Teach your children to pray every morning and night. They need to know about Jesus so they can live in the world with peace and know that God has a plan for their lives. You don’t want your family to miss eternity with Jesus.

Commit your family and business to the Lord. If you have raised your children to know the Lord and they are away from God, keep praying God’s Word over them. *Great scriptures: Malachi 2:6, Isaiah 49:25, Psalm 129:4 and Jeremiah 29:11 are a few. 

The spoken Word of God does not return void. God’s Word never fails. If you got born again late in life, pray for your family now. It’s not too late if you have breath in your lungs. These two simple prayers will change your life. 

*Pray and apply the blood of Jesus daily and ask Him for wisdom.

*Ask God to forgive you for any wrong thoughts, deeds, actions and words, and to remove anything that would hinder your relationship with Him.

You can live according to God’s Word which is linear and get off of the vicious cycle of life through learning how to apply God’s Word to your daily life. You don’t have to live stressed out, upset, and in chaos. Choose this day whom you will serve. We are either living according to God’s Word and His ways…or choosing to operate in the world’s system. 

Each human being has a destiny.

God has a plan and a purpose for your life. The believer’s purposes are to know God and to make Him known. To love one another (John 13:35), and to serve each other (Matthew 25:34-40). There is no higher calling, no occupation so satisfying. 

God desires us to have pure hearts so we can walk in His power. A pure heart has experienced brokenness and realizes their need for God, is soft and pliable to our heavenly Father’s touch, and seeks to know Him more on a daily basis. 

God desires relationship with us and a total commitment to His justice first and foremost. The basis is the righteousness of God Himself, and it is revealed in His law (which is Word). We are to love the law of God as it applies to all walks of life: home, business, politics, and the arts. 

God wants us to obey His Word because He says so. God wants us to act justly and to love mercy. This means we don’t have any desire to bring harm or destruction to anyone, but that they might be saved. Walking humbly with God means remaining in close fellowship with Him…consistently. Walking humbly means submitting to Him, doing what He says, simply because He says to do it. Walking humbly with God means being eternally grateful to Him giving continual thanks to Him for all His many benefits. 

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, and your neighbor as yourself. (Deuteronmy. 6:5; Lev. 19:18; Matt. 22:37, 39; Mark 12:30; Luke 10:27). Act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8). Use these responses to evaluate your walk with God. 

PRAYER:

“Father, I thank YOU for the blood of Jesus that is applied to my life that brings protection, provision, and purpose. I ask You to lead my path, give me YOUR wisdom, and bring divine connections my way. Lead me according to Your Word. Amen, let it be so.” 

At night, “Father, I ask You to forgive me for any wrong thoughts, deeds, actions, and words…and remove anything that would hinder my relationship with You. In Jesus’ Name.”

We can have peace in the midst of life…and through all the storms that come with it. Jesus is Peace. He is with us in every situation. We can have peace when we turn to Jesus in everything. Trust Him today. Teach your family to pray! God loves us so much He sent His Only Son that we might have eternal life with Him. We have everything we have need of through the Blood of the Lamb —Jesus Christ!

Oh how He loves you and me!

You can sow, but only God can grow. You will never discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore…”Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus” (Matthew 14:29 NASB) Without taking a risk, you will never know all God created you to be and never realize your God-given potential. #Leavealegacy #YourGiftWillMakeRoomForYou #AbundantLife #SpiritualMaturity #IdentifyYourGift #BullDogFaith

If I had not believed God, my husband would not be alive today. God raised him from death, healed him from two strokes, and two open-heart surgeries. Yes, and twenty-five days in Mercy hospital…with a stop sign at the street corner that was strategically placed by God that said:  STOP WORRYING.  Someone had gone before us and had put a sticker that said “worrying” underneath the word STOP. 

God goes to extreme measures to encourage us. Trust Him today. If I had not stepped out and asked questions, stated what God told me to say, and had the boldness to stand up—I would have been a widow.

Dare to step out and identify your gift, dream big dreams, connect with people of purpose, live large, empower people to do the same, promote other people, and live the abundant life through caring about people and obeying God. Choose to leave a legacy of knowing God and making Him known in every area of your life. 

God still raises the dead. He parted the Red Sea and He will part whatever Red Sea is facing you today. Dare to believe.

He loves you!

SHIFT HAPPENS…anthology (Sold at events)

For speaking engagements and ministry…contact Dr. (Rev.) Deborah Starczewski at www.starministriesinc.com

Our society is suffering from a progressive breakdown of interpersonal relationships. People are more connected than ever…and less connected in real relationships. Texting has taken over talking. Relationships have diminished and people actually spend less quality time with family and friends. People are bashing authority, taking matters into their own hands, attempting to kill people because they don’t like them, to all sorts of manipulation and evil. What on earth has happened in this nation? How did the breakdown start? What can we do to bring about change?

It’s imperative to take time to get away to spend with family and friends, or you will get caught in the crossfire of enemy tactics. Satan is afraid of what you can become in Christ…so he seeks to destroy any of us at a young age. Be encouraged….people who have been the lowest often end up the highest. The Scriptures tells us, “He who humbles himself will be exalted” (Luke 18:14).

There is always something you don’t know in any situation; so be careful not to assume and judge. Satan will try to get you to accuse, assume, attack, belittle, lie, and slander. He will paint a rosy picture to get you off course and it never ends well. Remember Judas. Sowing and reaping is a principle that works in the good and the bad.

David’s own father and brothers assumed he wasn’t in the lineup for God’s choice…but wow….were they wrong. The very one they thought wasn’t good enough and not even called in for the lineup, was God’s choice. See how far off assumption can get a person, and an entire family falling for their own opinions? (See 1 Samuel 16)

Satan comes to distract, deter, damage, and create doubt and duress in the lives of every believer so that we are derailed by evil tactics. Lack of respect, lack of respect for authority, and moral decay has swept through the nation. It is obvious what is happening. Satan is out to steal, kill, and destroy. 

The Bible says that we are hid in Christ (as born-again followers of Christ) and the devil cannot find us. He roars like a lion trying to get us to come out and align with him through negative confession, accusation, slander, and all sorts of evil. 

Satan comes to divide your mind against God. He will try to divide your marriage, family, friends, cities, churches, and nations. A house divided will not stand. A nation divided will not stand. When people lose their moral compass, disaster is imminent. 

The enemy wants to destroy from within. Keep your heart pure. Purity is prerequisite for power. Courage is prerequisite for impact and legacy 

Choose this day WHO you will serve —God or Satan. Determine in your heart to be the change in every situation. Determine to confess the Word of God over any and every circumstance, regardless of how it appears. Stay in alignment with God’s Word which is His will. Build your house upon the ROCK…Jesus Christ…a sure foundation. We will never improve on God’s “ancient path.” (Stand at the crossing, and consider the ancient path, that leads to Me. Walk on this path and you will find rest for your souls….See Jeremiah 6:16). 

Jesus said that whoever heard His words and obeyed Him, would be like a wise man who built his house on a rock. (See Matthew 7:24-27) 

“The LORD is my rock and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust.” (Psalm 18:2) 

God wants us to build securely on the Eternal Rock—the Word of God. Jesus is our ROCK..He is the firm foundation that we can build our lives upon. Don’t you dare budge off of God’s Word! Stand strong, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord. Instead of being divided, be determined to obey God! Believe Him, and trust Him! He is always faithful….

God loves you! 

HIS love and mine,

DEBORAH
