All honor and glory to God! Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow. Hallelujah, thank you Jesus! I'm listening to my Gospel station on Pandora, and I am just filled with the Spirit, Amen! Oh... you may not be filled with the Spirit at the moment, but open your heart right now and let God in. Take the time right now to count your blessings and send God the praise. True, your rent or mortgage may be due, your fridge may be empty, you may need a new set of wheels, or perhaps YOU just desire certain things are aren't in God's will for you at this time. Nonetheless, someone else has it worse, yet they can still smile because they know the Lord. Lift your eyes to the hills and call on Jesus, and then kick back with confidence, knowing that it's already worked out. Despite my many hardships, and my occasional bouts of pity, God has blessed me abundantly, with strength to brush defeat off my shoulders, and a phenomenal support system to help me get through my trials. God is so wonderful. WHEW! Hallelujah is the highest praise to our Father, say it aloud, Hallelujah Father! Continue to keep one another in prayer, thanking God for the victory, and refraining from claiming defeat from the enemy; ALWAYS pray for your desired result, NOT the unfavorable outcome. Do NOT lose sight of God in the midst of adversity, God Bless!

Passage James 3:5-8 (NLT):
"In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison."
Oh my, "Grateful" is playing, and it's so befitting for my mood right now, praise God! Tonight's passage is taken from The Message; "Some of you were sick because you'd lived a bad life, your bodies feeling the effects of your sin; You couldn't stand the sight of food, so miserable you thought you'd be better off dead. Then you called out to God in your desperate condition; he got you out in the nick of time. He spoke the word that healed you, that pulled you back from the brink of death. So thank God for his marvelous love, for his miracle mercy to the children he loves; Offer thanksgiving sacrifices, tell the world what he's done—sing it out!" (Psalm 107:17-22). Boy oh boy, yall know I keeps it 100 with yall, I'm a straight up hypocrite and sinner. I kid you not, there have been days that I had just sent off the SOD, and other times while I was composing the SOD, that I allowed someone to steal my joy to the point that the person typing the SOD looked totally different from the one affected by the adversary's antics. I can't even sit here and lie saying that I try my best to be better, because there are plenty of opportunities that I choose self and pray that God just give me another opportunity to find some "act right" the next morning. I fellowship with yall to spread the Gospel, to share my testimony that I am human and my choices in self have rendered unfortunate consequences, yet I am still God's child and He continues to bless me, because I am trying. However, I can do better and so can you. Together we live, we learn, and we need to help guide others come to that same conclusion. Why wait until you are in a compromising situation to call out on God? I have heard many of people who don't believe in God, or don't care to learn anything about the good Word, yet speak Jesus' name in vain, the same as they call on Him when they are at their wits end, or even ask believers to pray on their behalf. What good is prayer if you don't believe (have faith) that God will deliver? We were given the authority in our words to speak life or death into every situation, so unfavorable outcomes are a direct result of our lack of faith in God's ability to work through our faith-filled words. Despite our doubts and lack of faithfulness He still blesses us and forgives us, but what are we doing to bring honor to His name? ***Side Note: Fostering Mind, Body, and Soul Incorporated or FMBS Inc. Established 2012, is a non-profit organization with emphasis on providing complete sustenance to the body, hence the name. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer please let me know. Ministry will play the most significant role in my organization, and it helps us to share God's word while we give back to the community; reach out!*** I've told the story before, but let me tell it again. I totaled my car on New Years 2001, two blocks away from my parents' house. I passed out behind the wheel. Yet I walked away with a scratch on one of my fingers. By looking at my car however, you wouldn't have been able to tell that I suffered no injuries. An even more compelling story is about my cousin Sha'Ron and her daughter. She was driving on the freeway and someone hit her car. The car flipped several times, and yes, she was injured but was NOT debilitated, and her daughter suffered NO major injuries, praise God. I don't have a photo of my car, but I've attached my cousin's wreck, and when you see it you'll understand the depth of her being able to walk away with minor injuries and her baby being completely OK. One can only give honor to God. NO matter your circumstance, remember that things could be worse. Your testimony is essential to someone else's revelation and/or spiritual growth, share the Gospel. Repetition is the key to memorizing, and practice is pivotal to getting it right.
Prayer of the Day:
Father God we thank you for life, health, and strength. We thank you for granting us strength and restoring the faith in our ability to use our words to produce favorable outcomes. We thank you that we are redeemed, and are able to reverse the negativity we once spoke into existence. We deny the right of the enemy to exist in our lives, because you gave us that authority. We thank you for restoring the years that we've spent in tears Father God. We thank you for removing the heavy load that we once tried to carry alone. Hallelujah Father, we thank you that you are able. We thank you that despite our previous doubts, you gave us another opportunity today to get things right. We thank you Father for being everything we need, and for providing us with deliverance from my burdens. Father God we thank you for the ability to stand firm, even in the test of trials. We thank you for the discernment to know when the enemy is afoot, and for the strength to take control through our faith-filled words. We thank you that no weapon formed against us will ever prosper. We thank you for your continued blessings of protection, and we thank you for the peace that passeth all understanding. This is our affirmation of faith Father God, we submit to you in the name of Jesus, Amen!
