3 Keys For Automatic Success

 Moving forward requires three things: preparation, dedication and revelation. To succeed, you must depend upon God for direction daily. - Thomas Dexter Jakes

If there's anything that guarantees you automatic success in life, it's these three things. You may not naturally have joy and peace all the time, but if anything will make you successful on your journey and get you back to them it's your preparation, dedication, and revelation.

Who's Dream Are You Living? 

God created each of us and gave us purpose. Within purpose, there are dreams, goals, and aspirations. It's easy to see the lifestyles of the rich and famous, and think that's something to aspire to, but is it right for you? The blueprint and the details for our unique situations are directly tied to our Divine revelation.


The main way for us to know what's right for us as individuals is to acknowledge and connect with the Most High Creator. 

Daily time spent to pray and communicate with God increases the chances that we'll do that which were created for. It's in the diligence.


Prayer is the best thing to do regularly, it also builds a habit of consistency in other areas. The things that drive us, what we go after, and why we go after them will affect what we produce as well as the outcome we receive.
"Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain."(Psa. 127.1)
When we intentionally seek God first and go about our day in the spirit we reap all that comes with it. The manifestation of our divine dream is promising. Often we fail to realize that the spiritual world is even more real than the physical one we see.

"Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." (Matt. 6.33) 
"All these things" include abundance on a greater level than we can imagine, even greater than the selfish desires we may envision. God's dream for us is better than any dream we could ever imagine by ourselves, and when we stand behind that vision it becomes the motivating force that empowers and keeps pushing us to achieve them. 

It's faith that makes our "in the meantime" moments so powerful.

Christ said: "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10.10) yes this likely includes financial wealth, but having emotional intelligence, peace, and personal G.P.S for our soul is a type of bag that's unmatched.

It's putting God first that helps us stay motivated. Living The dream is not the one the world has in mind. It's a vision by the Master of creation. There's no road map to life, but there is a guide to living "the real dream". Scripture which is God breathed helps the chosen tap into our destiny, daily. 
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jer. 29.11)

Heavy On The "Thank You God"

In 2020, There was a meme circulating around the internet that said "Heavy on The Thank You GOD" My immediate thought was: "I know that's right!"

In 2020 we were in a worldwide pandemic. So many lives were lost, and to have survived that, and be alive and blessed today, the weight of the "thank you GOD" is immeasurable. 

At the start of this year various sources stated there would be a total blackout at some point in the year, many people thought it would be earlier around April, however, Prophetess Tiphani Montgomery has recently been sharing content to warn God's people to start preparing. 

While biblically the world is only set to get worse, remember that El Gibor always wins!



 While we watch, pray and prepare . . . may we also praise:

"O give thanks unto the LORD; for He is good: For His mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks unto the God of gods: For His mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks to the Lord of lords: For His mercy endureth for ever. To Him who alone doeth great wonders: For His mercy endureth for ever. To Him that by wisdom made the heavens: For His mercy endureth for ever. To Him that stretched out the earth above the waters: For His mercy endureth for ever. To Him that made great lights: For His mercy endureth for ever: The sun to rule by day: For His mercy endureth for ever: The moon and stars to rule by night: For His mercy endureth for ever." ~ Psalm 136: 1-9

 

Here's some motivational music to aid in your praise today:

10 Ways The Holy Spirit Gives You Energy

There was a post I saw online that read: "10 Signs You're Burning Out" when our body's energy is burning out, there can be obvious signs of that. 


Most people burn lots of energy, they might try to renew with some energy drink named after a beast or a demon, or just cope with it however they can. The good news is there is a much better option for renewed strength and vitality than any type of liquid courage.

Speaking of The Most High's word and breath of life, the Bible literally reads: 

"Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh." (Prov. 4:21-22)

There is life and peace in our divine purpose and power from the Holy Spirit. Our passion should be a source of restoration.

If by chance you are currently suffering or feeling burnt out, crack the Book open. It literally can improve all aspects of our health. Here's how:

1. It Fights Exhaustion

 "But as for me, I am filled with power, with the Spirit of the LORD,..."- Micah 3:8. Micah was addressing being empowered for a specific task in this verse, but being under the influence of the holy spirit revitalizes physical, mental and spiritual power. 


