RE-Ministries: Recent Episodes
Pele Bowling
Hello and welcome! Here on the show I will address the situation of crossover belief systems or combining our Christian beliefs with spiritualism and some instructions on what we should be doing/not doing. I promote a personal bible study life and how this will get us and keep us educated about God's plan for us. We need to personally re-educate ourselves from this world of faith-based beliefs that medicates us not educates us about God. Risk management for believers, so lets' get started!
What does God say about widows and orphans? This is a group of people that we need to pay special attention to. If you feel called to help in a big way make the move to do so. As for the rest of us if we see suffering we need to attend to it not close our eyes and say it is someone else's job to help. Stay blessed!
What are we doing with our zeal, our excitement for Christ and God's word? Are we moving or are we cradling this life-giving light in our arms, keeping it to ourselves? William Booth is a great example of a man who bled Christ, he carried out God's mission for him and in this video, I will talk about this incredible vision he had. Please read his writing about this vision! If it doesn't impact your heart and makes you want to move and shine the light of Christ on others I don't know what will, besides the Bible that is. Stay blessed! Read about William Booth's vision here... https://www.whatsaiththescripture.com/Stories/A.Vision.of.the.Lost.html
How do we know or how can we tell who is who when it comes to the spirits that are in the teachers who are teaching us? It is simple when you have help and the Holy Spirit is the one who teaches all who walk with Him. God will send us the teachers we need and guidance to keep us from falling into the devil's snare. I fell into that snare and thanks be to God he sent me the Bible and to the people that would teach me things I never knew I would need to navigate this world. Remember there are other powers and spirits at work and they will come against you because you are either with God or searching for him. But don't fear God is greater than the ones trying to fool us. We are saved in Christ and guided by the Holy Spirit always. Stay blessed!
I don't mean to sound harsh in this episode so I apologize to those who may have taken offense at my tone. I do think I am a bit gentler in tone than God in the Book of Jeremiah. Stay blessed!
What can we say about this statement? There are so many out there interpretations, theories, and such, but I believe it boils down to these words. Be holy because I am Holy. Stay blessed 🥰
You have probably heard of the image of God in the scriptures but how about the image of the Word? When you look into the book of John right off the bat you are given the image of the Word. So if you look at the title of this video and match it up with the Gospel of John you know who the image of the Word is, the Word became flesh and dwelled among us. Stay blessed!
This is a topic of great debate among believers is this really true or is there no such thing? The generational sin or a generational curse, what does the Bible say? And if the Bible says it is not true then we know God is saying this. I first found this to be an untruth because I was led to Ezekiel 18 and in no uncertain terms God spells out to his people not to use this statement again. It is also mentioned in the book of Jeremiah. So how come we believe this statement? Simple, we don't read the Bible enough or our church leaders are keeping it from us to further their own agendas. God says to follow his commands to never let them leave our minds, to meditate on them night and day. That only happens when we read the Bible. So check out Ezekiel 18 and learn what you read in Exodus is not what God meant. The curse falls on the generations who HATE God, not those who love Him and obey him. Stay blessed!
New Series! How do we let go of the wheel and allow God to establish our footsteps? We will take a look at some living habits that we need to break and some we need a lot of help to establish in our lives. Stay Blessed! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRh9NG_H87Q&list=PLAhFi-fpiIJ3ZNpasvjsHT4BIvggJ55J-
What a book to start the spring off with! Since we are already awake in our woke culture we need a shake-up call!
This is what Jeremiah speaks to the people of Israel trying to shake them back to their senses. A book of judgment and hope of discipline and joy. God reveals his plans through his prophets and Jeremiah was one of the most celebrated prophets even though his actions and God's words did nothing to move the hearts of the people of Israel.
God works in all of us even when we don't want the job! Jeremiah picked up his prophet's mantle God set aside for him before his birth and did the hard job of speaking to self-centered people. At this time the nations warred against one another and He had to walk into these hostile areas and lay down the future plan God was sending!
Do you struggle with following the will of God? I believe we all do so let's take a look into Jeremiah's journey and the life he lead for 40 years speaking the words God placed in his mouth. Stay blessed!
Oooh, liar, liar pants on fire! How many times have you said or heard this rhyme? Have you ever told a lie or lied about someone just to get something out of the situation? That is false witnessing because, in the end, you are saying these things against God.
The worst is when we say "as God as my witness"! So let's look into Exodus 23 and read a little bit more about this unbreakable principle. Thou shall not LIE or bear false witness. Oh and wait til you hear about the first that I can remember lie I told. I was just 5 years old! Put the fire out and keep those tongues clean. Stay blessed!
Exodus 23:1-9
In this episode, I am sharing with you my story of being a five-finger discounter. Don't hate me and call me a sinner I have already been forgiven and am clean of this sin. So from a former thief's mouth let's discuss this unbreakable principle the 8th commandment. Thou shall not steal. Stay blessed!
On the Sunday episode, I talked to you about this principle that everyone in the world understands and shared my experiences being a thief too. I am reformed and redeemed no more 5-finger discounts! The recap discusses a few personal problems that can arise inside of you when you break this unbreakable principle. It breaks you back! So sit back and enjoy, and leave comments if you have been there too. We are all far from perfect but God loves us anyway! Stay blessed!

