HOLY SATURDAY—IT’S NOT OVER!

HOLY SATURDAY—IT’S NOT OVER!

Just because your situation looks dead doesn’t mean that it is dead.

Don’t give up just because things appear dormant. The germination process is vital before you can sprout into your full Calling and Purpose.

Hold fast to your Faith…GOD’S STILL WORKING! RESURRECTION SUNDAY IS ON THE WAY!🩸🙏🏽~M. Ford 

“He, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption.” (Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭31‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

MAUNDY THURSDAY

MAUNDY THURSDAY 

If you knew that the road you were traveling would lead to an unfavorable end, even death—Would you still travel it? Jesus Did. Now that’s LOVE!🙌🏼❤️✝️

Abba Father, Open our eyes today so that we might see your hand in our circumstance—Looking beyond what we see in the natural into the UNSEEN as we hang our Hope on Your Promises.

And when we begin to doubt, remind us of your perpetual presence, steadfast love and proven faithfulness.

It’s in the sovereign Name of Jesus I pray and praise always. Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God, rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself. After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.” (John‬ ‭13‬:‭3‬-‭5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

HOLY WEEK—HOLD ON HELP IS ON THE WAY!

Holy Week—“Hold On, Help Is On The Way!”

GOD so loved the World that he GAVE His one and only Son. 

Judas sold out Jesus for 30 pieces of silver—Only to find out later that what he gained cost him everything. 

JESUS Loved Us so much that He GAVE His Life—He DIED for Us so that we might LIVE for Him!

LORD, whether sunshine☀️ or rain,🌧️ through sickness and pain, don’t let our Living be in vain—because up the Road is eternal gain! Hold On Saints, Help is On the Way! Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford 

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.“ (John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ NIV)

Holy Tuesday—The CROSS In the Middle”

HOLY TUESDAY—“THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE”

Back in 2020, on Resurrection Sunday, a fierce storm came through and traveled down Highway 78 where there were 3 Crosses displayed along the side of the road.

Two out of the 3 Crosses were knocked down by the fierce winds, except for the Cross in the Middle. I thought about my LORD and SAVIOR…How He hung, bled and died for me on “THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE”!!! (Shout Break🗣️☝🏾🙌🏼) 

Using My sanctified imagination, I can see the two malefactors that were hung on the two crosses (on the left and right) that GOT KNOCKED DOWN. 

You see, sometimes we get KNOCKED DOWN in LIFE, but that doesn’t mean we are KNOCKED OUT!🙌🏼🙌🏼 

JESUS knew beforehand that he would be betrayed by Judas and denied by Peter…Nevertheless, He kept on pushing towards the CROSS IN THE MIDDLE!🙌🏼

JESUS had to die ON THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE for their sins and ours!🙌🏼🙌🏼 But He knew that his death would mean Life for so many, so He kept pushing towards the CROSS IN THE MIDDLE!🙌🏼

Many of us get knocked down by Satan, but NOT counted OUT by our Savior!🙌🏼🙌🏼 JESUS DIED, but HE was also RAISED UP from the DEAD so that we could have LIFE ETERNAL!🙌🏼🙌🏼 

Therefore, no matter what fierce winds, rain and storms of life come your way…always remember THE CROSS IN THE MIDDLE and the RESURRECTION POWER OF CHRIST in your Life!🙌🏼🩸♥️🙏🏽~M. Ford

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!” (Matthew‬ ‭23‬:‭37‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

A RIGHT NOW WORD!☝🏾

“A RIGHT NOW WORD”

BELOVED, It’s not a coincidence that so many of God’s people are being attacked and afflicted with sickness, sadness, disease and disaster.

The fact that YOU are being afflicted does NOT indicate that your connection to heavens’ power has been severed by some sin; but rather YOU have become dangerous enough to be on Satan’s radar.👿🤛🏽

Therefore, Satan is pulling out all the tricks in his little black bag and setting every trap he has in a desperate attempt to STOP YOU FROM WALKING IN YOUR GOD ORDAINED CALLING!😇

Satan knows You have been PICKED, PLANTED and POSITIONED BY GOD, AND HE HAS CHOSEN YOU FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS!🙇🏽‍♀️🙇🏼

Therefore, No matter what may come your way…KNOW and BELIEVE YOU CAN TAKE “IT” AND WONT BREAK UNDER THE WEIGHT OF “IT”.💪🏽🙏🏽

REMAIN FAITHFUL, FERVENT and FEARLESS—GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU!🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“And the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?” (Job‬ ‭1:8‬)
