My scars remain, from the demons that tormented me mentally. But scars show a story of survival. I have way more on my legs but I will not show that at all. I just want to show others even those demons don't stand a chance, when it comes to Jesus, and the power of the Holy Ghost!!! Deliverance and a sane mind is a beautiful thing!!

If you live for the praise of this world, eventually you will conform to this world. It will be validation from them you seek, and not pleasing Jesus 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

8 years sober on Jan 31,2024, and it still blows my mind who I use to be. Who God saved me from, and what God saved me from. What He's blessed me with and continues to bless me, even if all I ever get blessed with, is breath in my lungs... I AM BLESSED! TYA JESUS 🙌🏻

The Holy Ghost is our helper, IF we let it. However, we are still flesh. That is why it takes dying daily. This flesh is wicked. We need the Holy Ghost to wash over us EVERY SINGLE DAY! Most days, more than once. Renew us, restore us and nourish our souls. So we can have good fruit, because only a good tree can bring forth good fruit That is why the devil fights our prayer life. Despite all the lies told on me my fruit spoke volumes. Because I was rooted in the Lord. I stood through some dark, evil, straight from hell stuff, and I made it for almost 3 years because I had that kinda prayer life. I was dedicated & consecrated to Jesus. I fought the right way. But the pain was almost unbearable, the trauma I endured over n over again caused me so much pain and that turned to bitterness, and in the end that is what got me. The pain is inevitable in our walk with God. What we do with that pain is our choice. I let the pain consume me. I quit going to Jesus about it because it seemed that He wasn't even listening. I was lied on, I was slandered to no end, I went through a darkness no mother would ever want to go through and the pain, O my the pain I went through destroyed my tree of good fruit. The relationship I had with Jesus was beautiful, I've never in my life been as close to Jesus as I was to Him in these last 3 years.. To this day I can't make sense of it still. But I know God's got it and it's not over till He says it's over. He's a merciful God. I thank Him everyday for His mercy. I got up again even when I didn't feel I was ready because Jesus came for me that night and He knew my heart. Regardless of it all.... He was working it all for my good & His glory! He knows our hearts. He knows the beginning from the end.Matthew 7:16-24 KJVYe shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? [17] Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. [18] A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. [19] Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. [20] Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. [21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. [22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? [23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. [24] Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:Jesus warns of false prophets to appear to do miraculous works by the power of God. True Believers Never follow miracles, but instead Miracles will follow True Believers (see Mark 16:17, 18)"I never knew you" shows that these never were true believers, but instead Charlatans, much like Simon the Sorcerer (see Acts 8:9-24). Not everyone professing Christ is genuinely saved. Even outward, verbal acknowledgment of His lordship is in itself not enough to save the believer apart from genuine, new-birth salvation (see Acts 2:38) a truly saved person is "whosoever heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them." Therefore.... these sayings of mine" refers to all that Jesus had taught during the Sermon on the Mount. His closing focused on the need not only to hear but also to obey his words.Matthew 7:6 KJVGive not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.Here Jesus provided an allegory for the teaching of truth. "That which is Holy" is the gospel and truth of scripture. "Dogs" and "Swine" considered to be unclean and Jewish tradition are the enemies of the gospel, not just unbelievers,. Such enemies should be avoided. (see 15:14; 2Cor.6:14-18)Matthew 7:13-14 KJVEnter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

