“A LIVING TESTIMONY”

“A LIVING TESTIMONY”

Do you have a Testimony?

When you give testimony in a court of law hearsay is not admissible. You cannot testify to what someone else has seen, heard, felt or experienced. Only what you know to be true through personal knowledge, sight or involvement is considered to be credible testimony as a witness.

So, I ask again—do you have a Testimony?

Not the kind you give in a court room on a witness stand, but the kind that’s been engraved on your heart by the personal encounters you’ve had with the Master.

Life will surely bring about bumps, bruises and scars. But these are just Testimonies in the making—evidence that you have endured The Test. Thus, your life doesn’t have to look all perfectly gift-wrapped and nice—Just be a credible witness for Christ!

Stand your ground. Stay Positive. Keep the Faith. We are called out and set apart to be a Living Testimony—Not trying to persuade, prod or pressure anyone into your point of view, but simply being a living testament to what God can do!🙏🏽~M. Ford

“And they overcame and conquered him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, for they did not love their life and renounce their faith even when faced with death.” (Revelation‬ ‭12:11‬ ‭AMP‬‬)

“Stay In The Race”

STAY IN THE RACE!

“Stay In The Race”

Heavenly Father…Thank you for your unconditional love for us and for forgiveness of our sins, iniquities and transgressions. Help us to live holy in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation.

Oh Lord, help us to be sensitive to the prompting of The Holy Spirit in our lives! And give us spiritual discernment, understanding, wisdom and knowledge of spiritual things so that we might properly handle every situation in the natural that life brings, according to Your perfect Will.

Father, give each of us understanding of our responsibility to live blamelessly before a lost and watching world. For we know that the race is not given to the swift, but to the one who endures until the end. Lord, give us sticking and staying power so that we will have strength to endure!

Lord…lead, guide, direct and protect us as we press forward this day. Our desire is that our lights will shine so bright within us that the world will see YOU in everything we do—even when we ourselves are going through difficult times, let our lights so shine that men will see us and glorify our God in Heaven.

Have Your way in our lives Holy Spirit as we submit and surrender ALL things under You complete authority! It’s In Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise you always. Amen ~M. Ford

“Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.” (Philippians 2:14-16)

“BY FAITH”

Heavenly Father, I pray Your protection, direction and covering over us today. Give each of us an extra portion of grace and mercy as we enter a new day, not knowing what we may encounter, but trusting You to bring us through victoriously!

Father, touch those who are hurting, sick, lonely and lost with your finger of healing, renewal, love and restoration in Jesus’ mighty name! Help us to seek Your Will above our own as we surrender complete control in every area of our lives to You—the author and finisher of our faith.

Father, as we desire to do greater works in your name, Help us be the light and salt in this dark and unsavory world! Purge, renew and strengthen us each day for the work of the ministry and help us walk boldly in the calling you have upon each of our lives as we humbly submit to you daily.

Not our will, but Your will be done. It’s in Jesus’ mighty and matchless name we trust and have hope! Amen 🙏🏽 ~M. Ford

“SPEAK NO EVIL”

“SPEAK NO EVIL”

Be careful how you speak and be slow to respond. Your speech and response may be the lifeline that someone drowning in sin and confusion may need to guide them into the reality of Christ.🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.” (Ephesians‬ ‭4:29‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

“GOD’S TURNING IT AROUND!”

Never give up when life gets you down!
EMOTIONS are made to CHANGE with the movement of time and your current predicament.

Wait on THE LORD and HE will pick you up out of the muck and miry conditions of life, set you up on a sure and firm foundation, give you a new direction and put a new song in your heart that will cause you to rise up in Victory!☝🏾

“I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. He has put a new song in my mouth— Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD.” (Psalms‬ ‭40:1-3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

“THE BLESSING”

Father God, Let your Favor fall upon every person who see and agree with this prayer.

Allow Your Favor to cover them and be upon them and their family, and their children, and their children for a thousand generations!

May Your presence go before them, be with them, and be all around them to empower them to do Your Will and Your Work.

May Your grace abound over them and Your mercy encamp with them each and every day.

May their hands be ready to do the work of the ministry, their feet be quick to walk in obedience to the Word, their ears be in tune with your voice, their eyes fixed on the prize of the high calling, and their heart totally surrendered and committed to You.

Empower and equip them for every good work…all to bring YOU glory and honor! By The Blood🩸of The Lamb that was shed for the remission of our sins, and in the all powerful Name of Jesus who is The Christ…IT IS SO…Amen, Amen, Amen!🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. …For our God is a consuming fire.” (Hebrews‬ ‭12:26-27, 29‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

“It’s In The Valley We Grow”

“It’s In The Valley We Grow”

Oftentimes “It’s in the valley we grow”. There’s Faith to strengthened; Testimonies to forge; And Lessons to learn in the valley.

Even though it’s no fun going through life’s valleys, it’s oftentimes the only way to get to our mountaintop!⛰

But don’t be deceived…The enemy wants you to keep looking back so that you miss seeing God clearing the path before you! After all, looking back didn’t work for Lot’s wife and it won’t work for you!

Don’t look back…Just keep on walking forward—pressing through the pain to the promise!

I’m so glad valley’s don’t last always!🙌🏼Take it from a valley girl… Just hold on and be strong!

Remember…Shadows are not reflective of the true image—You shall Live and not Die; You shall not only Survive, but Thrive! The Good Shepherd is watching over you to protect, guide and provide.🐑😇

Take one leap of Faith at a time and Watch God order your steps through the valley of hurt and pain TO the mountaintop of promise of better and brighter days! 🌹🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.”‭‭(Psalm‬ ‭23:4-5‬ ‭ESV‬‬)
