Matthew 10: 9-23 1. Do not go among the Gentiles or the town of the Samaritan

2. Take nothing with you, like change of clothing, money, shoes, bag for the journey or staff.

3. Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave. As you enter the home, give it your greeting. If the home is deserving , let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you.

4. If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. Jesus said, “ truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

5. “ I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and flogged. On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you…for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

This was the test run for the disciples on what Jesus was here on earth teaching and preparing them to do after his departure. How well learnt were they in doing the will of the Father? Jesus sent them out with power and authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. This was a simple test, but the most important test for the twelve disciples. If Jesus can do a good work through them without dying; being resurrected and ascending to heaven, humanity survival from sin, like Noah and his family has hope after all to be saved.

It is important to understand that the Lord never gives us more than we can handle. But with obedience, no devil in hell can prevent you from the will and purpose of the Lord. What may seem impossible for you to do, acknowledge with obedience to God, all things are possible, so give Him glory, for it is a blessings to walk in obedience.

To highlights that should be within us, in our walk with Christ is Matthew 10:14-16. If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. Jesus didn’t die and ascended to heaven, neither has the Holy Spirit came. The importance of the very dust not clinging to the disciples feet from those people or town who rejected them, represents how much of the blessings and glory of the Lord they are walking with and how it can strongly impact those lives who will accept it. Jesus is saying to the disciples, “leave those who chooses to remain in their darkness at that time, for the time was not yet right, that their eyes be open.” The souls was also vulnerable to be contaminated by powers and principalities of those people, towns and villages bound in sin and they could unknowingly take it with them wherever they may travel.

Matthew 10:16: “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snake and innocent as dove. Even a shrewd snake knows to strike(bite) if a wrong move is made by someone or anything. If you’re a sheep being sent out among wolves, you must be in survival mode if knowingly you’re going to be eaten by a wolf, you better know to fight. A serpent is wise in knowing how to take down big prey with just one bite. Don’t be fooled that you have to be nice, peaceful and full of wisdom in order to take action for your safety. Jesus never said to run or don’t bite. The innocent of a dove is bring Gods glory and grace (peace, hope, renewal, love, unity…blending in with others.) Jesus didn’t send out the disciples with a boastful, obnoxious, narcissistic attitude.

Matthew 10: 23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes. This was only applicable to the disciple back in those days? Jesus was prophesying that they would not complete this task because he knew they would go astray once he was arrested and it would take His resurrection and the descendants of the Holy Spirit to enable the disciples with greater power and strength . The disciples lacked in faith after seeing all that Jesus suffered. It was the power of the Holy Ghost which fell on them like tongues of fire empowered them. It took the power and strength through Christ Jesus to empower them all and excluding us today.

Let’s meditate on this wisdom of God. He send us out equipped. The circumstances with following Christ ain’t easy. You are challenged beyond your capabilities, the reason you have to walk in faith. Jesus is standing with us even though we’re equipped, because like the disciples, we sometimes loose faith when situations becomes more than we can bear or handle. The disciples were warned they were going to be arrested, beaten and hated for His sake, but through the power of the Holy Spirit that fell on them, their strength and faith was renewed. The hardest thing is feeling you’re alone in a battle with so many enemies. Jesus who walk among us and took on our infirmities knows when we need our hands to be held, for he, himself cried out to the Father on the cross, why have you forsaken me? He doesn’t ever want us to feel the battle is ours alone. That why He will never leave us comfortless, nor forsake us.

We don’t fight alone. We step into the rink with Christ in a fight, to fight along side with him. He started the war against the enemy we couldn’t conquer on our own and equipped us with the tools and guidance through obedience to continue until He comes to finish it. He enables us to stand up to the bully who continues to try and take us down.

Revelation 12:6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.

The Lord kept the Mary’s(women) silent until now. He knew the dragon would be after her for what she was about to conceive and birth in the earth to destroy it. He kept her silent for such a time as this. She wasn’t crowned queen of Heaven, the Earth and Crucifix(the cross) for no reason. For her faithfulness, like her son Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, is fulfilling His will and purpose saying to the angel Gabriel, “behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” Luke 1:38

Today if you have eyes to see, I pray you’re seeing, and ears to hear I pray you’re hearing the things the Lord is making well known to humanity about sin and it’s power over us is coming to an end. If we’d only walk in obedience to His truth and righteousness following after His son Jesus, we shall not be moved by what’s going on in the world today. We spoke of the paradigm shift for years that was to be taking place in the earth, “it has been fulfilled.” God’s Hidden Woman, all the Mary’s(women) in the earth are being placed in position, to birth the one and only true ruler of the earth, Jesus. “The spirit of the Lord is surrounding us.”

