A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Sin Is To Be Avoided!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 15 May 2014 12:30:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Luke 10: 41-42:: “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

Romans 16:17: I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.

2 John 1: 10: If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; 11. for the one who gives him a greeting participates in his evil deeds.

City Hall is a place where our leaders gather to make major decisions about the way we choose to live... They are suppose to be there to serve, uphold, and maintain Christian Lifestyles this nations was born with...Selah.

Grace makes a man serious about his soul; and a soul without Grace is dangerous...Think Of This: Sin is contagious! When a man suffers from a contagious disease no one wants to come near him.

Why would we allow ourselves or our children to come in contact with this person who has a disease?... Why are we not afraid of sin?

How dare we risk ourselves or our children by allowing evil to come into our homes. Sin is far more deadly than Shingles, Smallpox or fever...Selah.

The point is this. In the most earnest affairs of this life a Christian must never forget the one thing necessary, the care of your soul. Your soul is as precious as the breath that you breathe...

All of our actions, thoughts; and professions needs to be accompanied with special care least we error; and anything not of faith is sin... its hurtful, and counted as dung; and it will not help you get to heaven.

The dignity of one’s soul requires the one and Chief Most Needful Thing Is To – Set At The Feet Of Jesus!

Let’s decide to start this day with a prayer for our city and nation, and expect to see changes and to have a great work day! God Bless.

Almighty God Our Father, we know that the nation whose God is the Lord is Blessed, so we declare today that the Houston Metropolitan Area, is a city that worships the living God.

We Confess that we are a city that will love our neighbors and we will love ourselves. We declare that we are a city that trusts in You and practice teachings we have learned from Your Word...

O Lord, we will live safely in this land and we do prosper. We expect Blessings to rest upon our business, educational, political, judicial, social, technological, and health system in our city and our nation.

Lord, we declare that we are a city that acknowledges Your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, we declare that our councilmen are men and women of integrity who are obedient concerning us that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

We confess that the upright are in position in this city and shall remain in authority... But! the wicked shall be cut off and the treacherous shall be rooted out of it in Jesus name.

Father, “It is written that the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord and You turn it whichever way You desire...

In Jesus name we pray expecting to see a manifestation of Your power and Glory....So let it be done!

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Peace Not Panic! Our Best Defense"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Tue, 29 Apr 2014 15:12:00 +0000

Psalm 31: 2-3 : Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me. Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me.

Stand up for righteousness, stand up for truth; and God will be at your side forever. If we face opposition when we are trying to do what’s right, we must cry out to the Lord. He alone is our “rock of refuge, a fortress of defense.” He is our reliable source of strength and protection.... When we trust the power of God, we can experience peace and not panic. God Bless.

Awesome Father, You are a great God, and a Great King above all other gods. You merely spoke and the heavens were created. You breathed the Word and all the stars were born. You assigned boundaries to the seas and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.

Lord, let the whole world fear You and let everyone stand in awe of You! You are great and greatly to be praised. You are to be feared above all gods.

Our Father, Your works are wonderful, and we praise You with our whole hearts. We will tell of Your marvelous works.

Holy One, You control this worlds events. You remove Kings and set up other kings. You give wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the scholars. You reveal deep and mysterious things and know what lays hidden in darkness, even though You are surrounded by Light.

O Lord, as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is Your Mercy towards those who fear You, as far as the east is from the west, You have removed our transgressions from us.

O Lord, Our God, how excellent is Your name in all the earth. You are the One who forgives “All” our sins, heals us from diseases, redeems our lives from destruction, and crown us with tender mercies... You fill our lives with good things and renew our youth like the eagle’s. How we honor You as Lord and Savior.

Holy One, we are not ashamed of the gospel, it is power unto salvation, and today, we will speak of Your righteousness and Your praise all day long. You are our portion and our Hope.

In Jesus name we give You honor and glory with thanksgiving... Amen...Amen!

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "God's Plan For Couples!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 27 Mar 2014 15:04:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Jeremiah 29: 11: “For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord,’ plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Matthew 18: 19 : “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

1 Peter 3: 7 : Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.

God does have a will for families, and He imparts specific directions for His people through prayer. But He does not reveal His entire plan at one time. Prayer is vital to hearing from God and gaining insight. Selah. God requires couples to be doers of the Word. Failure to do so can hinder your prayers...Selah.

When you seek the Lord and press into the knowledge of His will, changes will be made in you, your children, and other family members in prayer. Spending time in God’s presence becomes precious and you will grow stronger and have a deeper and more intimate relationship with the Lord and your mate.

Become committed to praying and obeying God’s Word; and you will discover His plans and purposes for you and your family. Allow Him to show you how to walk out those plans in everyday life. Work on building a sure foundation... After All, two is always better than one! God Bless.

Blessed are You, Lord God Our Father, forever and ever... You are Lord, and You are Great and Greatly to be praised throughout the heavens and in all the earth. Yours O Lord is the Kingdom and You are exalted as head over all. Both riches and honor comes from You dear Lord, and You reign over all.

Father, You will fulfill the desire of those who fear You and will hear their cry and save them.

Father, we lift up these couples for a harmonious marriage. We confess their marriage is honorable, worthy, precious, and of great price. We declare they live in one accord with each other, having the same mind.

We declare they delight in each other and are united in spirit. Thank You Father, we believe they are gentle, compassionate, courteous, tender hearted and bear up under anything and everything that comes...

O Our Father, we declare they seek peace and it keeps their hearts in quietness and blessed assurance. We confess these couples grows stronger day by day founded on Your Word; being rooted and grounded in Your love.

