"Patience in Suffering" James 5:7-12

This morning I sat here with God trying to figure out what it was he wanted me to deliver this morning and he dropped a big one in my lap. I was lead to James 5:7-12, I have to admit that this Word was definitely for me.The title of this message is called:

"Patience in Suffering"

As you read James 5:7-12, you will understand it very well.

This week have been stressful for me, however I still do God's work with a smile and enjoyment, because I know at the end of the day My God will provide for me Everything I need...all I have to do is have Patience. I know that some of you have some issues right in your face that you are waiting on God to step in and remove, I say to you, keep staring that issue in the face and let it know that God is on the way! God is Never late and he's always on time, your issue just dropped in early. Keep your Faith and your Mind strong so whenever the devil tries to attend your show tell him that all tickets have been sold out for Christ, and there is no room for him.
LOL As I sit here and type all of this I am ministering to myself. I am not above anyone, I have real life struggles just like we all do, and that's the beauty of life. When these issues come up you have to ask yourself will you attend the show that is Sold Out for Christ where it is pack and people are standing in the line for hours just to attend the show? Or will you show up for the show of the devil where he has invited you to be a special guest to sit in the VIP section? The choice is yours... I have enough Faith and Trust in My God that I will have patience in suffering. I love you all and God Bless!

"You can't grow crop on dry land"

Jeremiah 17: 5-8 verse.

"You can't grow crop on dry land"

A lot of people ask the question: Why are you so optimistic about every situation? Where does your Faith comes from? As you read verses 5-6 it gives you a few good reason to have faith! I will not be that bush in the wastelands so therefore I have complete Faith and Trust in God! However, verses 7 & 8 is the key to it all! After reading this passage ask yourself... Are you satisfied with being unfruitful, or do you, like a well-watered tress, have strength for the time of crisis and even some to share as you bare fruit for the Lord?

Please get your exercise on by reading this message! I promise you some of you will think twice.
New Year ! New You! Lets start 2009 with a new Frame of Mind! Love you all and take care!

"Lets Get Drunk"

"Lets Get Drunk"
OK! Calm down...I have not lost my mind LOL. I just finished reading Acts chapter 2 and it have me so excited right now! Acts 2 was the story of "A Drunk Church" ... I don't know about you but when I enter the House of the Lord I'm trying to get Drunk off the Word myself! I want to be so full of God's presence that my knees buckle, my speech slur, and so full of the Spirit that I get lost in a praise. That's just me... I don't know about you all!

However, I ask all of you to read Acts 2: 1- 47. There are some key verses that are just amazing in this chapter like verses 34-35, and verses 42-47.
Acts 2:42-47 reminds me of True Divas in so many ways! We all are devoted people of Christ in our own way, we come together and pray, Each of us help those in need, many of us meet here on a daily bases, we give thanks and praise for favor for each of us, and I know that we touch and help save a many of lives here! Just yesterday I received a text message from a member saying She rededicated her life to Christ yesterday and I began to thank God and Congratulate her! God is amazing! He is forgiving! He is loving! I'll get drunk off His Spirit any day of the week not just Sunday, Wednesday, or Saturday! Now get off this computer, grad your Bible and go get Drunk! (off the Word)!!!

"Sleeping On the Job"

I just want to start by thanking each of you for your prayers and Holiday Wishes while my family and I traveled to visit our family!

"Sleeping On the Job"

This morning I was thumbing through the Bible and I came across Luke 22: 39-46! This passage talked about Praying that we will not fall to temptation. Many of us always fall asleep and wake up startled when we wake up with temptation standing in our face, then we begin to pray. Why fall asleep on the job? Pray faithfully in advance so when temptation comes around you have enough strength and confidence to not entertain it.
Please read the scriptures that I have provided for you today. Get your spiritual exercise on while feeding your soul with the Word of God! I love you all and take care!

John 13:7 December 26,2008

This morning message will be short due to me packing my things and getting ready to travel back home today! However, last night I wanted to get this message done and get it out the way so I can just pack and travel but God did not allow anything to come through for me and I did not want to do this message without him being involved. As I slept last night He kept saying to me (John 14:6) I am the way, the truth , and the light! As I got up this morning to read the scripture for myself another verse popped out for me and I knew that was what he set me up to see. It was John 13:7 and it stated Jesus replied, " You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand." So take that scripture alone and apply it to whatever situation you are going through God always have a plan for us, just know and understand that your plan isn't always his plan! I love you all. Take care and God Bless!

Luke 16:1-18 Dec 24, 2008

Good Morning Everyone! I just want to start by say thank you to Armetria Charles ( True Divas President) for stepping in and doing such a wonderful job with the good morning Divas message yesterday!

