Good afternoon today we will be praying for an Caribbean island, can you guess? Bahamas! Can you believe it! I can because no matter how beautiful something or someone is, it needs prayer because you never know what will happen today or tomorrow. (Source) "Operation World", by Jason Mandryk.

Let's pray for:

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us." Hebrews 21:1

Prayer Request

As I was changing my room around thoughts came to me about praying for other countries. I use to do this as a group but as our group stop meeting we didn't get to pray for other countries together.  I am not saying that they might not be praying for other countries on their own it is we are not praying together. So starting next week I will give you a country to pray for because we all need prayer. Just take out a little time of you day to pray for someone, it will be worth it. Have a blessed day or night.

Spiritual Workout

What is Spiritual Workout?  

-Getting in the word

-Fellowship

-Bible Study

-TAWG (Time Along With God)

-Bookclub

Spiritual workout can be anything or anyway you want it to be as long as you are feeding yourself spiritual food. And the most important thing to do is pray. Prayer is a strong key factor to connect with God, telling Him how you feel or what's wrong with you. Connecting with God this way will open your heart to Him more so you can bond with Him and become as one. Having that relationship with Him will shine a light on your life, so try it I dare you. 

27 You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you, and you will pay your vows. 

28 You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you, and light will shine on your ways.  - Job 22:27-28

Contamination Spirit

Contamination? When I started to write this post for some reason I could not put words together to talk about it.  In that moment my spirit was contaminate by something that was going on with me at that time.  We all have this moment, if we recognize it because at times our spirit can be contaminated for so long that we don't even know until something or someone happen in your life. When I think about comtamination I think about something that is stain. Contamination is a harsh word meaning impure. So when I hear "contaminating the spirit" I think about my spirit being unorganize, grieving, lost and all the things that mean unsatisfied. And with that it bring on angry, fear, worrying, depressed, and so many other emotions. We contaminate our spirit everyday without knowing it. We contaminate our spirit with work, friends, hobbies, and passionate desires. The way we contaminate our spirit with these problems is by putting them before God (Jesus Christ our Savior). I am not saying you have to be perfect, but it a must to fight that contamination of the spirit everyday by praying, getting in the word, getting a accountablity partner to keep you on track. And remember God loves you

"Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!" Psalm 32:11

Weak

Have you ever had someone call you weak? Well I know I have, maybe not to my face but I am sure someone has called me weak before. Back then I would have been really upset if someone called me that, but now I accept it. I accept it because I am weak, my flesh is weak but I do know with God strength and power I am strong. So remember we are weak but with God we are strong. You have to step out of that worldly mind and step into that spiritual mind to understand that. We are weak but with Him we are strong!! Have a blessed day or night!

And Asa cried to the LORD his God, "O LORD, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O LORD, you are our God; let not man prevail against you." - 2 Chronicles 14:11

He has pity on the weak and the needy, and saves the lives of the needy.  - Psalm 72:13

I Surrender

My life began when I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ.  It might sound crazy but it is not. Before Christ I didn't care about too many things that went on in my life. I don't even think I knew my purpose in life was exactly.  I love fashion, but I wasn't too dedicated like I should have been.  Growing up I went to church every Sunday except for the times when my siblings and I was living with our brother.  I wanted to get in the word but my heart wasn't in it the whole time.

I started college and God was still on the back burner, but I went to church every Sunday.  In my head going to church every Sunday was good enough, but about a year later my sophomore year in college I found out it wasn't enough. I have been partying and just having fun without no regrets. Then it hit me! I was in church Sunday morning like always but this time I wanted to change. I prayed to God to change my heart and give me the ears to hear His word.

After that prayer God showed up and showed out as always and brought so many people in my life.  Not only was they believers but young too so I was able to relate to them.  I remember and will always remember the moment I met my dear friend and sister in Christ.  It was a late night in the dorm I was staying in and she came out of some room with another person which became my sister in Christ also.  I don't know exactly what room but I do remember the table we was sitting at in the hallway and talking all night about family and maybe even things we experience in life. I think at that moment God bonded us to be sisters. She hosted a Bible study and I went to every meeting no matter how early it was. I am not bragging but I was there even if I was drowsy. And let me tell you boy was their were times I could not keep my eyes open, eventually I said you know what devil I am not about to let you ruin my time on listening to the word, so I fought hard all the time trying to listen and understand the word.

To this day I am still fighting, because the fight is not over until you are dead. Surrendering your life want be easy but it is worth it, and I don't have regrets but praises for my Father Jesus Christ.

Have a blessed day or night!
