What Is Joy ?

What Is Joy ?

Then Ezra said to them, “Go [your way], eat the rich festival food, drink the sweet drink, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be worried, for the joy of the LORD is your strength and your stronghold.” – Nehemiah 8:10 AMP

Being Content

               As a new divorcee , and single mother I have learned the practice of being content in every season that I am in. I find myself revisiting memories of bad choices and decisions that I made in the past, and determining to do better this time. Now being back in my personal territory of Chicago, I find myself mentally healing. I have been forced to face some painful things that happened but God has been alongside me through it all. I know that in the future I will be released for something great, but now I am content where I am in life.

               I think as a believer it is important to learn the art and talent of being content. Many times people post their “success” on social media – but a picture could truly be a lie. People only post what they want you to see, not what is really going on behind closed doors. When you learn to be content, you are not bound by what people think.. I learned this from following Christ closely in this season.

               When you focus on grief your life will be cut short by grief. Life (despite what people teach) is not meant to be filled with pain and suffering – but with joy. You have to learn how to make your personal life journey “joyous”.  When release joy into the atmosphere, it makes it easier for gravity to return joy back to you by law of attraction.

Honor Yourself

               I am a firm believer of not waiting for someone to do what I know how to do myself. Today why don’t you honor yourself? Compliment yourself? Encourage yourself? Stop waiting for someone else to affirm you and affirm yourself. Learn the art of engulfing yourself with healthy books, good podcasts, and words of affirmation that will draw you closer to God.

Who Do I personally listen to?

Below I posted some people and some books that I am reading right now in life.

1 – The praying mom by Stormie Omartian.

2 – I have begun to listen to sermons by Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell

3 – I have started reading this book by Heidi St. John (Bible Promises For Moms)

               I have made the decision in my own life that I will not allow what happened to me to be the cause of me becoming a failure. I think in life I have had to push past a lot of abuse that I endured as a child – let it go and give it to God. Because I can’t allow what happened to me destroy me mentally, physically, and emotionally. I have mastered smiling again, liking what I see when I look in the mirror and loving the fact that I am alive. But it took a long time to accomplish that.

               In life you can’t allow what people do to be the pilot of your emotions. You must move on. I pray that whatever is causing you to toss and turn at night will be released and fly away from your mind so that you can have peace.

Vision Of An Island

               I remember there was a time not too long ago, I would close my eyes and envision myself living peacefully on an island by myself. That reality that I formed in my mind was better than my reality. Ironically, overtime my life (in real life) became a beautiful version of what I envisioned in my own mind.

               I had to learn to let go of what people have done and move on. Let me tell you the people who have done evil to me in the past have been repaid and some are even dead now. But I learned that the people who hurt my feelings are dead, and I am still alive. I have officially outlived all the naysayers, lies, and gossip about me… So, there is no point of living a life of depression. Life is not purposed and meant for you to live in some sort of emo state – but instead to live a life filled with joy.

               In life, you should not be waking up looking forward to death – but looking forward to something new each day. Your life is still in the filming stages of something great so keep going. I believe that God is going to generate something greater and better for you. I believe that happiness will become a regular emotion for you.

Cut Out Toxic People In Your Life

               There is a old saying that goes that you are the company that you keep and that is true. When you remove people who are toxic and are set in there ways of “toxic-ness” – then you will see a transformation of your life. At 29 years old I have had to practice this and yes toxic people don’t like that and I don’t care. People who are ill intentioned should not be in your life and should not be in your vicinity. That will help you have mental clarity as well. Don’t waste your time and energy on people who are “fake” and mean you no good. You want to be surrounded by people who genuinely love you and want you to succeed in life.

Conclusion

               When you surround yourself with joy then you will indeed have joy. To have joy you have to remove people from your life who mean you no good. Focus. Remain positive. Live a little. Things will surely change … Slowly but surely for the better.