Last night before I went to bed the Lord gave me such a wonderful message and it was still on my mind this morning so I just had to share it with you all! The message came from Luke 16:1-18 verse. It was about "Jesus Tells the Parable of the Shrewd Manager." I have to say make sure you read verses 10-13 they are the ones that will put many into their place. These verses all boils down to Trust and your blessings!
Treat others and their property as you would your own. If you can't be trusted with someone else property why would God bless you with your own? Don't try to get over on those who extend their hand to help you, because you will always attract those types of people that will do the same to you. Read the message for yourself and figure out are you the Employer of the shrewd manager or are you the Shrewd Manger? It only takes a True Person of God to answer that question honestly! If you are The Employer do just what the guy did in this message(read stricture to find out). If you are the shrewd manager no matter what you attempt to succeed at you will always have hardship, struggles, and people that will do unto you as you have done unto others! I love you all! Take care and God Bless!

Your True Diva,

Good Morning Divas by Armetria Charles Dec. 23, 2008

Good Morning Divas,
As you may know Angela is out of town and does not have internet access at this time. So I was asked to continue her morning ritual of Good Morning Divas. With honor, I will proceed.

I am realizing success has it's hazards... We begin to trust in ourselves- our own abilities, position of influence, and resources, rather than God's. This has happened again and again. I read where it happened to Uzziah, a king of Judah who enjoyed great success and was exalted to a position of prominence. We read, But when he became strong, his heart was so proud that he acted corruptly, and he was unfaithful to the Lord his God" (2Cronicles 26:16). As a result Divas, God had to discipline the king. He lived out his days as a leper.
It happened to King Nebuchadnezzar, ruler of Babylonian Empire, who achieved great military success and was privileged to rebuild and beautify the lovely city of Babylon. Yet he too succumbed to pride. He begin to praise himself for building such a lavish, royal residence, leaving God out of the equation. Read (Daniel 4:30). God judged Nebuchadnezzar! )see scripture reference to see what happened!)
Now I read about John the Baptist and he knew how to cope with success. He recognized it came from God (John3:27). He didn't allow it to go to his head. The Lord was able to entrust to John a gracious measure of success in life because He knew that John would use it to glorify him.
How are you handling your success?
Let's take the road of John the Baptist and remember all that we have comes from God's bank account of His riches & glory!

Have a victorious day,

Your True Diva President,
Armetria Charles

Mark 10:1-16

I hope you all are having a wonderful Sunday morning! I was trying to get some much needed sleep last night this one book kept jumping around in my head! It was the book of Mark. We I finally got up God said Mark Chapter 10. I immediately grabbed my bible and as soon as I opened it he gave me two sets of scriptures, one was on divorce and the others were about blessing children!
Mark 10: 1-12 ( When you read this keep in mind Truth is Truth but realized that anything can be Forgiven).
Mark 10:13-16
is something dear to me. It speaks of the blessing of children. I have a personal attachment to this story. I always said I would not baptize my daughter without her understanding what it is about. I always want her to make that decision and hold it dear to her heart! My daughter came to me at the age of 7 and told me "Mama I'm ready." I replied..."to do what baby?" She said "to be baptized" We sat down and had a talk and she fully understood it and I was not going to stand in her way! She walked up to the Pastor herself and said Pastor I want you to baptize me and he asked her do you understand what this mean? My daughter looked at him and said of course me , my mama, and God already had this discussion ! LOL So please read these scriptures and get from it whatever you need. I love you all and take care!

Be on your guard

I have to say thank you all for such a beautiful week! You all have in my hearts and prayers. Stay connected to God and stay Faithful to the Word! Also know that with doing God's work the devil will always be lurking around trying to pull you off track, so I know that this is why God gave me this scripture this morning:

Matthew 10:17-20 (NIV)

17)"Be on your guard against men; they will hand you over to the local councils and flog you in their synagogues.
18) On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.
19) But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say,
20) for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

Another passage God gave me was Isaiah 40 so please take the time and read that.
Take the time to bless someone's life today if you haven't done so this week. Buy a gift today like a small bag of personal hygiene items, or an old jacket that you may not wear anymore that is in good shape and just give it to a homeless person you pass today and let them know that God still Loves them and to enjoy their Holiday. Get a cheap hotel room and house a homeless person for at least one night, they deserves to know that someone still loves them. Just take heed to this message and do whats on you are lead to do. I love you all! Have a Happy and safe Holidays!

Just Trust God!!!

Good morning everyone. I am so blessed to receive this word this morning. The Lord gave me this scripture last night while I was doing research, then he gave it to me again this morning so I am certain this message was meant for you all as well as myself. The scripture reads: Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
5) Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
6) in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

OK lets break this down: verse 5 Basically means stop making decisions on your own! Many of us become faced to make tough decisions and we don't trust anyone but ourselves to make the right decision,We even fail to kneel and include God in these decisions. Include God in your decisions and trust what he gives you. It might not be what you want it to be, however, God knows whats best!
Verse 6 broken down: Be willing to listen and be corrected by God's Word, Take the decisions you make to Him in prayer, use your Bible as your guide and the follow God's lead and that is how he will make our path straight.

Just think of it like this when you are on your job working and a major decision needs to be made concerning the company are you going to consult with your supervisor/boss or are you going to make that decision on your own?

Meaning you life is not yours it is the Lords! How are you going to make decisions without consulting with you Father first? Did he give you that authority to run his business and making decisions without talking to him about it first...I don't think so. Just Trust God and follow his lead!

