• Parasites Are More Common Than Many People Realize

    When I first started learning about parasites and detoxification, I was surprised by how significant parasitic infections still are worldwide.

    Research indexed in PubMed shows that certain parasitic infections can cause serious disease, including damage to the liver and bile ducts. Some specific parasites are even associated with an increased risk of certain cancers.

    But here's where I think we need to be careful: not every unexplained symptom means someone has parasites.

    Symptoms that can occur with some parasitic infections include:

    • Digestive problems
    • Fatigue
    • Abdominal discomfort
    • Skin irritation or itching
    • Changes in appetite or weight
    • Nutritional deficiencies

    The symptoms can vary considerably depending on the type of parasite and where the infection occurs.

    One of the biggest things I've learned is how important it is to support the body's natural elimination systems—especially the liver, kidneys, digestive tract, and regular bowel function.

    I also believe in reducing unnecessary exposure to environmental toxins and being intentional about what we put into and onto our bodies.

    For me, learning more about detoxification and parasite protocols changed the way I think about supporting overall wellness. Rather than simply chasing individual symptoms, I prefer looking at the bigger picture and supporting the systems the body already uses to protect and eliminate waste.

    Important: Parasite infections should be properly evaluated and treated when present. "Parasite cleansing" isn't a substitute for medical testing or appropriate treatment.

    If you're curious about the detox protocol I personally use and where I start, comment DETOX or send me a message.

  • Daily Devotional
    Be full of compassion.

    Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. Psalm 112:4

    Wherever there is an impulse of love and sympathy, wherever the heart reaches out to bless and uplift others, there is revealed the working of God’s Holy Spirit. In the depths of heathenism men who have had no knowledge of the written law of God, who have never even heard the name of Christ, have been kind to His servants, protecting them at the risk of their own lives. Their acts show the working of a divine power. The Holy Spirit has implanted the grace of Christ in the heart of the savage, quickening his sympathies contrary to his nature, contrary to his education....

    Christ is seeking to uplift all who will be lifted to companionship with Himself, that we may be one with Him as He is one with the Father. He permits us to come in contact with suffering and calamity in order to call us out of our selfishness; He seeks to develop in us the attributes of His character—compassion, tenderness, and love. By accepting this work of ministry we place ourselves in His school, to be fitted for the courts of God....

    By cooperating with heavenly beings in their work on earth, we are preparing for their companionship in heaven. “Ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation,” angels in heaven will welcome those who on earth have lived “not to be ministered unto, but to minister.” In this blessed companionship we shall learn, to our eternal joy, all that is wrapped up in the question, “Who is my neighbor?”

    *****

    Every act of love, every word of kindness, every prayer in behalf of the suffering and oppressed, is reported before the eternal throne and placed on heaven’s imperishable record. [238]

  • Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

    Acts 4:12 ɴᴋᴊᴠ

    Salvation is offered to all, but not all are convinced they need to be saved. Saved from what, they might say? In Acts 16 we read of Paul and Silas chained in a prison, and they were being watched by a jailer who had been ordered to “keep them securely” (Acts 16:23). The jailer may not have had any visible chains, but he was the one in need of salvation, not Paul and Silas. The shackles of sin are very real, and apart from Christ we are all slaves of sin (Jn. 8:34). It took an earthquake for the jailer to come to his senses and ask the question, “what must I do to be saved?”

    Though they had not committed a crime, Paul and Silas had been beaten and thrown into prison while they waited for a verdict from the officials. In contrast, the jailer’s verdict had already been pronounced concerning his sin: the punishment was death. Yet he was allowed to continue his daily affairs until the execution of his sentence. What could be done to save him from this predicament?

    We are all guilty sinners wandering around at risk of reoffending, and the answer is the same for us as it was for the jailer: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31). There is coming a day when condemnation will fall on all those who have sinned, but there is “no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Rom. 8:1).

    Christ was the only sinless Person, and He took pity on us and offered Himself as a substitute, so that we might be set free. There is nothing you can do, but the only answer to your guilt is something that has already been done. The Lord Jesus Christ died so that you can have everlasting life: “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved” (Jn. 3:17).

  • Dear Father,

    You instructed a young prophet, saying, “Thou shalt eat no bread, nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest.” But there was an old prophet who came and misled him, saying, “I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the LORD, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water.” But he lied to him. This very act cost the young prophet his life.

    The unsettling part of this story is that the Scripture refers to a man who caused the downfall of another in the same field he operated, a prophet! I strongly believe in and advocate for mentorship, and a model who has gone before us often has greater influence on our decisions, especially when its a trusted voice. Today, I am concerned about people we look up to, whose words of direction and contributions to our assignment, although genuine, may lead us astray.

    I think of those moments in our destiny when, in what seems like a dilemma, we must choose between obedience to You and what appears to be rebellion against a trusted voice. And like the younger prophet, we may be faced with the risk of letting our guard down. How can we, in such situations, know which way to go? Especially when what they talk us into is not bad in itself. If a man who clearly heard You fell victim, how can we trust our own discernment?

    I do not have all the answers, Father. But I have developed a pattern: whenever I experience contradictions, to always check back with You. I believe in mentorship, but I also believe that every trusted voice may not always speak a trusted word.

