Live and Proclaim

I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done.

The LORD has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.

This is the day the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.

O LORD, save us;
O LORD, grant us success.


~ Psalm 118.17, 23-25 ~ (New International Version)

The Lord Is Completely Dependable!

"The One who called you is completely dependable. If he said it, he'll do it!"

~1 Thessalonians 5.23-24 ~

The Lord is dependable! I will focus all my energy on Him, not of myself...my strength will draw from Him...I know I can do all things through Him who strengthens me, and this is not a feel good bumper sticker, this is truth and I will live it!

God, thank you for choosing me to become a Doctor. Thank You that You do not want a substitute. Thank You that in the same way You told Moses and Aaron that You would be right there next to them teaching them what to say and how to say it, that You are doing the same with me. Just as David destroyed goliath because David attacked in The Strong Name Of God Almighty, may I attack the mcat in Your Strong Name! Slinging My Stone and bringing down the mcat.

Lord you called David, You did not want a substitute. You are calling me. You do not want a substitute. You are choosing me. I will not make you angry by objecting. I accept Your call with Humbleness and Honor. I will pick up my sword, carry my shield, and dedicate my life to You and Your Purposes through me.

You have given me Your Son. I will not dishonor You. Jesus You have given me all of You. Now take all of Me...You are Completely Dependable...I will live my life in Trust of Your Power! Do Your Will In Me and Through Me! For Your Glory God, Soli Deo Glori!

The Father's Bright Splendor!

John 17.1-5

Jesus said these things. Then, raising his eyes in prayer, he said:
Father, it's time.
Display the bright splendor of your Son
So the Son in turn may show your bright splendor.

I glorified you on earth
By completing down to the last detail
What you assigned me to do.

Promise Land Prayers

Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, "We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it."

~ Numbers 13.30 (NIV) ~


8 If the LORD is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and will give it to us. 9 Only do not rebel against the LORD. And do not be afraid of the people of the land, because we will swallow them up. Their protection is gone, but the LORD is with us. Do not be afraid of them."

~ Numbers 14.8-9 (NIV) ~

"Brad, To you I will give the land of Canaan (M.D.) as the portion you will inherit."

~ Psalm 105 (NIV) ~

"All the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God"

~ 2 Cor 1:20 ~

"Take heart, men, for I believe God that it will be just as it was told"

~ Acts 27:25 ~

"Nothing on earth compares to the strength God is willing to interject
into lives caught in the act of believing."
~ Beth Moore - Believing God ~

Lord, Make Me Able!

Proverbs 16:9 (MSG)

We plan the way we
want to live, but only
God makes us able
to live it.

"Lord make us able!"

Calm, Cool, & Collected!

Quiet Confidence, the composure of Joe Montana bringing his team back in the 4th quarter. This is the mindset I am developing in mcat studies and will bring to the mcat when I take it down in Sep!

It's like running track. Jeff and I have relaxed intensity...We are going full out, but we are so relaxed that our cheeks are bouncing around...no tension whatsoever!

I am and will be clear-minded...like a samurai, blowing through the mcat like a cloud of dust!

I will be calm, cool, & collected!

Victory In Jesus Christ! Amen!

The Lord's Purposes!

Just got very inspired this morning as I was Praying for Jeff and TeamNashville! Look at Psalm 138.8:

The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me;
your love, O LORD, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands

I Praise The Lord for fulfilling His purposes for TeamNashville, for our family, and for what I know to be true: myself becoming a Doctor!

The Lord's Love endures forever and it is an amazing honor to be a part of His Plans. I will give my life to doing my part to fulfilling them!

Today will be an 'active-off' day of studying. Time to refresh. Just like an 'active-off' day in Track, this time to be 'actively-off' will make me better for Training tomorrow God-Willing!

Soli Deo Gloria! Slinging My Stone, Time To Scrub In!

Father, It's Time!

I love The Prayer of Jesus, The Prayer He speaks to God for His Followers in John 17...

The Message Paraphrase says it so cool:

Jesus said these things. Then, raising his eyes in prayer, he said: Father, it's time. Display the bright splendor of your Son So the Son in turn may show your bright splendor.
(Emphasis Added)

Listen, I don't claim to be Jesus, but I love to model this Prayer. I Pray I will display the bright splendor of God my Father by becoming a Doctor. I feel like it is time. A Major reason I believe this is because of my Intense Prayers with Him and through The Counsel of The Holy Spirit. Confirmation after confirmation and being sensitive to The Holy Ghost, I feel as though I am ready to become a Doctor and for it to be my Ministry to SHINE for God's Glory!

Today was Awesome, PX!...Kaplan FL 2, I did the following:

Physical Sciences psgs III & IV + 2nd sxn of discretes
VR passages VI & VII
Biological Psgs III & IV + 2nd sxn of discretes

PX the mcat went down today. I am feeling it! In The Zone BIG Time. God is splitting this Red Sea in my life, as He always has, is, and will!

I continue to Trust God and the gifts He has given me, trusting myself because of my Trust In God! I am thankful for my family & Their Fasting/Prayers; for how He is using them to prepare my way to become a Doctor, MD. I Pray I am helping them and making an impact on them as they are for me. I know this, I am going to be super intentional to do so! PX!
