Blind Faith- Evidence of Things Hoped For. Yesterday I shared the story about our Atlantic City experience which had the New York connection that I was allowed to witness. The billboard at Times Square was meant for me to see; it was not advertising the Summit in Atlantic City but I felt as though the Lord was revealing something to me that was greater than the billboard and the Summit. This is what transpired on the day of the trip to New York. I drove to the Speedline; we g

Having the Right Connection! This week the Lord allowed me to take two trips, two days apart from each other. Although other people were part of these trips, this is my story being shared to encourage the readers. The messages are not in order for a particular reason. The first trip will be posted tomorrow, and this is the reason. I Feel that the spiritual one should be posted on tomorrow because Sunday is the day that is set apart for me to assemble with other saints in a l

Seek the Lord and He will answer. While watching a sermon from Charles Stanley recently, the message provoked me to evaluate how I am functioning in my call. I have no doubt about the gifts that have been given to me. The point was and is, how am I functioning in my gifts. Charles Stanley was teaching about people who are not walking in their call, and those who don’t know what their call is. This is crucial to receiving eternal rewards. Some people listen to what others say

Never Lose Hope I received a letter from my health insurance stating that heath system I had been with since 2022 would no longer be a part of their network. This was difficult for me especially since I had several specialists. After feeling at a lost due to the change because I had a good repair with all of my doctors. However, I eventually adapted to the change. Although the insurance company and the health system were negotiating, they did not come to an agreement. Therefo

What is spoken is what it becomes. After yesterday’s message about the power of good and the powers of evil, this came to me about the power of the tongue. The principle is the same- speaking negative carries as much weight as speaking faith words. This is what the Word of God says: Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit (Proverbs 18:21). For as he thinks in his heart, so is he (Proverbs 23:7). But those things which proceed ou

Unity Builds the Church; Disunity Tears it Apart! There are two kinds of powers when there is unity – both good and evil. Another kind of power is in the tongue. Since the message about Pentecost was written and the power that was given to believers, I felt that this would be a blessing to follow up with the powers of unity, whether good or evil. Let’s go back to the Old Testament about the people building a tower. Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And i

The Awesome Empowerment by the Holy Spirit! Ever since that day I was baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. That day has been a Pentecost for me. I am a Pentecostal at heart! Everything that the Lord stated on the day of Pentecost is still relevant today. being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6). There isn’t one thing celebrating Pentecost Sunda

“Ain’t No Stopping Her Now!” This lady outshines them all! She is the Dominoes Queen in two places: Lindenwold Towers and the Sarah Norcross Center in Lindenwold. I don’t know if it is because of her experience of getting more skilled in the many years she has played dominoes, or if it is like this: “If you got it, you got it!” Whatever the case she is our best. We thank the Lord for her smiling face and friendliness to all she meets. She also does something special in the bu

All of the people of God are to speak blessings over others; this is not just for certain leaders to speak blessings. This belief may have southern roots; the reason being, during a conversation with a niece who was born in the north, she never heard this before. Nevertheless, it is worth sharing and bringing about truth in case the same belief is in other places. Some pastors believe they are the people’s covering and they should not leave church service unless they receive

Test – discern spirits Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the wo

The Deception Behind Sorcery (Pharmakeia) – Legal and Street Drugs AI- This chapter describes the fall of Babylon, symbolizing the ultimate judgment of corrupt systems and societies. Betty- Please be mindful of the time period. A prayer partner and I were in a discussion about the influence that drugs have on so many peoples’ lives and no family is exempt from it. During the conversation, the Holy Spirit brought to remembrance what will be happening in the latter part of the

Every child of God has been commissioned by Jesus to proclaim His Gospel. Years ago, I heard a pastor say on live TV that pastors are commissioned to carry the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He used this verse: How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those

A Day That is Not to Be Forgotten Lest we Forget! Honoring all men and women served in our country, the United States of America. While watching the news, it saddened my heart to see how so many of our people who served this country and were never recognized or compensated in a way that brings them dignity. There is no new thing under the sun. That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun (Ecclesiastes 1:9

The Greatest Memorial Day Ever! Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends (John 15:13). Since this the day that I attend church service, the day that I believe Jesus rose from the dead; (Sunday- first day of the week) according to the Roman calendar. I felt it would be appropriate to honor the most memorable time in History. Jesus was in the military, warring against the devil and his demons. This was a most unique kind of war, like none o

Precious Memories, How they Linger! Memories of Jackie’s son are forever in her heart. August is the most difficult time (the day Anthony lost his life in Iraq), yet Memorial Day Celebration in the park annually helps to keep her spirit up. Knowing that so many others care and support this event is comforting and appreciated. During our conversations when traveling with her to various places and especially to Anthony’s gravesite, I heard the pain in her voice and have seen th

True Love in Motion Barbara and Vernon- A son’s love for his mother is still being proved by his actions. Praise the Lord for such a wonderful goddaughter who I met around 1991 and our connection has been ongoing from the very day that the Lord ordained for us to have that relationship. It started in Camden, New Jersey and came back full circle physically after I relocated back to Jersey. This story/testimony is about a son’s love for his mother and how it is still being prov

What happens when the Holy Spirit takes control. Why would anyone think that praying in tongues is not Biblical? Maybe it’s because so many people have abused their tongue language and it turned others off. If praying in tongues is not Biblical, then why is it in the Word of God, and why do I pray in tongues (in the Spirit)- God does not have respect of persons, and I AM NOT from the devil! Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For he

Praying the Correct Way Brings Good Results I hear people saying that they need to physically do specific things when demonic activity rises and continue to increase. I had a conversation with someone recently and was asked a question as far as how to pray or what method is used. Well, I gave them the answer according to the Word of God. Jesus was a prime example of not being the presence of someone and healing resulted. This does not mean that Jesus didn’t lay hands on the

What a Great Adventure! Three of us left Lindenwold around 7:30 yesterday morning to catch a bus from Philly to New York. Well, it did not turn out like we had planned, because God had another plan (James 4:14-15). I truly believe that nothing is wasted with God, therefore what happened the entire day was the Lord’s will for us. At the bus station all the attendants were so hospitable and accommodating, and we thanked them. Since we were already in Philly, we decided to make

I learned about this scripture years ago and how it connected with the two judgments and all the time various messages were posted about the difference between a saint and a sinner. In essence a saint cannot be a sinner; many people, even some pastors say: “We are Sinners” Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His he meditates da
