Lord, I pray against the spirit of depression and suicide; you say we will live and not die; you have reconciled us to you; you have created in us new creatures. We will live and not die. I pray that no weapon formed against any of your children will not prosper. God, cover your children with your fresh mercy day to day; give them joy and peace in there hearts; let them be reminded of your grace and love for them. Help them to be patient in affliction, joyful in hope and faithful in prayer. Give them the spirit of peace; let joy overflow in their hearts. God, if its in your will send them an angel to whisper a word of peace be still.In Jesus name Amen!
YOU WILL LIVE AND NOT DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scripture of the Week
PHILIPPIANS 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things. There are alot of distractions in the world today;that can hinder the spirit of God in our lives if we are not careful. We have to ask God for discernment to recognize these things. Also, we have to be mature enough to know what not to allow in our lives as hinderances. We have to line our hearts and minds up with the word of God at all times.
Sometimes we may find ourselves in the midst of gossip, negative thoughts and conversations; we have to remove ourselves from these things because they are distractions to hinder the spirt in your life. Fear, is a hinderance, discouragement, disobedience; sometimes disobedience is not necessarily in our actions but it can be in our thought life. God has given us the anecdote to these things in his word; he says think on the things which are pure and good, praise worthy and admirable. It sounds to me that our thoughts are just important as our actions.
What must realize that what we put into ourselves is what comes out of us. We must watch the words of our mouth; what we speak; what conversations we listen to and engage in; gossip,lust,fear,disobedience, doubts; watching negative movies,reading content that is hindering and blocking the good things that God has for us, stubborness, arrogance, pride.. We have to pray daily, repent daily, praise God daily; ask the holy spirit for guidance. These things will help us when those things that surround us in the world tries to get close to us.
God has given us the Holy Spirit as a guide; a teacher; ask for direction and strength to be an overcomer. We can overcome negative thinking through Christ who strengthens us. ROMANS 12:1-2 says that we have to present our bodies a living sacrifice holy and acceptable unto God which is our reasonable service; do not be conformed to this world but be you transformed by the renewing our your mind.
The Holy spirit reeducates us and renews our minds; however, we have to be obedient to the holy spirit and not hinder the spirit by feeding ourselves the wrong things. Watch what you put into yourself and never forget to ask the Holy Spirit for help;God gave us the spirit to teach, comfort and direct us.
God wants the best for us and he wants to give us his promises; his word is the truth and the way to eternal life; before we can get to the heavenly Kingdom; we have to continue with Kingdom living here on earth.
Examine what you are putting into your mind and replace harmful things with good wholesome material. Remember whats in you come out; ask God to help you focus your mind on what is good and pure. It takes practice; but it will happen because all things are possible through Christ Jesus.
I trust God that this word will bless you; because God is the author and the finisher.
I love you and I thank God for your overcoming.

Reflections of a PSALM
PSALM 23
The Lord is my Sherpherd
I shall be in want
He makes me to lie down
in green pastures
he leads me beside quiet waters
he restores my soul
He guides me in a path of righteousness
for his name sake
Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
for you are with me
your rod and
your staff they comfort me
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies
you annoint my head with oil
my cup overflows
Surely goodness and love
will follow me
all the days of my life
and I will dwell
in the houseof the Lord
forever.
All I can say is that is enough for me; as I write this scripture out; I am hearing it at the same time and it has touch apart of my soul that I nevr knew exists; God is a caring shepherd and a dependable guide; He is our only hope for eternal life and security. Life is unertain but we have the guidance of a Good Shepherd to comfort us; if we follow God through obedience we will know the comfort of the green pastures and the quiet waters. I believe we must believe this when we are tempted to go our own way.15 minutes left to edit your comment.

