You Can Still Experience Growth in the Desert!

You Can Still Experience Growth in the Desert!

Do you ever go through a dry phase? Where it seems you’ve not been as engaged or as close to God as you desire? Saltine Cracker Syndrome is real (per me!) Nevertheless, God is with us even when we experience dryness in our spiritual walk.

Temporal Satisfaction

As we take a look at John 6:22-44, let us be encouraged to examine our pursuit of Jesus by asking: 1) Are we pursuing Jesus for the satisfaction of our desires? 2) Are we pursuing Jesus for immediate relief? 3) Are we able to see Jesus for who He truly is?

Watch Your Mouth!

What we say has the ability to directly affect what we experience. Take a lesson from Pharoah in Ex. 9:27-30 and be careful to keep your lips from careless conversations. Key scriptures are Exodus 9:27-30 and Proverbs 12:13-14, 22.

New Expectations, Old Excuses

New Expectations, Old Excuses

We all have something we want God to do for us, but are you ready to listen to what He says is required of you to get it? Having an expectation of God to do a new thing means change in your life. If you want the change, expect changes.

Taken from Exodus 6 & 7 the AMPC, highlighting 6:6-9 and 7:7.

Without Hesitation

This week, I want to encourage you as you’re moving with God.

Your Nature

Your Nature

Welcome back! After our summer vacation, I’m back to share with you more encouraging and inspiring topics from the Word of God. Today’s episode of Tea, Not Coffee we’ll begin discussing, “Your Nature”. The key to knowing who you are and understanding that God made you, is the knowing and making part. Everything in us isn’t supposed to be there. Likewise, there are things within that is not to the detriment of our walk with Christ. This conversation helps open the door to uproot the things that are within us that have been affecting our growth naturally and spiritually.

Annihilating Anxiety Pt. 2: Covetousness vs. Influence

Annihilating Anxiety Pt. 2: Covetousness vs. Influence

There are plenty of events happening this month. That means, anxiety has plenty of opportunity to rear its ugly head! But don’t let it! Don’t let the stress and pressure to perform, and the desire to have what someone else has, or to gain what others have be the cause of your downfall. Coveting is one of the easiest ways to invite anxiety into your life. It’s also dangerously unhealthy both naturally and spiritually. Trust God for your life and be encouraged to know that there is a difference between covetousness and influence.
