So Cinderella or Prince Ali Babawa aka Aladdin you gave your life to Christ now what? Well, HE washed you clean with the blood of HIS son Jesus and you are now a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17 ~ Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.) Well, the drill goes like this get connected to a Bible based church to get the Word of God, Study scriptures being taught, study Jesus’ Life story, pray, attend church, get connected, tell people about Your God, and serve. I know it’s awesome—the scales have been lifted off your eyes and you see the world in a whole new way. (Ephesians 2:3-4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.) But you still have problems and you ask yourself “Why is that?” Well, my dear—there are accessories you have to put on to walk through this journey as a Princess or Prince of God. I know that in the beginning of my walk with God everything was good. I was on cloud 9+ and my fire for God was ALL consuming through me, but I still had my marital problems. I didn’t know where to start, but I asked the Lord for major help—I mean I said “Lord, get me out of this marriage. Let Your will be done open all doors that you wish me to walk through and close all doors that you will not allow me to go through.” When I tell you God showed HIMself mighty!!! It’s a testimony that I tell you can help you to believe that (With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” ~ Mark 10:27). HE truly made the impossible possible. I left my marriage, but I continued to pursue God as I was still a “Baby Christian”, but I love the Lord with ALL my heart and soul as you do as well. HE showed me alot about HIM and God always has an agenda when HE gives you something you desire. I was on a mission for the Lord to help a close friend bridge that gap to the relationship with the Lord and it was a glorious experience that I would never forget. God will do that HE will place people in your life for HIS glory and purpose, so be prepared to be used by God in situations that you could only imagine. When HE places me in situations--I always look up and talk to HIM and acknowledge what I call "The Set-Up". Now before you go start your walk or as you are continuing your walk with God remember the basic principles: God is in Control…You have the peace of God available to you…and the Word of God is your guide to life’s situations. You have your crown and now it’s time to get fully dressed in the clothes and accessories that your Heavenly Father has ordained for you to wear as HIS heir. It’s called the “Full Armor of God” and it’s going to help you with your walk and the daily attacks by the enemy and people.
(Ephesians 6:13-17 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.)

This picture illustrates how we should be spiritually dressed on a daily basis. The belt of truth which represents God Word—Speak them in every situation to defeat the enemy tactics and schemes against you. We are in right standing with God, so we are considered righteous nothing from our past or anybody can take that away from us. We are not perfect people—because, if we were we would not be here. Our peace was left with us when Jesus ascended to Heaven, so we can tap into that anytime through the Holy Spirit who is with us always. Faith is belief what we walk by as Christians because we know that we know that we know that God is faithful and HE will do exactly what HE says HE would do remember that HE is not a man that HE shall lie. As for our feet we should be prepared for anything that comes along our path. Though our carriage will not turn into a pumpkin and our threads will turn into rags we will always be heir to the throne because of God’s unfailing love and mercy.
As I digress because I know this is probably a bit deep for some of you—I have heard from a man that died for 90 minutes he said that “Heaven is a prepared place, for prepared people” ~ Don Piper. Which means we always have to be prepared in the Word of God, and know what to say at the appropriate time for the appropriate battle and stand firm on God’s promises as you are the heir to the Most High God—Nobody Greater. Always remember and never forget to enjoy your walk with God. Share HIS word with as many people you encounter because your testimony can change a life. There are hurting people out there and as the daughter or son of God you have a duty to tell all about his Majesty, Love, and Faithfulness.
