Hello All! I’m looking forward to a long weekend since this week has been so emotional. Well, I’m in the process of buying a home this year and got some news I was not happy with. Yes, it put a damper on my spirit, and I walked around feeling sad. What’s humorous about God is how He will have you minister to someone who is in a similar situation. Let me explain. At my place of employment, there’s a young lady who has a lot going on for herself, but she constantly sees what she doesn’t have. On Wednesday, when she came in my office, I told her things may not always work out as planned, but you have to be patient. Look at how far you've come instead of how far you have to go. I began to share my situation with her and told her I would love to be able to come off my job and do spoken word full-time and that I would love to buy a house today, but I have to be patient and know I will get there. She said, "But Ms. Shakina, I’m not satisfied-I want more. I have not accomplished anything I really wanted to.” Then the Lord spoke right through me and said you have to be content. You should not be SATISFIED, but you can be CONTENT and grateful for what you already have. Afterwards of course, I said OUCH because it was more for me than her. Later that night at Bible study, my Apostle quoted the scripture “let patience have a perfect work in you.” When my time comes it will come. So that same night I prayed and released it to God and said whatever your will is God. The following day I made some calls and got some hopeful news. So this weekend everyone, Be Grateful! Be content and give it over to God. Your Shakina (Kina Da Prophetic Poet) Lewis  

Hello All ! This week has been dedicated to the life of Whitney Houston, A great artist, actress and much more. She was a person that gave more than 100 percent to her fans and her music. Her her songs touch many people and her life will continue to live on through her music and the memories she left behind.

I thought to myself what will people say about me when I leave this earth? Will my legacy live on through my kids, ministry and career? I don’t know how much time I have left, but when I hear stories like Whitney's it makes me get a grip and began to appreciate the time I have on earth. I want my life to live on once I pass and I want to leave something behind for my children to give to the next generation.

My heart goes out to Ms. Whitney's family. Thank God for the good memories they have. Let’s not waste anymore time with disagreement/gossip about who we don’t like. Let get to business with what God has for us while we still have the chance. Let’s stay focused on our purpose.

At work we sometimes get in a heated discussions about religion. I find myself getting caught up in debating my point. Yesterday, I was so irritated I had to leave. At the end of the day it’s about God not me. I am working on holding my peace and letting God fight my battles. I'm seeking God now and asking him why it bothers me so much. (I’ll share this in another post.) The point is the time I invested in trying to convince someone to see my point, I could be doing my job and trust God to give me the opportunity to share at the right time.

So life is short, but at the same time it’s long too. Ask yourself what’s important right now at this moment. Stays blessed live life and love someone who doesn’t deserve it.  Kina the prophetic poet.”Dare To Be Me” wants me to do my job not.

Hey! Happy Monday to all. I'm in the process of preparing my to be a wife again. Lol. This time around I feel confident in my self to have a healthy long lasting relationship. Well today's topic is doing what's right when no one is looking. I was talking to one of my co-worker's and they stated they did not get credit for some work they produced at the job. However, they mentioned they will not allow it to keep them from doing what they loved doing, which is helping the people we serve. I thought about my Christian walk and how sometimes we may not get the credit we think we deserve. But our reward is seeing others blessed through our prayers or servant-hood towards them. We have to remember why we are saved. It's more than fire insurance or just staying in our clique. People will not always give us credit or acknowledge our efforts, but God will in due season. Our time will come so stay focused , stay positive and live for Him. Your girl Kina the Prophetic Poet.