Physical relationships outside of marriage, porn, and against God Spiritual adultery. Have you committed any of these? I have since repented of this sin. Don't think you cannot be forgiven if you have done these things because Jesus says you can be forgiven. We can't turn back the hands of time but we can walk with our heads up, we have to put the shame we feel in the past where it belongs. Never feel unworthy after you have committed this sin and gone to God about it. Never stray into this area again remember not only is God watching but you are watching yourself self-destroy your life. Stay in love with God, and each other and love yourself too. Stay blessed!
Attention: I am not a mental health professional please do not take my opinions as medical advice. Seek out a mental health professional for advice and seek out God too.
Adultery. This a serious problem in the world and one that becomes accepted as an inevitable part of modern relationships. We just move on to another person and drop the old. What types of adultery are there? Let's take a look into this principle command and what God says about this topic. God's principles are simple and clear so we should follow the good rules and live well while we are here. Then we will exist in eternal blessed life when we are released from this one. Stay blessed!
Have you ever noticed when a bad habit starts sneaking back in? Does God point it out for you in a creative way? Well, on this episode listen to my epic fail that came back into play. Ugh, how does this happen? The devil loves to interrupt us when we get closer to God. Here is a great link on this subject. Enjoy and stay blessed!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tZh8ifhjw4&t=2832s
What does this commandment consist of is it really just not killing the body? I believe God had more in his mind when he wrote this one down. We can murder each other with words too. In this episode, I expand this command into the area of spiritual death and how we can lead others astray in ungodly belief systems. Yes, I said ungodly, if it doesn't line up with God's word that is what it is. So I hope you like the recap and if you wanted to catch the video the link is below. Stay blessed!

In this episode, I will talk a bit about how I feel these commandments and the fruit of the Spirit is to be combined, not separated. I also suggest checking out the Bible Projects' new series about biblical law on their podcast. No, I am not affiliated with them but they have great teachings. I hope you like this short and sweet episode and get some new insight out of it. Stay blessed!

Hi all! So this video is just a little bit more info on the basics we know about this command. Don't talk back, and don't make people think you might have been raised in a barn. You know simple stuff. Stay blessed!
Principle of commandment #5. How do we honor our parents? Do we just say we won't be mean to them, get into arguments or use profane language toward them? No, it is more than just that, let's take a look into this #5 command and why should we follow it. Here is a good article for you to read about this command. Stay blessed!

