Guard Your Energy

God gives each of us the necessary energy to perform his daily will through our lives. The enemy comes to deplete you of that energy. The enemy sends distractions, gossipers, and many other forces to deflate and discourage you. You cannot afford to allow circumstances or characters to rob you of your energy. Guard your energy. You need it to perform His will. Remember the woman who touched Jesus' clothes? Just as Jesus knew when people were pulling energy from Him, so should you. People who give you headaches, stomach aches or heart aches are negative enery drainers. Learn to guard your energy from them.

May I Help You?

This is a common question that we hear when we enter retail establishments. Workers are trained to automatically ask this question when a customer enters the store. As Christians, this should also be our standard question. We should approach each day trying to determine how we can help others. 1 John 3:17 (NIV) asks, "if anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?" Just saying.

Freedom in Forgiveness

When you fail to forgive those who have wronged you, you allow them to continue to affect you.  Proverbs 17:9 (AMP) says "He who covers and forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats or harps on a matter separates even close friends."  Free yourself by forgiving them for hurting, divorcing, walking out on, lying to, cheating on, talking about,  not being there for, stealing from, not supporting, taking advantage of, or in any other way of wronging you. Forgiveness unshackles you from your past so you can embrace your future.

No Limits

He who tells you what you cannot do is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Philippians 4:13 tells you that you can do all things through Him who strengthens you. Take the limits off - be all that God intended for you to be.

Focus On Your Future

Why spend on the past what can be invested in your future? Philippians 3:13 instructs us to forget what is behind and reach for what lies ahead. Don't fret about your past. Focus on your future.

The Season of Blessings

I pronounce on your life that you are entering a new season - The Season of Blessings. Many of you have struggled during this economic recession with jobs, finances and other issues. I see the clouds lifting, and the sun beginning to shine on your life. Now is the time to align your personal and spiritual affairs to walk in the blessings that God has for you. Isaiah 60:1 says "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you." You will reap, because you did not faint. Enjoy your season of blessing.
