Words of Encouragement Blog

Heavenly Father, as we begin this brand new week, Go before us, be with us, and work through us to accomplish every good work for your glory! Help us to be lights that shine for you as we walk by Faith and not by sight, casting off every form of unrighteousness and yielding the Fruit of The Spirit. We submit and surrender our total being, Mind-Body-Soul-Spirit, to your transforming grace. You are the Potter and we are the clay! Help us, Oh Lord, to trust you and obey as we walk in holiness day-by-day! It’s in the sovereign Name of Jesus I pray and praise always…Amen. 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“FREE Ain’t Always CHEAP!”

Salvation is FREE, but it’s certainly not CHEAP.

Jesus PAID a DEBT He did not owe, all because we owed a Debt that we could not PAY. JESUS PAID the COST on the CROSS ✝️ for our Salvation.

Now I’m FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST! Thank GOD Almighty for JESUS…I’m FREE AT LAST!☝🏾🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“FOCUS YOUR FAITH”

Perspective is everything. You can dwell on the various ways the devil tried to trip you up and cause you to stumble in the past year, or you can choose to Praise God for dispatching His Angels to catch you and keep you from falling!

Your Focus can be an albatross that holds you down, or a set of eagles wings to help you soar higher and glide into your destiny. The choice is yours…choose wisely.🙏🏽~M. Ford

#REVIVE2025

“A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—the Most High, who is my refuge—no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” (Psalm‬ ‭91:7-11‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

At The Appointed Time (when God is ready) He will open every door of impossibility. In the meantime, in between time, Keep the Faith, Listen to God’s voice, and Be READY to Move!🙏🏽🦅~M. Ford

Heavenly Father, I Pray for spiritual freshness to fall upon each of us individually and collectively as a body of believers to effectively serve in building up your kingdom here on earth.

Help us to use our spiritual gifts and talents for ministry, mission and witnessing to the unchurched and unsaved in our homes, communities and beyond.

I Pray for spirit-fed, spirit-lead, anointed pastors, teachers, preachers, leaders, prayer warriors and all true Christ-followers to rise up with holy boldness and proclaim that YOU ALONE are THE TRUE AND LIVING CHRIST!

Please Hear my humble prayer on this day…It’s In the strong and mighty Name of JESUS I pray and praise forever…Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Worship While You Wait!”

Are you still waiting on GOD to fulfill a Promise or answer a Prayer? Does your waiting seem to be weighing you down—causing your promise to be overshadowed by your pain? 

Don’t despair! GOD is not a man, that He should Lie; nor is He the son of man, that He should change His mind. If He said it…He will Do it! 

If He promised it…it will come to pass!The LORD, Your GOD, Will perfect that which concerns you!☝🏾

Pray With Expectancy!🙏🏽

Give GOD Radical Praise…NOW!🙌🏼

Hide God’s Word In Your Heart.📖 

Be Strong In The LORD💪🏽and of Good Courage 🦁while you WAIT. ⏰⏳

The Master is perfecting His Masterpiece!🙏🏽~M. Ford 

“The LORD will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands.”  (Psalms‬ ‭138:8‬)