Father, we thank You for watching over Your Word and performing it in Jesus name we give you praise with thanksgiving... Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Healer Of My Hurts!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 20 Feb 2014 21:51:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Exodus 15: 25-26: Printed: 26: He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying His commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.” Psalm 103: 3: who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases.

Has there been a situation you have encountered recently at your work station or in a relationship that has been bitter to drink or swallow? Our God heals the broken hearted and He binds up your wounds... Give your hurts to Him and He will heal your bitterness. Then you will be able to drink of His living waters.

He is Jehovah-Raphe, “The God of your health.” Forgiving someone does not mean that they were right and you were wrong. Forgiveness is about your heart attitude and following God’s commands in your life... God will make an exception between you and that person who hurt you so deeply... You can either get better or remain bitter? Selah. What will it be? It is a choice you make. God Bless.

Holy Father, sometime it seems very dark in our world, but we only need a small flame to light a dark corner. Lord, help us to shine as lights in our world. Father, we cannot do this on our own strength, but as we trust You Most Holy One to empower us; and as we accept Your promises and obey them, we will walk in victory.

Our Father, we pray this day and everyday, that we may lighten the lives of those whose world seems dark with anxiety; and who feel unable to continue because their path ahead looks threatening. Strengthen them by Your power and Your might in their inner man.

O, Our Father, You are so faithful, and we desire to be like You. Holy One, this day, may our faithfulness inspire them to trust in You completely. In Jesus name we pray with thanksgiving... Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "GOD WANTS US STRONGER THAN OUR ADVERSARIES!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Sun, 09 Feb 2014 17:57:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Jer. 33: 3. Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. Prov. 16: 3. Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.

1 Cor. 10: 13. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind.

God wants to give us a strategy. You need to ask Him. Ask for a strategy and he will cause our thoughts to be conducive to His will. Not anything that we are going through is a surprise to God... Ask God, and He will lead us through the valley. You will go through the valley...

The Lord has equipped us with everything that we need. We have Angels, The Scripture that gives instructions, prophetic declarations, and we have saints with illumination... Remember: God is faithful; he will not let us be tempted beyond what we can bear. But when we are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that we can endure it.

This week end, consider God’s Wisdom, His strength, His faithfulness and truth. Consider His willingness to undertake our burdens as we give them all to Him...and no one else i.e( self, friends, fortune or chance) or whatever...Selah.

In Him, you can do all things because it’s He Who gives us strength... We have the Victory! Be Blessed.

Sovereign Lord, Establish our thought and quiet our minds so that we are able to work the works assigned to us.

Father, we realize where there is works to be done, there will be thoughts. Holy One, help us to keep our mind free from trouble and distractions as we remember Your counsel.

O,Our father, teach us to trust Your love, and to dwell in confidence because You hold us in the palm of Your hands; and our face is ever before You.

Thank You Father, we are strong and full of Your Grace and we will fulfill our ministry that You have entrusted us to. We love You Father, and we worship and give You honor and praise.

In Jesus name... Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Prepare & Don’t Despair Nor Faint!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Fri, 07 Feb 2014 14:00:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Jeremiah 4: 3: This is what the Lord says to the people of Judah and to Jerusalem: “Break up your unplowed ground and do not sow among thorns. Isaiah 40: 3: Listen! It’s the voice of someone shouting, “Clear the way through the wilderness for the Lord! Make a straight highway through the wasteland for our God!

Making Plans For Your Tax Return Refund? Have you started making plans on sowing or eating your seed? There is a saying, “If it’s not enough to meet my need, it must be my seed!”...Question: Do you have rocks in the garden of your heart that need to be cleared before you plant? Only God can take away a stony heart and create a clean one. Is your heart full of crooked ways and rough places that still love sin? ...Notice: Sowing is a part of your worship... Know this: A divided mind in unstable in all it’s ways and is not dependable, reliable, or faithful... Do you sow your seed unto man and not to God?... Maybe this is why you’ve had crop failure...Selah. Do you sometimes feel you are about to faint in your spirit; and hear these words coming out of your mouth like, “I don’t know how much longer I can take this.” or “It doesn’t matter what I do, nothing works.” Know This: Fainting never wins and winning never faint...Selah. This year, plan to sow into good ground. Prepare for your harvest even before you plant. Have the God kind of faith and condition your heart to receive a good crop. Make sure the soil that you sow into is God. When you plow with God, you are actually plowing up your own fallow ground. God doesn’t need cultivating, but we do.. After All, you are the one who reaps the harvest; and the harvest still belongs to the owner of the field..Selah. This year we are expecting a double portion. Sow as unto the Lord, and the harvest will come back to you. Just Do It! God Bless.

Gracious Father, You are Good, and ready to forgive, and plenteous in mercy to all those who call upon You in spirit and in truth. Father,You are Great and You do Wondrous things.You alone are God and there is none like You. Father God, we need You... Lord, You have given us Your Word as a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. Open the eyes of our heart to see You clearly. Holy One, teach us how to worship You with an undivided heart and we will walk in Your truth. Father, when distractions begin to flood our mind today, keep us focused and on purpose. Dear Lord, sometimes it is hard to function when everything around us is so dysfunctional. Lord, Our eyes are on You. Father, we thank You for filling us with a full, deep, and clear knowledge of Your will and therefore we go forth this day and everyday to bear fruit for Your delight according to the root within us. In Jesus name we will never cease to give You praise with thanksgiving. Amen... Amen.

Cancer - “Something that is happening FOR me vs. Something that is happening TO me.”