This is one of the keys to being a successful person in God's eye and being successful here on earth as well! Try it and see how fruitful your crop will be. I love you all...Be Blessed! If you need me call me, I'm here.

Stop Feeding Negative Thoughts and Have Faith!

This morning God gave to me Matthew 9: 2-4, and I am so happy because I have found that a few people this week have lost all faith in our God! Some have begin to question his word and have many doubts. So this message is for those who need that reminder on how Great God really is!

Matthew 9:2 - 4 (NIV)

2)Some men brought to him a paralytic, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven."
3)At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, "This fellow is blaspheming!"
4)Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, "Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?

ok lets get into these scriptures... verse 2 said he saw the FAITH in the men that carried the paralytic and said your sins are forgiven! Just that simple there were no task, begging, or a trial just Faith! OK verse 3 people thought that Jesus was a fake, they had their doubts just like some of us worry too much and have no Faith when times get had, health starts to fail, or business gets slow! So God asked in verse 3 "Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts?" Jesus and I are on the same page here because I wonder about that as well. I wonder why we have so many Christians that doubt God's word? Why do they claim being broke, failing health, pain, recession, and so many negative things? Stop entertaining those evil thoughts or issues. It only have as much powers a you put into it. I ask that you dig into the Word of God to re strengthen your Faith. Don't Just rely on these messages to build you up, You need to help us rebuild you as well!

"Watch Your Mouth"

Every word you Has immense power, because it is a thought in action. There is an invincible power in every word you speak! You are a human being filled with unlimited possibilities, an the words you speak can either build a jail around you where you see only limitations, or they can set you free to live your life without any limits. Listen to the words that you speak and you will find every limitation you have ever experienced revealed to you. Change your words and you will change you life!
The Secret~

If you are sick or ill start expressing how "by His stripes you are healed!" If you are financially challenged, claim and speak out " I am blessed beyond measure, I live an abundant life."
The word of God states "call those things that are not as if they already are! Speak Life, not Deaf!!!!!

Have a beautiful day, full of bountiful blessings!

Truly,

1 John 4:1 (NIV) Test the Spirits

This morning God gave me the following scripture and it reminded me of something that I wrote last week but from a different scripture so please take heed! Today's word come from 1 John 4 and this is what it read:
1 John 4:1 (NIV)
Test the Spirits
1)Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Again this has to be another waring for us. The Lord has given me the same story in two different scriptures in the past week. So please be wise. The devil is on the lookout to bring you depression, jealousy, anger, guilt, lust, and past habits or issues. So please be careful who you allow in your circle, every nice person isn't a God fearing person. Every beautiful woman isn't a woman of God, every handsome man isn't a man of God, and every spirit isn't a God filled spirit. I love you all, take care, and God Bless!

Just Be You!

Today is Friday and I must say that this week has passed with speed. I just simply want to encourage you to be who you are, stand for what you believe in, respect others as well as yourself, and most of all don't allow anyone or anything to be your stumbling block. Be steadfast in Christ allow him to use you freely. Many people may not like you, despise you, or even envy you, but as long as you have done what God has put on your heart to do then so be it. We as men and women of God need to stop taking things lightly and bending the rules of the Ten Commandments, no sin is greater than the next, they are all equal in God's eye. He gave us ten rules to follow, however, we only highlight the ones that the law summit as a felony. We are all guilty of things but its up to us to start today and fix them. Personal Development is hard, however, how hard can it be when your Eternal Life depends on it! I love you all!

Proverbs 23

Today's the Lord blessed me with the Word from Proverbs 23:1-35. I could not point out one thing to speak on because all of it has great meaning. I advise that each of you read this message today or look it up on BibleGateway.com to view it. The message is about wanting what others have! I've list a few verses but you must read the rest on your own. Take head and be blessed.

New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

Proverbs 23

1) When you sit down to eat with a ruler,
look carefully at what's in front of you.
2) Put a knife to your throat
if you like to eat too much.
3) Don't long for his fancy food.
It can fool you.
4 Don't wear yourself out to get rich.
Be wise enough to say no.
5) When you take even a quick look at riches, they are gone.
They grow wings and fly away into the sky like an eagle.
6) Don't eat the food of anyone who won't share it.
Don't long for his fancy food.
7) He is the kind of person
who is always thinking about how much it costs.
"Eat and drink," he says to you.
But he doesn't mean it.
8) You will throw up what little you have eaten.
You will have wasted your words of praise.

I was not given any instructions to explain any of this. God says it will be understood, for those who it is far. I love you all, Have a Beautiful day!

The Valley of Dry Bones

Ezekiel 37: 1 - 14
The Valley of Dry Bones

I read this passage this morning and it reminded me of how powerful Our God is. Many of us have been walking Dry Bones, souls lost and we just roamed the earth trapped in its sin. God looked upon us and decided to speak Life into us and give us that chance to live again!