5 Command Exodus 20 "Honor your father and your mother so that you may have a long life in the land that the Lord your God is giving you"
I was surfing the web for more info on the Sabbath and kept seeing Jewish vs Christian on the subject, so I thought let's see what Jesus said. Not the disciples or apostles but Jesus himself. Indeed there should be no fight in this area of the ten commandments there are ten, not nine, and who doesn't want a day of complete rest? So praise the Lord of the Sabbath for the Sabbath day and don't argue with your brothers and sisters about who is right. God is right, end of story. Stay blessed!
Matthew 5:17-19 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever, therefore, breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. ( this does mean there are some commandments higher up than others but all must be obeyed.)
The Pharisees acted as if God had created people so that he would have someone to keep the Sabbath, but Jesus clarified that God had given the Sabbath as a gift to the people he had created (Mark 2:27).
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
Why do we have to keep the Sabbath? This is a tough one for many of us since we think it is just for the Jewish Community but it is not. Christians are supposed to keep the Sabbath.
Isaiah 56:6-7 Says to keep God's Sabbath he is talking about all nations, not just the Jewish peeps. I hope you get a new perspective on the Sabbath from the episode and read more about the Sabbath day too.
Stay blessed!
https://www.gotquestions.org/Sabbath-day-rest.html
Deuteronomy 5:12-15 ESV “‘Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter or your male servant or your female servant, or your ox or your donkey or any of your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
Oh, this is a law that many don't know the principle behind or really what it is all about. Using the Lord's name is like saying "by the honor of my family name, I will finish this mission" you have sworn an oath to uphold His honor, not just yours. So why do we use his name so easily? Because we probably don't know what the principle behind the Law is about. If you don't want anyone smearing your reputation by using your name then we should be just the same with our God. God cares for us we should do the same. Stay blessed!
No, no we can't take the Lord's name in vain! What is the principle of this? You might think I don't use his name in profane ways but it is a bit more than that. Here is a recap of the longer episode that lets you know in a nutshell what we are doing and how to fix this bad habit. Stay blessed!
In this recap, I am going to dig a bit deeper into what are idols and why. The book you will be looking into is the book of Jeremiah a great book with tons of information about how we fall prey to idolatry but also how the Lord loves us and will help those who truly love him. Stay blessed!
The principle of the second law God ever made for us is quite simple but so hard to follow for many since we want to SEE our god. We can't see God in the flesh or in person so we tend to follow man-made myths or idols that give us comfort in a tangible form. Of course when we do this not only are we hurting ourselves but most importantly we are hurting God. Homework is in Deuteronomy 4 happy reading! Stay blessed!

New episode! Vows, wow there is one vow I found in the Old Testament that has some enlightening aspects to it about Christian practices. Check it out and see if you can see what I see. Look into the Book of Numbers chapter 6 for the Nazirite vow! Stay blessed!

Have you ever wondered what has gone wrong with the church? I mean we have the instructions about the house of God. So why does it look so messed up? Well, God has a question for all of us remember we are temples too. Stay blessed!
To rebound is to bounce back from something or to spring forward after an event that may have caused you to stumble. We have all been in this situation once or twice, but thank God for the rebound. He gives us chances to get back up and go forwards to set things right or get things right. Moses is the example of a big-time rebounder in the bible from where he came from and what he accomplished that is a huge rebound, my friends! Say blessed! The life of Moses take a look into his faults and victories.
New Bite! Proverbs, lady wisdom is back in town, two verses in under 2 minutes dig in! Stay blessed.

Let's dig into those 5 areas that we should obey that will not just check the box for God but make us better people in the present and future. A wise person obeys the Lord and a fool loves to court danger. Obedience is gained through wisdom so let us be wise not in our own eyes and but to God obedience will come easy. I have a few resources for you to go to to get deeper revelation on these areas. I am not affiliated with these companies at all. But they are awesome so check them out. I hope you work at these 5 things and maintain them in your life! Stay blessed!

Obedience is such a heavy work filled with ominous commands. How can I be pleasing to God if I just obey and do I have to write my life away to obey Him? No, you don't, in this short episode, I will talk about 5 small disciplines we need to work on to become obedient to God. Yup, just 5 it won't even hurt much. Take a listen and challenge yourself can you do it? Just 5 things. Stay blessed!
Overthinking this topic is a big problem. Faith doesn't have to be difficult at all but we like to ask questions. Why should I grow my faith? Why should I believe in God? Why? Why? Why? I am going to recommend a few places in the bible that can show you struggling individuals and give you some resources to enlighten you on a few books in God's word that really have authentic faith through times of struggle in them. why have faith well, because when we have it God always keeps his promises to us. God promised us life and he will give it to us and all we need to do is have faith and believe in him. Simple but we make it so hard. Stay blessed!
I mentioned in the video that the prophet Habakkuk didn't speak to the people I need to correct that. Yes, he did speak to the people he was a prophet that is their job. But the book is more about him asking God why he isn't helping, not so much about his mission to the unruly people of Israel.

