"Does HE ignite a fire in you?" . . . HE should

Psalm 104

¹Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with Honor and Majesty.

²Who covers yourself with light as with a garment: who stretches out the heavens like a curtain:

³Who lays the beams of His chambers in the waters: who makes the clouds his chariot: who walks upon the wings of the wind:

⁴Who makes His angels spirits; His ministers a flaming fire:

⁵Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

Psalms 104 1-5
NKJV
Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He demands you to kneel and bow before Him in all of His Majesty and Glory to Honor Him?
Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He commands that you lay prostrate before Him in His Chamber of Prayer while He ministers to your broken and contrite heart?
Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He asks you to walk towards Him, with your eyes affixed on no one except Him, telling you that you are His and that forever He will reign as King in your life?

Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He hides you in the cleft of a rock, to protect you and fight on your behalf like a soldier in a great army?
Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He leans down in all of His Greatness and whispers in your ear and tells you that you are His Daughter and that you are destined for greatness?
Does He ignite a fire in you,
When He touches the deepest places of your soul and constantly reassures you of His Unfailing Love, Power, and Everlasting Love for you?
He is Awesome in all of His Ways
He is The Lord of Lord and King of Kings to the women
and men who will receive Him
He is our Royal Majesty, let Him reign
Because there is none who is worthy of such praise.
Ladies, when we are honoring God, it teaches how to speak and minister to the men in our lives.
Yes, He should ignite a fire,
and we should always keep the fire burning

Are You His Lazy Love ( r ) ?

O God. Thou my God; early will I seek thee; my soul thirsts for You, my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; to see Your power and You glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

Psalms 63: 1,2

He enters the room in all of His Glory, His Awesomeness, His Power and Might
And He reaches for you, wanting to embrace you, to touch you, to caress you, and hold you in His Arms.
He cradles you, reassuring you of His Protection, and Everlasting Love; saying that He will always love you.

Do you tell Him who He is to you.
Speak the words of your heart, reaffirm Him.

Its three o’clock in the morning, and He gently touches you on your shoulder, wanting to spend quality time with you.
Do you gladly arise with tenderness, and anticipation to prepare, with fragrant oils and frankincense, myrrh
Put on your finest robe of silk
And anxiously await knowing that He never fails
His Love is sweeter than honey
And that He is wanting you to tell Him that He is Faithful,
That He is Awesome,
And Strong
There is no one like Him
You will never leave Him
That you can’t make it without Him
You need Him
You love Him
Tell Him
That He’s such a Great Provider
That you appreciate Him

Tell Him that you are who you are because of Him
When He leaves that you can’t wait for His return
Because He gives you Balance and Peace

Has "He" Seen You Naked?

And he said, Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree, that I commanded that you should not eat?

Genesis 3:11

Single Mothers,
where were you when He first saw you naked?
Did you try to hide?
Did you cover yourself with the branches, or cloth?
There is no longer a reason to be ashamed.
God wants to see you naked before Him.
He wants to see you exposed, bare, and natural.
Don't be afraid to let Him see you.
He made us and He knows us inside out.
If we would just consult Him about our true naked selves, He could love us and teach us to be more confident in Him.
He is our Creator, He can heal us.
Show Him the scars, and bruises of life.
Tell Him how they hurt, and ask Him to cover you with His blood.
God is such a loving God, that He will touch, and He will heal all of those hurting places.
Take off, shame
Take off disappointments
Take off anger,
hurt,
your whoreish ways,
profanity,
worry,
fear,
burdens,
excessive drinking
abuse
take off self destruction
take off stress
take off the old and put on the new.
Go ahead, strip, take it off ,
Take it all off.

He said, "Relax and let me love on you."

