Sharing the Gospel
through this magazine
O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water.
Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
Because Your loving kindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift
up my hands in Your name. My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers
praises with joyful lips. When I remember You on my bed, I meditate
on You in the night watches, For You have been my help.
Psalm 63:1-6

Encouraging, inspirational, and motivating are the words
used to describe the TV and radio talk show entitled,
The Exchange. The Exchange offers inspirational
testimonies from ordinary people doing extraordinary
things, overcoming insurmountable obstacles and
achieving personal victories.
Produced by Minister Gregory and Dr. Jacquie Hadnot,
the show addresses issues such as health and wellness,
spiritual growth, domestic violence, relationships,
parenting, current events and more. We interview
ministers, authors, fashion experts, health professionals,
news and media personalities, and unveil talents from
around the world.
“People face countless issues and often push their
dreams and goals to the backburner and never reach
their God given potential” says Dr. Hadnot. “Although
some women may never own their own business or
attain national recognition, every person can live life to
the fullest - one dream at a time. Sometimes we need to
be reminded that we have value and worth, and our
contributions to society are immeasurable. God’s people
are a powerful force in society, and it is time to let our
voices be heard."
The Exchange, an inspiring, motivating experience that
supports spiritual growth and life achievements was
inspired by a song written by Dr. Hadnot. Over the past
5 years, she has birthed 2 successful conferences from
which the show derived it’s foundation.
The talk show reach people from all walks of life. The
atmosphere is fun and friendly a group of friends sharing
their questions and insights and consulting with guest
experts when needed. The objective of the show is to
provide answers to the questions that most individuals
want answered but are afraid to ask. This show is not
about chasing celebrities it will focus on celebrating
ordinary people who are doing extraordinary things. Our
focus is on real people, real conversations and real
Solutions will flow from discussing issues that
matter most. “For every person who goes from the
pit to the promise there are still thousands who are
stuck in the pit waiting for someone to grab her hand
and pull her out,” says Dr. Hadnot. “My prayer is
that The Exchange will be the hand that pulls them
out. Our motto: leave no one behind.”
Dr. Hadnot, author of more than 30 books, editor of
Light for Your Path magazine, founder of It Is
Written Ministries and A Woman of Worth
Empowerment Ministry, has been in radio since
2004 first as an on air minister of the word of God
and later as an internet radio station owner. She has
also made numerous television appearances. She

experience to the weekly broadcast, creating a forum
for diverse voices that are authoritative,
inspirational, entertaining and educating. Known for

and quotable.

