"It's Time!!"

When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons....

Mark 16:9‭-‬10 NIV

And in John 4: Jesus is talking to a Samaritian woman at the well. She has had 5 husbands prior and the one she is currently living with now is not her husband. Still, Jesus is talking to her. After which, she would be the one to go and spread the news about Him to ALL who would listen.

Now if God could use Mary Magdalene who had 7 demons in her and a woman who was a  Samaritan and had a reputation of being with a lot of men...What makes you think He can't use you?

God is well aware of your issues, what he has had to deliver you from...Nothing in your past or your present scares Him.

Your reputation- the things that people are still saying about you doesn't matter to Him.

Who are they to judge someone else's servant? You are God's servant. To Him, you stand or fall according to Rom 14:4 NIV

So, Don't be intimidated any longer sis....Do what God has called you to do and don't worry about being perfect, just strive to be obedient.

Whether you can relate to Mary Magdalene or to The Samaritan woman it doesn't matter. 

It's not where you came from or what you came up out of that matters, but where you're going and the lives you will impact because of it.

Job 8:7 NCV

So, Let's Go!!

Until Next Sunday.

"I'm NOT Cold!!"

8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.” While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

Genesis 4:8‭-‬9 NIV

Cain said what he said because he didn't want to have any responsibility towards his brother, and he was trying to be sarcastic too...But the truth is, we are our brother's keeper (sister's too).

God does not want us walking on this earth, COLD HEARTED, (though the love of many has waxed cold- Matt 24:12 KJV).

God does not want us walking around on this earth NOT caring about each other, looking the other way and ignoring the fact that our sister or brother could possibly be in trouble. 

We should care, because what if it was us, or a family member, or close friend?

Caring about one another is powerful. When we really care, caring can get some amazing things done for that other person who may or may not be in a position to help themselves at that moment.

In Rom 5:6 NCV The bible says, God sent Jesus to help us when we were unable to help ourselves....

Notice what it DIDN'T say: It DIDN'T say...He waited to check out our story, to see if we were lying or being truthful....BUT HE SENT JESUS, KNOWING that no matter what is determined later, we needed help that was BEYOND OUR OWN ABILITY in that moment.

Because when the devil is really attacking...Often times, He will go for the person's mind 1st...It's an attack on their mental health 1st, making mental illness- the silent killer of our people.

So, God sent Jesus for us at a time when there was no social media, no Google to search etc...He sent Jesus and called it love, NOT caring...He called it, LOVE.

He didn't ignore what He heard, He didn't critique what He saw, and even though it might have been a set up, a plot...He still sent Jesus in to assist. God was NOT cold when we needed help. 

So, Who are we to ever be COLD towards a possible situation that is occurring before our eyes; regardless of the outcome?

Think About It!!

Until Next Sunday.

"Accept The Rejection"

He came to his own people, and even they rejected him.

John 1:11 NLT

But what if they had pretended to accept Jesus instead of rejecting Him?

And what if Jesus had been  like some of you and ignored the warning signs and proceeded to connect Himself with these people anyway?

Jesus would have been setting  Himself up to be hurt...

There is NOTHING worse than hurting YOURSELF for someone who doesn't even care about you.

They were His own people, but they didn't care about Jesus because if they did, they never would have rejected Him.

But instead of dwelling on the rejection, dwelling on how HE KNEW they felt about HIM...

What did Jesus actually do?

He did what many of you should be doing, but don't have the courage to do which is MOVE ON.

Your future is still ahead of you and it's NOT tied to the people who rejected you, but to those STILL waiting on you.

Jesus realizing He STILL had people (you and me) waiting on Him...MOVED ON!!

He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.

John 1:11‭-‬12 NLT

AFTER being rejected, Jesus moved on and gave the AMAZING opportunity to be the children of God to those who believed him, to those who would chose to accept Him.

So, Stop taking EVERYTHING so personal and move on. Those sent to believe in you, to accept you are still waiting on.

Go!! Move On!! Move Forward!! If NOT for you, do it for them.

Until Next Sunday.

"Where You Belong"

“‘Then I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you, Live!"

Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.

Ezekiel 16:6, 8 NIV 

Beloved,

God saw you at your worst. When everything was still a struggle, when no one thought you were ready for love, needed to be loved, or even could be loved.

God saw you and knew that it was time that you be loved (more than you've ever known), in a way that you had never known.

So, He brought you in, brought you close and made you His Own. So, When you feel like you don't belong and nobody really cares...

YOU BELONG TO GOD!!

And NOT only does He care, but the bible says, He is deeply concerned about you according to Rom 8:28 AMP

You see, Your getting saved, receiving the salvation of the Lord when you did is NO COINCIDENCE.  He meant to draw you close when He did...Not because He needed you, but because you needed Him.

So, With the love and kindness of a Father (Jere 31:3)... He drew you and He is continuing to draw you to this day.

The way you hunger and thirst for MORE of Him and not this fallen world is proof of that.

Psalms 63 NKJV 

 So, Be filled with His righteousness (Matt 5:6 NKJV).... You don't have to chase love or wonder where you belong.

God didn't let you die back when He found you kicking, struggling to exist in the state you were in for a reason...Trust His plan & His purpose for your life.

And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose.

Romans 8:28 AMP

"Keep It Real With God"

What do you think? If a man has a 100 sheep, and 1 of them has gone astray and gets lost, will he not leave the 99 on the mountain and go in search of the 1 that is lost?

Matthew 18:12 AMPC

I think if he is indeed a man of God, He will go in search of the 1 that is lost.

That's what God did in Genesis 3: He was walking in The Garden in the cool of the day; calling out to Adam who had sinned and lost his way.

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”

Gen 3:8‭-‬9 NIV

Beloved, God will call out to you when He senses that you have lost your way, but will you answer or will sin keep you from being in fellowship with God?

It does not matter that He has 99 who are on the mountain, doing good...God needs to MAKE sure you are good, He needs to MAKE things good for you too.

You see, His goal is not the 99, but that none would be lost.

So, If that means He has to leave the 99 in search of you...So Be It!!

2 Pet 3:9 CEV

Expect a visitation and don't be surprised when the question, "Where are you?" comes up in your spirit.

Answer God honestly.

Tell him where you are mentally and emotionally. 

It's time the toxic things you've been believing were expelled from your mind. It's time your emotions were just YOURS and not what's left over from a bad break up, left over from a messy divorce, left over from living with dysfunctional family members etc.

Let God search you in the areas that matters most. Lost is not your location and sin was never meant to be your hidden condition.  

Psalms 139:23-24 NIV

Talk to God...

Because even AFTER Adam had sinned, God still was expecting him to be there in The Garden for their time of fellowship, but he wasn't. He was too afraid, because NOW HE KNEW he was naked which means he was in position to be transparent, to be vulnerable. So he hid. Don't make the same mistake.

Until Next Sunday.
