You Are Worth More Than Rubies:

A Message for Women on International Women’s Day

Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate you—the woman who nurtures, builds, creates, leads, and loves with a strength that only God could have placed within you. You are valuable beyond measure, worthy beyond words, and loved beyond comprehension.

You Are Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

In a world that often tries to define your worth by appearance, accomplishments, or approval, God has already declared your worth immeasurable. Psalm 139:14 says:

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

You were created with intentionality—crafted by the hands of the Almighty, woven with divine purpose, and placed in this world for such a time as this (Esther 4:14).

You Are Chosen and Called

God sees beyond the titles, the struggles, and the expectations the world places on you. He calls you His daughter, His beloved, and a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9). No matter your past, present, or future, you have a calling that only you can fulfill.

You may wear many hats—mother, wife, sister, friend, leader, entrepreneur—but your greatest identity is in Christ. You are chosen. You are enough. You are empowered to make an impact.

You Carry Strength and Dignity

The Proverbs 31 woman is often seen as the ideal standard, but what makes her powerful is not just what she does, but who she is:

She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. – Proverbs 31:25

You, too, are clothed with strength and dignity—not because of perfection, but because of God’s grace. He equips you to stand firm in faith, to rise when you fall, and to walk boldly in purpose.

You Are More Precious Than Rubies

Society may try to measure worth in beauty, productivity, or status, but God says:

“She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.” – Proverbs 3:15

Your value is not earned—it is God-given. You do not have to prove yourself to be worthy of love, respect, or purpose. You already are.

An Encouragement for Every Woman

Today, I want to remind you:

You are seen. God knows your heart, your dreams, and your struggles.
You are loved. His love is unwavering, unconditional, and unshakable.
You are enough. Not because of what you do, but because of who you are in Him.
You are capable. You were made for impact, and God has placed gifts within you for His glory.

As we celebrate International Women’s Day, may you walk in confidence, embrace your purpose, and remember: you are a woman of worth—valuable, loved, and chosen by God.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💜✨

Stepping Into the New: Redesigning Our Lives with Heavenly Innovation

Hello, beloved friends, it’s Dr. Carla! As we emerge from this incredible season of transformation, I feel an overwhelming sense of anticipation for what lies ahead. We are standing at the threshold of something new, something fresh, and it’s not just a new chapter—it’s a whole new volume of our story, written by the hands of the Creator.

We’ve come so far, haven’t we? The road of transformation wasn’t always easy, but it has been powerful. We’ve faced moments of challenge and reflection, embracing the changes that GOD has brought into our hearts, minds, and spirits. We’ve allowed The HOLY SPIRIT to renew us, stripping away the old and making space for the new. But now, as we look toward the future, we see the opportunity to do more than simply walk forward—we have the chance to redesign and recreate our lives, our families, our businesses, and our world with heavenly innovation.

Where We’ve Been: A Journey of Deep Transformation

In the months that have led us here, we’ve intentionally allowed GOD to reshape us. We’ve sought His guidance, leaned on His promises, and confronted areas in our lives that needed healing. Our spirits have been revived, and our minds have been renewed. We’ve discovered that true transformation doesn’t just touch the surface; it goes deep, reaching into our very core, bringing about a shift that only The HOLY SPIRIT can make.

Romans 12:2 tells us, Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what GOD’s will is—his good, pleasing, and perfect will for your life. And this transformation, this renewal, has been preparing us for what comes next.

Entering the Next: Redesigning with Heavenly Innovation

As we step into this next season, we’re not just moving forward; we’re entering a new realm of possibility—one where divine creativity and GOD-given imagination are at the forefront. With The HOLY SPIRIT’s renewal, we are empowered to think differently, to dream bigger, and to innovate in ways that align with GOD’s heavenly plans for us.

GOD is the ultimate Creator, and as His children, we are made in His image. We are co-creators with Him, designed to bring forth life, hope, and purpose into the world around us. Now, it’s time to use our Godly imagination to redesign our lives. It’s time to think beyond what we’ve known and allow the Spirit to guide us into new visions of success, fulfillment, and influence.

What Does This Look Like?

