Rise Up out of Galilee!

John 7:52 They answered and said to him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and look, for no prophet has arisen out of Galilee.”

As we read in the Bible, it says that nothing good can come out of Galile, and now it says that no prophet has arisen out of Galile.

Have you ever wanted to do something that has never been accomplished in your family or city before?

Do you have a desire to have a college education and be the first to obtain a degree in your family? Do you have a desire to start a business, or go into full time ministry? One of the things we wrestle with is the “it has not been done or accomplished before.” That may be true, but it does not mean that it’s not possible.

What desires or goals do you have? Has it ever been accomplished before? If not, then be the first to do it. Nothing is impossible with God, and when we put all things in His very capable hands, and remove the limits from our own mindset, then as they say, the sky is the limit.

Go ahead, be the first to obtain your goal, and remove the blockages that surround you . Rise up out of Galilee. Nothing is impossible with God.

Can You Speak like this Man?

24 May

John 7:46 The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this Man!”

Jesus was know as the carpenters son. It was not until he began to fulfill His ministry that he was later called Son of David.

For the Pharisees to mention that no man ever spoke like the man, they must have been impressed with his vocabulary and the way Jesus expressed Himself. The same was said about the Apostles. The Bible says that the Apostles were unlearned. But because they had been with Jesus and spent time with him, they learned to speak just like him.

Have you ever been tongue tied, at a loss for words or difficulty in expressing yourself? The solution is simple. Spend time with Jesus and the word, and soon your speech will become eloquent and full of flavor.

Ask the Lord for clarity when you speak, minister or preach, and He will do it. Let others begin saying how awesome you are when you minister, and how powerful your words are.

Our words are powerful and sharper than any two edged sword. May we use our words to edify the Body of Christ and bring people closer to Jesus.

Be blessed in Jesus Name.

Words That Brings Curses and Not Blessings

14 May

James 3:10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.(NKJ)

We have all probably heard and read the dangers of the words we receive. Words spoken over us can either bring us a curse or bring blessings.

But what about the words that we speak? Did you know that what we say can cause an open a door for a curse to operate in our lives?

We may say that we don´t curse, but the enemy is very subtle. Did you know that just by saying negative things about another person can bring a curse upon you you?

As children of the Lord, every word that proceeds from our mouths should be words of encouragement and exhortation. We ought to lift other people up, even when everything points the wrong way.

In some circumstances that can be difficult. But Jesus always finds something good about us, and I am sure we can too.

If we stop and think, I am sure the Lord can bring to our memory some negative words we have spoken over someone.

The good news, Jesus of course! If we have ever said anything negative about someone, we can always break those effects that have come over us in His mighty and powerful name.

To break the curse, simply ask the Lord to remove the curse of the words that you have said and receive his abundant blessings to flow in your life today.

As you break the effects of those words, blessings will begin flow into your life.

Be blessed in His mighty name.
