Prayer and fasting is a personal and intimate growth process that requires devout labor. Accepting Christ as Lord is often chosen as a fire escape instead of a life's journey. Sometimes people accept Christ to belong to a group of people for personal support. Others become a Christian to maintain family tradition. What was your motivation? If you are not being moved to seek the deeper things of God, as a deer pants for fresh water (Psalms 42:1"As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God".), you may need to take inventory of your spiritual position and condition. The Holy Spirit dwelling naturally results in a hunger and thirst for spiritual growth!

What Is Our Motivation?

Blessings Children of the Most High! To God be all the Glory, for He alone is worthy of all the fruits of our lips! Praise God siblings! Jesus is the standard that we must measure ourselves with! We must follow Him in doing the Will of our Father, Amen!  As a parent, we automatically are concerned for our children and will assist them in any way possible as long as it's in the will of the Father. We must never go beyond or above (compromise) the word of the Lord! With that being said, the fruit of our wombs (men's loins) are motivation to be that safe haven and sounding board for our children. Well let me ask you this, as Siblings in Christ, what motivates you to walk the straight and narrow, to lead someone to the Cross, to tell them of the goodness of the Lord?  Ephesians 3:17 KJV "That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love" Grounded in Love! Just the love of the Father alone is motivation enough for me t...

Prodigals~

Blessings people of God. What is a prodigal? It makes you think about the passages of the prodigal son in the New Testament. The wayward son that wanted his inheritance now so that he could go out into the world and find himself, do this ring any bells? (Luke 15:11-32) Webster define prodigal :wastefully or recklessly extravagant, person who spends, or has spent, his or her money or substance with wasteful extravagance; spendthrift. Well isn't it true that some of us being in the Father's will do this now? Yes! So to us the first thing that comes to mind "is someone run away from home (fathers will) to get their fill of the world" So how we have been praying for the prodigals in our families? Be it husbands, wives , children and so forth. I know I've been crying out and sparing not asking the Lord to save my family from themselves, which is ok. But the Spirit made it very clear this morning on how to pray for those! SALVATION! Ok but some of you are saying "t...

Heavenly Father I come before Your throne of Grace asking forgiveness of my sins. Knowingly and Unknowingly. Lord Your word says in 1 John 1:9 "That if we confess our sins that you are faithful and just to forgive is of our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness" Thank you Lord for cleansing us and keeping us daily! Father I ask in Jesus name that You will allow Your Holy Spirit to rise up within me and Speak only what You say and not Tracie's flesh! Have your way Father. In Jesus name I do pray, Amen As I type this out in tears this scripture has been in my Spirit for three days (God Jesus Holy Spirit - rose from the dead in 3 days) 1 Samuel 15:22 "And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams" I understand and know that Sacrificing the flesh (worldly, evil, ungodly things) is a must in order to DIE DA...