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Mon, 15 Jul 2013 13:20:00 +0000

It Happened to Me: By Nancy Gauthier

Last year, my husband and I took the most adventurous vacation ever in St. Lucia in the Caribbean. We went zip lining, hiking, dining on a mountaintop, deep-sea fishing, etc. We enjoyed every moment and met a lot of wonderful people on the island.

After returning from our trip and settling in for a week or so, I decided to go to the doctor and get my annual physical, which I’ve gotten every year since I was 19 years old. Since I have thyroid problems, I make sure to get blood work done annually. Well, my PCP was on vacation and I was determined to get my physical done so I decided to go to another doctor. After the examination, the doctor told me that my nodules appeared to be swollen and he wanted to perform a biopsy. I was told that it was nothing to worry about because 97% of the time, they are benign and I would get my results back in 7-10 days. The test was done on Wednesday and to my surprise I received a call on Friday from the doctor himself stating that he had bad news for me. His words to me were, “I’m sorry to inform you that your results are back and you have thyroid cancer.” Afterwards I cried, asking God, “Why me, Why me. I’m one of the healthiest people that’s alive”. I drowned myself in my private pity party for several days.

A day or two later a still voice whispered, “Why not you? Why do you feel that you are so great that this illness should be bestowed upon someone else?” Nothing in this world is greater than having a relationship with God. Within moments of dealing with this reality check, I began to look at this situation as “Something that is happening FOR me vs. Something that is happening TO me.” My ultimate desire was to go to MD Anderson, because it is known all over the world for being the #1 Cancer Hospital. I had done my research and the doctor that I wanted didn’t have an appointment available for 2-3 months. Unbelievable!!! I called my endocrinologist and told him that MD Anderson could get me in within 2-3 months. Upon my surprise, I was told I didn’t have that long to wait. My husband, Lloyd Gauthier, and I went into prayer. We cried together, laughed together, and took so many strolls down memory lane. At this point we didn’t know what else to do. Through it all, we knew God was still in control and had a plan.

My doctor suggested a surgeon for us – Dr. Borski. After talking to Dr. Borski for a few minutes, I knew he was the doctor for me, even though he was not a doctor at MD Anderson. My husband also said that he felt a sense of peace that he was the surgeon that we were to use. Sometimes we get wrapped into names (MD Anderson), but God is everywhere and HE is the ultimate healer. We do what we know to do in the natural but then we lean on Him to do the supernatural. I was initially told that I would have to do several rounds of radiation. I had already declared that after my first round I would be cancer free. I wouldn’t tell anyone that it was easy, but it was worth it. God allowed me to be surrounded by so many angels during this time. I met others who willingly shared their stories of their battles with thyroid cancer. One lady that I met stated that she had to go through 30 sessions of chemotherapy. She asked me how many I had gone through and I responded that I had not gone through any chemotherapy sessions but had only done one round of radiation, just as I had declared (thanks to God).

After my surgery and radiation treatment, I made several trips to the hospital for follow-up blood work and monitoring of my Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) level (something that everyone should have checked). For those who don’t know, the normal range for the TSH level is between 0.5 and 5.0 (remember that the highest it should be is 5.0). At one point, even my endocrinologist was shocked to see that my TSH level was 86.9. He couldn’t understand how I was functioning. In the end, my TSH level did come down into the lower single digits and I continue to ensure that it is in normal range.

I can’t help but to cry when I think about how good people were to me. Lloyd, thank you sooooo much for being the spouse that everyone dreams of having on their side. I thank God everyday for allowing me to share my life with you. Through it all, he refused to leave my side for a moment. Now that’s my soul mate. Thank you, Mom for your prayers and being there with me. Mothers like you make the world a better place. Special thanks for my family for being there with me when I needed you the most. LOVE YOU GUYS SOOOOO MUCH! It’s good to have friends that are prayer warriors. Thanks to my neighbors for cooking for us and helping to maintain the yard. Thanks for all the scarves so that I could keep my scar covered to reduce the chances of infection. I had over 150 scarves that were given to me. Thanks for the coworkers that wore scarves to show their support (especially the men. :-) You guys are the greatest!!!! Thank you for the prayers, cards, letters, gifts, monetary donations. My coworker is a member of Brookhollow Church in Houston, TX. Thank you to the cancer ministry of Brookhollow that flooded me with cards and words of encouragement, even still until this day.

Life is GOOD! In the end, I got the VICTORY. After all of the prayers of agreement from everyone in my close circle, the goal was reached and I can declare that I am cancer free in Jesus name. What the devil meant for evil, God meant for good. I can now say proudly, “I AM A CANCER SURVIVOR”. We celebrated my victory by going to Turks and Caicos Island in the Caribbean this year. God is so good. For those that say, “it’s the best cancer to have”, ask Roger Ebert (American #1 film critic, journalist, and screenwriter). He recently lost his long fought battle against thyroid cancer. I realize that my situation could have ended differently but I thank God that He intervened. Some may say, “why do you give God the credit when you stated that you had surgery to remove your cancer?” My response – if just going to the hospital to be treated for cancer was the answer, all cancer patients treated in hospitals would survive. This is not to suggest that cancer patients who lost their battles, didn’t have faith; there are many factors to come into play in such battles as this. But I believe in a Higher Power that has control over that which is not seen. I believe in an Authority that understands that which confuses man. Again, this didn’t happen TO me, it happened FOR me and THROUGH me. There is someone who’s now going through the same thing but doesn’t have the spouse, family, neighbors, or any type of support unit to help them through this. My prayer is that my story will encourage you. We cannot control what happens in our lives, but only how we react.