2. It Promotes Motivation

When we are subjected to the spirit of God we feel a robust energy to take on whatever obstacle or duty that is at hand. Continually being empowered by a life giving word whether written or spoken elicits a motivation in our spirit that can't be contained. "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me." - Phillipians 4:13


3. It Helps Eliminate Frustration, Cynicism and Other Negative Emotions
Living in divine purpose and feeling the of empowerment to achieve your calling backed by the holy spirit completely terminates any feeling that what you’re doing doesn't matter that much or your effort is useless. it decreases the need for pessimism. Everybody does experience negative emotions from time to time, but feelings of frustration and cynicism in a spirit-filled life are very few and narrowly in-between.

4. It Stabilizes Focus

Weariness interferes with our ability to concentrate on menial tasks, but understanding the source of peace and revitalization of our spirit makes our focus in pursuit of it inevitable. When we are tired and worn we naturally cry out, we want to specify and directly make our petitions heard. When we Focus in worship, or meditation it's often the holy spirit that helps us communicate and gain results. "In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans." -Roman 8: 26-30

5. It Enhances Job Performance.

When we are motivated to do a job, free from exhaustion and the task has a sense of intrinsic value to us, we do it with ease. Our passion is in our purpose when we love it, we will do anything for it. We are happy to build the skill it takes to excel in that area. "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."-Romans 8:28

6. It Decreases interpersonal problems at home and work.

The joy of the spirit as well as understanding how purpose works decreases conflicts with other people it helps to highlight other peoples talents, roles, and specific value. The spirit helps us make a better connection with others. Through purpose we see the resource and value of relationships, we're more inclined to hear what others have to say. The holy spirit increases unity.

7. It Increases ability to make healthy choices.

If we want to live to see the vision, and our goals come to pass we understand the importance of maintaining healthy  productive habits for our mind, body, and spirit to promote vital longevity. The holy spirit also gives discernment in certain situations. "for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say."-Luke 12:12

8. It Improves Life/Work balance.

Recovering from the stress of work is easy because generally stress is less severe when you're doing what you love. It is important to stop when the actual "career" task stops and take time to celebrate with family and bask in the the beauty of life. If you just can't beat stress and worry see (every other number on this list).

9. It Generally Increases Satisfaction.

Having a good work and life balance means knowing the importance of good time management.   Purpose and time go hand in hand. understanding purpose is making the best of your time to fulfill it. Time is valuable, however fulfilling purpose is for any given day or even second.  The spirit puts our time in sync with God's time and produces an overall happiness in our lives. 

The fulfillment of the spirit overpowers the happiness of any other love or material wealth. "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit," -Romans 14:17



10. It Has Health Benefits

"a sense of enthusiasm, of hopefulness, of engagement in life, and the ability to face life’s stresses with emotional balance—appears to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. The protective effect was distinct and measurable, even when taking into account such wholesome behaviors as not smoking and regular exercise."  -according to one study quoted in a Harvard Medical Journal The root of hopefulness, engagement, and enthusiasm can be traced from joy, which the holy spirit provides in abundance. 

As I mentioned at the beginning continually being empowered by a life giving word enlivens the holy spirit and the healing restoration it provides. 

"My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. -Proverbs 4:20-22"
So skip the the energy drinks and try the "wings" of  the Holy Spirit's on for flight! Go win, and make today awesome on purpose!

GOD Delights In You


You will be fed 🌿

As believers, we have spiritual food. 

GOD's word gives us vitality. 

The Word says obeying GOD literally gives "life to our bones and health to our body"*

The food we get isn’t just talking about natural food, it's talking about GOD being the Provider of everything we need.

Our Heavenly Father waters us. We are the planted and the "branches" of The Lord. By streams of still, but living waters we get the peace and energy we need for divine productivity.

We've heard "delight yourself in The Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart."

We should also note: our praise and obedience to The Most High is a delight to Him✨️

As royal priests, when we bring our praise and worship before GOD we become fruitful and fed, then it spreads:

". . . And all nations will call you blessed: for you will be a delightsome land, says The Lord of hosts."

Has GOD ever opened your eyes?

Has GOD ever opened your eyes?

Maybe you wanted to get something accomplished, were trying to get to a destination, or leave a destination. Sometimes we can just find ourselves in a hard place and it’s like in that time all we can see is what we can't do and what we don't have. . . so much so, that it's like we're blind to what we do have.

