that you accomplish it?
Here is a scripture that comes to mind when I think of this time of year:
Genesis 8:22
As long as the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. King James Version
What this verse says to me is that there is a proper time to sow and there is a proper time to reap. In order to reap, you have to sow. What are you sowing? Is it time for you to reap your harvest?
In conclusion, once you have evaluated where you are, do everything in the power of God to end this year reaping your harvest.

Is Child Trafficking A Business Decision?
Absolutely NOT - under no circumstances. I was watching the news today and it broke my heart. I am not a person who gets emotional about things but this one caught my attention.
The report was about how in the United States of America, yes, there is child trafficking taking place. There are children as young as 10 years old who are involved in this. The news reporter interviewed a young girl that had started doing child trafficking at the age of 13. She said that she gets paid $600 a day. It was a "business decision" she said. Why in the name of Jesus does a 13 year need $600 a day? I know what it is, it is the lust of the eye, lust of the flesh and the pride of life as indicated in the Bible.
Please pray for the sins of this world so that our family members will be saved before Jesus returns. Here is a scripture to meditate on:
John 8:34-36
Jesus replied, I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belong to it forever. So if the son sets you free, you will be free in deed. New International Version
In conclusion, there is hope for these children when they accept Jesus Christ into their heart. Jesus will free them from the hand of the enemy who comes to steal, kill and destroy them. I pray that someone introduces them to Jesus before it is too late. In the meantime, keep praying while utilizing your kneeling prayer pillow.

Starbucks and McDonald's Gourmet Coffee And Sin - What Do They Have In Common?
We are living in a generation where Starbucks, McDonald's and other restaurants are offering gourmet coffees and teas which happen to taste pretty good. I'm quite sure that Folger's will be coming out with their gourmet coffee soon - that's of course is only if they want to keep up with the competition.
So what does these gourmet coffees and sin have in common? Well, you be the judge. I was reading a comment on facebook where someone indicated that a young lady brought a cup of coffee to church and dranked it during the church service. Several people thought that it was so wrong to do to the point that they started sinning.
Here is a scripture that I believe would have been more appropriate to consider in this situation.
Galatians 6:1
Bretheren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual restore such an one in the spirit of meekness considering thyself lest thy also be tempted. King James Version
In conclusion, I believe the right thing to do was to have pulled over the sister at the end of service and find out if she is saved and then find out if she is looking for a church home, etc. In other words, show some type of love. She may be a babe in Christ and just don't know any better. Maybe the church she was attending is ok with drinking coffee durng service. I guess we'll never know. In the meantime, I believe that the person who started the thread to gossip about this should get a kneeling prayer pillow and spend some time in prayer on how to handle this type of situation if it happens again.

Go Ahead And Pursue - God's Got Your Back
During this time of lack and economic downfall, many christians are falling prey to giving in and listening to what the enemy is telling them about their financial situation. Churches all over are suffering because of the decrease of tithes and offerings. This is not the time to drawback but to push forward.
Push forward with what you may say. Push forward by spending time in prayer with the Lord. He will help you to know what your purpose is during this time of famine so that you can operate in increase and not lack, be the lender and not the borrower, possess the land and not become homeless. Prayer is so powerful. When you spend time with God, he will give you revelation. Once he gives you revelation, you will have to step out in faith and believe that God's word is true.
I was able to minister today and challenge everyone in the service to spend time in prayer to first of all repent for not being a good steward over everything God has placed in their possession and then to ask God to show them their gift and what it is they are to be doing in the kingdom with that gift.
Here is a scripture to meditate on during your time of prayer:
Acts 26:18
To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. King James Version
To open their eyes to their true conditions so that they may repent and live in the light of God instead of in Satan's darkness so that they may receive forgiveness for their sins and God's inheritance along with all people everywhere who's sins are cleansed away who are set apart by faith in me. The Living Bible
In conclusion, as you utilize your kneeling prayer pillow, let God minister to you in the area of your gifting so that you can be a blessing to the kingdom during this drought. Remember that Issac sowed in the famine and received a harvest one hundredfold in the same year.

Can You Be Forgiven If You Keep Commiting The Same Sin?
I was watching TBN today and David G. Evans was on the Benny Hinn show talking about grace and forgiveness of sins. He made reference to several scriptures pertaining to grace. He also said that grace is not a license to sin. Benny Hinn asked was there ever a point when grace would not work anymore. David G. Evans let him know that God is long suffering but does not suffer to eternity with sin.
There is going to come a day when sin is not going to be as enjoyable as it once was. The Bible says that sin is pleasureable for a season. Let's not keep repeating that season. As you take time to read God's word and pray on your kneeling prayer pillow, you will get closer to God. As you get closer to God, your flesh will have to take a back seat to the Holy Spirit.
Here is a scripture to meditate on as you reflect and repent of your sins.
Psalms 86:5 – For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. King James Version

Can You Forgive Yourself While Doing Body Gospel
I was watching television and saw an infomercial for Body Gospel by Donna Richardson Joyner and begin to think about how this workout plan is blessing saints in the area of health. I know this month I am supposed to be writing on forgiveness of sins and you are probably thinking what does working out has to do with forgiveness of sins.
Well, the Bible says that our bodies are the temple of God. Like it or not, some of us have not done things in moderation which led so many saints down the wrong road - the road of sin. The Bible says that if you know to do good and don't then that is sin. Overeating is a sin. It causes our bodies to not be energized and not function the way it is supposed to. It also causes us to spend more money on eating than we should.
Just like it isn't too late to decide to exercise and eat right, it is never too late to repent and ask God for forgiveness of sins. Here is a verse on forgiveness of sins to start with:
I John 1:9
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. King James Version
In conclusion, I believe that as you make up your mind to start eating right and exercise by using Body Gospel, God will begin to rebuild your temple for his glory. Don't forget to utilize your kneeling prayer pillow as you pray to God for forgiveness of sins.
