The Power of Prayer

For the bible says that will prayer let your request be made unto the Lord and that the effectual prayers of the righteous achieve much.

There is indeed pure power on the pit of your prayer. Prayer was given to us by our Father so that we could have a direct line of communication to commune with him. Prayer goes across denominations, racial lines and geographical regions to meet the need of the person giving intercession. Prayer can go where your phone can't reach, where your car can't drive. Prayer can do what your money can't and your influence won't. Prayer is the supernatural weapon functioning out of the will and submission of our supernatural spirits, through our natural vessels, to bring about a supernatural change from the spirit realm which effects and initiates change in the natural.

Prayer isn't just a ritualistic thing that religious people do. Prayer is your life line, your survival kit, it's your first-aid. Many of us only use it when we find ourselves in life threatening and freedom taking situations. We only use prayer as a way to petition God for something when we are in need ,but prayer is so much more than a means of petioning or requesting a blessing. Prayer to God is equivalent to a facebook status, a tweet, a text message, a phone call or an email, it is a way for you and I to talk to our Father and tell Him all about what's been going on and to also find out what's going on in His realm as well.

Prayer, when it's done right, and effectively, has the power to transform, recreate, reform and renew any person, place or thing. Prayer is the power behind your protection, your purpose, your prosperity and your power. It was prayer that gave Jesus the extra strength to make it to the cross, it was prayer that allowed God to go into the fiery furnace with the three Hebrew boys, it was prayer that set Paul and Silas free. It was prayer from the mouth of the Prophet Elijah that shut and opened the heavens from raining. It was prayer that covered the houses of the children of Israel when the angel of death came by on it's mission.

Prayer is so powerful and potent that the disciples asked Jesus how do we prayer and His response was simple but yet it has been taken out of context. When Jesus replied with the Lord's Prayer His plan wasn't for us to memorize the words verbatim but to understand the strategy behind each word. The disciples asked HOW TO PRAY, NOT WHAT TO PRAY.......

The revelation behind that is to first give thanks and honor to God your Father, praise and worship Him for who He is to you, then ask for grace and mercy and forgiveness of what you have done against His will, then make your request be made according to the will of God which means you pray with the power of His will and Word behind you because the enemy doesn't run or retreat based upon your words but he recognizes the words of the Living God.  For the bible says that when the enemy comes in like a flood the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him. The Spirit of the Lord is His Word. Lastly seal it, stamp it and mail it in the name of Jesus for Jesus said whatsoever you ask in My name my Father in heaven is just to honor it.

The bible teaches us that the power of life and death are in the tongue and that's because the power of prayer lies in your tongue. All the power you need to defeat the enemy is already in you. Your anointing is activated by the words you speak, God told Ezekiel to speak to the dry bones and once he spoke they were revived.

So my brothers and sisters your answers to your prayers are ironically in your prayers!!!!!

The Power to be Pre-Destined!!!!

Jeremiah 1:5 states: Before I formed thee in thy mother's womb I predestined or foreknew you and before you were born I separated you, consecrated and appointed you to be a prophet to the nations. 

These words of the Lord was spoken to the young but anointed prophet Jeremiah. God spoke these words to the prophet to encourage him in his time of disbelief of his calling. Jeremiah was young, unlearned and he felt that he wasn't ready or worthy to be a prophet to the nations and God spoke these words to empower the prophet to walk in his calling.

For this same purpose, I have been commissioned to help you gain the confidence and authority to walk in your calling in spite of your perceived shortcomings. Let me start by being transparent. I just recently released my new book, "Tears of Deliverance". Prior to the release God showed me how successful the book will be and how He will utilize that success to bring change to this hurting nation. So a few days ago my publisher informed me that I had only sold 6 copies. Immediately my heart dropped, my spirit fell and my mind began to think that maybe because of my struggle with doing the right things I have missed what God had promised or I was unworthy of the success that was promised. I began to think that because of who I was it was making the promised of God invalid. 

I walked in this way of thinking for weeks, feeling defeated and depressed. Then finally I heard God speak in my spirit and He told me that I was predestined for greatness. He said that when He called me into salvation and deliverance He foreknew me and that He has called me and equipped me to be who He has called me to be. 