Have you ever realized the solution was right in front of you but it wasn’t until you consulted with GOD that you could see it?

That feeling is like: “wow! how did I miss that?


GOD has a way of opening blind eyes, as well as distracted and desolate eyes. It's what he did for Hagar in the wilderness and Jacob as well.

Hagar said: "you're the GOD who sees me and it was GOD that caused her eyes to be opened up and see that she had provision right in front of her:

“Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the boy a drink.” - Genesis 21:19


if you tired of searching and not seeing, look no further, your provision is in The Lord!

Similarly with Jacob, Peniel, The place where he saw GOD face to face is apart of Gilead.

Gilead is said to be where balms of healing are.

We know who the balm of healing is. . . where our healing flows from as GOD's children. Sometimes it just takes an encounter with Jehovah Jireh!

Thursday

Wake Up and Renounce!

Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits whether they are of GOD: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. - 1 John 4:1.

Just like there are false prophets in the world, we also know that the devil is a liar and if there is any spirit that causes us to come into agreement with a lie, then he’s for it, however it has to be sent.

Dreams too are experiences, just like we have experiences in this world. Dreams have the ability to come with torment and deceit, and things like these ARE NOT in alignment with GOD’s will for His children.

Be aware that some dreams aren’t just dreams.

  • Some dreams are covenants/products of covenants.
  • Some dreams are strongholds.
  • Some dreams are trauma bonds sent to be relived.

When you see them squash them! Just like a natural reaction with uninvited pests, let it be the same in the spirit realm!

We're instructed toCast down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of GOD, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of The Messiah;

If a dream is causing a spirit of anger, you wake up and you’re angry, or a spirit of lust or confusion, there’s a problem that needs to be examined. 

If it triggered some experience, memory or even some similarity to something you’ve lived that was unpleasant. It’s likely not of GOD. It can even be to keep you in a trap or state of being that’s out of alignment with who GOD says you are.

The truth is in GOD’s word. Who we are is in GOD’s word. We can stand on The Word of GOD to renounce the lies of satan and the “life we’ve always known”.

Receiving salvation and deliverance from the past is the new thing that GOD has done in our lives. We must stay close to The Father to thrive in the new life.

We have authority in The Most High! All of our authority comes from GOD.

Prior to the sacrifice of our Savior Yeshua, the Levitical priest had to do a different type of sacrificial and anointing process back in the day:

And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD:  And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering:” - Leviticus 14:16-17

Notice they anointed the bigger extremities of a persons hands and feet. Our right thumb and index finger, right ear and big toe. can possibly denote us being cleaned by The Most High and utilizing our authority in Him!

We have the authority to proclaim the new thing that GOD speaks and declare it in our lives. If GOD said it, it is so.

We can renounce the old things and come into agreement with the new. When we receive Yeshua, we have a NEW covenant with GOD.

We can be made new and repent and we can wake up from a dream and renounce!

Even saying The Lord’s prayer is coming back into covenant and agreement with The Father:

Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come. Your will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

which is to say: ‘I honor You, You are The Most High, and I’m coming into agreement with Your will only.’

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

which is to say: ‘Please keep me in alignment with You and nothing that’s against You. All the power and glory is Yours alone, eternally.

If you’ve had a bad dream, it is possible to “rise and shine” it may have to come after you “Wake Up and Renounce”.

The same GOD who sees us is the GOD that causes us to see a new thing and deliver us in the wilderness.

Resilience Is from GOD's glory

If we look back at all the things we’ve overcome and even how we handle the things we’re going through, it can be attested that we’re resilient, or we’re strong in the face of trials.

The word says there will be trouble in this world, but it’s The Most High who has overcome the world. When we’re in The Most High, we have the ability to overcome The World.


I talk about this more in the short video (below)


To find strength when we need it the most, to find love in a hopeless place, or to get even a little bit of life in a place that seems desolate, barren, and lost . . . these are miraculous things to witness.✨


Somebody may have said at some point in life: “There’s no hope for you”.  .  . you may have even thought that about yourself at one point, but for us who believe, we have great hope.


This is hope we would never have without GOD's Word.


Scripture says, we have GOD's most precious glory in “earthen vessels” i.e. in us.


