“You’re More Than a Summer” by Dr.J.

You Are More Than a Summer by Dr.J.4.12.14
You’re a Four Seasons Woman, not a summer fling. You are a year around, every year kinda thing. Don’t believe those lies about your summer self. You’re a Four Seasons Woman.

You are Fall. Your vibrant hues of reds and oranges are balanced by shades of the earth. As your leaves temporarily vanish, you anticipate the new growth that manifests itself in your future season. You can tone down the hottest heat for the warmest warmth. Your Fall makes your elevation even sweeter, your testimony even stronger. You are more than just a summer fling. You’re a Four Seasons Woman, a year around every year kinda thing.

You are Winter, a coolant so necessary when life’s circumstances and situations are ablazed with disappointments and hurt. Your ice freezes the blistering weapons of the enemy instantaneously. Your coldest disposition evokes the comfort of a blanket, a fireplace, an extended embrace. Your chill is so laid back it’s unreal.

You are Spring, a season that melts the ice away. You are stuck between cold and hot, but tepid you are NOT. The birds are singing because of your springy Spirit. Your new leaves forming, your buds sprouting-Your season of growth integral in your cycles of seasons. Your Spring has sprung into a perpetual season of prosperity. 

Yes, you are summer too but summer isn’t all of you. You are passionate, but even more compassionate. You are fun but you are even more favored. You can win the most heated philosophical debates but you are boiling with God’s wisdom. Your summer spirit sears through the coldest of hearts. Your scorching desire to please God is the core of your sizzling summer.

Whoever told you you were just a summer and whose summation was that you are only a vacation, a get away, a go to spot for getting hot…well, they lied. You are more than just a summer fling. You are everything. You’re a Four Seasons Woman. Dr.J.4.12.14

Fasting

“A Family that Fasts Together, Stays Together” by Dr.J.

If a family that prays together stays together, what happens to a family that fasts together?
We need to go beyond family prayer and begin to fast this season for the entire family to move into their new thing. God is doing something new for you and everyone connected with you. God is waiting on us to believe Him for more. 

We can ask God “why hasn’t anything supernatural happened for my family? Why haven’t we been able to break generational curses of addiction, adultery, or poverty?” Jesus’ answer, “how long have you suffered with these issues? Some things only come by fasting and praying.” 

A family that fasts together builds spiritual capacity for the following:

1) to break generational curses off the family;  

2) to break strongholds off individual and collective family members; 

3) to move Jesus to act more quickly on the behalf of individual and collective family members; 

4) to begin to see manifestation of the work of God in your children and plants seeds for your children’s children;

5) to usher in and stands in agreement and believes God for generational blessings, wealth, prosperity, land and favor for individual and collective family members; and

6) to renounce, denounce, and rebuke any Jezebel, marine, and all other demonic spirits and curses off of individual and collective family members.

Fast and have faith for more for your family this season. Dr.J.
