Abba Father…Forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Renew our strength day-by-day so that we might endure in tumultuous and uncertain times like these.

For You sit high in all of your majesty, but you look low with an everlasting love for your children—nothing escapes You holy vision.👁️

We’ve fallen for the tricks and traps of the enemy; and we’ve been cast down by the unjust cruelty of this wicked world—reach down even now with your hand of mercy and deliver us!

For you have been our hope when we’ve felt hopeless, our help when helpless, and our strength when weak and defeated.

Nevertheless, we steadfastly stand in Faith as we look to You, Oh God, to raise us up out of the horrible pit of pain and sin to hide us in the safety of your loving arms once again.

Thank You for being a good-good Father! Hallelujah and Amen!🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you”. (Psalms 32:8)

Allow your Holy Spirit to rest, rule and abide with each of us as we Grow, Glow and Go—doing Greater works for Your Glory!

Thank you, Father, for hearing and answering this humble prayer…In the mighty Name of Jesus I pray and praise always…Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” (Matthew 5:14 ESV)

Many people will “wear” The Cross around their neck or tattooed on their body as a symbol of beauty or outward expression. But few are willing to “bear” The Cross, becoming a true disciple of Christ.

This type of FAITH requires total sacrifice of self; a change on the inside that prompts actions on the outside as we believe and trust in Jesus—walking the same path of life that HE walked with all of its shame, pain and gain.

Remember…there are no crown-wearers👑 in Heaven that were not cross-bearers✝️on earth—No Cross, No Crown.✝️👑🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.”” (Mark 10:21)

Heavenly Father, Thank You for your mercies that are new to us every morning, and Your grace that covers us every night!

For You indeed are a deliverer to those suffering and in despair. You alone can Save to the utmost; allow the purifying power of your Holy Spirit to cleanse the hearts and lives of your children from all things that dishonor you and hinder us from doing your perfect Will.

We cast off every form of unrighteousness and yield our total being to your transforming grace—You are the Potter and we are the clay; Lord, help us to trust You and walk in holiness day-by-day!

Bless us, so that we might be blessings to others. Strengthen us, so that we might be strong even in our weakest hour. Magnify your love, joy and peace in our hearts so that it will overflow onto others. Help us to be the salt and light in a unsavory world filled with the darkness of sin.

Endow us with the Fruit of The Spirit so that we might show a dying world we serve a Living Savior! We desire our light of salvation to shine bright so that others will see YOU and know the true love of Christ by our living testimony.

Father, help us to SEEK MORE OF YOU every day. It’s In the mighty name of Jesus I humbly pray and praise always, Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.” (Matthew 7:7-8 ESV)

Hallelujah!!! HE IS RISEN!!☝🏾🙌🏼

It’s RESURRECTION SUNDAY…Let’s give glory and honor to The King of Kings, The Lord of Lords, The Great I Am, The Lamb that was slain, so that we could wear HIS NAME…CHRISTIAN!!🙌🏼🩸🙏🏽M. Ford

As we prepare to celebrate Resurrection Sunday in all of its glory, remember to take some time today to meditate on WHY this Friday is called “GOOD”. Until we understand the significance of Good Friday, we can’t truly understand Resurrection Sunday.

TODAY…meditate on the depth of Jesus’ sacrifice for us in his suffering a humiliating, bloody death by crucifixion—a form of death reserved for the most violent and vicious criminals, but most undeserving to be suffered by CHRIST. Just imagine…SCORNED. SPAT ON. BEATEN. SCOURGED. CROWNED WITH THORNS. PIERCED. NAILED TO A RUGGED CROSS…JESUS suffered for us, in all its pain and intensity, but still CHRIST didn’t Quit on the Cross so that you and I wouldn’t be lost—NOW THAT’S LOVE!✝️♥️

RISING from all the pain and agony of crucifixion comes the GOOD NEWS of EASTER—RESURRECTION SUNDAY IS ON THE WAY!🙌🏼☝🏾 BECAUSE CHRIST LIVES, those who Believe and Receive HIM have New Life!✝️🙏🏽 Thank you, FATHER, for GOOD FRIDAY!🩸☝🏾🙌🏼♥️🙏🏽~M. Ford

It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour, while the sun’s light failed. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last. (Luke 23:44)

“A RIGHT NOW WORD”

BELOVED…It’s in the Valley we grow. It’s there our Faith is strengthened; Testimonies are forged; and Lessons are learned in the valley.

Even though it’s no fun going through life’s valleys, it’s oftentimes the only way to get to our God-ordained 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 when GOD says GO forward didn’t work for Lot’s wife and it won’t work for you!

👉🏽 So, Just keep on walking forward, pressing through the pain to the promise! Valley’s don’t last always—Just hold on and be strong! Remember…the Shadows you see in the Valley are not reflective of your true image. Speak GOD’S Truths over your life—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 and gain—better and brighter days are just ahead!🔜🙏🏽~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)

BELOVED…Are you are wondering WHY you don’t always “fit in” with the crowd? Are you wondering WHY what the world tags as “normal” doesn’t appeal to you? Are you wondering WHY the road you are on seems less traveled and the masses are rushing down paths that appeal to the lusts of the flesh—doing only what matter to them?

Stop wondering and start praising GOD! You have been Called out, Picked and Planted For GOD’S Purpose.

Take your STAND. Be Spiritually READY. You have been Equipped and Empowered for such a time as this!

The devil can’t defeat you coming head on at you because of your Armor—Ephesians 6:13. The enemy’s next move to get to you is to go through those around you. Don’t be deceived…After all the same tactic was used on Job during his time of testing and trials.

Start Praising God NOW for keeping His Hand ON you while working His PLAN through you! YOUR NAME IS VICTORY!☝🏾🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. (I Peter 2:9 NKJV)

BELOVED, It’s not a coincidence that so many of God’s people are being attacked and afflicted with sickness, sadness, disease and disaster. After all, We are Called to INTERCEDE and STAND IN THE GAP WITH PRAYERS for a sick and dying world; especially for those who don’t have the strength, understanding, discernment or will to pray for themselves and others during these difficult times.

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—GOD HAS CHOSEN EACH OF US 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 even in the face of sickness, pain, hurt and heartache—GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU!☝🏾🙌🏼

KEEP ON DRIPPING JESUS🩸and Not Sweating with FEAR!😰 YOU ARE ARMED AND DANGEROUS WITH THE WORD, PRAISE AND PRAYER!💪🏽📖🙌🏼🙏🏽🔥

The pressure and pain of the weight of this life is only relieved and released through the FERVENT PRAYERS of the RIGHTEOUS, so…APPROPRIATE THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, PLEAD THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, and CALL ON THAT UNDEFEATABLE NAME OF JESUS!

STAY ON THE WALL SAINTS and REFUSE TO COME DOWN because GOD’S STILL WORKING—IT’S MANIFESTATION TIME!☝🏾🙌🏼🩸💪🏽🔥🙏🏽~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)
