Be Encouraged Today!

Good Morning and Praise the Lord! As you have seen from the "Breaking News" all this week of the Boston Marathon bombing, the ricin letters sent to Senator Wicker and President Obama to the explosion in West, Texas, there has been alot of lost of lives, changed lives and the potential of fear. There have been wars and rumor of wars - North Korea, Iran and Israel, the Muslism uprising, international and domestic terrorism, but do not let fear come in, do not let your heart be troubled; these things must happen, but it is only the beginning (Matthew 24:4-8). We have already been warned of these times, and we know the meaning of them. Things are getting in place for the return of our Lord Jesus. I want to remind you this morning to continue to pray, continue to walk according to the Word of God. Please continue to evaluate your life to make sure it lines up with the Word of God. Continue to plead the very Blood of Jesus over you and your family, your workplace, your chil...

You know I’ve learned and still learning, that when God speaks – whether He speaks through His Word, directly to your spirit or through a man or woman of God (make sure it bears witness to your spirit) – our response should be “Yes Lord”. But how many of you know that the enemy, the devil, sometimes talks to us too. When the enemy tries to remind you of the person you use to be, brings up a past deed that’s under the Blood or is constantly bringing up the hard situation you’re going through now, your response (our response) should be “But God”! Everything the devil tries to bring up or say to you, there’s at least one “But God” to throw right back at him. Only a few know of the hard times my family and I have just come through. My husband, who has supported our family faithfully, was let go from his job like so many others Americans. We had just had our youngest son, Gianni, and a week later he was let go. Never in a million years would I have thought something like this would h...

Well, Praise the Lord! We just celebrated one of the most important days in the Christian Faith - The Ressurrection of Jesus Christ. If anyone tells you that Jesus was just a "good man", they are sadly mistaken and WRONG! Don't let them tell you that Jesus was not God; He was God made flesh. Just as I wear many hats (Shan the Wife, Shan the Mother, Shan the Daughter - Thanks mom for the clarity), God is God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. God said "Let US make man in our image." If someone tells you that Jesus is not worthy of your praise, well............. I'll keep my opinion on that and say just pray for them. He gave His LIFE so that we can boldly enter the Throne Room of God; so that we can be reconciled back unto Father; so that we can call God - Father, Dear Father (Abba Father). Get in the Word of God and know It for yourself. Don't rely on what others say lest you allow deception to enter. I am not saying to not listen...