Man is looking at the outside appearance of a woman; perceiving that she’s too weak, to lead or rule. Not recognizing how much of a vessel of God, like himself she is. She’s the soil He uses to grow and nurture them, even from her womb. Her strength to form, carry and then birth them all comes from Him. She never forgets His loving touch, for He is her first love as a virgin, to place man in her womb. From a baby to a man, it’s through the power of God within a woman that birth and nurture a valiant man of God.

In the Bible, no where can it be found that the Antichrist is a woman. For those who have ears to hear let them hear the word of the Lord. We have the choice to change destiny or should I say prophecy. Nothing where God is concern for humanity is unchangeable or impossible for redemption, it’s already done. God allows man to choose. From the beginning with Adam and Eve He gave choice, “if you eat of the tree of good and evil, you shall surely die, every other tree you can eat.” He didn’t create robots, but He was teaching like Jesus did, even back then. If God didn’t want Adam and Eve to eat of the fruit of good and evil He would have fenced it around to prevent them from getting to it. Yet, He told them of the consequences of doing so. It was first lesson of obedience children.

We shouldn’t have to get burn continually to realize fire burns. “How well learnt are we.” Echoing to us today. We should know and understand from Genesis to Revelation we are fighting against forces more powerful than we can control without being obedient to God. This thing called sin, and the instigator of it all the, devil. The Bible to which I call, the biography of humanity struggles with sin because of disobedience and God’s never ending love, guidance, protection and salvation; the navigation of what it takes to overcome and how it will be overcome. We were given the tools and the lessons in obedience. We must learn from Jesus, “not my will, but Your will be done.” The key is Jesus, through Him we are able to overcome all obstacles preventing us from drawing nearer to God and fulfilling His will and purpose.

“The spirit of the Lord is surrounding us, trust and believe.” Philippians 1:6 And I am certain that God , who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. God plans is in works already! “Stand still and see his salvation.”

When we can understand and acknowledge His strength is made perfect in our weakness, then, and only then, can we recognize, through Him we can do all things. No power or strength have we, of our own. To see me is to see the Father, it’s not my will, but His will be done. Jesus, became me, this sinner, to set me free from the bondage of sin. To say I live for Him, is to surrender my entire being to His will, and purpose for my life. Even when I am tired, frustrated, overwhelmed and depressed, His power keeps me going.

Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Mark 16:18 They shall take up serpents: and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Why are you still ignorant oh men and women of God? “Judge not lest you be judge.” What God meant for good, why do you see it as evil? Pray and ask for discernment before you speak the things you know nothing about, concerning the Masters’ will and purpose. “All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called, according to His purpose ” Romans 8:28. David was knowledgeable enough to know, when it came to God’s anointed Paul, not to kill him. 1 Samuel 26:9 “And David said to Alishai, “destroy him not, for who can stretch forth his hand against the Lord’s anointed, and be guiltless?

So many of us are wrong to judge or condemn the Lord’s anointing. Why do we feel so equal to God that we can pin point His errors? With man who fight not against flesh, but powers and principalities… as revealed to Paul Ephesians 6:12. The Lord knows our weaknesses. Jesus had recognized in the garden of Gethsemane that mans spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. “I resent having to always quoting Christ, “ forgive them Father for they know not what they do.” Really! I truly believe if you read and understand the scriptures as you proclaim, it’s not rocket science to you who do claim to know Gods thoughts and feelings like the Pharisees and scribes who surely thought they knew and understood, yet the first sign of Jesus ability for doing good, resented Him and saw Him as a threat. Pray and ask for discernment, whenever uncertain, let the Holy Ghost, the revealer of truth reveal it to you; trust in Him, walk by faith, not by sight or your own understanding.

How to discern when someone is following Christ, is to follow in His footsteps of unconditional love for all humanity. You’re hated by man for doing good. They could never find anything you’ve done wrong, but yet, want to destroy you, always fault finding in everything you do and say. Only God can bring you down, no one but the Lord has power over your life. The enemy uses their self righteous attitude of slander, hate and envy to try and destroy the Lord’s anointed with no success. They are always plotting, with no victory over the Lord’s anointed. Saul tried many times to kill David with no success.

Genesis 32:25 When the man saw that he, Jacob could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestle with the man. Jacob from then on was limping because of his hip.

