On The Other Side…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Good morning, Precious Family:

I pray that this week’s letter finds you in the peace and stillness of God. No matter what each of us faces, as children of the Most High, please know that whatever we are going through, no matter what troubles or attacks, we may be facing, God is right there with us.

In the same way that the enemy asked God for permission to attack Job, God allowed it because he trusted that His servant Job would pass the test, just like God trusts me and you.

Job had so much thrown at him. The enemy took his children, his way of making money by destroying his flocks, and attacked his body with sickness and disease. The attacks were so bad that his friends just knew that Job did something to cause all of this. Even his wife was telling him just to write God off and die.

What was Job’s response to all of this?

Job essentially said:

The same way I came here is the same way I’m leaving. No, I will not curse God! Even though I’m going through something now, I remember how faithful God was before this season of hardship. I know how much God blessed me before this season. I saw how God enlarged my land and my family before this season. No, I will not curse God and die because I know him to be my Provider, my Sustainer, my Healer, my Peace, and my Lord.

Family, it’s only a test. Keep pushing and keep pressing. Fight your way to the Throne Room of God. Stay in a posture of worship, even when you hear the enemy telling you to curse God. No!!!! We are children of God. We know that if we keep our eyes on God, we will make it to the other side, where our blessings are waiting.

Holy Scriptures

Job 2:1-10

Easy-to-Read Version

Satan Bothers Job Again

2 Then another day came for the angels[a] to meet with the Lord. Satan joined them for this meeting with the Lord. 2 The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you been?”

Satan answered the Lord, “I have been roaming around the earth, going from place to place.”

3 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you noticed my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him. He is a good, faithful man. He respects God and refuses to do evil. He is still faithful, even though you asked me to let you destroy, without reason, everything he has.”

4 Satan answered, “Skin for skin![b] A man will give everything he has to protect himself. 5 I swear, if you attack his flesh and bones, he will curse you to your face!”

6 So the Lord said to Satan, “All right, Job is in your hands, but you are not allowed to kill him.”

7 So Satan left the meeting with the Lord and gave Job painful sores all over his body, from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head. 8 Job sat on the pile of ashes where he was mourning and used a piece of broken pottery to scrape his sores. 9 His wife said to him, “Are you still holding on to your faith? Why don’t you just curse God and die!”

10 Job answered, “You sound like one of those fools on the street corner! How can we accept all the good things that God gives us and not accept the problems?” So even after all that happened to Job, he did not sin. He did not accuse God of doing anything wrong.

Family, stay encouraged and stay close to God. Don’t allow the enemy to get you off track. You have come too far to turn around now. Keep pressing through and strengthen your faith. On the other side is a blessing with your name on it.

I love you with the amazing and everlasting love of our Lord and Redeemer, Jesus, The Christ.

Making Our Intentions Clear

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Good morning, Precious Family:

I am so happy to be writing this letter to you. I pray that since we last communicated that you have dwelled and rested in the Peace and Stillness of God.

We have such a loving, caring, and transformative God. The totality of God – The Father, God – The Son, and God – The Holy Spirit has literally changed my life since I was a young child.

One of the things that make me unique is that I am a born again, Five Fold Ministry believing, Law of Attraction, Universe understanding Christian. I know that God embodies all of it and at the same time, I have an understanding of each aspect.

One of the most important aspects of Universal Law is to make our intentions clear to the Universe.  

If I say, to the Universe:

“I Am a woman who is going to transform the world around me through sharing God’s Love, Mind, Healing, and Freedom through music, counseling  and ministering to the needs of others. I am connected to all things that are good, hopeful, joyful, and healing. I will be connected with those who have similar intentions. I know that God will place me at the right time, in the right season, and with the right people. I walk  in unity with God, and I am never alone. I let it be so, and so it is, in the name of the Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. Amen.