The beautiful light of GOD through Yeshua is in His chosen ones.


Wherever GOD's people are, light is.


We become the light of the world that can't be hidden, when we receive The One who gives us The Light.

Friday

Trust The Holy Spirit

 


By Yeshua, John The Baptist was referred to as a burning and shining light, by the people he was regarded as a Prophet.

John was a witness, and his witness was verified as true. The Testimony of The Messiah is the spirit of prophecy

Although, as humans our natural flesh doesn’t readily honor spiritual truth, John was filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother’s womb

As with Peter “Flesh and Blood” didn't reveal the truth of who The Messiah was to John. It was revealed by The Holy Spirit. 

When we receive The Holy Spirit, we receive power and revelation that fully triumphs over darkness. It helps us navigate difficult times and exercise faith.

In Faith we see the things that are unseen. We’re no longer blind, or walking in darkness.

Because darkness and light can’t coincide, we can shine as children of Light in this life and the Kingdom that’s coming.

May we continue to serve as light in dark places for all generations!

Thursday

The Lord Will Shine On You

Your Breakthrough is here, your clarity is here, your peace is here, your release is here, everything you need to get you through the hard times has arrived.

Imagine suffering, waiting, being tried, tested, proven, prepared . . . all of the processes in our path, lved the moment The Father shines the least bit of light in our direction.

Everything must bow when Abba steps into the room.


The Word says that GOD inhabits the praises of His people, (Israel). Abba is The Holy one of Israel. This is the Israel, formerly known as Jacob, who struggled with GOD and man prior to becoming Israel.


Where GOD is, victory is.


If you consider yourself a child of The Most High, often times we don’t look like what we've been through, because Abba's light and favor has shined upon us.


We’re renewed day by day. We glow different. We brag different, because GOD gets all the glory!


We reflect our Father, and it causes our faces to shine. Keep looking to The Father, He will keep revealing His glory. He is the Dependable GOD!

Let The Redeemed Come


If The Lord is our GOD, Leader, King and True Shepard, but we're not seeking Him to lead, not even paying attention to what he's doing, but instead doing our own thing, this makes for a dysfunctional relationship.

Fully belonging to the Redeemer, means fully following Him.

Do you claim The Lord as your redeemer? More importantly do you know Him to be that?

If so, then you're invited to come. Come into His presence with thanksgiving, come making a joyful noise, come with true worship, with your *whole heart in it. 

Let us seek, worship, and pray to The Lord *in Spirit and in truth. 

As His children, as His beloved and redeemed let's make sure we're listening for His voice.

May we seek and obey The Divine Shepard we belong to*, today and everyday.

Don't hide, don't be afraid of the power of GOD, come in.

*Jeremiah 29:13, John 4:24, John 10:27

Sunday

Our Father In Heaven

Your Father chooses to give you . . .

Your Father chooses to give you . . .

Your Father chooses to give you . . .

Our Father in Heaven, The Creator of all living, chose to give us life in an eternal kingdom. The Kingdom resides within us when we accept Jesus Christ.* When we hear the word we know it, we feel it. It resonates with us. 

Affirm to yourself  if you have to, tell yourself regularly: You are a child of GOD and GOD is your Father. Say it out loud.

Trust that Father knows best, and wants the best for you.

The Lord is a good, good Father. Not only does the truth resonate with us, if we truly review our lives in retrospect there is something there to praise GOD for. 

Another benefit of sonship is that any questions we have about the the things we deem, not so praiseworthy, we can go to The Father with them. The clarity of The Lord is sweet like direction from The Lord. 

Pray much. Pray without ceasing*

"Where there is much prayer, there will be much of the Spirit; where there is much of the Spirit, there will be ever-increasing prayer."*

As we are led by the Spirit of GOD,  We are the Children of GOD.* 

Fear not little flock, the Shepard leads as a Good Shepard* and a great Father.

May we seek The Father first, before we ever face the fear.

 

* Luke 17:21, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Romans 8:14-17

* Quote by Andrew Murray

Friday

Dependable G-d

GOD will get us out of and or protect us from trouble. Even if it's trouble we got our own selves into. Just like GOD fights for us, The Lord defends us in situations. 

A defender is so important in this world we live in. The Lord is our deliverer and our defender. 

