It is extremely important that you know the power of your tongue. Your words and thoughts can bless you or curse you. It is amazing how many Christians walk around with such negative attitudes. It is evident life has taken a toll on their souls and if they are not careful their inner spirit.
Something miraculous happens when we speak. Our words manifest to the cells and smallest “particles” that we are made of. Imagine the difference we can make in the outcome of our battles and ultimately our lives if we not only hear God’s Word, but believe it, decree it with faith and bold confidence, and then we put ACTION to it. If we do this, then even when the storms come (and we know they will come) we will walk through the storms with a peace that surpasses understanding. We will take a God form that will make everyone say, what is this that he/she is able to rise to victory even during the storms.
To be successful during these times we must take control over ourselves, our thoughts, our actions. We must use every weapon God has given us. So you need to know that your tongue is EXTREMELY powerful. It controls your destiny. You can use it to either bless yourself or curse yourself. The bible talks about it in Proverbs 18:21, James 1:26 and James 3:2-10
Proverbs 18:21
21 The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit.
James 1:26
26If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
James 3:2-10
2We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check.
3When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. 5Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
7All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, 8but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.

The title of this posting says it all. Here is John 15:18-21 (New International Version)
18″If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. 19If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. 20Remember the words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’[a] If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. 21They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me.

Thank you Jesus for all that you have done, are doing, and will do for all of us! I love you so much! On this day, December 25th we celebrate your birth as God in the flesh on Earth. Though we know you pre-existed with Father God from the beginning to the end. You are one with God Almighty, the Alpha and Omega.
And we love you and Father God so much! There are no words that can express the feeling in my heart for you and Father God. There are no words that can do any justice to God’s perfect plan that you stayed committed to and carried out for us. The love you and Father God have for us brings tears to my eyes. My heart quakes for you. The love that I have for you and Father God is so strong it makes me cry, gasp for air, shake, scream, talk in tongues and more.
I know people don’t always take the time to really think about the ultimate sacrifice that God the Father made and you carried out for all of our sin! Thank you for becoming like man and taking on ALL of our sin so that we could be redeemed spiritually forever. Thank you for saving us!! You are Holy. You are Supreme. You are Majestic. You and Father God are my EVERYTHING! Lord God, how I love you so much. Lord Jesus, how I appreciate you.
Because you remained sinless, took up the cross, suffered an unimaginable death for us, I will live on spiritually forever. Hallelujah!!!!
It is your shed blood, your broken body, your commitment to establishing a New Covenant, a New Testament for the kingdom of God that blows me away. It is in your Holy, Miracle-Working Name that I and all those who believe have unimaginable power. Hallelujah!!
Lord I thank you and truly love you so much. Because of your “birth” on Earth, I became a new creature in you. I was re-birthed spiritually the day I started to believe. And now I have access to Father God through you Jesus. Thank you!! God thank you for your grace and mercy and love that endures forever. Thank you for loving me, my children, and loved ones so much that you gave us the way to you. Thank you for giving us access to you Father God through our belief in Jesus.
I could go on and on about my love, and gratitude to Father God and Jesus Christ, my savior.
But I will stop now and simply repeat with all my heart, Happy Birthday Jesus!! I love you Father God. I love you Jesus Christ and I love the Holy Spirit that dwells in me.
Walking in complete love,
Tayarisha Joyce

I logged onto Sid Roth’s website sidroth.org and watched an episode where a guy (Bruce Van Natta) was almost cut in half. During the accident that caused his injury, two tall angels appear out of nowhere and begin administering help.
But rather than hear it from me, try viewing the Sid Roth episode where Bruce Van Natta retells the story.
If that link doesn’t work, try viewing it in Windows Media Player by clicking here.
It brings tears to my eyes. Jesus is real and loves us just as God the Father does. I sure hope you believe.
I know I am protected by at least one angel. I don’t always thank them enough but I have on occassion thanked them for being obedient to God in protecting me and my loved ones. I’d like to encourage all of us to give thanks to God the Father, Jesus the Son, the Holy Spirit, and also our angels. They are real. If they were not, why would the bible make so many references to them. Read Psalm 91, which I pray for protection of loved ones (especially my kids). In particular, look at Psalm 91:11,12
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
And look at Psalm 91:14-16 where those who love and call on Jesus are bestowed these promises:
14 “Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”

