 The Closer I Get to God (Jeremiah 27: 2). 2 June 2023

The closer I get to God, the more-free I become; God flowed through Jeremiah as a vessel to show the children of Israel what bondage look like. God said put a shackle, put a yoke around your neck, put bonds on your arms and put shackles on your feet and he was showing them what bondage look like.

He was showing them that God was able to set them free and so the closer you get to God the more free you become because you will know the truth and the truth will make you free. The person whom the son sets free is free indeed.

Yoke around your neck talks about inflexibility when you are in bondage. There is a yoke around your neck and you are not flexible to be able to turn and see various perspective. You only see one perspective, you are inflexible. And when God frees you, you are flexible. You are able to see various perspectives and you are not stuck in your way of doing things.

Take the bonds off their arms, off of their hands. When you are in bondage you are not free to use your abilities, gifts, talents, and skills, sensitivities that God has given you and God is saying when I free you, you are free to use all the abilities that I have given you to get wealth. I have given  you power to get wealth, use  the abilities that I have given you  to get the wealth that you desire and so when you are free, when your hands are free  then you are free to use  the abilities  that God has given you.

Take the shackles off of your feet. Shackles have to do with your mobility, your movement and when you are free, you are free to move, you are free to move about the country for every place that your feet walk God has given you the land. He says you are blessed, coming in and blessed going out blessed.

God is freeing you to be able to move and so today I AM telling you the truth that there is a level of freedom that is available to you.  The closer you get to God the more freedom.

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

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 ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
