We need the joy of The Lord to be our strength to help us overcome for such a time as this.
Awakened to Hear and Speak
The Church is called as a voice to cities and nations, and as a repairer and restorer of the broken and desolate for all to see. God may speak to us in a still, small voice, but then call us to declare boldly what His Word decrees. Do you believe God is calling for an awakening of His roaring lion - The Church - in worship, and speaking the Truth in love, boldness and humility? This is a time to awaken, arise and speak what the Holy Spirit says to release.
Joy is our Inheritance!
Joy doesn’t just fall on us. It is like a seed planted within us. The seed of joy must be watered and cultivated in order for this fountain of joy to overflow.
ENLIGHTENED by TRUTH
Grace is not an excuse to sin or to keep living in sin; grace gives us the power to overcome our selfish human nature and empowers us with a love and desire to honor God and love and help others.
In loving memory of my beloved brother, Donnie, and prayers of peace and healing over all others who know the grievous pain of injustice …
We all bleed crimson and the crimson stained cross is what we need to unite us for such a time as this.
Restored to Release
I have been restored to release Your LOVE, JOY and PEACE in a spirit of boldness and humility. I will arise and shine in the midst of this dark culture all around me.

September 11th – A Historic Day to Remember and Honor True Heroes
This historic day we should never forget, nor should the heroic actions of all these men and women ever be cancelled out. Who are these mostly unknown heroes we need to remember? They include, but are not limited to, the Firefighters, First Responders, Police Officers, and evening the extraordinary fellow citizens who love people enough to risk and endanger their own lives to save others. These heroic ones never start fires that destroy and dessimate citizens and cities, but instead they are the extinguishers of the furious flames of devastation. You will never see these true heroes rioting, but instead these are the brave ones who risk their own lives by running into burning buildings to save others whom they do not even know. In times of crisis, true heroes always arise. They are not born then, however, they have been heroes all along by just quietly serving behind the scenes.
Our pain and suffering is never wasted as we pursue God’s healing and His purpose. It is used instead as fuel for a deeper closeness to God and as preparation for a higher calling to be a blessing and an inspiration to others. Twelve years ago on Friday evening of July 27th, 2007, I ruptured... Continue Reading →
