GLORIOUS IMPACT: Biblical encouragement & edification

Encouragement, edification, and empowerment from a biblical perspective for true transformation.

  • The Pinching

    One addiction has been conquered and another rises to the service. When things begin to drop off – when you start dropping the baggage in your walk with Christ – what remains rises to the service. The pinching begins as God calls us to raise our standard to the way of life he has ordained…

  • GOD BLESS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    First and foremost, God bless and “Happy New Year!” God has been very busy with me; had to keep my eyes on Him. With all the things that were experienced last year, I have become even more rooted and grounded keeping my eyes on Him. There is a new level of peace that came with the…

  • God’s Grace

    I looked up grace and there were so many definitions. The focus of this grace though is the freely given, unmerited favor and love of God. It is defined as “the influence or spirit of God operating in humans to regenerate or strengthen them.” It is a virtue or excellence of divine origin. It is…

  • Avid

    Avid What are you avid about? What do you have enthusiasm for? What are you zealous for? Keen about and devoted to or dedicated to? The antonym is indifferent. Today I speak on faith. I am zealous about my faith. I am not indifferent to what pertains to eternal life. I am an avid reader…

  • Thoughts for Today_Saturday, 04.22.17

    There is such a sweetness in my spirit today for God’s faithfulness. I have become employed full-time and as I adjust to the time requirements for this, I have to adjust my writing time. I will be posting three times a week. My first priority is to God, of course. Then, attention to the job.…

  • Faceless-Alias

    Faceless-Alias |  Free-Flow Friday  |  The View from My Window This wasn’t her. Walking through the park looking at the faceless souls, aliases lost in the chaos of life. “Hi, how are you doing today?” The greeting was done in an effort to feel again. “Fine,” the stranger solemnly said. The stranger’s face never looked…

  • Jesus’ Sacrifice

      Jesus’ sacrifice was necessary so I could call on His name today! Ephesians 6:14-17 – “14) So stand firm and hold your ground, having tightened the wide band of truth (personal integrity, moral courage) around your waist and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (an upright heart), 15) and having strapped on your feet the gospel of peace in preparation [to face the enemy with firm-footed…

  • He’s Chasing Me

    He’s chasing me. The pursuit is relentless. Haven’t been able to rest for the energy to keep running. He’s been chasing me for years. Why won’t He stop? Relentless. What’s the word? Neverending. Where can I run to? Left? Right? Straight ahead? Closer and closer He gets. I cannot outrun Him. What can I do?…

  • Surrender and Immerse

    There is no way to walk in spiritual authority without surrendering. There is power in surrendering. You don’t have the weight of the world on your shoulders. Christ must be sought with your whole heart, mind, and soul. From there, you can share the Good News. Here comes immerse. Immerse yourself in the Word of…

  • The Spirit is Willing but The Flesh is Weak

    The Resurrection of Jesus is truly the reason the Spirit overcomes the flesh. Power over the flesh is definitely possible because all things are possible through God to him who believes.

  • Desire

    Desire: Longing, Craving  Desire is a longing or craving, as for something that brings satisfaction or enjoyment. What are your desires? This is such a strong word. It seems to delve deep into the soul for me. My desire is for the fullness of the Lord. This is the time of Lent. During this time,…

  • The Body of Christ

    ​It has been an interesting journey. I have been missing in action from posting because I have been spending time with God. The challenges I have faced have been through the God I serve. The realization that through these circumstances I have come closer to Him in a way that I otherwise would not have…

  • My Thoughts on Today_Wednesday_01-04-17

    The new year has arrived. I am stronger than I have ever been. I didn’t make any real New Year’s resolutions other than to love God and love myself. I asked God for revelation and He was faithful. I know that being committed to these two specific values, I will be able to show the…

  • Breakthrough Beyond the Trees

    Short and sweet but truth for you. Although the trees mostly cover the sky and you only see a glimpse of it, it is still there. So is God. Right now you may only have a glimpse of Him,  but He is there. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Even if you only…

  • The Process of Surrender

    While the following questions were answered by me from a devotional I did today, I wanted to share them with you. I am not looking for answers on the post,  of course. But thought as we continue on this journey, when we probe deep within ourselves about our relationship with Christ, we can move forward…
