Say it!

I thought I’d reshare this post from last year. I don’t know who it’s for, but if it’s you, here’s what I need you to say. MY FAITH IS IN GOD, NOT FLESH! Say it with power because I need you to know, the devil is a liar. Whatever has been spoken over and against you, it is a lie and I’ve come with a counterattack declaring … The sickness or disease won’t kill you. You’ll live, even with the scars, but you’ve got to believe it. The grief. It won’t always be like this. You’ll smile again without your heart hurting so badly, but I need you to breathe through it. This dark place you’re in, it’ll e ..read more

STOP!

Stop allowing people to force you to be someone you’re not comfortable being! Stop staying in places you’re uncomfortable! Stop holding your peace when doing so hurts you! Stop thinking you HAVE to go, do, be, or give! Stop believing you can’t say no! Stop pouring all of yourself into people, places, and things! Stop thinking you don’t need to rest! Stop acting strong, all the time! Stop saying you’re okay when you’re not! Stop acting like you don’t need help! Stop devaluing your worth! Stop holding back! Stop giving the enemy credit! Stop thinking God won’t do what you need! Stop believing yo ..read more

Merry CHRISTmas

In the early morning of Christmas … For those who are crying themselves to sleep, I pray God’s peace will cover you like the warmest blanket until your tears cease and sleep increases. For those who are sitting next to a loved one’s sick bed, I’m praying God’s healing power flows in like a flood healing every broken bone or sick place, swiftly. For those whom depression has a grip on, I’m praying God‘s power releases you from the bonds and you’re able to breathe. For the victims of abuse (of any kind), I pray God closes the hand of your abuser, allows their belittling words to catch in their t ..read more

Get Up!

Twas the day before Christmas, and all you can find is confusion and misunderstanding in the depths of your mind. Sickness stormed in, death angel claimed some loved ones, bills piling up, depression won’t leave you alone, laid off, your marriage is troubled and your child is in the hospital or jail … what’s merry about this Christmas, right? Here’s what I’ve grown to understand, things will happen beyond our control and the day/time doesn’t change it. Yes, it hurt. Yes, it causes questions that you may or may not get the answers to. Yes, it causes tears and sleepless nights. Yes, to all the t ..read more

My first …

Guess what! No, guess. Okay, I’ll tell you. I’ve released my first audiobook!! Last Call is now an audiobook!! I’ve been praying about this process because there are some books I want to record, yet I took a leap of faith. Last Call is the result of that leap. Y’all it’s hard finding the right voice to convey words written, for me, because these books aren’t just books, they’re ministry. Well, y’all know. Anyway, … here’s the link. Let me know what you think. https://adbl.co/3TsV4Gd Last call signifies closing time is near, either place your last order or settle any open tabs. In life, it ..read more

Don’t miss the preparation …

Here it is, another Monday. The last one in November, 34 days before this year ends, and somebody is more lost by the minute. Maybe it’s because you’ve taken more losses than wins, this year. Maybe it’s because you’ve been sick, a lot, this year. Maybe it’s depression, a dark season that seems to have no end, or you’re simply tired of everything and everybody. Tired of having to scrape together and still struggling, praying with no answer, church hopping and no real connection, seeking but never finding, trusting and it’s taking a toil, or being patient with no results. On top of all this, you ..read more

Holiday Grief
Lakisha Johnson

Grief will make you curse and hate the holidays. Grief will have you contemplating staying in bed. Grief will make you feel guilty about enjoying the holidays, you love. Grief – a deep feeling of sorrow. Grief is heavy enough on its own without you adding anything to it. Instead, think about your loved ones who are no longer here. How did they spend the holidays? Truly think about it. How would they have celebrated? Have you thought about it? Good. Now ask yourself, is this (crying, depressed, despondent, angry, cussing, snapping off, not eating, attitude…) how they’d want me to be? No. So, as ..read more

Are you grieving properly?

Last night, we continued our Bible Study Series, Weigh-In. The topic is grief because I’ve found that grief, when not managed properly, can become a weight. In John 16, Jesus was preparing the disciples for His death, but they missed it. Sometimes, our loved ones can be preparing us too, but we’ll miss the preparation being focused on losing the person. Are you grieving properly, especially during this holiday season? Go back and watch the study as I have 6 ways to help you grieve. Click the link to watch it on Facebook or YouTube. Always know, I’m praying for you. Pastor Kisha ..read more

Conform vs Transform
Lakisha Johnson

I shared this to my #DearSis Vlog, but I felt the need to share part of it here. Romans 12:2 tells us, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” ‭ Here’s the thing. We are in the world, which means we already look like the world. Yet, it doesn’t mean we have to talk, act, live, think, and believe like the world. Take the Transformers movie. They were not of this world, yet they had to conform to look like they were, to fit in. However, they couldn’t fight and win, in the ..read more
