Overcoming False Humility

Overcoming False Humility

“Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. 2 When you give to someone in need, don’t do as the hypocrites do—blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get. 3 But when you give to someone in need, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. 4 Give your gifts in private, and your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. – Matthew 6:1-4 NLT

This is a powerful statement, isn’t it, straight from the mouth of Jesus?

Prayers and Decrees for Healing of Pancreatic Cancer

Prayers and Decrees for Healing of Pancreatic Cancer

A friend was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and I felt led to write these decrees to pray over her. If she needs them, I know others do, so I thought I’d share.

Jesus told us that we – me and youthe church – could pray with authority in His name. Remember that as you declare these truths over your situation or that of a friend or family member.

Remember, Jesus tell us we could pray with authority in His name!

Below you will find a prayer I wrote, with decrees and declarations included, specifically targeted for pancreatic cancer. Speak them out multiple times/day if you need to. Actually, I recommend it.

Perhaps decreeing God’s Word is a new concept for you. Remember this… Jesus said that if you are a believer, He has given you “the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.” (Matthew 16:19)

May these decrees bring healing over pancreatic cancer and show you just how powerful our God is. Download the free pdf below and speak these words out multiple times/day.

Prayers and Decrees for Healing of Pancreatic Cancer

Jehovah Rapha, you are the God who heals. I thank you that you have created me for a purpose – a purpose bigger than I’ll ever fully know. Thank you that you call me daughter/son and have set a table for me in the presence of my enemies. (Psalm 23:5)

The enemy has come to steal, kill, and destroy me with pancreatic cancer, but you, Jesus, have come to give me life, and give it to me abundantly. (John 10:10)In the name of Jesus, I decree and declare that:

  • My pancreas releases the perfect amount of enzymes for digestion and that it produces the perfect amount of hormones to perfectly manage my blood sugar.
  • My pancreas absorbs nutrients perfectly, just as God intended it to.
  • My liver function and bilirubin count are perfect, just as God is perfect.

Prayers for Adrenal Fatigue

Prayers for Adrenal Fatigue

I was amazed after doing a search for how to pray for adrenal fatigue, that I didn’t find much. What I did find happened to be prayers to the universe begging for healing. That broke my heart because I know people are desperate enough when battling adrenal fatigue that they will often pray anything to feel better.

But isn’t there a better way? Didn’t Jesus tell us we could pray with authority in His name?

After my third exposure to black mold in 2015, my adrenals were shot. My thyroid was hanging on by a limb. And my liver, well.. it was so confused, in the words of Dolly Parton’s character, Truvy, in Steel Magnolias, “he didn’t know whether to scratch his watch or wind his butt.”

I’ll save you all the details, but let’s just say that it’s been a journey. God has done some miraculous healing in my body.

Over the last month I’ve been battling with some adrenal fatigue again. I’m still working on trying to figure out what the root cause is. I’m taking supplements and working on getting myself on a diet that will honor my body and help restore and heal my adrenal glands.

But.. there’s been something missing. I haven’t been decreeing the Word of God over myself like I should. I’m great at reminding others they need to, but how quickly I can forget to do it for myself.

So, I sat down to find some Scriptures and prayers I could pray over myself, but I only found meditation practices, prayer ideas, and prayers to the universe.

Instead of waiting for someone else to provide the prayers and decrees, I dug in and decided to create my own. But I know I’m not the only one battling adrenal fatigue, so I wanted to share with you, too.

Below you will find a prayer I wrote, with decrees and declarations included, specifically targeted for adrenal fatigue. You can even print it so you’ll have easy access to speak these out over yourself daily, even multiple times/day if necessary.

Perhaps decreeing God’s Word is a new concept for you. Remember this… Jesus said that if you are a believer, He has given you “the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.” (Matthew 16:19)

The keys represent authority. Jesus has given YOU authority, my friend, to tell the darkness to flee. He has given YOU authority to send the enemy back to the dry places where he belongs. Jesus has given YOU the authority to speak the Word of God and change the world around you, including your own personal world. Jesus wins!

May these decrees bring healing to your adrenal glands and show you just how powerful our God is.

Paris, Texas and the Power of Simple Obedience

Paris, Texas and the Power of Simple Obedience

Last month my friend Jenster asked me if I wanted to go on vacation. “Of course,” I said. She wanted to go to the beach, so I started looking around at some different options.

A couple weeks later she reached out and said, “I think the Lord is telling us to go to Paris, TX.” Um… okay? I learned a long time ago that if the Lord is telling Jennifer to do something, it’s better to listen.

She sent me a picture of the cabin she found and I didn’t need to see anything besides the rocking chair on the front porch. “Sounds like a plan to me.”

Words Matter. Choose Love.

Words Matter. Choose Love.

For every three people attacking you with their words, make sure you have one person who is speaking life to you.

If you have 21 people spewing hate at you, that sucks. BUT… that means you have 7 people who are for you, speaking words of love over you.

MAKE SURE YOU’RE LISTENING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE.

Words matter. Choose love.

But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison. Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it curses those who have been made in the image of God. And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! – James 3:5-11

Yes, Lord. Help me do better.

Why Forgiveness Does Not Always Mean Reconciliation

Why Forgiveness Does Not Always Mean Reconciliation

A few years ago I had a friend who one day was no longer my friend.

When I met her she was a prayer warrior. I loved to hear her pray and she was such an encourager.

But as time went on, there was this check in my gut that I didn’t pay attention to. That was actually Holy Spirit, but I confused it for indigestion. Bad idea. I let her see vulnerable parts of my life that not everyone got to see. I called her when I was struggling with some things. She prayed for me. She even drove down a few times to just have dinner.

I could never shake that feeling in my gut. BUT… I didn’t listen to it. I just kept moving forward, allowing her even more space in my life and ministry.
