22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror
24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does.

Reassurance During Trying Times...
When it seems as though all hope is lost, remember it's just an illusion from the enemy. Don't believe me? Take a look at what God's Word says:
Jeremiah 29:11 (The Message)
I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
Start believing in yourself because I already do!

Let's Get Drunk Together...
E.G.O. Thought: Are You Drunk In Your Purpose?I would like to share briefly the definition of drunk according to freedictionary.com: Overcome by strong feeling or emotion.
Quite often I encounter women who express to me they desire to live a purposeful life. Many struggle with self-esteem issues, neglecting one self for family and/or work, afraid to think or even step outside the box. Everyone has a purpose but what is yours? What brings out your heart desires? What are you willing to sacrifice to obtain fulfillment in your life? Is it really easier going through the motions in life rather than taking a leap of faith? Are you ready to separate yourself from the negative habits, people, and/or environment to walk in your purpose?
These are all valid questions that only you can answer. Walking in your purpose will bring about a feeling that causes a person sometimes to cry tears of joy. Why? Because there is freedom when you are walking in your true purpose. I say true purpose because many will try to create an illusion and the outcome is always the same: bondage just a different type. Your purpose will not only free you in the natural but your soul will be free. You will have more confidence, peace of mind and enjoy the smallest things in life!
Are you ready for the great life? Yes, the life that will leave you in a permanent drunken state of joy, motivation, empowerment, and inspiration.
Personally, my purpose is to improve the quality of life for women in the areas of health, relationships, community, finances, and spirituality. My heart yearns and burns deep with passion to assist women in their empowerment journey. My purpose often leaves me in a drunken state, bringing out my deepest emotion, filling my heart with joy and creating a new song in my soul daily. Your purpose should do the same!
Take some time out to get to know you. If you are not walking in your purpose, ask yourself why not. Your purpose will bring out many of your natural gifts. You must be ready to take a leap of faith and put action with that faith. Walking in your purpose will give you the best high you have ever experienced.
Are you ready to get drunk in your purpose? Come on don’t just take a sip, drink the whole thing. This drink is free but will cost you everything if you let the opportunity pass you by.
Start believing in yourself because I already do!

Unpredictable Situation But a PERMANENT Healing
John 5:1-8 (NIV)
The Healing at the Pool
1 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for a feast of the Jews.
2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda[a] and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades.
3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed.[b]
5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to get well?"
7 "Sir," the invalid replied, "I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me."
8 Then Jesus said to him, "Get up! Pick up your mat and walk."
9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.
Food for thought: Do you want to get well?
Let’s face it, many people appear to be in hopeless situations. Daily seeking help in all the wrong places, discovering quickly there is no one to help them. The above passages are significant because it teaches that God finds each of us at one point in our life helpless as this man.
Maybe you are not an invalid but your entire being is plagued with depression, alcoholism, prostitution (which by the way comes in various forms), fear, rage, insecurities, self-doubt, etc. God wants to grant you healing right now.
Here in this story we find a man who heart yearns to be healed but just don’t know how. How many of you have restless days and nights trying to figure out how YOU will make YOUR situation better?
Jesus knew that this man had been ill for a very long time, yet he posed the question "do you want to get well"(vs.6). Why do you think Jesus asked that question? Simple: He wanted to reveal this man heart.
You must have a heart of faith, of expectancy. This man could have easily thought about the what ifs, such as how am I going to find the strength to walk after all these years and allow fear to consume him, but he didn't.
See most people when they have gotten so use to being a certain way, they become afraid to walk into the unknown. STOP trying to figure out the hows in life. When conversating with Jesus clearly the man wanted to be healed and even told Jesus how his healing could take place.
I mean imagine that, this man has no idea divine healing is about to take place! Instead of prolonging the process, Jesus immediately gives this man complete healing. Verse 8: Then Jesus said to him, "Get up! Pick up your mat and walk" is so powerful because not only does healing takes place but also renewed strength!
God is telling you He wants to strengthen you like never before. It's time to PICK UP YOUR MAT AND WALK!! God has made a way for you and me. Yes you may have been patiently waiting or trying to figure it out on your own for years.
You do not have to wait any longer, God is ready to pour down an unexpected healing with renewed strength. Will you continue to allow those addictions, those sins to keep you an invalid? Or will you accept God open invitation to heal you at the pool?

You Are A Winner...
E.G.O. Thought: What makes me a winner? This question may seem like a difficult one to answer, but in fact it is easy to answer. I believe what makes a person a winner is persevering when the world says it is impossible. It is easy to take on a lazy mentality but a winner will follow through with their goals. After all isn't that what self discipline is all about? Pushing and fighting your way through every chain of bondage until the chains were finally broken off is what makes you a winner. Yes you my dear who cried many of nights. Yes you dear who continue to walk by faith and not by sight. When the world says no you continued to yell a loud YES!
So congrats to you for staying in the race; for you are indeed a winner in my eyes!
Affirmation:
1. I am a Winner!
2. I am more than a conqueror!
3. I will persevere!
4. I lack for nothing!
5. I Know I Can! I Know I Can!

