Daily Devotional – 3/1/16 “Sometimes you need to let go!”

When a baby begins to pull up on tables and things, in an attempt to walk, there’s usually someone behind them ready to catch them when their legs wobble or if they just happen to stumble. Why? Well because you, as someone older, recognize that their legs and arms aren’t strong enough, yet, to hold them so you brace for the impact of them falling or letting go. I mean, you wouldn’t tell the baby, you’re on your own now, would you? Well beloved, I stopped by today; just for a minute to let you know that God is behind you and He’s braced Himself for the impact of you falling or letting go. Yes, He recognizes the fact that you may be in over your head, you’re tired, you’re weak or that you’re at your wit’s end and He’s prepared to catch you. See, I’ve come to know that God will pick up where we fall short if we trust in Him enough to let Him. I know, for a fact, that God will catch us if we fall because I’ve tried Him and He did. I know, without a shadow of a doubt, that God will be there when we let go because I have and He was. I’m a living witness that God is there. All you have to do is trust in Him to catch you. I don’t know what you’re dealing with, what you’re in, what you’re trying to get out of, what sickness is attacking you, what fear that has you paralyzed or what naysayer you have in your ear but I do know a Man who’ll never leave you nor forsake you.

Dear sister, dear brother; let go. Surrender yourself to God and let Him do it. My brother, my sister; let it go with the assurance that God’s net of undying love will catch you. I know you’re scared, I know it may be taking you out of your comfort zone, I know it looks like it may hurt, I know you don’t want to lose folk but baby, sometimes you have to let go in order to see that God is able.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones.” Proverbs 3:5-8

Daily Devotional – 2/29/16 “Another month is leaving …”

Another month of 2016 is winding down. How has this year been to you so far? Are you still making excuses? Still holding on to what could have happened but didn’t? Still fretting over what happened even though you had no control of it? Or have you stepped out on faith and into your destiny? Have you gotten out of the boat or is fear still holding you? Have you gotten in position to give birth or is the pain too much? Have you come out of the cave or are you scared of the enemy that’s camped outside? Have you discarded those grave clothes yet and lived? Yes or no? Why or why not? These are questions only you can answer. Stop blaming somebody or something; you’re the only one who has the key to your happiness. You can’t be upset because dude went back to his wife, he wasn’t yours. You can’t be mad because girl said she no longer wanted you, be glad you didn’t invest more time. You can’t keep getting mad at folk for not wanting to babysit your kids, they’re yours. You can’t keep harping on the fact nobody will pick you up, the bus runs almost every day. You can’t blame society, you’re grown; take responsibility. Chile, just stop with the excuses.

All you have to do is look around and you’ll look into the face of somebody sick who still gets up to go to work because if they don’t work, they don’t eat or have insurance. If you happen to turn around, you may just run into someone who’s grieving yet they didn’t allow the death to kill them. Pull up social media and look at the parents who are living with a sick child but still manage to be strong. Go to a local church and look into the eyes of a pastor who has the cares of the flock on his/her shoulders as well as those of their household and still manage to work at the church 3-4 days out of the week listening to your woes. Talk to somebody at the job, drive under the underpass and see the folk living there, go into the ICU of your local hospital or simply walk the streets of your city and see how bad things could really be. No, I’m not saying you don’t have the right to have a bad day but don’t stay in the midst of your excuses. Because then you’ll start living the excuse and in ten years, you’ll regret today. Today can be the first day of the best day of your life but you’ve got to initiate the process. And it begins by throwing out the excuse of ‘I can’t.’

Daily Devotional – 2/25/16 “Excuses!”

I can make an excuse as to why I didn’t write a devotional yesterday. I can blame the fact that I had to attend an all-day training summit (today too) but the fact of the matter is, I could have found the time, had I tried hard enough. However, it’s easier to make an excuse because this is the time we live in. We make an excuse as to why we’re still staying at our parent’s house. We have an excuse as to why we can’t do more with our life. We use old excuses as to why we can’t forgive folk. We will find an excuse not to like somebody. And we all know there are multiple excuses as to why we can’t go to worship on Sunday. But what will be the excuse if we don’t make it to see Jesus? What excuse could we possibly give that will be sufficient enough to explain away our reason for not serving the Lord? Listen, stop making excuses. It’s not the job’s fault you’re being held back, it’s not momma or daddy’s fault as to why you can’t take care of yourself, it’s not your sister’s fault because she wouldn’t keep your children and it’s not society’s fault for the trouble you get in.

We have to get to a place in our life where we stop making excuses and start doing something productive. It’s almost the end of the second month of 2016, what excuse do you have as to why you’re worse off now than you were in 2015? You made a list of resolutions, what’s your excuse for not doing them? Excuses are easy to get in but hard to get out of because once you start, you won’t stop. Why? Because it’ll be easier for you to make an excuse instead of actually doing something. Yes, I know this devotional isn’t as long as normal but that’s because I’m headed back to training, however I didn’t make an excuse as to why I couldn’t do it today. Yes, it would have been easier but then what? Stop making excuses as to why you can’t go back to school, finish that book you’ve started, lose weight, clean out that closet, apply for that new job or even forgive somebody who has hurt you. An excuse has the power to keep you bound, if you let it. Stop making excuses, today! Don’t come up with a reason why you can’t because you can. Do it!
