We have entered into a new season, a new year, and hopefully with a renewed mind. The things of the old will not work in this new season. For there is a shift that is taking place, and we must adhere to the Holy Spirit's unctioning. We cannot afford to ignore, overlook, or disregard His voice. We must hearken unto His Holy Word, and embrace His Holy Will. If not, the burden of disobedience will be too great and our reward will be that which we have sown.

Yet, there is hope! Hope and confidence that living for Jesus yields abundance in every aspect of our lives. For every day is a blessing, and every opportunity we are given should prompt us to walk the path He has laid before us.

God has brought us all a mighty long way! He has blessed us despite of our sinful ways. He has kept us even when we disobeyed. Oh! what a Mighty God we serve! And for that we must learn to step aside, to move out of our own way, and Let God have His way in our lives! For anything else will surely be detrimental to our physical, spiritual, and mental health! So, join me as I let go of every dead weight that hindered me in 2025 so that I can soar in 2026!!

Happy New Year! New you! New Year! Same God! Let Him have his way!

We serve a Mighty God! His goodness can't be compared to anyone we know because there is none like Him! He is faithful! His grace is and favor is unmerited and His blessings are unlimited! Even when we feel all alone, He is with us! And when we experience life's billowing waves, He is there to carry us! No matter what we face, God promised that He would be with us even until the end of time!

Society has embraced the worldly norms and tried to replace Biblical truths! What is considered right is now wrong, and what is wrong is now considered right! And those that are standing on the promises of God and making His word their weapon, are now faced with unusual warfare. This warfare is so intense that it seems as if the pressure is too much to overcome. Yet, the reality of it is, the intense warfare is a direct indication that you are on the right path. It is an indication that you are following God's lead! Don't be discouraged because the heat has turned up, just know that it is preparing you for your next level of greatness and it won't break you! The enemy is just mad because you are standing firm on your faith! He wants you to stop proclaiming the goodness of God! He wants you to live any kind of way! He wants you to stop being a beacon of light and lead people astray! But you aren't built like that! You are about Kingdom Business and Kingdom Building! So let him increase the intensity because it won't work: God is still in control!

WE are the "Church" and we have been commissioned to "Be the example" in a world that is suffering from spiritual deprivation, worldly self-gratification, and the overall sinful nature of society. But as believers, we can let our lights shine, we can strive daily to live like Jesus, and we can share our faith with all that will listen. We too have needed his life saving power to turn our life around. So, why not share the good news of what JESUS can do with others! For God wants to see all his children prosper ... so let the "Church" say "Amen"!

Yield not to temptation, but hold fast to God's unchanging hand! Temptation is sent to destroy your peace, rob your joy, and to disrupt your faith. It presents itself as gold but quickly turns into to dust. It appeals to the eye yet steals from your life. Stand on God's word, resist the enemy and he will flee, and pray for strength to ignore the tempting urges. For while it may feel good and look good on the surface, it won't last long and leaves unwarranted pain wherever it is welcomed.

Greed and Envy is a tactic of the enemy to catch us off guard. Although these two tactics are not the only ones, we must know that God has given us the power to keep them at bay. But we must stand on His promises, stay in faith, walk in obedience, and deny ourselves. We will never be perfect, but God can perfect those things that concerns us, that come to kill, steal, and destroy us according to John 10:10. Will you let God lead? Will you trust God's plan? Let God show you the way because the enemy will never defeat the God we serve!

Psalms 103:2 tells us to , "Bless the Lord, oh our soul and forget not his benefits! Let me tell you, it pays to stay in faith! It pays to stay in obedience to God! It pays to do right and not allow your faith to waiver! God is up to something, and it's going to take a "Right Now Faith" to bring it to pass! God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him and His blesses are Ephesians 3:20 type blessings! Don't listen to the world's way of thinking! Tap into your faith jar and stand bold on His promises because His benefits are plentiful, and it PAYS to STAY in FAITH! Won't God do it!!! I know that He has, He can, and He will!

Be Blessed and Definitely Encouraged!