When the Lord spoke these three words “Naked, Broken
and Unashamed” I did not realize the full extent of His
message. I knew that it had to do with PWP, but I did
not realize the impact it would have on the lives of the
people we would reach with this message.
The necessity to look at each word carries within it a
depth of our freedom found only in Him. “Whom the
Son sets free is free indeed.” True freedom is attached
to our relationship with the Almighty. A shallow
relationship will not produce real freedom. A degree of
freedom will come, but it will not be to the depth that
He desires for us.
Freedom does carry a price and Jesus paid the price on
the cross. Nevertheless, it is up to us to stay free. That
means staying in a place with Him, in Him and through
Him that keeps us aware of the entrapments of the
enemy. The condemnation that the enemy tries to
enslave us with is a tool that he (the enemy) has
mastered. He will use condemnation as a swordsman
wields a sword. He will use it to cut at the very fiber of
our core.
We must recognize the enemy and his deceptive devices
if we are to remain in a place of nakedness, brokenness
and not be ashamed of our past. Our past is “the past”
and it should not to be used against us. Moreover, it
should not entrap or bind us to the spirit of shame.
The spirit of shame in connected to many other spirits
that can attach themselves because we have opened the
door that allows them access. Mistakes from our past
will harbor these spirits and render us ineffective for the
Kingdom of God.
The Word of God says, “No weapon formed against us
shall prosper.” He did not say it would not form, He
said it would not prosper. This means that every trip,
trap or snare that the enemy sets against us we must pull
down.
We must pull down the traps and snares with the Word
of God. We must also know each weapon in our arsenal
based on Ephesians chapter six and how to effectively
use them.
The Lord spoke Naked, Broken and Unashamed.
NAKED means:
� having no clothing on any part of the body
� Lacking covering: lacking the usual covering or
protection
� without embellishment the naked truth Unarmed:
unarmed and defenseless
� Devoid of something; naked of all pretensions to
grandeur
When we are naked before the Lord:
� We lack the usual covering or protection from the
doctrines or rudiments of this world. Doctrines tend
to hide our “messy behavior.”
� We lack the religious ideas that have kept us bound.
� Our past sins are displayed openly and God can
deal with them.
� We are without the usual embellishments of this
world’s system and therefore, He sees us as we
really are. Our gifts, talents, skills, outward beauty
are embellishments.
� We are unarmed and defenseless when we stand in
his presence and face the enemy within us.
� We are naked of all pretensions to grandeur that
come with our titles, positions, social or economic
status.
We are in a position where we are stripped us of
everything we think we are. God wants to use us, but
we must come to Him humble. All of our preconceived
ideas about who we are, what we are and where we are,
are stripped away.
Being naked before Him means that all of the things we
hold dear are stripped away. Sin cannot enter into His
presence. The preconceived plans of man cannot stand
before the matchless One; they have to be stripped
away. When we are stripped of everything, we will
draw closer to Him because everything is out of the
way. All obstacles and barriers are removed. God will
strip us of materials things, money, property,
possessions, people, status and position in order to bring
us face to face with ourselves, wretched and undone.
Once we are stripped of the things that define us, God
can deal with us unhindered by our trappings and
delusions of grandeur. Titles, positions and earthly
Naked, Broken and Unashamed Freedom from the chains of bondage of the enemy
11
process because the hidden things are elements that feed
our delusions of grandeur. Pride is rooted and grounded
in the soil of its father the devil and MUST be uprooted
before any further breaking can take place.
When God begins to break things off this means, that
pride is no longer whole. It is in two or more pieces
because the hand of God has struck it. Pride is
instrumental in keeping us from the fullness of God. I
believe that is why He deals with pride first. God
strikes at the very heart of pride and the shattered pieces
of our pride must be removed; there can be no residue. If
residue is left, it can be replanted in our hearts by the
enemy. We must die to pride, selfish ambitions and
other elements that fuel the burning stench of pride.
BROKEN means that our way of doing things is not in
proper working condition and everything we touch turns
to mud. Again, we are trying to make things happen or
force them to happen. We wind up spinning our wheels
and getting nowhere fast. God must break us from this
pattern if we are to move forward.
God uses our brokenness to weaken us. Once we are
stripped of our self-will, selfish ambitions, selfish
desires or self-centeredness - He can strengthen us with
His strength. When we fight against the tide for too long
we become tired and give up. God will allow us to fight
against the spiritual elements in order to weaken us and
get our attention. He will allow the enemy to come
against us in order to weaken our spiritual resistance and
give way to a new place in Him.
Another part of the process is the destruction of pride,
arrogance, fear, and doubt through adversity. God will
use adversity to shake us up. God will also allow our
SELF LIFE ISSUES to be destroyed by grief or
misfortune. Once He has crippled the bondages of the
enemy He can get our attention.
This is a painful process because usually we cannot
understand how God could allow such things to happen
to us. Self-justification will rise during the process and
since it is an element of pride, it too must be destroyed.
During the breaking process, many areas of our lives
will appear to be lacking the parts necessary to be
complete. Our ministries, marriages, relationships and
careers will lack the parts needed to be whole or
complete. God will allow a scattering to occur because
lack is not His Will for us. No matter how hard you try
“power” are hindering God’s move in us, through us and
for us. Now that all barriers are stripped away - it is
time to come face to face with SELF.
The worst thing we can do to ourselves is turn away
once the stripping process starts. When we run from
God, we are allowing the enemy full access to us and
our destiny. Instead of birthing ministry, we wind up
making ministry. Instead of bringing forth that which is
healthy and prosperous in the eyes of God, we bring
forth a “bastard” child that does not carry the seed of the
El Shaddai - God Almighty.
The thing that we birth cannot be blessed and prosper
because it does not belong to Jehovah Rohi, the Lord our
Shepherd. He cannot lead and guide a child that belongs
to the enemy.
The process of stripping MUST be carried out and we
MUST go through it like the men and women of God
that we are called to be. We MUST stand in the midst
of the stripping with our spiritual heads held high. We
know that His love has brought us to this point. We
MUST stand in the midst of the stripping with the
heartfelt knowledge that it is for our good and His glory.
Without complaining and murmuring, we press on to the
mark of His High calling for our lives. We press on
knowing that the enemy is already defeated and the
Lord’s goal for us is ultimate victory. Again, no weapon
formed against us will prosper. It does not matter what it
looks like, what matters is what He looks like.
Naked before Him is a position of new beginnings for
us. It is a position that each of us that desires to be with
Him MUST take.
BROKEN means:
� no longer whole: in two or more pieces, e.g. after
having been dropped or struck with something hard
� out of order: no longer in working condition
� weakened: physically weakened
� destroyed by adversity: destroyed or badly hurt by
grief or misfortune
� incomplete: lacking parts necessary to be complete
� disorganized: lacking order or harmony
Once the Lord has stripped us of the things we hold
