Thought for today:
Good morning kings and queens,
I start this week off with some heavy thoughts. If, you know me, you know I listen...what I listen for is the things you're saying by not saying them. If you know me, you'll also know that I am judicious with my responses to what I hear in the unspoken ( a habit learned from and in prayer)... saying all this to say.That someone said something the other day....and they don't even know they spoke volumes to what I'm about to "preach"....Yes, I said preach....pull up a chair this message is going to be a bit wordy.
Some of y'all don't believe in a Higher Power (God, Allah) or a spirit that seeks to exalt itself against it (Satan, Shaytan)....so I'm going to pose it to you like this:
At some points in life we are at our peak performance; we're up and coming, energy is positive and we seemingly have everything our heart's desire. We're "In the building and feeling ourselves"... and this is when we're most vulnerable to the attack of the "enemy". This is when the negative energy and forces come into play and the "polarity power play" begins.
Matthew 4:1-11 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”

Matthew 4:1-11 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:
“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.”
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.”
7 Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.”
11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
Imagine being tempted by your BLESSINGS- you ever think that the if you misuse what you've been given it can become a curse? Of course you haven't... The enemy uses YOU to get YOU!!!! playing on your pride, your faults, your insecurities...He doesn't care what he uses as long as he has your attention...and he has taken your eyes and hearts off God.
some of us are following everything but God....some of us are looking for a God "supplement"...like He needs a "booster"....
As we shelter in place....use the time to build your faith.
2 Timothy 2:15 (NIV) Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
2 Timothy 3: 16-17 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV)
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Matthew 4: 4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