My prayer was intentional, clear, and in agreement with the Call that God has on my life. I learned very early in life to pray and come into unity and alignment with what God has spoken over my life. My prayers were always, “Father, teach me how to pray YOUR WILL over my life. Allow my words to come into agreement with what has already been spoken and decreed in heaven.”

That is what it means to make our intentions clear. If you are not sure, so to God in prayer and ask for there to be clarity in your life. Go deeper in the Lord and get to know God’s voice.

Holy Scriptures

Matthew 5:14-16

New King James Version

14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Good morning, Precious Family:

Oh, how I always miss you when I don’t get a chance to write. I pray this letter finds you in the perfect peace and will of God. If so, I know that no matter what is going on in your life, you will be able to face anything.

One of my absolute favorite gospel songs is entitled Will of God by the Clark Sisters. Karen Clark-Sheard featured the song on her Finally Karen live recording. The recording was the first time that the world was introduced to her daughter Kierra “Kiki” Sheard.

Karen was not only teaching her daughter in the family way of music and worship, but she was also teaching Kiki about spiritual warfare. Here are a few lines from the song that Karen was teaching her daughter:

The devil knows in all the world
There’s danger in the Lamb.
The safest place in the whole wide world
Is in the Master’s Hand
It may be on the battlefront
Or in, or in, or in the prison walls
But wherever, wherever, wherever it may be
If God says “Go,” if God says “Go,”
You put your trust in Him!
Go! If He says go! If He says go! If He says go!
You do what Christ tell you to do! You said go!
Go! Go…

Family, this is the reason that I always share a worship video with you at the end of each devotional letter to you. I know that you may not remember the words that I wrote, but you will remember the song that was played.

I was called to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ from a very young age. As long as I can remember, I have been connected to Christ, and I know His voice. What I want for you, more than anything, is to be covered and protected by God.

Please, keep the Lord in your heart. Seek Him with all you have. Study the Word of God so that you will be able to separate and distinguish His voice above all others. One day, it may just save your life.

The SAFEST PLACE is INSIDE the will of God.

I love you all with the amazing and everlasting love of our Lord and Savior Jesus, The Christ.

Thinking Things Over…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Good morning, Precious Family:

Thank you all for your kind words as I took a much needed hiatus. Life is still super busy, but it is manageable, as I have had to learn a new faster past.

This morning, I woke up with the song, “I’ve Got a Testimony.” Part of the song says,”When I look  back over my life and I think things over. I can truly say that I’ve been blessed. I have a testimony.”

Family, with all that I have been through, all the good, bad, and different things in-between, I, too, can truly say that I have been blessed. No matter what the oceans of my life are doing, the presence of God has maintained a constant peace in my heart, mind, and soul.

What is your testimony, family? What has God brought you out of? What can you truly say about the goodness of the Lord?

Holy Scriptures

Acts 22:6-21

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Paul’s Testimony

6 “As I was traveling and near Damascus, about noon an intense light from heaven suddenly flashed around me. 7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?’

8 “I answered, ‘Who are You, Lord?’

“He said to me, ‘I am Jesus the Nazarene, the One you are persecuting!’ 9 Now those who were with me saw the light,[a] but they did not hear the voice of the One who was speaking to me.

10 “Then I said, ‘What should I do, Lord?’

“And the Lord told me, ‘Get up and go into Damascus, and there you will be told about everything that is assigned for you to do.’

11 “Since I couldn’t see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and came into Damascus. 12 Someone named Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good reputation with all the Jews residing there, 13 came and stood by me and said, ‘Brother Saul, regain your sight.’ And in that very hour I looked up and saw him. 14 Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know His will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the sound of His voice.[b] 15 For you will be a witness for Him to all people of what you have seen and heard. 16 And now, why delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins by calling on His name.’

17 “After I came back to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple complex, I went into a visionary state 18 and saw Him telling me, ‘Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about Me!’

19 “But I said, ‘Lord, they know that in synagogue after synagogue I had those who believed in You imprisoned and beaten. 20 And when the blood of Your witness Stephen was being shed, I was standing by and approving,[c] and I guarded the clothes of those who killed him.’