  1. Redesigning Our Lives: We are not bound by our past mistakes or limitations. With renewed minds, we can see ourselves as GOD sees us—whole, purposeful, and capable of achieving all that He has called us to do. If there’s an area of your life where you feel stuck or stagnant, now is the time to allow GOD to breathe fresh vision into it. Step into the new with faith and confidence.
  2. Redesigning Our Families: GOD’s design for family is one of unity, love, and strength. As we move into this new season, let’s look at how we can reshape our family dynamics. How can we lead with love and understanding? How can we create environments where everyone can thrive and grow together in the purpose of GOD?
  3. Redesigning Our Businesses: This is the time for innovation. With the guidance of The HOLY SPIRIT, we can rethink how we operate in our businesses, creating solutions that not only provide for us but also serve others. Let’s move away from old patterns and embrace new ideas that honor GOD and serve our communities.
  4. Redesigning Our World: The world around us is in need of restoration, and we have a role to play. Our transformed lives have the power to influence and impact the world in ways we may not yet fully understand. As we allow GOD’s creativity to flow through us, we can bring about positive change in our workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities.

Empowered by The HOLY SPIRIT

Through it all, we are not walking this journey alone. We are empowered by The HOLY SPIRIT, who is guiding us, filling us with divine creativity, and giving us the wisdom and strength to bring about this change. Philippians 2:13 reminds us, For it is GOD who works in you and I to will and to act in order to fulfill His good purpose us. Our lives are not just about surviving—they are about thriving, creating, and innovating according to GOD’s plan.

Moving Forward with Expectancy

As we embrace this next season of life, let’s do so with hearts full of expectancy. GOD is doing something new in us and through us. It may feel unfamiliar, but it is precisely where we are meant to be. The transformation we’ve experienced has positioned us for the greatness that lies ahead. Let’s allow The HOLY SPIRIT to continue renewing and empowering us to redesign our futures with boldness, creativity, and purpose.

So, let’s take this moment, right here and now, to step fully into the new. Let’s trust in GOD’s ability to innovate, create, and transform our lives in ways that reflect His goodness, glory, and grace.

With faith and excitement for the future,
Dr. Carla The FAITH Coach 🌿💫

Stand Strong in the Spirit of the Lord: An Encouragement for Believers Facing Spiritual Warfare

Dear Beloved in Christ,

In the face of spiritual warfare, it is vital for us to remember that we are not alone. The Spirit of the LORD is our strength and refuge, empowering us to stand firm against the schemes of the enemy. Here are some encouraging truths to hold onto when you find yourself in the midst of spiritual battles:

1. You are Empowered by the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit dwells within every believer, providing guidance, strength, and comfort. In Acts 1:8 (NIV), JESUS promised, But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses. Trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to lead you and give you the strength to overcome every challenge.

2. GOD is Your Protector

GOD promises to protect and fight for you. Psalm 91:1-2 (NIV) reassures us, Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress, my GOD, in whom I trust. Seek refuge in GOD’s presence, knowing that He is your shield and stronghold.

3. You Have the Victory in Christ

Through JESUS’ sacrifice on the cross, the ultimate victory has already been won. Colossians 2:15 (NIV) states, And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. Stand firm in this victory, knowing that no power of darkness can prevail against you.

4. Use the Word as Your Weapon

The Word of GOD is a powerful tool in spiritual warfare. Hebrews 4:12 (NIV) says, For the word of GOD is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword. Equip yourself with Scripture, meditate on it, and declare it over your life to counteract the enemy’s lies and temptations.

5. Pray with Persistence

Persistent prayer is essential in spiritual battles. Ephesians 6:18 (NIV) encourages us to pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. Maintain a fervent prayer life, seeking GOD’s guidance and interceding for strength and protection.

6. Trust in GOD’s Faithfulness

GOD is faithful and His promises are true. 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV) reminds us, No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And GOD is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. Trust that GOD will provide a way out and help you stand strong through every trial.

7. Encourage One Another

In times of spiritual warfare, it is crucial to support and encourage each other. Hebrews 10:24-25 (NIV) urges us, And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together… but encouraging one another. Surround yourself with a community of believers who will uplift and pray for you.

Stand Firm in Faith

Dear believer, stand strong in the Spirit of the LORD. Remember that the battle is not yours, but GOD’s. Lean on His strength, trust in His promises, and walk in the victory that JESUS Christ has secured for you. When you feel weary, remind yourself of GOD’s unchanging love and faithfulness. He is with you, fighting for you, and will never leave you nor forsake you.