dear, He then begins a breaking process. The breaking
process is painful and often this is the point where many
of us will begin to run, hide, deny or justify.
Pride is a key factor in hindering the breaking process.
Pride wants to hide from the breaking; it seeks to
conceal that which God is exposing. Pride hinders the
12
to pull it together, nothing works out the way you
envisioned. If left unchecked, you will have incomplete
projects, jobs or relationships scattered everywhere.
Finally, an essential part of the breaking process is the
lack of order or harmony in your life. Everything you
touch seems covered in chaos, drama or problems. When
you are out of alignment with the ONE who positions us,
disharmony or dis-ease occurs. It is part of the process to
open the eyes and ears of the dis-eased heart.
God takes us on this journey because He:
� Loves us
� Wants to use us
� Wants the best for us
� Desires to see us set free and delivered from the hand
of enemy
A broken spirit and a contrite heart, to these He will draw
near. “The Lord is close to those who are of a broken
heart and saves such as are crushed with sorrow for sin
and are humbly and thoroughly penitent.” (Psalm 34:18
AMP). God desires to draw near but He will not draw
near to the stench of unrepentant flesh. He desires to
draw near to the vessel where flesh (selfish-desires) has
been sacrificed on the altar. The sacrifices of God are a
broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou
wilt not despise (Psalm 51:17 KJV).
We must be dead men walking, dead to the traps, snares
and tricks of the enemy. This means that God in His
infinite wisdom has brought us through a crushing
process in order to mend and make us whole.
He places a refiner’s fire before us to burn up all the
fragments and debris. He allows the fire to burn often at
spiritual temperatures that exceed the lava of a volcano.
“But who can endure the day of His coming? And who
can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s
fire and like fullers’ soap. “He will sit as a smelter and
purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi and
refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present
to the LORD offerings in righteousness (Malachi 3:2-3).
Once we are in the refiner’s fire the real testing comes.
The testing is for our faith in Christ Jesus. The testing
comes to strengthen our faith and trust in the Lord. We
find ourselves in broken pieces waiting for the day to
come when the Lord will restore us. The trials come to
purify us of pride, fear, doubt, unbelief, negativity and the
like. That the trial of your faith, being much more
precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried
with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and
glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ (1Peter 1:7).
We have walked out a process of:
� Being naked before the Lord
� Being broken of everything we thought we were,
everything we held on so dearly to, and broken of
pride and it’s fruits.
You ask, what now Lord? You have stripped me naked;
you have broken me down to the core. What now, Lord?
Now it is time for the Lord to begin the healing process.
The healing process occurs because He is a repairer of the
breaches in our lives and a restorer of the paths in which
we walk.
To HEAL means:
� to restore a person, body part, or injury to health
� be repaired naturally: to be repaired and restored
naturally
� to recover spiritually or emotionally:
� to get rid of a wrong, evil, or painful affliction
� by the formation of scar tissue
God’s healing process is a procedure that heals, mends
and restores us to full spiritual health and vitality through
the following:
� He restores us to a spiritually healthy place in Him.
Our spiritual eyes and ears are attentive to His voice.
� He repairs and restores the dry places in our lives.
� We recover spiritually & emotionally by His love
& grace.
� The formation of spiritual scar tissue occurs to
protect the place where God has cut away the infected
areas. This also gets rid of any wrong, evil, or
painful afflictions that might try to reoccur during
our healing process.
Once the healing process is complete, He can then begin
to reshape us into His image, placing His heart, Mind and
Spirit within us. I call this a spiritual transplant. He
replaces our old DNA with His DNA. I call it the
DIVINE NATURE OF THE ALMIGHTY and it now
flows through our veins. It changes the very fiber of who
we are. It redirects our thoughts, will and emotions into a
path of His righteousness, purpose and plans.
We now operate under the power or DNA of our creator.
His divine nature brings us closer to His manifested
presence. His divine nature flows through us and as a
result, we are connected to the life source of the vine.
13
We have endured a spiritual transplant that has changed
the countenance of our spiritual and earthly being.
Nothing we endeavor from this point on will have any
resemblance of the way in which we use to do things. We
will consult Him on all things, we will trust Him in all
things, and we will believe Him for all things. His DNA is
the essence of our lives and He is the source of our
strength.
We are now at a place in Him where we can help others
come through the process. We are in a place in Him that
says, I am healed, set free and delivered and I can now go
back and help others still in the war, still in the fire, still
in the grips of the enemy. I am now in a place where my
spiritual strength is renewed and I can tell others what I
went through. I go through taking no praise, glory or
honor for myself. I can be a light for others to see. I am
now a living sacrifice, which is holy and acceptable to
God. I am now ready to tell others what I endured for the
cause of Christ and the freedom of HIS people.
I can tell others:
� I was once naked but now I am clothed in His
righteousness
� I was once broken, but now I am healed in Jesus
Name.
� I was once ashamed of the chains that had me bound,
but now I am unashamed ready to tell the world that
I am an over comer by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB
and by the words of THIS TESTIMONY - MY
TESTIMONY and you too can be FREE.
� We can do all things through Christ Jesus that
strengthens us.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 2 Corinthians 3:17
Are You Ready to Accept God’s Gift of Salvation?
If you truly believe the message of the Roman Road, and
want to accept God’s gift of salvation right now, it's a
matter of repenting of your sins and turning the rest of
your life over to Jesus Christ. Again, this is not a ritual
based on any specific words or prayers, but rather, a
willful decision and a sincere step of faith.
“Father, I know that I have broken your laws
and my sins have separated me from you. I am
truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from
my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive
me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe
that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was
resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears
my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of
my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this
day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to
help me obey You, and to do Your will for the
rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.”
"Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name
of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall
receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts 2:38)
If you decided to receive Jesus today, welcome to God's
family. Now, as a way to grow closer to Him, the Bible
tells us to follow up on our commitment.
� Get baptized as commanded by Christ.
� Tell someone else about your new faith in Christ.
� Spend time with God each day. It does not have to be a
long period of time. Just develop the daily habit of
praying to Him and reading His Word. Ask God to
increase your faith and your understanding of the
Bible.
� Seek fellowship with other followers of Jesus.
Develop a group of believing friends to answer your
questions and support you.
� Find a local church where you can worship God.
STAY FREE SO GOD CAN PROSPER YOU!

