Motivations from the Heart of
Paula Williams-Gaillard

"But now in this period since you began to build, I am not to the remnant of this people as in the former days, says the Lord of Hosts. For there shall the seed produce peace and prosperity; the vine shall yield her fruit and the ground shall give its increase and the Heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit and possess all these things. And as you have been a curse and a byword among the nations, O House of Judah and House of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a Blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong and hardened. And let none of you think or imagine or devise evil or injury in your hearts against his neighbor, and love no false oath, for all these things I hate, says the Lord." Zechariah 8:11-13, 17 (Amplified)

"And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. " Luke 15:29 (KJV)

Now how does the Scriptures and title above tie into one another.....I don't know....I just know I attempted to write this Motivation at around 4:00am but just couldn't. Holy Spirit directed me to the Scriptures, gave me the title but that was all I had. I figured instead of trying to operate in the flesh and try to make something happened, I'd go back to bed and wait until Holy Spirit gave me what He wanted to say to the Church! Well after I laid down for about an hour.....I was awakened by this Word from The Lord"

GOD WILL MEET YOU AT YOUR POINT OF NEED!!!!

That's it People of God.........GOD WILL MEET YOU AT YOUR POINT OF NEED......not mine....not your spouse's....not your brother's.....sister's........but at YOUR point of need!!!!

You are already Blessed so be Encouraged....

"Encourage Yourself In The Lord"







Motivations from the Heart of Paula Williams-Gaillard


I don't know what battles....what circumstances and what issues some are you are facing right now.....but know.....GOD KNOWS!!!! He knows every situation.....he knows every struggle....and every challenge!

While God has gifted me with the Gift of Exhortation to encourage and uplift His People......this day Holy Spirit wants you to.......ENCOURAGE YOURSELF IN THE LORD!!!

Judges 20:22: "And the people the men of Israel encouraged themselves, and set their battle again in array in the place where they put themselves in array the first day."

I Samuel 30:6: "And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God."

II Chronicles 32:5: "Also he (Hezekaiah) strengthened himself, and built up all the wall that was broken, and raised it up to the towers, and another wall without, and repaired Millo in the city of David, and made darts and shields in abundance."

Each of them.....The Men of Israel, David and Hezekiah....when faced with a battle after they sought God for direction......THEY ENCOURAGED THEMSELVES.....PURSUED AND WON!!!

People of God......YOU WILL WIN!!!! ENCOURAGE YOURSELF IN THE LORD......ASK HIM TO COVER YOU WITH THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS AND FACE YOUR BATTLE HEAD ON......GOD IS WITH YOU....HE'S THERE....FIGHTING FOR YOU....WITH YOU........EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.....HE'S THERE.....ENCOURAGE YOURSELF IN THE LORD!!!!!

I'll end with a Prayer which includes excerpts from II Chronicles 32:7-8 & Ephesians 3:16:

"Be strong and courageous. Be not afraid or dismayed.....for there is Another with us greater than all those with him (the enemy).....with him (the enemy) is an arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles....May God grant you out of the rich treasury of His Glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty Power in the inner man by Holy Spirit Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality.......in Jesus' Name and by His shed Blood.....Amen!

You are already Blessed so be Encouraged....
Love ya,

"Safe In His Arms"





Motivations from the Heart of Paula Williams-Gaillard




"You who sit down in the High God's presence, spend the night in Shaddai's shadow, say this: "God, You're my Refuge. I trust in You and I'm safe!" That's right—He rescues you from hidden traps, shields you from deadly hazards. His huge outstretched arms protect you—under them you're perfectly safe; His arms fend off all harm." Psalm 91:1-4 (The Message)


This morning I was awaken after having a very disturbing dream. My youngest son, Jaquan, must have been about 5 or 6 in the dream....anyhow.......he and I were up 2 stories standing on a porch. As Quan was playing he grabbed a hold of me and kinda wrapped his little body around me.....obviously I didn't want to play because I kept trying to push him away telling him to move......and for some reason....telling him to wake up.....wake up.......well....I guess I pushed the little boy too hard because before I knew it....I pushed him off the porch.....y'all my heart was about to stop in the dream.....I was distraught....talk about scared.....and panicked...... well.... when I did come to myself (we all have to come to ourselves) and looked over the side of the porch....low and behold Quan had not fallen to the ground but actually.... somehow....NO....by The Grace of God.....he was hanging by the back of his shirt...on a fence....WHEW!!

After Quan was taken down (and I don't know how he got down)....but afterwards he came to me.....the little boy....with smiles all over his face....started telling me how good God was and how as he was falling......he remembered THE WORD that was spoken into his life! WOW!!!! I Love how The Lord orchestrates and confirms what has been placed on my heart because just as I checked my emails this morning Sis. Sharon's devotional gave confirmation!

People of God.......GOD'S EYES ARE ON THE SPARROW......HE'S WATCHING OVER US.... OVER OUR CHILDREN.... PROTECTING THEM FROM DANGERS SEEN AND UNSEEN..... HE'S WATCHING OVER THEM.....LEADING AND GUIDING THEIR FOOTSTEPS ALL THE WAY.....RATHER THEY REALIZE IT OR NOT......REMEMBER HOW YOU WERE WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD...... YOU CAME TO YOURSELF DIDN'T YOU.....JUST LET THEM GO IN JESUS' NAME....... ALLOW THE BLOOD OF JESUS TO COVER THEM...PROTECT THEM.....ALLOW THE WORD OF GOD THEY HAVE BEEN TAUGHT....SPOKEN INTO THEIR LIVES... ALLOW THE WORD TO BRING THEM BACK HOME......WHILE YOU HAVE THE CHANCE..... JUST KEEP TRAINING THEM.......THEY MIGHT GO ASTRAY FOR A MINUTE.......BUT SOONER OR LATER....BY AND BY.......THEY WILL WAKE UP....AND LIKE THE PRODIGAL SON....... THEY WILL COME HOME.........AND YOU'LL SEE AND THEY'LL TELL YOU..... YOUR WORK WAS NOT IN VAIN......SO STOP WORRYING.....STOP FRETTING.....GIVE THAT CHILD OR THOSE CHILDREN TO GOD.......LET GOD HAVE HIS WAY IN THEIR LIFE..... YOU CAN'T PREVENT THE FALL......THE FALL IS INEVITABLE....YOU CAN HOWEVER BE THERE AFTER THE FALL WITH STRETCHED OUT ARMS.....JUST AS CHRIST RECEIVED YOU WHEN YOU WERE LOST.....RECEIVE YOUR CHILD WITH LOVE......JUST LET GO....AND LET GOD AND BELIEVE.......THEY ARE SAFE IN HIS ARMS!!!

You are already Blessed so be Encouraged....
