Need More
Eph.4:1 “Therefore, I a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. 2 Always be humble and gentle…” [with emphasis].

Source vs. Outlet
1 Cor.12:4 There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all… 11 It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have.”

Sometimes the people that know that you are powerful are your enemies and they are afraid of you. But you are afraid of them too and I wonder why. Is it because you do not know who you are? Beginning from today, Read the rest of this entry
Remain Uncursable!
Num.23:24 “These people rise up like a lioness, like a majestic lion rousing itself. They refuse to rest until they have feasted on prey, drinking the blood of the slaughtered!”

Father’s Love
John 8:32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