fulfill a work on the earth. Work that requires
strength, humility, passion, compassion, obedience,
trust and faith - faith in God and faith in ourselves.
We were not created to simply walk around bare foot
and pregnant. We were not created to serve and never
be served. We were created to be celebrated and not
simply tolerated.
With the many layers of a woman, it is no wonder we
have accomplished so much down through the years.
We flow in many areas today that were once
forbidden or taboo. Because of our ability to adapt to
any situation, we can flow in places, spheres and
realms that are often difficult for men. Please
understand, I am not minimizing our husbands or
brothers, I am simply stating that we are able to adapt
to any situation. Our wombs were designed by God
to adapt and give birth. Try pushing out a ten pound
big head baby and see what I mean.
Because we are layered in the strength of the Lord,
we have the ability and strength to endure trials,
tribulations, hardships and pain. “How beautiful your
sandaled feet, O prince’s daughter” (Song of Songs
7:1)! We walk in a level of authority given to us by
God. Our feet were created to stand in high heels or
combat boots. We are comfortable walking in
whatever shoes. Why? Because we are steppers for
the Kingdom.
Women come in many shapes, forms and sizes - tall,
short, thin or thick madams. We come in all race,
colors and creeds. No two women are alike. We are
unique to the divine design of God because God
fearfully and wonderfully makes us.
Like a river, our layers run deep, like a river, we are
constantly flowing in whatever vein we flow.
Moreover, like a river we can shift with the tides of
life.
Our inner beauty can be as captivating as our
physical beauty. Armed with the mind and heart of
God, we are unmovable, unshakable, and ready to
stand our ground and war in the natural and in the
spiritual realm. We are mighty through God ready to
pull down strongholds and cast down every
imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge
of God and His purpose for our lives (2 Cor.10: 4-5
paraphrased).
Women are strong, fragile, and fearless while at the

