From Genesis to the prophets, from the cross to the empty tomb, Scripture reveals one undeniable truth Jesus Christ is LORD over ALL! “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:10–11 (KJV) There is one Gospel, and at the center of that Gospel is Jesus Christ. Jesus is not merely a good tea

I am coming out of 1 Kings 19 where Prophet Elijah just killed all the false prophets and Ahab went home and snitched on him to Jezebel and she threatened to kill him so he ran into the wilderness and fell asleep under a tree. 1 Kings 19: 5-8 (NLT) 5 Then he lay down and slept under the broom tree. But as he was sleeping, an angel touched him and told him, “Get up and eat! ” 6 He looked around and there beside his head was some bread baked on hot stones and a jar of water! So

🤗Welcome back family! If you haven’t read Part I, we highly recommend you go back and read it. Jumping right into it!! 📝Jesus Was Promised From the Beginning As we discussed in Part I, the Gospel did not suddenly appear in Matthew. God had already revealed His plan throughout Scripture. After the fall of mankind, God told the serpent: “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed…” Genesis 3:15 (KJV) This is often understood as the fir

Why does it matter what people think of you? The world has us so blind and insecure about ourselves that we minimize who we serve and who we belong to. The only reason why it matters what people say or think about you is because you are still in question about what they see when they look at you. But if you’re living according to His Word, if you are allowing Him to continue to order your steps and guide your tongue, if you’re walking in obedience, aligned with His will and H

Scripture to study: 1 Thessalonians 5:16–24 (KJV) Philippians 4:6 (KJV) Isaiah 6:1–7 Family, we have to resist the need to always be in control, control over situations, outcomes, people, and even the timing of God. Your way does not work. Our way does not work, family. Only Yahweh’s way is the right way. Jesus must be Lord over our lives, with the Holy Spirit leading, guiding, comforting, correcting, and teaching us. But here’s the thing: we have to allow Him to. A Reality C

One thing I have noticed is that we live in a time where many people reject discipline altogether. Some say, “I’m not putting my hands on my children,” and while no parent should abuse or mistreat their children, discipline does not always mean physical punishment. Discipline can look like consequences, time-outs, removing privileges, limiting screen time, extra responsibilities, or simply enforcing boundaries that teach children right from wrong. Children need discipline. Th

Holding Too Tight to What God Gave You (This blog was encouraged by my daughter Zailah) “The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.” — Job 1:21 Fear has a way of disguising itself as wisdom. Sometimes we are not trusting God, we are trying to become God. We hold tightly to the blessings He has given us, terrified of losing them. We try to protect relationships, money, positions, ministries, marriages, children, and possessions with our own st

Discipline Counts Here Too We talk a lot about prayer, worship, Bible study, and obedience, and it’s not a bad thing at all. But there is one area many of us avoid talking about and that’s discipline when it comes to our bodies. Truth be told, many of us lack discipline when and where it count most. We will pray for healing while neglecting our health, and honestly Saints, that’s a shame.. I feel convicted. We will fast for a breakthrough but struggle to say no to a second or

📖 In Matthew 4:1–11, we are given a powerful example of spiritual warfare. Grab your bibles, a journal, and a pen! After fasting for forty days and forty nights, Jesus was hungry, physically weak, and yet spiritually prepared. Before beginning His earthly ministry, He was led into the wilderness to be tempted by satan. This moment wasn’t an accident, it was intentional. God ordained. Jesus was teaching us how to stand firm when temptation comes. Notice that Jesus did not arg

One of the greatest responsibilities God gives parents is not simply to raise good children, successful children, or even happy children, but children who know Him. Our sons and daughters are gifts from the Lord, but they do not ultimately belong to us. They belong to God, and our assignment is to steward them well and point them back to the One who created them. Scripture reminds us: “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from Him.”— Psalm 127:3 In a worl

Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT) 6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Ask yourself… What does my storm look like right now? What are my stressors? Think about the afflictions that has happened—or are currently happening—that have caused you to quest

📖Key Scriptures: “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.” — Psalm 37:7 “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” — Isaiah 40:31 “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” — Psalm 27:14 Waiting Is One of the Hardest Lessons of Fa

Key Scriptures: John 10:10 Matthew 7:16-20 Psalm 34:18 Hebrews 10:25 Ezekiel 34:2-6 Romans 8:38-39 Isaiah 55:6 Church hurt is real. Many people have been judged, rejected, ignored, manipulated, or mistreated by people inside a church. Some were wounded by leaders. Some were wounded by members. Some were wounded by their Christian family members (you know the, "holier than thou", family members). Some were made to feel unwelcome when they were at their lowest point and needed

“ Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us…” Galatians 3:13 NKJV “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, And the wealth of the sinner is stored up for [the hands of] the righteous.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13‬:‭22‬ ‭AMP‬‬{ It ran in my family until it ran into me! The enemy has never been satisfied with destroying just one life. His strategy has always been bigger than you. He desires to destroy families, corrupt bloodlines, and

📖 Main Scripture: Then she named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel!” because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband. I Samuel 4:21 NKJV (We want to encourage you to read the books of Samuel for yourself for more understanding of what had happened and how it's still relevant today.) There is no better feeling than receiving confirmation from the Holy Spirit. There are moments when you walk into a room, a

Have you ever noticed how often people say things like, “I’m sending you good vibes,” “I’m sending positive energy,” or “I’m manifesting good things for you”? These phrases have become so common that many people never stop to ask where these ideas come from or whether they align with God’s Word. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to examine every belief and practice through the lens of Scripture, not culture. The Bible never teaches believers to send “good vibes,” positive e

Scripture Anchor: Galatians 6:1 NLT “Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path…” The phrase “mind your business” has become common in today’s world, but in the Body of Christ, we need to ask: is that really biblical? Now let’s be clear. This is not about being messy, prideful, judgmental, or walking around trying to expose people. The Bible tells us to examine ou

Mama Shelia❤️ There was a conversation my mother in law shared with me that truly shook my heart. She told me about her first husband. After they got married, he moved her to Tampa, and only seven months later, he passed away. In her grief, she cried out to the Lord asking, “Why would You allow this to happen?” And she said the Lord responded: “Because I had to move what you placed before Me. You said you loved Me, but you loved him more.” When she shared that with me, she sa

Bound by the Burden of Unforgiveness. I need you to know that you are not your mistakes. You are so much more than any mistake you have ever made. We have to remember that only God is perfect. And while we are not perfect, we are made in His image, and He is the One who perfects what concerns us. Romans 12:2 reminds us not to conform to the ways of the world, but to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. We oftentimes stop there, but I dare you to read the verse in its e

In honor of Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, I reached out to several men of God and asked them a simple but powerful question: “What does brotherhood in Christ mean to you?” Their responses are heartfelt reminders that biblical brotherhood is more than friendship, it is encouragement, accountability, love, prayer, and standing together as we follow Jesus. Alongside their testimonies, I want to offer a word of encouragement to every man reading this. Brothers, stay rooted
