Leaving Everything to Join Follow Jesus… (Luke 14:25-35)

Let Jesus’s voice be the loudest and most influential voice in your spiritual, emotional, physical, mental life during season and beyond. Disciples are called to follow Jesus, not news networks, politicians, religions, or influencers, as their guides (John 17:23).

“Now great crowds were traveling with him. So he turned and said to them, ‘If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, and even his own life—he cannot be my disciple.
Whoever does not bear His own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.’” (Luke 14:25-27)

Do what you can to live at peace with your fellow believers, and join your Lord in praying for the unity of God's people, so "that the world may believe" (John 17:21).

Which brings me back to a verse I keep reminding myself of. “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:2).

THE VALUE OF GOD’s WORD

Do you know the story of how diamonds were discovered in South Africa?

One day… a man passed by a young boy playing marbles (with small stones) in the dirt. The man noticed that the little stones were shiny and sparkled in the sunlight.
So the man walked closer to observe the small rocks. He stooped down, picked up one of the stones… and realized it was a DIAMOND!

👉 The small boy had NO UNDERSTANDING of the VALUE in the STONES he was playing with!

💥 This is a Great Illustration of how People Today 👉 have NO CLUE of the TREASURE that is Printed in GOD’s WORD!

Within its pages….
* WE DISCOVER GOD
* the Way of Salvation
* Purpose for living
* Guidance and Instructions for each day
* Spiritual Wisdom
* Comfort
* Encouragement
* Strength
* Healing for our weary souls

In (Psalms 19:10)…it says
💥 GOD’s WORD is to be DESIRED MORE
THAN GOLD.

HIS WORD IS ALIVE AND POWERFUL!
IT TRANSFORMS the HEARTS and MINDS of ALL who APPLY it to their Lives!

DON’T PASS IT BY!
DON’T ALLOW IT to COLLECT DUST on its shelf!

💥 The BIBLE HOLDS IMMENSE VALUE for the BELIEVER! OPEN IT, READ IT, and APPLY IT!

My Humble Prayer… (Psalm 143:1-12)

Dear Adonai, Abba, God, our Father,

A prayer for power and understanding, along with spiritual growth… (Ephesians 3:14-21)

Before fear dictates the possible flaws…
Before the emotion guides my words…
Before anyone else decides for me…

Encouragement was to pause and pray prior to proceeding.

Jesus, you get the first word.

“Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.”(Psalm 143:8)

I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done.
I will be filled with joy because of you. I will sing praises to your name, O Most High. (Psalm 9:1-2)

For those lost, confused, and seeking the truth, perhaps without realizing it, God's intention to reach out.

Embrace joy as you yearn for these spiritual times, talents, and treasures.

Abide in Christ: Staying Connected to the Source of Life

In John 15, Jesus reveals a powerful truth: The Christian life is not about striving — it’s about staying connected.

He said,
“I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing.” (John 15:5)

When you abide in Christ, your life flows from His strength, not your effort.
You stop trying to “be better” and start living in His peace, His joy, and His power.

What It Means to Abide
To abide means to remain — to dwell — to stay close.
It’s not a moment; it’s a lifestyle of continual connection with Jesus through:

- His Word — letting Scripture shape your thoughts
- Prayer — keeping your heart in conversation with Him
- Obedience — walking in His will daily
- Love — reflecting His heart toward others

Abiding is not about perfection; it’s about presence.

Why Staying Connected Changes Everything When you remain in Christ:

- Your peace becomes steady, not fragile
- Your joy becomes lasting, not fleeting
- Your life begins to bear fruit that matters — love, patience, kindness, faithfulness

“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace…” (Galatians 5:22–23)

How to Stop Striving and Start Living
You don’t have to earn God’s favor — you already have it in Christ.
Abiding means resting in His finished work and letting His Spirit produce what your flesh never could.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”(Psalm 119:105)

When you stay connected to Jesus, your life becomes fruitful, peaceful, and purposeful — not because of what you do, but because of who you’re connected to.

Jesus didn’t say, “Try harder.”
He said, “Abide in Me.”

The branch doesn’t strive to bear fruit — it simply stays attached to the Vine. And when you remain in Him, His life flows through you.