Women are tenacious yet flexible. No matter the

with her many layers and nuances is comfortable in

What Kind of
Bird Are You?
Things
that Make
You Go
HUM?
There are three (3) kinds of birds:
� A BUZZARD: They eat dead things.
� A CHICKEN: They peck around for things.
� AN EAGLE: They soar in, over and through things.
ARE YOU A BUZZARD? � You are a buzzard if you are still eating off the dead relationships of your past?
� You are a buzzard if you are still eating off the bitterness, hurts, and abuses from your
past.
� You are a buzzard if you are taking handouts of dead issues from other buzzards.
ARE YOU A CHICKEN? � You are a chicken if you are still pecking around after men or women who disrespected
you, cheated on you and in general dogged you out.
� You are a chicken if you allow people to walk over you, never speak up for yourself
and peck around like a chicken when they mistreat you.
� You are a chicken if you are pecking around waiting for other people to validate you.
� You are a chicken if you are always looking back at your past, calling it “the good ole
days” and never making new memories or having new testimonies.
� You are a chicken if this article has offended you because you think I shouldn’t have
written it.

What Kind of
Bird Are You?
ARE YOU AN EAGLE?
� Eagles fly alone at high altitude and not with sparrows or other small birds. No other bird
can get to the height of the eagle. Stay away from sparrows and ravens. Eagles fly with
Eagles.
� Eagles have strong vision. They have the ability to focus on something up to five
kilometers away. When an eagle sites his prey, he narrows his focus on it and set out to
get it. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he
grabs it. Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacle and you will
succeed.
� Eagles do not eat dead things. They feed only on fresh prey. Vultures eat dead animals,
but eagles will not. Be careful with what you feed your eyes and ears with, especially in
movies and n TV. Steer clear of outdated and old information. Always do your research
well.
� Eagles love the storm. When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle uses the
storm’s wind to lift it higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagles uses the raging
storm to lift him above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its
wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of the trees. We
can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers relish challenges and use them
profitably.

Prayer is not something that you do, prayer is the place you should live. Prayer is not a Sunday morning only
event. Prayer is a lifestyle. Prayer is not a tool you use when you want something from the HAND OF GOD.
Prayer is the place you press into to get to the heart of God. Prayer is our direct line with heaven. Prayer is
communion with God.
God desires to take our prayer lives to another dimension, individually and corporately. Prayer is the key to God
moving in the lives of the people. The Lord is good to those who seek him diligently and He withholds nothing
good from them and prayer is the key is getting to the very heart of God.
This is the season for much prayer because it is a season of much warfare. God will cover us in all things and
through all things, but we must come to Him in prayer and with a heart of faith. Because there is great warfare
in the spiritual realm, we need to adjust ourselves and position our spirits in prayer and fasting.1
This is a real war and people must stop taking the enemy and his wiles and traps as if it is a joke. We must bind
the strongman in order to have the victory.
The church has come to a comfortable zone because it does not understand its role in the world, we were saved
to play an important role in setting the captives free, becoming the light in darkness, forsaking evil ways that
network Satan to our families. Instead of being the light, the church is hiding the light. That is why God has
placed what he is calling his "elite remnant" together to advance the kingdom and not be afraid of the status
quo.
The new generation that is coming forward, is coming with revelation, power, as non compromising men and
women, we need to look unto the author and finisher of our faith, we are the remnant that should amend, rectify,
bring back the church to its true functioning authority, where God healed by Paul’s shadow, demons chased
without struggling, may God restore us and anoint us for this reason and purpose. The demonstration of God's
power is what is needed and prayer is the key to tap into the source of all power.1
It only takes a remnant to change a nation. We are called to be agents of change. And as agents of change it is
time to take on the mantle of prayer and begin to pull down strongholds that have held our people captive for far
too long. (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of
strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of
God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 2Co 10:4-5
Pray with power, pray in faith, and pray effectively. Because prayer will unlock God’s purpose and plans for the
end-times church. Without effective prayer the church will be lost and walking in darkness. Be careful for
nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto
God. Phil 4:16

