Speak up for your Life!

I bless the Lord because he speaks to me all the time now.  He woke me up with this one today.  He let me know that to speak things into my life is critical to the pulling in of my future.  God has many opportunities for us, but sometimes they are waiting on us to speak the words.  If we are in the will of God and our hearts are right then when we speak God will move on our behalf and all of creation will have to comply. God has shared with me that to speak as though things were is to speak to our futures.  It is to recognize that the will of God for our lives is going to happen and that his promises are true.  When people ask me when I will finish school or when I am getting married I will say soon, and I will believe it because as soon as God says so it will happen.  How do I know that these things will happen?  I know that God loves me and he promised me that if I seek him and his will for my life then he would take care of my wants and needs. 

I have a tendency to get really quiet when I am concerned or feel an impending doom on a situation.  Through both painful and humbling life situations I am learning that silence is not always golden.  If we can't find any life to speak into a situation than we should be quiet, but if God has promised us something then it is up to us to remind ourselves of what God said and speak those things out of our hearts and our mouths.  Because we were made in the likeness of God our words can speak life to situations if our spirit is right.  The trick is to be connected to the source which is God.  If we have an abiding relationship with God then when we speak life happens.  

Of course nothing can beat the word of God.  If you can not bring yourself to speak into your situation allow God's word to speak into it for you.  Read the scriptures and speak the applicable verses.  Pray for God to send you a word to speak over your situation.  God is good like that.  He wants us to succeed.  God wants us to experience the victory that he has already secured for us in Jesus Christ his son.  Today I ask every member or the body of Christ, every Christian, every child of God and joint heir with Christ to speak up for your life.  Your words spoken at the right time and with the right attitude and understanding can change your world.  May the Lord find pleasure in my words. Amen.

5 things that could keep you from getting so angry

So I find that there are certain things that when done make for a much better day than when I don't do them.  As a single mom sometimes it gets hard to do these and then everything seems to be a bigger ordeal for me. Lord help me to do better with that.  I would tell you don't judge me, but I know you are going to do it anyway so I will say please be gracious toward me.  1.  Start the snowball of positive thinking : For me this means prayers of thanks, reading my Bible, listening to positive music, writing a letter to God or to myself, even watching some Veggie Tales (what do you know about those Veggies?)  with my son sometimes.   The reality is there is enough negative that comes at me; why would I invite anything other than a flood of positive truth into my mind and my life? This is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it...or else!!!  haha just kidding (sort of) 2.  Wash up!: Remember when I said be gracious?...

Mr. Sandman Where are you?

I was told that by 6 months old or so my son should be effectively sleeping through the night. Well, Tomorrow is his first birthday and he has already woken up twice...make that three times because he woke up while I was writing this! I really miss sleeping and I want my little one to get sleep too. He wakes up every two or three hours to nurse. I try to get him to go back to sleep, but a baby who is standing up and pulling on the side of his crib isn't going back to sleep easily. I sing, swing, shush , and attempt to swaddle, but he won't have any of it. Sometimes I let him cry his way back to sleep, but it only last for about a half hour before he reawakens more determined than before. The screaming wears on my nerves and the lack of sleep is wearing on my days. Some days I think "This is it. This is my life now. I will never feel rested again, and I will never be fully alert again." I expected to lose sleep when I found out I was pregnant. I expected to be tired, b...

I have a dream

I used to dream all the time that I was witnessing to people.  People would ask me questions and I would begin to speak about the goodness of the Lord, and how Jesus was the solution to all of their problems or desires.  I feel anointed to be having those dreams again.  Maybe someone needs these words.  I talk about my journey of faith, but maybe you haven't begun that journey yet so let me tell you about Jesus.  Jesus is the Christ, the savior of the world, the messiah, the only begotten son of God.  Jesus is God in humanity. He came down to earth, lived a human life, did miraculous things to show people who he was and how much he loved them.  Jesus felt every human emotion that any of us have ever felt. Jesus taught us how to live as people of God.  Then he died so that we wouldn't have to be separated from him anymore.   You see sin separates us from God because he is holy.  We all have sinned therefore we all should be separated fro...
