Made Strong by God’s Hands

What's up good people?! Beautiful people. Weird people. Others and the like. How are y'all doing today?! I hope you're outside STILL being holy 🙌🏿. Y'all, if y'all haven't heard the song Still Holy from Indie Tribe x Mass choir. Stop reading this blog and go listen at your max volume. It's a fire song 🔥‼️ We might need to make it an anthem for the remnant, all those fighting to remain holy for God.

Anywho, let me get y'all right real quick. Do you know that we can't be disappointed if we keep the faith in the precious cornerstone (1 Pe 2:6)? What do I mean? Joseph was a fruitful vine in God's eyes. He stood his ground when his enemies attacked and swiftly shot back with the help of Jacob's God (Gen 49:22-24)! He knew his help came from the Lord and didn't allow the attacks from the enemy to move him.

There are plenty of things going on in the world right now. The enemy wants us to be moved. Wants our faith to be shaken but we will not be so! The world wants us to focus on a physical temple being built for God, yet, we are called to build his spiritual house (1 Pe 2:5). God desires for us to offer sacrifices that please him. Such as praise, righteousness, a broken and contrite heart and broken spirit (Heb 13:15 , Ps 51:17).

We are surely capable of doing that. 💪🏿

God desires to purge the wickedness from the Earth and will judge those that are on the outside (1 Cor 5:13). So if you're going to be outside make sure you are STILL being holy. God does at times command us to destroy our enemies. When he does they will run. (Deu 33:27) Even more reason why we need not to be afraid when God does require us to and know that God will be with us. With God as our shepherd we will never be in need (Ps 23:1). For God will make us strong by his hands.

Y'all be easy. Love ya, later.

Are you Prepared for the Famine?!

What's going on good people & others ‼️ It's been a good little minute since I've graced the blog. I hope all has been well your way.

I've found myself exploring and honestly a little stocked up on the wrong things. Let me make it plain. Distractions 😫. I'm grateful that my father, our father (if you're believer and all), is wonderful at getting our attention when we have found ourselves a little too far from him.

Our word does tell us he's a loving Father 😁.

Let me share with you what our father highlighted to me.

I was reading thru the book of Amos the other day. In the book of Amos, it talks about a famine that will hit the earth. Where God highlights that the famine will not be one of food or thirst for water but for the word of God. (Amos 8:11) Many people have taken note of the changing times happening throughout our nations. In the United States, some people have prepared for years for a possible disaster, while others have just began stock piling due to the increasing prices of basic needs.

Yet, how many of us have prepared our spirits, hearts and minds with the word of God?! It's easy to hear the word famine and naturally run into survival mode looking for natural things. Food, water, emergency supplies and etc. , and forget that we also need to prepare our spirits to endure the trying times that a natural famine brings. The world wants us so distracted with struggling to survive that we don't live for God as he intended us to.

Our fight as believers is not with the flesh but with powers of darkness, spiritual forces of evil and principalities. (Ephesians 6:12) In trying times due to the stress that comes with it. Many will be naturally prepared to war with the flesh of others. However, by preparing our spirits as well as our pantries, we can be fully equipped to deal with what's to come. While having patience with our neighbors and the wisdom and understanding to navigate trying times.

Have you been filling your storehouse with the word of God? Or can you admit that maybe you've been a little distracted as well?! Good thing is, now that our father has gotten our attention, we can do our best to be intentional about filling our spiritual storehouses as well.

Be blessed, prepared and vigilant! I'll catch you next time.

Love ya, later!
