They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint! (Isaiah 40:31) One of the hardest moments in life is the space between believing God’s promise and the fulfilling of a promise. Your mind will battle with you while you’re waiting in faith, but you cannot allow the enemy to cause you to think negatively, as you wait for the manifestation of the vision and promise of God. As you wait for God’s timing, your waiting is never wasted time. Your time of waiting is producing mighty things in you! Your character is being developed as you wait in hope and faith. (James 1) I encourage you to look beyond your limits, your storm and your condition. Celebrate the big and small victories by giving God PRAISE IN ADVANCE!  “I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for!" (Jeremiah 29:11 MSG) ~ GO...

God has incredible and extraordinary blessings in mind for you that will forever remove obstacles that look permanent. (Jeremiah 29:11) One creative idea from God can propel you to new and greater levels, beyond anything you’ve seen before! Do not be fearful to move by faith, because of what you see or do not see. As you walk by faith and not by sight, your views are limited, but never forget, “Faith assures us of things we expect and convinces us of the existence of things we cannot see!” (Hebrews 11:1) Our GOD is with us! (Psalm 46:1, Matthew 1:23) Our GOD goes before us! (Deuteronomy 31:8) Our God will fight for us! (Deuteronomy 3:22) Be prepared for an unexplainable testimony coming into your life!  “Let go of your concerns! Then you will know that I am GOD! I rule the nations! I rule the earth!” (Psalm 46:10 GWT) ~ GOD Pray This Prayer With Me: Father, thank You for being an amazing God! You have fulfilled Your purposes over and over again throughout thousands of gene...

Our ability to praise God and offer true worship in the secret place maximizes our GOD and minimizes our struggles. (Psalm 91) Our enemy, satan despise when we praise God, because it sends fear and confusion into the enemy’s camp. The enemy may come at you from one direction, but when you lift up praise to God, they will flee in several different directions! (Deuteronomy 28:7) Who or what is up against you? Put A Praise On It—A praise that doesn’t make sense to the unbeliever. When GOD is for you, nothing with prevail against you! (Romans 8:37-39, Isaiah 54:17) Celebrate always, pray constantly and give thanks to God! (This is God’s will for all of you in Jesus the Anointed!) (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 The Voice—VOICE) “Stand Still & See What I Will Do To Save You Today!” (Exodus 14:13 GWT) ~ GOD "No Weapon That Is Formed Against You Will Prosper!" (Isaiah 54:17) ~ GOD Pray This Prayer With Me: LORD, I ask You to strengthen me to continue to endure and press a...

God’s Plan Goes Far Beyond What You Can Ask, Think Or Imagine, According To His Power That Is At Work Within You! (Ephesians 3:20) Your Best Is Yet To Come! What’s in front of you is greater than what is behind you! God’s present and future plans are always for your welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope! (Jeremiah 29:11 HSCB) The Hebrew translation for welfare is shalom meaning, “peace, complete state of well-being; fulfillment, happiness and prosperity.” Even in the midst of principalities, powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness in high places, God’s plans are not for evil, but they are always plans to give His children hope! I encourage you to trust God and believe He is at work in your life, believe greater is coming—He is working everything out for your good and His glory! (Romans 8:28) “I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future!” (Jeremiah 29:11) ~ GOD...

In order to move forward into the greatness God has for you, you must get comfortable with being uncomfortable, as you make moves by faith into the supernatural! What you’re experiencing is only temporary and it’s nothing in comparison to the glory and the greatness of God within you! (2 Corinthians 4:17 GWT, 1 John 4:4) At any moment, God can change your long expected prayer around for your good, if you will only believe! (Romans 8:28, John 20:29, Ephesians 3:19-20 Mark 9:23) I encourage you to live with expectancy that your atmosphere and all of your surroundings are getting ready to change for the better! GOD has GREATER for you! (Jeremiah 29:11) "Pray all the time and never give up!" "I will not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake or let you down!” (Luke 18:1, Hebrews 13:5) ~ GOD Pray This Prayer With Me: Father, today I surrender to You all that I have and all that I am and I ask that You continue to order my steps. (Hebrews 12:2, Psalm 37:23) May I...

"In righteousness you’ll be established; you will be far from tyranny, for you won’t be afraid, and from terror, for it won’t come near you. Watch! If anyone does attack you, it will not be from Me; whoever may attack you will fall because of you!" (Isaiah 54:14-15 ISV) ~ GOD Jesus says to you and I in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and NOTHING SHALL BY ANY MEANS HURT YOU!” I like the word NOTHING here. It is all-inclusive and sure! It covers every aspect of our lives: whether it is weapons of a lying tongue, weapons of discord, weapons of sickness and disease, weapons of debt and the list just goes on and on–NO weapon will prosper! I encourage you to trust God and fill in the “blank _______________” of the weapon that has been fashioned, formed or tailor made for you—IT WILL NOT WORK! The LORD Will Protect You From All Harm; He Will Protect Your Life! (Psalm 121:7 GWT)   “In this...

When God spoke to Moses in Exodus 3:14 saying, “I AM THAT I AM,” He was saying that His greatness is beyond human comprehension. As God spoke to Moses, He speaks to us today when He says, “I AM THAT I AM!” Meaning, “I AM who you need me to be in this very moment!” I AM is a Healer, when the doctors don’t know what to do! I AM is a Way Maker, when we can’t see our way! I AM is a Deliverer, when it seems you’re held captive! I AM is a Provider, when you’ve ran out of money, bills are due and you have no food! Your success is founded on having absolute trust in the God of our salvation! ( Isaiah 12:1-3 ) I encourage you to believe God when He says, "Nothing is too hard for Me!” (Jeremiah 32:27 GWT) God desires and He’s pleased when we come to Him asking for His help and strength. (Isaiah 41:13 GWT, Philippians 4:13) Our prayers are a small part of a broader and deeper conversation with our Heavenly Father, but our prayers are both powerful and effective! (James 5:16 “Do not be an...
