Anger is the key to strife. Being angry or vexed in life really doesn’t steal any ones joy more than your own. When you struggle in the bondage of anger, initially you spew out all kinds of garbage from your mouth usually onto another person. You feel justified thinking I gave them the dose of truth they needed to hear. WRONG!!! What you did was play into the hands of the adversary and allowed him to use you as a tool. You would be better to do as this bible verse says put your hand over your mouth and pray for the Lord to reveal the source of your anger, sometimes when we look deep into our own hearts the Lord will reveal where this anger is rooted in. Satan will use any weakness or flaw within us to destroy not only others but ourselves keeping us in bondage to sin. Strengthen your soul, your mind daily with the word of God. Dress yourself with the armor or God lest you get stung by a fiery dart!

How do we Know the Voice of God

How do we know the voice of God? In so many of my days gone by I never understood what it meant to “hear” the voice of God. I continually felt lost thinking to myself why can’t I hear His voice speak to me. It wasn’t until recently that I began to realize that His voice can be heard by reading His word. So many answers lay in wait in the Gospel of truth. It will direct us in ALL our ways. We will begin to absolutely hear the voice of God more with our Spirit ears inside of us when we start meditating on who He is and what He wants to speak into our lives each day. Set aside the time to renew you mind every day in His word and you will hear His voice, He will Know you and you will follow Him! Father show us this morning what You have for us in this day. Teach us that Your word is how we navigate in a world that needs to hear more from You through us! Amen

How many of us know that God promises to fight for us? He promises to overcome our enemies, He promises to make us victors through the fire, He promises to save us from those that pursue us with evil intent, He promises to protect us under His mighty wing. And what do we need to do?? We only need to be still! Being still requires a mind that is set on Jesus. A mind that knows that no worry in me will change where you are leading me. Worry takes our eyes off the Savior and puts them on us. Faith requires us to be silent in voicing worry or speaking against ourselves. If you have to speak during times of trouble let it be a praise to the Lord for all He is fulfilling through you. So next time you get a flat tire praise Him because you don’t know what might have been ahead that He is saving you from. Next time our plans don’t work out praise Him for a chance that  He will bring about His plan which will be infinitely better than ours. No nothing can change the promise that God will f...

So many of us walk through life not knowing if we are making the “right” decisions. When we are seeking the Lord in all our steps the Lord gives us this promise in Psalms 37:23-24. He promises that if we are walking with Him and seeking His ways He delights in us. He also says that though we fall we WILL NOT be cast out from Him because the Lord is holding us in His mighty hand. So pray about your steps then move. God is taking care of the rest. He can’t hold you up if you’re paralyzed in fear afraid to walk! Walk your path with confidence in this psalm knowing He will always catch us when we fall!!