Be encouraged, stay vigilant, and let your Faith be a beacon of hope in the midst of spiritual warfare. You are more than a conqueror through Him who loves you (Romans 8:37). Stand firm and be strong in the LORD!

In Christ’s Love, Dr. Carla The FAITH Coach

Powerful in the Holy Ghost

There is so much power in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I don’t know if we know how much power we really have access to. I do not know if we understand the power that resides in us is through the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Today, if you are baptized in the Holy Spirit, I implore you to try him today.  Try accessing that life changing power today.   I truly believe that we have various opportunities throughout the day to Minister to the needs of others. With such great access to such great power, why are we holding back??? Could it be that we are so busy with life that we miss our heavenly opportunities?

We do not even have the imagination of what the Holy Spirit can, will, shall, and must do through us. Will you even try today? Don’t miss a moment to show God’s Love, Majesty, Mercy, Grace, Power, Miracles, Signs, and/or His Wonders.

As I was reading my devotional today it took me to Acts 3.  Peter and John have been recently baptized with fire in the Holy Spirit. They are about to enter the temple and run into a man at the gate called Beautiful. The Bible said he was a lame man and had been that way for 40 years, since birth as a matter of fact. He was there begging for money which is what he did daily.

When the apostles see this man the first thing, they did was felt compassion for him. The ministry that Jesus operated in all the time, kicked in and they began to engage him by speaking to him. Next, they gave him something, not what he wanted or what he asked for. But how many of you know that if you have been unable to walk for 40 years…. I believe it is safe to say that the lame man knew and felt like this was his lot in life. His thoughts could possibly have been I will be like this for the rest of my life. The rest of my days I will be unable to walk, unable to provide for myself or my family without coming here and begging. I think it is a safe It is safe to say that he was relegated to this position and or posture.

However, here comes the Disruptors (Peter and John) with their no having silver and gold selves.  Answering the lame man responded by saying this is what I have for you.  Take up your bed and walk in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene. And suddenly, his feet felt something that they had never felt before. Power surged in his body and he began to stand up in the power of the Holy Spirit. The Bible said at once he stood up. He began to walk around on his new legs and feet. And entered into the temple, leaping and jumping and praising God.

So once again, my brothers and sisters, I implore you to access the power of the Holy Spirit that God has granted you and Jesus gifted you. Go out today and throughout your day and throughout your week seek who you can bless with the power of the Holy Spirit.

Who will cross your path today or tomorrow? And You will access the power of the Holy Spirit, operate in the ministry that Jesus called You to, and witness the power of the Holy Spirit move on behalf of the person you are praying for.

Yours in Christ

The God we serve is such a restorative Father.  His unfailing Love for us never ceases and His mercies are new to you and I every morning.  Wow, every morning I am able to draw on new mercies to start my day.  What an Amazing promise and your faithfulness is so great. My soul rejoices in the truth that the Lord is my portion and I shall HOPE in Him.

These scriptures (Lamentations 3:21-24) share the heart of God where we are concerned.  God’s plan for our lives has been and is currently restorative and redemptive.  His Love for you and I does not end, it is persistent and unmovable towards us.  Now more than ever we need to lean into Him for He is our portion.  Me, MySoul, and I shall HOPE in the LORD.    

Today I choose to watch the Lord restore my home, my city, my state, my country, and my world.  I will not let the distractions and destructions of 2020 keep me from witnessing and receiving the Blessings of the Lord.  With every new day I receive new mercies that redeem and restore my life. Lord I Thank You.

A Genuine FAITH

Your FAITH is more precious than Gold for gold perishes. As gold is purified in the fire so are you. Do not resist the testing by fire where your Faith is concerned.  Let every trial run its course while you yet stand and see the salvation of the Lord.  Let the tribulations come while you fight the Good fight of Faith.  Each adversity is meant to ultimately establish you in God.  The scripture says so that Your FAITH may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus.

Where does your Faith find you this day?  No condemnation just conviction for you to make a Divine shift and a Divine reset so that you will have Divine Perspective. 

My dear kingdom citizen you are stronger than you realize.  There have been fires that you have gone through that you did not even recognized until you were out and on the other side of it. Your Faith made a way. Stop, take a minute, and think of the things and places that Jesus has brought you out of, rescued and delivered you from. 