Acts 9:1-4 Saul fell to the ground…2 Corinthians 12:6-7 Now Paul, spoke about the thorn in his flesh. God told Paul His power is made perfect in his, Paul weakness. The Lord proclaimed that His grace was fully capable of providing everything Paul needed to endure his suffering.

Have you ever struggled with God to the point, like Jacob and Paul you were left with a thorn in your flesh? As so eloquently described by Paul. What’s the thorn in your flesh? A thorn in your flesh is anything that disrupts your normal physical well being in your body, yet you are functional. It’s a reminder of your physical and spiritual dependence on the Lord. I came to realize that your thorn can also be mental, emotional or conscious, such as fear or anything that makes you rely only on God, because no one but God is able to make the impossible possible for you in your live. You’ll learn to acknowledge His power working within you when fear no longer controls over you. His power working within enable you to do whatever He has called you to, even doing it scared regardless. Bold assurance and fresh courage somehow over takes you whether it’s fear, your health…whatever your struggles maybe, reminds us that God strength is made perfect in our weakness. God does whatever it takes to get our attention, but sometimes we’re much too distracted by life to acknowledge it.

You are marked with humility in Christ to submit your will to the Heavenly Father’s, lest you forget whose you are, with that touch that can leave you totally relying on the Heavenly Father. Whenever we get beside ourselves, to think too highly of one self, you have a constant reminder to stay (in your lane) in other words, on your knees in prayer remaining close to God. You are touched! Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane had a touch. That touch happened when all His power was stricken from Him for what He was about to face. Jesus the man was separated from Jesus the deity in the garden of Gethsemane. No strength or power of His own, lead like a lamb to the slaughter, giving up His power; subject to physical, mental, and emotional torture and felt everything like we do.

When God has revealed Himself to us in our struggles He touches us. For some people who are unable to recognize the touch as Paul and Jacob had, they consider it a curse on their lives. Even with this knowledge given through Paul and Jacob some people are born with a touch, not even aware of what the touch is, or meant to be in their lives. When Jesus was asked by his disciples in John 9: 1-3 who sinned, the blind man or his parents that he was born blind. Jesus answered, “ neither the blind man nor his parents sinned, but it happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.” Even though the blind man had struggles in life as being born blind he survived, to be given his sight and God the glory. God will and purpose was completed in him. It was his time in his struggle to be touched to show Gods power.

We have to stop hating our live and having high expectation feeling like a failure over and over again without asking in prayer for the Lord to guide and lead us in His will and purpose for your life, especially as faithful believers in God. We have to ask for discernment to the voice of God in our lives and recognize the touch. Do you feel the thorn in your flesh? Then give Him praise! The thorn is working for your good, it’s a “Touch!”

Why celebrate? Because the hand of God was shown to all humanity around the world to see. Within that four minutes of totality as we immersed in the darkness, I felt something moved within me, as the darkness passes over for that moment, then sun swiftly began to shine again. I was filled with so much emotions. I was fearful, yet joyful, worried about humanity. But as my heart was filled with so much love, there was a sense of God hands moving the moon as He held the sun still, then tears fell from my Eyes. For a moment I vision Jesus on the cross again being crucified. The earth quaked, the curtain was tornado in the temple and the sun was eclipsed. I felt within my spirit that this is more than just a historical moment phenomenon. It was like God speaking to humanity, “ you do know truth, even to when things are going to take place and has taken place, but yet you have no control, I am in control.” Even though we were given the knowledge of this phenomenon there was nothing man could have done, it was all in Gods hands. A confession of the existence of God we can’t deny. Not even ignorance or science can explain the purpose of the eclipse or could take away what was felt in my spirit, “truth of God existence revealed.”

God has shown that darkness is but for a moment, and light cannot be overshadowed by darkness it will still find a way to shine through. Darkness is passing through y’all. We must be careful not to find ourselves overshadowed by the darkness. “Please don’t go over to the dark side.” Times are very difficult and our flesh will be tested. Be aware of thoughts in your mind and heart, that are going to be over taken by ego. Ego is going to make you feel entitled, everything is about you, and you come first before everyone and everything. Your love is going to run cold, etc. Stand in faith recognizing a child of God is about love and humility. When you find love is slipping away from you and bitterness and hate is trying to take control, pray. Pray and plead with the Holy Spirit to be not withdrawn from you, help you to discern and remember who Jesus is in you and whose you are. Remain in the light at all cost! The darkness is inviting and tempting, before you know it you’re justifying evil as being good. Some people are already on the dark side saying evil is good, can’t discern between right and wrong, fallen and have no idea.

