Ecclesiastes 9:11 (KJV)”I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.”
Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Just praising God that we have made it this far by faith.
Today marks 50 days of our Pecking Orders directly from Bishop T.D. Jakes, and I’m excited about what these next 2 days are going to bring. We expect positive changes for our lives. We have truly been blessed these past 50 days and look forward to breaking into dreams of lifetime. I don’t know about you, but we have no desires to turn around now… My shell broke long ago on this journey, and I feel a great sense of maturity. This chick is about her Father’s business and ready to go!!!! 🙂
Before you run, realize that it is usually the easy way out! Your new journey takes COURAGE! If you’re always running away from your problems, you will never mature into the person God designed you to be. Maturity requires that you know how to discern and decide when to run and when to figure out how to make something work. Be COURAGEOUS enough to stand firm and no longer make flight your customary response.
“At Woman Thou Art Loosed, I preached a message titled “The Pecking Order”. If you missed it, get your hands on a copy or download the MP3 from our site. During the conference God also moved me to share one of my breakthrough scriptures — Luke 2:52 “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.”
For the next 52 Days, beginning tomorrow, we’re going to meet in the Spirit via social media. I’m going to be giving you “Pecking Orders” to help unlock FAVOR and POTENTIAL in your life and coach you into your destiny. Some of these orders will be spiritual…others will be natural, concerning issues like credit, debt, and leadership.
I’m challenging you to have 52 days of undistracted devotion with God. Get up early and give God the first fruits of your day. Have private devotion time. Meditate over Luke 2:52 and pray “Lord, Make me increase in wisdom and stature and favor…” Then, read your pecking orders for the day and believe God for a shift in your life. I want to pray for you as we embark on this journey!”
Greeting to all of our WIFI Subscribers, visitors, family and Friends… Happy Saturday to you all.. I have enclosed day number 20 of Pecking orders from Bishop T.D. Jakes.. Whatever you do, keep pressing and pecking your way…
BEFORE you can fully lead, you must withstand controversy and conflict.
a. Leaders tend to be controversial.
b. Leaders’ decisions create conflict.
c. Leaders are persons of commitment.
d. Leaders are guided by their character.
Be COURAGEOUS and accept the leadership responsibility of being controversial. You are not POSITIONED to make everyone like you! That’s God’s job. It’s called FAVOR…and…It ain’t fair!

Here is a recap from The Potter’s House of Dallas, last sunday Oct 21, 2012. Join us for live service online at 9am CST at http://www.tdjakes.org/watchnow/
Happy Monday to you all.. I often listen to a lot Marvin Sapp’s motivational music, and one of my favorite songs he recorded entitled “My Testimony“… I’m so glad I made it!” Yes indeed, I’m so glad that we all made it to see this beautiful day that the Lord has made, and we shall rejoice and be glad in it..
We are truly thankful today for Jesus, and all of his wonderful creations. We are truly thankful for the people he has sent to impart knowledge into our lives. I must stop right here and right now and say Thank you to our Bishop T.D. Jakes… These past few weeks have been so phenomenal and life changing for hundreds of thousands (+) that got the chance to either attend (#WTAL) Women Thou Art Loosed Conference live, via the Internet with all access , or the opportunity to view some of our notes we were posting on the different social networking sites… Our souls were truly blessed, and the good part is, that it did not stop there… He decided to give us 52 more days of Pecking Orders which I have labeled as “goodness” that I truly believe will follow you for the rest of your life.. We must say that this WTAL experience was way more than an ordinary ride…It was a life changing experience that allowing you to develop a deeper relationship with God, and in turn we are developing our character, enhancing our wisdom and extending our internal knowledge. I pause to show my gratitude of thanks and want him to know how much we appreciate him to take the time to give us a plan and information to make our lives and future better.. Just when the devil had you thinking on the side of your mind that no one cares, here comes along the Man-of-God to prove some of us wrong.. There are people that do care, and just want to see you do good… Stick with those type of people that uplift your spirit.. We are aware that “LOVE comes in all forms, and sometimes every aspect of love has to used to get through to some of us.. Sometimes we need that tough love, and other times we just need a refresher to remind us how great we all can be, especially when we put our trust in the all mighty God, Jesus!!!!
In this new season, God will EXPOSE you to brand new things and people. However, do not get caught up in looking at the outside of a person, relationship or situation! These things do not always reflect what is on the inside. Jesus said about the Pharisees that “outside” they were clean, but “inside” they were full of dead men’s bones (Matthew 23:27). Ask God for His wisdom and KNOWLEDGE as you navigate new territory and people!
This is an awesome ministry to sow into.. Bishop tell us all the time,to “bless those that are feeding you good spiritual food”.. It’s just another way to say thank you, I love what you do and I appreciate you… Yes we do!!!! I pray that God continues to bless us to get in a position so we can be a blessing to someone else… Never hold on to what you can share and make multiply… My Dad, which was my Pastor for many years taught us that you cannot afford not to give.. You must always give and plant seeds to grow a harvest.. I truly believe that it costs more in the long run when you don’t give unto God.. When we cheat God, we are only cheating ourselves.. Try him at his word and help do your part that this precious Gospel continues to get shared throughout the universe.. ~ Minister Ev

You’ve got to get involved! Make the decision! Before anything will change, you must decide YOU want to change! You must decide to yield to God’s will and allow Him to POSITION you where you need to be before the next shifting occurs! But, change is not easy. It requires COURAGE! In the terrifying, soul-tingling feelings of the vertigo of change, we learn the value of faith and the fuel of prayer.

Happy Thursday to each of you… I pray that you all are enjoying these past 11 days of pecking orders like we are… Yes, we have made it to the 11th Pecking Order.. Let’s learn that taking responsibility for our own mistakes is a major step toward success.. Be strong and be courageous and remember to ask questions on this journey called life.. I tell you, I feel success in our future.. As the Bishop is going to say: “Keep Pecking!”
Blame is a learned behavior that you can unlearn, but it takes COURAGE to move on from the familiarity of past mistakes and methods! Develop a strategy that focuses on where you’re going and what God is saying will happen. Philippians 3:13-14 describes the outlook we should have: “I do not consider myself to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” Instead of spending energy on blame, move into the future and begin visualizing what success and victory look like.
Keep pecking…
Courage is referred as bravery, boldness, fearlessness, mettle, fortitude, or intrepidity) is the ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation.
Philippians 4:13 (ESV): “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”
Matthew 6:25-33 (ESV): “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”
James 4:10 (ESV): “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.”
Psalm 37:4 (ESV): “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
