There is so much going on in the world today. Amid everything happening, many voices are expressing a wide range of opinions and political views. Additionally, there is no shortage of false prophets operating in Christian spaces, which adds to the confusion of the times. In a world that often feels chaotic and confusing, those who place their hope, confidence, and trust in the Lord do not have to feel lost. There is stability in the Lord Jesus Christ.  

I love now the Amplified version of Ephesians 4:14 reads, “So that we are no longer children [spiritually immature], tossed back and forth [like ships on a stormy sea] and carried about by every wind of [shifting] doctrine, by the cunning and trickery of [unscrupulous] men, by the deceitful scheming of people ready to

When life feels unpredictable and the world shakes beneath your feet, Psalm 91 stands as a sanctuary of peace and promise. It is a declaration of faith and a reminder of God’s unwavering protection during difficult seasons.

During the pandemic, I witnessed many lives being lost, which intensified my fears, particularly for my family members who are doctors and nurses. Their profession required them to risk their own lives to save others, and personal protective equipment (PPE) became a crucial lifeline for them. No. Their FAITH in GOD was their lifeline. In God, we TRUST. Throughout that challenging time, I relied on prayer and placed my trust in God.

One family battled cancer, COVID-19, and heart issues, and I feared they would not make it. Yet, today, he is alive and thr

This morning, the words of scripture where Jesus said, “Watch and pray,” resonated in my spirit. When Jesus found his disciples sleeping in the Garden of Gethsemane, he told them to watch and pray.   

I remember something that was said about the late Evangelist Mildred Boyd. It was said that she would fast and pray on holidays. While others would enjoy holiday festivities with food, family, and friends, she would choose to fast. When asked why, she would respond, “Someone has to stay on the wall.”

In other words, someone should be praying when everyone else is relaxing or has their guard down. The Bible says, “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” I. Peter 5:8 (NIV)

“Watch a

Although life is full of challenges and obstacles, the deliberate actions of others can serve as the fuel that ignites our motivation to keep pursuing our goals.

For me, it was my childhood pastor who always prayed and laid hands on me before I left for college. His wife would always say to me before I would go, “Don’t leave town before seeing me and the Bishop.” I also cherish the simple things in life, like when my mom used to make my favorite banana pudding for me to take back to my dorm. Banana pudding has always been my favorite dessert. During high school and college, my church youth director was a constant source of encouragement and support. She has since become a lifelong friend. Many people have invested in me over the years, and I am grateful for their belief and encou

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you are desperately searching for an answer to a life-altering problem but can’t find one? Life can throw many challenges our way, and as women, we often face unique experiences and obstacles. The journey can sometimes feel overwhelming, whether navigating career choices, balancing family responsibilities, or overcoming personal struggles.

In the story of the woman with the “issue of blood,” we see her determination to seek healing despite societal barriers. Her faith in finding a solution led her to touch Jesus’ garment, and she was miraculously healed. This powerful narrative reminds us of women’s strength and resilience in adversity. (Mark 5:25-34 and Luke 8:43-48)

Just like the woman who su

Today, I grapple with thoughts like “God can change any situation” and “God is in control” as I observe less-than-ideal situations. Though motivated to pray, I must also take action and do more. Perhaps a simple conversation with specific individuals could resolve the issue. I aim to discuss my concerns and reach an agreement. However, sometimes I am unsure if the problem is my fault or a situation beyond my control. It can be frustrating, but I remind myself that God is in control, and I must trust Him. This motivates me to pray even more fervently, and if I really need God to intervene, I know I must fast and pray with urgency. Ultimately, I trust that God will show me the way forward.

At times, we may experience situations where we feel powerless, and the weight of it can be d
