By all means "Escape"

Topic: By all means "Escape"....Having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."
2 Peter 1:4


Vanish for ever all thoughts of indulging the flesh if you would live in the power of your risen Lord. It is ill to believe that a person who is alive in Christ should dwell in the corruption of sin. The Word of God says "Why seek ye the living among the dead?" said the angel to Magdalene. Should the living dwell in the sepulchre? Should divine life be immured in the carnel house of fleshly lust? How can we partake of the cup of the Lord and yet drink the cup of Belial? Surely for believers are free from lusts and sins we are delivered:



Have you also escaped from the more secret and delusive lime-twigs of the Satanic power...Have you come forth from the lust of pride? Have you escaped from slothfulness? Have you clean escaped from carnal security? Are you seeking day by day to live above worldliness, the pride of life, and the ensnaring vice of the enemy? Remember, it is for this that you have been enriched with the treasures of God. If you be indeed the chosen of God, and beloved by Him, do not allow the lavishness of grace to be wasted. Follow after holiness; it is the Christian's crown and glory.



Remember, you are God's chosen.... reign over your lusts. You are God's chosen: do not associate with Belial (the world). Heaven is your portion: live like a heavenly preist, so shall you prove that you have true faith in Jesus; for there cannot be faith in the heart unless there be holiness in the life.

"Lord, I desire to live as one
Who bears a blood-bought name,
As one who fears but grieving Thee,
And knows no other shame."

The Power of ONE

The Power of ONE
I John 4:4

There are times when we think that we are incapable of accomplishing what God puts into our hand,for example; being a single parent, starting a business, writing a book, building a ministry, buying your first home, the list can go on and on. We often times believe that we need a lot of people to help us, to be around us, or maybe you think that you need to know the right person to do what you know that God put into your heart. I would like to give you some good news, the only person that you need on your side is Jesus Christ. He is the one person that can give you the Power to accomplish your goals, build your dream home, and give you back what the devil took from you. He is the POWER OF ONE…One voice that can speak the word to heal your body, the One touch that will break the yoke of the enemy, and the One arm that can rescue you and carry you to a place of safety. Listen to what apostle John wrote in 1 John 4:4, "Ye are of God, little Children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world."

So know this, that as you go on throughout your week know that Jesus Christ, who is the POWER of ONE is in you and you are the greater because of him.

Give Me This Mountain

Give me this mountain
Joshua 14:12

The people of Israel had come to the place of the promised land for the second time after being denied access by God because of their unbelief. Caleb, who is now 85 years old and Joshua being an old man, are the only two remaining survivors from the previous generation that proceeded out of Egypt forty years earlier. They are determined not to be denied access into what is rightfully theirs again. They declared with a resolved, determined, resolute attitude, “Give me this mountain! I will not spend another day, hour, moment in this wilderness. I will believe God, conquer my foe, and embrace the promises of God…..Give me my mountain!!!"

Caleb was sending his brethren a clear signal and his enemies a power warning that "I will not be denied my victory." If we are going to walk in victory, conquer our foe, and embrace the promises of God we must have a resolved, determined and resolute spirit. Victory belongs to you so declare it, believe it and embrace it!!!

Watch Out for the Little Foxes!

Watch out for the little foxes
(Song of Solomon 2:15)

Many times we as Christian can be very alert concerning what we call the big elephant (SIN) that is in the room, but how many of us really pay attention to the little foxes? The little foxes are very destructive; if they get into the vine yard they will destroy your vines. Grapes grow on the vines but the foxes love to eat the grapes before they become ripe, grow, and become clusters. When the grapes are ripe, wine is produced.

In the Bible, wine is compare to the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit that anoint us, empower us to defeat our enemies and to live for Christ. The Holy Spirit helps us to pray and we walk with God in sweet fellowship. Remember to guard yourself also against the little foxes; little sins are parents of the greatest sins. It doesn't take much: Satan would love to send little foxes your way before you come into the place of your breakthrough, your miracle, or your long awaited blessing to destroy your vine…so pray, be watchful, and remember to guard your vine yard.

Receive the blessing of the Lord

Our Lord Jesus is ever giving, and does not for a solitary instant withdraw His hand. As long as there is a vessel of grace not yet full to the brim, the oil shall not be stayed. He is a sun ever-shining; He is manna always falling round the camp; He is a rock in the desert, ever sending out streams of life from His smitten side; the rain of His grace is always dropping; the river of His bounty is ever-flowing, and the well-spring of His love is constantly overflowing. As the King can never die, so His grace can never fail. Daily we pluck His fruit, and daily His branches bend down to our hand with fresh store of mercy. Today enjoy the blessing of the LORD!!!

What did it cost?

One Man, One Cross and Three Nails:

No one has ever died like Jesus, when I think of what he had to endure, the pain, the agony, and the anguish, all to bring us back into a right relationship with our Heavenly Father we can surely say no one ever will die like him. The price was to costly: no amount of money, gold, nor precious stone would be sufficient. Jesus loved us so, that He gave his own life and blood to set us free from the Sin and the power of darkness that we might worship Him our Lord with a free spirit. Yes it cost Jesus his life to pay the prices for our sins…praise the Lord!!!

So when you get down in your spirit, feel like you want to give in or give up, when the devil comes to bring accusations, indictment, or blame: tell yourself that it cost Jesus to much for you to set in defeat…so get up, step out and begin to move towards your destiny, remember Jesus Love you!!!

There is no loser in me

I want to tell you “There is no loser in you!” When you think about who you are and who’s you are, all of what Jesus Christ has done for you, what He has invested in you to bring you to a prosperous place, you can face your day with this word in your spirit: “There is no loser in me!” You can do all things through Christ that strengthens you. You are created in His Divine Image, how can you lose?! You have His DNA in you; I say again how can you lose…you are a winner!!!

1. Have a winning attitude
2. Stand on His Word
3. Keep a praise for Jesus in your heart