RELEASING THE POWER OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS

A Prayer of Faith, Consecration, Victory & Covenant

THE BLOOD SPEAKS A BETTER WORD OVER MY FUTURE
I declare that my future is not governed by fear, failure, rejection, or the mistakes of yesterday. I belong to Jesus. My life is under His lordship, my steps are ordered by His wisdom, and my purpose is surrendered to His will. (Psalm 37:23; Proverbs 3:5–6)

FINAL DECLARATION

I am redeemed by the blood of Jesus.
I am forgiven by the blood of Jesus.
I am cleansed by the blood of Jesus.
I have access to God through the blood of Jesus.
I overcome through the blood of the Lamb.
I refuse condemnation.
I refuse bo***ge.
I refuse fear.
I refuse to return to what Christ delivered me from.
My life belongs to Jesus.
My heart belongs to Jesus.
My future belongs to Jesus.
And the finished work of Christ is my foundation.

“In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.”(Ephesians 1:7)

Lord Jesus, let the revelation of Your sacrifice produce deeper holiness, stronger faith, genuine repentance, greater love, and unwavering obedience in me. May I never merely speak about the blood—I pray that I will live as one who has truly been redeemed by it.

Amen.

The First Disciple… (Luke 5:1-39)

Beloved... Stand in agreement with me in prayers for divine direction and re-positioning... Amen!

When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon [Peter], “Put out into the deep water and lower your nets for a catch [of fish].” Simon replied, “Master, we worked hard all night [to the point of exhaustion] and caught nothing [in our nets], but at Your word, I will [do as you say and] lower the nets [again].” When they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their nets were [at the point of] breaking... (Luke 5:4-6)

Adonai, Abba, God, our Father, I know that You are calling me out into the deep... deeper faith, deeper trust, deeper hope, deeper assurance and deeper confidence in You.
O Lord, God Almighty show me how to lower my nets, where to cast my nets... I have been fishing for a long time to the point of exhaustion, desperation, frustration and disappointment, and caught nothing. But at the Word of God, I declare an immediate turnaround for me to an abundant harvest and a great catch, in Jesus’s name.
O Lord, speak to the winds and the waves, and silent this storm. O Lord, breathe a new breath of life into this valley of very dried bones.
O Lord, send forth an abundance of rain into this season of drought, barrenness, unfruitfulness, and crop failure in my life.
O Lord, answer me by Fire, for the God who answers by Fire, He is God. Let your Fire consumes every diabolical plot, demise, curse and pit set for me by my enemies, destiny devourers, and evil workers, in Jesus name.
O Lord, silent the noise and remove the distractions so that I can hear Your still quiet voice... Lord, place me at the right place at the right time... Divinely position me in front of the door that you have already opened for me that no man can shut.
Lord, let me not even go ahead in my name, but in the title of The Great I Am, Who favors me, guides me, counsels me, sends me, redeems me, equips me and promotes me.

Lord, take me by the hand and lead me along the paths that You have already prepared for me. O Lord give me the treasures of darkness and hidden wealth of secret places, so that I may know that it is You, The LORD, the God of Israel, who calls me by my name.

Lord, in Your blessings, bless me, in Your goodness, be good to me, and in Your multiplication, multiply and increase my children and me, in Jesus name. Amen!
Beloved... Stand in agreement with me in prayers for divine direction and re-positioning... Amen!

The Holy Spirit: The Spirit of Supplication… (Philippians 4:1-7)

And I will pour on the house of David�and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem�the Spirit of grace and supplication;�then they will look on Me whom they pierced. (Zechariah 12:10)

Holy Spirit, I know that You make intercession for believers and that You’ll give people the Spirit of Supplication. Make my prayers effective.
Come teach me to pray, and then pray through me.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Supplication. He receives your prayers and presents them to the Father. Many Christians feel as if they don’t know how to pray as they ought or as if they don’t properly phrase their prayers.
But the Holy Spirit helps them pray, because “the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groaning which cannot be uttered” (Romans 8:26).
He makes intercession for you too, and the Father hears Him because He prays “according to the will of God” (Romans 8:27).
So pour out your heart to the Father; the Holy Spirit will be right beside you as the Spirit of Supplication.

In the future, the Holy Spirit will cause the worldwide to see Jesus as the Messiah they’ve rejected, so today He can help you see Jesus working in your life.