Hello everyone back to the 5 passions! Those spiritual practices and disciplines we should be passionate about. So today we are on #3 MEDITATION! What did you say? Yup meditation, it is all over in the bible so don't back away and be scared of it. There is a difference between Christian meditation and eastern practices. In this episode, I will talk about a few things I think are ok and what is fact and fiction about meditation in Christianity. Below you will have links to the sites I use to gather information on topics that I get drawn to. I hope you love the episode have a wonderful week! Stay blessed.

Here is a quick preview of the next episode about the 5 spiritual disciplines we should be passionate about. Enjoy!
What makes you more competent in your faith than studying the bible? Nothing. We need God's word not just for our spiritual growth but for our moral growth, virtues, disciplines, character building, and many more beautiful things our leaders don't teach us enough about or at all. It also teaches us how to spot fake teachers so we aren't fooled into their ways of life. There is so much love that goes into God's word it is for our training and edification to read this book. Stay blessed. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 English Standard Version 16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. biblegateway.com biblehub.com pray.com christianity.com 1 Timothy 4:7-8 English Standard Version 7 Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness; 8 for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
Prayer is the most important discipline to be passionate about. Look at your prayer life is it strong? If so good for you you are on top of things. Many newbies have no clue what prayer is and some oldies have no clue what prayer is! Why do we need it and why should we do it every day? Prayer is an inward connection to God. It is how we converse with him on a very intimate level. Prayer is an opening to let the Lord know what is going on with you and ask for anything for yourself and others. Prayer is a key to our spiritual existence and we need to have a passion for it. Why with passion isn't that a bit extreme? Be passionate about speaking to God because he is passionately waiting to hear from us. I hope you like the episode stay blessed!
Passion-an an intense desire or enthusiasm for something. a strong feeling or emotion

