Welcome
Thank you for taking the time to visit this website. I truly hope and pray that you will find something here that will bless and encourage you in your daily living.
As you will already know, the world that we live in is changing at such a rapid pace, and finding positive information and an encouraging word is not as easy as some people would have you believe. I agree that there is so much information that is readily available - even by this medium - but we also know that we cannot always trust everything we hear or read. I would suggest and strongly encourage you to search the bible for conclusive and irrefutable proof of the things contained in this webspace. God's truth is the ultimate truth as His Word has stood the test of time and many, many generations before me can testify to the same.
In my time working with Churches, the Police, Governments, young people and many other statutory agencies, one thing has become evidently clear. It is that people are looking for real practical solutions to help them to deal with the very real issues surrounding their communities, their young people, the prevelant gun and drug culture which has risen to epidemic proportions in our society. I have good news today! There is an answer to these and all the situations and circumstances that life presents. However, the question is are we genuinely prepared to do whatever it takes to see real change take place?. For some it will mean a sharp U-turn from practices and deep-held beliefs, for others it will simply be a matter of dealing with their pride and coming to the conclusion that there is another way - the original WAY that was previously rejected.
Our purpose is simple and our objectives clear. We are here to educate, illuminate and to spiritually uplift you, and those with whom you will come into contact with everyday of your life. After all, wisdom is the prinicipal thing... (Proverbs 4:7 KJV)

Pause for Strength: Feb. 2009
This year will be a year of great proving for the Church, its individual constituents and our nation. In my spirit, I firmly believe that 2009 will present many opportunities which at first may seem like all our dreams and hopes have been realised, when in point of fact, it will be the testing of our character and moral fortitude. If there was ever an age when spiritual insight and discernment is required, it is right now.
Many will be deceived simply because they lack the ability and the strength of character to know when God has truly blessed and when the enemy of our soul is setting a trap. We are to be on our guard for even though there will be turmoil, God will be glorified and the body of Christ – the true remnant of believers - will be elevated into a dimension of revelation that is unparalleled and unprecedented in modern times.
If this be so, then we are being challenged by Heaven to 'walk in the Spirit' with determination and holy reverance - solely because it is not what we say that counts, rather more who you really are; the content of your character. Romans 12:1 declares 'I beseech you by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service'. There is no defeating or overcoming the vicissitudes of life unless we are sensitive to the heartbeat of Heaven. We must be directed and guided by the Spirit of God and surrender our life and loves at the foot of the Cross for His approval.
Our boroughs, neighbourhoods, towns, cities and nation cries out for a voice to stand up and declare that the Church knows who they are and who’s they are. We have been called to serve this generation with a fresh anointing which comes only from above. How can we complain about the laws past in our parliament and councils if we remain silent? How can we be without guilt if the true manifestation of the Sons of God is not revealed? It becomes evident that if we are to fulfil purpose and destiny, then we must awake from docile slumber to ascend into what God has prepared for us, and to be acutely aware of the devices of Hell which work, without rest, to take advantage of each and every one of us.
So in summary, let us prepare to triumph like never before, but in the midst of seizing territories and subduing enemies, let us ensure we spend even more time scrutinising our motives and cleansing the inner man.
Ephesians 3:14-19 (21st Century King James Version)
14For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15from whom the whole family in Heaven and earth is named,
16that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man;
17that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height,
19and to know the love of Christ, which surpasseth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.
Until next time,
