FIA Good Morning

Your loved ones may be gone, but they are never forgotten. As long as you keep their memories alive, they will continue to be a blessing to all who hear and experience them! Tune in...

At all times we are to bless the Lord. And like David, His praise shall continually be in our mouths. We can, and should, still bless the Lord, even in our losses, and in our grief. Tune in for a Word from Job...

Wonder, if your loved ones would say exactly what Jesus says in Jn20? Do you ever think of what your loved ones would want? How they would want you to respond to their passing? Tune in, let's muse for a bit...

If you desire to be healed, He will give you the desires of your heart. And, it may not happen overnight, but it will happen - the more you pray and release those burdens this holiday season, the more He will draw near to you. Tune in...

Even though our loved ones have passed on, and they are in heaven with Him, they are at peace and in a better place, Jesus still understands the loss we feel and heartache we feel here on earth, especially this time of year. Tune in...

Do you ever pine for “the good old days”? You know the days of old where you had all you wanted and you could do what you wanted? Were they really the “good old days”, or were you really in bondage? The people of Israel forgot the truth. Perhaps you may be doing the same? Tune in.

How many times in your day would situations be diffused a lot faster if you listened more? How many heated fellowships with your spouse, or arguments with family members, would never actually escalate if we listened more? Let's see what James has to say about keeping anger at bay. Tune in!

Whatever you may be going through, whatever may be troubling your soul in this season, let today's cup be a reminder that you are intimately connected to the Prince of Peace. And, any time you need Him, you can call on His name, Jehovah Shalom. Tune in…

El Qanna means “LORD whose name is Jealous”. And, He is a jealous God, indeed! Do not place any gods of this world before Him. He has earned the right to be your God – your One and Only! Tune in.

Just like God came through for Abraham and Isaac on the top of Mt. Moriah, He will come through for you. Your Jehovah Jireh will indeed provide for whatever needs you have. Tune in for today's 5-minute cup of Jesus.

Rapha means “to restore”, "to heal" or "to make healthful". He told the people of Israel that He would be Jehovah Rapha to them – that He would be the God who heals them. He's made that same promise to you, through Christ. Tune in!

The name “Jehovah Nissi” means God who reveals Himself unceasingly as our banner. Often in battle, nations would fly their flag on the frontlines to give their soldiers hope and encouragement. Well, when the Lord is your banner, He gives you hope and encouragement in your personal battles. He is your victory! Tune in…

Here in the United States, we can freely worship Christ, declare His Word as true, and boldly share our faith in Him, but those same freedoms don't exist everywhere. Many are persecuted for their faith, some even unto death. But, Jesus says those who are persecuted are blessed. Tune in for why…

You are the light of the world, the salt of the earth. You bring light, not darkness. You bring peace, not strife. Love not hate. You (and I) should make this world a better place. How can you do that home? How can do that at work, at church? Tune in…

Jesus says blessed are those who are pure in heart – those with integrity, with morals, with godly character. Those who have the courage to do the right thing, to travel the straight and narrow, to be upright and walk the walk. Is that you today? Tune in…

Who can you show a little mercy to? Who in your life falls short, and you give them a hard time for it? Who in your life doesn't do right by you, and you are holding that against them? Let's look at the 5th beatitude in Jesus' list of qualities of the blessed. This cup is a little strong, but it's good for the soul. Tune in…

What do you think of when you see the word “righteousness”? Jesus says in the 4th beatitude that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness are blessed. What does that mean? What does it look like to hunger and thirst for it? Let's sip on this 5-minute cup…

People say that as a Christian you should be meek – not loud, not boisterous, not aggressive or even assertive – it's often paired with Jesus' scripture about turning the other cheek. But does that mean that we should be cowardly or spineless? Does it mean we should be quiet and give in easily? Not necessarily. Tune in to learn more about this Beatitude.

Jesus says in the Beatitudes, “Blessed are those who mourn”. What did He mean by that? Is this referring to those of us who grieve the pain and losses we experience in this world? Or was it something altogether different? Tune in for how Jesus was teaching us to BE.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit”. What does it mean to be “poor in spirit”? What does that look like in your everyday life? What are the benefits of being “poor in spirit”? Tune in for today's 5-minute cup of Jesus...

No matter what is lacking in your life, or how difficult things look in the natural, God is still worthy of your praise. Are you willing to give Him the highest praise today? Tune in!

It might look like evil people don't have a care in the world. It might look like they commit evil and then go on with their lives like everything is fine. But looks can be deceiving! You just can't see their struggle...tune in.

Have you lost faith for that particular thing in your life? You know that thing that you have been waiting for, praying for? Have you allowed doubt to creep in? Well, I want you to FIA up your faith today! It's time to re-commit your trust. Tune in…

When you see something strange today – when someone shows hate, or violence, when someone's words or actions don't quite agree with your spirit – remind yourself, you are a stranger in this land. This place is not your home. But, one thing will help you to make it through…tune in.

