Happy Memorial Day and Blessings to all you. I know it has been about a month since I have posted on my blog but things have been difficult and wonderful. I decided to be off my blog for a while; as I needed to handle it and become a stronger me.
“If a ruler’s anger rises against you, do not leave your post; calmness can lay great offenses to rest.” Ecclesiastes’s 10: 4
The enemy rose up against me in every way this couple of months and I do not even understand how I’m still standing here. My ministry and spiritual life was extremely attacked; only because of God am I still standing and continue to write in this blog. But after this month of trials; a bigger blessing that I could ever imagined came upon my life and our family. Now that the storm has passed I can see God’s hand move and see his hands guide every action and steps that I took. This month gave me a valuable lesson; where God has put you anyone that dares will not move you from it.
Isaiah 57:10
” You were wearied with the length of your way, but you did not say, “it is hopeless”; you found new life for your strength, and so you were not faint.”
A few blogs past I shared that we were still praying for my dad to rise up in the ministry and he was still move spiritually dead but during this whole month I have seen God work on my father and his spiritual life. I cannot express the immense joy that we have at this given moment as the head of the household is lifting up and we are seeing his growth and enthusiasm. God is so good; never in my thoughts I imagined the immense joy that I get every time I see my father having that desire to serve God willingly. This battle was given years of fasting and prayers and we are seeing God’s prophetic words come to fruition.
Last year God through my pastor gave me a prophetic word. I had been asking in prayer for a new car as the car I had was an oldie that my parents needed for their job. God in his mercy heard my petition and declared a word letting me know that my car was ready; but it would be given in his time. I continued praying and searching for cars; I had specifically ask him for a car that was semi new as I did not want a new car that would have me deep in debt and low in mileage and price. What I could not see and imagined was that God had the day prepared and the car that was going to be it. The car that God had for me was a really low mileage car with less than 17k miles and for a price of $12k and it’s a car from 2017. It is said that before the blessing you are passed through fire. Maybe I was being tested during this whole month and my two blessings were given because I did not fail; or just maybe it was God’s perfect timing.
My advice to you in this moment if you are being passed through fire is do not leave your post. If God has put you somewhere it’s because he will back you up in every single thing that you do. God is backing up my ministry and this blog and I believe that sooner rather than later I will be traveling around this world preaching and giving testimony of his glorious mercy and love and support he has had with me and from where he brought me out of.
P.s. I have missed you guys so much😞😞💕💕Come show some love😊🤗
Amen and amen!! I’ve been praying for my dad and a car too so that’s encouraging to read your testimonies! It reminds of Exodus 14:14 about God fighting your battles for you, and you only needing to be still. ❤️ I also feel the call to travel and speak as well as write so I am delighted to be on this journey with you. 🤗

Amen💜that’s what this is about that a testimony can give another person encouraging to wait on GOD. Because what he has promised he will come through it☺️And yes I can’t wait for that moment when we will be reading about our travels on our blogs💕💕💕

Our family has been weathering a storm, too. I have found praying through Psalm 107, and 139:5 to be helpful. When someone stays faithful to God in the midst of a challenge, that person gets to experience the unique rescue, shelter, and strength of God reserved for broken hearted. I would much rather weather a storm with God!
