Know Where You’re At

by woman2womanministries1

This morning when I left work at 3am I went to the ATM to get my son some money. I had not a care in the world. I left my car running and was not watching my back to see if someone was going to rob me, shoot me or rape me. When I got back in my car I thought; if I was back home in Chicago this wouldn’t have happened. My son would have been broke going to school today. But, where I live we don’t have to worry about any of this. Crime is not a factor in our everyday lives. I know I can only have this mindset while I’m living in this part of the world. I know where I’m at. 

So, this brings me to my point. Do we know where we’re at in Christ? Do we know what areas in our lives are falling short? Do we know what areas in our lives have been stolen by the enemy?

 I want to get to the point in Christ where I don’t worry about a thing. I want to get to a point in Christ where I don’t watch my back from church folk, family members and the enemy. I want to get to a point in Christ where I let God be God and stay out of his business. In some areas of my life I already do this, but in other areas of my life I’m failing miserably. I want the total package in Christ. His word says I didn’t give you the spirit of fear but of love, power, and a sound mind. I know where I’m at, do you know where you are?

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

To God You May Be

by woman2womanministries1

My youngest daughter and I were talking tonight and she said; what would you do without me in this house? She said there would be no humor in here. I quickly replied, I’m funny. She said, to God you may be but not to me. We both started laughing, but she said something so profound. 

The only thing that matters is what God thinks of you and me. It really doesn’t amount to a hill of beans what other people think. If God thinks I’m beautiful, I don’t need anyone to tell me I’m beautiful. If God thinks you’re mighty, who cares if someone thinks you’re not all that. When God raises you up and brings you out, don’t look for anyone else’s approval. God is the approving authority in and on your life, not people.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Read The Instructions

by woman2womanministries1

Today I bought me a new laptop computer and turned it on and expected to know how to work it right away. I became flustered when everything I was doing was wrong. I said to my kids, I’m taking this back tomorrow and get my money back. Mind you, I’ve been looking at this computer for months. Researching it for months, only to have it and not like it. My daughter said; calm down where’s the instructions. She began to read the instructions and was like, see mom there’s nothing wrong with the operating system, it’s just the operator doesn’t know what she’s doing.

I thought to myself aloud, I don’t have the patience for this. Then Jesus dropped this in my spirit. How many of us have access to the bible but don’t read it? We want to act like we know what the word says but we don’t want to read it, so we won’t have to live by it. When we read the bible many times things become clearer to us. Just like when my daughter started reading the instructions, I began to operate the computer correctly. Jesus died so that we could come to him for ourselves. He’s in the word just like he’s in the prayer. So, the next time you need to know how to operate in life, read the instructions ( BIBLE) Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

You Don’t Always Have To Respond

by woman2womanministries1

Sometimes people just say things to see how you’re going to respond to them. You need to shock them and not respond. Pay them no mind. Just like Jesus did when they brought him the woman caught in adultery. He just was writing on the ground, finally he said; he without sin cast the first stone. It’s amazing to me how people live right for one day then want to highlight everyone else’s sin.

When people start talking about other people’s sin, I just think that could’ve been me, but God. When I see people snap and commit homicide, I think that could’ve been me, but God. When I see people out of their mind, I think that could’ve been me, but God. Instead of responding to the people that bring you negativity, start praising God in their face. Praise God that it’s not you. Praise God for delivering you, praise him for snatching you out of the enemies hand and saving you from hell. I guarantee if you do this, people will stop bringing you foolishness because that’s not the response they were looking for.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

That’s Not How The Story Ends

by woman2womanministries1

You may be going through something and it may seem as if the whole world is against you. No matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to make anything work. Now you’re at your wits end and you have given up, you’ve thrown in the towel, you’ve realized whose truly in your corner and you don’t know where you stand in your faith in God. Actually, you’re right where God wants you. Now that you’ve come to the end of yourself, God doesn’t have to compete with you for his glory. Now that you’ve come to the end of yourself, God can be God.

Your story doesn’t end with you broke, busted and disgusted. Your story doesn’t end with you being defeated. Your story ends with you being an overcoming. Your story ends with you having more than enough, with you having the victory, with you increasing your faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. 

