I AM Lord of My Health, My Relationships and My Wealth (2 John 1:2)

There are three major aspects of your life: your health, your relationships, and your wealth. And guess what? You are lord over all three of them. You are in control of your own health. You determine how healthy you are going to be, not history, genes, diagnosis, or prognosis. It is not your family or external factors that dictate your health. You are lord over your health, which means that you get to decide your digestion, what you put in your body, how intimate you are going to be, how much rest you are going to get, and how much exercise you are going to do.

You get to decide all the checkups and doctor's appointments, and then you get to decide how you are going to treat yourself. When you do well, you get to decide about your outward appearance and how you look, your recreation, your fun. You are lord over your health, living a holistically healthy, balanced, and well-rounded life, and you get to decide that because you are lord over your health.

You are lord over your relationships. The Bible says when a person's ways please the Lord, even their enemies are at peace with them. So if you please the Lord, your enemies can be at peace with you. Your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and classmates can be at peace with you when you are at peace with yourself. It exudes in all of your relationships. Your relationships can only be as harmonious as you are healthy. When you are healthy, it causes your relationships to be harmonious because you are lord over every relationship. You don’t have to be in a toxic relationship; you can just leave.

You are lord over your wealth. God has given you the power. The Lord of Lords, the Lord of God, the Lord of Jesus has given you lord over your wealth. You determine how prosperous you are going to be, how much increase, abundance, overflow, and more than enough you are going to have in your life. The economic situation, the country, the stocks, the bonds, your job, and your income doesn't determine your wealth. I am a Tither; I give my tithes and my offering. I am part of another economy, a kingdom economy. So if I sow sparingly, I reap sparingly; if I sow bountifully, I reap bountifully because I am a part of another economy that gives me unlimited wealth. Your income is only fixed because you fix it in your mind. You are lord over your health, your relationships, and your wealth. You can have optimal health, harmonious relationships, and overflowing wealth.

  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...

The Sacred Sunday Posture:  Kneeling “ A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees; if you are willing, you can make me clean (Mark 1:40).” In addition to bowing your heads and closing your eyes, many people learn to “get on your knees and pray.” Often, it’s at night before going to sleep. Parents instruct their children to kneel on the side of the bed and say their prayers. Perhaps you have fond memories of kneeling and reciting the Lord’s Prayer or the 23 rd Psalm. Or maybe you were taught, like me, “Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake. I pray the Lord, my soul, to take. God bless mommy, daddy...” Kneeling is a physical way to revere God as your Creator and remember that God is your Source. “Know that it is the Lord, who is God. It is he that has made us and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture (Psalm 100:3).” Without reverencing and ...

Where Is the Love? Learning to Recognize God's Presence Through Galatians 5

  Where Is the Love?    One of my favorite duets is by Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack: "Where Is the Love?" It asks, "Where is the love that you said you would give to me?" It's a timeless question and one that’s just as spiritually relevant today.    In Galatians 5 , Paul writes to the churches in Galatia about the contrast between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. He helps believers understand how to discern what’s truly of God. And here's the spiritual compass: love is God's signature . "And envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."   Galatians 5:21 (KSB)    Whatever you do whether it’s cooking a meal or making a major decision ask yourself: "Where is the love?" Is love your motive? Is love present in your tone, your actions, your intentions?  Paul’s letter urges us to determine whether we are operati...
