It was first mentioned in Genesis 6:5

"And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.



God desires to create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit in us. I heard from God himself, just like plenty of others I have talked with, that God is demanding a change in the hearts of His people this year in this season. It's a big demand that we are purified and renewed.… Continue

Read Matthew 4:1-11,



In court, when one takes their case before a judge against another concerning a deal or an agreement that went bad, a promise that wasn't fulfilled, some kind of trickery in a exchange, etc; you'll see the two involved in the case step into the courtroom with papers in their hand. They know that when they present their case to the judge that there will have to be some paper work involved in order for the judge to make their ruling. If there's no paper work,… Continue

I've sung this and prayed this. But until today I actually have a revelation of what this is actually saying.



In The Message Bible, Matthew 5:1 translates the "poor in spirit" in these exact words "You are blessed when you're at the end of your rope. With less of you, there's more of God and His rule."



I get it now. Do you see it? In order for you to have more of God, it demands less of you. You'll experience it if you haven't. When you get to a point where everything YOU… Continue

Psalms 36: 1-4

Transgression (the over stepping of moral boundaries) speaks to the wicked. Deep in their heart, there is no fear of God before their eyes. For they flatter themselves in their own eyes that their iniquity cannot be found out and hated. The words of their mouth are trouble and deceit. They have ceased to act wisely and do good. They plot trouble while on their bed. They set themselves in away that is not good. They do not reject evil.



If you know such a person and… Continue

There has been a part of me that has been covered with excuses, blames, just straight out hiding and masking who's responsible for where I am right now. Until recently. I was backed up against the wall by truth. I hated every minute of it, no lie. The bible says that the truth will set you free, but it's hard to stay free when you're own lies and denials has been working for you for sooooooo long. I couldn't even sleep. Ever since that encounter with truth, I have made the choice to finally… Continue

IN ALL SERIOUSNESS. God has allowed Satan to turn up the heat down here on earth. Point blank, whatever is going to cater to our flesh, our carnal man, is going to increase. WHY? Because Satan's desire has been that no man becomes closer in relationship with their Creator. So In order to prevent a closer relationship with God, Satan has turned the heat up on everything that he knows will direct us opposite of God's direction.



Well, why is God allowing Satan to do this? Proverbs 17:3;… Continue

Have you ever met someone who took everything literally.



One day a minister was trying to witness to a man who said that he doesn't believe in the bible anymore. The unbeliever said "I use to believe in the bible, but I don't now. I use to always hear people say 'The bible says this, the bible says that.' I use to get excited about it and believe. But I've tried it to many times and it just never worked for me".



The minister kept trying to convince him, "Sir, the Bible… Continue

This morning I woke up and I've been on this reading, praying, and meditating kick that even surpassed my own mind. I've been stuck in 1 1/2 chapters in the same book since I got up. It's not that I can't read or I have trouble understanding, but God has opened Himself up to me in these 2 chapters. Have you had your bread for today? I pretty much had bread and meat (spiritually).



That wasn't what I wanted to talk about, what I wanted to share was these 2 scriptures I heard inside of… Continue

I went in the fridge and saw something that grabbed my attention, "Tomatoe Jam". Nasty to some of you, right? The ingredients says "Sugar, Tomatoes, Water, Lemon Juice" and other things. Well being that I have a interest in trying new things I took it out. I got a small spoon and scooped it up to taste. It wasn't bad as long as it it was in the form of Sugar and the other ingredients. While still having this taste in my mouth, I broke out some bread and some butter and heated the oven up to get… Continue