Each test, trial, and tribulation you went through produced a genuine Faith and drew you closer to Jesus. 

A Genuine FAITH

Master the Instruction

Master the Instruction its your Turn…

In my quiet time of prayer meditating in the morning Holy Spirit began highlighting Peter and his occupation which was that of a fisherman.  I began to recall that he had a fishing business, and this was how Peter provided for his family.  As I pondered this, I transition into reading my devotional and scriptures and there it was the story of Peter the fisherman, the taxes, and the coin in the fish’s mouth. 

Not 5 minutes earlier I was receiving a word from Holy Spirit and now I am reading the very scriptures about Peter the fisherman, the fish and the coin.  And on this morning the thoughts of Peter were highlighted so bright.  Not only was fishing his job, his profession, and how he provided for his family, but it was his Gift.  It was his gift that took care of his family. His profession, his gifting, was used to provide for his family and pay his taxes without any hindrances.

In Matthew Ch 17:24-27 we read about the temple tax. Peter was confronted about Jesus paying taxes.  If you know the story, then you know that Peter says yes Jesus pays the tax but immediately returns to Jesus to ask if it is so.   After a brief dialogue, Jesus instructed Peter to go to the lake throw out a hook and the 1st fish caught would have a Gold coin in its mouth.  This coin would be enough for Jesus’s taxes and Peter’s taxes. Peter followed the instructions of the LORD and received the blessing. 

It was the instruction from Jesus and the obedience of Peter to go fish and  the coin would be in the mouth of the fish to pay not only Jesus’s taxes but Peter’s taxes as well.  It is time to Master the Instruction.  The Lord is instructing you today to accomplish an assignment given to you.  Perhaps he’s already instructed you in times past and you have not obeyed the instruction.  Now is the time for your obedience. If Jesus says it then it is so.  It is now your responsibility to do as He instructed, and His instructions are to your benefit. 

HINT/CLUE

Jesus told Peter to go do something he already knew how to do.  Jesus put His supernatural on Peter’s gift of fishing.  What is your Gift? Jesus is waiting.

Mark 11:23 Prayer for Today:

Today let’s believe the word of God.

Father I sit and listen for your instructions for me in this day.  I pray to have the boldness and the courage to carry out the instructions that you give to me. I know it is in my obedience to the instructions, that your will is done in the Earth realm.  And through my obedience I receive the benefits, rewards, and the blessings of your Supernatural abilities in my life.   I thank you Lord when I Master the Instructions that you give me, I am successful and reap an amazing harvest in Jesus’s name Amen. 

Yours in Christ

Look to the HILL!

 

Psalm 121:1

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

What are you need of today? Is it your health? Has the enemy robbed you today or yesterday in any area of your LIFE.  What are you Looking at.  I have come to rely on this scripture more and more.  My mother-in-law quotes this scripture ALL the Time.  I never knew why this was her go to scripture but as I have grown in the word of and as an adult I know what it truly means.

When I hear this song by Travis Green I am reminded of several scriptures but this one especially.  Psalm 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.  The Bible tell us we are the healed.  We as Believers, Christians, Children of the Most High God, the Remnant, or whatever adjective you are claiming today on the cross, on that hill, “Calvary” that Jesus said it is finish.

Today we operate in the finish work of Jesus.  We now have power and authority that was given back to us and all finished work at the cross is Ours.  So your healing is finished.  I’m dealing with healing today.  I have so many people connected to me that are being plagued in their bodies with sickness and disease and unrest and people of GOD that is not our portion.  You were healed at Calvary sickness and disease is trying to come up on you.  Whose report will you believe? Where are you Looking? What is your heart set on? Your healing/healed state of being or what the enemy and symptoms are saying. Today lets BELIEVE God.  8/22/2016

PRAYER6975079-green-hills

I pray for a Supernatural Revealed Word to be released over your Life today.  I plead the Blood of Jesus over every area that is contrary to the word of God concerning your body.  You are healed from the top of your heads to the soles of your feet.  No weapon shall by no means prosper against you I pray for divine health to manifest Now in Jesus name.  You are healed, You are whole, You are set free in Jesus name.  Lord we Thank you Right now in advance for you finished work in our lives in every area.  In Jesus name Amen.
