✨️The Wonder Of HIS Word✨️

This morning reminded me of just how intentional and near God truly is. 🙌🏻

I had posted something yesterday and my friend Heather commented with words that encouraged my spirit. She said:

“He will put people alongside you to help you through.”

A few moments later, I picked up my Bible and opened right to 1 Chronicles 12 and 13.

And there it was. The very thing Heather said — spelled out on the page.

📖 1 Chronicles 12 — When God Sends the Right People

David was still on the run — not yet crowned king, still in a place of transition, pressure, and uncertainty. And right there, in that vulnerable season, God began to send people to him.

Tribe by tribe, they came. Warriors, archers, leaders — men of courage, strength, and loyalty. Some could shoot arrows with both hands. Some had faces like lions. Others were wise and knew what Israel needed to do.

“Day after day men came to help David, until he had a great army, like the army of God.” – 1 Chronicles 12:22

I sat there in awe, rereading that line. That’s exactly what Heather said to me.
Not a general encouragement — but a word-for-word reflection of what the Scripture was saying.

“God will put people alongside you to help you through.”
And here was David — being helped through.

God didn’t just confirm it — He personalized it.

📖 1 Chronicles 13 — Reverence in the Return

The next chapter carried the weight of God’s holiness. David, full of good intention, wanted to bring the Ark of God back to Jerusalem. But in the excitement, something was missed: God’s instructions.

The Ark was placed on a cart — instead of carried by the Levites as God had commanded. And when Uzzah reached out to steady it, he was struck down. The celebration turned into fear. David paused, overwhelmed by the holiness of God.

“How can I ever bring the Ark of God to me?” – 1 Chronicles 13:12

Even here, I sensed God whispering something deep:

"I am not only present to help — I am present to be honored."

David had help, yes — but he also needed to walk in obedience and reverence. God was drawing near, but His nearness comes with weight.

🌟 The Wonder of His Voice

I share all this not just to talk about David or Heather — but to celebrate the wonder of how God speaks.

Sometimes it’s through a friend’s encouragement.
Sometimes it’s through the living, breathing Word.
But when both align, when His voice echoes across conversations and Scripture — you know it’s Him.

He sees you.
He hears your questions.
He answers before you even ask.
He confirms before you even turn the page.

This isn’t about coincidence. It’s about the wonders of a God who speaks directly to His children.

🙏 If you're feeling alone in your calling…
If you're in transition, waiting, unsure of the next step…

Take heart in this:

God is sending help.
God is speaking clearly.
And God, in all His holiness, is still so very close.

Open your Bible — you just might find that He’s already started the conversation 📖

🫥 Hidden for a Reason:
What Matthew 2 Is Trying to Tell You

Have you ever been drawn to a passage of Scripture over and over and had no idea why? That was me with Matthew 2. I kept turning to it, not knowing what I was supposed to see. I even stuck a sticky note in my Bible: “Lord, tell me what You’re trying to say. I’m listening.” But still—silence. Still-Matthew 2.

But silence doesn’t mean absence. And being stuck doesn’t mean you’re lost.

Let me walk you through what I finally started to hear in my spirit. Maybe it's for you, too.

📜 Matthew 2 in a Nutshell (But With Spirit Eyes)

Wise men followed a star—a divine sign.

Herod was threatened and wanted to kill destiny before it could grow.

Joseph received dreams from God and obeyed without hesitation.

Jesus was hidden away in Egypt for protection.

Prophecies were fulfilled through the unexpected: Bethlehem, Egypt, Nazareth.

This isn't just a story about Jesus' birth. It's a blueprint of what **God does when He’s protecting something precious**
like you.

✨ What Was Revealed To Me:

1. You're Being Moved, Not Misplaced

Jesus was constantly being relocated. Not because God was unsure—but because God was certain of the threats and the promise. Like Joseph, you may feel like you’re always packing bags- emotionally or spiritually.

God isn’t punishing you. He’s preserving you.

2. Your Enemy Can’t Kill What He Can’t Find

Herod wanted to kill Jesus. But he couldn’t find Him. God rerouted the wise men. He rerouted Joseph. And He’ll reroute you, too.

Delay isn't denial. It’s divine detour.

You may feel like you're on the run. But you’re actually on a route to safety.

3. Your Prophecy Is in Progress

Jesus’ movement fulfilled prophecy at every stop. That means the chaos was calculated.

Maybe you’re not seeing the full picture yet, but it doesn’t mean God isn’t fulfilling it.

