National Day Of Prayer

You can do it bowing on your knees, postrated or standing. You can pray out loud or you can be silent. Prayer is man way of conversating with God. He’s waiting to talk to you.

It’s been a while: Evicted from Egypt

It’s been a long while since I been here. My have there been changes sinceI last logged on.  Last time I reported, ironicly was on New Beginnings; indeed it has been. Things have shifted. I’m in a state of transition, I am headed in the direction of the promise-land. The Land that is flowing with milk and honey. I was evicted from Egypt (translation: I was laid off), and now on a journey through the wilderness. I think God, decided not to take me straight through; but is taking me on the backside as he did with the Children of Israel. I looked in the book of Exodus for a road-map for this journey because I don’t want a eleven day journey to be a forty year process.

I must admit though, me and the C.O.I very well have similar characteristics, so I understand the reason for not sending me with a non-stop flight to destiny.  I  hate uncertainty with a passion. I am analytical, which does not mesh with the unknown. I have to see everything laid out in plain English with step by step instructions. Legends will be helpful to. 

But that don’t fly with God, that’s not operating in faith and he never reveal the whole plan. He only reveal the step your suppose to take and you want get the next step until the one you were given is complete. Wait! He then put us on a scavenger hunt. You won’t get the next clue until you reach the place that holds it.

Am I the only one that think God, got jokes!

Now that I think about it, I must be heading out to get my clue! I’ll let you know what I discovered.

 

Hunting for clues,

Success is the reward of…Diligence

Diligence never hurt nobody.

The word speaks volumes about a person of diligence. One thing that is reoccurring when speaking of diligence, is…Reward and Satisfied. Solomon, talks in great length about diligence and slothfulness in the book of Proverbs.

He points out the contrast between a person of diligence and slothfulness, he even address, “How much talk leads to penury”.

 Ponder upon the following scripture verse and allow it to minister to you.

Proverbs 13:4

The sluggard craves and gets nothing, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.

This scripture sums it up. Your goals, dreams, or aspirations will not come to fruition, with nothing short of hard work, diligence and perseverance. Success comes at the price tag of inconvenience. If success came with convenience, then every one will obtain it. You have to strive and work for what you want.

Success is not given; it’s earned.

Don’t talk about it.. be about it.

The book of James declared it best, “Show me your faith by your works”.

Faith and Works go hand-in-hand. They work in conjunction with one another for manifestation. Faith, can not work alone, in the sense that its a verb which require ACTION on your part. I know Romans 4:17 states …”call those things that be not as though they were”. However, be sure to quote this scripture as you work and walk in the direction of success.

Points to Remember:

~There is reward in diligence; the diligent shall be fully satisfied

~ The sluggard (lazy person) craves and gets… NOTHING

~Don’t talk about it (All talk and no game)

~Faith and Works need to marry in order to produce…Results

             Success is expecting your Arrival…

Be Blessed,

Danietra

Happy New Year…Happy New Beginnings

IT’S OFFICIAL

We are thrust into  2008…The doors of 07 is officially closed.

What does the year of 2008…BEHOLD???

One thing I am for certain that this year will produce NEW Beginnings. Keep your eyes  open cause if you blink. You will miss out! Watch, I say.

2007 produced completion and perfection. 2007 had it’s perfect work so that you will be ready to launch into New Beginning in the year of 2008.

2008 will render restoration, revelation, responsibility, release and reward. There will be the restoration of families, restoration of health, restoration of lost goals and dreams.

There will be an out pour of fresh revelation. Revelation and insight to things that remained a mystery, revelation will shine forth to all that seek it.

There will be a out break of responsibility. People will take responsibility for their families, lives. Responsibility will be first to ones self and extended out ward. The ownership of seeing the cause and effects of situations, taking responsibility for the family, the role one play in the relationship that of husband and wife, parent and child, and being a member of society.

There will be a spirit of release. Everything that was hindered in the previous years, the goals that went unfilled in-spite of your effort and diligence, that you sowed. The sowing was not in vain and there is a release of seeds sown and planted.

Finally, there will be reward to the diligent, those that are faithful shall see the reward.

Because you have stood fast and have lived an unstoppable path of faithfulness, despite all trials and tribulations that entered your life to deter you, you stood the course and ran the race, with all opposition against you and for that reason your reward, shall manifest.

I declare and decree that  2008:

Will bring marriages back together. There will be a restoration in the marriage relationship. Marriages shall live and not die. Marriages is an institute that is established by God for, His mission and purpose. Marriages shall be fruitful. I speak life into every marriage and estranged marriages shall be reconciled.