21 “Then He said to me, ‘Go, because I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”

Sharing the Lord’s Peace

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Good morning, Precious Family:

May the peace of the Lord be with you. I pray since the last time we talked that you have been well and in the perfect peace of the Lord. Notice that I didn’t say that your life was perfect and simple, as that is not always the case. What is always is a constant is our Lord’s peace.

I do apologize for my silence for the past month. As you know, I am a real person who always tries to be transparent and honest with you. I’m in the final stretch of completing my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) has been my dream for a very long time.

Currently, my plate is very full. I am working full-time, working on my internship site at counseling center, and taking classes this semester. Whenever I have a lot going on, it takes me a couple of weeks to get use to my new pace. Needless to say, I have been burning the candles around both ends.

What has sustained me and given me hope has been the peace and grace of the Lord. I know to run to The Rock (not Dwayne Johnson) when I begin to get weary, tired, and confused. Jesus is always there, ready to embrace, sustain, and renew me.

Scriptures of Peace

2 Thessalonians 3:16-18

New International Version

Final Greetings

16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

17 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand, which is the distinguishing mark in all my letters. This is how I write.

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

The Message for 2024

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Greetings, Precious Family:

I pray that 2024 has greeted you with purpose and hope. I always take time at end and beginning of each year to reflect and to listen.

This year, this is what God put on my heart. I shared this message on my personal Facebook page, but I want to share it here as well with you.

In 2024…

In 2024, guard your heart, mind, soul, spirit, body and time. You, and everything about you, are precious and priceless. You are not a sweater, and you will never go on the discounted sales rack.

Make 2024 the year you walk into your destiny. 2023’s purpose was to prepare you for greatness. Your season is almost here. Be ready because God is getting ready to pull the curtains back and show the world the Great Work he has done in you.

I pray for your journey. Stay the course and resist the urge to return to your comfortable and familiar places. The new road has been paved and is ready.

Do not get ahead of God, but instead walk in cadence with the Call. I look forward to seeing you on the Path.

My Grace Is Sufficient…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Good morning, Precious Family:

The Holiday season is in full swing. Decorations, gifts, shopping, preparing for a new year, and the food and parties. A good time had by all. That is what it’s all about, right?

Over 2000 years ago, Grace took the form of a little baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. Mary and Joseph watched over the Anointed gift as the angels of heaven proclaimed and celebrated his birth.

In the New Testament, in the 12th chapter of 2 Corinthians, the Apostle Paul was explaining that he asked God to remove what he called a “thorn from his side.” Paul said the he asked three times and this was the answer he received:

Scriptures of Grace

2 Corinthians 12:6-10

New International Version

6 Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say, 7 or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Family, in 2024, may we learn to walk in the graceful strength of God. When something seems insurmountable, ask God for the boosted power of his grace of his strength to flow through you.

Allow God and Grace to lead the way. Make 2024 the year of God’s Grace. As Paul said, in our weakness, through God’s grace, we are made strong.

Jesus Thinking…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To Wholeness2 Comments

Greetings, Precious Family:

I pray that your hearts, minds, and souls are in a place of perfect peace in Christ Jesus. It took me years to realize that my words and the energy behind my words are so important. Jesus was my first teacher on why a person’s mind, mouth, and heart must be in synch with heaven (The Lord’s Prayer). 

Even though the Bible says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7), I didn’t understand that universal law applied to everything IN and every area OF my life.

There have been great teachers in my lifetime that have helped me to apply and understand the scripture passage that says, “Life and death are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21).

For me, it was Jesus who taught me to think differently. It perplexes me when people seem to be afraid of the way Jesus taught and thought. The same fear is present when people discuss New Thought.

In 2014, I graduated from the most amazing seminary. I am a licensed and ordained New Thought Christian Minister. It has always been the goal of this devotional to help you go deeper.

