"What I Take Away From Our Women On Fire Empowerment Conference..."

It's funny how things turn out for you sometimes. At first I wasn't that committed to be on a three-day women's conference. I was just doing it for my mom & my sisters' sake. I thought that since I've heard so many famous women that preached empowerment all these years, then why should this one any different? And I don't need one anymore. But the holy spirit has convicted my thoughts...I knew I spoke so soon & I was wrong.Because later, the benefits that I reaped during and after the conference is, "I'm Better Now."
 I've been listening to Joyce Meyers, Paula White, Beth Moore & etc. on t.v.; and read their books, too--Pride may have been a stronghold that simmers the importance of my fellowship with women of the same faith. I don't know where that seed of doubt in me sprung. But I know that the spirit of the Lord is more powerful in me than any principality of darkness. 

All of the women speakers had ignited faith, inspired hope, instilled virtue in their message. Each of these women may have had come from different cultural, educational background & spiritual experiences--however, one very thing they have in common is their unquenchable fire on empowering women from their plight through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

I love the culmination of events today which is the last day of the women's conference. Praise & worship was very moving. There was instant physical healing; hearts total surrender to God for the first time was inspiring to witness;, tears flowing because broken spiritual shackles were made free; saw lot of praying on their knees that may have opened the windows of grace in heaven--all of which had led to the in-filling of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of the speaking in tongues. Beautiful, glorious atmosphere. God has poured out a river that never runs dry in our hearts. More rain should be coming soon, if only we believe.

I simply take the joy of my heart's strongly reaffirmed that the way to focus on what's before us is certainly cutting off some thorny people in the past as well as present and their memories in our life. And to do that, ask God to show you how...After all, "women are not a one-time wonder but a "forever wonder" to those who know her heart.  There is no need to be feeling defeated, depressed or lonely. I think that when you discover that you're worthy and so much more, you invite the right kind of people to be in your life; the ones that will build you up and put a smile on your face; the ones that know how to lead your walk closer to God...
