It Is At Our Disposal

As I write this blog, I am prayerful because I feel the heart-break and sadness of Christ.

One may say, "How arrogant for him to say that?!"

I feel sad because anything we want we can access from God and possess them!  I am saddened because I listen to testimonies, complaints, and disappointment from people that do not regularly access God and possess what they need.  I ask myself,"Am I speaking clearly?"

When we tap into the Source of Life, Jesus Christ the Son of God, and His written word which are the thoughts of His heart; we can guarantee manifestation!

I am provoked by God to provoke you to higher dimensional prayer.

As a messenger of the gospel of Jesus Christ, I have always desired to minister on the topic of God's love because I have never ministered about God's love.  In addition, I desired this because His love is the premise and promise of the gift of salvation we possess.

But tonight my heart is beating rampantly to share with you what the Holy Spirit has shared with me and here it is:

"IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT YOU ARE PRAYING FOR, PRAY THE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD!"

As I was in prayer last night, I finally decided to pray Ephesians 3.16-19.  I prayed this prayer before I went to bed and meditated on this prayer for some time.  After some time I fell asleep and when I awakened I realized I better understood the depth, width, height, and length of Christ's love.  I also prayed the 16th verse and I am now stronger with the might of the Holy Spirit in my inner man.

For some reason or another, I prayed prayers similar to Ephesians 3. 16-19 before, but I never prayed it for verbatim.  This time there was a difference.  I woke up with the power of God at work within me!  A move of God has taken place in my heart!  This is exactly what I have been wanting.....a move of God to take place in my heart!

If we receive everything the Kingdom of God has for us with an attitude of an innocent child we are able to walk through the doors of rooms that are filled with blessing, deliverance, freedom, prosperity, salvation, wholeness, healing, knowledge, insight, and wisdom (Luke 18.17)

You may be thinking,"Why can I not pray my own words in order for my prayers to be answered and for miracles to come forth?"  Well you can, but the difference in answered prayers and miracle-working prayers are the difference in your words and God's words.

You may have wondered, "How come when he/she prays things happen?"  Two reasons: high level faith and praying the Scriptures

I found out those with high level faith are those that pray the Scriptures.  I also found out these individuals are no different than me, but they prayed differently than me.

Now I know how I must pray to access miracles in my life and other people's lives.

I am no expert, I just love to pray!  Because I love to pray, I spend a good portion of my time praying.

Back to your question:  "Why can I not pray my own words in order for my prayers to be answered and for miracles to come forth?"

Your answer is right here:  God will NEVER act, respond, or go against what He says!

"So is My word that goes forth from out of My mouth; it will never return unto Me void; it will accomplish what I please, and prosper for the purpose for which I sent it" (Isaiah 55.11).

If you have a sickness, find a Scripture verse that deals with healing and pray that Scripture over your sickness!

If Satan has a hold on you, pray Revelation 12.11 until Satan flees!  Or pray James 4.7.

If you want to know God better, pray Col. 1.9!

If you are ignorant to some things you may have heard your pastor or a minister preach, ask God to open your eyes or pray Ephesians 1.17-19.

The Word of God is for every believer to utilize as your Spiritual Sword that will rip away all fleshly thoughts, ideas, issues, problems, arguments, intelligent reasoning, and etc.....

Every spiritual problem will be settled with God's Word and every natural problem can be settled with God's Word!

"Forever, O Lord, Your Word is settled in heaven" (Psalm 119.89).

Count your sickness healed!

Count your problem solved!

Count this bout won!

Deem your miracle manifested!

Count your sin forgiven!

The Blessings of the Lord is at Our Disposal!

When you pray, remember you are under an open heaven!

Talk about this blog with your Christian group....use it for a Bible study!  Share it with your friends!  Talk about with your family!  Meditate on these words before you go about your activities!

I pray this blog blesses you!

For God will manifest everything you pray!

Miracles are at your disposal!

Get it Done!

This blog will share tips on how to "Get it Done!"

What are you getting done?  The assignment, project, book, song, screen/play-write, engagement, marriage, business, non-profit, and whatever God has given you passion to do on earth.  

You have dreamt about it!  You have thought about it!  Talked about it!  You've picked it up and put it down!  

You wonder why you have not reached financial freedom yet....and you are over living from paycheck to paycheck.  

The first statement you must know is this:  You will not reach financial freedom until your passion that God has given you is in full operation.  Do not get me wrong, this is NOT an overnight, microwave popcorn manifestation. 

