Spirit Filled Christianity 101

Here is a plain and simple definition of what it means to be a spirit filled Christian… It’s not a matter of whether or not you speak in tongues; it’s a matter of are you filled up enough with the Holy Ghost that He just spills out out of you everywhere you go and with everyone you meet🕊️

Here I am Lord...send me!!!

That sounds so spiritual-so dynamic-so awe inspiring. BUT are we willing to SPEAK up for HIM? Are we willing to speak the truth in love even if it means people may misunderstand or reject you? Are we really willing to DO what HE says to do even if it means sacrificing our time, pride, effort and wills? Are we really willing to GO where HE SENDS us? It's usually never at a convenient time either; sometimes a very unpleasant place too.

What if if it's a jail cell, a hospital room, to go help a next door neighbor, minister at a homeless shelter, give an offering for a needy child, talk to and minister to a beggar on the sidewalk, start a blog/ YouTube Channel? What if He doesn't send you to a PULPIT? Would you still serve Him for free?

"And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.” And he said, “Go, and say to this people...
Isaiah 6: 8-9Here I am Lord...send me!!!

The Foibles of Familiarity

Not everyone needs to have access to the innermost places of our lives—whether we are ministers or simply navigating friendships. Healthy relationships require wisdom and appropriate boundaries.

Familiarity can sometimes change the way people see one another. The closer we become, the more likely we are to see each other's humanity—our weaknesses, personality quirks, faults, and imperfections. None of us is exempt from them.
Sometimes we can unintentionally idealize or romanticize people, particularly those we respect in ministry. We develop an image of what we think a minister, leader, or even a close friend should look like. Then, when that person disappoints us, disagrees with us, or does something we find offensive, our admiration can quickly turn into disillusionment—and sometimes even rejection.

Maturity allows us to see people realistically rather than idealistically. We can recognize someone's imperfections without discarding the entire relationship because they failed to meet an expectation we placed upon them.

This is one reason wisdom and discernment are necessary when determining who we allow into our closest circles. We can love people, serve people, minister to people, and value people without giving everyone the same degree of access to our personal lives.

Love can be extended to everyone. Intimacy and trust, however, are developed over time and trust can be broken easily. Therefore, it takes time to rebuild it.

Pixie Dust Christianity or Discipleship?

The word of God became flesh, and we beheld His glory. (John 1). God‘s word must become flesh in us too so that others can see Christ in the earth so that no flesh should glory in His presence.

We can’t treat God‘s word like pixie dust or a magic formula that we pray it or say it and bam it happens - just like that. 🫰🏼

There’s a process of the word becoming flesh in us as His Ambassadors. Without the word of God becoming flesh in us, “Church” can look like a magic show or a circus. Sadly that’s how it’s being portrayed by some today. 
Anything that’s living will grow. It will have a healthy root system and produce healthy fruit. But once the root system becomes corrupted or branches get detached from the vine, it stops growing and the branches will wither and die.

But if you are truly in Christ you never stop growing. We never stop needing to be sanctified or changed in an area(s). Over and over again the Lord is faithful to complete the work He begins in us in prune back, dead branches that come out of our flesh. As such, there are no shortcuts to discipleship and spiritual maturity. 

Here’s a simple but profound four step process that I believe the Lord has taught me over the years. I am still a work in progress. This is for me too. 

Abiding in the Vine-Growing in God‘s word (John 15)

1. Ingest it-read it.
2. Digest it-meditate on it and STUDY the Word.
3. Test it-live it and walk it out even when it’s hard. Don’t let the word just stay in your head as “knowledge”. Let it get in your heart and live it out loud.  This is where the proverbial “rubber meets the road.”
4. Manifest it-your spiritual healthand life will reflect how much of the word of God has become part of who you are.

That was free! You’re welcome!🙏🏼✝️😉😍

Charismatic Kids Acting Like Preachers....

I'm going to say what I'm going to say here satirically ok?
I'm a 72 year old grandma who's seen enough Charismania to last two lifetimes. I know a child when I see one.

Haven't we all had just about enough of charismatic charades posing as gospel ministry? The list of spoiled whining preachers is too long to name here. There's nothing like playing "dodge ball" with accountability. We can't play "hide and seek" with Jesus but for so long until sin finds you out.

