Blessed with persecution.

Many of you are looking at the title wondering “how is persecution a blessing?” Let me help you see. Jesus was persecuted here on earth, but yet he is still the son of the most high God. He is still an almighty God. He died for you and I so that our sins will be forgiven.

When we accept Christ, we become his children. He gives us the Holy Spirit, which dwells inside of us. As children of God we are often persecuted here on earth. When the enemy attacks you take it as a moment to build your character and strength. Persecution should be igniting the fire inside of you to rely on God and his ability to shift your situation. 

 “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”‭‭ Romans‬ ‭5:1-5‬

God will give you peace through the persecution. Persecution with faith in God will unlock your anointing. God will give the anointing you need to surpass the trial your facing. Shift your mind from what’s been said and done to you and pray that God will help you to prevail.

Be Blessed!

Blockage in Your Tunnel!

Image
  Imagine driving on a beautiful afternoon. As your driving, you approach a tunnel. Your car enters the tunnel and suddenly things do not appear to be so brighter. As you continue to drive you can see that there is light at the end of the tunnel.   Many of our lives are like this. Everything appears to be perfect and then suddenly something dims our lights.    For some of us, there may be a huge truck driving in front of us, which is blocking the light at the end of the tunnel. We all have trucks in our lives that we need to move past to see the light. Some have big trucks and some may have small trucks.  What happens when you can get around the truck? The key is to keep driving. You cannot stop or else you’ll be the cause of traffic.  That’s how God feels about our lives. The enemy may try to cause blockage in our tunnels, but we have to keep going even if we can’t move around it. The cars behind us are the souls that God has assigned to us. When you quit ...

Blessing in Friendships.

Image
We all know by now that friendships don’t always last forever. Some friendships are just for a season. In that season God uses that person(s) to bring something out of you. I’m in a space in life where my circle of friends has changed. Although God has replaced the friends I have lost; I am truly grateful for each friendship. In this season God has given me friends that have become my sisters through Christ. Each one of them has played a part in my spiritual development; rather it is to hold me accountable for my thoughts and actions or to push me to new heights in my walk with Christ. God has given me sisters who won’t let me go back to partying and drinking alcohol. He has given me sisters to remind me of the spiritual gifts he has implanted in me. I shared this to say it is okay to lose friends because God will replace them with who you need in life. Although it may hurt or feel like a loss, it is actually a blessing. Each friendship helps build your character and integrity. T...

The Blessing in a Breakthrough!

Image
I have been going back and forth about doing this post. It has been tough to write about what I am currently dealing with. I am waiting for my “breakthrough”. Week after week the enemy has been attacking me. Now, most will say “when the enemy is working hard to break you, you are about to reach your breakthrough.” This post is not only to encourage you but to encourage me. The enemy has a job and that is to kill, steal, and destroy according to John 10:10.  We have to stand strong and trust in the Lord through these trying times. God will always be there.  “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.”  Isaiah‬ ‭43:2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ We are not to fear the things that satan is throwing at us. Even when it seems like the trials and tribulations are never-ending. God has our backs. He will provide you with the strength and reso...
