We celebrate all the Women, Mothers and the one who ever was a mother figure in your life. Maybe you were one the motherly figures, godmother, foster parent etc.
Today I encourage you: keep on being an awesome woman and mother! Continue to apply wisdom to your life situations.
Godly wisdom is defined as, “The ability to discern or judge what is true, right; a gift from God to view life from a spiritual perspective; by applying biblical principles in all areas of life.”
I believe that Wisdom and knowledge gives us the ability to make the right choices at the right time to help cope with our everyday life situations and circumstances.
We must always keep in mind that we need inspiration and wisdom and knowledge from heaven!
Pr.4:7 tells us (NKJV) Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
A Woman Of Wisdom
Proverbs 31:26-28 tells us (NKJV)She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.27 She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.28 Her children rise up and call her blessed
In these scriptures we learn that a woman of wisdom takes good care of her children and household by addressing their physical, emotional, social, mental, and spiritual needs.
Things A Woman Of Wisdom Does For Her Household
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom
26 She has the law of kindness on her tongue
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
27 She does not eat the bread of idleness
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed
She loves her children and family dearly and will try to be the best person she can be for their sake.
Today’s Word Jewel: You are more than your problems. God is for you!
Romans 8:31
Wonderful people if our God is for us, who can be against us? Remember, nobody can separate us from the love of Christ! And no one can stop what God has declared will be.
His truth makes us MORE than conquers! It means we’re more than our problems, our circumstances, and our flaws. We are more than the hardships or losses we encounter. We are bone of His bone and spirit of His Holy Spirit. We are, and will always be, victorious because the Greater One—the Alpha and Omega—lives on the inside of us. The Greater One is with us – who will be successful against us?
Wonderful people, our confidence is based on what God’s Word says about us. It’s based on the power of His word—that He loves us and hears our prayers as we petition Him according to His will. We know hard times and seasons inevitably happen but His word reminds us that weeping and sorrow may endure a night, but joy comes in the morning.
Oh God, we thank you! We trust you! We believe you!
Heb.13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of Praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to his name.
As the author here encourages us to Continually offer up a Sacrifice of Praise to God.” Praise is something that we offer to God sacrificially, not just because we feel like it, but because we believe in Him and Desire to Please Him.
We are to be captivated and filled with the greatness, goodness and grace of God. We should be like a cup: filled to the brim, always spilling over in praises to Him.
Ps.54:6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will Praise thy name, O Lord; for it is good.
Created is defined as: To cause to exist; bring into being.
The definition of praise is to: express, honor, and gratitude to God through worship, words, attitudes, and actions (expressions of love, and appreciation to God).
Today, I encourage you to have an attitude of Praise in your own private prayer time and throughout your day, by realizing that you were created to Praise the Lord. Every time you wake up and breathe you should begin to glorify Him.
You can praise God anywhere at anytime! And the more you praise, the more it will be as normal as breathing.
Psalms 150:6 says, let everything that hath breathe Praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
It’s not enough just to have Praise in your heart; the word says we need to have it in our mouth as well.
I will bless the LORD at all times: his Praise shall continually be in my mouth. Psalms 34:1
My tongue shall speak of God’s righteousness and of His Praise all the day long. Psalm 35:28
Enter into God’s gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with Praise. Psalm 100:4
When you first begin to truly praise God, it may seem awkward to you, but if you keep on Praising, it will soon become a way of life. Praise will cause the glory of God to be manifested in your life. It will cause you to walk in the light of His Countenance.
Psalms 89:15 says; Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
So you need to open up your mouth and your heart and do what God has created you to do…PRAISE HIM!
Today’s Jewel: Strengthen your spiritual muscles to build strong faith.
Beautiful ones, when you exercise your faith – applying it fully to your life – you strengthen your spiritual muscles and strong spiritual muscles produce strong faith.
Did you know that one of the ways to build stronger, bigger muscles in the human body is to “continually challenge the muscle to deal with higher levels of resistance?” The spiritual body is no different in that sometimes, the hard things we overcome are the very things that shape us – that help to strengthen us.
Strong faith anchors you. It fortifies your ability to withstand life’s challenges and thrive despite them. Hurdles, emotional trauma, worry, and disappointments will come. The good news is they don’t have to stop you from operating in your full potential, living your purpose, or enjoying a joy-rich life. It all starts with strong faith.
Always remember, faith is…
And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him. Hebrews 11:6
A choice
A step of obedience
A spiritual exercise
Taking God at His Word
Saying yes to God
Looking to Jesus for everything
Knowing you are never without hope
A gift from God.
Knowing that everything will work out
The road to peace
Beautiful Ones, strong faith is a choice. Make the decision to be a person of strong faith today!
Sometimes, we need a gentle nudge or tap, a reminder, that we are forever connected to God’s love. We are made in the very image of that love—a love that is everlasting and unfailing. And as image bearers, it’s important that we speak from a place steeped in love, gentleness, acceptance and truth, not solely for others, but also for ourselves.
It’s important that we speak life, encouragement and declarations that reaffirm what we already know: God is able to do superabundantly more than all that wedare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams],according to His power that is at work within us. Ephesians 3:20
Beautiful Ones, our words have power. Let’s use them to build us up, not tear us down. These seven declarations can help.
7 Declarations that Speak Life
I declare God’s blessings over my life. His abundance is all around me.
I declare that I will have a great week.
I declare I will enjoy life, and that more abundantly, with family and friends.
I declare that me and my family’s week be filled with love, peace, joy, and rest.
I declare that God will give me the desires of my heart.
I declare that God will make all my plans successful.
I declare good health and inner healing for me and my family.
The dictionary defines the word bless this way, “to pronounce words in a religious rite, to confer or invoke divine favor upon; to ask God to look favorably on someone or something.” That’s right. We can invoke God’s blessing and favor in our lives by simply asking Him, by declaring affirmations that align with God’s word and His promises to each of us.
Let’s say these aloud together:
I declare God’s blessings over my life. I am blessed beyond measure and favored by God. I rest confidently knowing that regardless of what my circumstances look like now, my latter days will be greater than my former days.
I declare restoration and healing are at work within me. Because I am healing through past pains and disappointments, I can release old offenses. I can enjoy renewed and healthy connections with my family and friends.
I declare that God will give me the desires of my heart. I align with God’s abundance, supernatural provision, and direction for my life. As I trust God, I enlarge my faith, knowing that no good thing will be withheld from me.
I declare that God will make all my plans successful. Trusting in the Lord means I will not be put to shame. It means that with God ordering my steps, success is imminent. I deserve to experience the best that God has for me.
I declare good health and soul-wellness is for me. I take care of my body, rest when tired, and eat foods that nourish me. I make time for prayer. I make time to have fun. I make time for myself.
May these affirmations release blessings and joy in your life!