Just remember, “Feed your faith and your enemies will starve to death.” An enemy is not always an illness but can be challenges with finances, marriage, difficult children, mental depression, etc. Be encouraged and know that God’s plans are bigger than our plans.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Abiding In The Land Of Promise!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 09 May 2013 13:30:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Hebrews 8: 10 b. : “I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

Proverbs 2: 1-2 and 5: My Son, if you receive my words, and treasure my commandments within you, So that you incline your ear unto wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding. v.5 Then you will understand the fear of he Lord, And find the knowledge of God.

Do you ever have trouble believing the Word of God and not just mentally agreeing with it? We all have struggled with this at one time or another...

What can you do when your mind staggers? You must meditate on that promise for your victory....Selah.

Take time to envision the promise until it becomes a reality inside of you. It is tremendously powerful when you focus on the promises God has given you. Selah.

Hold out for God’s Best for you. Do not be enticed into accepting anything less than His best for your life.... Never consider an alternative for your promise... Hold On!

If you are going to stand in the days ahead, you are going to need some mountain moving faith that only comes by giving yourself totally to the Word; more diligently than you’ve ever done before!... You can do this! God Bless...

Loving Heavenly Father, You are so full of compassion. Your unfailing love comforts us; and when we fall Your strength gets us up again..

O Lord, give us grace to trust during the in between times when our minds wants to stagger, but yet, Dear Lord, our spirits stands firm.

O Holy One, open our hearts to hear Your sayings and we will tenaciously hold on to Your promises.

Holy One, shape our thinking as we devote this time in prayer and waiting upon Your promises in Jesus Name we pray and give praise with thanksgiving. Amen... Amen.

Philippians 4: 13: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Let this scripture be a guiding light for you this day and everyday... Know and believe that Jesus will enable you to do anything He asks of you. Nothing is impossible for him who believes.

You must step out of the mental realm and open your heart to hear the Spirit of God on every subject. Selah.

Know that “It can’t be done” does not exist in your vocabulary! Remember to keep smiling even when you feel like crying because you are a victor in the Lord Jesus Christ... You can make it no matter what you are going through. God will strengthen you. God Bless.

Holy One, You have endowed our human existence with possibilities beyond our human imaginings. You calls us to high endeavors, to serve one another; to be gracious in offering support as well as receiving it...

Lord, you have called us to celebrate one another achievements; and to weep with those who weep, and rejoice with those who rejoice.

Holy One, encourage us in those capacities to contribute to strengthening the bonds that binds us to one another that Your joy in us may be complete. In Jesus name we pray and praise with thanksgiving. Amen... Amen.

Good Morning Everyone,

Psalm 37: 1: Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

What is it that causes you to be feel pressured and anxious? The sin of fretfulness is a sin against ourselves. It destroys your peace of mind, and it fosters bitterness, harshness and faultfinding. It causes envy and lack of faith... Selah.

This week end, have the God kind of faith. Start knowing that the Word of God is absolutely trustworthy. Expect God’s Shepherding Care... He will keep you from want, protect you; and He will restore you...

Believe the Lord for your vindication and not seeking it yourself. Let’s commit all of our plans to the Lord. You can do this. God Bless.

Holy Father, You have given us many blessings from above, and each of us has been given a position in this life to be productive within the body of Christ.

Father, help us to fret not and actively, and consciously trust Your Word. Holy One, remind us that every situation is an opportunity to choose to trust You rather than our own inclinations.

Thank You Lord, You have positioned us as guiding lights to lead those in darkness to Your marvelous Light. Holy One, while we are at our work stations today, may we not set our Work as priority over Your Presence... May we be reminded of our call, that is, to Love people more. Breathe in us O Lord, in Jesus name we pray Amen... Amen.

Deliverance is the children’s bread. Every child of God has a right to enjoy the benefits of deliverance from the hand of the enemy.... Deliverance brings freedom and Joy...

Are you waiting for a breakthrough? The Name of the Lord is a way of speaking of God’s person... Selah.

The righteous turn to God for security. In contrast, others turn to their riches; and their wealth. We are safe when we hide under the Ark of His Word... The ones on the outside of the Ark are in trouble.... Stay in faith. We can run in and be safe. God Bless.

Father, we thank You for the revelation of Your Love. When Your people have access to Power of the Spoken Word, they will prosper. Thank You Father, we decree and declare that as their soul prospers, they will prosper and be in good health.

Merciful Father, we thank You for those whom we care who are passing through the deep places of pain and sorrow yet refuse to be dismayed.

Father, we thank You for those who can look death in the face and know that it has no power to touch their spirit... O Lord, we thank You for those who not knowing what the future holds, nor how to make ends meet yet still face the future without complaining.

Holy One, their spirit lifts our spirit. Father God, You are our advocate; We thank You for all of Your promises are yes and Amen. So let it be done in Jesus name. Amen... Amen.

There is healing and deliverance if you are battling any type of physical or mental infirmity. The Word of God is a two-edge sword and it will drive out every trace of this affliction trying to attach itself to your body, soul, and spirit. Rise up and take your victory! The Lord is your refuge and strength! He has already won the battle! Rise up and sing praises to the Lord! He has already done it! By Faith we call it done. Be Blessed.

Father, we lift before you those in the body of Christ who are suffering persecution as well as those who are in prison from their own beliefs.

