The power of positive thinking…..the words of Jesus go way beyond the power of positive thinking…. It’s the power of God that makes what seems impossible possible. And we know the promise given to us in scripture is that Nothing is impossible with God! It’s the words of Jesus that is our very foundation.

Now I truly believe that positive thinking helps us to ward off the doubts and the negative thoughts the enemy is throwing at us. Perhaps it’s more of a posture of remaining positive while standing firm on the truth of God’s word. Can we truly remain positive if we are not daily renewing our mind to God’s word?
One of Joyce Meyer’s books “Change your words, change your life” teaches to replace lies with God’s truth by daily powers of confession of God’s words. It sure showed me the difference in focusing on HIS truth and speaking that which is positive and gives us hope! Until we find a relationship with Jesus, life will not really make sense and being positive in our thinking is greatly challenged, but with Jesus comes the priceless gift of wisdom and discernment. As humans we often find ourselves dealing with what seems like impossible situations….but nothing is impossible for Christ! We as flesh have limitations therefore we impose our limitations onto a limitless God. I must change my perspective as I renew my mind to the truth that all things are possible with Christ! Oh how I wish I’d have grasped this truth much earlier in life….but looking back God walked with me through every mess and test always showing me nothing is impossible and he always is working for my good….and he always will. Job is such a beautiful example of nothing is impossible with God!

As we go about our day I pray that every obstacle that presents itself reminds us that nothing is impossible with God. I pray that we remain steadfast in our faith and watch as our limitless God shows that impossible means he’s saying to us “I’m possible”

My heart is overflowing….thank you Lord for loving us so well! 🙏🏼✝️❤️

Welcome 2025, I pray that each of you will experience a wonderful year full of hope, joy, love & God's abundant blessings!

2024 has come with ups and downs, lessons and blessings and as always God has been right there beside me, never leaving me nor forsaking me & continuously loving me unconditionally. {Tribulation will come, be of good cheer for God has overcome the world.John 16:33}
{God gives us an escape route from all temptation. 1 Corn 10:13}

As I grow closer & closer to The Lord I've come to truly understand and receive who I am in Christ. I am a child of the most High God, I am a joint heir with Christ.
When we are in n Christ, we inherit the same authority Jesus had when he walked the earth. We need to
{Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. (Matthew 28:18 NLT)}

Jesus has all power & authority, I am a joint heir with Jesus. I have authority over the kingdom of darkness & my authority is backed by the power of God! { Jesus defeated Satan! I have authority over the enemy.
Jesus transferred his authority to ANYONE who believes in him! { Mark 13:34, Luke 10:19}

I want you to know that It is not your job to defeat Satan, that has already been done. We simply need to stand steadfast in our authority backed by the almighty power of God!

I encourage you as you start this new year, if there is anything in your life that you are hanging into { bitterness, resentment, hurt, adversity, fear} that's not of God, LET IT GO! Please realize that the past is too heavy to be brought into the future! Your future is where you are going, not where you have been!
Let go of anything that is not of The Lord. Set it down, Draw a line in the sand. Step over it, turn around and tell Satan to get behind you! Take your authority in the name of Jesus & command that he can not & will not cross that line! He must bow at the name of Jesus. Set your mind to not receive his lies. Daily renew your mind to who you are in Christ. Know God's amazing promises & truly receive all he has for you!

Remember The Apostle Paul encourages us: {Not that I have now attained [this ideal], or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of (grasp) and make my own, that for which Christ Jesus (the Messiah) has laid hold of me and made me His own. I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward. (Philippians 3:12-14 AMP)}

Press forward for the prize! Don’t stop! God has a wonderful plan for your life, open your heart & truly receive ALL God has for you! I pray for peace, joy, grace, mercy & God's unconditional love & abundant blessings for each of you for the year ahead! Happy & Blessed New Year!

Great reminder…have a blessed Christmas season! ✝️❤️

Jesus deserves the priority place in our lives. He deserves the best room we have available.

When we make Jesus our priority and we seek and choose God first we find HIS
Peace, HIS Blessing, HIS Order AND HIS Approval. Without Jesus and God first we get what this world has to offer. The choice is ours, I choose you Lord!

“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:33‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Here is a beautiful prayer….I didn’t write this but the Holy Spirit prompted me to share….I pray blessings over each of you, in Jesus name, amen!

God, I praise You because Your love never fails and it covers all my transgressions. I adore You because You are good, You are kind, and Your mercies endure forever. I praise You for Your endless grace. I worship You because You are great. There is no one else like You. God, I confess that I am not perfect. You already know my weaknesses, and You still love me. God, please forgive me for letting my shortcomings affect my relationships. Please bring healing and restoration to these areas. Lord, thank You for helping me through all my struggles and for forgiving me when I make the wrong choices. Thank You for choosing to love me instead of holding my mistakes against me. Holy Spirit, thank You for loving me in spite of all the times I've hurt You. God, thank You for setting the ultimate example of love and forgiveness. Lord, help me to be a person who reconciles. Instead of constantly bringing up past offenses and mentioning the wrongs done to me, help me to love people. Please help me to choose to allow love to be greater than the hurt. Give me the courage to choose love as You first loved me. Amen.
