Revelation 12 : 1 -11

Revelation 12:1-11New International Version

The Woman and the Dragon

12 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.”[a] And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.

Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:

“Now have come the salvation and the power
    and the kingdom of our God,
    and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
    who accuses them before our God day and night,
    has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over him
    by the blood of the Lamb
    and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much
    as to shrink from death.

Do You Understand Your Testimony? 

In life there are many difficult trials that you may encounter . Honestly , in 2023 I went through some of the toughest trials I have endured as an adult woman that led to the process of divorce . I didn’t want to share my testimony, yet God reminded me in the book of Esther that Queen Esther was warned by her uncle Mordecai that if she did not speak and do what God said then she would perish . Your testimony is keeping you from perishing . Understand that if God carried you through a storm , then it was meant that he would get glory in your testimony. Remember that . So today , do not be embarrassed about your testimony but instead share it so that other people can be encouraged and persuaded to follow Jesus . 

May The Lord Bless You ,

Starting My Life Over At 27 Years Old

Hmm …

For a long time God has been calling me into full time ministry .. actually since I was 19 . I never really obeyed . I was running and just refused to submit to his will . In 2023 , things were going so well I had a church building , my church was registered … but I made one BIG mistake . I married a man (Ra’keem) that God told me not to marry .

Because of Ra’keem , I lost my church building in Kinston , North Carolina. I was wrongfully ejected from my home (because of him) in New Bern , North Carolina . Thrown into jail for a crime I did not commit and so much more . To make matters worst Ra’keem is a pastor . Yes , he is a pastor and I find out that Ra’keem is actually on drugs and was hiding it from me . Yes . Not only that , Ra’keem stole Mercedes car keys from a car dealership. How did I find out ? Well , the dealership came to the house looking for him while claiming that another worker also thinks that Ra’keem stole his phone also . What was Ra’keems answer ? Apparently everyone is out to get Ra’keem , no one will give Ra’keem a chance because he is dark skin , and the dealership said he could take the keys . I should probably should add that Ra’keem lied and said he bought 5 cars from them and that he was going to give them baseball cards (because in his mind the baseball cards are worth 10 million dollars (which is not true ) as a payment for a new car . Yeah . God told me not to marry him .
So at the age of 27 I have to start completely over . A single mommy , A Apostle , and a gospel singer finally submitting to full time ministry because God is stronger than me and he wins . So yes , now I am full time ministry . I am going to take this blog more serious because God told me to . I love my followers. Happy New Years and I hope 2024 goes better for me and you as well .

Book Review : Jesus Always Sarah Young

Review :

So true story . When I was wayward I was in a store and walked pass Sarah Young book titled Jesus Calling . When I was younger I had a lot of anger , a lot hatred , and a lot of hurt from what I had been through . Yet , this little pretty purple book was there and maroon book was staring at me and I figured why not give it a shot . So I read it and I felt like every day my anger subsided. Everyday my anger and issues became easier to deal with and to heal from a lot of different things that I went through in my life . I began to really talk to God and ask God how do I go through this and how do I survive the pain and turmoils of life and God gave me my own path and it has been working . One of her books actually inspired me to write a devotional and I’m still writing . I thought it was cool how low key her life is and yet she is a author . I recommended her book . Though she does get persecuted as a author , understand that all people that are doing what God says will suffer a persecution . Hope you enjoyed this short review . Have a blessed day !

Sincerely ,

So I’ll do what he say’s . So throughout the next few years you’re going to see some of his boxing things on my blog . I think it’s cool that I’m a boxer’s wife .

Accepting That God Is Hiding Me & It’s Beautiful


My Story : 17 Now the king was attracted to Esther more than to any of the other women, and she won his favor and approval more than any of the other virgins. So he set a royal crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti. – Esther 2:17

**

Lately I have been asking God a lot of questions and God says to me , “keep going and don’t worry about that . I’m hiding you”. Whew. It’s been blowing my mind . A lot of people tell me I’m beautiful, but I had to learn how evil and cruel people can be when they are jealous of someone’s beauty . I have done a lot of realizing and after talking to my husband Ra’keem , he confirmed that a lot of the evil things people have done to me is because I’m beautiful and it’s jealousy. So lately , I have been finding my encouragement and strength in the book of Psalms & Esther . I realized that Esther was a beautiful woman but she went through some things . She was a Queen in waiting , God was hiding her and she suffered to be Queen . No , I do not think King Xerxes was sexually abusive … I think he was a man . No King Xerxes didn’t wait to marriage . King Xerxes had multiple women and he was sleeping with them all while dating Esther ( Esther knew what he was doing because he was honest about it , but Esther knew that God gave her a promise that one day she would be Queen & King Xerxes would indeed be faithful to her & only her ). So Esther stayed there , she probably was even in the same room when he was sleeping with other women & she stayed being obedient unto death . That obedience caused her to be a Queen and led him to be faithful to only her . Back in those days a King would sleep with his concubine and then roll over and sleep with his wife (literally ) . Back in those days while a woman was trying to become Queen he would sleep with the concubine and roll over and sleep with the other woman trying to decide which one he liked better , that’s just how it was .

**

In the midst of that God was hiding Esther to protect her . Yeah , Esther was probably there when King Xerxes slept with all those women and probably saw everything . Yet , she was still being hidden to become the future Queen of Persia .
**

There are women all over the world . My husband is not the only handsome man out there . As man you might be handsome . I know you can’t understand why people are doing means things to you it’s because you’re attractive & God has to hide you . In this modern world the most abominable people desire beauty but in a demonic way , so when demon possessed people see the heavenly beauty of Jesus on it makes them angry . So God has to protect you , hold you back , and send you on a different route . It’s going to be okay ! So keep going.