When Jesus speaks to me, I get peace that passes understanding.
When Jesus speaks to me, the Power of God takes control, and the billows cease to roll.
Single mothers, I am certain that all things do work together for our good.
Jesus is speaking to us.
He is whispering sweet words to us, that will give us peace to relax and know that He has everything under control.
Having a relationship with Him, is like none other.
He will tell you things, and you will not want to leave.
You will want more and more and more.
Learning to let Him love on you, is only fine tuning your senses to what real love is. And it will help you identify what to expect and demand in a relationship.
It teaches you how to be still, and hear and enjoy love and its refreshing sounds.
We have not been attentive to the words that were being spoken to us. And because of it, we've lost out on some really fabulous relationships with people.
We are nurturers and we always want to do all the loving, and caring and we don't know how to receive what He has sent especially for us.
Stop!
God wants to love on you, and teach you what His Love really feels like. So that you will be so sensitive to His Voice, you won't resist His Real Love when it comes.
We have been in control so long, we don't want to let go.
So we struggle.
We fight like a fish that have been caught in a net trying to get away, because it doesn't not feel natural to us; but it should.
So lets try it.
He is saying to you, "I Am, is in control today, and if you will be still for this moment, I have something I want to give you. And I have words that I haven't been able to say to you in a long time."
Do you remember what that feels like?
Take this moment to enjoy, He is waiting on you.

He said, "Relax and let Me love on you."

Find Your Way . . . .

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Galatians 6:9

(KJV)

Find your way Single Moms, there is a reward for what we do.

We love,

help,

uphold,

uplift,

reassure,

provide,

caress

create,

and we can look forward to the great gifts that will be given to us in return.

Take Time To Pray,What Does God Have To Say ?

Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

James 5:16

(KJV)

Single mothers, take out the time to listen to another.
You might hear that one little thing that others did not. This will give you the opportunity to pray and ask God to help her with her situation. You might even pray and ask God if there is something that He would have you to do.
There are so many small opportunities that we have to help, and to make a significant difference in the lives of other mothers. Imagine, your prayer helped a mother.
And now she is a place of nurturing, peace, patience, and love for her family.

Isaiah 40:29-31 . . . Why I Wrote My Book

²⁹ He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
³⁰ Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
³¹ But those who wait on the LORD
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

Isaiah 40:29-31

(NKJV)

Single Moms I wrote "I Don't Want To Be A Mom Today !!!," after being reminded by this scripture that we will get to the point where we can't go on. Even the best of us gets weary, and feels like there is no need to keep pushing. Of course we know that this is the enemy's tactic to stop God's children. He will bring whatever he can to stop, detour, trip, kill, or distract you.
But I thank God for a woman of God who used this scripture to encourage us one day.
He (God) is the Power source to the faint, and strength to those who have lost might.
The scripture even reminded us that the youth (our children) will faint and be weary.
But God reassures us that if we wait, He will come to the rescue.
I often hear a lot of people speak as if hardship will never come their way. My prayer is that is doesn't, but if it does here is some scripture to give peace in the midst of the storm.
I never knew that I would experience such tough times, to this degree.
It seemed like it all came all at once.
So much stress that I couldn't remember songs that I sang every Sunday.
Or simple things that I should have remembered, but it was too much, I had to stop.
Thank God that I had a chance to plug back into Him and get a recharge.
The scripture was life to me.
I studied and prayed and rested and prayed and studied and rested. God had previously reassured me, that He would send people my way and not to worry, and He did just what He said.
Everything changed.
I couldn't have imagined things as they were. I started to used my journal as source of comfort as I waited. Because it was not easy, having to come off of work. And I had this beautiful little girl depending on me and now she was waiting too. I lost friends and associates.
But, I kept writing and one day I had enough to compile as a book. After some rough spots, challenges, encouragement and prayer I went ahead with it and today I am an author of a book.
I never would have thought, and there are more to come. One day the Spirit of God encourgaged me while praying, that whatever I wrote He would publish it.
We never know what the road ahead holds for us moms. Stay with God. Pray to Him.
Love on Him, and watch what He does.

I Need You Because Two Are Better Than One

Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
Ecclesiastes 4:9
(KJV)
"If I've made this much progress alone, then just think what we could do as a team."

This could be a powerful statement when speaking to our loved ones.
we can encourage our children to join in on projects, or ask our guy friend to participate and even work better with friends and co workers.
How we say things is so important as to how much we can get accomplished.
Saying, the words "I need you," doesn't show a sign of weakness, it only says that I would like your input and your support to make this the best that it can be.
Two are better than one, so the enemy attacked the family structure to try and cause it to fail. He grasped the understanding of how powerful a woman and man are when caring for a family.
It is a difficult task for a single woman to lead alone, but she can with God. Maybe she had to walk alone for a season to understand her role as a woman and how much power and influence she really has alone. And to understand that God created the man first, and that He understood the dynamics of male leadership.
Thank God for making up all the difference, when we are walking alone.
He is like no other to hold hands with while taking long walks.
His partnership is a guarantee that you will never walk alone, and that anything that you want or need will be provided.
What a friend we have in Jesus.

