INSPIRATIONAL NEWSLETTER

WEDNESDAY

AUGUST 19, 2026

We pray that this newsletter and its contents that we share will help you on your daily journey with Christ, causing you to grow in the ways of the Lord.

The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.

This is why we teach so that you can grow stronger in your faith until unity comes in the body of Christ. Take what you have learned and share it with others so that we can further the kingdom for Jesus Christ.

KINGDOM LIVING

Whose kingdom are you living in? If you are in the world’s kingdom, you must live as the world lives, but if you are living in the Kingdom of God, His rules are not the same.

The world’s kingdom says get all you can, but the Kingdom of God says give.

The world’s kingdom is motivated by self; but the Kingdom of God is motivated by the Spirit of God.

One kingdom lifts up self, and the other kingdom lifts up God. Matthew 7:13-14 tells us about these two choices: “13 Enter ye in at the strait [narrow] gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait [narrow] is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

What do you think of the most? It determines which kingdom you are serving. If you are not thinking on the things of God which are: truth, honesty, loveliness, virtue, praise, purity, a good report, then you are living in the world’s kingdom which brings destruction.

Yes, as Christians, we live in the world, but we are not of this world. We are seated now with Christ in heavenly places. [Ephesians 2:6]. Our lives belong to him. We must make the choice to go God’s way and not the way of the world. We learn God’s way by studying his word.

We must be kingdom minded and choose the narrow way. We must exalt our King, and lift HIM up, not ourselves. If all you think about is yourself, then you must transform your mind to be kingdom minded. In the Kingdom of God there is no lack, no sickness, no disharmony. Bring yourself into that kingdom now, and your life will change!

PROPHETIC WORDS AND EXHORTATIONS

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

8-19-2026

God has provided wisdom and knowledge through His Word. By studying the Psalms and Proverbs you can knowledge and wisdom to live a life that pleases God. Without knowing what pleases him you will not live victoriously. 2 Timothy 2:5 tells us to study so we can be approved by God. Don't look at this as something unseemly. Look at it as God's way of protecting you!

Wednesday Praise Break

“Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth! Worship the Lord with gladness. Come before Him, singing with joy. Acknowledge that the Lord is God! He made us, and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with thanksgiving; go into His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him and praise His name. For the Lord is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and His faithfulness continues to each generation.”

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Don’t ever allow this season of LOSS and HURT to DEFINE who YOU are in your life ASSIGNMENTS. Instead just try your best to let it REFINE you and ALIGN you...But just never let it CONFINE you. Now the best thing YOU can do is to KEEP on BELIEVING; While getting yourself ready to start your RECEIVING!! Just remember that you CAN always TRUST GOD enough to KNOW that He WILL bring you TO IT, THROUGH IT...And ALL the WAY to your long awaited COMEBACK CELEBRATION. Oh yes, your life’s DREAM and your ASSIGNMENT will still COME to YOU even AFTER that SETBACK you’ve just ENDURED. Now you may want to keep these encouraging words of the psalmist David close in your heart...”Weeping may last for the night, But joy will come in the morning.” (Psalms‬ ‭30:5‬b) So child of God don’t ever forget that God did NOT bring you this far to leave you; And today HE is saying these words to some of you who’re ready to receive them. “Yes indeed, it won’t be long now. Things are going to happen so fast that your head will swim; One thing coming on the heels of the other. You won’t be able to keep up. Everything will be happening at once and everywhere you look, blessings! Blessings like wine pouring off the mountains and hills. I’ll make everything right again.” (Amos‬ ‭9:13b‬ ‭MSG‬‬)

The Only Scars! HCC

When we get to Heaven,

Our bodies, they will change.

It will be so wonderful,

Wrinkles gone, not racked with pain.

A youthful glow of innocence,

Grey hair gone, and eyes can see.

Our scars will be no more now,

In this beautiful Eternity.

We will hold each other,

Remembering cherished friends.

We will smile and cry with joy,

To see our loved ones, once again.

But the only scars in Heaven,

Will be on the sweetest person there,

Jesus Christ our Savior, Lord of Lords,

As he holds us, his scars will be there.