So, no matter what the story looks like now, in the end you win.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

There’s A Blessing In The Storm

by woman2womanministries1

When we see the storm coming many of us start to complain. It’s too much snow, it’s too wet outside, the schools are closing, etc… Have we ever stopped to think, that some farmer prayed for the rain so his crops would grow, and in return it keeps the prices low at supermarket? Have we ever thought that someone needed a new roof but didn’t have the money, but because the storm came and tore off the roof now the home insurance can pay for it? Have we ever thought that man or that woman didn’t have enough gas to get to work all week, but because the storm came, the city was shut down for a few days and that gas held them over until payday because they didn’t have to move their car?

Don’t despise the storms of life. If we really look in the storm we will see all kinds of blessings. We will see how we were going to take a trip but the storm came, and the exact place we were going got wiped out. We will see that the hand written was on the wall all the time, but the storm had to come to uncover it. We will see, that it’s not God’s will that none should perish, but that all have eternal life.

Embrace your storm and know there’s blessings all the way through it. 

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

I Don’t Need This

by woman2womanministries1

Have someone ever made you so mad and before you knew it, you said; I don’t need this? I don’t need this job. I don’t need this drama, and I really don’t need you. As soon as the words came out of your mouth, you realized that in your anger you just messed up real bad. It was too late to take it back. As a result, you lost your job, your friends and your relationship. Yes, it hurts but God always has a way for you to recover. You see, it’s not always the enemy that takes from us. Sometimes, we are our own worst enemy and we freely give our stuff away.

You know, if you were thinking clearly you would never say I don’t need this job. As hard as it is to find a good person to share your life with, you would never be so quick to say; I don’t need you. You cannot allow anger to get the best of you. What if God said; I don’t need this. I already live with the Father in heaven. I don’t need this. These people don’t do nothing but lie, steal, cheat, curse, fornicate, commit adultery, etc… I don’t need this. These people only want material things, they don’t want anything spiritual. But, instead, Jesus said, we needed this. We needed for him to die for our sins. We needed for him to forgive us for the same thing over and over again. We needed for him to love us when we couldn’t and didn’t love ourselves. 

The next time you feel like you don’t need this. Keep it to yourself, don’t throw away your blessings, and take it to the Lord in prayer.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Pray For Me

by woman2womanministries1

When people ask you to pray for them, do you really pray for them? Do you tell them, I’ll pray for you and keep it moving? Do you have good intentions on praying for them but get side tracked in the process and forget?

Now when people ask me to pray for them, I stop what I’m doing and pray for them right then and there. It doesn’t matter where we are at. We can be at work, the grocery store, out to dinner, etc… I use to tell people I’d pray for them, then I would forget. I would become busy with doing something else or focussing on my kids. I just find it better to touch and agree with them right there. We all need prayer and the mere fact someone has trusted us enough to come to us and ask for prayer, should make us stop and take a minute to pray. We just don’t know that our prayers may have helped them make it just one more day. Our prayers may have stopped them from committing suicide or homicide. Our prayers may have made them say; I’ll run on to see what the ends going to be. 

Make sure you’re never to busy to stop and pray when someone asks. It might just save their life.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Company Is Coming

by woman2womanministries1

When we know company is coming over we clean up our house. We don’t like for people to see things out of place. We make sure the kitchen is clean so that our guest are not afraid to ask for a glass of water. We make sure the bathroom is spotless, because you know they’re going to want to use the bathroom.

Some of us have unexpected company , and we might have to clean up while they’re there. We say; they should have called first. Well, what’s going to happen when the trumpet sounds and Jesus cracks the sky?

Will our spiritual houses be clean? We won’t have time to clean up. We won’t be able to say; Jesus you should have called first. Jesus is calling now, but many of us are not answering the phone. We are not opening the door of our heart. The ultimate company is coming to our house and sadly, many people will not be ready to receive him and let him in.

Don’t get caught with your house out of order. It will not be beneficial to you.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

There Is No Difference

by woman2womanministries1

Many people think if you just think about sinning and don’t act on your thoughts then it’s not sin. There is no difference. You could be sleeping around, and I can be thinking about sleeping around, we both are sinning and there is no difference. We often like to rank sins and God says sin is sin. 

Because there is no difference, we have no right to sit in judgement of no one. So, stop thinking you are so good and you never sin. Your mind is messed up. Your thoughts are not of God. The only difference between you thinking it and someone else doing it, is they were bold enough to act on their thoughts and you thought you were without sin, if you only thought about it. The bible says; if you sow unto the flesh, you will reap unto the flesh. If you sow unto the spirit, you will reap unto the spirit. 

So, stop deceiving yourself thinking you’ve done nothing wrong. And, as soon as you go to put your mouth on someone that is doing what you are thinking about doing; remember, there is no difference.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