Verses 5&6 reads:

5) This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath [a] enter you, and you will come to life.
6) I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

That's why I Live, Laugh, and Love! God awaken my spirit from the dead and now I vow to walk around with a praise on the inside and out! My life is much more valuable than any cheap sin of this world! I will not let one person tear down my spirit and anything God has given me. God has given you a New Life, cherish it and rejoice that you too have be raised from the dead. Continue to live full of God's Spirit, be true, and be sincere. Pray for those who are still dead in their spirit, keep speaking the Word of Life into them. You may be the one that God uses to raise their spirit from the dead!
Also people please be careful how you treat people, because you never know when you may need their help. However, be careful how you treat the ones who mistreat you because you never know when God is going to send you to help them! I love you all and take care!

Your True Diva,

Angela Showers

Please take the time to read the passage today Ezekiel 37:1-14!

Ezekiel 37

The Valley of Dry Bones

1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?"
I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know."

4 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath ^[a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

9 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.' " 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.

11 Then he said to me: "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.' 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: O my people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the LORD have spoken, and I have done it, declares the LORD.' "

1 Timothy 3 1-7 (NIV)

I have been struggling with a person in my spirit! I've had warnings in dreams, and I've also tried to ignore the feeling of negative vibes. As I begin to gain sight of the issue by God revealing thing to me I begin to handle the issue. As my confirmation of everything I was feeling was in this text.

1 Timothy 3 1-7 (NIV)
1) Here is a trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being an overseer,[a] he desires a noble task.
2) Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
3) not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.
4) He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect.
5)(If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God's church?)
6)He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.
7) He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil's trap.

With that being said be careful who you allow in your circle! You may have a wolf in sheep's clothing that has camouflaged themselves as a christian or a friend. The devil will attempt to duplicate something or someone to gain your acceptance and once he is invited in and accepted his true colors will show! So beware of the devils carbon copy of God's work, do not be fooled.

If you are going to do God's work be pure and follow the guidelines above! Don't fake it to you make it, just be honest and let God continue to work with you. Don't lead people when you are not fit to lead! This applies to LIFE not just doing God's work. Stop trying to be seen for something you are NOT! You may have many fooled, however, If you leave this world today God is the one you have to answer to. Why feel the need to please the world when you are not pleasing to God?

3 John 1:4-8 (NIV)

I have received a word today from the Lord and it have me so excited! It was just confirmation for me and may be for some of you also! It was from:

3 John 1:4-8 (NIV)

4) I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are living by the truth.
5) Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the believers. You are faithful even though they are strangers to you.
6) They have told the church about your love. Please help them by sending them on their way in a manner that honors God.
7) They started on their journey to serve Jesus Christ. They didn't receive any help from those who aren't believers.

That word confirmed that everything I have been doing, my Father is proud! I know this word was ment for some of you who had doubt or even wondered if what you do was your purpose! God brought this message at the right moment for many of us. However, pay close attention to verse 7!
It read:
7) They started on their journey to serve Jesus Christ. They didn't receive any help from those who aren't believers.
That means only recruit members on your team (business partners, friends, associates etc...) who are believers! If they are not within the white light of Christ say thank you, but no thanks! That non believer can tear down everything you have built! The devil will do what he can or send someone to tear you down spiritually, so all help is not good help and All money isn't good money! Why have 10 best friends when only 1 of them is a believer? That's why when we grow closer to God some of our friends disappear because he wants us to be surrounded with people who are believers to
help us stay on our path. Take heed to the Word today! I love you all and God Bless.

We are at the end of our week and the question for today is "What have you done
to bless someone's life this week?"
We all love to be blessed and receive blessings, however, many of us struggle to
be a blessing for someone else! I'm not here to sugar coat anything or to hurt
anyone's feelings but I'm just keeping it real!

Many complain but never do anything to fix the issue, many just sit and watch
things happen and don't say a word, and then you have those that are unconcern
with changing things but wants to be the one to spread the gossip.
Life is not about being blessed its about being a blessing to someone else!
Despite of what you are going through you should at least be able to share the
Word with someone, you should be able to take the time and encourage that sister
or brother that just may be in a worst situation that you are in.
As said before it is better to give than to receive. Give someone 5 minutes of
your time, give someone encouragement, give them hope, and give them the word of
God. Giving isn't always financial!
Its not too late to bless someone's life this week you have the rest of today
and tomorrow, but remember Tomorrow is not promised. I love you all and take
care.

Your True Diva,
Angela Showers

True Divas Inspiration for The Day:

There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen,

choice. You can decide which type of person you want to be. I have always chosen
to be in the first group.

Blessings on this Thursday morning! I hope everyone is having a prosperous week
thus far. For those who have had challenges this week, stand strong and face
them! Never back down or show your weakness. Never shy away or bow down due to
fear of failure. Fight for your dreams and goals as you did on election day when
you waited an hour or more to cast your vote! Fight back as you did when you saw
some or heard of someone mistreating your child, fight back like you did when
someone tried to lie on you or destroy your name out of jealousy. Fight Back!
Fight Back! Fight Back! Only you have the will power to make your dreams and
goals come to past. God puts the gift in you its up to you to bring it out! Stop
depending on someone else to give you that BIG BREAK and TAKE IT! This is our
season, this is our time, so make use of it. I love you all. Stay motivated and
deep in Prayer.

