I’ve been woken up all week around 3 am. In the darkness, I sensed an urge to pray. My prayers liened me into a place of suffering. I used to associate long suffering with seasons, but I now understand its divine purpose.

Sometimes we just need to be reminded of the power of heaven. Acts 4:12 says, “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

What do you think of when you hear the word vow? I think most people think of marriage because when you get married, you commit to one another and you say vows to each other.

If you truly want to have an encounter with God, then your heart posture has to be one that says: I don’t just want your stuff, Lord; I want you. Too often, people seek God for what God can do for them.

Old ways won't open new doors; they just take you back to places you should not go. You have to learn from your mistakes. Too often, people continually do the same thing over and over, and for some reason they expect different results — that's insane.

Merge is such a powerful word. When you merge with something, you combine or unite with it. You blend gradually by stages that blur distinctions; individuality and uniqueness are merged and blurred.

Have you ever met a person who leaves you saying, " Wow, that person is solid through and through.” I have many of those people in my life and I honor and cherish them.

As you go through life, you realize that life itself is priceless. There’s truly nothing greater than sharing life with people you love. I’ve been weaving in and out of deep sadness this week as I approach a birthday.

Some people want to be anointed by the oil of heaven, but they don’t want to be crushed in preparation for carrying it. I’ve been crushed. Death, divorce, abandonment, fire, and destruction have crossed my path. In the suffering, I never blamed God.

Have you ever gone down a long road or gotten off the wrong exit and had to make a deliberate turn to get back on track? If you have, I believe this word will make perfect sense to you. There’s something in the atmosphere right now, where there is a supernatural turning occurring.

When you unmask something, you reveal its hidden truth. Instead of seeing what the devil wants you to see, I believe God wants you to see something completely different. God wants us to fight the battles we face with such maturity in Him that victory is inevitable.

This is a great word. I believe we are in a season when God is awakening a vision so we can prepare for it and then launch it in 2027. Spiritual vision means the inner ability to perceive unseen realities, divine truths, and a higher purpose beyond what the physical eyes can see.

This is a word that we have probably all struggled with during some period in our lives. Control means to have power, authority, or restraint over something. Weight loss is a great example.

Strong word today. And it’s a singular word. I didn’t sense God say wait for it, or just wait, or even wait and it will happen. No, I just sensed WAIT almost with an exclamation point (!). For me, I know exactly where to apply this, and I’m sure if you thought about it, you would too.

The word instill means to slowly and gradually put an idea, feeling, or value into someone's mind. A great example is a parent. Parents try to instill good manners and a love for reading in their children.

Powerful word today. Silence, in essence, means complete absence of sound. Today, God is asking us what are we doing in our time of complete absence of sound? Interesting right? I don’t think we ever really think about that.

When you unleash something, you release it from being restrained. Sometimes I believe we can be our own worst enemy. We overthink things, we doubt things, and we stop ourselves from doing things before we even start them. Today, God wants to unleash something within you.

Learn from others but never become them. God created you to be uniquely you. If you’re in a work environment, learn from your boss, learn from your managers, but resist your desire to be them. We live in a world that encourages us and almost trains us to follow other people.

What would you do if you knew that tomorrow would be your last day here on earth? This question reminds me of how my son Jared lived every day. From the moment he woke up to the minute he went to sleep, his day was filled with experiences.

I’ve been sitting in this word for a little while now, and I believe God is trying to minister to us so we can truly see what He sees when He looks at us. The world we live in continuously creates atmospheres where we may feel broken, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that we are actually broken. Feelings can be very deceiving.