There’s a time and season for everything according to scriptures, Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. We’re in a time of war, killing, tearing down, weeping and mourning, time to scatter, time to refrain from embracing, time to give up, time to throw away, time to speak, and a time to hate. The present of Lord is also prevalent, as the wows of life will increase. Those who have faith will understand it like a woman in labour; our troubles and suffering will not cease until the Lord’s will be done in earth, and it will feel like the spirit of God has left the world, but hold on, it’s within you. Those who don’t lose faith but continue to pray will be anchored in the Lord to withstand these trying times.

Covid 19 pandemic deaths, lockdowns and isolation, Donald Trumps presidency, all that had taken place like the death of George Floyd Jr. etc., the fires, war in Ukraine, tornado, hurricane, earthquakes, war in Jerusalem, old diseases returning, every man/woman through fame and fortune looked upon as a star or to idolize, has fallen from grace in our sight, the leap-year and now the eclipses. Humanity, through the wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the Heavenly Father, if well learnt, we can change our destiny from our own destruction, to victory over the enemy and sin through obedience to God. God is waiting for us all to gather before Him as we did for the eclipse, prepared with the word within our mind, body and soul, as we were with our glasses. The Word is our protective shield from the enemy. We need possess it to break through the chains of the enemy to get to His presence.

Romans 6:23 “ For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 3:23-24 All of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. But God treats us much better than we deserve, and because of Christ Jesus, he freely accepts us and sets us free from our sins.

Jesus prophesied to Peter that Satan was going to come after him. First Peter had proclaimed that Jesus is the son of God; then the next moment he pleaded with Jesus not to go to be crucified. Matthew 16:13: 23. And at the last supper Peter once again proclaimed that he was ready to go with Jesus to prison or to death, when Jesus predicted to him, the rooster will crow three times and he will deny him. Luke 22:34.

Peter, truly loved Jesus and could have never perceived himself doing against him. We art to consider deeply within ourselves this question, “what then caused him to?” The fact Jesus was able to predict Peter’s betrayal speak volume of his comprehends with the struggles man endures because of sin. Peter was adamant to stand with Jesus even proof when he cut off the ear of the soldiers and Jesus had rebuked him, John 18:10-11.

Was Judas a worst sinner than Peter? We all know it’s because of him Jesus was captured and taken to be crucified, being paid thirty pieces of silver. Jesus also predicted that he was the one whom would betray him; being the one he’d dipped his bread in the dish and gave a piece. As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. John 13: 21-27.

Noticed in the presence of Jesus Satan wasn’t welcome, neither did he present himself. Judas had already collected the thirty pieces of silver, but yet carried on like he had no idea he would ever be the one to betray Jesus. Think for a moment deeply, was he telling the truth? Like Peter I believe he truly believed he wasn’t, because it was only when given the dipped bread, with Jesus permission, Satan then entered him. His feet were washed as being part with Jesus, he wasn’t excluded from the rest of disciples as Jesus’s own. John 13:2-11. When realizing what he had done to Jesus Judas killed himself. Matthew 27:3-10. Satan had entered in Judas, but when he had accomplished his evil, left Judas. The love Judas had for Jesus is what broke him when realizing he was wrong for betraying him. But regardless, it was God’s plan and purpose just like with Job, wasn’t it now? Just think about this for a moment. Satan was given permission once again. He came upon Peter to prevent Jesus in a deceptive manner not go and be crucified, immediately after Peter had proclaimed Jesus the son of God.

From light to darkness, good to bad, righteous to unrighteousness when would it ever stop, the conflict in man because of sin. Between both Peter and Judas only God can judge. And just because Judas killed him self doesn’t mean his sin was greater, it was once again choice. God surely didn’t kill him, he predicted he was going to do it. Matthew 26:24. Peter had felt exactly the same way after denying Jesus and decided was to quit being a disciple and go back to fishing. Jesus after his resurrection went to Peter to restored him back to fellowship. John 21.

Psalm 51, the psalm of forgiveness proves, according to David verse 17 “ The sacrifice of God is a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart, O God thou will not despise.”

The wages of sin is death and we all die, no one lives forever. None is without sin, so we can’t cast any stones. Romans 7:18-22For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law, but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me.

There’s no greater love shown to humanity than Jesus who laid down his life for us with an unconditional love in spite of our ingratitude. “Crucify, crucify him was the shout, from those who followed him received miracles and those his haters whom were envious and jealous and fearful of him. The stranger who only knew him for what he had said and done. But as a man would do, Jesus didn’t retaliate with malice or hate, especially to those closest to him like Peter who denied him and Judas who betrayed him. Jesus had predicted everything that was going to happen to him, yet he surrendered to it all without any repercussions to anyone other than himself; allowing them to crucify him.

