Be Specific! 🙏


Ever heard someone say, "Be careful what you ask you , you just might get it"?

Well, that is so true! In Luke 11, Jesus teaches us how to pray! He also goes on to say "If you ask, you shall receive"! Be mindful, it doesn't come on your timing, but it comes when the Lord feels we are ready! That means your heart has to be ready, your mind has to be focused on him, and you have to have FAITH!

Ever ask for something, and get it;but it wasn't at all what you expected? From material things to relationships, jobs, etc.! Think back to when you were praying for these things... Now, ask yourself how specific you were with God? Often times we pray general prayers, but we give him no juice! He wants our details, just like we want the "tea"!

I've received some answered prayers that actually turned out to be some of my biggest lessons, because I wasn't specific!; and  because sometimes I'd be asking (begging) God for the very things he was saying NO to! He definitely showed me he knows best! (Lol) and it surely wasn't me! I've learned that I only want what God wants for me!

I pray that when we talk to God about the desires of our heart, that we are very specific! Also that our hearts align with his; so that the things we desire are the very things he wants for us!

Believe in YOU!

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

To Live Self Controlled

Image
The bible tells us to live self controlled (Titus 2:12)... Do you know how hard it is to be on a diet and control those cravings for food you know you can't have?! Or to be in a non martial relationship and refrain from having sexual intercourse? I knowwwwww yall know! It's hard!!! You know God could easily make us do what he ask of us, and it'd probably be better..but would we be happy? Most likely not! So he gives us free will to do as we please and he just ask us to not live worldly but godly lives and have self control! The more we focus our lives on him, the deeper our connection to him, the easier it is to live a life with control through him! Celibacy for me has been the greatest challenge of forming self discipline and self control! You know we aren't perfect so don't ever beat yourself up about it, because, we are going to fail, but it's ok, to just ask for forgiveness and start over! **Now that doesn't mean try the Lord! The bible also te
