I Will Say!

Scripture supports that we should speak life out of our mouths, but so many times we find ourselves doing just the opposite.

Shelter – Something that covers or provide protection

If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways Psalm 91:9-11

At the opening verse of Psalm 91, the writer states, whoever dwells in the shelter/dwelling of the Most High will rest in His shadow. But all we have to do is SAY the Lord is MY refuge and we can partake of His protection. Envision your shadow and the space it takes up. Now envision the shadow of the One who is everywhere at the same time. In other words, wherever you go, you’re protected if you would only say and believe you have what you say. If God be for you, who can be against you!!!

As for me and my house, we will say the Lord is my refuge (at all times)!

God’s Handiwork in You

Ever question why you look the way you do or how you do things differently from others? Have you ever wanted to be like someone other than yourself?

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10

Each of us is God’s handiwork! He fashioned us to His liking and in His likeness. Two things are at work here. First, if we are unwelcoming to the texture of our hair, the complexion of our skin, the positioning of our eyes or the height in which we’ve grown, we are saying God made a mistake and doesn’t know what HE likes. Secondly, if we are busy trying to be like someone else we are missing out on the impact and footprints God has called us to make in our family, community and the world!

There will never be another you and guess what, God made it that way! How wise is our God? There is no other wiser than He, for our thoughts and ways are not His.

 Embrace what God has created in you and bask in the truth that you are His handiwork!

God Is For You!

There have been times in my life where I felt out numbered, under qualified and out witted. But God…

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31

Who is my all in all reminded me of the scripture above. When you meditate on this verse and realize there’s no one more powerful than He, there’s no thing that can not de-throne Him nor is there anyone above Him, you can’t help but feel secure in being His child. If God is for you, this means He will go to the ends of the earth to protect, defend and keep you. If God is for you, whoever is against you are against Him and He’s not having that and will vindicate you!

Rest in knowing that the most powerful being is on your side! With this fact, there is no room for fear, defeat or retreating! God is for you!

Set It Up

Every child of God has been given the gift of creative ability, simply because we were made in His image and in their likeness.

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence. Proverbs 10:11

In the beginning, every time God spoke, He created. We too have that same creative ability to speak and setup our destiny. The bible teaches us that we have what we say (if we believe), when we say it. This statement applies to both positive as well as negative comments. If you speak negatively, then that is exactly what you will have. The question of the day is, “what are you saying?” Are you being moved by what you see or are you speaking what you know to be true according to God’s plan for your life?

Open your mouth and set up your path to righteous living and to living the abundant life God promised you.
