REGAIN

Regain your focus

Regain your peace 

Regain your joy

It's time to regain what you've lost or put aside.

Be lead by God, the Bible says, " the steps of a good man are ordered by God." Psalm 37:23

Don't allow emotions and things to push you off track for what is happening now. There are some amazing things unfolding as we speak. There is a peace in the air that defines trust in God. When you've done all you can, stand. Ephesians 6:13. It's time to stand in peace and embrace this journey ahead. You've made it this far to see this season . You may have felt exhausted, lost, and very emotional last season but you will be rejuvenated. You will regain. Remember, you didn't choose God, he choose you. John 15:16. When you're chosen everything has to work for your good because the plan was already established before you begin to walk this journey. Romans 8:28. So smile, relax, keep your peace. The amazing God we trust and know will finish what He started in all of our lives. Philippians 1:6.

It's time to regain.....look again. You're right where you're supposed to be....in God's plan.

"IF" He said it.....

"If" God said it, He'll do it. Don't be thrown off by what you see if things are not exactly how you desire now. God is a promise keeper. When He gives His word, he gives himself. When God gives a promise, it's his job to ensure it's fulfilled. Don't get in the way by trying to make things happen the way you think they should. Seek God for directions and in HIS timing he will give you instructions. When God gives the promise, believe it, then you shall receive it.

Please don't let anything make you stop believing.

Remember, it can be the darkest right before sunrise.

Psalms 32:8
Genesis 22:16

Truth:

If you trust God then let him handle it. 

If you believe His word then don't doubt him.

God knows what you will encounter before he gives a promise.

He's seen the end to the beginning so know he's faithful.

When you cast your care on Him, it's his responsibility to fix it.

If you keep your cares you're telling God, no I can handle it.

God specializes in the impossible so never lose hope.

Just know, if you have an issue, God is equipped to deal with it.

The bottom line is:  trust God and let Him do His job. He's more than capable.

Distractions

Distractions can be a sign as to where your priorities are. We should stop and reflect on what's distracting us in life so we can make the necessary adjustments to prioritize correctly. If you've ever noticed yourself going in the same cycles in life over and over with no desired results, it's time to ask yourself what is the underlying factor that has contributed to this. Be honest with yourself. If you've noticed you've changed for the worst after getting a certain job or after someone new entered your life, reflect now to ensure you don't stay off course. 

Never lose hope if your priorities are out of whack and order because reading this now can  help you make the decision to do better. We can have little distractions or big distractions but we should understand no matter the size, you have the power to rid of them.  Each day can be filled with distractions that try to keep you from moving forward but stay focused you can stay on course. If something is keeping us from staying on course, something has to change. We know that God is a wonderful God and doesn't want us to miss out on any opportunity that he has for us but we should keep our focus right with God. As we trust God and keep our focus right then we'll notice the previously things that distracted us is not such a struggle. We should also keep our minds restored daily to assist us in staying on course. 

So keep smiling, you can do this, don't give up, and remember in all things to keep your joy :)

Fear for what?

With God on our side, who shall we fear. There is more with us than against us. We can't forget that God is with us and that His promise is we are kept in all of our ways. Psalm 91. I want to write this post to encourage you all, including myself, to not allow fear to stop you from living. God knew what would happen on a daily before we did. Nothing is a surprise for God. There is always a way of escape for what we face. We must know that we have to use the tools that God has given us to stand firm daily. We have to keep spreading the love of God, keep speaking the word of God, keep praying, and keep being the light God created for us to be. This battle isn't ours but it's God's. Our job is to stay in agreement with what God has already established and spoke in this earth. There is no reason to fear, the Bible says the earth is the Lords and the fullness in it. We gotta keep trusting God and know that we have a Father that cares for us and that got us covered. We may not understand everything but one thing is for sure, that God is real. 

So keep smiling and keep showing others who God is. This world needs something authentic, they need God, show them who our Father is through your love.

Psalm 24:1

Romans 10:9-10

Much love and peace,

Choose life

As many know a lot of unexplainable things may be happening in the world right now. We don't need to move in fear but we need to keep trusting God through it all. We must make sure our foundation is right and that our hearts are open to Jesus.

If you don't know Jesus and want to get to know him, pray this prayer:

Father, forgive me of my sins. I want to live for you. I believe that Jesus is Lord and accept Him as my Lord and personal savior. Come into my heart and make me new. 

If you said that prayer, you now can experience  eternal life and get to know Jesus on a more personal level.

Stay focused, no fear, and keep God first.

Romans 10:9New International Version (NIV)

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Deuteronomy 30:19New International Version (NIV)

19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live

Indecision

Be bold and full of courage to make decisions that are good for your future. Don't get stuck in being indecisive that you end up stagnant for months and years. Learn to trust God and hear what he tells you in order to make sound decisions to see the greatest results you've ever experienced. 

The time is now to experience greater and fullness, overflow, in our lives more than we've ever experienced before. We are now living the results we've been praying/declaring about and more manifestation of God's promises are releasing now. A lot of things may be going on in the world but know it's our time to flourish to rise to greater levels. 

We can't afford to lack confidence to make the right decisions in life. Expedient results will happen as we make the decisions we've needed to make for a long time. Watch and see. 

It's time. No more indecisiveness. Psalm 37.