As followers of Christ, we know we have an enemy within(ourselves) and without(devil) to conquer. Jesus was one with the Father, as we his follower must also be one with him. How can we be following him and don’t have love in us as he does for all sinners? Unconditional love, is what allows you to surrender like him when crucified, not on a cross, but in your heart and mind, so devastatingly wounded, a hurt to the point of brokenness of your spirit. We are of flesh and blood, but the comfort of the Holy Ghost, the gift of Jesus to us, within guides and gives us the strength to press on.

The greatest commandment said by Jesus is one, love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. And the second is, love your neighbour as yourself.

Let’s not loose sight of what Jesus came into this world to do for humanity; how and why it was done. John 3:16- 17 For Gos so loved the world that, he gave his only begotten Son…For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. It all began with love when God had sent his son and end with it. His presence is found whenever love strongly abides.

I rather say being Christ like, than following Christ. “Why? Because I acknowledge and accepted when I was baptized, He’s in me and I in Him. With no strength nor power of my own, I surrendered.

Being baptized was the best thing I had done for my life. I thought life will be smooth sailing from then on. I had believed according to what I was told or maybe misunderstood, and that is, baptism was going to make every bad thing in life better. I would be delivered from the bondage of sin, and set free. But I was ever so wrong, and it was the beginning of a troublesome, fearful, trial of my faith in God. Jesus was led by the spirit after being baptized to go on a retreat, fasting and praying, so was I. No solid food to eat just hot water and sometimes glucose in it. But I was fed in the spirit , I never felt hungry, neither thirsty. God is real!

Everything was great like I had expected it when being Christ like, but then the devil show up when I felt like I was walking on air, just floating in the spirit in His grace and glory. I felt like what the Israelites and Aaron saw on Moses face after coming down the mountain from the presence of God, Exodus 34:29-35. As I walked in my calling about my Father’s business, preaching, teaching, healing and prophesying… The threats to my life and family was frightening and unbearable. Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” They don’t glorify the Father, they are too busy trying to destroy you for the light, God is completely out of their mind and thought. If they would acknowledge God, they would understand it’s His light not yours. You are just Hid vessel. The devil takes control over them, and they become deaf, blind and ignorant and gravitate to possess what I call Cain mentally. After killing his brother Abel had the nerve to ask God, “ am I my brother’s keeper.” Genesis 4:1-13.

Never have I ever believed when I had excepted to be Christ like, I was going to be crucified like him for loving and caring about humanity with their ingratitude, envy and jealousy. Those you love and all who are acquainted, like Jesus disciples, also are affected by being judged, hated and outcasted because of you. Your light is an influence to draw people in a positive way, but negativity also gravitates to your light, I had to learn and accept. It’s your tears and pleas of the heart for the love of those who wrongfully hurt you and cries for your persecution for no apparent reason you; your haters. God knows and understands a heart issue, love that kills a person quickly on a cross. When you are able say, “forgive them they know not what they do.” But if you’re bitter and resentful your bones will be broken and only then you die fast.

It took me years to recognize and understand that, “ even though , I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil…Psalm 23:4 and Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn…Romans 8:31 “If God is for you, who can be against you? I was filled with fear, doubt and hopelessness. I didn’t keep my eyes on God, walking in faith. I was distracted by the sight of the things going on in the world. Faith can take you out of the world’s reality into Gods existence of glory and all truth of “the meaning of life is?” Romans 8:28 “All things God works for good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Truly lost my way going through menopause. I remember going through puberty, and boy to me, it felt like I blew through it so fast, only because I couldn’t wait to be grown up. But there’s nothing like being already grown and not looking forward to go any further, age wise. You know the older you get, time is no longer on your side. Tick tock, tick tock, the clock is counting down on your youthfulness, vitality, wittiness, good looks…surely, but slowly fading away. The only thing left in you is to grow in wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the meaning of life. I felt at times life is changing my appearance and mind once again completely different from the day of my birth. These stages in life, from in our mother’s womb, infancy, toddler, childhood, puberty, adolescence, adulthood, middle age and then senior, it seems like we never stop changing, so we can grow in the grace and humility onto our Heavenly Father as preparation to present ourselves in his presence.

