Women, You Are Significant!

"The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;  That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,  To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed."
Titus 2:3-5 KJV

You Are Beautiful and Strong!

"7 The things God showed me were so great. But to keep me from being too full of pride because of seeing these things, I have been given trouble in my body. It was sent from Satan to hurt me. It keeps me from being proud. 8 I asked the Lord three times to take it away from me. 9 He answered me, “I am all you need. I give you My loving-favor. My power works best in weak people.” I am happy to be weak and have troubles so I can have Christ’s power in me. 10 I receive joy when I am weak. I receive joy when people talk against me and make it hard for me and try to hurt me and make trouble for me. I receive joy when all these things come to me because of Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Cor. 12:7-10, NLV

Woman you are the most precious creation in all the earth. Created to birth and bring forth nations, but you have become your ruin!  Now why did I say that?  Well, let's look at the many ways we as women have degraded ourselves or allowed others to degrade us:

-we as women have cosmetically and aesthetically transformed our bodies to please others, more than our own selves.

-we have put down our own beauty wanting to transform ourselves into the picture perfect woman who appears to have no flaws.

-we have searched for love and acceptance in all the wrong places, devaluing our worth just to be in relationship with men, some of us women, that did not desire our time or energy because we did not love ourselves!

You lose power when others have the power to give value to your existence based on their need, desire or acceptance of you.

It is time to take your power back! You have the power to become strong again and that power lies in Christ! Draw close to him, let him love on the weak places in you through the word and prayer. Get around people that don't drain you of your energy, the people that have the ability to pour into you
by the Lords spirit and keep you encouraged. Who you are, the value that you hold, is lock up in your identity, which you can only find in God!

Flex your power Woman! You are beautiful and strong, full of Power and grace because God's power is in you!

You Are Beautiful and Strong!

I Present to You, Mr. & Mrs. Johnathan Givers?




"So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.” Matt. 19:6, ESV

Are You a "Giver?"  Is your Spouse a "Giver?".  Something to think about? The answer may be the reason you have had much difficulty in your marriage.  The above scripture says, "They are n longer two but one flesh." So, if you are a giver but your spouse is not there is already division.  I am not talking about financial giving at this moment, but that is also important, no, I am talking about having a selfless heart towards the person you love!

Marriage, a sacred covenant relationship that we all enter in knowing exactly what we are doing at times, but, after the I do and the honeymoon period (that ends quickly) we begin to question, "who is this ##!?&#@# I married?" When you don't get what you want, or you have unmet expectations. 

It has been my experience that when you enter marriage without discussing with your soon to be spouse your view or perception of what marriage is, from both of your perspectives, you are entering into a covenant with a dirt foundation that will waste away with the storms, test and trials.
It is important that you have the same mind and heart entering into any covenant relationship, Marriage most importantly or there will be more war than peace!

Don't let your Marriage become a chore or a death sentence when you become one of  those that feel your untitled to better treatment than your spouse because you go into it with an incorrect perspective.

"My wife is going to Waite on me hand and foot, I don't have to do nothing but work and pay the bills!"

"My husband treats me like a queen, I don't have to cook, clean or do anything but look good and he does everything else."

"You knew I couldn't cook when you married me!".  Just to name a few, and this is why the end abruptly in divorce.
Marriage is not about self-serving attitudes, nor is it a game of you give and I'll take! No, marriage is about both partners in this covenant giving and being givers to each other!

God has given us principles to live, love and give by that should be reciprocal, especially in marriage.
“So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets." Matt. 7:12

"Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over [with no space left for more].For with the standard of measurement you use [when you do good to others], it will be measured to you in return.” Luke 6:38

"Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.". 2 Corinthians 9:7 KJV

"But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.". 2 Corinthians 9:6 KJV

"I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive."
Acts 20:35 KJV

There are so many more scriptures and principles that I could share but I think you get the message.  If you  have the correct heart, there is nothing that you would not give or do to show your spouse that love, even when they don't.  It's not about doing to get, it's about doing just because the Bible says, " A good man out of the good  treasure of his heart bringeth forth good". Luke 6:45
So next time you are getting ready to complain about what your spouse didn't do for you, check and see that you have the right heart of giving. When we have two people with the right hearts, one always strives to out do the other because their desire is to be a blessing to their spouse always!
Be a giver, and give! Time, love , respect, compassion, special things, etc. Not to expect anything in return, and watch the impact of your giving in your marriage transform you and your spouse to Mr. & Mrs. Givers!

