Tanzy Alexis Said It!

So I took a short break to finish out my path of consecration last week. I embarked upon a 21 day FAST with my supervisor and her church. The fast was to be considered a RESET for our spirits and LORD KNOWS I needed one. I decided I would DENY food from sun up to sun down. (6am-6pm) TALK ABOUT THE STRUGGLE .

That SOUL TIE might I add. had me so WRAPPED UP AND BOUND it wasn’t even funny yo! Then even after I was delivered, I found that I had scars, unhealed rope burns, and bruises on my spirit and they all were trac

I'm in an ON GUARD mode right now. Like you know how the U.S. was on high alert after the bombing in Boston? Yeah that's what I'm on ...HIGH ALERT ! When it comes to the devil, I'm not playing with him. He ain't never gone be a friend of mine! BOOM! But check this out, this is how you and I have to be at ALL TIMES! Why?                                            1 Peter 5:8 Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would like nothing better than to catch you napping . Keep your guard up. You see the piece of scripture highlighted in purple? THIS IS WHY YOU NEED TO BE ON HIGH ALERT ALL THE TIME! DON'T LET THE DEVIL CATCH YOU LACKIN"! What does it mean to be caught LACKIN'? Actually this scripture above defined it for us. To be caught lackin'simply means, NAPPING , falling asleep at the wheel, being UNCAUTIOUS AND UNAWARE! You know I have noticed in my own walk, that the devil tends to mess with me at