Let not your heart be troubled with all the evil we see in the world today. Let's remember God is still sitting on the Throne. He hears our prayers and is still working behind the scenes. I don't have much to say today, just wanted to encourage you to keep pressing toward God and what He has for you. Cast your cares to him. He sees and knows all. God Bless you. Kina Da Prophetic Poet - "Dare To Be Me" 

Happy Monday. It's the beginning of another week. I’ll be honest, last week was not my best week. Have your ever felt what’s the point of pressing on when you can’t see the reward right away? How long do you have to wait until things begin to move on your behalf? I had to remind myself  of what God has blessed me with. Right now, I have no magic pill about how to wait on God, or how to fight when depression tries to take over your mind. When people say everything, but what you need to hear. When you are tired of working for someone else, when you are dreaming to do more. In my book that’s coming out in May, I wrote a piece called “Prison Bars, I've felt sometimes that life was like the prison system that held me in contempt of court, of bad situations and a rap sheet of negative reports “Sometimes we feel as if life is dealing with us instead of us dealing with it. Depression is so easy to fall into. We live in a society that claims to have the all the answers to happiness. I saw myself being moved by my emotions this week or let’s say "she-motions". Your feelings will tell you how to react, but God’s word is our guide. Do not allow life to hold you in a prison of depression and keep you locked away from God's promises for your life. So be blessed this week and I'll see you again real soon. Love ya! Kina the Prophetic Poet. "Dare to Be Me". 

I became impregnated with the idea of having my own T-shirt line about four years ago. About a week ago, I was praying about it, when the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, “Kina get ready to push this baby out,” however, I was stuck. I could see the head and felt the urge to push, but the baby was not in the right position. It’s times such as these where we need the guidance of the Holy Spirit the most in terms of preparing us to accept the help we need to give birth since we are not able to do it on our own. When the baby is not in the right position, “someone” may help the mother by turning the baby around or a “team” of people may be required to take the child from the mother in an effort to save the unborn child’s life. Don’t let that baby that has been growing inside of you die because you got tired of pushing. Also, don’t allow that baby to die because you are too stubborn, or too proud to allow anyone to assist with birthing that child. I held on to my T-shirt line idea for so long, alone, but now I can hear the Holy Spirit saying, “Surround yourself with people who will encourage you to push, even when you are tired and are willing to step up to the plate when necessary.”

Good Morning all, so yesterday I had the chance to pray for some of your out there and it was a blessing to take the energy off of me and focus on whats important. Today's topic is God will wipe your debt clean. Yesterday I was working on my budget for the month. I own a balance on my electric bill my pay check and what I owned was not adding up. Anyhow I made sure my tithes and offering came out ...

Foreplay is "Sexual activity that precedes intercourse" I was in Church yesterday and the Lord spoke to me foreplay. Two things came to mind one is for some the hardest thing is to wait for sex until marriage.

Today's is don't allow life to deal with you learn to deal with life.

 

A personal interview

We will all one day meet God personally. We will look him in the eye and have that personal interview with Him.

" When everything in our life is going wrong; prayer works." So with that being said today I pray for you

Then the Lord spoke this scripture to my spirit psalm 138:8 " The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. Everything I have in my life I thought about it first.

Just keep dreaming. Everyone may not have a billion-dollar idea, but we all have something to give to this world. Its money to be made just find your place; work your craft and dream big. God said, “He will do exceedingly all that we ask or think.”

Good Morning all, so I have to be honest last night I could not sleep. One reason is my cat likes to play a night. Alternatively, it could be that I had too much sugar and caffeine. Yea, my son made ice tea, and I forgot that it has caffeine in it; for me this is not a good mix. My body does not adjust well to caffeine. I just put a spoon in the freezer to reduce these bags up under my eyes from not getting the proper rest. Well, so what is the lesson for the day? Start to take better care of your body, God only gave us one. What we eat, drink, say, wear, see and hear does affect us, one way or another. In this new season began to learn more about you. We take so much time in studying what others do. However, we don't know what we are scriptural allergic too. We may have to change the way we eat. We may need more sleep. We may need to dress up and for some dress down, we may need to stay away from negative people or refuse to hear them, and we may need to be careful what we listen to because that will affect our thinking. "God wants us to prosper as our soul prospers" We only have control over us. Take care of your soul, body and mind, and be careful how you spend your time. We only get one body so treat it well because this is the place where our Jesus Christ Dwells" Kina da poet "Dare To Me Be"

“When in life so much to do and see, seek God to where you should be." Get your priorities in order

