WOMEN NEED MEN
Women love to learn. We will take a class for everything! God created women to love learning because men were supposed to teach them. And the men were supposed to get their knowledge and wisdom from God. But somewhere along the way men began to get their knowledge from other men and negated the God factor. Women now seek God for themselves and knowledge from various sources, leaving the man out of the picture. But we (women) need men to teach, to seek revelation from the LORD more than ever. His wisdom is on every corner waiting to be grasped. MEN, YOU ARE NECESSARY! I could go on and on. What are your thoughts??

Truly Redeemed
Either Jesus Christ died for the sin of the world or He didn't. If He did not then we are still dead in our sins. But by the grace of God through faith we are saved forever. It is a gift. Righteousness is a gift received from the LORD who justifies the ungodly. Without Christ's finished work we have nothing. He is the Arm of the LORD sent to buy back everyone and everything that was lost in the fall of Adam. "Finished" according to the One sent to do the work. Hallelujah!!

Father Makes Son
There is a story of a father who wanted to take his son for a ride in his Cadilac. The father said the son could only ride under certain conditions. He had to clean and clothed properly according to his standards as the father and owner of the car. So the father gets the son ready, clean and clothed exactly right based on his estimate of how the son should look and be.
This is what God has done for us with Jesus at the cross. He knew we could not meet His standards but He desired to be with us always instead of separated by His holy rules and regulations. God met His own standards by giving us His son to take our place of indignation and judgement so that we could take His place of righteousness. With His sacrifice we are now seated with Him in heavenly places. And as Jesus is so are we.

Faith
When we see God as gracious, able, and faithful to act favorably in our lives, He calls that faith.
Faith is a practical expression of your confidence in God. And in His Word. exercise it like it's the norm and like His Word is the way all things should be. Practice faith; practice seeing God as gracious, available to meet you every need and to care for you like only a Father can. Trust Him. Be confident in His love for you. Your trust will be expressed by your commitment to remain loved by the LORD.
Many Blessings in Jesus' name.

The joy of the LORD is your strength
The gifts of God (Creator of heaven and earth) are just that, gifts, and He adds no sorrow with it. He works through our desires to demonstrate our caabilities and purpose. Untimately we never know what we are capable of until we fulfill what is burning in our hearts. We have to trust the burning desire and not the need to fulfill necessities. If we wait for conditions to be just right to move, we will never take the plunge. God wants us to trust that He will not steer us in the wrong direction as if HE doesn't recognize out needs and conditions. He knows and wants to give us more through new opportunities that are created and those that open before our eyes. Many blessing friends.

Salvation per the Almigty
Your part in the new covenant of God's unmerited favor is to believe that you are completely forgiven of all your sins, and that the blood of Jesus cleanses you from all your unrighteousness and lawlessness.

Misplaced Trust
People are fickle. God is truth and remains faithful at all times. You would be a fool to put your trust in people and not the things of God. He remains faithful because it is who He is and there is no separation.

I Accept!
He (God) will glorify me (Jesus), for he (God) will take what is mine (Jesus) and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you. (John 16:14, 15 ESV)
I accept! All that You have Lord I accept on Your behalf. Healing. Prosperity. Riches. Free from curses. Abundant life. Free from sin and unbelief. Forever cleansed. Never forsaken by the Father. Salvation. Everlasting life. Forever righteous. I accept.

What does the Holy Spirit convict us of?
Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper (Holy Spirit) will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. (John 16:7-11 ESV)
The Holy Spirit convicts the world of the sin of unbelief for those who do not believe in Christ, believers of their righteousness in Christ Jesus, and the devil of his judgement.

Who died for you?
My friend, the truth is that if you are a believer, God does not bring any charge against you. Instead, He justifies you because of the blood of His Son.
In fact, God's Word goes on to say that the One who has the right to condemn you, chose instead to die for you and is risen at the Father's right hand to be your
righteousness! (Romans 8:34)

Good Shepherd-Jesus
"I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. (John 10:14, 15 NIV)

ALL POWER IN CHRIST
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earthin Him. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory. Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. (Ephesians 1:3-23 NKJV)

NOT A FAN
In the Gospels Jesus never seemed too interested in fans. Is that how you define your relationship with Him? An enthusiastic admirer? Close enough to Jesus to get the benefits but not so close to require sacrifice? There’s got to be more than just going to church, praying when in a jam, and volunteering at a shelter. Are there moments in your life where you feel like you are just blending in? Are you just part of the audience?
Are there times when you wish you could really engage in your life? Maybe you want to really take a stand for something.
Maybe what you really need is to be a follower and not a fan.
Maybe it’s time to do something. Show the world that you are a follower and not a fan. In the Gospels Jesus never seemed too interested in fans. He was looking for followers. Not just any follower though… completely. committed. follower.

GOD OF EVERYTHING
The LORD is my shepherd.
I lack nothing.
He lets me rest in grassy meadows;
he leads me to restful waters;
he keeps me alive.
He guides me in proper paths
for the sake of his good name.
Even when I walk
through the darkest valley,
I fear no danger
because you are with me.
Your rod and your staff—
they protect me.
You set a table for me
right in front of my enemies.
You bathe my head in oil;
my cup is so full it spills over!
Yes, goodness and faithful love
will pursue me all the days of my life,
and I will live in the LORD’s house
as long as I live. (Psalms 23:1-6 CEB)

GODS LOVE
God loves us all. He sent His Son Jesus as a final, ultimate sacrifice, for all to have a chance at entrench life. If we'd only just believe...
COVERED BY HIS GRACE
He who the Son sets free si free indeed!
No sin can keep you from the love of God. Love hard. Do what God would have you to do and move forward! Follow your dreams. Or ask God for a new dream...
Jesus left his mark with His Spirit. Our debt (sin) has been paid in full. For His grace is suffucient.
When we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we get the gift of His Grace and His Righteousness. Once we begin to believe in Jesus Christ, our sin is credited as righteousness. So Forget about your past and love one another. Give others the gift of Jesus!
GOD IS AWESOME!!!!!!

ITS YOUR INHERITANCE
Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise. Now you, brothers and sisters, like Isaac, are children of promise. At that time the son born according to the flesh persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now. But what does Scripture say? "Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman's son." Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman. (Galatians 4:21-23, 28-31 NIV)
NO LAW, JUST JESUS
So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? So also Abraham "believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness." So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. (Galatians 3:5, 6, 24, 25, 29 NIV)

FEARLESS WEALTH
When God blesses one with wealth, He gives them the ability to keep it and to keep busy. God won't give you wealth if all you want to do is sit down.
"Moreover, when God gives someone wealth and possessions, and the ability to enjoy them, to accept their lot and be happy in their toil—this is a gift of God. They seldom reflect on the days of their life, because God keeps them occupied with gladness of heart." (Ecclesiastes 5:19, 20 NIV)