So I Have No Idea Why This Court Case Is Still Open Because I Was Told That It Was Dismissed

So hello everybody , I am so sick and tired of people playing with me that I realized that God gave me wisdom and strategy on how to deal with ignorance , lies, and slander so I have so much time today. So In 2020 – 2021 my name was on a house at 7905 Esther Drive and the house was big, now I made the wrong decision to move into a house with some nasty behind family members that jumped me because I was in college and lied on me, but you already know they lost that fight lol . Not only that, I was sued by the former landlord because he claims that I still lived in the house which is a LIE ! Now, if Ra’keem and Tanya trifling behind still trying to get in there that has nothing to do with me. Now, what is even more stupid is that Ra’keem ain’t NEVER lived a life like how I provided and he tried to ruin my life but no baby he shall NOT ruin my life, I got time to day. See below is a list of all the court cases involving Ra’keem that has nothing to do with me. Below are the court cases involving Tanya (Ra’keem mother) that has nothing to do with me. I am so tired of people trying to attach my name and influence to their mess so I have sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much time today. Since, Ra’keem wants to keep lying and adding my information and address on his mess I have time today as of January 27, 2024. Whatever legal troubles that is occurring with Tanya Jackson, Rakeem Jackson, and April Hawes, and Kyle Brown has NOTHING to do with me. Oh and by the way 🙂 as a journalist I hold my write to the Freedom Of The Press and Freedom Of Religion according to the United States Of America Constitution. Baby, I got sooooo much time today.

Below is the picture of the house proving that I do not live in that house and a eviction never did happen because I did not stay there long enough due to the toxic nature of the house and it is inhabitable.

Below Is The Court Cases Involving Ra’keem Jackson, April Hawes, and Tanya Jackson that has nothing to do with me.

You’re getting older. You don’t move as quick as you used to. You’re tired alot easier and it seems like the years are just passing by.. You know why? You’re still angry. You are angry and it is time to give it to God. They used to say that life is a blink of a eye and that is not true. Life can be beautiful and long when you live it the right way. You are more than a conqueror. You are important. You are strong in Christ Jesus. Today? Give all of what happened to you to God. Let God heal you.

Father , help me to release what has been hurting me for years. If any sin should hinder this prayer, I ask to be forgiven. In Jesus Name, I pray thank God Amen.

We Need God To Survive  

then the LORD God formed [that is, created the body of] man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being [an individual complete in body and spirit]. – Genesis 2:7  

** 

As I was looking at Hurricane Ian and the damage it has done to Florida and South Carolina I was very terrified at God of what I saw. There were many video’s of people claiming that the ocean was in the street’s of South Carolina and it was indeed. The barrier was gone from the Ocean.  

Have you no respect for me? Why don’t you tremble in my presence? I, the LORD, define the ocean’s sandy shoreline as an everlasting boundary that the waters cannot cross. The waves may toss and roar, but they can never pass the boundaries I set. – Jeremiah 5:22 

It is evident that boundaries were gone in that circumstance. Honestly, that was just a preview of what is to come. People may continue in their sin but God will always continue unleashing his judgment just as he did sodom and gomorrah.  

Then the LORD rained down fire and burned sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.- Genesis 19:24

Being Busy For God (Christ Jesus) 

Acts 14:19-21 

Amplified Bible 

19 But Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium, and having won over the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, thinking he was dead. 20 But the disciples formed a circle around him, and he got up and went back into the city; and the next day he went on with Barnabas to Derbe. 21 They preached the good news to that city and made many disciples, then they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, 

Have Your Friends Recently Betrayed You? 

In the beginning of my ministry, I had a lot of church people who pretended to be on my side. I was so young I was only 19 years old at the time and had no idea how cruel the “church” world was. Anyway, I was meeting people who had been in ministry longer than I had but did not hear God as accurately as I did. People who were “fake friends” called me to pray for them when they were having nervous break downs. But when I went through my trial no one wanted to help.  

The years of 2014-2021 were my wilderness years. I learned so much about people, jealousy, and betrayal. I learned “not to give your pearls to the swine or they will turn around and attack you”. People have prophesied and prayed all types of things about me due to jealousy and none of it has come to pass because The Lord is on my side (Joshua 5:14). There were times that all I could do was laugh because I literally could not believe what I was going through.  

Years later, I know that I am a Female Apostle Paul. I know that is what God has spoken to me about me (Galatians 1:16). Like Paul said in Galatians I did not consult anyone, I obeyed Christ. So this is for you. If your friends who have recently betrayed, you … guess what? They did it to Christ and they did it to me to. Betrayal makes a prophet strong so keep going! 

“Time heals all wounds” – God to Prophetess Diamond S. Chessier  

Ecclesiastes 3:3-5 

King James Version 

3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 

5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 

Prayer  

Father, help me to simply focus on you. In Jesus Name, Amen.
