Jesus said that the words we speak reflect the true condition of our hearts. Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything…
Do you feel like your life may be in a holding pattern at times? Well, I completely understand and God has something He wanted me to share with you. My husband and I have been looking to purchase a home in Los Angeles for sometime now. But with the limited inventory and high listing prices…
How many of you wake up hungry every morning, carving the sweet “Presence of the Lord”. I do! My spirit has developed an insatiable appetite to be fed the Word of God and to experience His Presence; throughout the day. If you find yourself tired and emotionally drained, as you face life’s struggles, you should look in…
You must feed your spirit daily. It’s important that you’re feeding your bodies everyday with nutritious foods so you can remain healthy and strong. It’s equally as important that you’re feeding your spirit man the same. Our spirits can’t survive on one meal a week (Sunday service) they need to be feed each and every day, three meals a day and at least two snacks.
Why? How can you hear from God if you don’t spend time in His Presence? How can you build up your faith when you don’t spend any time feeding your spirit?
To have life-affirming thoughts of prosperity, health, happiness and success our minds must be fed with the word of God. We must build up our faith in “anticipation” of trails and challenges. If you wait to feed your spirit, like so many do, when you have challenges you won’t be prepared to stand and fight. In Ephesian 6:11, Paul says “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes” (NIV). The only way you can put on the full armor of God is through preparation, prayer and spending time walking with God. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY.

Spiritual Journaling. I love spiritual journaling! I call it writing love letters to God. King David’s writings in the book of Psalms influenced me years ago. One of my favorite things to do while traveling is to find the nearest book store and check out their journals. I have every color, size and shape you…
Do You Need A Fresh Start? I love Fresh Start! Why? Because I’m a big believer in constantly reevaluating my foundation and fixing cracks that can stop or detour me on my journey. I was extremely successful at this in the corporate world. I carried a lot of responsibility for the regulatory direction of the…

Have you ever thought about what life would be like if we could pick up the telephone and God was on the other end? What would it be like if we could call Heaven at any time and hear His voice, seek His blessings, and ask Him for guidance and wisdom? Well…you’ve probably never really…
When The Devil Whispers “You’re Not Good Enough”. It was my first large speaking engagement back in the ‘90s. Why I said yes was beyond me. I had never stood up in front of more than a handful of women at my Bible study or our church’s women’s retreat. Even then, I didn’t have to…
Yesterday, Pastor Roberts was at it again with a powerful message on to “be” or “being”. He wants to turn this message into a four-part series. I will share these with you over the coming weeks. I encourage you to get your pen and paper ready. You should takes notes. I have pages and pages…
I’m currently reading a book titled “Seeking The Face of God” written by Gary Thomas. I’ve sense learned that the book as been retitled “Thirsting for God”. I don’t have any idea how I came across this book or how long I’ve had it. The copyright date is 1994 so it’s not a new…

Today our pastor started a new series called True Life is Bearing Fruit. He went into great detail to explain how we have been engrafted into the family of Christ. When a branch is taken from its tree and engrafted into another tree, the roots of that branch is left behind and the branch takes…
I’ve shared everything from books, music, teachings, scriptures, sacred places and quotes, but today I’m sharing a message I heard by “Christian comedian” Michael Jr. It just popped up in my feed on Saturday. I enjoyed the message so that I wanted to share it with you. This was my first time hearing a Christian…
“What is the purpose of man, according to the Bible?” The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God created man and that He created him for His glory (see Isaiah 43:7). Therefore, the ultimate purpose of man, according to the Bible, is simply to glorify God. A harder question to answer, perhaps, is what does…
Are You One of God’s Friends? Pastor Roberts did an amazing job yesterday sharing on the “5 Things God’s Friends Can Expect.” He based his message on “for many are called, but few are chosen,” (Matthew 22:14, NIV). Last week, I posted a sermon by Pastor Banning Liebscher entitled “The Inner Room” based on Matthew 22:14.…