I wrote this in 2021 going through one of the darkest storms I’ve ever went through. To all the mothers that are doing it alone…the ones who are leading spiritually where the man should be..this is for you!!!Happy Mothers Day.....To the single Holy Ghost filled momma who stands in the spiritual leader position of the home, that the man should be in for you and your children! I see you. I am you. I'm praying with and for you! Our battle is harder that is just the way it goes. But with God we got this! Our responsibilities as a mother never ends! This is our calling with or without the man as the spiritual leader!! Live your faith out loud!!Genesis 3:16 KJVUnto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.The biblical vision of a godly man leading his wife and children simply is not a reality in every house. God called and used my mother to be the primary spiritual shepherd in my life, and I am forever grateful to her. Help me to be that mother now that I am in that position too!!This Bible study is solely for us Holy Ghost filled mother's leading spiritually. My mother was one of these mommas and I thank God she was! Or I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank God she fell in love with Jesus and teaching us this truth! You have to truly fall in love with Jesus. I'm adding some of the statements from Rev R. L Williams message "momma made a difference" because that is one of the most powerful sermons I've heard on Mothers! Especially for us ones struggling to be the spiritual leader of the home too!Im preaching to some momma's that you don't even understand that every time you're faithful to the house of God you're building a place in your life that your babies will have a testimony from. When the testimony comes, the question is asked, What is it that inspired you to live for God the way you do? It's because I had a momma that built a place. The reason I'm even here is because I had a momma that built a place in her life for God's kingdom and when she did God brought me back because my momma made a difference. I'm preaching to some momma's that it may seem like you're the only thing that is standing for your family. It may seem like you're the only thing tryn to hold it all together, but I'm telling you right now God has given you the strength, God has given you the annointing, God has placed his hand on you and your babies and your house are being kept by your consecration your children are being held in place because it's momma that makes the difference. And when voices of hell come to you and say it's too hard, when the voices of hell come to you and say you might as well give up, and when the voices of hell come to you and say you can't do it by yourself. I declare unto you that is when you get on both of your feet and throw your hands in the air and declare to hell, you can't have my children!! Momma you're the difference maker!!! Don't you dare give up!! Don't you dare throw in the towel, don't you dare declare death over your child because IT SHALL BE WELL!!!!Pastor R. L. Williams"Momma made a difference"MODEL THE BEHAVIOR YOU DESIRELet your children see you reading the Bible, going to church, and praying. It’s so true that our kids will do as we do, not as we say. As I watch Aurora grow, she copies everything from me. And believe me she sees me praying and reading my Bible, listening to music n preaching every day! I was praying and cryn and singing earlier and she was recording me! I was jus lost in Jesus and spending time with Him. She was watching and recording me! Everything we do is crucial to their salvation and soul! The order of our home isn't the way God intended butHe made us mother's for a reason and one thing all mommas will say is "I'll fight hell for my baby!"I'll fast till I die, if I have to for my babies. I'll pray till my knees bleed over my babies. Satan get your hands off my child!! Momma will fight for him, Momma will protect him, she'll do whatever she has to do For tht baby!! Jus need a few mommas in the building to serve notice to hell this morning. "Get your hands off of my child, don't you even think about it, don't you even look at my babies. They don't belong to you. This child belongs to God. This child came from God!!!"-Pastor R. L. Williams -"Momma made a difference"The choice to become a mother is the choice to become one of the greatest spiritual teachers there is. To create an environment that's stimulating and nurturing, to pass on a sense of responsibility to another human being, to raise a child who understands that he or she is created from good and is capable of anything—I know for sure that few callings are more honorable. To play down mothering as small is to crack the very foundation on which greatness stands.-Oprah-Now add being the spiritual leader of the home to that! People are so busy judging Mothers like this they don't see the pain, they don't see the load and the burden you have weighing on you. I see you, I'm rooting for you. We can make it!! We will make it!!God is the head of us and He's bigger than the things that can tear us apart!!! Hold onto Him!!Matthew 19:26 KJVBut Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.God knows your situation before you ever brought it to his attention, God knows everything that is goin on before you ever get down to pray. You're not alone. You're not by yourself. You're not forgotten about. There is a God that sits high and looks low. There's a God that knows the ending from the beginning. And before you ever voice your request God sees you coming, God. Knows what's goin on!!-Pastor R. L. Williams -"Momma made a difference"PRAYER FOR THE MOM WHO DESIRES TO LEAD HER CHILDREN SPIRITUALLYDear God,I pray for the mom who’s struggling to be the spiritual leader in her home. Sometimes she feels inadequate to lead her children to you as she’s doing the job alone. Remind her, Jesus, that her job is to simply follow you so that her children have an example of Christ to follow. Please show her what it looks like to lead her children with their unique personalities, considering how each child responds to teaching differently2 Timothy 3:14-15 KJVBut continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them ; [15] And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.Life & death are in the power of your tongue and when you open up your mouth there is a manifestation of what you began to declare. Somethings gotta rise up in the mother of Zion, tht you can look at all hell breaking loose and say IT IS WELL!!-Pastor R. L. Williams -"Momma made a difference"You better be careful when you get in between a momma and her baby, when a baby is threatened something comes over momma!! I got 6 amens from the momma's in the hood 😆😆 the rest yall behaving yourself right now. Even in nature, one of the most dangerous positions you can find yourself in, is when you stumble up on bear cubs, cuz when you stumble up on bear cubs you're already in trouble. Because if there is bear cubs momma is close by. She don't ever let them babies get to far, and I promise you she saw you before you seen her. She saw you, she smelled you. Momma's have this instinct about danger and their babies. You might not understand it, you might not see it but momma can sense when something ain't right!! There is something about a mommas instinct!! Momma's will protect their babies. Momma's got a instinct that says, I'll search you out, I'll hunt you down, I'll go to the end of the earth for my babies!! There is no greater threat to hell over their influence on a child than a praying momma. There is nobody that will pray for their children like a momma, there is nobody that will get on their knees and war in the spirit over their children like a momma!! Hell you can't have my baby!!!!-Pastor R. L. Williams -"Momma made a difference"Our love, actions and devotion to raise our children in this truth is being honered. I believe one day God will put someone that will love us and our children unconditionally and lead us spiritually because 2 is better than one, but until then we just keep on praying, loving, leading, being an example to our children and keep them in this truth!! Because one day our efforts will payoff!! With Jesus we got this!! Happy Mother's Day!!3 John 1:4 KJVI have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.Proverbs 31:28Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.Happy Mothers Day!Be Blessed, Jesus is leading us!Sis Jenn Maddox