Do you think I am being harsh on the church? Well, I am not against the church or any other religion I support my own of course but I am not hating on the church. No, I haven't gotten any comments about this but I wanted to get it out there before I do get them. So news flash I love my church and the crazy people that attend it. Stay blessed!
Always listen to God when he speaks he leads us to wonderful places like the bible. Boooo many people say but that is because they may not have worked on these spiritual disciplines and become passionate about them. These led to God on a whole new level. So take a listen! Can you step up your game in these areas? Check out the book of prayers Psalms! Stay blessed!
Psalm 119:9-16
Judging others. Do you have an "I" infection? Are you about you and judge others based on the standards you have instead of God's standards? You may have something in your eye that needs some attention. We are taking a look into Mathew 7 how Jesus talked to the people and the teacher about this hypocritical issue they were having. Judgy peeps don't make happy peeps. So get your bible out and take a look at Matthew chapter 7 and be informed. Do you have an "I" infection? Stay blessed!
Get out your bibles and turn to 1 Corinthians chapter 14 and get ready for a good look into this real and alive gift. No, none of the spiritual gifts have stopped working or are out of use or dead. You show me where in the bible where God says that and I will believe you. Now in this book and chapter Paul is writing to the Corinthians about the problems in the church. He is pointing out areas where they have drifted away from God and are abusing the gifts and other things that are coming into the church that is not of God. So speaking in tongues has been abused and Paul is letting them know how to properly use this gift. Yes, people this still applies to these gifted people today. Don't go and make up your own instructions. God gifts people with certain gifts because he trusts us to make good use of them. Okay, chapter 12 has the list of gifts in it so take a look at those too. The problem in our churches today is they don't allow the spiritually gifted a platform to speak but the problem in Corinth is the platform was used for self-promotion, not God's truth. Unfortunately, that does happen today. This is not a good thing for the people of the faith. But God sent a person to edify and encourage proper use and working together and Paul was very good at speaking to people guiding them so they would listen to the Lord. If you have those bibles at the ready listen and read along as I speak. Stay Blessed!
1 Corinthians ch. 12, 14
The generational curse! I have heard of this curse in both Christianity and in the spiritualistic religions. But the truth is if you believe in the word of God a.k.a the Bible, you need to read Ezekiel 18. In that chapter, your truths about the generational sin God put upon his people will be shattered by God's own instruction to his people given generations later. If you have this belief still in your heart re-read Ezekiel 18. God doesn't curse those who have done no wrong. This is how God gets a bad wrap because many Christians don't know this piece of scripture or have not been told about it. This is why some people believe God is a mean God because of this generational curse in the Old Testament but the people even then didn't understand what God was saying. God blesses those who are right and just those who love him in all generations. But if you practice evil things and do wrong, you bring the curse down upon YOUR head and yours ALONE. The cursed generations are the ones who keep following the generational HABITS of their fathers. If it goes against God's commands don't do it! I hope you like the episode! Stay blessed.
Ezekiel 18
This is a big question but with straightforward answers and we know the steps to take most of the time to make the change. Get back to the basic foundation builder, the Bible. Now we want to start our spiritual change always with God and Christ because that is where everything began in the first place. Reading God's word will always direct you into life-changing attitudes with His life-creating instructions. James, who is Jesus' brother writes about how we can listen and yet easily forget to take action, making listening useless. We have a habit of saying one thing or learning it but we don't follow through to completion!
Oh, how I have done this and unfortunately still do at times but when I notice it I have to take action on my issues. In this episode, I give you some life experiences of my own so maybe you can see places where you have taken a misstep in life. Always begin everything with the Lord if you are struggling let him know, pray and then wait for his answer but never stop moving. When issues arise like not following the rules we already know how to follow the rules so it is no deep thought process on how to do it. We need to do it!
Ask yourself this. Where can you make a change? Why must you make that change? Have you started to make your changes beginning with God because when you do he will bless what you do? if you liked what you heard, share, follow, subscribe, and do all the things to get the word of God out there! Stay blessed!
ps. sorry about the noise we had a bit of a storm going on so things were hitting the roof! (ting, click, clack, click, rolling noises)
Changes are happening in our world and changes are happening on the podcast! As you can see there was a rebrand and renaming of the podcast. Re-Ministries is here. Well a work in progress but stepping up on what God wants me to do. Will it be pretty and perfect... nope but eventually with time and experience the ministry will grow and we will all learn what God has given to us and how to use it. The Bible baby! Yes back to the holy word and the Lord's instructions for every individual here on earth. Whether we follow him or not is completely up to us but back to basics and we shall be set free. Stay blessed.
PS. If you are watching the video this was an impromptu video so I am in my craft/sunroom that is being organized excuse the clutter. LOL!
