Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. – Philippians […]
You ARE Equipped
You are equipped, even when you don’t think you are. You are equipped to move forward in the FREEDOM AND STRENGTH that the Lord has given to you! Confusion is not made for you, nor will it deter you. You will walk in favor and in peace and with the breath of the Lord as […]
