Mission 007…

Good morning, Precious and Beloved Family:

On my drive into work this morning, I was listening to my favorite radio station. A song by Zauntee came on entitled “Oxygen.” The words of the song just washed over me.

There is so much truth and testimony in that song. Jesus is the Breath of Life and I can’t live without him. My purpose and identity are  completely wrapped up in my relationship with the Lord and the calling and purpose he placed on my life.

In the Gospel of John, Jesus appeared to the disciples after his resurrection. He had them in a room and breathed his spirit into them and gave them instructions on how to live. It is His breath that gives us purpose and direction. Without God’s direction and Holy Oxygen, how will we know how to please Him? That is why I love Zauntee’s song so much.

Scriptures to Live By…

John 20:19-22

New International Version

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” 20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.

21 Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 

22 And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Songs of Thankful and Praise…

Family, our identification is in Christ alone. Ask the Lord to breathe His Holy Spirit inside of you so that you may work in unison with the will of God.

There is nothing more frustrating that to feel like your life has no purpose or direction. It is the Holy Spirit that is holding your life’s mission and direction if you choose to accept it.

I love you with the amazing and everlasting love of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, The Christ. It is in His name that I lift up this devotional. May we walk in obedience and love. Amen

Your sister in Christ,

Preparing for God…

Good afternoon, Precious Family:

I am looking forward to sending out a devotional message every Wednesday in 2023. I always take some time, at the beginning of the new year, to get direction from our Triune God. I’m excited about what is to come.

Get ready!!!!

Next week, we will begin our devotionals for 2023. I pray that you would meditate in the Word of God in preparation for the year.

Our Prayer:

Our Holy Father, we bless your name, which is above every name. Prepare our hearts to hear from you. Position us in a way that we can get the best reception of your will, voice, and direction. Allow us to be laser focused on you. We come against every trap, distraction, and seen and unseen snare that may try to derail us from our calling and purpose for the Kingdom.

Bring into our lives those people whom you have ordained and allowed in this season and give us your heavenly wisdom to know and recognize the length and time-span that they will be in our lives.

We know and understand that every person, place, or thing that was with us last season may not be ordained by you to come with us in this season. May our will, mind, and emotions be obedient to your will.

Surround us and cover us in your most precious gift, the precious resurrected blood of your only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Thank you for the angels and ancestors that you have assigned to our lives for protection and direction. We love you and place nothing else before you. In the name of our Redeemer, Jesus, The Christ. Amen.

I love you all with an amazing and everlasting love.

Rev. Marcia Davis

Strongholds, Principalities, and Witchcraft…

Good morning, Precious Family:

I’m sure the title of the devotional has gotten the attention of many of you. The reason for this devotional message is because God needs us to take back our position as prayer warriors, Intercessors, prayer wailers, and worshippers.

I’m not sure if God’s chosen earthly army is just tired of fighting or have been deceived into thinking that what we are experiencing in today’s world is anything other than a serious spiritual battle for the souls on this earth.

Please, Family, if you have been given the anointing and mantle to be a worshipper, Intercessors, wailer, or prayer warrior, please go back to your post. We need you. The battle is in high gear and we need everyone to stand up and put on their Godly armor in the spirit realm.

Ephesians 6:10-18

New International Version / The Armor of God

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

This week’s worship video is from a woman of God I truly honor and respect. My greatest desire is to see her worship live. Pastor Shirley Caesar.

Be blessed, family. It’s time to go to work and take the Kingdom of God back.

Glory to God in the Highest…

Good morning, Precious Family:

I pray you all continue to be in a place of peace in your heart and mind. Circumstances may change, but the God we serve is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.

Recently, I faced a setback in my educational journey. I’m almost at the end of my Master’s degree. I have been working as an intern at a counseling center since August. Through a set of unforeseen circumstances, I found out that the counseling center is closing, which means that I will have to forfeit my time training there and find a new location to train and intern next semester.

Yes, having to start again is not convenient, but I have a peace knowing that God already knew the ending from the very beginning. I trust God’s process through it all. I can stretch my hands to heaven and say, “Glory to God in the Highest.” My heart is filled with a peace and a hope for the future.

Luke 2:13-14

King James Version

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Family, no matter how the circumstances may appear, God always has the FINAL WORD. Amen. Be blessed and be still in your mind and heart.