See my friend regardless of your flaws your future has already been created. To be predestined means that before you were created your destiny, your purpose and your place in life was created first so that nothing you do after your birth could destroy what you were destined to become. That's why the bible says that ALL things work together for the good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. See God is not a man that He should lie and neither is He son of man that He shall repent and whatever He said shall come to pass because He is creativity, He is existence, His essence is reality.

So when God called you to be successful, to be a prophet, a minister, a teacher, an author, an artist, a entertainer, a business owner He created the position, the finances, the institutions and etc before He created you. He created these things first because He knew He would create you in such a unique way that you are the only person to occupy that position. Let me back this us with scripture. The bible says in the book of Genesis that AFTER God created the earth, and the oceans and all the animals and living things, He then created man and then gave man dominion over ALL the earth and the living things. See God created man's destiny which is dominion over the earth and all living things before He created man. He created Man in such a unique way that only man has the power and purpose to operate in destiny of dominion. 

Another example of this is at the fall of man God went into the future and created the purpose and position of Jesus Christ. He created all the people, places and things that were needed to birth out Jesus into His destiny. He created Mary and Joseph, Elizabeth (John the Baptist's mother) and the inn keeper 3 wise men and King Herod. Because all these people were a key part of Jesus's destiny they all were created before Jesus was conceived in Mary's womb. Jesus was uniquely formed in human flesh to fit in His destiny in such a unique way that He alone was only able to access this position of purpose. 

With this revelation we can boldly walk in the power of being pre-destined. The fact that you struggle with sexual sin, homosexuality, drugs, alcohols doesn't mean your future is destroyed, it doesn't mean you are invalidating your destiny. It's the exact opposite. You are becoming purposed and chosen to occupy your position of purpose. Your struggles are systematically teaching you Godly characteristics to occupy your Godly destiny.  You can't legally operate in an area unless you have mastered or conquered that area. While Jesus was on earth the bible says that He was tempted in all areas of sin so that through Him we have power over sin and it's temptations. Because he conquered death, hell and the grave He now has power over death, hell and the grave. Your bible says that He went down to hell and ministered to the lost souls and took back the keys to death, hell and the grave giving him authority over each entity. 

So your situations as you conquer them you gain access of authority to those situations. See you couldn't minister to a sexually broken person if you have not been sexually broken. You couldn't minister to a drug addict, if you have never been addicted. You couldn't encourage and provide hope for a person struggling with poverty if you have never been broke. 

All our struggles are strategically setting us up to operate effectively in our predestined positions. So now I am not concerned about book sales and yes I have my struggles and yes sometimes I defeat temptation and sometimes it defeats me but I never give up, I keep getting back up and I keep allowing my mistakes to mold me into the person that God has predestined me to be.

The Faithfulness of God

" God is not a man that He shall lie, neither is He son of man that he shall repent"

I heard this scripture repeated so much in my life but it never really made since to me until I began to see and understand the faithfulness of God. See often times in life we have been conditioned to think that no one can be trusted and no can be counted on and expected to keep their word. So it makes it hard for us to completely trust and believe God for what he spoke over our lives because we hold God to the same law we hold man based upon our past events.

We are so used to people lying and using us that when God speaks it's difficult for us to operate out of faith and believe what He said because our conditioned flesh tells us we need to protect ourselves and just do what we have to do to make sure we are ok.

I have learned that the hardest requirement on the christian journey is trusting God and believing in His faithfulness. For so long I struggled with many addiction such as homosexuality, masturbation and etc. And I remember after I allowed God to save my soul he spoke to me through a vision. I had a dream that I was sitting on Oprah's stage being interviewed by her about the best selling book I had written, and in the dream the book she held in her had was called "Tears of Deliverance", in the audience I saw my wife and I heard her speak about our ministry and our children. At this moment in my life I was still sexually involved with guys and my self esteem was so low that I couldn't imagine that this vision was factual or it would come to pass. I mean I was no where near of becoming the man I saw in the vision. 

Then God showed me the scripture from the prophet Habakkuk that read, "write the vision and make it plain, so that he that read it may run with it, tho it tarries, in due season it shall come to pass". It was so hard for me to trust God and believe Him when He said He would deliver me and set me free. It was hard receiving a dream that showed me out of the bondage of homosexuality. It was hard believing that one day I would be free from the chains of abuse and child hood molestation. 