Father, we know that You watch over Your Word to perform it. Therefore, we speak Your Word and establish Your Covenant in the earth. We pray your children will receive answers needed by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Thank You Father, for revealing unto Your people the integrity of Your Word and they must be firm in faith against the devil at his onset. You are their Light and their salvation.

Father, You are their refuge and stronghold and You will hide them in Your shelter and set them upon a high rock.

Father, it is Your will they prosper and be in good health even as their soul prospers, and they shall live in Victory! Love we Love You and we praise You in Jesus name Amen... Amen.

1 Peter 5: 8 Amp: Be well balanced(temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a roaring(in fierce hunger), seeking someone to seize upon and devour.

We all have dreams and visions for our lives. However, having a dream is only the beginning. Acquiring our dream requires prayer... If you desire to become a mature Christian, you must learn a disciplined life.

Get over thinking that you can’t do it because it’s too hard.... Determine today to allow the Holy Spirit to help you exercise restraint over your thoughts, feelings, desires, and your actions... Selah.

Then you will discover that your world of frustrations will disappear to victory through your acts of discipline and self-control!..Selah.

The devil works overtime to keep us from living a life of victory... Remember: Unless God gives us a Word in the midst of our distress and disappointments, there is noting anyone can say or do that will comfort us... Selah. God’s Word in your mouth will determine your walk, the substance of your witness, and the delight in your Joy. Be Blessed.

Almighty God Our Father, uncrown our hearts, so that we can bring to remembrance Your Word, Your warning; and Your Power.

Father, deliver us from evil and put to shame those who wish us evil. Lord, we refrain our feet from every evil way, so that we might keep Your Word. We cancel every plan and force of evil sent against us in our lives.

Father, We declare our hope is in You Lord, Who richly and ceaselessly gives us all things for our enjoyment. We declare that Your law shall depart out of our mouth and we will meditate in it day and night and do as You commands us, and then we shall prosper be in good health and have good success.

Thank You Father, we shall be as a tree planted by the waters, that spreads out her roots and our leaves shall not wither in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit...

O God, we declare we are yielding much fruit and everything You set our hands to do will prosper. We are prospering in our business, our homes, in our families. We are prospering coming in and going out; we are free from frustrations because the Peace Maker lives big in us today in Jesus name Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Character & Purity Are Choices!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 14:56:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

1 Cor. 5: 11: But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner – not even to eat with such a person.

Exodus 23: 25: So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.

It seems that our nation have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in times of peace and how God have multiplied and enriched us and strengthened us through the years.

We have forgotten all of God’s Blessings and Wisdom and become self-sufficient and look not at the things of God any longer in our nation...

Our people struggle with Character and Integrity.... Selah.

Today, we struggle to find heroes of Character, a congressman who will not tell a lie and one who is not filled with deceitfulness and greed...Still our so called Christians are masked and their tongues are silent...Selah. And most of our young people do not know how to tap into their God Given dreams...We need to arise from our slumber! It is time to repent and pray! God Bless.

Father, in the name of Jesus, You have instructed us, “Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what part has a believer with an unbeliever?”

Father, we repent and separate ourselves from any unclean things... O God, You have stressed how important it is to guard our hearts from evil, for out of it flow the springs of life.

Dear Lord, unclog our minds from media sites that poison our soul and displays crooked living.

Father, unmask us as Leaders, and fill us with boldness. Holy One, wake up the spiritual leaders of our nation today to understand Your disgust at their drunkenness as well...

Your Word says, “Priest and Prophets stumble because they are drunk. Their minds are too confused to receive or to give a clear timeless messages or for some to make honest decisions within this Body ...

O Father, in Jesus name help us! Have mercy on us Lord! Lord, give us a conscience that will always follow in Your footsteps and remember how You suffered for us.

Holy One, we need a suddenly and we are expecting one in Jesus name we pray with thanksgiving... Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Transformed By His Presence!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 20:27:00 +0000

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Romans 12: 1-2: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Everyone of us desires to improve himself in one area or another, whether it’s to be a better spouse, employee, or just a better Christian and to “Know God’s Will.” The best way to know God’s will is to be familiar with the Bible because everything you need to know concerning His will is in the Bible...

However, The Key is to be submitted by spending time in His Presence and be willing to do whatever He shows you and then you will know His leading..Selah.

Some Christians are like a tennis ball and others are like Play Dough... If you squeezed a tennis ball in your hand, it would take the shape of your hand but when you release the pressure, it would immediately go back to its original shape. That’s the person who attends seminars, read a books, listens to tapes or sermons and they say, “Amen” and agree with what is said...But, they leave the meeting and the pressure is off, so they go back to the way they were with no lasting change..Selah.

Doing all these things you can know about God, but spending time in His Presence you can get to Know “Him!”Selah.

However, do the same with Clay and squeezed the ball, it would take the shape of your hand, But this time the ball has been transformed into the shape of your hand and holds that shape. Spending time in the Lord’s presence - His Spirit will transform you into a new person... We must go beyond seeing what needs to be changed and become as Clay in the hands of the Great Potter...Selah.

However, if you have this intimate relationship with Him by spending time in His Presence, then whenever you hear the Word of God, it will become a lasting impression on you. Selah. Then, you will know that His Word has transformed you. Try it! You can do this... God Bless.

Father, You have given us many blessings from above and each of us has been given a position in this life to be productive within the body of Christ. O Lord, some of us are literally assigned to be Life Preservers to rescue others from ruin.

Father, Help us to consciously trust and act in accordance with Your Word rather than our own inclinations.

Father, help us to understand that those who have the Truth of Your Word in their hands without an intimate relationship with You can be a dangerous weapon, because knowledge without being intimate can cause damage to ourselves and other around us...