Followering God's Command!

This have been an extremely busy, productive, and Spiritual week for me. I have been constantly on a mission with God, while working with my clients at my office, working with a hockey team, my beautiful supporting family, my 5 websites, my 3 myspace pages, 1 facebook page, and working with you all whenever you call me,text, or email.
You can read over this list and see I don't have time for myself at times. I always up by 6 am and usually down by 12am. Many of you don't understand that 98% of the thing I do is volunteer. I am not rich, however, I am rich in God's favor!
Many ask why do I do all of the things I do is it for success? The answer is no. I just move off God's command and I have the Faith that he will provide! I've help so many people that when I need help there is no one to turn to but God! However I am a witness that when God pays off he pay off in big ways! I've had so many opportunities thrown at me about this site, my career in massage therapy, other business opportunities, and several invites to conferences, interviews, and events. All off of following God's command and trusting his word.
I wrote all this to say do what you feel lead to do, no matter what others may think. God pays off greater than any major company will ever pay you. Never be so selfish that you are the first one who's looking to benefit from anything you do. Always appreciate the ones who offer help or they are willing to help just to see you succeed. Trust me I don't do this for me (however it has been a great blessing upon my life) I do this for that many of you that needed that sisterhood, that spiritual place to meet genuine God fearing people. Keep walking in Faith and believing in God! As always if you need me I am here! I love you all and remember you have less than 24 hrs. to bless someone if you haven't done so in this week already!

John 16:33

This morning the Lord gave me Scripture John 16:33 it read:

John 16:33 (New International Reader's Version)

33 "I have told you these things, so that you can have peace because of me. In this world you will have trouble. But cheer up! I have won the battle over the world."

Do you understand this text clearly people? Everything God has told you it was for you to have peace, in order for you to have peace, you have to have trust in Him. In order to Trust Him you have to have Faith in Him and His Word! Ok people ride with me now! Then he goes on to say," In this world you will have trouble." OK that lets you know right then it is not going to be easy, everyday is not going to be sunny days with chirping birds. But if you go back and read the first part of the text your mind should not be cluttered with doubt nor worry because you trust and have Faith in His Word. With that being said, he then announces... But cheer up! I have won the battle over the world." Now how can you not be rejoicing in God's victory. He's letting you know that no matter what trouble comes your way, you may feel the heat but he has already put out the fire!

All that crying and faithfulless worrying, thoughtless doing, and petty thinking is all a WASTE of TIME. Have some Faith! God has never let any of us down! He has always provided for us even when we didn't deserve it. This battle is not yours, Its the Lords, and he has already stated He has already won the battles of this world! Now stop looking at the tip of your nose and look out into the far. Are you going to stand there with your eyes crossed or you are going to pick up your feet and go see whats ahead? I love you all! If you need me call me. If you don't have my number just ask or send me yours. Just know that I will keep it 100% real, if you can't handle the truth just keep reading these messages lol and I'll keep you in my prayers.
Keep your head up and keep moving forward.

"The Devil is on the Prowl"

I come to you this morning with the title of "The Devil is on the Prowl"

This morning God gave me the Scriptures of Ephesians 4:17-31., and after I read it a voice said the devil is on the prowl! Therefore, I am to warn you, before you fall week to any temptations from your past. Stay focused and remain on your path! Drown yourself in God's word, pray every moment you get a chance to because the devil is after your glory. The devil doesn't like to see anyone rebuild themselves, refresh their spirit, nor rejuvenate their minds with God's words or positive thinking! The devil get to us buy using whatever he can to get to us like our families, our finances, our jobs, our joy, our health , our spirits, our minds, our church, our home, our bills, our cars, our country, the lowest one of all the devil pulls out the card of the past! He bring forth temptations to those who may have had issues with alcohol, prescription drugs, illegal drugs, depression, lust, adultery, low self-esteem, greediness, selfishness and etc... I pray that you stay strong and keep on your path. Continue to be a member of God's army! Let the devil know that every card he pulls from his hand that you have a better hand and that is the Hand of God placed upon your life! Please read Ephesians 4:17-31 today as it will give you the encouragement to move forward and Not look back. Every time you try to drive forward while looking back you notice that the wheel of your vehicle begin to yield off track! Stay focused on whats ahead and leave your past behind. I love you all!

When God Speak...Close Your Mouth and Listen!

I sat here this morning waiting to here from God an he Immediately gave me:
John 3:16 (King James Version)

16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

I began to shed tears and thank him because a man has such love for us all the he would be so unselfish. Then God said go to:

Peter 3: 3-4.
New International Version (NIV)

3)Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4)Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.

I just say back and smiled and remembered just October of last year(2007) the Lord came to me and said cut your hair free from all chemicals. I'm thinking "Lord I'm a sister this nappy dugout is not going to be cute!" However, I obeyed him and it felt like I was given a new life. I was such a superficial person that my looks were everything. The Lord gave me vision, wisdom, and strength. He open up my senses, my sight, my spiritual gifts, my frame of mind, and gave me a new thought process, all by cutting off my hair. I been a all natural sister since then growing locks but not by my choice either. I thought they were cute on others but not for me! I've always feared how others saw my outward appearance when God was only trying to teach me how Beautiful I was inside. I got a chance to see how pure my heart was. I began to see everything he had stored inside me. He allowed others to look within my spirit and prophesied to me, multiple people at different times with the same story! As many parts of the Bible I have read, I never read Peter 3:3-4! God is an awesome God!