For the first time in my life I was challenged with believing God for what He said versus believing what I saw...as time went on God began to show himself faithful in my life by answering small prayers and then answering prayers that required a little more faith than others. I then began to believe God for his faithfulness. I began to expect God to move on my behave, I started operating out of a level of faith that literally changed my atmosphere. In the midst of this I was still struggling with homosexuality and that dream that God had given me still was stuck on replay in my mind and my spirit. 

Right when I was just about to give up on being delivered from homosexuality, I remember having a sexual encounter with my cousin and the conviction and shame that I felt afterwards sent me into this state of weaping and sobbing. I remembered getting out some paper and I wrote, " Oh that my head maybe a spring of water and my eyes a fountain of tears, I will weep, mourn, cry and lament for our sins we must repent" This scripture from the book of Jeremiah continually rose up in my spirit and as I began to write my feelings and emotions down on paper, when I was done I had written the first part of the first chapter in my book. 

At that moment I remembered the vision, I remembered the promise and then I gained a revelation on why God gave me the vision when I was sooooo far away from the manifestation and it was so I could have the strength to keep fighting in the midst of the storms, in the midst of the mistakes. He gave me the knowledge I needed to keep from perishing in the battle. That was back in 2003 and now it is pre 2012 and my book entitled, "Tears of Deliverance" have been released. I have been delivered and set free from the bondage of sexual sin, homosexuality, masturbation and etc. I have been healed from the hurts of childhood molestation and it has all been because of the faithfulness of God.

God has done just what He said He would do. He told me I would tell my story to the nations to bring about a change in people lives who have struggled and is struggling just as I was. God promised to heal, deliver and set me free and because of His faithfulness it is done.

It has nothing to do with who we are or what we do but it has everything to do with who God is. So I don;t care what it is you have been believing God for you better be expecting it to happen. Because God is not a respect a person, if He made it happen for me, it will definetly make it happen for you. Just trust God, don't give up on God because He hasn't gave up on you and know that our God is more than able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all we can ask or think. Now write your vision and make it plain, so he that read it may run with it and though it tarries, wait for it, for in due season it shall come to pass and that is what thus sayeth the Lord!!!!!!

Tears of Deliverance: From Homosexuality to Holiness


As I sit here scared, nervous and partially ashamed all I can think about is how God is going to use this book to unlock your deliverance and release the blueprint to your destiny just as He has done for me. I know you may be wondering whether or not this is just another inspirational authored just for monetary purposes only. 

But I am here to tell you that my goals are not sales but salvation. My goals are not royalties but resurrection, restoration and relationship. This book is God’s instrument of Glory. This book was birthed out because God heard your prayers just like He heard the prayers of the children of Israel and He sent them Moses. He saw your tears. He has heard your cries. Now He has sent you a rhema word tailor made for you and your situation. This book was not created for a price but for a purpose and one of those purposes is to give you access to the deepest most darkest parts of my life so you can know that you are not alone. I feel your pain, I feel your insecurities, I feel your abuse, I feel your struggles and afflictions, and I to have carried your burdens. 

So I charge you to take this journey with me and to allow the words of this book to redefine the definition of your tears. Let this book transform your tears of hurt and your tears of pain into your Tears of Deliverance. This book is not designed to condemn but rather to convince you that God loves you and that He has made available the power you need to be delivered.  You just have to tap into and then walk in it. I know it’s been a lonely road, and the church has isolated you and society has labeled and scorned you. But God never gave up on you, for the bible teaches us that nothing can separate us from the love of God. 

You are NOT an abomination, you are NOT a lost cause, you are NOT the reason why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorra but YOU are the reason why God sent his only begotten Son to die upon the cross and to be rose on the third day. He created salvation for YOU; he orchestrated grace and mercy for YOU. So come boldly to his throne and lay at his feet.  Come with me on this walk.  Open up your mind, heart and soul and allow the blood of the lamb and the power of this testimony transform you into more than a conqueror.



This book depicts the power and love of God working in a miraculous way to bring about a change and to heal the brokenness I felt as a result of being sexually and physically abused as a child...
