For Us That Are Hurting




I think we all feel pain right now. We are all groaning in the flesh. These times are hard. We are suffering in pain that no one can see. Fighting for our lives... Spiritually and physically. When will there be a cure? Jesus is the healer... So where is our cute? We keep falling when He has promised us wings. We keep lying when He said He's the Truth. When will we see the effect of His mercy? When will we fly on wings like eagles? When will we RISE?

It's time.

Time to take off the blindfolds.. It's not HIM... It's us. We have been falling for much too long. It's time to RISE.

How to RISE?

•Let go of the past.

Seriously let it go. Strive forward. You want healing but you keep clawing yourself. You want hope but every time you see a glimpse of it... You turn around to see the dark. Let God. Let God. You're free. Let go of the chains. You're free. Let go. Let God. You're free. Free. Free.

•Forgive yourself.

You're beautiful. You're handsome. You were made for so much more. We are messy. Too messy. That's why we need Him. None of us are perfect. Some of us are just good hiders. But trust me, no one can hide forever. We were made to fly... Not cower in the dark so no one can see. Rise, embrace these tattered wings.

•Look up.

Where you put your eyes and your mind, this is where you go. So if you want to fly high above the windy waves of life... Lift your head and take your eyes off the mess. Jesus will hold you... But you have for to LET HIM and LOOK TO HIM for help. Look up.

•Listen to the good things.

Keep your mind under control. After all, what you think about is what you have complete control of more than anything. Focus. Focus. Focus.

•Surround yourself with the Light.

How? How in the world can I do that when it's dark everywhere? Create your own light. Better yet, let JESUS light up your world. FOCUS ON HIM. Talk to Him all day, everyday... About anything and everything. He is listening, and if you focus, listen, and call out.. You will hear Him too. It's not hard. Don't let the devil tell you that. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Submit to Jesus Christ. ❤️

•Lift off

Raise your hands. Give it all to Jesus. Stop relying on your own strength to fly. You simply can't do it alone. None of us can. Not one. WE ALL NEED JESUS!

READ ROMANS 8.. Hope and Light. It's all because of JESUS.. We have HOPE THAT DOESNT DISSAPOINT.

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
(Romans 8:1-39 KJV)

Jesus, thank You. It takes a load off our shoulders...Your burden is LIGHT... We don't have to be perfect... We can't be. Thank You for being God. Thank You for dying for us and being perfect. Taking the guilt for all our shame and sin. I PLEAD THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST OVER ALL OF US IN JESUS NAME! I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD SUPERNATURALLY OPEN OUR EYES. Awaken us that sleep and make us strong to fly and run. WE LOVE YOU JESUS! SHOW US YOUR MERCY AND GRACE AND STRENGTH! BE STRONG FOR US BECAUSE WE ARE WEAK! I SEND ANGELS TO PROTECT US ALL IN JESUS NAME! IN JESUS NAME, AMEN!

Life In Knowing You And Freedom From All Fear

 This summer, I had the privilege of going to the best church camp of my life with my youth group. The experience we had at this camp seriously changed our lives... and I can speak on behalf of them because we all agreed that Jesus used those five days to move us.  

Words cannot describe how heavy the presence of Jesus was in those services. Worship was amazing. I can feel Jesus just talking about it now. There was a song that they sang a lot during worship called "Promise." This song was written by the ministry itself: Youth America. Every time they would sing the lyrics to this song, I would just cry out with pure passion in what I was saying... "I find life in knowing You and freedom from ALL fear!" It hit me so hard. I really feel like there are some people reading this that just feel stuck. I gotta tell you, I understand this. It's not even just a feeling. It's real.. and it's not suppose to be that way. The Bible tells us that we are called to freedom. This, my brothers and sisters, is so true.It's not just a philosophy that we are to believe in. There is proof behind this.

Are you one of those people that need proof in order to believe something? Like, you have got to experience it yourself for you to know it is what they say it is? Well, that is me. I believed Jesus was real, but i was stuck... hurt... empty... lacking. I needed that proof for myself that Jesus was who He said He was.

A couple years back, the summer of 2011, I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. This was that missing puzzle piece that I had been lacking. I had always tried to fill in that void with things that promised fulfilling. But I hadn't truly felt whole until I received the baptism of Jesus's spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. (Acts 2:4) 

This is the Love that I always wanted. True Love.

In Acts 2:39, Apostle Peter says that this gift is for everyone who is placed on this earth. This is for everyone who Jesus calls to be here.(that's all of us) This is a PROMISE and it is for you and generations to come.

In Acts 2:37-38, someone asked "What do we do?" Peter told them exactly what to do....Repent, be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.


Romans 8:9 says that anyone that does not have the spirit of God inside them isn't His.

John 3:5 says we must be born of the water and the Spirit to enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

This is truly what set me free. You are called to freedom. 

"Ask and you will receive, seek and you shall find, knock and the door will be opened to you." ~Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:7)

"For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another." Galatians 5:13

Thank You Jesus for this FREEDOM! Heal us today! Make us FREE! I plead the blood of JESUS CHRIST over everyone reading in JESUS NAME! I ask that You would fill them with the Holy Ghost as they seek You, Jesus! SET US FREE! In Jesus name, Amen.

Rise In The Dark

She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
(Proverbs 31:15 KJV)


We are the Church. We are the Bride.

Things may be dark, but we must RISE. Someone has to RISE UP. Let us RISE and prepare for the sunshine that is coming.
It may be dark now but the sun will SHINE AGAIN!


Jesus, thank You for showing us this. Things may be dark now but, LORD, You give us the strength to RISE!!!!!! I plead the blood of JESUS CHRIST over every reader in Jesus name. Show them how to walk, run, fly. I send angels to protect and minister to us all in Jesus name. Amen. Hallelujah!