How do you praise God with music in your church? Do you have instruments? Do you just sing hymns? I have been hearing people debate this topic for months now I am sure it has been going on forever though. So I have to put my two cents in. I think the whole thing makes no sense. If you are worshipping God only he knows what is acceptable to him or do we have a manual to help us? Aha! What does the bible say? Psalm 150 take a look at the band that is in the bible now did I see this in the New Testament? No, but there are mentions of musical instruments in it. If you teach the word of God then the churches should follow those words in the entirety. But mankind loves to put our two cents in and change the churches to match their likes or dislikes and then say they have it right and the others don't. Do not judge lest you be judged by the same measure. As for me get your music on people! Sing it, rock it, play it, and praise the Lord loud and proud that He is our God Him and no other! Praise the Lord. Stay Blessed.
Psalm 150
Hi, everyone! Today's episode is all about old and new things can we mix these together to make a new thing? Or is that a bad thing? Well, the easiest way for you to know is to go into the bible and take a look I went to Luke chapter 5:36 the parables of the cloth and wineskins. Nobody in their right mind would tear a new garment to fix an old garment or put new wine in an old wineskin! And if the old is the best why are you wanting to have the new stuff?
So many questions we ask ourselves but in reality, we know what is what and what we are supposed to do in any situation. We may have to think a bit on some things but when it comes to your spiritual life, God is the only one to go to. Jesus is the one who saves and gave everything to prove it to us. I hope you get your bibles out and read the book of Luke but really take a look into those parables your eyes will be opened! Consume the good stuff. Stay blessed.
Luke 5:36
The parable of the garments and wineskins
First, we need to know the Lord's will if we are to follow it then we are supposed to follow it. It really is that simple but as we grow our faith in Christ we will come up against hurdles. Mostly they are self-imposed we put them in our own path and many times we trip. But The Lord knows us and he knows we can get back up and continue to walk in his will. What is God's will? Start with those ten commandments. There you're done. Love God and love others. If you keep these two you will not struggle. Keep in mind though these commandments do cover a vast array of situations, not just the first that pops into your mind. There is no such thing as a small lie. Or stealing a candy bar isn't really stealing. No God wants us to notice every nudge we are inwardly given t make the right choices. Jesus talks about murder not just physically but also mentally too. Have you ever said something that tears a person up? That is in the murder category of the commandments. We are to lift each other up and raise God above all else. In the video, you will see parts of The book of Psalms and Peter. Psalms and first and second Peter are full of how to live a God-given life in a messed up world and help others too. It isn't just about ourselves it is about all those around us too. So look into those books and read the life-giving gems God has left us. Remember it is your choice to move in this direction yours and yours alone. Stay Blessed!
As followers of Christ, we need to be the light! Even in the crazy times, we have to pull ourselves together and be that stated person so others can see how Christ strengthens us. Grumbling and complaining do no good but they will definitely leave you and others in and negative mood. No matter the circumstances be that standard by being the light. Stay Blessed.
Philippians 2:14-16 ESV
Do you know who you are? Do you have a therapy or hobby that can calm you down when you feel like crisis mode is on full blast? Well, I like listening to sermons and podcasts all the time, and sometimes instead of taking notes I for some reason end up drawing! I know there are others out there like me too. But in this episode, I will read to you the messages I got from another person's podcast I listened to, and then you can look up the scriptures that I mention here. So get your pens ready and take notes God is giving you a message from His message! Stay blessed.
Psalms 112
Romans8:22-25
Flashback! All souls have places, He gave his breath to you it is measured.
Book of Ephesians.
Hi all! This is a pretty short episode the Lord showed me that some of us are in a molting season. Bringing an end to a cycle that is not needed and obstructs our path forward. I was led to the book of Philippians and it is a book of rejoicing in the work of Jesus and the transformations it creates. We all should take a deeper look at what needs to be cleared away and rejoice at the progress we have made this year. Stay Blessed!
Philippians 3:13-16
God has been telling humankind since the beginning to be prepared for what is coming. All throughout the bible, there are timelines of events that have happened and you can match them up to the things going on today. But this preparedness is not worldly though that is always a good thing. No, this is about ourselves spiritually. How God is moving in us. How are we learning and training for when the enemy comes and throughs questions at us about our faith? How can you believe in something you can't see? They snicker and mock like that but God says do not be like them. In wisdom, we can tell them about our Lord. This will throw some people off because a lot of Christians are angry at the questioner's lack of faith and get offended and this sometimes is because we are not prepared to give the proper answers. So we must prepare ourselves by reading and training in the written word and this is a process. God knows this but we need to wake up and start to do this. Wisdom, strategy, harmony, and being prepared are what God is pointing us to do. Stay Blessed!
2 Timothy 3:16 ESV All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
Romans 13:11-14 ESV Besides this, you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.
Strategy. Processes. Challenges. Changes. All come from our choices and where we get the information from. Everything started with God and everything still starts with God. We have to disconnect from what makes us pessimistic and brings downfall in our lives to what brings positivity and upliftment. God does the things for us or he gives us the tools and we have to do the work. We have been working since Adam and Eve got a bit hungry and ate something they were not supposed to. We do the same things God gave us the power of choice so let's choose to create a beautiful world. Not just our physical world but our inner world too. I hope you like the message and keep these things in mind an strategy is what we need to work on and it is a process don't bite off more than you can chew. Stay blessed.
