Daily Bread

God wants simplicity in our prayer life so that we can draw closer to him. Repentance is so important but also humility. Watch my new YouTube video below on my channel For She Loved Much about prayer. God bless you.

2 Kings 4:7 The Message (MSG)

She went and told the story to the man of God. He said, “Go sell the oil and make good on your debts. Live, both you and your sons, on what’s left.”

six-course dinner

Wow. When I think of the goodness of Jesus.

These last few years have been so hard and very difficult. These last few years have been wilderness years and although I have been spoiled, I have had nothing. Literally. I’ve cried, I’ve wept, and I struggled as God has been chastening me and molding me into my purpose. My purpose as His Gomer. My purpose of the surrender. My purpose of all things. But let’s judge nothing before its time. I want to write about something. Something important. Something special. I want to write about six-course dinner.

Some may say I am crazy but people said Jesus had a demon so I will ignore the insult.

I date Jesus. What does that mean? I ask Him “Lord what do you want to do today? Where do you want to eat?”

On this day He told me to go to Red Lobster and the Word of the Lord for my life was Psalm 23 The Message Bible (MSG)

Psalm 23 The Message (MSG)

A David Psalm

23 1-3 God, my shepherd!
    I don’t need a thing.
You have bedded me down in lush meadows,
    you find me quiet pools to drink from.
True to your word,
    you let me catch my breath
    and send me in the right direction.

Even when the way goes through
    Death Valley,
I’m not afraid
    when you walk at my side.
Your trusty shepherd’s crook
    makes me feel secure.

You serve me a six-course dinner
    right in front of my enemies.
You revive my drooping head;
    my cup brims with blessing.

Your beauty and love chase after me
    every day of my life.
I’m back home in the house of God
    for the rest of my life.

Follow Me as I am Honest with you and how this pertains to us as Christians. I hope this blesses you.

You have bedded me down in lush meadows

23 1-3 God, my shepherd!
    I don’t need a thing.
You have bedded me down in lush meadows,
    you find me quiet pools to drink from.
True to your word,
    you let me catch my breath
    and send me in the right direction.

I think a lot of times when we hear the story of King-David we forget there was a time where his brothers said he was prideful, his father and mother had forsaken me, Saul was trying to kill him, Israel threw stones at him, friends betrayed him, and he was a poor man (Psalms 34:6). I love this because it shows love. To think this man King-David went through all of this and still loved God. That’s the kind of love we should all strive to have for God because He is good.

Now think about this (being honest I need this to), all of this was going and David still allowed God to be his shepherd. We mess up in our Christian walk when we believe that we don’t need a shepherd and try to function without one. Or even when the King forgets that they still need Jesus. I just have to put this. Especially in leadership… I was reading a verse in The Message Bible and here it is below

Matthew 11:28-30 The Message (MSG)

28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

This is what the Son Of David (Jesus) said and it works together with Psalm 23. All Things.

Death Valley

Even when the way goes through
    Death Valley,
I’m not afraid
    when you walk at my side.
Your trusty shepherd’s crook
    makes me feel secure.

Now let me tell you why I love this… I live in Chicago, Illinois. South Side. I began to walk with God and to honestly think nothing and I was not worried. It was later brought to my attention that where I live is literally almost a war zone. I’m not saying this to boast I’m saying that when you have the Holy Spirit you are able to walk through Death Valley and not be afraid. I know because I live it. People may not understand but that’s ok because God does. I understand also. I understand that the word of God is sharper than any two edged sword (I believe God for Hawaii though (Laugh Like Sarah) In Jesus Name!

Now this right here? I felt the ghost on this one. I don’t know what type of anointing oil Red Lobster put in their food but I felt the blood. lol . Honestly It was great, my server was a Christian like me and we were able to share our faith with one another so that was awesome in itself. You will also know that you are supposed to be somewhere when God confirms it with His Word.

I’m back home in the house of God

Your beauty and love chase after me
    every day of my life.
I’m back home in the house of God
    for the rest of my life.

I love this because it shows that God does have beauty. When he was here on this earth there was no beauty that we should desire him and because of this Jesus is the only one who was in flesh yet has not sinned. I love our Chief Intercessor. He is amazing. I love the portion of this verse when it talks about the house of God, because we all need a church home. I pray you find one.

Honest

Being a Christian requires you to be a hard worker and to trust God. It allows you to inquire of him and encounter His grace and His mercy. I promise you He is a good God. His goodness.

Verses To Remember:

Psalm 20:7 Some nations boast of their

chariots and horses,

but we boast in the name of the

LORD our God.