Welcome to It’s All in Your Name: Loving God
through His Names. The names of God used in
the Bible act as a roadmap for learning about
the character of God. Since the Bible is God’s
Word to us, the names He chooses in scripture
are meant to reveal His true nature to us.
Jesus presents himself as the I AM when
challenged by religious leaders. The I AM
means His Is everything. Jesus came to reveal
the God of the Bible and God has revealed
Himself in His book. As you learn the names of
God you will begin to discover His attributes
such as:
Wisdom - infinitude - sovereignty - holiness -
trinity - omniscience - faithfulness - mercy -
omnipotence - love - goodness and self-
sufficiency.
You will find when you pray His names: power,
healing, joy, deliverance, peace and love.
I invite you to press in to God through His
names. You will find a deeper love relationship
as you journey through the names of
Emmanuel - GOD WITH US.

Worship on Fire
Worship must begin on the inside - it is a matter of the heart. The Lord wants to take us to another level of worship. The season of worship we are about to encounter will require a deeper ear to
hear the Lord.
“Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
God is spirit and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”
John 4:23-24
As a teacher and a worshiper it is my passion to teach the people of God to worship God. There is no formula, that says, this is how you worship,
but there is a position of the heart that God requires from us and that is where worship must begin.
It is a journey that begins IN THE HEART
Worship begins when you open the door of your heart to God...

Inspiring Moments…
Ladies, It is time to be inspired in every area of
your life. It is time to find the inspiration to
embrace the woman God created you to be. For
years, many women have been sitting on the
back burner, side lined due to low self-esteem,
insecurity and inferiority. Pick yourself up, step
up to a mirror and shout: I’M BAD -
BEAUTIFUL, AMAZING AND DESTINED
FOR GREATNESS.
Here are some words to inspire you to move
forward in life.
� It is very important to stay in touch with who
we are in Christ Jesus. If we loose sight of
WHOSE we are, then we are destined to
travel wrong roads, make wrong choices and
settle for LESS THAN God's best for us.
Stay connected to the vine.
� Often as women, we forget that God created
us with an inner strength and determination
that says, “I am fearfully and wonderfully
made by the hand of God. I am more than a
conqueror. I am strong in the power of His
might.
� It is vital to your emotional and spiritual
growth to be free from the chains of fear,
shame, abuse, bitterness, anger, doubt, low
self esteem or whatever it might be - so that
you can walk in the fullness of life. You
cannot carry around dead weight.
� The only person that can condemn you - is
YOU. Everyone else is on assignment.
� Your heart was equipped by God with
many things: (1) love (2) hope (3) desire.
Anything else might weigh you down.
Hold on to the things that matter most.
� The day you discover your inner strength is
the day you will stop settling for less than
God’s best.
� When people put you down, find a way to lift
them up. They might be putting you down
because they need a way to feel better about
themselves.
� As you overcome challenges and obstacles,
learn from them so that you don’t have to
repeat them.
� If you don’t learn from your mistakes you will
repeat them and the next time it might be
worse.
� Don’t choose men because they look GOOD;
choose men because he looks GOD. (The man
that finds a wife finds a good thing - let God
do the choosing).
� Look for patterns of behavior that keep you
from moving forward. Dating the same
destructive men, spending habits that leave
you bankrupt, employment choices, eating
habits. Work towards changing unhealthy
areas of your life.
Be Inspired…

Be Courageous and walk
through the Open Doors
God has put in your life
Remember:
Opportunities are often disguised as
problems. Problems can actually be an
opportunity!
Opportunities are often time-sensitive. Don’t
let hesitation and procrastination lead to
devastation!
Opportunities are often tested by opposition.
Don’t miss a blessing filled life by trying to
attain a problem free life!
Opportunities are often missed because of
fear. Whenever there is fearful response on our
part there is a faithful reassurance on God’s!
Don’t limit God! Develop eyes of faith which
are constantly looking for the doors He is
opening. Use the four check-points above to
evaluate current opportunities. Once you cross
the threshold of an Open Door you’ll discover
God’s hand reaching out for yours on the other
side.

