Greetings Everyone,
All honor and glory to God! I know, I know, it's
been a while. I actually was on vacation and didn't get around to messaging
yall about my trip. Just a FYI, I am still struggling with sticking to a
consistent schedule that effectively balances my workload and includes
sufficient sleep, hence my inconsistency with the production of the SOD; I
either nap too long, or get caught up typing a paper due to procrastination as
a result of my severe lethargy. Anyway, I am working on it. I want to also take
this time to let those know, who may have extended a prayer request to me
during my absence, you were NOT forgotten. I did pray for every concern each
time your request entered my mind. I also have some unfortunate news, Darius
Person, whom we prayed fervently for as he sat in a coma due to walking
pneumonia, passed days after he collapsed at the tender age of 30. On behalf of
Antonio Montgomery, cousin of Darius, and their family, I extend a hearty
thank you and appreciation for your prayers; may God bless and keep his soul.
On another note, thank you to all those who have contributed to my non-profit
organization, FMBS Inc., by donating items for our troops. For those still
interested in working with my organization, please see the attachment for
specifics and contact me so that I can arrange a pick-up or drop-off for any
contributions. Thanks in advance. Remember to REFRAIN from praying
(confessing) the problem (unfavorable outcome), but ALWAYS speak (pray/confess)
the answer (desired result) into existence. 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."
"He said, 'If you will listen
carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight,
obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you
suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals
you'" (Exodus 15:26). Jesus was sent here not only to save our sins,
but by His blood, we ARE HEALED. My mommy sent me an email the other day
entitled, "Does God Exist?" It was about a customer who was at the
barber shop, who felt as though God wasn't real because in his theory, IF a
so-called loving God existed, then disease, poverty, and suffering would be
non-existent. The customer didn't want to entertain the discussion, because as
any person with a Christian faith knows, the Word warns that the road is narrow
- meaning, there is NO promise that being a faithful Christian is an easy task.
Anyway, when the customer left the shop, he saw a homeless man who obviously
needed a haircut and a beard trim. So, he went back to his barber and told him
that barbers didn't exist because if they did, the man outside wouldn't be in
need of a haircut. Now quoting the email directly, this is what happened
next... Barber: "Ah, but barbers DO exist! That's what happens when
people do not come to me." Customer: "Exactly! That's
the point! God, too, DOES exist! That's what happens when people do
not go to Him and don't look to Him for help. That's why there's so
much pain and suffering in the world." Now, don't get me
wrong, I am sure plenty of people pray to be out of their unfortunate
circumstances, but have they considered how or why they are in them in the
first place? Did they only turn to God as a result of these unpleasantries? Is
there a lesson to be learned? Are they praying as the Spirit leads, that God's
will be done, or are they praying with a selfish intent? God answers prayers
according to His will, and on His time. So if we have yet to see a desired
answer, it may be because it is NOT in line with the will of God, or perhaps we
have not willingly received the lesson intended from our current circumstance. Exodus 23:25 says, "You
must serve only the Lord your God. If you do, I will bless you with food
and water, and I will protect you from illness."
Prayer of the Day:
Father God we thank you for life, health, and
strength. We thank you for giving us back the strength and 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.
Today we deny the right of the enemy to exist in our lives. We thank you for
removing the heavy load that we once tried to carry alone. Hallelujah Father,
we thank you that you are able. Father God we come to you thanking you for
providing those mourning the death of Darius, with comfort and peace, as well
as others who may be experiencing the loss of a loved one. We thank you for
healing the sick and shut-in, and for reversing all negative health ailments
imposed on those in our circle; for recovery that the doctors deny, we thank
you for already providing. We thank you for providing those of us in need, with
immediate, specific, and complete clear revelations on the individual concerns
of our heart; you know our issues and we claim clarity and victory over defeat
in the name of Jesus. We thank you for the resourcefulness, effectiveness, and
efficiency of FMBS Inc.'s efforts within the local community, and extended
communities. We would also like to take this time to thank you for once and for
all correcting Tylesha's ability to adhere to a consistent schedule that meets
all of her needs, with regard to time, energy, spiritual, physical, and
emotional health, as well as her overall well being. We thank you for giving us
another opportunity today to strengthen our relationship with you. We thank you
for delivering us from past worries, struggles, pain, suffering, poverty,
stress, depression, confusion, and loneliness. 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, the strength to take control
through our faith-filled words, for your continued blessings of protection, and
we thank you for the peace that passeth all understanding. This is our
affirmation of faith, in the name of Jesus, Amen!