The Holy Spirit can also give you a greater desire for prayer and actually help you pray.
He can give you prayer requests and teach you the proper attitude of prayer.
He can help you pray in Jesus’ name (John 14:13-14).

The Spirit of Supplication can make your prayers effective. Claim His help today.

Today, the Beauty of Baptism took place at Sewell Park, San Marcos River, in Texas.
Stone decided to seek out the blood of Jesus in his life and is prepared to announce to the world that he submits and follows Him.

Jesus’ baptism, He headed into the wilderness as if He was Israel personified.

Of course Jesus didn’t need to be baptized. He was clean. He was God. He was beautiful. But instead of standing back and pointing fingers, He jumps right in and identifies with His people. He steps into the waters as a way of saying, I’m for you, and with you.

And something crazy happens. He hears His Father’s voice thunder down from Heaven, declaring,

You are My beloved Son; with You I am well pleased.

The Father speaks Jesus’ identity through Him.
Remember, this was the beginning of Jesus’ ministry. He had not done anything yet. No healings. No preaching. No Cross. No resurrection. This voice came first.

So back to Matthew’s version of Jesus’ baptism. God says Jesus is a Son, a child. He is the Beloved. The word beloved implies a special affection or place in God’s heart for Jesus. But the beautiful thing is when we trust in Jesus, we are wrapped up Him. So when we are baptized, we are stepping into the future. The future of belovedness that is true right now.

You are God’s beloved. And God doesn’t sprinkle His love; He drenches us in it.
My child, My child, My child. I am well pleased.

Do Not Neglect Salvation… (Hebrews 2:1-18)

Satan cannot steal your salvation—‎but he will fight to steal your peace, your focus, and your fire.
‎
He doesn’t always attack with obvious evil.
‎Sometimes he comes quietly… through thoughts, feelings, and distractions.
‎
1) LIES
‎He twists truth until you doubt God’s Word.
‎“He is a liar and the father of lies.” (John 8:44)
‎
2) TEMPTATION
‎He offers sin like it’s harmless—but it always costs more than it promises.
‎(James 1:14–15)
‎
3) ACCUSATION
‎He reminds you of your past to make you feel unworthy of grace.
‎“The accuser of our brothers… has been thrown down.” (Revelation 12:10)
‎
4) FEAR
‎He tries to paralyze your faith with anxiety and doubt.
‎“God has not given us a spirit of fear…” (2 Timothy 1:7)
‎
5) DIVISION
‎He destroys unity through offense, pride, and gossip.
‎“Where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder.” (James 3:16)
‎
6) DISCOURAGEMENT
‎He makes you feel like giving up is easier than obeying.
‎“Your adversary the devil prowls… Resist him, firm in your faith.” (1 Peter 5:8–9)
‎
7) BO***GE
‎He turns repeated sin into chains.
‎“You are slaves of the one you obey.” (Romans 6:16)
‎
8)DISTRACTION
‎He keeps your mind so busy that you slowly drift from God.
‎“The god of this world has blinded the minds…” (2 Corinthians 4:4)
‎
BUT GOD DIDN’T LEAVE YOU DEFENSELESS.
‎
‎Stand your ground.
‎Fight with truth.
‎Pray without ceasing.
‎And remember: the devil is loud—
‎but Jesus is Lord.
‎
“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand…” ‎(Ephesians 6:10-20)

The Fruit for the Prayer Warrior obedient and faithful. (Mark 11:12-26)

Whether it's whoever, wherever, or whatever giant you face, this battle isn't yours to fight alone. Victory belongs to the Lord. Receive it.

Hope keeps you joyful. Patience keeps you steady. Prayer keeps you connected. Whatever you're facing, don't let go of any of the three.

Psalm 28
Romans 12:12

Boldness does not mean a lack of fear.
It’s saying yes in the face of fear. Whatever path you're on— God has a purpose, and He's making use of it. (Acts 4:23-31)

Philippians 1:6 “I am fully convinced that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Paul reminds the Philippians that the Christian life is God’s work from start to finish. Spiritual growth is not an event, but a process that God Himself is committed to completing. There are days when you feel you are making little progress. You still struggle with the same weaknesses and wonder if you are truly changing. Do not judge God’s work by a single day or even a single phase. The One who began the work in you has not abandoned it. He continues to mold you, even when changes seem slower than you expected.