You must put in some work....but you WILL FAIL if you put in more work than prayer!  I promise you, if you do more work and very little prayer, your assignment will be common.  If you read in the book of Acts 19.11, the Bible says, "Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul."  

There are many songs, many plays, many businesses, many books, many spas and hair salons that are common, but there are very few uncommon, fruitful complete projects in operation.  

When you pray, God will work unusual miracles by your hands!  Uncommon favor will come upon you!  The Lord will move unconventionally through you!  

Ultimately, your calling does not have anything to do with financial freedom, but Deuteronomy 8.18 says that God has given us the ability to get wealth.  The wealth is yours if only you will put your ABILITIES to ACTION!  Your abilities or enabling power is powerless if those abilities are not EXERCISED.  

It is like exercising your body.  Your muscles become sore after the first two work-outs because your muscles are rebelling because they have not been exercised.  They have been sleeping.  However, when you get those muscles in a daily regiment of exercising they will get on board and cooperate with you.  

It is hard to start at the beginning of getting these things done because it is a long list, but you have to start a little at a time.  So my recommendations are, and maybe not respectively because PRAYER MUST BE your beginning point. The Bible says, "In the beginning, God said"......you need to seek God to hear Him "SAY" and then it shall manifest or happen for you!!!!!  

  1. Write the vision on paper.....no laptop, phone, or tablet.  Use paper!!!!  Paper is "old fashion" but there are many distractions on your phone, tablet, laptop, and any other electrical devices.  Moreover, when you literally write, your brain will automatically go into its creative-reflective mode whereby you will begin to pour out everything that God has sown inside of you on to paper.  (You have to get me to do a workshop if you want more info on this point).
  2. Dedicate an hour every day for research, comparisons within the industry, budget, facilities, brainstorming, and etc....this idea basically says, contribute an hour per day performing some sort of ACTION to fulfilling God's call on your life.  Eventually that hour will turn into an hour-and-a- half, then two hours; then four hours, and then you will find that your passion is your new full time employer!  (You have to get me to do a workshop on purpose if you want more info on Passion (Jesus) being your Employer)!  Remember, God chose/hired you for the job!
  3. As my good friend Aunt Nessa said,"Get out of the house and venture out!  Do not put all your eggs into one basket!  Connect with other people in your industry!"  In other words, "NETWORK!"  or for the spiritually deep:  "Get in covenant with someone!" Sidebar:  Your friends, company you keep, and associates, and I am sorry to say it, even your family, must be put on the side if they are not just as productive as you are....This may seem harsh, but Jesus said, "Whoever does the will of My Father is My family" (Matthew 12.50)  Jesus also said, "You are My friends if you keep My commandments" (John 15).  The apostle Paul said, "evil company corrupts good habits" (1 Cor. 15.33).  I am not attempting to be dominating or controlling in my tone, but please read and obey this by the Spirit of the Living God.....If you live in the dead, you do not have life....Anything that is barren, let it remain barren, but it is time for you to produce fruit! (You have to get me to do seminar/workshop if you want more revelation on this point).
  4. Market yourself!  You are your best form of advertisement....this is done by how you carry yourself to work, to the gym, and everywhere else you go, but your character, your integrity, how you dress, and etc.   Use the philosophy of this time to your advantage in a "CHRIST-LIKE" Manner!  We live in an image driven society with FB, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and all that good stuff!  USE IT!  Get crazy hair-dos ladies!  As the Bible says, "God formed us in His image" this phrase does not mean our outward appearance or what we look like on the outside, but this means that the illustration or picture of our character can be shown on a board next to God's character and our characters (God and us) will look similar to God's character image.  Get your mohawk young man!  Hit the gym....get those abs in brother!  Sister, work on that "muffin top"  because the world is going to look at your outward appearance and the true saints of God are going to look at your spirit and the character of God that manifests in your actions.  Sometimes, your look will help you to seal the deal!  But wear those jeans and put that make-up on my sister!  My brother, pop yo colla!  Get that swag going brother with your velvet blazer!!! So I can say, "What is this VELVET?"  LOL!!!! Market yourself people of God!  Someone is always watching. (If you want a workshop on fashion, the SWAG OF SALVATION, and etc....we can work that out too!)
  5. PRAY!  PRAY!  PRAY!  (You have to come to my ministry event to receive the instruction on this one...my ministry is called Mt. Zion Bloodwashed Ministries...AKA the Prayer Center.  On March 22, 2014 from 9:30a.m.-1:00 p.m. join us for "SYNERGY WITH HEAVEN" 3910 Old Frederick Rd, Baltimore, MD 21229)  I am the pastor of the church and I will be spearheading the workshop!  Free continental breakfast is served....
Hey, I am praying for you!  Not only am I praying for you, but I am cheering for your fruitfulness....