Holy One, remind us to avoid setting work over Your Presence..

Father, thank You, daily we are being transformed into the image of Your Dear Son and developing a closer relationship with Him in Jesus name we pray and give You Praise. Amen.... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Your Mouth Is Your Future!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Sat, 02 Mar 2013 14:28:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Luke 4: 18-19: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”

Matthew 12: 34 b-37:”For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things; and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.”

Are You waiting for an overflow of God’s Glory in Your life? Experiencing God’s Glory and walking in it daily doesn’t just happen automatically...Selah.

You are where you are right now because of the words you spoke yesterday...and the day before that...and the day before that. That’s simply the way God Created us. “You are a Speaking Spirit!” And, like God, our words carry power.

Believing God and His Word is not nearly as hard as disciplining our tongue to speak in line with the Word and in light of this revelation that the words we speak now will come to pass later...Selah.

As believers, you and I now have God’s Word to speak and God’s Anointing with which to speak it. Our future is up to us, and it’s all based on the words we use to bring forth good things, or bring forth evil things...Selah.

God is unwilling for us to have even one bad day, one broke day, or one sick day. He desires that every day be an overflow day. Your faith filled words are alive and full of power and they are backed by the Anointing of God, the very power that created the universe. Selah...

You are What the Word says you are, and you can do what the words says you can do, and can have what the Word says you can have!.. Now Get Up and Speak Up!

The violent takes by force!...Determine not to let the devil steal your health, your wealth, or your place in eternity. Today, begin speaking and agreeing with God’s Overflow! You can do this. God Needs Your Voice! God Bless.

Father, we thank You that the communication of our faith becomes effectual by our acknowledging every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus... O Lord, we hear the voice of the Good Shepherd and the voice of the stranger we will not follow.

Father God, we believe in our heart and say with our mouth that this day the will of God is done in our life and we’re walking worthy, well pleasing, and bearing much fruit! Thank You Father, we roll all our works upon You, and You make our thoughts agreeable to Your will, and thereby our plans are established and succeed.

Holy One, direct our steps and make them sure as we firmly grasp Your Will. We declare that we stand firm and we’re not vague, thoughtless or foolish and fully assured in everything willed by You

Father God...

Now Father, we have entered into that blessed rest by trusting, adhering, and relying on You in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! We give You Praise, Honor and Thanksgiving! Amen.... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Begin At His Feet!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 14:36:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Luke 10: 45: Jesus said to Martha, “Martha, You are worried and troubled about many things. But only one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken from her.”

Are you one of those who are still trying to harness your hopes for this year and all the serious intentions of your life, and get control? Control is what everyone longs for.

There must be a balance between home, children, work and play, but there are so many demands from everyone and everything... Your spouse, parents, the children, neighbors and so on and on...even those who quietly sit alone are often faced with pressure of needing to make changes in their not so busy enough lives...Selah.

Only one thing is needful. Just One. Begin at His Feet(Jesus). You are not compelled to go and do, because your doing can become confusing when we do not take the time to sit at the feet of Jesus...

He is Alpha and Omega and we must begin and end everything with Him each and every day...Selah.

Facing the new storms in this country sitting at His feet will be vital... Selah. Let the Holy Spirit speak to you and imprint more of His Nature, His Wisdom, and His Ability in your heart. This week end, determine that every new demand and each decision you face, you will always reflect back to Him.... Begin Now! Find your secrete place and do the one thing needful.. Sit at His feet! Be Blessed.

Lord, It is for our own good that You have asked us to love You with all our heart, soul and strength. Father, Your Word says, “What does the Lord Your God requires, but to fear the Lord Your God, to walk Humble in all His ways, and to serve Him with all of our heart and soul and observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that You have given us.”

Holy One, help us to devote our heart and soul to seeking You. Father God, may we always remember, to not allow our soul to be unguarded and allow deep soul ties with this world’s system nor separate us from Your Love.

Father, fill us with Hope for the future. For Your wisdom is sweet as honey and when we find it, we find hope that will not be cut off.

O Lord, we Love and Honor You for You fill our soul with Your Goodness and not with things of this world. O Holy One, this week end we will delight ourselves in Your Sweet Riches of Your Grace with thanksgiving. In Jesus name we pray and give You Praise Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Don't Rob God!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 28 Feb 2013 14:19:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Hebrews 4: 14-16: Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of Grace, that we may obtain mercy and find Grace to help in time of need.

Why do people fail to come into the secrete place?... Some don’t feel accepted... Some, because the wears and tears of life causes them to feel shame. Some may fall victim of Abuse, Divorce, or Disappointment in their lives. Some may feel Abandoned and Ashamed.Selah...

But! When the Holy Spirit comes into our lives at salvation, He comes to make us Holy in Practice... If our offerings are not pleasing and appropriate to God and it is consciously done then, we have robbed Him...Selah.

God wants us vulnerable in His Presence. He desires Truth in your inner most place. It is very important to acknowledge the hidden things because the enemy will use our secrets as a weapon against us.

Satan tells us to keep things hidden because he don’t want us to trust God with who we really are thereby keeping us in Bondage...Then he (Satan) holds the keys to our secret place. Therefore, we are more intimate with the enemy than we are with our Father.

Never hand the keys to your heart over to Satan. There is a place of Worship and it’s not on a map, it is in Spirit & Truth. Spending Time With Him Today Requires Truth. He wants you vulnerable. God Bless.