For centuries women have been relegated to a place
where oftentimes their voices could not be heard. They
were silenced in a place where the passion and fire were
destined to die. Severely weighed down by the weight of
a system that was anti-woman. Why? No one really has
the answer except with the occasional, “women are the
weaker sex” or “woman should be seen and not heard”
or “women are not to be in places of authority.”
When a woman is held down, weighed down, or put
down, it creates a void in her life and heart. It creates a
chain of bondage that is sometimes carried to the grave,
physical, spiritual or emotional. It is a grave of
depression, oppression, or regression. The grave covers
her life the way dirt covers a natural grave. The grave is
designed to shut down any resemblance of life, purpose
or destiny.
Regardless of whether she goes to the grave willingly or
unwillingly, the fact is she is there and without the hand
of God to bring her out; she is stuck, lifeless and ready
to decay spiritually, emotionally and sometimes
physically.
With all the pains of woman’s past and present it is not
wonder that she often feels like she is dying. But today
is the day that you begin to take off the graves clothes
and hear the voice of the Lord as He calls to you saying,
“Talitha, cumi, woman, arise to the purpose and destiny
that I have placed before you before the foundation of
the world. Arise to your calling to the nations. Arise, to
walk out every step I have ordered.
Arise, to your healing. Arise, to my plan. Arise, and
walk with me to heal the nations. Arise, and bring
healing to your family. Arise, arise, arise, Talitha cumi,
my daughter, take my hand and arise! You are not hand
and arise! You are not dead; your destiny is not dead,
your place in Me is not dead, your peace is not dead,
your joy is not dead, and your womb is not dead. The
Lord declares, Arise, and allow me to show you how to
walk into your destiny, because I know the thoughts and
plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to
harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
The Spirit of the Lord is crying out to women
everywhere, “Call upon me and come and pray to me,
and I will listen to you. Seek me and find me when you
seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,”
declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from
captivity.
The Lord is ready, willing and able to bring us out of
captivity and release us to a Kingdom assignment. He is
ready to destroy the desolate places brought on by
captivity and bring forth a harvest in our due season.
Sisters, this is not the time to faint, nations are waiting
for what is in our bellies. The whole world groans with
labor pains awaiting the arrival of the destiny that you
are about to birth. The Lord is calling for us to get in
position with great expectancy for the destiny that He
has impregnated inside of you.
It does not matter who has tried to cause you to abort of
miscarry, what matters is who is the Father? It does not
matter what family, friends or the world thinks of your
calling, what matters is what does the Father say about
the destiny you are about to birth? Your family did not
impregnate you; your friends didn’t place that seed
inside of you. The Father placed the seed inside you
and it is His seed that you must carry to term and get
into position when it is time to push for your destiny.

It does not matter who has tried to cause you to abort or
miscarry, what matters is who is the Father? It does not
matter what family, friends or the world thinks of your
calling, what matters is what does the Father say about
the destiny you are about to birth? Your family did not
impregnate you; your friends didn’t place that seed
inside of you. The Father placed the seed inside you
and it is His seed that you must carry to term and get
into position when it is time to push for your destiny.
Everything you have endured all these years was a
preparation stage for where you are going. The
preparation stages you endured were not easy, but they
were necessary for where you are going. They were
needed to strengthen you for the journey because you
may be pregnant with twins for the Lord. That means
that you need to be twice as strong in your spiritual legs
and back in order to carry the weight of the destiny.
Remember, you are pregnant with glorious purpose for
the Lord.
The Father is fully capable of placing everything you
need in your path to help you bring your destiny to term.
He will place people, finances, resources and whatever
is needed to enable you to properly walk into and
operate fully in your destiny.
When you allow the Lord to be the Father, you won’t
have to worry about provision, because He is not
deadbeat dad. He is God of the Covenant over your life.
You are carrying a covenant child and every need He
will supply for anyone who is His.
Again, the Lord is saying, “Talitha cumi, my daughter,
take my hand and arise! You are not dead, your destiny
is not dead, your place in Me is not dead, your peace is
not dead, your joy is not dead, and your womb is not
dead. Arise!