People of God success is not a New Covenant principle.  It is in the book of Joshua and in the Old Covenant, but not the New Covenant.  Fruitfulness is a New Covenant command and desire of Christ for our lives!   Utilize these tips.  Talk about these points with your friends, Christian groups, cell groups, your click, or what have you.  Email me or write some comments in the comment section of this blog!  

You can do this and you are destined for greatness with Jesus Christ in your life!  

I pray you are blessed by this blog!! 

Get it DONE!

Beyonce's Influence on Christians, Christian Marriages, and the unsaved!

Denzel Washington played Frank Lucas in the movie entitled "American Gangster."  Frank Lucas was a supreme drug lord and CEO of a drug operation.  He hired many of his family members to help him run his operation.  One of his cousins, during a Penthouse "nose powdering party", wore clothes that craved much attention.  In addition to his clothing, Lucas' cousin's nose was "powdered up' causing his behavior to be "turnt up."  Frank Lucas grew extremely irate and in response taught his cousin that, "the loudest nigga in the room is the weakest nigga in the room."  Lucas' philosophy was very interesting because he did not practice what he preached when he wore the Chinchilla floor length coat to the Vegas boxing match. Moreover, that Chinchilla coat added to Lucas' downfall.

Beyonce came out with an album without any warning which was genius.  She totally went against the grain of sales, advertisement, and marketing.  How Beyonce went about this was totally groundbreaking for the 21st century.  This type of strategy has not been done since the 60's.  However, someone will do something greater only if they think outside the box.  I think Jay-Z and Beyonce's partnership is a great business plan and has caused them to expand what success looks like.  Jay-Z has definitely upgraded Beyonce and vice versa; and this is from a business perspective.  I love how paparazzi paints a picture of love, fun, and prosperity for the world to see Jay-Z and Beyonce.  I find it interesting that Barack and Michelle Obama seem to mentor the marriage of Jay-Z and Beyonce.  I do not believe Jay-Z and Beyonce will ever divorce like many of the Hollywood pseudo-relationships.  

I do not consider myself a hater of any winner!  Winners or individuals that are winning are people that are at the top of their game such as T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Tavis Smiley, Rev. Al Sharpton, Tyler Perry and many more.  People consistently and normally hate on "winners."  What is hating?  What I call "hating" is when someone who is not winning disrespects a "winner" because of envy, jealousy, insecurity, and hatred.  Often, these individuals that are hating are attempting to make a name for themselves or not, finding it hard to progress and win and normally sufferers of low self-esteem.  

I will never talk about T.D. Jakes because I have the attitude of the apostle Paul.  "Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from good-will:  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains; but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel.  What then?  Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice."  (Philippians 1.15-18).  Many popular preachers preach a different Christ that I sometimes find myself to be unfamiliar with, and few preach the Christ I am familiar with.  And overall, some do not preach Christ at all!  

What does this have to do with Beyonce?  From the very little I've heard, Beyonce made an album of sexually charged lyrics that exposes her sexual desires for her husband.  I am glad Beyonce is married and loves to have sex with her husband.  I am married as well, and LOVE the intimate encounters my wife and I experience.  However, I believe the Holy of Holies is a sacred place where a worshiper does not have to always disclose the intimate experiences that are shared between the worshiper and Jesus Christ. Jesus said when you pray, and I am summarizing His point, go into a secret place to pray.  In other words, do not go out into the streets flaunting prayer words.  There is a principle behind what Jesus is saying.  Jesus is saying, "the relationship I have with you is ultimately between you and I (Jesus Christ).  What goes on in the secret place or prayer closet, which is ultimately your heart, should be between you and I." 

