Words of Encouragement


Have you ever had STUFF roll up on you. Well I did this morning and boy was I hot.


In desperation I reached out to someone about my taxes. Only to wake up to receiving a bad report about my taxes. I immediately started to go into panic and then anger mode. I don’t know about you, but when my panic turns into anger — someone is in for it. I was ready. No, let me correct that — the devil had my adrenaline pumping. They were going to get a piece of my mind — (#realtalkdonna).


Then, someone I had worked with began to treat me as though I was desperate. Granted, there are times in my life that I forget who I am and allow people to believe that I am desperate. With God on my side, I am never desperate, but in my flesh, I can seem desperate to some. So this person began to think that they can take advantage of me and treat me less than Royalty. She must not know who I am. But then again, I can’t blame her, I obviously acted like I was desperate for her to feel like she could treat me as a desperate Christian woman. Wrong answer, my friend. Not desperate on my worst day.


Now, back to how riled up the devil had me going. I was ready to act like a simple person. The simple person I use to be before God snatched me out of my simpleness. Thank you for salvation Father.


Anyhow, as I was listening to the lies, our adversary, the devil was feeding me, I got a check in my spirit. Luke 6:28 — “Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.” Father, I don’t want to hear that, I want to tell them off. NOT SO.


Okay Father, in the name of Jesus, if that is what I should do — which I know to do, but don’t want to do, I will do what Your Word says. I will bless them and pray for them. So I decided that for the next 13 days of December, I will intentionally with names spoken out loud bless those people who think they are using me or getting over on me.


WHAT I KNOW FOR SURE —


I am not the only person who have or have had people take advantage of them or misused and/or abused them. So I am telling you that I know for sure that if you give it to God — whatever the abuse was — physical, mental, sexual, God will take the blessings you send out to those and heap much more blessings back at you.


Father, in the name of Jesus, I stand in the gap for those dealing with any kind of abuse and offer up blessings on behalf of our abusers. We thank You Father, in the name of Jesus that You said in Your Word (Deuteronomy 32:35) I will take revenge; I will pay them back and therefore” we will bless them knowing that You see all and know all and is taking good care of us, amen. #Godzmouthpiece #runningafterGod4real #realtalkdonna

As I was spending time in the Word earlier today, the idea came to me to start a Bible Study similar to the one that I had done when we had our Church. The Bible Study was named “faith versus facts.” I began to reminisce about how good it was to me to study on the above-mentioned topic and then for myself and the others who attended the Bible Study. My thoughts got interrupted by Proverbs 14:12 —“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death” and Judges 17:6 — “in those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” I felt an “oh oh” in my spirit.


I thought long and hard on those scriptures that interrupted my thoughts. I only WANT TO DO what is right and pleasing in God’s sight. I don’t want to do anything that makes me look good, spiritual and religious, but is not pleasing in the sight of God. I want to do what God called me to do — in the time that He has called me to do it.


I see so many people on Social Media using God’s Word frivolously,

just because they can, which may very well hurt the new converts in the long run. I don’t want to just abuse the prophetic anointing in my life to impress anyone. I only want to use it to glorify God. I want to have a Bible Study when God says “I have released you to teach this now”. I don’t want to prophesy, teach, preach or abuse any of the gifts God has given to me to be in competition with anyone else. Ultimately — I don’t want to hear “depart from me, you workers of inequity, I knew you not.” No buddy not me. And because I don’t want to hear those Words from my Father, I will again examine those words that interrupted my thoughts so that I can make sure that I do the Bible Study in God’s timing and not mine.


Now as you read this Blog, go make sure that you are one who is doing what is right and pleasing in your own sight.
