Back to Blogging

Good morning gems!

I am back to blogging like I intended to when I created this blog. I wanted to post inspirational, faith based content that would edify the spirit and help you grow closer to God. I did get carried away with the book reviews -- but I'm a book nerd at heart. I plan to post at least 1-2  posts a week that's outside of book reviews.

These posts will vary from short devotionals to prayers, study tips to scripture studies and so much more. I'll also be posting more information on upcoming Bible studies I lead as well as book clubs that are taking place over in the Daughter of Increase Facebook group. My desire for this blog is to keep a hub where women (young and mature) can come to put a fire back in their hearts for God, jump start their days with Jesus and stay in-tune with God.

Thank you again to all who come to check out the blog. I truly appreciate it! New posts will be coming in July!

Have a blessed day!

DOI Book Club - Fervent by Priscilla Shirer

Good morning Gems! Today, I'll be sharing with you all one of the exciting things I'll be starting in March and it's a book club! I polled on Facebook and Instagram and had you all vote and the winner was a no-brainer! This is the first Book Club that I’ll be hosting ever and I am so excited. Fervent by Priscilla Shirer won hands down! We’re jumping into the topic of prayer and I’m a big person on reading and learning all that I can about prayer. I don’t know about you all, but my prayer life has its ups and downs. Now for those of you who don’t know, Priscilla Shirer is the actress from the movie War Room ( which I HIGHLY recommend ). She wrote a book for woman based off of the movie. Here’s bit of what to expect from this phenomenal book: “You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t gene...

VOTW | Isaiah 41:10 - Ever Present Help

Good morning Gems (& Gents)! This past weekend has been insane in both a good and scary way. I experienced something frightening, but in that situation I felt a sense of peace and contentment that I'd never would have experienced before if my relationship with God wasn't where it is now. As I was thinking of a verse for this week, I came across this one from the book of Isaiah and I knew this was it: Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Such a small, yet powerful verse. This is a command and a promise from our Father whether we are in times of despair or in seasons of gladness. Though told this to the people of Israel, this verse is still true to His children today. Let's start off by breaking down some of the words in this verse shall we: Fear : the Hebrew word is  yare' meaning to cause to frighten ( affright ); to make or be afraid;...