You Don't Have to Do It Alone!

"Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work."
Nehemiah 2:18 KJV

Ever get the feeling there is something aggressively opposing your very existence? Well, in reality, you had no opposition to your existence until you began to walk in the Lords purpose for your life.  Now that you have said yes to God, your circle has gotten smaller, you gained insight and wisdom and stopped sharing information with all of your friends because when you did, you found that they really weren't your friends at all!

Well, in light of all these revelations, You have decided to walk alone but, is that really the path God has set for you?  My answer is no! Some seasons in God you will have to journey alone or with a faithful few, but the Lord always brings people in line with the purpose and will he has for your life.
Like in this scripture above, in verses 10-17, Nehemiah had been given an assignment to rebuild not only the walls of Jerusalem, but to restore hope to the people.  His yes caused some snakes and vipers to rear their ugly heads to try and disrupt the purpose and plan of God, but Nehemiah, says the scripture,
 ".... arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem: neither was there any beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon."
Nehemiah 2:12

He got up at night with a "Few Men" and surveyed the assignment, calculated the situation in secret with only those he could trust.  See you are not required to perform the task God has given you alone, he has already prepared your help to bring his vision to pass.
Regardless what the naysayers and the critics have to say or think, do what you must in secret, but know that God has prepared your help so when you have calculated and wrote the vision, begin to cast to those that God has released you to and watch them "strengthen their hands for this good work."

It's A Set-up!

"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:  By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.  And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;  And patience, experience; and experience, hope:  And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us."
Romans 5:1-5 KJV



Are you growling, snarling  or frustrated this morning?  Just stop! Take a deep breath and focus. 
The kids are testing your patience this morning, your husband can't seem to find anything he needs to get dressed for work without you and "You" are partly dressed, running in circles ready to pull your hair out!
Did I paint a good picture?  Your days are mostly smooth and have a rhythm, but today is an out of the box day, but wait, the scriptures say, "tribulations worketh patience!" Get your patience back, your peace back by realizing everything, will not go your way, but it will go God's way. The Lord is setting you up, to walk in more compassion, more patience, and more peace.  You did not wake up on the wrong side of the bed......, God just decided he was ready to work on your people skills, and to give your character a tune up, so that you are more perfect than you were the day before.
Soo, breathe deeply, check your Heart's position, check your Mind, and get your spiritual perception inline with God, because the plan is set, God's love is all over you and he had set you up to bring him glory by transforming you through this test.  What do you do, rejoice! Be slow to speak, quick to listen and slow to get angry, hope in the Lord, because he is making you better!

You Are Inimitable!

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.  My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth."
Psalms 139:14-17 KJV



Welcome to the stage... the perfect, the incredible, the enlightening, the ORIGINAL.......... YOU!
Woman you are fantastic! There is no one  like you anywhere. They may dress like you, may try to look like you, but they can never be you.  You are the only you, there is one original, made from scratch. You are so divine that God considered your worth and decided he would fashion you in secret so that the secrets of your very creation are hidden and that a person desiring to know you intimately must first get to know your creator.
  
You were not a mistake, God knew what he was doing before your momma, even met your daddy, he had you in mind.  You purpose, your power, is woven in your very existence and you breathe in the very essence of creation itself. Do you not know?  Have you not heard, that the key to someone else's survival, healing, deliverance and breakthrough is wrapped up in the very purpose of your struggles!
Woman you were created to solve someone else's woes, so step over the test, into your triumph and lead others into their victory!

You are INIMITABLE! ONE AND ONLY!