SCRIPTURE OF THE WEEK
THESSALONIANS 4:1-8
In these verses God is speaking to us about holy living and not living by our desires; our lustful desires; God has called us to live holy and honorable unto him as the scriptures says in verse 4:4-5 "that each of you should learn to control his own body, in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust, like the heathen, who do not know God."(NIV)
Who is God speaking to; he is speaking to all that believes that he is GOD,those who know him. God is requiring(not asking), commanding that we die to our flesh and that we live holy unto him; submitting ourselves to his will and the scripture tells us what his will is. The scripture in verse 4:7-8 "For God did not not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit." (NIV)
Sexual desires and such activities must be placed under Christ's control, sexual sins can be damaging not only to our physical relationships or bodies but to our spiritual relationship with God and our spiritual growth.God created sex for marriage. Being santified or made holy is the process of living the christian life. God gives us the Holy Spirit to teach us how to become more like Christ; it conforms us into the images of Christ. Are we perfect no, does God expect us to know how to do this on our own, No. God has given us instruction and he has given us the Holy Spirit to help us, guide us
James 1:5 "If any of you lacks wisdom, he should askGod, who gives generously without finding fault, and it will be given to him. verse 6 says " But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt"
We all struggle with things, we all have had to ask God to help us get to that point of Holy and Honorable, but God said it in his word, that all we have to do is ask him and he will help us without counting it against us,on top of that he says he will give it to us, he has in his instructions, through his son, but we have to BELIEVE and not Doubt. If you are struggling with lust, any form of fornication and you want to come out of it, you can ASK GOD, you will IF YOU BELEIVE AND NOT DOUBT.
I urge each of you to yearn to submit your selves under God's loving care; he will take care of you, he will guide you. If you fall, get up, if you slip, jump up and repent and ask God for his guidance and wisdom and when he gives it to you, hear and do it.
Lust can be hard, fornication can be hard(for you) but nothing is too hard for God. God will deliever you out of your enemies hands; if you want it, ask for it. Receive what God has for you, TRUST HIM. Lust will not be allowed to destroy your walk with Christ, God will give you a spiritual break through, all chains of lust will be broken.
Lets pray,
Father, in the name of your son, Jesus Christ, we thankyou for breaking the stronghold of lust and fornication, we thankyou for the chains of sexual bondage being broken right now! God you are Soverign, you are all power, God we know that with you we can do all things, We thankyou Jesus for breaking the curses of sexual desires, thank you God for healing and deliverance, we thankyou for your healing waters that washes away all our sins. God, we worship you for who you are in our lives, we thankyou for giving us instructions and making your son a living, walking and breathing sacrifice for us, so that we may be able to know you and have your loving mercy. Thank you Jesus for your mercy, thankyou for the resurrection, we ask you humbly as we know how to help us, strengthen us, we know that we can do all things through you, thankyou for your Blood that washes over our sins and gives us new life, a fresh blessing. It is in Jesus, Mighty and Holy name, Amen!
GO AHEAD, GET HAPPY AND GIVE GOD A PRAISE, THANK GOD FOR YOUR DELIVERANCE, WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS US, WE ARE VICTORIOUS! YOU HAVE THE VICTORY, WALK IN IT.
God Bless you all, if you Believe It you will Receive It!

My GIFT by: GOD'S POET(CoCo)
HOLY GHOST PARTY!
Five years ago; I got to know you day by day you courted me
You told me you require intimacyI remember thinking that's what boyfriends and girlfriends do
You told me, No my child; that's how things got confused
See intimacy is what I give you I listen to your cries, I wipe your tears, I sit at the foot of your bed and watch you sleep;
when you close your eyes I whisper PEACE........
I hold your hand when you are alone
I brush your hair when you are sickIntimacy is what
I created to be given without conditions
I remember, it so well, when I came into your presence...
I was afraid to mess up, but I did and you told me ,
that it is okay, get up, dust your knees off and let's walk together this time;
dont rush you said; follow my pace
sometimes it takes longer but I will send you grace
I remember feeling like this is the greatest love...
i never known I remember wanting to know but too afraid to fine you on my own;
I remember challenging you, you are God but I was feeling grown. I told you,
I am not going to set my alarm and if you wake me up at eight in the morning,
I would come to your church all aloneWhat did I know...You are GOD...You have all power..
Poor little girl has no clue;
you woke me up at eight for sure and I was like whoa...
because I sleep with two alarms set to go...
I remember at 10:45 a.m. I was at The Love Center ready to hit the do-oh(door)
Oh, How I rejoice, it was five years ago, I am so happy for that day I must say
Who would have thought it...so long ago I would be saved
go to christian clubs and not have a drink
who would have thought it
my favorite hip hop artist is born again just like me and he raps about your grace;
OBIE one B.A. is his name; BORN AGAIN IS HIS REASON
Who would have thought it
that I chill with my girls eating and laughing having a good old time and I would break out in prayer; all to give you praise
Who would have known that one day I would be called to call some others into this grace
I remember it was just five years ago!
CoCo
I love you Jesus; you are my Lord and Saviour; I WILL BLESS YOUR NAME AT ALL TIMES!

