The Next Step

Most times God uses the least expected person to set His plan in motion for your life. Sometimes we get so caught up in our expectation of others that we missed what God is trying to do. You know what I'm talking about, we get angry when the person we expect to show up for us but don't. We get angry when a family member or friend who has the “key” to the door we want to get in still they refuse to open the door.  We develop an entitlement complex. Because we believe that they should give us what we want when we want it, and how you want it; without considering whether or not God desires for them to be a part of His plan for us. God does not share His glory with anyone. Therefore, He will not allow anyone to assist you who will try to take His glory; nor will He allow you to see anyone else as God in your life.  He alone is God.

Carried Away

Many of us are being carried away with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting and being tossed to and fro because of spiritual malnutrition.

This governing body: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, and Teachers are

Weighing in the Balance

When the fear of God is not in the heart of the people, they will call evil good. In Exodus chapter one, Pharaoh commanded the Egyptian midwives when the Isralite women give birth kill every male child, and if it is female save it alive, but the midwives feared God and did not do as the king commanded them. (Exodus 1:15-17). The times might have changed but the same evil is prevailing. Every day we hear through media, from Christian's and non-christians alike bashing and calling President Trump evil because he does not line up with their ideal of an American President. Yet, this man is one of the few in authority who has the fear of God in him to know that it is ungodly to have the life of new born babies weighing in the balance. We can no longer allow our preferences to blind us from standing up for truth according to God's word. We are in a battle for life, both physical and spiritual. When Pharaoh gave the command to kill the male child being born, it was out of fear
