Navigating Life with Purpose: Insights from My Spirit Led Journey 8-7-26

Pressing On the Upward Way- Gaining New Heights Everyday!

The Lord has enlarged my territory, increased my borders, and widespread globally, despite all the ups and downs, struggles and discouragements, trials and persecutions, I made it this far walking by faith with the help of the Lord.

For every loss there was gain, because I count it all as nothing compared to my life with Christ. t indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ (Philippians 3:8). I went through what some call “hell and high waters” for years, UNTIL the Lord released me. I certainly believe it was because I scored high on all most of the tests.

It was absolutely necessary for me to endure those humbling experiences in order to be where I am today. I was stripped twice, but the gain of trusting in God with what some consider little income, living form pay check to pay check, Yet in trusting Him with all my heart God is doing something in my life that blows my mind and others as the testimony of His goodness is shared every opportunity I get.

Now, I don’t want anyone to think I have dotted every eye and crossed every tee. However, from the time I was born again, my heart’s desire has always been to please God. There have been times when I operated in the flesh but I also repented. Why? Because being a child of God the Spirit who lives us, convicts (convinces) that we were wrong.

Proceeding with what is going on in my life at the present time. If I had not gone through all those challenges, persecutions, hard trial and tribulations, my ministry would not be what it is today. During these past almost five years of being back in New Jersey, it was necessary for me to get acclimated to the new environment. Even with that being said, physical challenges, people challenges and the devil’s challenges helped me to grow and rise above my circumstances through the grace of God.

I hope you don’t think my troubles are over; in fact, the more I grow and understand the Word of God, the harder the attacks, onslaughts, fiery darts are targeting me, but again, it is the Lord who helps me and instead of focusing on who or what tactics the devil uses, it increases my faith and I keep it moving in the name of Jesus.

At this present time the Lord has opened wide doors of opportunity, just as the Spirit of God told me during the last of 2025 that 2026 was a year of broadening my ministry and expanding my borders, all praises, honor and glory be to God my Father.

Lost some readership because some people don’t agree with some of my writings; yet I have gained many more readers because God’s Word will accomplish what He purposes it to.

What to take away- This message is for the readers to know that whoever does the will of our Father, He will do things for and through you that are unimaginable.

God bless, and always, thanks for your readership and support.