Like 19:11-27 Gifts are to be given away!
HELLO FAMILY!
I want to share with you all, my gift; GOD planted this in me from the beginning of my life and I know now that this gift is to be used for his purpose. We all have gifts that God has put into our being. We call them talents; however thay are gifts from GOD, he chose to give us somethingthat would make us different, make us unique; it sort of defines our relationship with GOD; these gifts are not to be kept to ourselves, they are to be used for his purpose. Our time TALENT and tithes. What is your gift (talent) or you using it for GOD. Dont worry if you are not currently use it, you can, start right now. Who are you to GOD, what defines your relationship. See, in the natural (worlds) we have nicknames for our family members or close friends, these are ways to show affection, intimacy, adoration, how significant that person is to you. Well, do you not realize that nothing is new under the heavens, everything begins and ends with GOD.
My question is who do GOD calls you. Yes, we are all his children, the saved and unsaved, but who are you to GOD, whats your relationship status, do he adorn you by an affectionate nickname. What;s your name, who are you? GOD calls me Poetess/Writer, that's who he made me a Poet; he gave me the gift of words, my talent, I can't sing , I can't dance, I can't play music, but I can speak articulately, I can write, I have a way with words. I can deliver the message through my talent, I can witness through my talent, I can spread the gospel through my words, the words that GOD ordains for me to give unto his children.
It is time to surrender our gifts unto GOD, they were given to us so that we may give them away, to help spread the gospel to the world. Use your gifts for GOD's purpose and God will see that your rivers of talent never goes dry. I ask you what's your gift, now give it away, willingly and in obedience. SURRENDER YOUR GIFTS!
GOD said from the beginning, I will give her the gift of words, her nickname will be POET/POETESS. What's God's affectionate nickname for you; if its comedienne, give it to God; we need gospel filled comediennes to bring it clean and in truth, is it singer, bring the gift of song, is it the gift of nurturer, god may call you Mother, there are children who need you, that has no mother surrender your gifts.
These gifts are for the building of the kingdom; GOD gaves these to us so that we will bring people into salvation; deliverance is for everybody, but not everybody comes to the deliverer on their own; without a witness to bear witness of GOD and his truth.
Luke 19:11-27 (Paraphrasing) Read this passage
Jesus is telling us that we need to use our gifts; use what has been giving to us to build his kingdom; how will you invest what GOD has given you for his purpose. Our purpose is to be used for his purpose, so that means everything we got is to be given to GOD because he gve to us anyway. In this particular passage the king gave three servants his money(gifts) and he told them to go put it to work util he returned, when the king came back onlt two had done what he ask, he blessed according to their own measure, the one who did not do what the king ask, the king was angry with, he gave what he did not reap to the servant who reaped the most. Why was the king angry, well, the servant did not obey him, he did not trust the kings intentions and he only thought about his self, he has no thought for what this would do for the kingdom.
So, what does this have to do with you, us? Jesus is the king, we are the servants, we must obey God by using what he has given us(our gifts) to build the kingdom, Jewsus expects us to use our talents so that they multiply and the kingdom grows.
Are you willingly to use what GOD has give you? Luke 19:11-27 Read it for yourselves; you will be blessed. I want to share my gifts with you. I will share my gifts with you, this is why its 5:46 a.m. and I have not being to sleep and I am writing you this word. I care about the Kingdom, above all I lve GOD and I care about you. Lets get busy!
Gifts are to be given away, that's why they are gifts!

These gifts are for the building of the kingdom; GOD gaves these to us so that we will bring people into salvation; deliverance is for everybody, but not everybody comes to the deliverer on their own; without a witness to bear witness of GOD and his truth.
Luke 19:11-27 (Paraphrasing) Read this passage
Jesus is telling us that we need to use our gifts; use what has been giving to us to build his kingdom; how will you invest what GOD has given you for his purpose. Our purpose is to be used for his purpose, so that means everything we got is to be given to GOD because he gve to us anyway. In this particular passage the king gave three servants his money(gifts) and he told them to go put it to work util he returned, when the king came back onlt two had done what he ask, he blessed according to their own measure, the one who did not do what the king ask, the king was angry with, he gave what he did not reap to the servant who reaped the most. Why was the king angry, well, the servant did not obey him, he did not trust the kings intentions and he only thought about his self, he has no thought for what this would do for the kingdom.
So, what does this have to do with you, us? Jesus is the king, we are the servants, we must obey God by using what he has given us(our gifts) to build the kingdom, Jewsus expects us to use our talents so that they multiply and the kingdom grows.
Are you willingly to use what GOD has give you? Luke 19:11-27 Read it for yourselves; you will be blessed. I want to share my gifts with you. I will share my gifts with you, this is why its 5:46 a.m. and I have not being to sleep and I am writing you this word. I care about the Kingdom, above all I lve GOD and I care about you. Lets get busy!
Gifts are to be given away, that's why they are gifts!