I hope this message as touched you as it has me today! He really gave me a word for myself and I am proud to share it with you all! I love you and Take Care.

Have you earnd This key to Heaven?

We've all just celebrated Thanksgiving with our family members either in person,web cam, or by phone. One thing that bothers me is that we still treat some strangers better than our family (that includes cousins, uncles,aunts, in-laws, etc...). How could we dare go out of our way to please a stranger when we can't help our own family? Whatever it is that hinders you from forgiving that person does nothing but block your blessings. Thing happen, and I'm sure you have done some things in your life that is hard for people to forgive you also. You need to Go and Let Go!
Life is too short to be carrying around baggage from early childhood, unpaid debts, adultery, stolen property, or destruction of character. Its time to grow up and forgive, how can you have complete spiritual growth if you hold such bitterness and animosity in your heart for someone. Loving millions and helping billions doesn't mean anything when you hold such bitterness in your heart for one of God creations.
Look over your past and look at all the sinful things we have done in our past yet God still loves us, He still forgives us, and He still provide for us! We all say we want to be Christ like but can't even start by letting go of the dark moments. Forgiveness is one of your keys to Heaven! Have you earned yours? I love you all and may God continue to bless, reveal, repair, and rejuvenate your mind, heart, and soul!

There Are Five Kinds Of People Who Do Not Belong In Your Life

There Are Five Kinds Of People Who Do Not Belong In Your Life

1. People Who Hinder Your Pursuit Of Jesus.
Any person in your life who hinders or discourages your pursuit of knowing God has disqualified himself from a relationship with you. I am speaking here of an “inner-circle” relationship – those we admire and reach out to for counsel.

2. People Who Feed Your Doubts, Not Your Faith.
Doubt is contagious. It is like a spiritual cancer that starts small until it consumes every area of your life and thinking. It aborts any miracle of God’s intervention in your life. Hebrews 11:6 says, “But without faith it is impossible to please Him…”
We need to surround ourselves with people who encourage our faith. We do not need people in our lives who feed our doubts and hinder us from standing on God’s promises.

3. People Who Are Always Negative.
Dale Galloway said, “If we put negative thoughts in our minds, we will become victimized by our own negative thinking. A positive person does not refuse to ignore the negative, but he refuses to dwell on it.”
Thoughts and words create an atmosphere. Negative words are like arrows shot into the heart. According to Scripture, “life and death are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21).

4. People Who Belittle The Holy Spirit’s Assignment For Your Life.
You were born with talents and potential given to you by the Holy Spirit. Anyone who belittles your calling or makes fun of what God is doing through you do not belong in your “inner-circle”. Every relationship and conversation is either moving you closer to Jesus or pulling you away.

5. People Whose Only Goal In Life Is Survival.
In the Garden of Eden, before Adam and Eve sinned, God commanded and expected increase to follow His blessing. “God blessed them and said unto them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it’” (Genesis 1:28a NIV). Notice that the command to increase became man’s responsibility once he was blessed by God. It is easy to become focused on our own needs and pretend the rest of the world does not exist.

God is a God of increase. He expects increase from our lives. We need to surround ourselves with those people who have fruitful lives! Don’t settle for average.

If you want to have a saved soul, but a wasted life then associate with the wrong people and you will share their wasted future!

However, if you are ready to make a difference on the earth, then live and model the Christianity Jesus commanded and taught. . . and the rewards of a productive life will be yours and those you love will reap the blessing!

What have you done?

The weekend is here and tomorrow a new week will arrive. Ask your self "Have I done my best to please God?" "Have I did anything to improve my life this week?" Have I taken the time to bless someone other than myself and my family this week?" If you have answered no to any of these questions you have less than 24 hrs to do so. Don't do it because I said so, do it because your heart tells you so. I know times are tough but when you sacrifice to sow a seed to someone else it always comes back 10x's fold. Step up and make a difference, do something positive!

People will not remember you by what you didn't do, however, they will always remember you by what you did do no matter if its good or bad!
Everyone is waiting for Change! Why wait to follow when you have the ability to lead? I love you all! Take care. God Bless!

Angela Showers

So you call yourself a Christian... Then where is your Faith?

So you call yourself a Christian... Then where is your Faith?

I'm just curious why do so many Christians say they believe in the Lord, but just as soon as a storm arrive they begin to worry, have doubt, and stress over things that are out of our control. I just want to know do you think for one moment that God doesn't provide? Where does your Faith go?

Mark 4:37-40 (New International Version)

37A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?"

39He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

40He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"


I don't know about you all but if I have God on my boat and the storm is on the rise I will take my place right beside him and we would ride this storm together!

Are you in the right business for the right reasons?

Are you in the right business for the right reasons?