Get Saved So You Have Access To God, His Glory, and His Promises
All you have to do is to pray something similar to this: God I believe in you Heavenly Father. I believe in your only Begotten Son Jesus Christ. I believe that Jesus was birthed from the Virgin Mary. I believe Jesus walked this earth. I believe that Jesus was sent here by you for my salvation. I believe Jesus actually went to Calvary, was put on a cross and took on the burden of sin for me, my forefathers and foremothers and all to come after me. I believe that Jesus died on the cross at Calvary but on the third day after death, Jesus was resurrected. Jesus was risen to be in heaven with you Father God. And the Holy Ghost that Jesus gave up,dwells in me, the Holy Ghost in me is stirred up, it is awaken in me from this day forward. I ask Jesus to take over my heart. I ask for foregiveness of all my sins. I ask that any sin or anything that I’m not aware that displeases You Father God, that You make me aware of it so that I may ask for foregiveness and repent Heavenly Father. Jesus thank you for what you did for me and all my loved ones. Come into my heart and reign there forever, my Savior, my Lord, my King. I ask these things by the power, love, and redemption of the shed blood of Jesus. I ask these things with love and praise for you Heavenly Father. I am now a believer. And I ask these things in the name above all names, Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!

 A friend forwarded me an email that really made me think about the pain and suffering Jesus went through for all of us to have Access To God.
I encourage you to take a minute to read this, put it in perspective and give thanks to God the Father and Jesus Christ for their love, mercy, and grace of salvation (eternal heavenly spiritual life).
THE (SCIENTIFIC) DEATH OF JESUS
- At the age of 33, Jesus was condemned to the death penalty
- At the time crucifixion was the “worst” death. Only the worst criminals condemned to be crucified. Yet it was even more dreadful for Jesus, unlike other criminals condemned to death by crucifixtion Jesus was to be nailed to the cross by His hands and feet.
- Each nail was 6 to 8 inches long.
- The nails were driven into His wrist. Not into His palms as is commonly portrayed. There’s a tendon in the wrist that extends to the shoulder. The Roman guards knew that when the nails were being hammered into the wrist that tendon would tear and break, forcing Jesus to use His back muscles to support himself so that He could breath.
- Both of His feet were nailed together. Thus He was forced to support Himself on the single nail that impaled His feet to the cross. Jesus could not support himself with His legs because of the pain so He was forced to alternate between arching His back then using his legs just to continue to breath. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the suffering, the courage.
- Jesus endured this reality for over 3 hours.
- Yes, over 3 hours! Can you imagine this kind of suffering? A few minutes before He died, Jesus stopped bleeding. He was simply pouring water from his wounds.
- From common images we see wounds to His hands and feet and even the spear wound to His side. But do we realize His wounds were actually made in his body. A hammer driving large nails through the wrist, the feet overlapped and an even large nail hammered through the arches, then a Roman guard piercing His side with a spear. But before the nails and the spear Jesus was whipped and beaten. The whipping was so severe that it tore the flesh from His body. The beating so horrific that His face was torn and his beard ripped from His face. The crown of thorns cut deeply into His scalp. Most men would not have survived this torture.
- He had no more blood to bleed out, only water poured from His wounds. The human adult body contains about 3.5 litres (just less than a gallon) of blood.
- Jesus poured all 3.5 litres of his blood; He had three nails hammered into his members; a crown of thorns on his head and, beyond that, a Roman soldier who stabbed a spear into his chest.
- All these without mentioning the humiliation He passed after carrying his own cross for almost 2 kilometers, while the crowd spat in his face and threw stones (the cross was almost 30 kg of weight, only for its higher part, where his hands were nailed).
- Jesus had to endure this experience, so that you can have free access to God.
- So that your sins could be “washed” away. All of them, with no exception! Don’t ignore this situation. JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR YOU! For you, who now read this. Do not believe that He only died for others (those who go to church or for pastors, bishops, etc).
