RE-EMERGE and RE-LAUNCH
There are things that you have placed on hold that need to be relaunched in this season. This is the season of re-launching. Re-launch the business, re-launch the ministry, re-launch the product, re-launch the brand, re-launch the training, re-launch and re-pitch the idea. At the word of the Lord, cast your net to the other side and obtain what has been prepared and is waiting for you! For this successful re-launch many of you will have to revise and change your networking circles and strategies.
The Year of the Double
As you know God does not live in time as man does. So, the prophecies that go forth do not expire until they are fulfilled. In other words, if your double does not come in 2022, then look for it in 2023. Every prophecy spoken is not for everybody, but for those who bear witness to the word may the will of God be accomplished in your life. The Lord has said that “whatsoever a man sows that shall he also reap.” It is reaping time for you and manifestation time for others.
Thanksgiving 2021
As my family and I are preparing for the Thanksgiving holiday, I begin to think about the things that have happened over the past two years. There have been pleasant things and well, not so pleasant things that have come my way. I am sure I am not the only one who has suffered either disappointment or loss.

Among these women were breast cancer survivors, those who have gotten their mammograms consistently year after year, and those who had not yet received a one.
Apple of His Eye
Recently, I found myself thinking about my daddy and how much he means to me and how much I mean to him. It’s not hard to see why as Father’s Day is approaching and will be upon us shortly. I thought about how much I love him and how much of an influence he is in my life. My parents split when I was very young but fortunately, I have always maintained a close relationship with him.
Who Do Men Say I Am?
What was being said? Whether good, bad, or indifferent Jesus knew who he was, but had it been revealed to those around him. As he was going about doing good works could they see the true nature of his motives? Could they see he was approved and sent by God? He healed many, casted out devils, feed thousands, and revealed the mysteries of the Kingdom that had been hidden in the Scriptures for centuries. Yet, they did not know who was among them, because they were judging by the flesh instead of discerning the spirit.
Sticks & Stones
Are you facing or have you faced a problem, a situation, or a circumstance that you know is clearly beyond your control? After you’ve made several unsuccessful attempts to fix the problem, have you finally come to the conclusion that you can’t fix it? Tell me, while you were in the midst of this challenging time were you told by a friend, a loved one, or a counselor to just let it go? Did they give you instructions on how to accomplish what seems to be an arduous task? Even though you were not quite sure how to do it you decide to let go. You know you’ve made a sound decision, but is there still something in you that just can’t seem to let it go?
