Companionship:Needed or Necessary----Help Desk

It's nice to have company but every now in then, don't you just want to be by yourself. I found that when I wasn't married, I could lay before God and pray all night if I wanted too. Now, I have to be mindful of my husband's needs. So in reality, the cares of the single woman really should be centered around how she can please the Lord.

I know, everybody does want a little company every now and then. I know people who don't even like to sit on the toilet unless they're talking on the phone. So can you see how company can get in the way of meditation and prayer. It's those moments that you're all alone that you can really get a word in to God. I tell my members to take a bible in the bathroom. You're always searching for something to read while you're there. Why not take the time to read your word?

Now if you're going to be a companion to someone, please be a good companion. The bible says, "In order to gain friends, you must show yourself as a friend." There's nothing like good companionship. Good companionship is those folks who God has sent into your life; whether it's a husband, a guy friend, or a girl friend. Successful relationships are built upon love. So successful relationships are built on Christ; because Christ is Love.

Christmas Day Wisdom

Christmas was delightful. I learned a valuable lesson today.....my kids are almost grown and it's time to start letting go. I remember when they use to run to the Christmas tree to open presents, now they stay in bed until almost eleven and drag to the tree.

As I'd always hope that the true meaning of Christmas would be forever etched in their minds, I never thought that the valuable time we shared together on this day would be deminished. Then I thought, there was a time when I raced to my parent's house, now I'm just as happy sitting at home with my own family. Then, it struck me, one day they'll too have families of their own and coming to mom's might not be as important to them either.

So I prayed, God, thank you for the birth of your Son Jesus. I even thank you that He gave the example that those who loved You were His family. So, with this, I thank you for extended families because truly those who are in fellowship with you are my brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and fathers through you. Then I prayed, teach me how to let go of those near me. They are my children and I've done as you required....I brought them into this world, I taught them the importance of obedience, I taught them who You are and that they should love You with all of their hearts, I taught them to respect others, I taught them to love everybody, and most importantly, I gave them back to You.

So when they stop coming home, when the tree stop covering gifts, when the tree no longer goes up....I know that I am the tree. I was outside, and You saved me and brought me in. I was dark and Your light brighten me up. I am fully decorated, now in good deeds, but the glory belongs to You. I've beared my fruit, and it's time for them to branch out, and me to bear in other places. I cover no gifts, because I'm sharing my gift with the world.

"Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except ye abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me ye can do nothing." John 15:2-5

Special Holiday Message----Help Desk

With the economy like it is this year, many are really going to celebrate the season like it was meant to be celebrated. What do you mean? I believe that this is the first Christmas I've experienced in my life where it's going to be about the love you give to one another, and the celebration of the Risen Savior's Birth, instead of about how much money you spend on a gift. Some don't even have jobs right now, nevertheless, money to spend on gifts that sometimes are never worn or used.

So, to those who fall into this category...Don't feel bad! The Christmas Spirit is meant to be about love. Love doesn't cost you anything to give. I have always told my children that Christmas represents Jesus' birthday and not theirs. So, I made them tell Christ what they were giving Him in the year to come, I also allowed them to give gifts amongst themselves and then find something to give someone else. It didn't have to be expensive. It could be a picture they drew. Because truly I believe that if you give, it will be given unto you. Whether it's money, time, love, kindness, kind words, just give something. But remember first to give to Christ. Make a promise to give more of your time towards helping someone else. Make a vow to spend more time in worship. Now if you aren't going to stick to the vow, don't make it. It is better not to vow than to vow and don't do it.

Remember Christ lives in you. People see His light shining through you when you do what He would do, give like He gave, and love like He loved. Have a Happy, Spiritual, and Merry Christmas.

Be Blessed!

Has the world ever tried to catch you in it's grips, destroy you, and cause you guilt and shame?
Well, if it has here's some good news for you......Nothing matters except for who you've decided to be and become. It doesn't matter that you were almost tangled in a web of sin. It doesn't matter how enticing the stuff that almost took you in. All that matters is that you didn't allow the enemy to win.

Satan's main objection is to take God's daughters and get you caught up. Caught up in everything but the right thing. You have got to realize that greater is He who is on the inside of you than he that is in the world. No weapon ever formed against you shall prosper and every tongue that rises up against you in judgment shall be condemned. This is the assurance from God that no matter what people say about you, He knows you and He knows everything about you.

Be happy that you are who you are. Be excited that you overcame the enemy and sin by just deciding to say, "NO!" Fight to remain kept by God! Deny your flesh of worldly things. Remember whose you are and the authority that rest on you to defeat the enemy. Fight the enemy with the word of God. And be eternally, emotionally, and physically blessed.

