Permanent
Read – John 1:1-18

Scripture: “I AM the Lord your God, I do not change (Malachi 3:6).”

Denial: “My identity will never change.”

Affirmation: “My spirit is wholeness. My soul is healing. My body is

manifesting that health.”
I AM is always permanent because it speaks of us as spiritual beings.
The I AM is that spiritual part of us that is, always has been, and
forever will be. Spirit is everlasting and is not limited to form, time,
or space. Our spirits take on forms called bodies. When the Spirit
leaves the body, it continues to be, because it is permanent.
Because I AM is permanent, it is essential that we never attach the
words, I AM, to anything that is not permanent. We are never to
associate the words I AM, with anything that is not eternal. For
example, many people say, I am sick, to describe the feelings of
discomfort or pain that they may be experiencing. They also use the
words, I am sick, to express a diagnosis or prognosis that they have
received from a doctor.
In reality, the I AM is not sick. God is not sick and has never been
sick, nor is the I AM of our being sick. It is better to say that I feel
sick because feelings are temporary. Feelings fade. Saying I feel sick,
reminds us that this is not a permanent condition but a temporary
experience. Describing sickness as a feeling, renews our minds
about the truth that I AM health, and this sickness did not come to
stay, it is just passing through our bodies.
Reflection Question: What are the things in your life that are
permanent?

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...

There’s a Grace on Your Life

  There’s a Grace on Your Life "By grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."    Ephesians 2:8 (KSB)    In Ephesians chapter 2, one word stands out repeatedly: grace . But what is grace? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, His love poured out on us, not based on anything we've done or failed to do. It’s not about what we think or don’t think. It’s simply a gift. A beautiful, divine surprise.  Imagine receiving an unexpected bonus at work, you did your job, and suddenly you're given more than you earned. That’s grace. It comes when you least expect it and fills you with joy and wonder. This is how God extends His grace freely, abundantly, and lovingly.  Throughout Ephesians 2, Paul highlights how grace is woven into our salvation. “By grace you are saved” means you didn’t do it yourself. Salvation is the awakening in your spirit to the truth that  you are God's beloved .   ...