Father, in the name of Jesus we come boldly before your throne casting every cares on You. We come recognizing our total dependency on You and we Know You are dependable. We take comfort; and we are encouraged that You always hear us when we pray, and we can boldly say that You are our Helper, and we will not fear, dread, nor be terrified of what man can do to us.

Father God, this day we declare we are bold towards Satan, demons, evil spirits, sickness, disease, and poverty because You Jesus is Head of all Rule and Authority...

Lord Jesus, You made an Bold display, and public example of them, triumphing over them.

Holy One, we can boldly declare that Satan is a defeated foe, and Our God (Jesus) Reigns.

Thank You Father we are bold as a lion for You have made us the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus and we are complete in Him!

Thank You Lord, we have complete security in You, for this Lord, we give You Praise Amen.... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Don't Settle - Live Excellent!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 02:02:00 +0000

Good Evening Everyone,

Proverbs 17: 27: “He that has knowledge spareth his words; and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.”

Proverbs 2: 7-11: “He stores up sound wisdom for the righteous: He is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. He guards the paths of justice, and preserves the way of His saints. Then shall you understand righteousness, and justice, equity; and every good path. When wisdom enters into your heart, and knowledge is pleasant to your soul; discretion shall preserve you; and understanding shall keep you.”

Do you feel that you are in a rat race including (freeway driving) daily trying to keep up with the masses? Which way are we all going? What will happen to our nation? With all of the upheavals, killings, lying, cheating, and stealing; hating!!...Know this! : “Man, in and of himself can’t change his fallen nature.”

All these things that happen are caused by spiritual forces, and those who are alive unto God must arise and take your place, and stand against these forces of evil, or else they will move in everywhere they can... Selah.

We must stand in the gap and make a hedge and these conditions will be turned around...Selah. Learn to sense what is vital; and approve what is excellent! Don’t settle for mere existence when we can have excellence! Keep Gods’ Word in your eyes, in your mouth and in your heart and we will see the results of God’s Power!

Today at your work stations, take a wholehearted approach to everything that you do and it will always produce a life of excellence... God Bless.

Almighty God Our Father, Your Word declares that we are to take Your Words and return to the Lord, and say, to Him, take away iniquity and receive us graciously, for we will offer the sacrifices of our lips...

O Lord God, we bring Your Words before Your throne and we declare, You have given us the keys of the Kingdom, and whatever we bind and declare improper and unlawful on earth is bound in Heaven and whatever is loosed on earth is loosed in Heaven.

Therefore we bind and cast down wickedness and evil over our city and render them absolutely harmless against us, our family, or our finances, and anything having to do with us in the name of Jesus.

We loose the angels of God to bring the wealth of the sinner that is laid up for the just this day and everyday... we loose the angels of God to cause a sevenfold return to everything that has been stolen from us in the name of Jesus...

Father, we thank You we have been delivered from the evil of this present world, for it is Your will that nothing shall by any means harm us.

Holy One, no evil on assignment, or plague shall come near to us or our dwelling as we come in and go out.

Lord, in our path there is life and there is no death. Thank You Jesus for Peace that passes all men understanding and for guarding our heart and mind with good things in Jesus name we give You Praise and Thanksgiving... Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Seeking His Highest Good!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 15:00:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Psalm 138: 8: The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your Mercy, O Lord, endures Forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands.

There is no greater feeling in the world than the feeling of knowing that you are secure in the things you are involved in regardless of how things look...For every human need, there is divine sufficiency.

Our security comes from knowing the Word of God. It is God who made and fashioned us; and cut us out to be reflectors of His character and to represent His life. We are the objects of His Love.

Today, seek to live in a closer relationship with Him. He will make perfect those things which concerns you whether it is your possessions, family, finances, or your health, He will perfect it. Selah... Your security is in Him. Selah. God Bless.

Our Father, we realize that You have a perfect plan for our lives. Lord, we present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy; and acceptable to You. Thank You Father, we are not conformed to this world’s system but transformed by the renewing of our mind, so that we may prove what is good and acceptable and what is Your perfect will for our lives.

Holy One, give us understanding and clear directions as we carry out our assignments... O Lord, You are so faithful, and we know we can depend on You in hard places.

Father, we may be hard pressed on every side but not crushed, perplexed but not in despair; persecuted but not forsaken; struck down but we are not destroyed...

Father God, Our trust is in You and we will never cease to give You Praise and Thanksgiving In Jesus name Amen... Amen.

“Seeking His Highest Good!”

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Jehovah-Jireh-The Lord Will See & Provide!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 14:51:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Malachi 3: 8-10: Printed vs. 10: Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this, Says the Lord of host, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessings that there will not be room to receive it.”

Are you still trying to balance the budget for this month? Have you been thinking about these rising gas prices? Do you still have more Month than money?

If so, recalculate and put God first! Selah... Pay God! Give Him what is His already! We always want God to hold up His end of the bargain, but it is also important that we obey His commands. If we rob God, how can we expect Him to bless us?

Make the devil mad by writing out your tithes check first “every time,” because He is your Great Provider!... Expect God to supply all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus... It is all out of His Pocket and Not yours! Selah.

When the devil tries to bring a picture of lack to your mind, put it out immediately. Make yourself think on those things which are pure, honest, just, lovely and of a good report, if it’s not a good report, cast that thought out... Then use the words of your mouth and the thoughts of your mind to Praise God for His Words Working in your life. After all, Praise is a good way to keep your mind on the Lord and off your problems. This is a good week-end to put in practice what we Speak. Enjoy... God Bless.

Father, in Jesus name, we give honor to the Truth and Integrity of Your Word.

