Don’t Know What to Do?

Let God light up the way. He wants to help you…through the direction of His Word. God’s Word is what will show you His perfect plan for your life. I know that might seem like, “Duh Courtnaye!” But really listen to what’s being said here.

Working Together in the Body of Christ

I want to start this post by asking you a question. Do you know your place in the body of Christ? Meaning, where you’re called to serve?

Let God Fight This Battle

Ever heard that your weapons of warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds? That’s actually a Scripture found in 2 Corinthians 10:4. Meaning that as you draw closer to God and do what He has called you to do, you will experience spiritual warfare. Opposition will come. People will come against you. Tough circumstances will pop up without much notice. Yet, when these inevitable things happen, and when you feel like you just can’t fight your battles on [...]