He knows those who take refuge in Him. Spending time with our Father as Children of GOD, leads us to know that we can run to Him in times of trouble.* He knows us and we can get to know Him.

The closer we seek to get, we can begin to know that He's our refuge and stronghold, so we come to Him intentionally.  

Before the trouble, during, and after The Lord is good all the time. On our perceived good days and bad days, The Lord is faithful.



Like a fortified city. We know where our help comes from, all we need to do is look up.*

May we be prayerful and knowledgeable of our GOD continually.

Dependable God - Victor Thompson

* Proverbs 18:10, Psalm 121:1-2

Thursday

Now Behold The Lamb

 

Now Behold The Lamb who is the Holy King. To those who believe He is our Shepard. 

Have you ever seen a sheep fighting against anyone who's tried to harm it or take it captive when the Shepard was around?

No. The Shepard does that. The Shepard is the protector. The Shepard is the caregiver. As children of GOD, we don't just have any 'ol Shepard. We have a Good Shepard*. He loves us so much that when we go astray, He delivers us, not only that "He lays down His life for the sheep". 

The Lord fights for us. He desires deeply that lost souls are recovered. When we're found to be in Christ after being lost in the world, all of heaven rejoices!*

The elders use to sing "GOD will fight your battles if you just be still". When we look to The Lamb: Jesus Christ that GOD provided for us, we're truly redeemed.

Born into sin that we may live again, that's a love that surpasses anything that could try to distract us or come against us.

It's the most powerful love, that we may not understand, but when we yield to it . . . our lives are saved.

May we forever keep our eyes on the life saving, life giving Lamb.

"Now Behold The Lamb" - Kirk Franklin, The Family

You Have A Promise Of Safety

 

HaShem, one of the names referring GOD, His name being too Holy to be spoken.

"Hashem is a Hebrew term for God. Literally, it means “the name.” In the Bible the Hebrew word for God is made up of four vowels, and according to tradition it was only pronounced on Yom Kippur by the High Priest. Saying God’s name was considered a very serious and powerful thing, so much so that one of the Ten Commandments prohibits us from saying God’s name in vain. As a result, people have come up with various substitutions."*

The name of The Lord is Holy. When we run to the name of The Lord we're running to a sacred place, a place where not just anything can run behind us. Not everything can enter the most holy place or The Most High's Presence.

The righteous, who have The Spirit of GOD in their hearts can. As the children of GOD when we run to name of The Lord we're protected. We're safe from the things that have no place in the presence of GOD.

The Lord told Abraham, that if he found fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, he wouldn't destroy the city.*

To be righteous is considered by some as being "in right standing with GOD". Righteousness is a position that we can choose to be in, it's one we can work to be in. It's certainly one that we're protected in.

As children of GOD, we can come to know our Father more, when we know our Father more we'll know that we can run to His Holy name, amongst other sacred things that are revealed to us in the covenant we have.

May we seek to live in the safety of The Lord continually.

More Are For You Than Against You | 2 Kings 6:16

 “Do not be afraid,” Elisha answered, “for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” - 2 Kings 6:16

Don't be afraid, more angels are with you than there are demons against you. Stand with GOD. It may look like you're surrounded, but you're surrounded on all sides by the angels of The Lord. GOD is a covenant keeping GOD, and so The Lord of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is with us to protect us when we receive Him.

Take hold of this word from The Lord today.

Righteousness, Faith, Love, and Peace Be With You

The Kingdom has it's own agenda and it's own design. This world may celebrate striving for "the pursuit of happiness", even some believers may get caught up in the prosperity gospel, but the Kingdom isn't about food, drink, house, clothes, cars, money or bling, It's about surrendering our hearts to the King of kings. The amazing thing is that true peace is born in surrender.

In the Kingdom there is joy in the Holy Spirit and peace that surpasses understanding. The peace that surpasses understanding brings joy with it and far exceeds happiness, because happiness is temporary, joy is everlasting.


Seeing GOD is the blessing. Seeking the Kingdom first causes us to live from a place of fullness, not emptiness. Seeking The Creator's will first and foremost makes us complete.


When we ask in Christ, we receive. GOD's will be done, on earth as it is in heaven, because when we see it, we can walk in agreement with it. May you go before The Lord in Spirit and in truth, and always call on Him from a pure heart.
