The Bible has over 88 scriptures within it that deals with bitterness. I looked up the definition of bitterness and this is what Google says: “Sharpness of taste; the lack of sweetness.” Does that describe where you are in life right now? Are you in a place where life lacks sweetness? Where you feel as […]
This post is for those who are like me, an ex-prodigal, meaning that at some point in your walk with Christ you came to a fork in your road of life and went down a pathway God never intended you to go. The Bible is full of “ex-prodigals” who God has used mighty much! Look […]
The biggest bully of all stands in the background of your life, mocking you, whispering insults and accusations in your ear. His greatest accolade is causing havoc in the most vulnerable areas of your life and making you believe that he doesn’t even exist. He is called the devil or satan and he absolutely and […]
I was in a prodigal state 12 years ago. I feel as though Holy Spirit is directing me to write about this today, someone is either at the brink of falling, walking away from the Lord instead of towards Him – if that is you, please read this post and I will pray that Holy […]
We are a spirit that has a soul that is housed in a body. Often the body and the soul (your personality) are the only two parts of you that you identify with, but your spirit is important to acknowledge as well because one day you will shed your shell (your body) and you will […]
We tend to look at the Bible as a fable, instead of a book of historic people whose lives God is giving us a glimpse of through the writing of Holy Spirit filled men so that we can learn from their lives, from their experiences. Everyone IN the Bible were living, breathing human beings – […]
Jesus told the woman who had committed adultery in John 8:11: “Woman, go and sin no more your sins are forgiven you.” Everything in the Bible is the Living Word of God. I believe Jesus addressed her as “woman” and not by her name because He knew that some of us would read those same […]
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He hath sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised” (Luke 4:18). We live in […]
As you know from my title, “Ex-Prodigal’s Daughter” I once was that prodigal, journeying back home… This morning, I got to thinking about how ol’ slewfoot tries to circle back around and use the same tricks of the past to trip you up again, if you are not careful and keep a watchful eye, he […]
I cannot imagine what it must have been like for those that loved Jesus to see Him hanging from that cross. As a mother, I cannot imagine Mary’s anguish. As a friend and as a follower, it must have been excruciating not being able to do anything to help Him. Knowing that He did NOT […]
I was praying about what I should write about today and I got to thinking about the men accusing the adulterous woman, ready to stone her for her sins… Do you know that story? It can be found in John 8:1-11: “Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again […]
We sometimes look at the Bible and forget that every person written IN the Word of God were living and breathing people – just like you and I. THEY WERE REAL. They were not characters in a book of fiction, they were people spoken about FOR A TIME SUCH AS THIS. God has placed US […]
