The Lord Who Bursts Through
“The Lord has broken through my enemies before me.” 2 Samuel 5:20
“The Lord has broken through my enemies before me.” 2 Samuel 5:20
Have you ever felt like the Lord rescued you at just the right moment? He made a way where there was no way and provided exactly what was needed - a word of encouragement. a timely text, a phone call, providential provision or protection. These gestures, seemingly insignificant to others, act like a floodgate bursting open with blessings for us.
Only the Lord can break through in this way. We may try to defeat our enemies in the flesh but prayer makes all the difference in the world. When we can’t see what’s ahead, we should not proceed without the ‘go ahead’ from the Lord. Learn to wait on the Lord and He will burst forth like a raging flood - answering, leading, guiding, providing and protecting.
When the Lord leads, we proclaim glory to Him because God does what no one on earth can accomplish. Praise God!

Hope is the Expectation of Coming Good
My thoughts on the interview with Charlie Kirk
Last night was awesome! We were so encouraged by the words of these men which brought hope to so many.
Hope is the expectation of coming good. Our hope is NOT in our government but in our GREAT God who promises to never leave us or forsake us. He is for us, and if He is for us who can be against us?(Romans 8:31)
These coming days may look different than we expected, but don’t be fooled God is on the move! He uses ALL things for good in our lives as believers (Rom. 8:28)—even this!
So what do we do?
We go forward—we don’t retreat.
It was President Franklin Rosevelt in his inaugural address of 1933 that said; “We have nothing to fear but fear itself. ” This he said in the midst of the Great Depression. President Roosevelt went on to say; Fear is nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."
In other words, Fear paralyzes us but faith propels us forward!
The enemy wants to prevent us from advancing and the tactic he uses is fear. Don’t let fear rule and reign in your hearts, rather let peace. For the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.(Phil.4:7.)
This is not a time for us to be afraid— as Jack Hayford said:”Fears are today’s lies about tomorrow’s promise. Fears are denials of hope rooted in doubts about God’s power, presence, promise, and working.”
Let’s commit to reject fear and go forward in faith! It’s time for the light to shine bright in this dark world! Let’s do this👊🏼🙌🏼💪🏼❤️🙏🏼🇺🇸.

Protecting Yourself and Your Children
Watch this very important video with Michelle Randall and Morgan Beeler about protecting yourself and children. Watch until the end for a special segment on self-protection. God bless you!
“Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5. Ladies, it’s hard to ignore the chaos, lawlessness and willful sin in our nation. We wanted to spend some time to help you be aware of how to protect yourself and the children who are in your care against a growing danger. Kidnapping and trafficking isn’t limited to big cities. It is happening more and more in our neighborhoods, where we may feel safer and less on-guard. Thank you to our special guest, Morgan Beeler for sharing about her children’s almost-abduction story in a Target store to bring awareness to this growing problem in our neighborhoods.