Beauty for pain.Beauty from these scars? Beauty from this pain? Beauty in the hurt? Beauty in the rain? Beauty in the war? Beauty in the fight? Beauty when I'm wrong but pain when I'm right?Beauty when I fall, yet pain when I rise. Beauty in the night, but tears when the sun does arise?Beauty in every hateful word that's been sown into who I am? Beauty in the abuse by so many men?Worthless shattered, broken and torn. Who I was became lost in the words of their lips, the blow of their hands, and the cold of their back always turned.Over and over this cycle I did repeat. The love I sought after, no man could ever meet. Even now, I fight the blows of this world. The lies of people who want to destroy.The truth still stands and it always will. The battle I fight I need only be still.How is there beauty in all of this pain I've been through? How do I fight when I'm bloody and bruised?I'll tell you how, I fight this bloody battle in beauty and Gods grace. The Lord is on my side and one day I'll see His face!I will lift my hands, I will cry aloud, I will kneel down humbly, to Him I'll bow. I will sing and praise His Holy Name. I will love Him always for I'll never be the same!!Every tear, every scar, every one that walked away. They had a purpose to lead me here. To my Savior, my Jesus who loves me and will always stay!When I'm down in this fight and I'm lonely and sad. When I can't make sense of whats happening or I'm angry or mad.As I lift my hands in the air and tears fall down my cheeks, the shaping and molding I feel, is making me so weak.But it's in that pain that a warrior will rise.It's in that pain and tribulation that all my strength lies."Hold on to me dear God, never let me go.As you take the pain of my life, mold it into whats beautiful to you as I grow."The pain has a purpose, we hear it all the time. Yet never understand as the pain fills our life.Jesus hung upon the cross that day, as pain overtook Him, before he hung his head and said "forgive them"But because of Him enduring the pain of that cruel cross, I can endure this pain that life has handed me, and all of the hurt, abuse & loss.So yes,Beauty is in the scars. Beauty is in the pain. Beauty is in the hurt. Beauty is in the rain. Beauty is in the war. Beauty is in the fight Beauty when I'm wrong. Beauty when I'm right. Beauty is the outcome because I choose to endure the night.Beauty He gives me as I take on His name. Beauty in a life turned around & changed.He took all that pain that tried to destroy me and gave me beauty & I'll never be the same!If you're hurting and bleeding please give it to Jesus ......Let him make beauty from all of your pain!!©Jenn MaddoxOct 17,2021
