NO LONGER CRIPPLED,,written by J.E. Sturdivant
this is a book that really opened my eyes to a lot about life's failures and how to get back on then track that God wants us to be on ,,and off the Track that the devil has placed us on..
God is not a talkative ,he never waiste words,when he speaks it is done,,however when God repeats himself it is only for emphasis,,So when you hear VERILY VERILY I SAY it means that he wants to get your attention,,when God mention something thrice,,he is really trying to get your attention,,he said be strong three time's to Joshua,,Joshua 9:6-9
Affliction is only valuable when we have learned from it then it becomes our teacher,,this is our advantage in the misdt of dis-advantage
Acts 20:9 here is a man lambed from his mothers womb,,can we imagin being carried for nine months and bibng taking care of by that mother and then struggle to get out and then have to struggle in life? soon as he came out of his mother something went wrongand he became lame.life has a way of breaking you while your struggling to live some has been crushed emotionally,mentally,physically ans psychology CRIPPLED,,but God can squeeze the stuff out of us that life placed in us ans in result of that we surround ourselves with people like us,,and there is more unity in streetgangs than the church because streetgangs accept short commings and church folks act like it dont exist,,NOTHINGS WRONG with them!!!
POSITIONED BY PAIN
People find themselves in strategic spots where they need some one to enable them,being co-dependant,relying on others,lowering there standards,,EVEN accepting mental ,emotional and verbal abuse just to keep someone in there life cant make a Concrete decision because the pains of life,,looking down ones family line,,no one stayed married,every one had some sort of addictions of some kind no one has went to college as well as children being abandoned,and that can lead to some waiting for someone to validate them friends are limited they can only take us but so far
MIND SET EFFECTS MY MOVEMENT
God has allowed us to arrive at a Pivotal point in our life where we are about to go into something and come out of something,,either your ready to stay in or come out,,God want you to come out but the devil has his hand on your mind that you dont want or dont think that one can come out,,do you remeber the Cinderella story?? her situation did not change until her mind changed,,when she seen the beauty in herself and someone wanted her then her mind changed,,,,GOD IS SAYING IN ORDER TO GO INTO YOUR PROMISE THE MIND MUST CHANGE FIRST
GOD WILL HELP YOU MAKE THE CHANGE
not going to work with what I lost,But what I still have,,God is NOT going to maximizing the area of your deficiency and minimizing the area of your strength the area of your life that was broken IS NOT IMPORTANT TO GOD,,it is the area that still has STRENGTH is what he wants to work with

Minister Hancock as always your message is that of an exceptional writer/journalist. They are not only inspirational but also educational and informational. There is hope in your messages. Sometimes there is something in the topic that might be undesirable to confront but you always present the reader with the choice of renewing, restoring and redemption if we read, study, meditate and obey the “Living Word “of God. Thank you for spreading the gospel.
