God has a blessing for me, for my life. He is going to use me in such a way that the enemy is going to surrender and bow at my feet because of the power of presence of God within me! When I walk into a room, demons will tremble.
 It's no wonder satan has been sending demons to attack me all of my life. I'm at a point where, in the past, I would've been gave up by now. I would've solved my problems by getting drunk, smoking weed, sleeping all day. That's what I used to do. Depression and isolation. That's who I used to be. Let me tell you where that's gotten me: NOWHERE.

---

During Covid, I was at home all day, locked in. I was all alone. I had no one. I called out to God, and He met me. Our relationship began to blossom and He started a healing process in me, but then the enemy came in with a temptation and I fell for it. I got distracted. And I started to sin. I started having sex without marriage, drinking heavily, smoking weed, cussing, lying. I started to become that person I was before God lived in me. It's funny because, at the beginning of doing all these things, God showed what the blessing looked like for sticking with His covenant. And then, He showed me the curse. I knew this time what I was getting myself into, but it's like the enemy had this hold on me. I felt like God wasn't helping. That whole time I stayed pressing. I kept praying. I kept reading my Bible. I kept listening to His word. I kept going to Bible study, but I could no longer feel His presence or hear God's voice. I could no longer see visions and dream dreams. And I HAD THE NERVE TO GET MAD AT GOD for not showing up! Not realizing that God is pure. He cannot live where sin lives. He stood outside my door waiting for me, and sometimes He would come inside the temple and visit, but He would not be able to stay because while I was making the choice to live in sin my heart grew hard. I put up a wall that blocked Him from getting too far in. When He revealed this to me, I started to sin less, until it became no more. I confessed, I repented, I turned away. The Lord began to move me out of situations, remove people from my life. Change my heart and my mind, but while He was changing situations and healing things inside me, I was taking these things as losses and growing bitter, angry, hurt and ungrateful. Then He began to add new things. I'm letting Him heal me again and get back to working in those things we were working on before I bit into that fruit. I will not look back. Yet, my life unravels still. Lord, show me what I'm lacking, what I'm doing wrong so I can make it right!
3 days ago God gave me 3 words to study: GRACE, GLORY, and GRATITUDE.

G'z ⬆️ from the feet up.
You're gonna walk in this and be lifted.
Elevated to the 3rd Heaven.

As I started to study and pray, I felt His grace manifest within my soul. Yes, Gods glory is upon me again! If I want it to stay I must show GRATITUDE. I must be thankful for the things I have. You see, I lost my job, my car, my home, my dog, some friends, my bank account is negative, but God never let me go without a place to sleep, I never went hungry or thirsty, I always have a way to get where I need to go, I always have someone to comfort me when I need it. Going through tribulation will sometimes make you forget to be thankful for the things you do have. You have to learn how give thanks and be grateful or your going to keep losing and wonder why you never gain.

O Father, would you forgive me of my shortcomings?
Would you forgive me for my bitterness and soften my heart?
Would you forgive me for not recognizing all of the things I have and focusing on all of the things I've lost.
I am grateful for you, my God, that you've never left my side. I do not deserve you. I thank you, Lord, for a place to rest and lay my head. I thank you, Lord for friends and family that I can lean on for support. I thank you for all of the love in my life. I thank you for the strength you give me to press forward and go through the wilderness, to climb up this mountain. Hallelujah! I thank you, Father for your love so deep that you sent your son to die and bleed for me. You sent your son to be persecuted, put down, made fun of, be betrayed, be beaten and spit on to save me from my sin. Yet, here I was being ungrateful. Oh, woe is me.
Lord, I remember that day you let me feel that pain that Jesus felt. It was the worse pain is ever felt. I fell to my knees and wept, O Lord, why would you do this for me. I don't deserve it! How could I forget such a thing? I'm sorry for getting distracted and forgetting. I'm sorry for not being sober minded and forgetting. I'm so sorry for forgetting. Never let me forget again all you've done. I never want to forget. No matter what I could ever go through, nothing will compare to your pain, because your pain is never ending. We will always fail you. You died to save us and everyday we turn away from you. Don't let me turn away, Lord. Lead me not into temptation and deliver from my evil ways. Fill me with your Grace, for your Glory I am eternally grateful! In Jesus name. Amen

If He did it before, He'll do it again

I'm stepping into my promised Land
