Hello All,
Remember, no weapon formed against you is going to prosper. This doesn't mean that you will not have any opposition in your life, but it cannot ultimately hurt you. Your future is intact with God. He already knows the beginning and the end. You will go through things, but will not go under. God takes us through trials to make us strong. Keep praying and believing! Keep praise in your mouth! If you remain faithful, God promises to bring you out with VICTORY.
Be Blessed,

Hello All,
What are you wearing today? To protect our minds, we are to put on the “helmet of salvation.” Are your thoughts protected? The Fire Bible: Global Study Edition note for verse 13 says, “Being renewed in our minds (Rom. 12:2) and confident in our relationship with God will protect us in battle.” You can do this by focusing on God’s good things (see Phil. 4:8) and not on the corrupting influences of the world around you.
The next piece of God’s armor is the “sword of the Spirit,” or God’s Word. It’s imperative that we hide God’s Word in our hearts (see Ps. 119:11), for it’s not only a shield of faith but also a weapon for thwarting the enemy when he comes to put doubts in our hearts.
Finally, Paul tells us to “pray in the Spirit” on all occasions. Turning again to the Fire Bible: Global Study Edition, we read, “Prayer is not to be viewed as just another spiritual weapon but as part of the actual conflict itself,” and “Failure to pray diligently with all kinds of prayer in all situations is to surrender to the enemy.”
We must be like warriors who prepare and train for the battle they know they will face. This month, make your battle plan, ready your armor and draw close to God. In Him we are strong.
Be Blessed,

You Gotta Have Your Own Thing
Hello,
Improvement requires change. So, it's not enough to say you are going to do something. What matters is that you follow that up with action. Stop worrying about what other people have, or how they look, or what they are able to accomplish. Just DO YOU and God will bless you. God wants YOU to love yourself enough to want to be the best YOU possible. He wants you to seek Him to find out what your gifts are and use them to the fullest of your capability. Love the person you see in the mirror and be joyous that you don't look like anybody else! You have your own uniqueness that makes you special.
God is so proud of you, because He created you! He knows that you are predestined for greatness, and that it is all inside you ready to come out.
Are you willing to do your own thing? Can you love yourself enough? Of course you can!

Get It Together
Hello All,
Mondays have always been known for the BLAHS! Getting back to work, school, and the normal routine of things. Makes you take a deep breath and roll your eyes in the back of your head! Instead, let's think of Monday as a fresh start, new beginning, and another chance. People start diets on Mondays, vow to give up smoking on Mondays, and set goals for the week. We get motivated and excited because it is the hope of CHANGE and a turn around. What do you need to get your Monday motivated? Mark change within your spirit today and get your life going! It's really up to you if you want the Monday blahs, or a Monday full of possiblity and hope.