Be honest with yourself today…What would turn your heart from the Lord? Before you say “nothing would ever”, listen to Solomon's story. Like me, you just might find yourself in it…tune in.

Now that you are beginning to build the life of your dreams, you are walking out your abundance every day, you are not letting these challenges that life presents get the best of you, now what? What's the last "D" to feeling alive again? Tune in!

Today's cup is a warning. Because as soon as you begin to make changes and live the life you love, as soon as you start to feel alive again, the thief will come…tune in!

Do you take enough time for yourself? Do you spend time doing the things that light you up?! If not, why not? The life you imagine won't just happen. You have to be intentional about it...and you have to be intentional about it TODAY. Tune in!

Maybe like most you are feeling drained by this pandemic - you're tired of the fear, the masks, the vaccines, the rising cases. Maybe you are just feeling BLAH and you just want to feel renewed and refreshed. Perhaps you want to see some changes in your life. What would that look like? Tune in!

One year after my divorce, I was feeling heavy in my spirit. I was hurting, and broken, and had lost so much of me along the way. I couldn't find my joy. I couldn't find my peace and happiness. I woke up one morning and made a decision...tune in!

You can be offended – because let's just face it, some things are offensive – but you can't hold on to that offense forever. Jesus says agree with your adversary quickly. Tune in!

Sometimes we know the Lord through someone else. Maybe it's mama's faith, or grandma's faith that you benefit from. Maybe it's your pastor's prayers, or your spouse's Word that works for you. But what happens when that person goes away? Do you know Him for yourself? Tune in!

Intimacy is the act of being close, of being familiar. It's a closeness we achieve by being with someone, spending time with that person, by being emotionally open and vulnerable with that person. Learn today how to become intimate with the Lord...

Tired of fighting for that marriage? Tired of that job wearing you down? How about this pandemic - to be vaccinated or not to be? For whatever reason, your soul may be weak and weary from toiling. If so, let's see what God did for David's weary soul...

Whether you are a leader in the workplace, in your community, in the church, or in your home, if you can rally the troops and have them all moving in cadence toward a goal or vision, it is something to be admired. Harmony is majestic! Tune in...

When people "flip the script" – at first things are going great, and all of a sudden, things go left and people change – you stand on this truth and allow God to fight for you. Tune in!

With tears streaming down her face, my sister asked me, “Why?” Why would God allow this to happen? Why was our mother dying? How many times have you asked “why?” The hardest truth to receive when things go left is this one...tune in.

You may be hurting right now. Things may be confusing, frustrating and disappointing, but they will eventually work together for you. It's hard to see the silver lining when it's cloudy out, but no matter what is happening in your life, you can trust that in the end, they will work together for you. Tune in!

When you expected God to come through and the time has come and gone, and you haven't seen Him yet. That loved one is still sick, that marriage is still unhappy, that breakthrough still hasn't come through...when you thought things should have changed by now, wait on the Lord. Tune in...

Ever been disappointed by life? Ever expected things to happen a particular way, and they don't? Sometimes God does the exact opposite of what you expect. And, other times, life just doesn't fall in line, But, when things go left, you can count on God to be right there with you through it all. Tune in...

Ever find yourself wishing harm on the person who hurt you? You have to watch the state of your heart and the spite in your words. Tune in for what God warns in the Proverbs...

When we find ourselves in sin, or on the other side of a season of sin, it's hard to receive grace. We feel like we could never be blessed by God because of all we've done. But is that the truth? Tune in...

When you are mistreated and mishandled by people, or by life itself, don't get bitter, get better. In the end, it's all about your spiritual growth. Tune in...

Bitterness has a tendency to take up residence in your heart and stay there. But, why is it so imperative that you get rid of it? Let's look to Job for the answer. Tune in!

You cannot hold on to bitterness. Whether it's in your marriage, friendships, familial or professional relationships, if you expect to see fruit abound in your life, you have to cut it off at the root. Tune in...

Have you ever seen someone wrought with bitterness? What does bitterness look like exactly? Tune in for what to look for...and you may not have to look far. Join me!

Are you harboring bitterness toward someone? An ex? A parent? Sibling or other family member? Bitterness tends to hide itself deep within your heart. See to it, though, that you are not defiled by this stronghold. Tune in!

God will never lead you wrong. He will never tell you to do something that hurts or harms you. If we want to get to the place of healing and wholeness God has in store for us, we will have to humble ourselves and listen to Him. Tune in.

How many times do we get in our own way by trying to tell God how to do things? Whether it's based on our previous experiences, or something we've seen in someone else's life, we conjure up in our minds how things should be. "Shoulds" get us trouble! Tune in...

We tend to think that just because people have a leadership position they can do all the things, and they cannot. Just because someone is in power, doesn't mean they have ALL power. Tune in.

Be open to wisdom. You just never know who is going to deliver the wisdom that can completely change your life. Don't discount people because of their status in life because we all have something to offer. Tune in!