What you call a mess, God calls movement.
What you see as silent, God calls strategic.

4. He’s Speaking in the Stillness

Joseph didn’t get a loud encounter. He got dreams. Quiet moments. Gentle redirection.

🙏🏻Ask God:
“What are You whispering in my sleep that I keep ignoring when I wake?”

📍Where Do You Go From Here?

Right now—maybe nowhere fast. And that’s okay.

Stay in the Word.

Stay in the silence.

Stay in the mystery.

Stay available.

Like me, you might be living out a Matthew 2 moment:

Hidden, but not forgotten.

On the move, but not misplaced.

Confused, but not cursed.

God is drawing you. He’s not asking you to run ahead. He’s asking you to listen in the quiet, obey like Joseph, worship like the wise men, and trust Him in the dark.

Because Nazareth may not look like much—but from it came the King.

AM I WRONG… OR JUST WAITING?

There’s this ache in my spirit I can’t always explain.
I know what God showed me. I know the vision He placed in my heart. It wasn’t a fleeting dream or a random idea—it was something sacred. Something I didn’t even ask for, but something I carry like fire in my bones. And yet… everything around me seems to scream, “You’re wrong.”
Have you ever been there?
People around you don’t see it. They try to love you, sure. But their words—sometimes laced in doubt or casual concern—can shake you to your core.
“That’s a bit much, don’t you think?”
“Maybe God wants you to focus on something smaller.”
“Are you sure that was Him?”
And suddenly… I’m battling. Not with them. But with myself.
“God… was that really You?”
“Did I misunderstand You?”
“Am I even worthy of this calling?”
“Why isn’t it working yet?”
“Why do I feel like I’m proving my doubters right?”

A MODERN DAY LAMENTATION
Stuck Between the Ruins and the Rebuild

What is Lamentation?
Lamentation is a cry of sorrow, often expressed through prayer, poetry, or song. It's not just complaining - it’s a sacred protest. It acknowledges pain while still turning toward God.
It's the kind of prayer you pray when:
You're in despair but still reaching.
You're confused but still clinging.
You're hurting but still hoping.

A Lamentation Today: A Personal Prayer
You can pray a modern lament when you're walking through loss, betrayal, confusion, or trauma.
Structure of a Lament Prayer:
Address God honestly (O Lord...)
Bring your complaint (Why have You hidden Your face?)
Confess your trust (But I know You are near...)
Ask for help (Come quickly to my aid...)
Declare your hope (I will yet praise You...)

Why Lamentation Matters?
​We often want to skip over pain and get to praise, but in Scripture, lament is the bridge between suffering and faith.
It gives voice to those who feel forgotten.
It reminds us that God is not afraid of our raw emotion.
It teaches us how to suffer with hope.

Hello! 🌞
I am starting a business to help fund my ministry, God's Village !

The income that comes from work goes straight to my bills and food for my household. So, to invest in this business, I've come up with a plan to sell my "junk" at the flea market. I will be setting up tables every Saturday at Q mart.

If anyone would like to help contribute to the cause (helping our community), please message me!
If you have old "junk" /unused items, I'll gladly pick it up within the Lehigh Valley!

Thank you so much for your help & support.

Love & Blessings 🙌🏻

It takes a village

We are all products of our environment. Unfortunately, not all of us come from good environments. I’ve definitely had my share of not so great experiences in my life making it hard for me to find my place. I have made many, many mistakes. I’m proud to say that, 37 years later, I’m finally learning from them. I’m also proud to say that it is because God is my teacher that I am learning new ways and finding my true self!

It wasn’t until recently that I started to REALLY walk in my faith and allow God to lead me. Since I have made the choice to follow God’s instruction & obey him, he is opening up doors of opportunity for me to use my life experiences to help others. He has given me a vision. It is his will and purpose for my walk on this earth. I’m going to own and run a building called God’s Village.

There are many different aspects, and a lot of things happening within this building. When there is an actual building, all of the details will be revealed. Until then, I can tell you that this building will provide housing, jobs, childcare, meals, life skills & counseling, and will provide a support system & an encouraging, loving community for families in need.

God has been healing, growing and teaching me. He has been removing and replacing the people in my life. He has given me a strong team. For these reasons, a strong foundation for the vision he has given me is being built. We are in the beginning stages of getting this ministry on it’s feet. As I continue to walk in faith and serve God, I want you to sit back and watch his glory be shown through me!