- He died for you! It is easy to pass jokes or foolish photos by e-mail, but when it comes to God, sometimes you feel ashamed to forward to others because you are worried of what they may think about you.
- Accept the reality, the truth that JESUS IS THE ONLY SALVATION FOR THE WORLD.
Salvation Scripture
Romans 10:9-13
9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
John 14:6
6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
- If you are not saved, you DO NOT have direct Access To God and you DO NOT have all the benefit of all the promises God gives to those who are saved, those who have gone through the rebirthing of themselves through salvation. But don’t worry, you don’t have to be good enough to be saved. God will accept you right where you are. He has done this for the worst criminals, the worst backsliders. There is nothing any of us can do to deserve this foregiveness of God. Instead it is a gift from Him because of His grace, mercy, and love for us! Thank God for that. So to ensure that you have Access To God and all the promises and blessings such as healing, prosperity, redemption, eternal spiritual life, you must be saved. All you have to do is to pray something similar to this: God I believe in you Heavenly Father. I believe in your only Begotten Son Jesus Christ. I believe that Jesus was birthed from the Virgin Mary. I believed Jesus walked this earth. I believe that Jesus was sent here by you for my salvation. I believe Jesus actually went to Calvary, was put on a cross and took on the burden of sin for me, my forefathers and foremothers and all to come after me. I believe that Jesus died on the cross at Calvary but on the third day after death, Jesus was resurrected. Jesus was risen to be in heaven with you Father God. And the Holy Ghost that Jesus gave up,dwells in me, the Holy Ghost in me is stirred up, it is awaken in me from this day forward. I ask Jesus to take over my heart. I ask for foregiveness of all my sins. I ask that any sin or anything that I’m not aware that displeases You Father God, that You make me aware of it so that I may ask for foregiveness and repent Heavenly Father. Jesus thank you for what you did for me and all my loved ones. Come into my heart and reign there forever, my Savior, my Lord, my King. I ask these things by the power, love, and redemption of the shed blood of Jesus. I ask these things with love and praise for you Heavenly Father. I am now a believer. And I ask these things in the name above all names, Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!
- God has plans for you, show all your friends what He experienced to save you. Now think about this! May God bless your life! And feel free to send your friends the link to this blog posting:
Walking In Love and Praying The Best For You,

I was watching The Jazzspel with Eric J. on The Word Network and he featured Pastor Tony Moore and his wife Kim Moore and a tool they created to help troubled marriages and to enrich healthy marriages. They created “Radical Love” a 12-week faith based marriage skills building program. On the show they included testimonies of couples that were black, white, young, old that had been through every challenge in a marriage. One couple faced several challenges in the course of a 5 year marriage including the death of a child, infidelity, unforegiveness and more. Yet their marriage has been saved with the Radical Love program.
Another couple dealt with the addiction of pornography. Another couple dealt with the man living a double life, and he had committed a crime and as a result of the dysfunction, their son was depressed and had considered suicide.
Yet all these couples were able to save their marriage. Now I’m sure they have to take one day at a time, but they were able to find a tool to help them with the process. And each couple highly recommended the program.
Kim Moore said on the show that she believes God is using President Obama and his marriage and family as an example and testimony of the importance and possibilty of marriage. And she feels God is about to make a great move concerning marriage and gave us the Obama’s as an example of a marriage filled with genuiness, spontaneity, and love.
Kim Moore went on to say how Radical Love is different than other workshops in that it gets each spouse to focus on their individual relationship with God.
Pastor Tony Moore and Kim Moore do visit churches and make presentations. But anyone interested in setting up small workshops or groups that cover the topics in Radical Love, should go to the site and order the Radical Love DVDs.
I think a marriage is worth fighting for. Why not use biblically based tools to fight? For more information visit http://www.radicallove.org