Salvation for the masses: There will be a spirit of receptivity to salvation. So every watch man of the Kingdom, it is time to be positioned. God desire to use you as a witness, to plant the seed or water the seed sown that He may give the increase. Position yourself to be available because the harvest is ripe and there is an equal amount of laborers, cause the prayers have already been made to the Lord of the harvest, to send forth laborers. Guess what…He’s sending you.

The Now Generation will stand and proclaim the works of the Lord, the manifestation of Joel 2:28. And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;

Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams,  your young men shall see visions.

This is the year that this prophecy shall began to unveil, with power and authority in the earth. Your sons and daughters shall live a life of faith.

There will be a confrontation for the sake of purity, the truth of sex will be exposed and there will be an alertness and a standard of purity. Purity will be honored and there will be a reformation unto Purity as a life style.

Those that are chaste and pure unto the Lord, will walk undignified…Promoting A Life Style of Purity… There will be a stand: Purity As A  Way Of Life.

People will not perish because of the absence of a VISION. There will be a realization and pursuit of purpose. There will be a gaining of Knowledge that none shall be destroyed for the lack thereof.

Finally, what I desire to leave with you on this first day of the New Year is. Make Matthew 6: 33 your MISSION.

“But SEEK first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness…

Let this scripture be the thread that interwoven the pattern of your year.

Happy New Year and New Beginnings

Be Blessed,

Danietra

Boiling Point

 

 Are you in a heated situation, and you are at your boiling point?

The lesson I learned from boiling water and pinto beans…

When boiling water after a long period, there is a white film that rises to surface, after the water has reached a degree of boiling. I have also noticed while cooking pinto beans; that once you put the beans into the water particles of beans floats to the top.

 In looking at the similarity of what takes place when you boil water and pinto beans in contrast to the life of a believer. The boiling water and beans conveyed a spiritual truth. 

  God, places us into boiling situations to deal with the film or particles that arise. He does this with the intention of confronting areas in our lives, that will other wise go unnoticed and unchecked.

Unless the heat was on!  So think it not strange that you have found yourself in a heated situation. Now you need to ask the question. What does God desire me to confront and deal with in my life?

Become aware of the film of: a bad attitude, bitterness, quarrelsome or maybe particles of: worry, fear, disbelief or doubt these are just to name a few. When you are boiling it causes all the impurities to surface to a visible level to be dealt with.

When it floats to the top, do not ignore it. They arose for the very purpose for you to take action in confronting, dealing and eliminating them. If they continue to go unchecked, then they will boil over to other areas of your life and the clean up will be greater than if you would have addressed it when they started to arise.

Now that I think about it MTV, use to air a show titled Boiling Point. The theme of the show was that they send a decoy out, and this person would go up to random people and aggravate them for a period of time, if the person respond negatively, before the allotted time expire then they are disqualified, but the person who successfully endure the antics of the agitator would be rewarded with a $100.00.

In either situation win or lose the decoy wait until the time lapsed to disclose to his target that he/ she is from MTV’s show Boiling Point. That show tells a lot about a person. What was in them; was made apparent from what did or did not come out of their mouth.

Rather it was anger, frustration or patience, it was made known. Like the show…

Decoys enter our life in the form of situations; trials and sometimes-even people to assist us in the areas that God desires to grow us in.

When you reach your boiling point be aware that what’s in you will definitely come out and if it’s negative then that is the very thing God wants you to confront.

Like the show you do not know the purpose of the testing until it’s over. Pressure always has a tendency of exposing, the truth.  

 

FIT Friday: Recovering from Thanksgiving indulgence

Because we know that Thanksgiving, is all about the food…The turkey, ham, calorie induced stuffing, mash potatoes, macaroni, greens,cakes and pies…alone would damage a diet.

So below are a few tips on how to recover from the feast of Thanksgiving.

Information is courtesy of John Hopkins Medical as a service to Yahoo.

  • Drink plenty of water and other low-calorie, non-caffeinated fluids. Fluids help to flush out toxins from our body. Our kidneys must do the hard work of filtering out the toxins and they need water to their job. Drink as much fluid each day as is comfortable for you. 
  • Choose lower-fat foods. Our bodies have to work longer and harder to digest higher-fat foods. Give your digestive system a rest and choose low-fat alternatives. 
  • Include high-fiber foods. Fiber is the body’s scrub brush; it can help sweep out your colon. 
  • Aim for lots of fruits and vegetables. These foods are not only naturally low in calories and fat but also high in fiber. Over these three days, eat less protein and starchy foods and fill up on fruits and vegetables — aim for six to eight servings per day.
  • Don’t forget about exercise. Exercise itself is a great way of detoxifying the body. Plan to go for at least a 30-minute walk each day.

And what about all the Thanksgiving leftovers? You can save and freeze some of them, but don’t feel guilty about tossing away the sweets and higher-calorie and -fat foods. This will save you the calories later and you will be the healthier for it!