Many of us choose jobs because of money, how easy the job is with more pay, or because it sounds good and the say its a quick profit. Yet we start these jobs and struggle or we are unhappy. Why? Maybe that's not your purpose. Did you pray about that job before you decided to take it or sign up for it online? God has given us all talent, a vision, a purpose, a mission, or task. The question is "What are you doing with it?" Stop being concerned what people are going to think of you and just do whatever God has planned for you. Allow God to use you just as he did Moses in Exodus 3:1-14. No matter what your past looks like or your present God will still use you, but are you willing to accept the challenge. Choose your job wisely, don't allow yourself to get caught up in the hype of quick profits. Just stop and ask yourself is this my purpose , is this what God have planned for me? Many of you will ask, "How will I know what is plan his
for me?" Simple, thing will come to you in the wee hours of the night, it will be so heavy on you that thing will come to you at any given moment, you will grow an interest so deep in it that you can't back out of it, and once you humble yourself, pray, and summit to God, his plan will unfold right before your eyes quicker than you have ever imagined. We have allowed others to use us in so many ways that its ridiculous! Now its time for you to allow God to use you. i love you all and take care.

A Table in the Presence of Enemies!

I sit here as I look over the all the food I have prepared for my family today and I thank God! It was only Sunday I was thinking I only have $65 dollars to my name, its my daughter's birthday, Thanksgiving, and we have to make it until the 1st (husband in the Military so you know how that goes). I said don't trip girl God got you and he did! Then I remembered what he said in

Psalms 23:5
A Table in the Presence of Enemies!

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

I thought about it no matter how broke we maybe but God makes sure that he doesn't allow our enemies to see it. He make sure we look fabulous before the ones who tried or tries to bring us down. Remember he has already anointed your head with oil and you cup begins to overflow when you need it the most! God is an on time God! So be thankful, be satisfied. Back in the day God turned water into wine. Today he turned my meal, flour, and eggs into some cornbread stuffing LOL God is Good! Be Bless Be Thankful and Be Generous with what the Lord has bless you with on this day!

Good Morning Divas Nov 26, 2008

I was just thinking how much effort we put into our jobs and business. In some ways we become leaders, supervisors, or commander over someone who has been placed under your authority. We teach them and train them as we want them to do the work in perfect form. We ourselves practice perfection when it comes to our job and training other,however, what about home? We are the commanders over our kids or our household, we teach them the 10 commandments and expect them to live by them, when we fall short of them ourselves. We give them them House rules, but we intend to let them slide on a few from time to time. We let them slide by say rude things to a sibling , friends, or family member and laugh about it until that one day they try it with us. The point I'm getting at is why should our household be ran any less than our jobs? How can you have such leadership skills on the job when you are a slacker at being a commander in your own house. If you don't have your children to follower the
rules early every single time, and make them pay for it when they don't,There will always become a time when they might come to a situation and say I can get away with it this one time... and that one time can cause someone a lifetime. As you read the Inspiration of the day think of your children, think of how you are training them to become the commander of their household one day, teach them how to run the "Family Business". Some times we as a parent makes mistakes with raising our kids, but lets not blame it on them being hard headed, look back at the small things you allowed to go on. Look back at the times when you told them not to do something and they ask why and you said because I said so. Take the time to explain the pros and cons. Allow your child to see you as human by sharing some of your experiences with them. We are raising the future people so lets step up our game!

We have so many reasons to be thankful. So why do we complain so much? Look back 60 years ago when life was lived so simple but mankind had to go through so much just to make sure we were treated equally. However today we get upset over our cell phones and our computers acting up at times. People were murdered just for our kid of every race to attend the same schools. Many parents meals were made from just flour, meal, water, and fresh vegetables. Now we sit in long line to by fast food, call out for delivery, or throw something in the microwave. Back then many wore hand made clothes and hand me downs. However, we get so upset when our designer suites get a small stain in them.
I hear so many of us complain about finances. How can we fix our mouth to complain about finances when we are still able to sit in front of the computer and log on to True Divas, when we have a roof over our head, food to eat, lights,phone and cable is still working. How can we complain about anything when we have homeless families sleeping on the streets, kids dying of drug overdose, you have infant being born with AIDS but yet we complain. Our issues are small compared to so many other peoples issues. Be thankful if you are just late on a light bill, at least you have a house to sit in the dark. Be thankful people please life is too short to be ungrateful. Just please think before you complain about anything. Just know God knows your every need and he will provide. I love you all.

I just want to take the time to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I know many of you may be going out of town or staying at home to prepare a meal for your family. Whatever you decide to do please bee safe. The Winter Holidays are the most top rated for house fires so please double check everything before you leave the house and unplug all your Holiday decorations. Make sure all heaters are working properly and all cords are properly intact. I love you all and I think of each one of you as a family member. I want to see each of you succeed and be confident within yourself. As I've said before I'm always here when you need me and I'm sure quite a few women can vouch for that. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving. When you get the time read the real story of Thanksgiving in the Brutally Honest group, I guarantee you will have more to be thankful for.

I hope you all have a great Saturday! I found this poem and wanted to share it. SO Make room for your blessings!