Father, we believe we receive a one-hundred fold return on our seeds sown...

Father, we thank You for the one hundred fold return, and we confess and declare boldly before You and the host of heaven and earth the the hundred fold return is ours now in Jesus name.

Holy One, we have given of our life and possessions to follow You for the Gospel sake and now the return is working on out behalf, and on it’s way to us.. O Lord, we thank You for an abundance of blessings, for it is You Who gives us power to get wealth that You may establish your covenant in the earth.

Father God, Your Word is true and we know that You are alert and active, watching over Your Word to perform it in our lives.

Holy One, we are so thankful that the blessings of the Lord makes us truly rich and adds no sorrow with it.

O Lord, Your Loving Kindness endures forever and Your Goodness and Mercy follows us all the days of our life in Jesus name...So Be It ! Amen!... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Fight The Good Fight Of Faith!"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:17:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

1 Timothy 6: 12: Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

1 Peter 5: 8-9: Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

Have you been feeling like someone has knocked out your lights recently? Stand Up and Fight! You’ve got to put some action to what you say you believe so God can come and invade your situation and circumstances...

He has the power to deliver you, and set you free. If you will believe, seek, and act on the Word, God will come on the scene by His Spirit, invade your life and cause things to happen that you could never see in the natural realm. Selah!

Today, if you become discouraged, turn to Jesus. If you grow tired, let Him strengthen you. To many people are trying and not believing. To try is to attempt something. When you attempt it, you’re hoping to succeed.

To Believe is to count something as true... When you try something, you do not believe it’s going to work... You hope it’s going to work. Many people are trying to have faith, but they don’t believe. “Don’t try!....Believe!” God Bless!

Father, in Jesus name, we thank You that the entrance of Your Word brings light, and that You watch over Your Word to perform it.

Father, we praise You for Your Word and the limitlessness of prayer in the name of Jesus. O God, our desire is to please and bless You as we pray in line with Your Word.

Father, we know that You always Joyfully hear and it is delighted to answer when we pray. Holy One, help us to withstand the adversary and to be firm in faith against him at the onset.

Lord, help us to be rooted, established, strong, and determined as we speak Your Word boldly and courageously this day and everyday...

Father, save us from pride and fear; from complacency and dullness of vision and may we always find fresh wonder as Your children in Jesus Name we give You Honor and Praise Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "What Are You Focusing On?"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 14:30:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Philippians 2: 9-11: Wherefore God also has highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

This world is filled with trouble. Every day someone is challenged with economic difficulties or physical problems. The list of diseases that people battle can be endless... Notice: After Jesus’s death on the Cross, He was given a Name above every name. No other name is higher than Jesus Name.

However, if we don’t keep our focus on Jesus’ Name and all that it provides, the circumstances in our life will become so big in our own sight that we may begin to doubt Jesus ability to help us...Selah.

On the other hand, the more we focus on Jesus, the more troubling things of life-sickness, poverty, financial problems, and so forth-will fade away. The hardships we are encountering will become smaller and smaller until they will eventually disappear...Selah.

The Name Jesus is above depression, cancer, lack, and any other negative circumstance we might face. Don’t focus on your troubles more than His Name.... Be Blessed.

Father, in the name of Jesus, we come before You in faith believing that Your Word runs swiftly throughout the earth to show Yourself strong on behalf of those whose heart are humble towards You.

O God, we are not moved by adverse circumstances as Satan attempts to challenge us, but we resist him steadfast in faith letting patience have her perfect work.

Holy One, we are expecting Your divine intervention while we choose not to look at the things that are seen but at the things that are unseen because what is seen is subject to change..

Our Father, we thank You that we have been given a spirit of power, love, and a calm well-balanced mind of self control; and we have a fresh mental and spiritual attitude for we are renewed in our mind with Your Holy Word.

Thank You Father, we are set free from every evil work and we praise You, for the Joy of the Lord is our strength and stronghold! In Jesus name we pray and give you Glory! Amen.... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "What Are Your Convictions?"

noreply@blogger.com (Maxine) — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 14:50:00 +0000

Good Morning Everyone,

Isa. 49: 15-16: Says, “Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet I will not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.”

Man has always had great convictions whether it was about race, love, truth, or morality. God’s eyes are on you! A person who is without convictions is as weak as a door hanging on it’s lowest hinge. We are living in an age of uncertainty where some have blended to look so much like the world, some have lost hope... They are unable to stand in faith and they know what God wants them to do... Selah.

The believer’s life is a life of Joy and Victory! God Has Not Forgotten You! Be encouraged and fix this in your memory when you are feeling these three D’s... Deserted, Discouraged, and Depressed! Our God will never forsake or forget us. He has us engraved on the palms of His hands. Take His Word and begin to meditate on His Promises and doubt, fear and discouragement will dissipate. Hold on to your convictions and stand for something or you will fall for anything.... Be Strong and Be Blessed!

Almighty God Our Father we come before Your throne full of joy and victory, knowing that You care for us.

Father, grant us increase in faith and love so that we may have power to do Your Will. Father, You know those who seek Your face and those who put their trust in You... Though we may walk in the midst of trouble Lord, You are our strong hold...

Holy One, revive us in our trouble and stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of our enemies and save us.

O Lord, we will rejoice and be glad in Your Mercy, because You have considered us in our trouble and You have known our soul in adversities.

Holy One, You have been our help in seasons past and You continue to be our shield; for this, we will never cease to give You Praise, Honor and Glory in Jesus name Amen... Amen.

“We Are Embedded In Our Convictions!”
