We don’t think much about self-talk, but it’s literally the foundation for our lives. Many of us think life just happens and the earth is static. It’s not — your life is a sum total of beliefs, thoughts, and words. Months ago, when I caught this revelation, I was diligent about changing my image, how…

If You’re Still Worrying, You Have Not Entered His Rest If you’re still worrying about the situation, you have not yet entered His rest. Worrying will not change anything—but giving thanks and declaring the end will. Open your mouth and say something. Prayer is talking—not thinking silently. There is not a single Scripture that supports…

What you’re looking for is not upstream—it’s downstream. We’ve been taught that struggle is noble. That working hard and long, praying hard and long, somehow proves our devotion or earns us breakthrough. But that kind of thinking is rooted in toil—not truth. Toil is part of the curse, not the blessing. “Cursed is the ground…

Yesterday, a man said to me, “I’m nothing. I can do nothing. I am nothing.” That might sound nice and humble to the religious mind, but it’s actually an insult to the Father. God never called you “nothing.” He called you a conqueror: “Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him…

What Are You Speaking Against? I recently had a conversation with a woman who was full of negative confessions. She’s in the process of selling a house, yet she spent an hour telling me all the reasons why it wouldn’t sell. I paused and asked her, “Then why is it even listed? Give me three…

Peter said, “Silver and gold have I none, but what I do have I give to you: rise up and walk.” That is drastically different than how we speak to sickness today—or even how we behave. You were not told to pray for sickness! You SPEAK to it! It’s false humility to walk around acting…

What’s cool about Moses is that he is a historical figure, not just biblical. His life is documented in secular history but the layer that makes it so beautiful to me is his relationship with the Living God. Imagine God in the form of a cloud standing in your doorway just talking with you. Don’t…

Saturday night, I ran a bath before bed. I sleep better after being lightly boiled for about 30 minutes. Don’t y’all just love a good hot bath after a long work week? For me, it serves two purposes: it helps me sleep in a bit and relaxes my overworked muscles. Before I got into the…

How many of us want a visit from God? That would be great, right? Imagine—God drops by, we exchange pleasantries, hugs, stories, a few tears, and then He leaves. This is what most want. We don’t want the Lord to actually live with us. That’s why Jesus had to sleep in the mountains. Folk wanted…

You cannot live walking on eggshells. The closer I get to 50, the freer I get. I used to try to be accepted and loved by everyone—who doesn’t want that? Then I got born again, and the scales fell from my eyes. I realized that I was now in a war I had never seen…