CLEANING HOUSE FOR 2009

Last Week I threw out Worrying, it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me; I couldn't do things God's way.
I threw out a book on MY PAST
(Didn't have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with NEW GOALS, started reading it today.
I threw out hate and bad memories,
(Remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too, threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called I CAN, I WILL, AND I MUST.
Threw out I might, I think and I ought.
WOW, you should've seen the dust.
I ran across an OLD FRIEND, I hadn't talked to in a while.
His name is GOD the Father, and I really like His style.
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some things Himself.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE,
Yes I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up this special thing and placed it at the front door.
I FOUND IT- its called PEACE. Nothing gets me down anymore.
Yes, I've got my house looking nice.
Looks good around the place.
For things like Worry and Trouble there just isn't any space.
It's good to do a little house cleaning,
Get rid of the things on the shelf.
It sure makes things brighter; maybe you should TRY IT YOURSELF.
BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE ELSE!!!!

Happy Friday Divas!!! We have made it to the end of the week and what a wonderful week we've had.
I just want to ask one question... What have you done this week to improve yourself from last week? Every week you should do something to improve yourself as a person.,Build your character,and strengthen your personal development. We all see fault in other people that irritates us but we fail to realize that's something within ourselves that we need to alter. Self improvement is something we should take pride in doing and feel confident in doing so. Many of us fail to see that we have faults, or where we need improvement in ourselves. Ask your spouse, child, a close friend, parent, or sibling (someone who's going to be brutally honest with you) to Name one thing about you, as a person, that they feel you need to change. Collect their answers (don't get mad, don't ask them why, and don't jump into defense mode) and sit down and re-evaluate yourself and see how you could change those things. Its always better to get an outside opinion when it comes to yourself... just face it, you
wouldn't know if your breath stinks unless someone told you! LOL I love you all and have a great day!

Your True Diva,
Angela Showers

Good Morning Divas Nov 20, 2008

"What do you want from God?" This morning I was asked the question this question...and I thought WOW that's deep lol. I sat back and look a back at all the things I've prayed for, asked for help in, and sometimes I even got bold to demand things. I then thought about my daughter, how she ask for things All the time, how she acts so needy( when she could do things herself only if she tried), and how she gets stubborn at times and want to do as she please! Again I was like WoW!!! I only have one child and God has Billions of little knuckle heads just like my daughter to deal with all day every day...That man has to have some patience!

Ask yourself what have you done for God lately? Stop being that spoiled brat and do something for your Father in Heaven! He don't ask for much...he also so said "What you have done for others, you have done for me." So get to work and stop waiting on God to please you all the time and begin to put forth the effort to pleasing him! I love you all.

I don't know who this is for this morning but, God told me to ask you..." Where is your Faith?" (I'm about to get brutally honest here so don't get mad with me, I'm just doing my assignment!) Why do we even pray when we don't have Faith? Many of us kneel down and pray about situations and get back up and worry about them all over again... Why? Do you not have faith is our God? That's like telling God, " God I want to tell you about my problems, however, I don't believe you can't fix them." Wake up! Have you forgotten ALL he has brought you through? Have you forgotten how he pulled you through situations that you couldn't see your way out of? Have you forgotten about the times the devil had you so wrapped up and bind down in sin and God said I forgive you anyway? How much proof does it takes for you to notice how Powerful Our God is? You need to sit down and re-evaluate yourself, your thought, and your relationship with God! Stop thinking how bad the issue is, and how long the trial
may last and start thinking about ways to improve yourself and your relationship with God!

Your True Diva (just keeping it real),

Do you want to be successful? I'm sure you all have answered yes... who wouldn't want to be successful right. I have to be honest its three thing that will take you to success, your relationship with God, Faith, and Values! Those are the 3 keys to success. If you have those three things, you have nothing to loose! Stop focusing on money, cars, and clothes! Focus on your personal development. Make people see who you are, but not by what you have, what you have been through or where you come from. Introduce people to the real you, never alter yourself to fit in, stand strong for what you believe in and never fold out of fear of what people may think. People respect you more when they see and know who you are! When people see that success is soon to follow. It may not be given to you but you would have earned it! Keep faith and stay strong. I will post a blog this morning called Carrot, Egg, and Coffee... please check it out and tell me which one are you! I love you all!

Your True Diva,
Angela Showers

You have never seen this day before and you will never see another one like it. In the matter of seconds it could be taken away. Stay deep in the Word and stay hidden in prayer! I love you all.

Good Morning Divas Nov 15, 2008

Today is a day filled with opportunities! The question is what will you do when that opportunity knocks? Will you open the door to embrace it? Or will you back down in fear of not being able to handle it? What if the opportunity never knocks? Will you sit and continue to wait or will you build your own door? Decisions, decisions, decisions, be careful how you make them because all opportunities aren't good ones. Be wise and make clear decisions. When you kneel down to pray; pray for the right and perfect opportunity for you, and when the Lord sends it don't be afraid of the challenge for it may be bigger than what you asked for! I love you all and Enjoy your weekend.

Your True Diva,
Angela Showers