The kind of sin and foolishness we see some "grown folks" doing with the title of prophet, pastor, apostle, teacher, preacher or what have you, you would expect from a child(ren) who got caught lying, steeling, cheating, bullying and beating up another kid on the playground, playing "show and tell" with their privates, taking candy from the checkout counter or cheating on a test etc.

"When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things..."1 Corinthians 13: 11

All the while little Johnny denied he did anything wrong and tells Mommy, Daddy or teacher:

1. "I didn't do it" OR
2. "Here’s why I did it teacher" OR
3. "I'm sorry Daddy” (but not be sorry enough to stop the bad behavior/ sin) OR
4. Blame the other kids for "tattling" on him OR
5. All of the above plus more.

Honestly, it's become pretty evident that some grown-ups need a good whooping. At this point that's up to God, because they sure aren't listening to wisdom or even common sense. He may use civil authorities to discipline them because they don't seem to listen to the truth. See Romans 13.

The rod of correction drives foolishness out of the heart of a child...but a prideful childish "grown up" heart is nearly impossible to correct-truth be told. That is why we see so much exposure being revealed now...to protect and rescue his sheep.

Cry-Baby preachers can tell all their excuses to the police if/ when they take them in for questioning. They can go ahead and get a good defense attorney to “dumb down” their crimes as they lie before the jury and God using tithing money collected in their coffers. But there is a day coming when we will all stand before "The Judge" and there won't be any lying there!

So many today being called out are completely CHILDISH and CARNAL in their attitudes and behaviors. This is pathetic and there is no excuse for any minister to be conducting themselves in this manner and showing a complete lack of integrity.

Honestly some of them need to be in jail. Their credibility was flushed down the drain long before the truth came to light. If we are not credible before God, how can we be credible before man?

A grown up, with a "child's" mentality steeped in stubbornness and pride is hard to convince. As we used to say in Virginia while growing up, "Lord Have Mercy." And I mean it. Lord show these people mercy but at the same time justice for all, in Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Truth Be Told!

Joni Lamb a year and a half later…😔

I have been looking for this prophetic word The Lord gave me in March of 2025. I couldn’t find it despite going through all of my backup hard drives and paper notes that I keep filed away.

A pastor friend asked me about it whom I shared it with as a matter of prayer when God gave me the dream. I couldn’t find it then either.

Ironically, it popped up in my TikTok feed today because someone made a comment on it. You can see the date stamp for yourself to verify what was going to happen if there was no repentance. Trust me when I tell you that I, along with many others prayed for her to repent. 

As you know, sadly, Joni Lamb passed away May 7, 2026. Many truth tellers and podcasters continued to address Joni through emails, and social media platforms urging her to do the right thing concerning her family situation, her financial dealings, and her marriage to Doug Weiss who divorced his wife after Joni was widowed in order to marry her. 

We can only hope she repented.  There have been reports that she did and we praise God if that in fact happened. At the same time it cannot erase the damage that was done and a total lack of responsibility she exhibited toward her immediate family and the Daystar dynasty.

I am posting this for your consideration. You may ask, “Why are you posting this, Mary Ann, a year and a half after you you had this dream and four months after she passed away? That’s a valid question. The best way I can answer that is this: I couldn’t find the prophetic word until today. I did originally post it on FB and YT back in March of 2025 when I got the word but took it down out of fear or thinking no one would pay any attention to it. Ironically, I forgot that it was still on TikTok.

I’m still growing and developing in the prophetic, and learning how to stand in humility, meekness and accountability when I feel like I get a word from the Lord.  Also, His timing is very important when releasing a word and record-keeping and date stamping things are just as important.

This may just serve as another receipt or record of numerous warnings that went out to our sister in Christ not only through social media platforms and truth tellers but close associates and family members too. 

Hopefully this may serve as an admonition to those who are being “called out” in leadership positions for egregious sins yet refuse to repent. The writing is on the wall.

We must pay attention to God‘s correction or else we can suffer the consequences of His hand of discipline, which can be very severe when a “neck becomes stiff.”

When the people of God break God‘s laws repeatedly (especially those in positions of spiritual leadership) without repentance, He will warn them through sometimes “ordinary” believers-usually “unknowns”. That seems to be a pattern you can find all throughout scripture.

If they refuse to listen or take heed, not only is it very foolish but can result in very undesirable results.

That goes for any of us - but those who stand in positions of leadership as “teachers” of the word have a greater condemnation. 😔
