Don’t let your presence be a present. Let your presence be a REWARD! Presents are often given away to folks who didn’t earn it, but a REWARD is for those who put in the blood, the sweat, the sacrifice, even some tears to be disciplined to run the race & WIN. People will respect things & people they have to work for. Watch carefully who you allow in your presence because they may gain access into your heart. If you’re dealing with someone who doesn’t appreciate you, evaluate how they entered into your life. Did they win you as a prize in the race or were you their complimentary gift just for showing up? Be blessed! #brotherprater

If God can forgive you, can YOU FORGIVE YOU? So often it’s your OWN GUILT that keeps you a prisoner of your past. Stop looking for others to release you when God put the keys in your hands. Your release date is set for the day that you receive forgiveness towards yourself. Be free & don’t look back! Remember, God forgave you, others forgave you, NOW FORGIVE YOURSELF! In Jesus’ Name, AMEN! Be blessed!#brotherprater

Somebody needs to hear this!
Friends with benefits could become bitter baby mama/baby daddy with enemy consequences. Don’t violate your trust through sexual desires that you know that eventually they will give to someone else. Build respect & equity for yourself by saving sex for your honeymoon. Remember, if they don’t want to take you to the altar, then alter your focus to someone who will. You’re more than a piece of meat, you’re a whole person deserving of LOVE!#If you don’t want to play house, stay off their property! Be blessed!#brotherprater

The bigger your heart, the smaller your circle should be! Don’t take everyone to be trustworthy or to be honest because you’re that way. Listen! As you evaluate a person’s words with their actions, God’s spirit will reveal their MOTIVES! Know that when you seek God & the plans He has for you, the devil wants to stop or discourage you by attaching you with people who will distract you from God’s will for your life. No longer waste time guessing if this person came to bless you or curse you! Allow God to be the gatekeeper of your heart. He will send those who are for you & block those who tries to harm you. Then your heart won’t be disappointed when He exposes to you who’s access was DENIED! Disclaimer: Protecting your heart is not only towards dating, but within friendships & family too! Be blessed! #brotherprater

No matter who you are, what you do or how much you do help folks, there will STILL be people who will talk about you or lie on you. As painful as I may be, you can NOT let that stop you. When you’re operating in the assignment God has for you, the anointing God places upon you will not only strength you to do the task but it will attract your enemies, haters, gossipers, or any other ill feelings that others have towards you. 2 key rules to remember: #1) Make sure that you’re not guilty of what they are saying. #2) Forgive them. The devil wants to use them (or the offense) to distract you from focusing on your assignment. LISTEN! The biggest way to getting through the foolishness is to STICK TO YOUR ASSIGNMENT! Allow this to remind you that your purpose is so important that the devil will use people who are close to you to “TRY TO” stop you! THAT DEVIL IS A LIE! God will give you the courage you in the midst of what you’re going through. God will prepare a table in the presence of your enemies. Remember, the bigger the enemy, the BIGGER THE TABLE! #STAY FOCUSED ON YOUR BIG TABLE & LET GOD FOCUS ON YOUR BIG ENEMIES! Be blessed! #brotherprater
