The scripture says as many as are led by the Spirit of GOD are the sons (children) of GOD. Of all the influences around us, nothing should be more influential on us than the Spirit of GOD. Many Christians quote 1st John 4, where he says, “Greater is He that is in you than he... Continue Reading →
Fulfilling Your Role in the Book of Life
A perspective I have been enjoying recently is the idea of the Lord inviting us into His greater story by making us letters read of all men, as Paul writes about in the book of 2 Corinthians. The question is, are we willing to be a chapter in His story (history)? Can He use us... Continue Reading →
Don’t Be Crushed Under Your Own Truth
Witchcraft and divination are used synonymously in the bible and refers to man acknowledging something as divine or as from a god, when it has been derived from a source other than the holy, righteous, true, and living GOD. We see that a lot today in people declaring their own truth. Truth is divine reality... Continue Reading →
Less Is So Much More
Christians need to stop saying they are not in a religion but in a relationship, as if they are mutually exclusive. That claim has been used as a means to cover carnality. Born again Christians are required to follow the same commandments that the people they refer to as religious are trying to follow, but... Continue Reading →
Better Comes from Owning Not Blaming
Sankofa is the process of understanding where you are by a truthful evaluation of the circumstances that got you to your “here”. That means owning the present outcomes since they are largely based on the values and beliefs you exercised in your decision making. We don’t always get to choose the particular options before us...

If you love America, then don’t let the nation be spoiled by withholding correction. As Christians, we have to be faithful and true to GOD, which is the same as being... Continue Reading →
Embracing A Healthy Detachment from This World
One of the most difficult things I have seen Christians struggle with is having a healthy level of detachment from this current world. When I say world, I am referring to “world” in the biblical sense of the following verse: 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world,... Continue Reading →
Resisting Truth: Why Some Christians Fall Short and Fall Away
“11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” (Ephesians 4:11-12 KJV) Christians who fall short of the glory of GOD don’t fall short because sin is so...

Reconciliation Through the Cross: We die individually but we are raised together
A good brother of mine shared a podcast with me recently that has a focus on the work of racial reconciliation. As Christians, the message we have been called to share is the redeeming message of reconciliation to the Father through the Son. It is in the context of that reconciliation that we are reconciled...

Beware of Private Interpretations that Hide Truth
Your relationship with GOD is personal in that no one else can believe for you or worship for you. Each of those requires a personal knowing of GOD from our own heart. However, getting to that place and remaining in that place, by GOD’s design, involves the whole body of Christ. Understand, for the maturing... Continue Reading →
