So, thanksgiving is scriptural. The more you think about this God, the more you engage in thanksgiving. When you think of how mindful He is...

Therefore, we...

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 (NKJV)   Today, I have come to let you know that as a child of God, you have been authorized to resist the devil.

“But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless, at Your word, I will let down the net.” And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking.” Luke 5:5-6 (NKJV)   In my walk with God, I have come to discover that one of the ways believers miss out on...

The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous;” Genesis 26:12-13 (NKJV)   In the book of Genesis 26, the Bible states that there was a famine in the land where Isaac was.

“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:” 1 Corinthians 2:7 (KJV)   Beloved, the best of men are still men, they have their limitations.

 “The sower sows the word.” Mark 4:14 (NKJV)   The Word of God is like a seed. Every believer is called to be seed sower. As seed sowers the Word of God is our seed. The Word of God is what we sow. Every time you speak God’s word, you are sowing seed. Every time you read God’s word, you are receiving seed into your spirit, the...

 “That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,” Ephesians 3:17 (KJV)   Jesus is not condemning us, so why condemn yourself. Stop that!