During my trip to Heresy Park this past weekend. It started off as an enjoyable time with my family. After we check in the hotel I noticed sometime later I lost my car key. I went to lost and found and no one had seen it. The lady at the front desk gave me three numbers to a locksmith. I called one and he stated its 139 dollars to come and make me a key. So I called my spiritual mother from my church and she gave me her information so I can pay the locksmith. The locksmith called and he was having a hard time finding Hersey Park. He was about to leave it, took almost an half an hour for him to find us. Finally he goes to make us a key and the key he made did not start my car. A guard from the park gave us a jump and my car still did not start. The locksmith said my device is saying its program to take the new key. At the last hour I asked the guard to check lost and found to see if someone found my key. He said yea, someone just turn it in. Wow I said. The locksmith said your key may not work because I clear it so the new key could work. My daughter said are we going to be stuck here? What are we going to do? I said pray. So I prayed. Lord whatever the outcome is, just get us home you know I have ministry, my church home and so on. The guard bought back my key and the car still did not work. We tried about 3-5 times. Then I got another jump and my car still did not work. At the last hour before the park close. The locksmith made a call and got an idea to try. I don't know what he did on the technical side but my key work and my car started. He looked at me and said you’re some lucky folks I said no that was God and his favor. He got in his truck and said I can’t even charge your just go ahead.

For what ever reason my life was a witness to the locksmith; at the last hour God showed up on my behalf. You may be at the last hour, but God will show up on your behalf someone need to know God is real. Amen Kina the Poet

Tonight I had minister spoken word. I sat there waiting for my turn to perform. I saw everyone go up as I patiently waiting to hear my name call. I start to get weary and I almost said. I don't have to go up. When I first arrived, the place was filled with people but towards the end people started fading out. The Lord showed me this is what happens in our Christian walk. We will sit around watching others be bless. Hoping our turn will come, some of us been waiting so long we are very close in saying never mind God. I don't need this blessing. Tonight the Lord use my situation to encourage His people don't say never mind your turn is coming. You may be the last artist, the last to finish school,the last to get married, the last to get the promotion and the last to preach. However, your turn is coming the host is about to call your name and the blessing is at the very end of the show.

 

God Bless

"Relationships reminds me of peanubutter its smoother without the nuts"

 

"Relationships are like cell phones, if you keep getting drop calls. You need to get a new service." LOL joke for the day

 

"Relationships are like parking meters make sure the time don't run out"

Hello Face book, I woke up this morning and I checked my email. I begin to delete all the junk mail that takes up unnecessary space. When doing that I thought of how negative people can be junk mail. When we allow negative people (junk Mail folks) take up space in our lives we have no room for the positive people (mail that matters) So go on and clean out your mail box and make sure you get rid of all junk mail. Some people may wonder why nothing good comes my way. You may not have room your mail box is full of junk.

Hello All, My motto for last year was “allow your experiences to be your teacher and teach others through your experiences” Took me some time but this year motto is. “Rejection means you are moments away of being approved” This year may come with a lot of rejections, but you need to understand it’s a part of the growth process. Many great and influential people dealt with rejection first. Not everyone will approve of you. However, don’t let that stop you from everything God has for you. Don’t worry about who rejection you when God approves you.

Last night my son fell off his bike. He couldn’t move because the pain was unbearable. He had a nasty cut on his chest from his bike’s handlebars. When we went to the ER, they gave him an X-Ray to make sure there was no major damage. The X-Ray came back okay. The Doctor said, “He would heal, he is just in pain from the blow he took in his chest”. They gave me a prescription for some pain medications. They said, “He would be a little sore but he is okay”. When people hurt us, we may have a nasty cut from the pain. But if we take the prescription God has given us in due time we will heal. Looking at my children, I learned a lot from them. My son broke his wrist, banged his head and scraped his knee. But what’s funny with my son, he doesn’t stop being a kid. I know in a couple of days, he will be back on the bike. With that being said, we get knocked and sometimes pushed down and we may fall because of our own mistakes. But that shouldn’t stop us from getting back on the bike. Keep getting on the bike until you make it to your destination. Life is too short not to keep riding. God Bless, Kina
