The Call for Clean Hands and a Pure Heart

Washing hands
Corona Virus has demanded us to pay close attention to washing our hands as well as disinfecting and sanitizing our house and environment.

It is by no accident, coincidence or mistake that Corona Virus has swept through the world. When I look at the extreme details of this virus and what the Lord has revealed to me in scriptures over the past decade, I realize how this virus has demanded us to pay close attention to washing our hands as well as disinfecting and sanitizing our house and environment.

In the past few days, I’ve reflected on the spiritual nature of God, the alignment of His word, and His desire for us to live a clean and pure life. The Lord has forewarned us but the people have not listened.

They have continued to ignore the ways of God. They have desired to walk in their own ways and create their own laws. They are wise in their own eyes yet they do not see, they do not hear and they do not understand. They walk as blind men in their ignorance towards the spiritual nature of the Lord.

They worship me for entertainment. They raise their hands in churches and congregations but their hearts are not pure. They are quick to quote scriptures but it is not embedded in their heart. Do they think they can earn their way to heaven through works of pleasing men?

In the world, they strive to be acknowledged, recognized and admired by their peers. Oh, they love an audience and love to follow but do not lead with integrity. They walk without faith, discernment or wisdom. Their lifestyles are a reflection of unrighteousness, rebellion and unholiness. They are made of a haughty and proud spirit. Their ways are foolishness.

The Lord has sent warnings. He has pleaded for them to let go of their idols. They increase in the pleasures of greed and lust, arrogance, gossip, backbiting, jealousy, abuse, and vanity.

Oh, what a stiff-necked nation! It’s a nation made of stone who turns their face against the Messiah in disobedience. A sinful nation who loves to oppress the poor, widow, and fatherless. A nation that celebrates injustice and continues to spread evil and hatred like a virus.

Do they think there is no price or cost for their ways? Do they think they can continue being a god of the earth without penalty? Consider your ways.

The judgement is upon the land. Who will stand in the heat of destruction? Where is your power now? Where are the mockers, scorners and the children of disobedience?

The storm has come. Who among you has clean hands and a pure heart? It’s time to turn away from your wickedness and deceitfulness. It’s time to turn away from your lies and your carnal, worldly mindsets.

Do you not understand that I see your heart? I hear your thoughts. For out of the heart the abundance speaks. [Matt 10:7-42]

I am not your Santa Claus. I am not your genie in a bottle. I am not a fairy tale or myth. I am not your law of attraction, neither am I your crystals, horoscopes, fortune, tarot cards, chakras and good luck.

I am God, the maker of heaven and earth, the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end. The creator of all things.

Depart from your divination, witchcraft and Jezebel worship. Depart from your false religions, cults and practices.

I am a loving God who chastens and corrects. Why do you resist me? Why do you ignore me? Why do you not honor my name?

The time has come. The hour has arrived. Choose you this day who you will serve? [Joshua 24:15]

Wash your hands of sin and disobedience. Purge your heart of wickedness and evil. Wake up, the slothful in spirit. Are you hot or cold for my truth?

Clean your hands. Purge your hearts for your redemption knocks at the door.

  1. to make pure; free from anything that debases, pollutes, adulterates, or contaminates: 2. to free from foreign, extraneous, or objectionable elements:to purify a language. 3. to free from guilt or evil. 4. to clear or purge (usually followed by of or from). 5. to make clean for ceremonial or ritual use. 6. to become pure

Food for Your Soul: Filling Your Heart with the Word of God

Breakfast, food
Each day, we must also focus our attention on feeding our spirit with the Gospel. It provides the daily nutrients we need like faith, trust, integrity, grace, forgiveness and a host of other ingredients needed in life.

One of my favorite meals is breakfast. I look forward to melted butter and drizzled maple syrup over cinnamon and nutmeg pancakes or a loaded omelet with cheddar cheese, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, and spinach. Of course, hazelnut coffee is my prerequisite and my daily motivator.

As much as I enjoy breakfast, I definitely need to eat lunch and dinner which provides me with extra energy, strength and substance to fuel me for the rest of the day.

Each day, we must also focus our attention on feeding our spirit with the Gospel. It provides the daily nutrients we need like faith, trust, integrity, grace, forgiveness, and a host of other ingredients needed in life.

The living word satisfies all of our needs and desires. It calms our fears and worries and provides us with solutions on how to tackle our obstacles and challenges.

When you’re filled with the Spirit of God, your cup overflows with His goodness, mercy and grace. Healing and deliverance is yours. The power of the word ignites your heart and mind.

The word of God provides the strength you need to overcome every obstacle, confront and destroy every enemy, break the yoke of bondage and stand in the midst of chaos and confusion with an unexplainable peace.

The word of God is a shield of protection. It covers us through sickness and disease, and attacks from anxiety, fear, stress, and depression.

To go through this year without the proper tools and strategies to move every mountain of hindrance, cease every storm of tribulation and overthrow the Pharaoh of captivity and bondage in your life would be detrimental and even catastrophic.

Let us position ourselves in daily prayer, repentance, and worship. Draw near to Jesus and He will draw near to you. It all starts with reading and meditating on the Word.

It’s time to stop running towards people, places and things to fill a void in your life. Choose a life that satisfies. It’s food for your soul.

Matt 5:6

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Eph: 6:10-17

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Romans 14:17

17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Rom 14:19-20

19 Let us, therefore, follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for that man who eateth with offense.

Heb 4:12

12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The Valley of Dry Bones

Valley of Dry Bones – Poem by Yolanda Berry


Ezekiel 37: 1- 14 1 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, 2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. 3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest. 4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. 5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: 6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord. 7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone. 8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. 9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. 11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. 12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13 And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, 14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord.