"The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind."- Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
E.G.O. Word of The Day...
Psalm 37 (The Message)
1-2 Don't bother your head with braggarts or wish you could succeed like the wicked.
In no time they'll shrivel like grass clippings
and wilt like cut flowers in the sun.
3-4 Get insurance with God and do a good deed,
settle down and stick to your last.
Keep company with God,
get in on the best.
5-6 Open up before God, keep nothing back;
he'll do whatever needs to be done:
He'll validate your life in the clear light of day
and stamp you with approval at high noon.
7 Quiet down before God,
be prayerful before him.
Don't bother with those who climb the ladder,
who elbow their way to the top.
8-9 Bridle your anger, trash your wrath,
cool your pipes—it only makes things worse.
Before long the crooks will be bankrupt;
God-investors will soon own the store.
10-11 Before you know it, the wicked will have had it;
you'll stare at his once famous place and—nothing!
Down-to-earth people will move in and take over,
relishing a huge bonanza.
12-13 Bad guys have it in for the good guys,
obsessed with doing them in.
But God isn't losing any sleep; to him
they're a joke with no punch line.
14-15 Bullies brandish their swords,
pull back on their bows with a flourish.
They're out to beat up on the harmless,
or mug that nice man out walking his dog.
A banana peel lands them flat on their faces—
slapstick figures in a moral circus.
16-17 Less is more and more is less.
One righteous will outclass fifty wicked,
For the wicked are moral weaklings
but the righteous are God-strong.
18-19 God keeps track of the decent folk;
what they do won't soon be forgotten.
In hard times, they'll hold their heads high;
when the shelves are bare, they'll be full.
20 God-despisers have had it;
God's enemies are finished—
Stripped bare like vineyards at harvest time,
vanished like smoke in thin air.
21-22 Wicked borrows and never returns;
Righteous gives and gives.
Generous gets it all in the end;
Stingy is cut off at the pass.
23-24 Stalwart walks in step with God;
his path blazed by God, he's happy.
If he stumbles, he's not down for long;
God has a grip on his hand.
25-26 I once was young, now I'm a graybeard—
not once have I seen an abandoned believer,
or his kids out roaming the streets.
Every day he's out giving and lending,
his children making him proud.
27-28 Turn your back on evil,
work for the good and don't quit.
God loves this kind of thing,
never turns away from his friends.
28-29 Live this way and you've got it made,
but bad eggs will be tossed out.
The good get planted on good land
and put down healthy roots.
30-31 Righteous chews on wisdom like a dog on a bone,
rolls virtue around on his tongue.
His heart pumps God's Word like blood through his veins;
his feet are as sure as a cat's.
32-33 Wicked sets a watch for Righteous,
he's out for the kill.
God, alert, is also on watch—
Wicked won't hurt a hair of his head.
34 Wait passionately for God,
don't leave the path.
He'll give you your place in the sun
while you watch the wicked lose it.
35-36 I saw Wicked bloated like a toad,
croaking pretentious nonsense.
The next time I looked there was nothing—
a punctured bladder, vapid and limp.
37-38 Keep your eye on the healthy soul,
scrutinize the straight life;
There's a future
in strenuous wholeness.
But the willful will soon be discarded;
insolent souls are on a dead-end street.
39-40 The spacious, free life is from God,
it's also protected and safe.
God-strengthened, we're delivered from evil—
when we run to him, he saves us.
1-2 Don't bother your head with braggarts or wish you could succeed like the wicked.
In no time they'll shrivel like grass clippings
and wilt like cut flowers in the sun.
3-4 Get insurance with God and do a good deed,

his feet are as sure as a cat's.
32-33 Wicked sets a watch for Righteous,
he's out for the kill.
God, alert, is also on watch—
Wicked won't hurt a hair of his head.
34 Wait passionately for God,
don't leave the path.
He'll give you your place in the sun
while you watch the wicked lose it.
35-36 I saw Wicked bloated like a toad,
croaking pretentious nonsense.
The next time I looked there was nothing—
a punctured bladder, vapid and limp.
37-38 Keep your eye on the healthy soul,
scrutinize the straight life;
There's a future
in strenuous wholeness.
But the willful will soon be discarded;
insolent souls are on a dead-end street.
39-40 The spacious, free life is from God,
it's also protected and safe.
God-strengthened, we're delivered from evil—
when we run to him, he saves us.

E.G.O. Quote of The Day...
This is more of a Motivational Poem...be encouraged!
Don't Quit
"When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill.
When funds are low and the debts are high.
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit.
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns.
As everyone of us sometimes learns.
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are.
It may be near when it seems so far:
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that you must not QUIT.

Little Lesson On Faith...
On yesterday I attended an awesome Setting the Captives Free Prayer & Bible Teaching that was taught by Prophetess V. Green. She has been teaching on Faith and I wanted to share with you briefly what I learned about faith on last night. Children of God this is our NOW season but do you believe? Will you continue to confess His word in spite of what you see? Let this be a refresher course and I pray God gives you the desires of your heart.Quick Overview of Faith:
1. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)
2. Faith is Action.
3. Faith is Right Now.
4. Faith is Trust.
5. Faith is Confidence.
6. Faith is Assurance.
7. Faith is Believing(in the supernatural).
8. Faith takes no for an answer.
9. Must have persistent Faith.
10. Keep confessing Faith.
11. Someone gives you a negative report, DON"T RECEIVE...DON"T AGREE!
12. Knowing the names of God will increase your Faith.
13. The Power of Faith: Mark 11:22-26
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
14. Repeat: I AM LIVING IN MY NOW SEASON OF FAITH!