Romans 12:4-5 For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, 5so in Christ, we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
Colossians 2:8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces[a] of this world rather than on Christ.
2022 is the year of the Lord's favor. This is a message I have received and it brought me to Isaiah 61 also the word strategy was given to me for this year. This year we really need to re-evaluate our faith in God and how we apply his direction into our lives. Do we apply it at all? Three years ago I had what many are having right now that spiritual crisis and that is when I started looking for God big time. He began to answer me almost immediately though I was messing around and didn't hear him clearly. The closer I got to Him because I put effort into my spiritual/life journey the more God showed me. So where are you standing in God's light do you need a tune-up or an overhaul? Guess what God has a manual that will help you fix yourself right up! The bible! In this brilliant book, you will find many strategies to help you succeed in everything you do...as long as you are meant to be doing it. Here is a verse I had been steered towards and it is a nice encouraging verse too. Stay Blessed!
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jesus does everything! He really does without his teachings and the Holy Spirits' guidance we would be stumbling around in the dark still. But thankfully we have a book that tells us where to look when we are lost so that we can see what is hidden from us. Jesus also taught us to be caring and serve others when the need arises. If we keep his teachings close to our hearts the devil will have no hold or sway in our lives. So go to the land of the risen son and get your map, guide, and book to help you navigate this world! Stay blessed!
Matthew 10
The King or Jesus and his wool the sheep or us. Can we weed out the things that cause us to jump the fence and go to another pasture? Are you a fence walker? Now know this God loves all of us equally he really doe solve us. With all of our faults and sins and dents and dings, he loves us. We don't like to follow the blueprint pour Lord has set out before us we rebel and wrestle with him fight tooth and nail at times. We don't like change and sometimes jump the fence and tell God to take a hike! I did I was a fence walker then I was a fence jumper and then I got a big dose of reality and made my way back to God. I was bruised a bit and embarrassed and ashamed but God said " that isn't you anymore The new you stand in front of me, Do not dwell." This mindset is hard for us but with Jesus' help and guidance we can heal completely and walk in God's truth again. So what are you gonna do? Today we are taking a dive into Isaiah 30 & 40 the ups and downs and the discipline that we obstinate children get into when we just want to have fun. Please read and highlight the verses you really click with. When you start frowning ask yourself why? Did those words hit a nerve? Why did it anger you? Or did you get filled with hope that knowing Christ is coming for us and we can here while on earth live a wonderful! God keeps his words and blesses all of us even if we are not listening his blessing still waits for us to reach out and receive them. Stay Blessed!
The Book of Isaiah chapter 30 and 40
Here is a challenge for you all. Take a look at what you are watching and listening to or playing like video games. Now cut back on it for 21 days. I don't mean reduce it by one hour reduce it by half. I cut back on my social media time and my manga reading. I could only go on to my social media twice a day and for only 30 minutes. That meant in 30 minutes I had to visit all of my accounts. Then I reduced my reading time to only 4 hours per day. Man, I thought I was gonna die at first but now I find myself not doing these things as much still! Reduce the empty or awful things that we consume and replace them with good stuff.
If your shows have violence find some comedy shows (no vulgarity) you know clean things up a bit. If you believe in God guess what you can always find a sermon or history of the bible shows on YouTube. How about listening to podcasts?! God gave me a vision about removing things that are junk from our lives and replacing them with healthy things. If we continue to fill our eyes and ears with empty content it really does absolutely no good for us in any way. So take this challenge and finish it you will be pleasantly surprised by the results. Stay Blessed!
Hebrews 5:12-14
For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.

This year is the year to restore and transform ourselves to our intended glory! God didn't intend for man to fall from his grace I mean he was happy with us in the beginning but something slithered in and temptation won on that score. We are given new chances every time a new day comes around to do better fight harder to change ourselves into the image that we represent. How do we do this magical thing I speak of? Simply read the bible it is all in there. I know we are a lazy bunch but that is no excuse to not do what we need to do. That thinking is the devil's so we stay where we are comfortable and warm but if we do that then we make no progress in life. We want more well prove to God you deserve more by managing your life. Clean it up! Resurrect what good died, restore the things you have broken and transform yourself in ways you never thought imaginable! The impossible self is imaginable take that impossible self and bring it to life. Stay Blessed!

Idol-logy what is this? We have a habit of mixing idols or idolization with our faith and our daily lives and do not think much of it. Think again God knows what we are doing and he is waiting for us to realize and help others to see it too. So how do we spot the idol? Some are very in-your-face idols of worship and others are not so much we have to dig into ourselves to see that little bugger making himself at home. Destroy the destroyable! Let's get to it and take back what was stolen by the thief! That is our peace of mind and love solely for God and Him alone.