Does It Takes A Fool ?

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

Matthew 5:43-44

(NKJV)

Single moms remember the old song that says, "It takes a fool to learn that love don't love nobody."
Maybe he hadn't heard the Word.
God is giving us a chance to prove His love to man, not to prove our love. Because our love will fail, over and over again.
But to love a man or woman that despise you, that doesn't want anything to do with you, that talks about you, that wants to destroy you, WELL, that brings on a challenge.
Who in their right mind wants to love someone that feels this way?
Not me.
But none the less Father, if it means that You and I will remain in relationship, then not my will but Thine.
To be able to communicate with my Father and understand His Perfect Will for my life is so much more valuable to me. So even if you really don't like me, it's okay.
Ask God how to love your enemy and to what degree.
Our Father will have the last say.,
so here goes
I Love You!

So What If Doors Are Closed !

“Thus says the LORD to His anointed, (that means you too single moms)
To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held—
To subdue nations before him
And loose the armor of kings,
To open before him the double doors,
So that the gates will not be shut:
² ‘ I will go before you
And make the crooked places^a]">[a] straight;
I will break in pieces the gates of bronze
And cut the bars of iron.
³ I will give you the treasures of darkness
And hidden riches of secret places,
That you may know that I, the LORD,
Who call you by your name,
Am the God of Israel.

Isaiah 45:1-3
(NKJV)

Single moms, while going through life, we will experience closed doors.
So What?
Most of the time it has nothing to do with what we have done wrong or what we haven't done enough of.
It is simply God taking His Supreme Position in the matter.
We never really know what is behind the door. The experience may not be what we expect.
But God, with His Infinite Wisdom and Knowledge can see ahead and can determine the outcome on our behalf.
There are cases where people won't believe in you, because it is not the normal, or there is a so called formula for getting things done.
When you are asking God, the way is not always familiar. So then we will have to trust Him, and Him alone to open closed doors, or find new paths to follow.
He can get you where you need to go, and get you there in time.
Trust Him.

God's Favor . . . Is More Precious Than Anything In Life

³ And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people.
⁴ Then Moses said, “Thus says the LORD: . . .(read more)

Exodus 11:3-4

(New King James Version)

Single moms, when you have the favor of God, its is priceless. I say this to you because, when God speaks a Word on your behalf, people, things, and circumstances has to change;everything must obey His Commands.

Imagine, praying and waiting to hear the Voice of God. You are asking Him, how can I get this task done, (tear filled eyes, broken heart and a contrite spirit, not knowing what to do) except You speak to me, or speak to Your Friends to help me get this task complete.
And then He says, "Thus saith the Lord, or (This is what I have to say to you about the situation)
This changes everything around you, because not only will He speak to you, He will speak to men and women, that He has strategically positioned to aid you on your journey
So don't you worry or don't fret . . .
continue, be encouraged, be strong.
His Favor is all you need, it is as precious as life.

. . .Will the real "Mr Love Jones, please stand up ?

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.

Isaiah 55:8

You think that "Mr. Love Jones", could have been someone special for you, but the season is off, and God is not the creator of confusion.

He is a God of order.
Stay in tuned with Him for what you will need, for the real "Mr Love Jones." Moms, while you are waiting for "Mr Love Jones," God will be polishing you, your skills, your mind, and your spirit. He is getting you well equipped to understand the man that He has selected especially for you.
Girl, you will be so amazing, that "Mr. Love Jones" will have to ask God, "How can I get her and please God , tell me how to keep her?"
Will the real "Mr. Love Jones" please stand up?

(an excerpt from the book, I Don't Want To Be A "Mom" Today!!!)

There Is No Other Name That Is Higher

¹¹ This is the ‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.¹² Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
Act 4:11-12

There are people in our lives, who we'd love to call 0n, but there will be no answer. We call on our best friends, our lovers, our parents and family all by their names, and there is no healing, no power, no deliverance.
There is not even comfort.
But the Name of The Righteous Lamb of God, Jesus . . is the only name you will ever need.
Call on the Name that is above all names, Jesus, He can help you in every situation.
Don't be afraid, say it "Jesus", and experience the difference.
