Some of us take a lot of pride in who we are, the title we have, the position we are in, the amount of money we have blah blah blah. We love to make ourselves seem more important than everyone else. But in Romans 12:3-8 Yahweh, through the writing of  Paul is teaching us two key things.

  1. The first is found in verses 3 - 5. Think highly of yourself, but not too high.
  2. Use the gifts Yah gave you, found in verse 6-8

OK let's break this down starting with Romans 12:3 - 5. We are talking about humi

SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES OF SUCCESSFUL WOMEN

1. In everything you do, always put GOD first.

Many of us have a habit of putting other people first or putting ourselves before anyone or anything. This is what we are taught to do, but it is incorrect and it is damaging. Eloihim must always come first. Everything you do, whether at home or the workplace you must do for him. He comes before your spouse, your boss, your children, your customers. If you put GOD first, all

The Behavior of Women

 

Titus 2:3-5 teaches us how women, both younger and older, should act. And to be honest it is in direct contrast of we see in the home, workplace, classroom and community today. First lets discuss our older women. Older women are to be reverent and pure. They are to be set apart for the world in thought and behavior. They should only move and speak in the spirit of holiness and be focuses on sacred things. Older women should be pious

The Black woman in America is in bondage and we allow Satan to keep her that way. African Americans will not rise until the Black woman is brought back to life. After the Civil War the chains came off but today we still are not free. No our wrist and ankles are not chained but our minds are. To the men reading this, we must learn to show our women, our sisters, our mothers the proper respect. God created man to be the stewards over all creation. To show disrespect to the gift

On May 22, 2015, a woman Minister of God referred to men as containers bought by a woman whose contents are not known at the time of purchase. On arrival at home, opening of the containers reaveal the true contents. She said some women found beverages in their containers. Some women found sand in theirs; while many women found granite. Discoveries of women after marriage differ in respect of the true contents of their men. 

This is true.

The Woman Who Fears the Lord

Genesis 2: 21- "so the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 - And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man."

There's one important reason why women are celebrated DISCIPLINE!

When God took out one rib from Adam and that rib which was placed into a woman was discipline. Many women don't know this, but women are the most discipl

"But now we have been released from the Law, having died to that which we were bound, so that we serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter." Rom.7: 6

There are Christians who sometimes seem a bit too eager to point out that believers aren't under the Law. They're now under grace. In their minds, the Law has been abolished. I propose that most often this statement is offered as justification for not keeping God's Law in its entirety.

I sense it is for

Ephesians 2:10 (NKJV) 
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them".

God's original plan for mankind was for us to enjoy life and have fellowship with Him and to partake of His blessings. He designed the world so that we would enjoy our life on earth for eternity.

It was a Paradise, a perfect, exquisite and lush garden filled with all manner of God's special treats and every tree was unique in its s

When Wickedness Goes Unpunished

There is a popular saying in legal circles that goes something like this: Justice delayed is justice denied. Sometimes the guilty, after being tried and condemned by the judicial system, tries everything possible to delay or frustrate the penalty imposed. In some countries the murderer can live as many as 20 to 30 years on death row before the sentence is carried out. 

In some cases the bold attempt by the guilty is not to diminish deserving punishment but to avoid it all

Created in God's Image and Likeness

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness" Genesis 1:26-27 (NIV)

What exactly does it mean to be made in God's image and likeness? "Image" and "likeness" are actually similar yet distinct terms. I believe they are complementary and better define the passage's meaning.

An image of something is duplicative in nature. For example, statues are made in the image of a person. A likeness does not convey such preciseness. To be like someone means you possess many, bu

Steps to becoming an overcomer: 

1. Realize that God will see you out of every battle that comes your way.
It may not "feel" like it at first, but God is waging war with His heavenly hosts on your behalf. Your job is to remain in prayer and faith as the victory comes.

2. Don't react to what the enemy is showing you or telling you.
The enemy will use anyone, including people in your family. Take every matter into prayer, but do not react to what is shown to you or spoke

Before I begin, I'd like to say this: no matter who you are, or what you believe in (or don't believe in), I hope you stick around, because I'd like to share with you what God's placed on my heart, and what He's been doing in my life. And hopefully, you'll be blessed, encouraged, and inspired as you read this article. 

The world is filled with an abundance of information concerning the importance of loving yourself. And the reason why--because it's true, and very essential, if

Since we are all part of the human race, we have inherited the sin of the first individuals God created. Because of our sin nature, we are separated from a holy and perfect God and are in need of a way back to our creator, so that our sins can be forgiven and we can experience eternal life with Him in Heaven and live a life filled with His Holy Spirit while on earth. God sent his one and only son, to shed his blood and be crucified on the cross to pay for our sins and when we

Do you suffer from feelings of inferiority and insecurity? A lack of self-esteem can prevent you from living a fulfilling life and accomplishing your God-given destiny. Fear is at the root of low self-esteem. It is a tool used by the devil to stop you from being effective as a Christian and it manifests as depression, confusion, indecisiveness and lack of faith. Low self-esteem comes as a result of focusing on the wrong thing. If you choose to focus on negative circumstances-th

What is "Spiritual Warfare?" In general, spiritual warfare is the "conflict" betwen good and evil. It is the ongoing battle between two diametrically opposed kingdoms: God's and Satan's.

We all, no matter who we are, how much money we have, how much education we have, where we live, how religious we are - we all deal with spiritual warfare.

We are in spiritual warfare in our homes, in our relationships, our marriages
