Have you ever noticed how we seem to shy away from having DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS? We seem to think that avoiding a conversation will make it go away, but it doesn’t, it just festers as we continue to hold onto it. Do you ever find yourself doing that? We can be…
Be careful that you don’t talk yourself out of your dream. Instead, talk yourself Into it! It’s YOUR dream, you don’t need to convince anyone else of it! Believe that you can do what you see in your dream. You are never any more like God than when you are…
Jealousy is when you find yourself in a situation where YOU BELIEVE that someone else has received what YOU should have gotten. It’s a miserable waste of time spending our days looking at what someone else has gotten instead of focusing on what God has blessed us with. Opportunity To…
Negative thinking will keep you from enjoying life. A negative person expects nothing off a silver platter except tarnish. I was watching television with my daughter a few years ago, and there was a lady on American Idol who didn’t win and during every interview, she was crying, every single…
We need to give God what is his and plant seeds above and beyond that. “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven…
My Dad started reading scripture about money, and he had a revelation. It wasn’t that money was the root of all evil, it was the love of money (1 Timothy 6:10). My Dad read that we reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7) and that the windows of heaven would pour…

Joseph went from the pit to the palace. Yes, he had God’s favor, but he also didn’t complain about his circumstances. He made the most of each one. He continued to praise God; he maintained his work ethic and integrity in each circumstance no matter how deep his pit looked….
When we apply Bernoulli’s principle to flying, the air speeds up over the wing, the pressure decreases and lift occurs. Consider, the opposite, when slowing down the reduced speed would cause an increase of the pressure above the wing and create a drop. When things are tough, we don’t need…
Jesus was a great example of living daily with a betrayer and not allowing it to affect his calling. Judas had ulterior motives, and there were signs. He had been selling Jesus out for a long time, but that didn’t stop Jesus. If we give a traitor enough rope, they…