  • Dear Father,

    Edmund Gettier, a philosopher, proposed an addition to the concept of epistemology-- the study of knowledge, when he argued that a person can believe something without knowing it, but no one can claim to know something without believing it. How true is this of humanity? There is also a branch of epistemology called empiricism, which supports the idea that the most reliable source of human knowledge is experience or sensory perceptions. My problem with this view is that it limits the truth of humanity’s existence to what is attainable in his lifetime.

    I was reminded of Thomas, who, when the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” responded, “Unless I see the nail marks in His hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.” The issue, however, lies not in the limitations that exist in obtaining the experience needed for an unwavering belief in You, but in how willing we are to pay the price to know what we have always believed.

    It is true that many of us are like Thomas, with certain doubts and confusions, believing in Jesus but not all that He purports to represent. Perhaps this is what Edmund communicates: that there is a risk in believing when sufficient knowledge is lacking. Isn’t this one of the reasons we struggle with our faith? Isn’t this the reason we doubt-- asking questions without necessarily seeking answers?

    Today, I took it upon myself to reflect on how much I have put into knowing all that I believe about You.

  • A Nugget of Truth.
    GOD’S WARNING AGAINST QUICK-PROFIT INVESTMENTS, WHAT CAN MONEY STEAL BEFORE IT IS EVER LOST?

    “He that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” — Proverbs 28:20

    God does not condemn honest business, careful saving, or wise investment.

    He warns against speculation—reckless ventures driven by haste, greed, excitement, and the dream of wealth without patient labor.

    The greatest danger is not an empty account.

    It is a heart emptied of Christ.

    Inspiration warns that the feverish desire to become rich quickly is contrary to the faith God’s people profess.
    ---

    ① IT AWAKENS A HUNGER MONEY CANNOT SATISFY

    Speculation whispers:

    “One more gain—then I will have enough.”

    But covetousness never says, “Enough.”

    “They that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare.” — 1 Timothy 6:9

    When money becomes necessary for peace, identity, or security—

    Christ is no longer treated as sufficient.
    ---

    ② IT REPLACES FAITH WITH FINANCIAL EXCITEMENT

    Faith asks:

    “Lord, what is Your will?”

    Greed asks:

    “How quickly can this multiply?”

    Soon charts are watched more carefully than Scripture.

    Prayer becomes hurried.

    Family worship weakens.

    Mission is postponed.

    “Trust… not in uncertain riches, but in the living God.” — 1 Timothy 6:17

    Satan need not make us openly deny Christ—

    only too absorbed in gain to walk closely with Him.
    ---

    ③ IT RISKS THE MASTER’S PROPERTY

    Everything belongs to Christ.

    We are stewards—not owners.

    “It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2

    Speculation treats God’s entrusted means as though no account must be given.

    Stewardship asks, “How can this serve Christ?”

    Greed asks, “How much can this serve me?”

    Every peso carries a responsibility.
    ---

    ④ IT PROMISES FREEDOM—BUT OFTEN CREATES BONDAGE

    Quick-profit ventures may begin with hope—

    then produce anxiety, secrecy, debt, sleeplessness, damaged homes, and desperate attempts to recover losses.

    Inspiration warns that speculative enterprises become a snare and may bring financial and spiritual ruin.

    Failure can empty the pocket.

    Success can enthrone greed.

    The worst bankruptcy is not financial.

    It is spiritual.
    ---

    ⑤ IT TRAINS THE CONSCIENCE TO COMPROMISE

    When profit rules the heart, conviction becomes negotiable.

    Truth may be softened.

    Dishonesty may be excused.

    Giving may feel like loss.

    The Sabbath may become inconvenient.

    “Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” — Matthew 6:24

    Money is a useful servant—

    but a merciless master.

    A venture may earn greatly and still destroy the soul.

    “What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” — Mark 8:36
    ---

    ⑥ GOD’S WAY BUILDS BOTH PROVISION AND CHARACTER

    God’s path is not reckless haste, but:

    honest labor, patient diligence, careful planning, contentment, generosity, integrity, and trust in His providence.

    “Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.” — Proverbs 13:11

    Speculation wants the harvest without cultivation—

    the reward without discipline,

    the crown without the cross.

    But God is preparing more than our finances.

    He is preparing our characters for eternity.
    ---

    CHRIST IS THE TREASURE THAT CANNOT COLLAPSE

    Jesus did not grasp for gain.

    He surrendered everything to save us.

    “Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty might be rich.” — 2 Corinthians 8:9

    He exchanged heaven’s glory for Bethlehem’s poverty—

    and Calvary’s cross for our eternal life.

    No earthly return can equal the riches found in Christ.

    Therefore:

    Work honestly.
    Plan wisely.
    Reject greed-driven risk.
    Live within your means.
    Give generously.
    Seek Christ first.

    “Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven.” — Matthew 6:20

    The safest investment is not the one promising the fastest return.

    It is the one you can place before Jesus with a clear conscience, manage without covetousness, use to bless others, and explain faithfully in the judgment.

    Beloved, before asking,

    “How much can I earn?”

    Ask:

    “Will this strengthen my faith and serve Christ—or quietly make money my master?”

    A fortune gained while faith is lost is not profit. It is eternal bankruptcy.

    ⑥ GOD’S WAY BUILDS BOTH PROVISION AND CHARACTER