The Good And Bad of Relationships----Help Desk

There are good and bad in every relationship. Remember that if you have someone who is not perfect that's fine.....no one is.

The things that you don't like, pray about them. Matthew 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."

Ladies, stop beating him over the head for what he doesn't do! Start complimenting him on the things that he does do. You'll find that there more you give sincere thanks, the more the things that seem to bother you will slowly fade away.

Men, start appreciating what she does. It's not enough for you to provide and pay the bills. She deserves a romantic dinner or just a simple, let's pray together. She'll become more excited about taking care of your needs when she feels appreciated!

Don't forget, there is no perfect mate. We all have imperfections, but it's our imperfections that keep us grounded and leveled.

Overcoming The Spirit Of Loneliness----Help Desk

Have you listened to today's pod cast brought to you by niapromotions.com?


Remember that loneliness is a spirit. The enemy attacks you with this spirit to first make you deny the presence of God. Then once you deny the presence of God, you no longer are cautious as to what you do to keep from being lonely......one night stands, sleeping around with different people, falling into demonic relationships, etc.


Remember once a demonic spirit takes control of your flesh and finds a place to reside, it often brings friends alone. So then that's why you start feeling depress after the one night stand, and other feelings began to bombard you.


Remember always Matthew 28:20. And to those who don't read the word, remember that you have friends and family that you must use as a support system. If you don't have friends and family, try getting to know the Lord.


David said in Psalm 68:6 says that "God sets the lonely in families,"


If you can't rely on your biological family, or you have no friends, find a local church; your church family can sometimes be that family you've always longed to have.


Be Blessed!

Holiday Hurts

I have been in this world for quit some time and I have seen a trend....right around the Holidays, people are hurt, burned out of their homes, and they loose loved ones. It almost seem like these days that should be the happiest are targeted to be the worst.

To those of you who are suffering during these times, I am praying for you. Remember that, "All things work together for good to those who love the Lord and are the called according to His purpose".

I know it might seem crazy or sound crazy but it's a fact. God will put no more on you than you can bare. And you can bare all things if you believe! My grandmother use to say, "All that don't kill you was meant to make you stronger". So, I'm passing it on to you. SURVIVE!

Though it might seem rough right now and you are in your night, remember day has to come. Night can't prevent day from coming just like the bad things that happen in your life can't prevent the good things from happening. And know this, the harder you suffer, the larger the blessing that's waiting on the other side. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Stand on His ability to make hurts fade away, to make hard times get lighter, to make pain disappear, and to turn your midnights into day.

Be Blessed,

In memory of Minister Linda Baldwin

Special Thanks

I would like to send out special thanks to all of you who listened in on blog talk radio with Shawneda Marks and myself. I pray that you were touched in some way or another. The show was only great if someone listening heard a word that will help in their present situation.
My daughter Raiyawna was so excited that mom was on. She said after the show that she just wanted other young ladies to know what I've taught her concerning sex before marriage. I'm so proud of her and you'd never know how great it makes me feel to have curved her and her sister from the things that I did. All I wanted was for my girls to know that their bodies are the temple for the Holy Spirit! Maybe you can take this approach instead of the "if you do it you could get pregnant" approach.
Many have survived through teen pregnancy and Raiyawna was the product of a pregnant seventeen year old. So, I knew that I couldn't sway her by saying you don't need to have sex because you could get pregnant. All she had to say was, "Mom I turned out good. I'm a average 4.2 student who's now majoring in Biology. I'm in college planning ..ing and you didn't even do that." So I went at it at a different angle. I told them that Christ (on the inside) gets disturbed when he crosses paths with all these different spirits being put in you by someone else. Might sound crazy, but it worked. Dobrielle (my other daughter) will be sixteen on January 3rd, and she's still a virgin.
All you have to do is love your girls!!!!!! We must love them enough to keep them from going through all the heartache we went through. We must love them enough to give them back to the Lord, so that He can work a work in them that will eventually shine through them.
Again, I thank you for sharing in the blog talk show with me last night. I truly thank God for Shawneda Marks and as you start your day, those of you who know the words of prayer (the prayers of the righteous availeth much), pray that her show grows and goes to the next level.
Be blessed, Danyelle

Sweetness In My Soul

There's a sweetness in my soul,
A feeling I can't control.
A longing down so deep
That sometimes it makes me weep.
Makes me want to love my friends
Makes me fight on til the end
There's a sweetness in my soul
I sware it's love that makes me whole.

Get Ready

Danyelle is up and going!
