Be Encouraged Today!

I will bless the Lord at all times. I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth. I am so blessed to be a child of God, a daughter of the Most High. Jesus is definitely the reason for the season, and we as Christians should strive to be just like Him. He is the ultimate role model. As I look back on this year, I had some highs and some lows, good times and bad. But with all the trials and tribulations I had to go through, I came out victorious. Looking back I can see some growth personally and spiritually, and this should be happening with us all; we should be able to see some growth even if it is very little. We should all be improving in some area(s). Hebrews 6:1-6 states: 1 Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death,[a] and of faith in God, 2 instruction about cleansing rites,[b] the laying on of hands, the r...

Do you understand how important it is for you to pray for your thing? In other words, you should pray for that which you want God to do for you. Now, there is absolutely nothing wrong with getting others to pray in agreement with you, but you have to pray too. Some many times people want you to pray for their thing, pull their need in for them, and they do not even pray themselves. The Word of God tells us in Matthew 9:29 – according to your faith, let it be done unto you. Jesus was telling this to the blind men, but it is the same for us as well. All things are possible to those who believe. It’s according to YOUR faith, belief that when you pray the Word of God will come to pass, not the pastor’s, not the evangelist, not momma and daddy’s faith – YOUR FAITH! If you can believe that when you pray God’s Word and receive it, it will come to pass – it be done unto you. Yes, you can ask the pastor, the evangelist, momma, and daddy to add their faith to yours. The Word of God als...

Well, the newest and very last addtion to the LPC's (Loud Pirozzi Clan) arrived on September 9, 2011. I went into the hospital around 6:00 AM and had Gianni at 10:52 AM - WOW! Praise God. I had an awesome birth experience which made up for the last one. Everything went just as I hoped it would; as a matter of fact, Gianni was trying to come on his own. Dr. Russell did an AWESOME job in delivery & the nurses in delivery were kind, compassionate & fun. It really was a wonderful experience. But during this pregnancy, I dealt with alittle depression (I don't know where they was coming from). Even on my worst days, I don't let thing "keep" me down; it might come, but it never stayed like this. I wasn't reading or praying as I should, and I had a really bad attitude (pregnant horomones included). None of my other pregnancies did I feel this way. I mean, I know what's at stake here. I know that Jesus can come back any day now. I know, as I hav...

Good Morning: Last night I had this song in spirit. First I began to hum it; before long I was singing the words out of mouth. As I began to sing this song out loud, I began to feel some of the heaviness that had been on me melt away. The song goes like this: Spirit of the Living God, We affirm your presence here. Spirit of the Living God, We affirm your power here. To Heal us, and to deliver us To Fill us, and to change us Spirit of God I made the song personal to me; instead of "we", I put "I" - replace "us" with "me". The Spirit of God is all around us whether we fell Him or not - He is there. The Spirit of the Living God does have the power to heal us of any and ALL sickness, diseases, irritations or discomforts. He has the power to deliver us from any problem or situation we will ever face. He has the power to fill us with that power, and with peace, joy and happiness God wants for all of us. He has the POWER to change...

Be Encouraged Today!: Casting Down Imagination/Bad/Negative Thoughts : "Now I know I'm the only one in the world that does this - get carried away with thoughts. Thank God I've learn to cast those negative though..."

Now I know I'm the only one in the world that does this - get carried away with thoughts. Thank God I've learn to cast those negative thoughts down, and that I have authority to call those things to be not as though there were. I no longer get carried away with my thoughts. I immediately cast down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5). I think on whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things (Philipians 4:8). I have the mind of Christ Jesus. I clothe myself with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh (Romans 13:14). This is my confession. Now I will say that I have gotten better. Before if there was a "potential problem", I would run every scenario of what co...

Good Morning, HBO was showing an animated movie I love watching with my kids call Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron. The music for the movie is written and composed by an artist name Bryant Adams, and there’s a song on the soundtrack of the movie called Sound the Bugle. The lyrics go something like this… "Sound The Bugle" Sound the bugle now - play it just for me As the seasons change - remember how I used to be Now I can't go on - I can't even start I've got nothing left - just an empty heart I'm a soldier - wounded so I must give up the fight There's nothing more for me - lead me away... Or leave me lying here Sound the bugle now - tell them I don't care There's not a road I know - that leads to anywhere Without a light I fear that I will stumble in the dark Lay right down - decide not to go on Then from on high - somewhere in the distance There's a voice that calls, "Remember who you are" If you lose yourself - your courage soon w...