The secret place is a place of high level intimacy involving high level passion.  We must be watchful when people stand up and testify about their experiences with God.  Many times, it is done from a spirit of boasting attempting to make it seem as if they are more "spiritually endowed" than others.  This is immature behavior and these individuals should be sat down, taught about timing and prayed for as well.  In addition, these individuals must understand that Jesus did compare the least to the greatest and what He resolved was the greatest was the least.  Meaning, the person who does not crave attention, boast, and attempts to flaunt blessing over those that do not seem, from the outer appearance to be blessed, is the greatest of these because he/she is the least.

The servant is the least of these.  If you saw the movie entitled, the Butler, there were some rules the Butler had to adhere to when in the room of the elite.  He must remain quiet at all times unless a request is made known.  Even when a request was made, very few words must be spoken and normally those words were, "yes and no sir" and "yes and no mam."  

Many immature prophets blurt out everything God says to them without mastering and understanding the art of timing.  Even musicians know that timing is essential to the beauty of some sort of "fill-in" or "chop."  Even D.J.'s know when to change the environment from an 80's mix to a 21st century mix.  

Ok, back to Beyonce!  Beyonce has indirectly and directly ministered topics from the various sexual positions she gets in, the numerous times sex is experienced with her husband, to the size of her husbands phallic potential calling it a "Big Ego."  I love music and listen to different genres of music and I respect the art.  However, I have a problem with unrealistic descriptions of Jesus Christ.  Yeezus is the not Christ!  Most married couples know, especially those with small children, do not have sex numerous times a day.   In addition, those men out there who struggle with their genetically endowed phallic potential should read what SEX EXPERTS say about size.  Porn is unrealistic; take it from me I know!  And the message Beyonce is ministering to her worshipers is unrealistic!  

Let's put this in perspective.  Beyonce is at the top of the charts in hits, sales, and best songs.  Jay-Z is a winner.  Do you really believe winners have that much sex?  First off, they are never home, more than often away from their spouse and children, extremely tired, and always about the dollar.  My short list does not even scratch the surface of the stress they encounter, which will impede the desire to have sex.  So this is my question:  Why do people dislike fake and phony people so much, yet they worship the lyrics and trends of Beyonce? And they do not even know her personally!  

I have the answer!  I believe she is a goddess! Beyonce is a goddess!  But she is not my god!  Jesus Christ is my Lord because He is real!  He has never said anything unrealistic, never giving me any false impression, and never painted a picture for me that I would not be able to attain, experience, and live with on earth.  Jesus is not phony.  He is REAL!  

I met Christians that love Beyonce more than Jesus!  They spend more time listening to the ministry of Beyonce than Jesus!  They try their best to look like Beyonce rather than to be formed into the image of Christ!  They sing Beyonce's lyrics rather than sing the songs of Christ!  They quote more Beyonce lyrics than Jesus' infallible, flawless, perfect, Word!  

God had a problem with Israel because they honored, loved, imitated, and patterned themselves after false gods.  They were false gods because they lied to the people.  

Maybe in the beginning months of marriage, if your really fortunate, will you and your spouse have sex multiple times a day.  And that isn't guaranteed nor realistic.  If both of you are making over six figures, you may have sex three times a week; especially if you have kids.  Even if you are both making a sum of $40,000 a year you really ain't having sex a lot because you are stressed because bills need to get paid.  I'm just sayin!  

True love does not entertain sex, but entertains intimacy.  Beyonce is having sex with Jay-Z, but she rarely talks about their intimacy.  Intimacy is different than sex.  Intimacy does not worry about positions, size, the amount of times, and seductive outfits with high heel pumps (although I love it when my wife does that for me...)   But I do not bang my wife out and Beyonce's lyrics insinuate a bang out session!  I am sorry, what Beyonce is describing in her lyrics is not intimacy.  1 Corinthians 13 describes love as not parading itself.  

Christians!  Who is your Lord?  Please do not be deceived!  Open your eyes and ears and listen to yourselves talk!  Many of you may not like this, but I had to say something because I want the truth of marriage to be discussed and realized.  

Those of you who are unmarried and desires to be married must know that marriage is more than a license of grace to partake in sex!  Intimacy exceeds and transcends sex.  My wife and I do not have sex!  We make love....hahahahaha...I am joking....we enjoy intimacy!  Intimacy is eternal, people of God.  Intimacy is what Christ desires you to have with Him.  

I love you in Jesus Christ!  

I hope you spread this message I wrote and talk about it within your groups of friends, sororities, fraternities, Bible studies, and etc.....dialogue is always good and if we are afraid to have real conversations, we are not being real!

Blessings to you!