Many people think that the term “New Thought” is threatening to Christianity. Little known fact, New Thought or what I like to call “Jesus Thought” was spread by Christians who wanted to be more like Jesus and not so much live by the letter of religious law. Which is in line with the Bible, as Jesus encouraged us to do even greater things than he did. Why does thinking how Jesus taught us to think scare people?

Jesus was hated and ultimately crucified for thinking and responding with love FIRST. The law was important to Jesus, but caring for sentient beings was the MOST important.

Are we afraid to be who Jesus called us to be? Are we afraid to do greater things, as Jesus instructed? As Christians, please do not allow a label or a word to scare you. Just think like Jesus, teach like Jesus, and live like Jesus, and you will be just fine.

Scriptures of Higher Thinking

Philippians 2:1-11

New International Version

Imitating Christ’s Humility

2 Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
    by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

The Universe Speaks…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To Wholeness1 Comment

Over the last several days, I have been consciously speaking out loud and coming into agreement with the healing that God wants for me.

I can always tell when God is shifting me. I let out a series of guttural, soul-shaking screams and moans, followed by tears from the deepest part of my soul.

It is not me that is doing it, but the spirit inside me that is updating me with the most recent program updates for my life from heaven, because my prayers are that I learn to be on the vibration of heaven (on earth, as it is in heaven).

In those moments, I am reminded that I am a spirit having an earthly experience. In those moments, I get the results of my spiritual final exam for the semester. Did I pass? Did I fail? Do I need to repeat the course again, or do I need to change majors all together?

Scriptures of Revelation

1 Corinthians 2:9-16

New International Version

9 However, as it is written:

“What no eye has seen,
    what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”[a]—
    the things God has prepared for those who love him—

10 these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit.

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. 11 For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12 What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.[b] 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 15 The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, 16 for,

“Who has known the mind of the Lord
    so as to instruct him?”[c]

But we have the mind of Christ.

Family, I know that I typically send out devotionals on Wednesday, but this COULD NOT WAIT!!!! Our lives are not our own. We are here for a reason. In order to find out that reason, we must be connected to the heavenly spiritual realm.

If you have not already, may I suggest you read last week’s devotional dated 11/30/2023.

I love you, Family. We are moving higher together. We are one in the Spirit. They will know US, by our Love.

It is with the amazing and everlasting love of Christ that I seal this devotional. ❤️

Our Father…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To WholenessLeave a comment

Greetings, Precious Family:

I pray that you all had time to reflect and be thankful for the many blessings in your life, over the holiday weekend. Whether it is your family, your health, or your ability to be able to talk to the Creator of the whole world, there are so many things to be thankful for today.

There are days that even though we are grateful, we still go through trials and tribulations in this thing called life. One thing to remember is that we are never alone. God promised to never leave us or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6).

On more than one occasion, in conversation, someone would talk to me about something they were going through. Inevitably, at some point in the conversation, they would share their frustration in not knowing how or what to pray for in their particular situation.

I would always remind them that Jesus had already taught us how to pray in Matthew 6:9-13.

Our prayers should be structured in this format:

1. Give God and the Kingdom of Heaven honor

2. Acknowledge that you want to be in agreement with what has been spoken and decreed in heaven.

3. Our prayers MUST be in agreement with the will of God. Our prayers are for what has been spoken in heaven to manifest on earth. It is not about our will.

4. In prayer, it is not about what we want. Ask God to teach you how to pray in agreement with heaven (Your will be done. Your kingdom come, on earth, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN).

4. Ask God to keep you from all hurt, harm, and danger. Ask for protection from any seen and unseen traps, snars, and witchcraft of the enemy. Ask God to teach you how to pray specifically over your home, town, and country, according to His will.

5. Close the prayer by acknowledging the majesty and power of God.

6. Seal your prayer with the all-powerful name of our Lord, Wayshower, and Redeemer Jesus, The Christ, who intercedes for us at the right hand of the Father.

That is the formula to effectively pray in ANY situation.
