God comes 1st!



Are you putting your wants and desires before God?

                     

God tells us, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:5 NIV

That right there let's us know, no matter what we want in life, it all come through, and from our heavenly Father! We are nothing without him, and I can tell you, you won't get very far before calling on him for help, and guidance! We also know he is a jealous God, he wants no man or nothing coming before him or taking his place in your life, and in your heart!

So those desires you may have, whether it's a job, a husband/wife, a new house, a baby, etc. Make sure you desire those things secondary to God! He comes first; I know it's easy to want these things and place God behind the things we desire, because they are in our face and we are surrounded by it in our daily life's, but we must remember this life is only temporary!

So make a list of all the things you want in life, and the list is yours so make it limitless! Then, pray over those things in which you desire, and pray they don't consume you; that they are second in your heart, and that out of everything you've listed you desire God's love the most!!

Anything you put your mind to you can do! Cast out fear and doubt and just go for it. What is stopping you? Most times its doubt! Get rid of doubt! Believe in yourself! If you have the thought you have the ability! We are designed so incredibly; we can do more than we actually think! That's our problem sometimes we "think" ourselves right out of our greatness! Transform your mind! That takes time so be patient with yourself! Start believing in you TODAY!

Life is a Journey!

Good morning!.. there comes a point in our lives when we look at ourselves and decide to make some improvements! I want to reassure you: "Working on yourself is not selfish"!..and their is no specific time or time frame when God has put it in your heart, mind and soul that it is time for a change! Time to be made over!! Anyone who isn't on board with this, well maybe their time in your life has expired! When God is PUSHING you forward don't allow the enemy to pull you back! Maybe you've realize that you haven't been loving yourself properly, maybe you've been given all your time, attention and efforts towards someone else, and have neglected yourself! Or maybe you are just ready for a change! Whatever your reason is GO FOR IT, not tomorrow but today! I pray whatever God has placed on your heart that you pursue it, and also that he places you at the right place at the right time with the right people! .....you guys!!! We've made it through wee

Society WHO?

Society WHO? “You are the one who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God’s sight.” –Luke 16:15 NIV What society sees and calls monumental, God sees through as calls monstrous. –Luke 16:15 MSG We tend to care too much on how others view us, what’s popular, what other people are doing, the latest trends, and these so called social media “GOALS” ! Worldly gratifications verses Gods satisfaction in us. We don’t care about pleasing God, we care about pleasing ourselves. We care about fitting in, and looking/acting the part. What the “world” says is it or as some of you say is LIT! Sex, Drugs, Lies, Cursing, Cheats, Thieves, Adultery…etc. Why not, everyone is doing it! It’s thrilling, it feels good, and because I want to. We can say whatever we want, but God knows our hearts! God doesn’t necessarily tell us not to do these things, because he wants to take away self-pleasure from us; he tells us t