No woman should have to be ashamed and embarrassed to be told you’re just like your mother, it should be an honour and greatest compliment. As a woman of God it is a blessing to walk and be seen with virtue and grace. A woman of God daughter should be an reflection of her in His grace. When you feel like you’ve lost yourself, God some how allow you to find out and see who you are through your daughter in her characteristic, personality and in the way she interacts with others. What has she learned by observing you, woman of God and mother. The love and bond between you both would helps in the recall of “I remember when,” the moments of your life like video on rewind, you reflect. I found this to be a fact in my experience with my daughter. I recall praying to God to bless me with a daughter and finally the blessing was bestowed upon me and it changed my life. I knew from the day I looked into her eyes as I held her in my arms at her birth, my life had to reflect all I wanted for her, especially with my relationship with God. And this can only be attained with an unbreakable relationship with the Heavenly Father. I believe this is not something hereditary, but spiritually. I truly believe my daughter is an extension of me God wanted to remain in the world after I passed on. Everyone I meet would say such good things about my daughter reminded me of the things I heard people spoke of me that also made my father so proud to say I’m his child. My legacy may not be material or anything I have done spectacularly for me to leave in this world, but God’s light within my spirit shine through her. The bond I have with him is also with her. Now that I recognized it in her, I have to train her in the way she’ll never depart and pray that it remains, for the struggle and fight I’ve endured I know she also will endure in remaining close to him.

Not every mother can recognizes the spiritual implications of being a mother and the importance of mother daughter relationship with the strong bonds to God. The greatest example of this is Mother Ann and her daughter Mary, the mother of Jesus. Not mentioned much about in the Bible, but this mother and daughter dual God has used to change the world. Mother Ann started with her faithfulness in God. She was past child bearing years when Mary was born, it is believed that Mary was also miraculously conceived as Jesus was conceived later by Mary. It is written that Mother Ann taught her small daughter to read scripture and she was taken to the temple to live among virgin. Mother Mary continued in faith as her mother had taught and she observed of her mother. She was chosen to be the Mother of Jesus. From these two faithful women, we are to look how far all Mother’s and daughter has come or should have come in relationship towards one another and especially due to their deep bond in faith and relationship to the Lord.

Let’s all be aware of our calling as mothers and daughters by walk in faithfulness unto Lord with love, unity and humility together whether you’re a mother biological, adopted or spiritually.

Ask yourself the one question no one can answer besides you, “is God real? No one can answer that question for you, not your parents or going to church. Some of us go through all the emotions and traditional rituals in hope some how we’ll attain what it takes to be spiritual and grow spiritually.

We’re in the ninth month, September 2023, which to me is about birthing and shifting from one thing to another. God is calling for us to not only change, but to recognize the changes we’re going through. We’re equipped for the calling in our lives. For so long fear, known as anxiety, mental health issues, curses, words of men mouth has fallen upon you, lies of the enemy, envy, jealousy, hatred…has taking hold. But it’s time to be loosed from this bondage. It’s a generational curse that has been like a ball of chain you’ve been dragging around all your life that the lord has now given you the wisdom, knowledge and understanding about. You can’t be free if you don’t know or acknowledge your bound. We can see for other, but as a child of God, He see for you.

When God has called you, it’s from the time you’ve been conceived in your mother’s womb. Everything about your life, good and bad has been preparing you for the plan, He has for your life. You may get off course, but some how or the other faith brings you back on track. You’re not like other people. You can’t do what others do and get the same results. Your path always leads to an expected end, His Will. You can’t cheat, lie, or manipulate. Truth is revealed in you alway, so you have to be careful in what you do and say. You’re a light, when you just want to be normal; hidden and discreet. Your good works is through Him, because no power or strength do you have of your own.

When you’re down, no one can take the credit for lifting you up. He sees and knows everything about you. When He doesn’t come himself, he always sends someone in your life, a stranger(man or woman of God), family or friend to speak a word to you. He even speaks to you in dreams and in visions. Never allowing anything to happen without a warning. The angels appears to minister and counsel you whatever you may be going through especially when fears and anxiety comes to over you in doing what he has called you to do. Who are the angels? The people who appears and then disappears out of your lives just when everything in okay.

“Our God is a good God!” “And He’s as real as you and I are to one another. Just because we can’t see Him, or prayed and didn’t get what we wanted, never had an encounter or just don’t believe in Him, doesn’t negate His existence. God doesn’t possess us, in other words, forces us to believe in Him. But He ask our permission to allow Him to come into our lives. Just as we don’t have to believe in life or death, but yet it exists, but so does our God, as my testimony.
